It's rare to see an Anime with such an emotional, beautiful, and impactful story in a dystopian setting like this. It's one of the few times I got a little teary-eyed watching Anime in a long time. In many ways, it's very reminiscent of Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell, and Redline. Although, It feels like they could have expanded the story into multiple seasons because it is somewhat condensed but that would have ruined the impactful ending. There is a deep melancholy at the end, wanting to see more of the universe once the credits roll, but you know that this is it.

If you've heard of Monster, then odds are you've probably heard of the incredible hype surrounding it.For a while, Monster has been the absolute critic's darling of anime, being the poster boy for lofty intellectual types. Because of this, it can be very easy to imagine Monster as being overhyped.
But Monster lives up to every word of the praise it gets.
Monster plays out like a macabre game of cat and mouse in a world that is frighteningly similar to real life.Uncomfortable subjects such as coercive human conditioning and the psychology of the sociopath, morality issues regarding the origin of evil and the value of human life, are horrifyingly, yet engagingly, realized. The protagonist, Dr. Tenma, struggles to fix that which is so remorsefully broken in his world. Monster is a chilling tale rooted in reality, a far cry from the superpowers and supernatural forces found in more detached fantasy series. The writing in Monster is exceptional and truly GOAT

“From the distant north, beyond the frozen sea… They came, bringing with them the black clouds of war.”
This is the tale of Vinland Saga, a sprawling epic penned by Makoto Yukimura that thrusts you into a world drenched in bloody violence and battle-hungry warriors. At least, that is what the manga first introduces readers to. Whereas the anime, produced by Wit Studio with director Shuuhei Yabuta at the helm, decides to take a different approach with the saga by telling its narrative chronologically. Aside from a short battle sequence, viewers aren’t subjected with carnage outright, but a calm and tranquil village on the coast of Iceland untouched by the remnants of war. In doing so, it trades the fast-paced feel of its original story for a more methodical slow burn that fortunately retains enough intrigue and uneasiness to keep it from becoming a tedious watch.
Definitely an anime worth giving a shot.
Great efforts for Studio Wit too.
