| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Whoa, a nine year timeskip, this is probably the largest one I've seen. That detective sure is wierd =P Also, I found the ending to quite interesting, "Monster is coming", I wonder what that meant, and what will happen now. |
| I'm confused about the ending too. I'm worried about where this show is going... I hope it doesn't have a cheesy supernatural twist to it, like Death Note. I rather like the realistic slice of life drama that's been present in it so far. |
| shit. VERY nice pace. if this keeps up for the next 71 episodes it'll be really epic. |
| It`s already 3:19 but I still can`t force myself to stop watching and go to bed... At 7 I must get up and go to work! Nooo... This anime worths it! |
| So things worked out for Dr. Tenma, and that candy that they ate poisoned them, I guess you should be trying to profit from other people's misfortune. |
| Didn't expect a nine year timeskip. So the murder case at the hostpital still hasn't made any progress.. I wonder what happened to those twins.. "Monster is coming." :O Interesting, interesting! I'm loving this! |

| Okay was hoping for Kenzo to slap that bitch in the face, after she trew away the ring she wanted to come back with him? Also his life was totally destroyed for a period of time, at least hes happy after so long. 9 years timeskip thats really a long timeskip. I don't know where this is going yet but Im liking it. |
| Rest assured the "Monster" is not supernatural...that's why this show is better than Death Note. |
 |
| Wow, I am really intrigued. But it seems weird that in 9 years the boy didn't get any older.... Or am I mistaking it for some other boy? He seemed similar. And still had his head bandaged. |
| No sig :( |

| Very Nice, but there are no blue traffic lieghts in Germany. It's Red - Yellow - Green. And I presune the murderer and the monster ist the boy which was rescued in the last episodes. And maybe his sister too. |
| Don't worry Mamiko Noto, I still love you even though you don't know how to fly a kite. |

| I think those wierd twins might be this "monster". |
| So glad he said no to her |

| That b***h Eva targets only chiefs of surgery?? That inspector is creepy indeed. And that monster..What might it be... |
 |
| the docs got the good life now The dectectve is a interseting character |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Holy shitttttttt. Very nice pace. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| The doctor still seems melancholy. Odd. He's successful, has girls fawning over him, his peers are envious of him and interns hold him in high regard. Perhaps Donnie Darko was right, some people are just born with tragedy in their blood. |
 |
| Tenma looks pretty much the same after 9 years. |
| Didn't think it'd be such a huge time skip and I love the supsense. |
| Tenma got really lucky. Three people dead but the path to someone's bright future opened again. And that Eva has no shame at all, or maybe it's just her parasitic nature? To take Tenma for a fool is beyond cynic... Whatever, life goes on and all bad things remains in the past. Or maybe not. Btw, tt would be surprising if that 'monster' would be not a boy saved by Tenma. |
| One of the best things about Monster is that it takes a very slow pace and sets the mood and characters up really well. This episode is a great example of that. |
| "Yes, I have been deprived of emotion. But not completely. Whoever did it, botched the job." - Geralt of Rivia |
| The kite scene was so beautiful <3 But this "monster" is really scaring me D: And it's like 3 am. Man, I should go to bed, but this is just too good. |
| I like this anime but it's too slow paced... |
 |
| thank god he left the bitch! Would have been so pissed if he decided to accept the "lets start fresh" bs. Also the ending song is pretty creepy, not gonna lie. |
 |
| Well now hospital people is going to feel it also Monster! About Episode: I knew someone was going to tell Tenma what happened yesterday night. But it couldn't been Tenma at least I don't believe so because he was so drunk. It has something to do with those twins. Funeral part was kind of sad I mean Tenma can still accept that Director's nature and it just describes well how he cared for him even though he was just a evil man. So 9-years timeskip didn't expected that and Rungus named investigator haha that hobby of his is kind of cool. Analyzing situation with shaking hand. Haha nice job Urasawa.So those candies were poisoned I see but were Director got those candies it's unsolved yet. But that investigator is wrong it's not Tenma and I still belive it's Johan. But what was that man escaping well don't know. Haha Tenma did right choice when Eva asked to start over with everything just walking way without saying anything haha :DD And those twins where are they now?? Yeah ED kind of getting creepy too. Nice Episode 5/5 |

| Loved the 9 year time skip. Time for him to relax his mind and slow down the pace of the story rather than a frantic "I didn't do it!" setup. Sucks it seems to be taking a predictable path... |
| freaky and creepy detective....monster is coming...slowly and graduately this anime is absorbing me in it's mystyreous atmosphere...I hope it'll be interesting till the end |
 |
| I'm really glad he turned Eva down, to me she just seemed like a money grabber, or someone after power. She got rid of him when he was demoted, but then minute he was promoted, she wanted him back. Yeah... Oh and I really loved the scene with the kite. :) |
| What was the point of the timeskip exactly? Well, nevermind. That detective seems like an interesting character. Also that "monster is coming" made me curious. |
 |
| Monster... is coming... Shivers! Slow pace but great dialogues. And some sort of uneasiness also. I like this series already, it so realistic in comparison to other animes. |
| rooaroaoraoroaoroaroaoraoroaoror Good episode, the doctor still looks young after 9 years. |

| Monster is coming? why do i have this feeling that the monster person will be one of my fav charecters? :D |
| wow amazing episode :D yeah it really does cast you suspicion the moment the chairman and other doctors died and Tenma is suddenly became the chief out of nowhere. yeah the deaths of the doctors has something to do with the twins(they still haven't been found?!?!) shame but you deserve that Eva. and woah a 9 year gap O___O that feels soo far!! that Lunge guy is still in the case despite 9 years now!?!?! guess he won't stop till he solves everything. he kinda reminds me of Gouda from Ghost in the Shell SAC 2nd GiG!! even has a similar face. i'm curious what's this monster and how it kills it's victims silently and swiftly. interesting stuff!! can't wait for more episodes!!!! |
| I didn't feel this episode as well as the first two. The new character (the detective) looks really promising, but other than that... I guess the 9 year gap was a bit excessive and didn't seem to me like that amount of time had happened. Maybe because the characters look the same, except for the nurse lol. Other than that, Tenma is a very solid main character (that scene with Eva was really great. I still think that he felt something for her) and that alone keeps the interest on the stuff, which looks very promising with the "Monster is coming" cliffhanger. |
| 74 episodes, 3 episodes in and we get a 9 year time skip!? Must be a new record. LOL The "monster" is coming. |
 |
| Somehow I was expecting Tenma to be the spineless type. But we're in episode 3 and he's already proved himself strong. Quickest character development I remember seeing. Honestly, I wasn't expecting him take Eva back. But just seeing his reaction was just all the more satisfying. Eva's a GOO~L Digger. Also, nice suspenseful ending. Wonder what he meant by the Monster. |
| Looks like all the characters have been arranged to play. So engaging, but I'm sleepy. Too bad. |
"Deep." |
| Right off the bat, I'm impressed. Loving the drama and the characters. i've great expectations for this show. |
| Fight Club > Anime Scott Pilgrim > Manga Death Cab for Cutie > Yuki Kajura "Who'd you rather be? The Beatles or The Rolling Stones?" MY REVIEWS! READ THEM. http://myanimelist.net/profile/StillSwingin007/reviews |
| I feel like a dick but when Eva was crying at the funeral I just thought "and the pig snorts in fury when its trowel is no longer filled." But you know what? Her trying to get back with Tenma just furthers my point, I cheered when he pulled his hand back. Wow that second half of the episode took an unexpected turn. I thought Tenma would get pinned for the blame right away, but I'm starting to see how it's coming back for him with that detective. That ending was really eerie, just the build up of noises and the expression on Junkers' face. |
 |
| "9 year timeskip" well that escalated quickly. Anyways, the pace is really great. Can't help but be addicted to this so far. The suspense. |
| "If you reject me, I'll blast a hole in you!" Kanzaki H. Aria Just kidding.  |
| lol that whore thought she could come crawling back disgusting thank god he didn't take her back |

| I've heard this series is depressing, but the last episode and a half was so satisfying. I loved the death by candy thing because those three people were horrible. Best of all though was the rejection of his ex fiancée after she tried to con him into taking her back only because she'd heard of his promotion. |
