Monster Episode 33 Discussion

THIS IS IT! This is the missing link. This is the episode I have been waiting for.This is the episode that ties all the loose plot strings that have accumulated in my mind so far.

Now I am almost 100% sure that Johan does not have a split personality. He is not schizophrenic. All the facts before were a reference to this. There was only one loose string considering this matter. The fact that Johan asked his sister to shoot him in the head. How could I have missed it before. The boy with a cast, Martin, explained everything. Johan wanted to be sure if there is a reason for him to live. He thought that if there was a reason for him to live, if he was actually special, there would be something meant for him to do. And if there was something important meant for him to do, he would not die until he actually accomplishes it. That is why Johan actually asked his sister to shoot him. He though that if he survived it means that he is truly special, he has a role in this world. And the role is something really meaningless. Something that would change entire humanity. It might be to instil Johan's ideology to humans. The episode explained so much.

And there is another thing. The end seems to be puzzling everyone. It was clearly stated, that the book was written by a writer from Czechoslovakia. We also know that Johan and his sister were found on the border of Czechoslovakia and Germany. it is Thus, it is logical to think that it was written by his father or caregiver. Probably the one that changed his entire personality. We might also interpret that his father "build" Johan like this. Seeing his intelligence, he wanted to make Johan perfect and follow his ideology. It is possible that nothing like that happened and his father only abused him, consequently monster was born inside Johan. It might also be a book that is just a random czechoslovakian book, that reminged him of the past which could be similar to the mentioned above.

Now let's get back to Tenma. I can't understand his motives of killing Johan inside the library. Can't he shoot him from some roof outside the library, why inside. It would not only risk his life literally or legally, which he seems not to care about, but the success of the mission it self. How does Tenma think he will shoot from a sniper there? It is not a pistol. He should be aware that there is a high possibility of guards being there. Whether they were informed about possible threat or not. It is also not like this is the only place he could shoot. There is the whole city. But this is not some kind of silly shounen. This is a really good seinen. And Tenma is not an idiot. He also doesn't rely on his emotions when taking critical logical decisions. Therefore, I am sure he has a good reason for this, or we did not understand his intentions.
