| YES! Called it so hard! Also, every "romantic" moment that Suk spent with "Nina" is now incredibly awkward. |
"You either die an Ashita no Joe, or you live long enough to see yourself become a Naruto."  |
| So that's why this thread has so many more posts than the others. Johan is one hell of a villain. |
| WTF! |
 |
| Damn.. as soon as the wig came off I was just like I FUCKING KNEW IT. This show doesn't cease to impress though, holy shit |
| What the... I'm not ready for this. |
| Well, that's stupid. |
LoneWolf said: @Josh makes me sad to call myself Canadian. |
| HA! I saw that coming.. I knew that Johann disguised as Anna since Anna should be gone with Dieter (and Anna won't shoot anyone) |
| 5/5 |
 |
| Woah! Didn't see it coming but it was well foreshadowed (candy murder, the walk with the people like johan with the hookers, the tattics of Johan to get something or to get to someone and other things that i don't remeber now). Wonder how will all end with Johan, the cop and Grimmer. Also, what is Tenma doing now? Great episode and great anime! |
| what the fack lol i thought it was weird anna being in czech but i guess she wasnt... i guess that makes a little bit of sense |
| That was unexpected. Johan really does look like his sister lol That explains why Deter isn’t with Anna. |
 |
| WHATTT?! A truly meritable episode. I had my doubts whether that person was Anna or not, but I certainly wasn't expecting that! |

insan3Inquisitor said: Haha you gotta hate that!This would have been a great twist if some bastard hadn't ruined it for me in the forums a couple of episodes back. |
| I had a hunch that it was Johan, I swear to god. That wasn't like Nina at all. She wouldn't kill people so heartlessly like this, but I was still tricked because I thought maybe she was like Johan after all. Maybe a monster was awakened inside her as well or something. At the end of the episode though I was literally clapping and laughing for a few more minutes after the episode (right before writing this reply). Oh man, I'm gonna love the rest of this show, I just know it. |
| ahah not expecting this... But the voice though... How did he do it? I'm still trying to believe it if you ask me. |

| To this day, no series has been able to evoke the same utterly perplexing awe as that twist ending right there. And nothing ever will. (1,000,000/5) |
Algirdyz said: Why did Johan come to Prague? He read the book, and remembered his past. Now why would he come back? To meet his mother? That would not explain his current actions. To erase his past would probably be the best option. Johan is smart enough to understand that everyone knows about him collapsing after reading the book. And everyone knows the clues. The three frogs and that bridge. He might be afraid of Tenma or someone else finding out his weakness. i think my iq dropped a little while reading ur bs |

| Damn, I didn't expect that. That was some plot twist. I thought it was Nina/Anna meeting with the detective, while the mother was committing the murders for some reason. But no, it's all Johan. I'm impressed. |
 "It's a conversation through instruments. A miracle that creates harmony. In that moment, music transcends words." - Miyazono Kaori "Laziness is the mother of all bad habits. But ultimately she is a mother and we should respect her." - Nara Shikamaru "You think you're special? You're not. Everyone lies, everyone hides things... Nobody makes it through this life being completely honest." - Orihara Izaya |
| My jaw dropped at that ending, that was the quite the twist. Although there were some telltale signs aside from the murders, like how instead of introducing herself as Nina like she always does to strangers she claimed to have no name and then the way she finally told Suk that her name was Anna instead of Nina which confirmed my suspicion. Still, didn't see Johan coming at all. |
| Holy shiiiiiiiit that was amazing. Best ending of the series so far. |
 |
| Damn, I knew something was definitely off with Nina to the point I doubted she was the real one. As soon as she(he) entered the house and started walking upstairs, I knew she was not Nina and the act of cross-dressing did pop into my mind. What an episode O_O Is there a possibility was Johan was cross-dressing before as well? |
| Brooo Johan most deadliest trap. Should have seen this coming if I think about it carefully. |
 |
| I was worried after ep 37 that quality might be about to drop but all the episodes since then have been really good and oh my god THIS. THIS. Faith completely restored. If I had just heard about it I probably would've said it sounded dumb, but it was done so well that it was just plain awesome. |
 |
| I deserve a cookie for having thought of this before the show revealed it. Johan's legs are apparently that womanly though.. xD |
| That was amazing. So obvious yet didn't see it coming at all. |
| I don't buy it, no amount of acting can change someone's facial appearance and body to a perfect imitation of the opposite sex, very feminine version as well might I add... But what a twist! ___ On a quick rewatch I realised I was not nearly as observant as I thought. The fake Anna's eyes seem more angular and smaller in proportion to the face, the proportions of the mouth, nose and eyebrows are also minutely different it seems to me. So far, this is by far the episode I'm most impressed with, even setting up Johan's relatively high pitched voice was a gamble (I did not like it) that was paid off patiently, everything clicks and gels. Brilliant stuff. |

| I'm glad to see Grimmer again, he even gave Suk the key. Suk is very naive, he tells everything to a total stranger considering he didn't even knew her/his name, isn't that classified info in the first place? This episode was all about those few seconds in the end, I've never seen such a creepy smile in my life. |
 |
| i thought of the possibility of it being Johan but it doesn't make any sense....how did he change his voice and body? does he really have such feminine figure? even his face changed, what is happening? anyways, he got some nice legs. good for you Johan |

| OH MY GOD I will give Monster a 10/10 for this plot twist Is it just me or is Suk getting more stupid? |
Wait, did you just say that Jojo is shit?  |
| What a nice plot twist! And I thought previously, why the hell Nina is acting differently, killing and poisoning people. Well, this is getting a lot more interesting! |
| WoW, Very nice twist, I thought there was something weird, Johan is the best character in the show confirmed. Excellent Episode. |
| WHAT THE FUCK WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK HOLY SHIT THAT CREEPY SMILE AT THE END. JOHAN WTF ALSO THAT DETECTIVE IS IN LOVE WITH A GUY ALSO JOHAN WTF HOLY CRAP THIS EPISODE JUST BLEW MY MIND. |
 |
| I knew Johan was dressed as Nina but I was still somewhat fooled. I thought the Nina at the bar was the real one and Johan was doing stuff on the side dressed as Nina. |
| Shit. Me still chanting 'what the fuck' under my breath five minutes after the reveal. That was one plot twist that I did not see coming.The question of why Deiter wasn't with her vaguely drifted into my mind but left as quietly as it came. And the whiskey bonbons. And the sudden willingness to kill. Also, how the hell did he manage to pull off that DRESS? And now Suk's prolly gonna die soon. Poor guy. Being betrayed by everyone. Including the 'woman' he fell for. Even if Johan doesn't do him in somehow, I wouldn't blame him if he just offed himself at this point. |
 |
| WUT!?!? Johan crossdressing as Anna/Nina is not something I saw coming. The twist is a bit of astrech and probably works better in written from, but it was still well done nonetheless. Suk is now probably done for as well. |
| WHAAATTTTTTTTTTT THE FUCCKKKKKKKKK HOLYYYY MOTHER OF GOD NO FUCKIN WAYYYY I WAS NOT READDDYYYY FOR THIS SHIT!!!!! |
