Holy cow. I really shouldn't have stopped reading this series. These volumes have introduced the most likable psychopath I have never met, and contained a plot twist that caught me totally off guard (reading it was somewhat akin to being slapped upside the head with a wet squirrel). Excellent.
Total volumes of manga I have read in my lifetime: 176
I've probably said this before, so if so, just ignore me, but if you're enjoying Monster, definitely, definitely check out 20th Century Boys (unless, of course, you already have!). It's by Urasawa and has just been released in the States recently, and it's wonderful!
Also, I read vol. 2 of Pluto today, which is also wonderful. I'm curious to see where this series will go, as I've never read the original source material before. Really interesting and well-written, though!
