In post-war Germany, a moral dilemma unfolds as Kenzo Tenma, a brilliant Japanese neurosurgeon, is forced to choose between saving the life of Johan Liebert, a young orphan on the brink of death, or the mayor of Düsseldorf. Tenma's decision to save Johan sets off a chain of events that destroys his reputation and career, but nine years later, he is given a second chance when he becomes the head of the surgical department. However, his newfound success is short-lived, as a series of gruesome murders takes place throughout Germany, with the culprit being the same monster he saved years ago. As Tenma delves deeper into the mystery, he is faced with questions of good and evil, and the true identity of the monster. In Urasawa Naoki's Monster (1994), the lines between right and wrong are blurred, and the fate of the world may depend on Tenma's journey to uncover the truth. This completed series is an unmissable read for fans of psychological thrillers and crime mysteries.
