Did Viz ever say anything about Monster on dvd? *sigh* (That first box sits alone in my shelf !! ) Regardless, I really loved these episodes. The whole show is one big, fun interesting mystery. Great characters and a truly original premise.

You really hit the nail on the head with that one. FYI: Netflix just started streaming this too. So for those of you who have a subscription, no commercials. It's subtitled. Oh. And you can't find it by typing just Monster. You have to type Naoki Urasawa's Monster for it to pop up. http://movies.netflix.com/Movie/Naoki-Urasawa-s-Monster-Season-1/70178606 Now it's time for me to beat a dead horse....I wish Viz could just release the whole thing (along with Hikaru no Go) in some sort of Limited Edition, premium price set since they've got the whole darn thing done already. I get that they don't have enough support to warrant the 15 episode box set, but it seems like there are enough of us out there who would pay more to own a complete physical release. For those of you in the know, how much would it really cost them to do so? It seems like since they have everything done but the actual DVD menu and encoding that it would be pretty cheap? Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'm curious. |

Well, I want to finish the series, cause I'm told it is soooooo good. It's always compared with death note.
So I bought the first boxset and was not impressed. Cliches abound; uninteresting and off acting. I think every episode had a nurse played by Michelle Ruff. Still, I usually stick through with something... I'd like to see the rest of these dubbed. Argh, now I wish that I hadn't missed the dub on ani-monday. |

Don't worry! MANGAentertainment on YouTube still has all the episodes up and they are all dubbed I believe! http://www.youtube.com/show/monster |

Oh I love Monster!! Especially Grimmer! I own box set one and wish I had the balance of the series on DVD. Thanks for the Manga you tube link! I will download the balance of the series and if it comes out for sale, I'll buy them. I assume it would be 4 more box sets. That's one I want to own forever.

I didn't even know this show had arcs, it just seemed like one long drawn out confrontation. I stopped halfway through since it seemed like the show wasn't going anywhere until the end anyway.

I wish I hadn't been in Korea in 2009. I missed episodes 11-20 myself. |

The main problem with monster is that it's too good for anime fans. They're used to kiddy fantasy stuff like death note and one piece. It's like showing a guy who's used to watching movies like harry potter and transformers a movie like silence of the lambs. Of course they'll be like "this is boring! no supernatural laser throwing abilities? this is just about a serial killer and a detective.. and too much talking (or fillers, yea, any conversation counts as fillers) ew."
Stick to your random shounen animes please. Thanks. |

I love monster I think it is one of the best animes out there. It has genuine emotion and thrill! I found that people who are not fans of anime can get into this as well.

Oh you rock for the pro tip. I just found it on Netflix earlier this month but it was DVD only then. |
