Monster

Hello everyone! Today I'll tell you about a classic I recently finished. This manga, Monster consist of 18 volumes so I've been thinking for a long time if I really wanted to start reading it...since it would take so much time. However now I'm very glad i decided to read it anyway. It's written by one of my now favourite mangakas Naoki Urasawa. At first I did'nt think much of it, but when the story progressed I realised why people call this a masterpiece. The story is....amazing. It's explained in a very easy way but the story is still very complicated and a lot of characters you meet return in different events and it's just amazing..amazing amazing. This is one of the best manga I've ever read ...for real this time. You never get tired of it and the suspense is killing good and the story, the characters, everything is so well written! If Monster was a novel instead of a manga I would still love it, cause...the story is amazing and the art is unique in it's own way and very fitting for the series. I like the fact that he can draw people so personally. In many manga you read everyone you meet pretty much look the same except maybe hair, height or cloths, but EVERYONE and then I really mean EVERYONE in this manga have their own unique looks and that helps very much in overlooking all the different characters.

Monster is a masterpiece and now I've decided to read 20th Century Boys since it's also a very popular manga by the same mangaka. People I will make a must read list here on the blog and put Monster on top of it. You now I love Naruto and all but some manga you just HAVE to read. Some are entertaining and some are just..classics you have to read. I feel kind of dreadfull that I avoided reading this for 2 years or something.. it was a very bad mistake. It's very long but it just makes you happy since it's so good and the story could be developed in a very nice way.

The manga has an anime aswell. I watched a couple of episodes before I started reading the manga and then regretted not reading it instead and stopped looking at the anime. The anime is very faithful towards the manga and I recommend you to read the manga first and then watch the anime. The anime consist of 74 episodes approximately so.. it's a project if you're not free for a week or so.

Death Note

I suppose you already have seen or read this manga/anime, and that you loved it, if not I will give you a brief summary about its contents here so you can join the death Note lovers club. You have probably already heard of it before but I guess its my duty to recommend it anyway. It's a manga and a anime as you already know and its one of the best. I have'nt read the manga but seen the whole anime and its really good. The story is well planned and well Death Note is one of the most exciting animes I've seen. You cant stop watching. Its deffinetly one of my favourite animes of all time. The story has also been made into film and I've een the first one and its good too. I recommend you though if you're totally unfamiliar with Death Note to watch and read them in this order, manga-anime-movie cause then you wont be bored with either of them. Its always fun to see a manga you've read made into anime, and its always fun to see an anime you've seen into a film. The characters are really nice, and if L was a real life human I would be so into him. You can read the manga here, and search the internet for the anime. Its written by Obha Tsugumi and drawed by Obata Takeshi. I hate dubbed anime but this trailer was the best so.
