Naoki Urasawa’s unforgettable thriller follows a brilliant doctor’s journey into the darkest depths of the human soul.Johan is a cold and calculating killer with a mysterious past, and brilliant Dr. Kenzo Tenma is the only one who can stop him! Conspiracy and serial murder open the door to a compelling, intricately woven plot in this masterwork of suspense.Everyone faces uncertainty at some point in their lives. Even a brilliant surgeon like Kenzo Tenma is no exception. But there’s no way he could have known that his decision to stop chasing professional success and instead concentrate on his oath to save peoples’ lives would result in the birth of an abomination. The questions of good and evil now take on a terrifyingly real dimension.Years later, in Germany during the tumultuous post-reunification period, middle-aged childless couples are being killed one after another. The serial killer’s identity is known. The reasons why he kills are not. Dr. Tenma sets out on a journey to find the killer’s twin sister, who may hold some clues to solving the enigma of the “Monster.” Review: great storyline - very great manga by naoki urasawa . my first manga, but now there is a problem as the 2 volume is not in stock for a very long time so I am kind of disappointed but a very good manga if you want something new to your life Review: It have stylic yellow tint so don't wirry - Yes, the pages of the Sakamoto Days manga volumes have a slightly yellowish tint, which is a deliberate design choice by the publisher. This is a common practice in manga publishing, where pages are printed with a slightly yellow or cream-colored background to give the artwork a warmer and more nostalgic feel. This yellowish tint is often referred to as "aging" or "vintage" effect, and it's meant to evoke a sense of classic manga from the past. So, if you're noticing a slightly yellowish hue on the pages of Sakamoto Days, that's just a stylistic choice and not a printing error!

Beautiful!
Amazing edition. The creators made it with a lot of care. Unlike other omnibuses, the text is kept within a crop so that all of it is readable in a traditional right to left format. Initial pages are in color. Will definitely be buying the rest. Thanks for delivering it in perfect condition.

Quality of the book
The quality of the book was superb..... Though the price is a little high but i think every money is worth of it ..... I don't think there is any room to talk about the story and the art of The great NAOKI URASAWA..... I have watched the anime..... But still to have this in my manga collection is a fortune.....

Una edición muy buena
En sí, no tengo problema con la edición, la queja que si tengo es el hecho que no viene con un plástico que lo envuelva y que algunos (de los 9 tomos) vienen un poco maltratados del lomo por el mal manejo, que puede sea desde la tienda o durante el envío. La edición es excepcional, cada céntimo lo vale; hojas gruesas y blancas, buena tinta y un tamaño agradable para apreciar los dibujos. En cuanto al lenguaje se necesita saber suficiente ingles porque se combina mucho con nombres alemanes y tecnicismos de medicina. Lo mismo para los otros 9 tomos.

All lives are equal?
For you all lives are created equal, that's why I came back to life. But you've finally come to realize it now, haven't you? Only one thing is equal for all, and that is death. But you know, the hard part comes after you conquer the world.

Suspense de primeira!
Material: Resolvi começar minha coleção de Monster em inglês visto o excelente trabalho da Viz. As paginas num primeiro momento são duras, mas após algum tempo de manuseio se tornam muito boas de folhear. A gramatura é boa, são paginas grossas e não deixam a luz passar quando lido em ar livre. História: A história de Monster é muito fissurante, Urasawa sabe construir personagens reais com muita delicadeza, mas peca na estruturação dos painéis em alguns momentos de tensão, isto é, em alguns momentos a resolução perde seu climax pois na pagina esquerda há o desfecho da ação, seu olho por curiosidade pode te gerar um mini spoiler. Uma maneira de se evitar isso é manter a resolução do conflito no 'virar de pagina'. Recomendo para aqueles que querem ler e não encontram mais a versão da Panini e também para quem curte treinar o inglês, a linguagem é tranquila apesar de não ter condições de julgar a tradução. Nota: 5/5
