| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Not my favourite episode, but it was still enjoyable :) Tenma is so lucky. I wonder what would happen if he didn't meet only nice people =P |

| I noticed the container thing as well. It's funny how EVERYONE who Kenzo meets figures out he's wanted for murder, but NOBODY turns him in. Not the old couple, or Rudy, or all of the Turks, or the doctor and policeman from that small village, or the gun guy. Heckel almost got him in trouble, but that wasn't because he wanted to. I guess Kenzo just has an infectious personality. He doesn't have a single wicked bone in his body. A true good guy. He makes everyone who meets him better for having met him, and that wins people over I guess. |
 |
| I guess everybody sees the goodness within his heart even though it is thirsting to kill. |
| Not the best episode but an enjoyable side story. It just dawned on me how different this anime is from the anime I usually watch...I kinda miss the outrageous character designs and fights but in other ways it's refreshing to watch something completely different. |
 |
| This episode had very nice character development. Even if the story did not develop. Tenma's innocent image is strengthened. And it is the main thing that keeps Tenma from being arrested. It's not because he meets only "nice people". The innocent look in his eyes is so strong, that every normal person can say that by just looking at him. Normal people do not include very smart, intelligent people. Like inspector Runge. He is a very logical man, who does not trust his emotions, if he has any of those. Other people like the doctor in the last episode, also trusted logic and his experience in dealing with people who have psychological disorders. |
| No sig :( |
| Nearly everyone Tenma meets is doing what is best for him. And Johann does exactly the same. |
| quite good episode.. damn i love the atmosphere.. |
| I sense a lot of testimonies in his favor should he be caught... this is great. |
     |
| Everyone Tenma meets knows he's innocent. I know I'm just guessing, but it seems like there might be an award for turning him in, and they all still let Tenma go.I feel bad about what happened with their son though :( |
 |
| Walking all that way, he's seriously too nice for his own good :) |

| yet another heartwarming episode tenma and the kid ya tenma need to tell him to stop calling him by his name he already sticks out like a sore thumb |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| I wonder if this "Robert" will have an importance in this story or it's just another random encounter with random people. |
 |
| Tenma is so sweet. <3 |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Luckily they didn't lodge a report about Tenma. |
| When the guy mentioned he was a pretty good detective, then gave Tenma a really long look I had a feeling the story was going to go this route. But even knowing that, the episode was enjoyable. The scenic tour was nice to look at, the couple were cute in a shrewd way and dieter was terribly cute running up the stairs. I was thrown for one loop though, after leaving the police station they say "What should we do?" kinda like 'now that we know Tenma is an evil killer'. But the writer got me! Who doesn't love a twist ending. |
| Dude sitting in that car with an ex cop who is hinting at you being a criminal... If I was wanted as a serial Killer that would be enough to make me shit bricks. |
 |
| Nice Filler episode. About Episode: Haha couple was very kind to stop that car and give ride to Tenma and dieter but their badly Tenma chose car that one of the couple was policeman before. Oh man Tenma haha have a nice ride. Nice to see even that man questioned Tenma so many times he learned that his Innocent and not guilty of those events that happened. That sunglasses guy was really kind in the end.¨ Now who is this their son they are talking about Robert. Maybe this is going to be revealed soon with plot twist or something like that. But this was peaceful episode and scenary looked beautiful. |
 |
| Interesting story about an old detective. |
 |
| Good guy Tenma. He seems like he'd be an amazing guy to have as a friend. |

| great episode :D even though it was only a filler, it was still great! finally Dieter is here! wondered where he went last episode :P i'm glad Tenma came back to give the old couple some gas! that was a long walk though! and wow the husband is pretty suspicious of him. the police station scene was intense! definitely gonna make you crazy as hell! and i thought the Robert son was Johan XD too much of a coincidence :P glad the husband though of Tenma was innocent ^^ so Tenma reminded them of their son, that despite killing someone. he might have been a good kid. could he be framed or something? wow so we're at 20th episode now!! time sure flies by!! i'll probably won't be able to watch this week due to having an exam next week O___O so i'll watch the 21th episode a week and few days from now ^^ |

I was worried that he would've turned into the police station. You'll love the next episodes! |

| Am I the only one who's curious as to who this Robert guy is that's the old couples son? At first I thought, 'no way could this really be Johann's real parents' but who knows, maybe they'll appear again and it'll all be explained. For some reason, I just can't stop watching this show. I love how slow it is and all the 'filler' episodes. It only furthers the characters depth and it really is something I have grown to enjoy. -Cheers |

Anyways, surprisingly this was my favorite episode so far (for some reason). I liked the message and I thought it was executed perfectly. The old ex-policeman guy talking about a man being a murderer in the cafe and then we find out at the end that the man he was talking about was their son... brilliant. |
 |
| Right there on the ending I though with me "this is a perfect masterpiece" |
| EL PSY KONGROO!!! |
| I cried at the end :') |

| Even tough the story didn't really advance (Tenma and Dieter just got to a new town) it was an enjoyable episode. |
 |
| 100% SoL. Me likes |
| Not much plot developement but that scene at the police station was fucking intense. If I was wanted for murder and a policeman looked at me, I'd probably shit myself. Good episode 7/10 |
| An emotional episode as always or perhaps i am very emotional person. |
| Man, even the filler in this show is amazing. 5/5 |
 |
| Nice episode but again it felt like filler :/ |
 |
TripleSRank said: Yeah, definitely looking forward to that. insan3priest said: Yet his "niceness" makes him a great contrast to the morally lacking characters in the story. ^ I do wonder what will happen if he meets someone who has no qualms turning him in, though. The semi-episodic format that has been adopted makes me quite comfortable to watch an episode whenever I feel like it. In a sense, Monster is actually a pretty casual series :D |

| Can't help but feel this fillerish episodes don't add much to the series. Thrillers are always better in slow pace but this show takes it a bit too far. |
| Damn Tenma, always hiding from the popp |

| Loved the atmosphere in this episode! So calming. The plot didn't develop but I believe that these kind of episodes are very important to the whole feel of the story. Also, Tenma has been SUPER lucky until now. |
