Zankyou no Terror and Monster have a few pretty significant similarities in terms of plot and themes. For example: -Both involve children being used in government experiments. -Both have young genius characters who commit crimes for reasons not fully explained until you get closer to the conclusion of the series. -Similarly to Tenma's hunt for Johan in Monster, Shibazaki taking a personal interest in bringing 9 and 12 to justice is one of the main driving forces behind Zankyou no Terror's plot. -While these are more central aspects of Monster, Zankyou no Terror also has elements of mystery and suspense. While Monster has a cast of characters that are more morally complex and developed (and is essentially a deeper, more disturbing and better series in my eyes), those who liked the suspense/mystery and investigation aspect of Zankyou no Terror may enjoy Monster.
