Cinnamon Ass - Reborn Like a Zombie

Monster Episode 7 - The Mansion of Tragedy

I did say I'd try and catch up with Monster some day. One episode at a time...

Tenma and Nina hurry back to the Fortner house, but they are already too late to prevent the inevitable. As they try to leave they meet two policeman who purportedly respond to a phone call - however, Tenma knows the line was cut, and they know far too much about him to be really responding to the crime, so he escapes with Nina (who has begun to remember all the details about Johan). Tenma's attempts to go public with the information that Johan is the killer are thwarted by the policemen and Nina herself, who leaves while he's away to go after Johan herself.

Well, what can I say that I didn't say before? It's slow, but gripping stuff, and the advantage of this massive break is that the manga is even further from my mind. However, unlike Yakitate!! Japan, the anime is as good as, if not slightly better by virtue of animation, than the manga, making it an equal pleasure to watch. I may never catch up before the DVDs start coming out but I can at least give it a shot, can't I?
