Monster Episode 10 - An Erased Past



Tenma makes his way to Verdun following Johan's trail of death, but is interrupted while investigating the latest victims by a petty thief, Heckel. They eventually corner the murderer and extract more information on Johan, but there's a chilling message for Tenma at the crime scene. Following this, Heckel coerces Tenma into caring for a wounded terrorist, causing a battle between Tenma's morals and their self-concern.

This was quite blatantly two separate stories squished into one episode, and the disjointed nature of it as such made this a slightly uneven episode - the first half was great, but the second half felt a little preachy and superfluous. I've almost caught up to where I got to in the manga before stopping, so things will get more unpredictable from here onwards hopefully!
