Monster is the story of Dr. Kenzo Tenma, a Japanese neurosurgeon working in Germany. Engaged with the hospital director’s daughter and with a clear talent for brain surgery, Tenma is enjoying elite status. But when - against his conscience - he prioritizes treating a celebrity over another patient who arrived first, resulting in the latter’s death, Tenma swears never to make the same mistake again. Thus, when the town mayor is in dire need of surgery, Tenma refuses to abandon the patient he’s operating on at the time - a young boy. This decision, however, will haunt Tenma for the rest of his life. Tenma’s choice to follow his conscience costs him and endangers his status, but all those who could demote him wind up mysteriously dead. With no evidence against him, Tenma is free to return to his everyday life. But what will Tenma do when Johan, the boy he saved, turns out to be a monster - a serial killer who can sweet-talk nearly anyone into killing themselves? Bereft of anything that used to give his life meaning, Tenma sets out to destroy the monster he has created. But this will not be an easy task, given that this monster might be one of the smartest anime characters of all time…

At the time of writing Monster isn’t available to watch on Netflix worldwide. Those in North America can, however, watch the show on Netflix. Netflix often updates its anime library with new titles, including classic ones, so Monster might make it to the European version of the platform one day in the near future.
Is Monster on Crunchyroll?
Monster is not available on Crunchyroll at this time, though this might change in the future.
Is Monster on Funimation?
Funimation is not currently one of the places where you can watch Monster. At this point, people might wonder if Funimation is still worth it after the Crunchyroll merger. To be honest, this depends on whether any of your favorites are still exclusive on Funimation. In any case, we don’t expect it to acquire new anime, meaning that Monster is unlikely to end up there.
