For those unfamiliar, brief description: it's a sci-fi murder mystery series set in a society of humans and robots trying to coexist, with the murders making things more difficult.


I went in without expectations one way or another and was pretty impressed! I'm still kind of mixed about the use of 3D effects in some anime, but the use in this show being fairly limited (or what was more obvious being limited), made it so it wasn't too distracting.

Some of it was rather on the nose, but it was still a good, gut-punching time.

Anyone else here happen to watch it?

Oh whoa, I'm familiar with Monster but didn't remember the author's name, so didn't make the connection! That probably explains some of why I enjoyed it, as I also appreciated Monster, even if it does drag things out a bit.

Also yeah, I don't remember specific examples of the dialogue, but it definitely has those awkward/clunky moments of, "Did you really need to say it?" I think it's something I've grown to kind of take in stride with some media though.
