Endings

One series that really left an impression on me was Monster, by Naoki Urasawa. Urasawa's a champion when it comes to weaving flashbacks and plot twists into his stories, and his best works usually include introspective commentary on the human condition. I make a habit of never explaining the ending to anyone who hasn't watched/read Monster yet (If you're into Monster and you come upon spoilers I guarantee you'll die a little inside cause his plot twists just are that good) so all I'm going to say about the ending is that it was brilliant.

I read that some people didn't like it because they thought it was inconclusive, but I thought that it was perfect given the particular struggles and inner conflict of all the characters before that final confrontation. Monster gives you a lot of food for thought, and I was glad that the fate of the characters wasn't set in stone because it let me imagine the rest of it for myself.

Monster was spoiled for me :<
