: Doctor Kenzo Tenma is a Japanese [[Neurosurgery|neurosurgeon]] working at the Eisler Memorial Hospital in [[Düsseldorf]]. At the beginning of ''Monster'' he is favored by the department director for his prodigious surgical skill. After a crisis of conscience, he chooses to save the life of a young boy instead of the city's mayor, and is unjustly demoted as a result; he then becomes suspect for murder when the department director and several prominent doctors are killed weeks later. It is only after nine years that Dr. Tenma learns the perpetrator of the hospital murders is none other than the boy he saved years before, Johan Liebert. Plagued by guilt, he resolves to find Johan and end the life of this "monster" he feels responsible for creating. Despite his mission, Dr. Tenma is a humanitarian who genuinely cares about the lives of others. These acts of kindness makes him very influential with the people he meets. | : Doctor Kenzo Tenma is a Japanese [[Neurosurgery|neurosurgeon]] working at the Eisler Memorial Hospital in [[Düsseldorf]].

: Johan Liebert is the namesake "monster" of the story and the mystery of his past is the focus of the plot. He has been called a monster, the next [[Adolf Hitler]] and even the devil himself. Johan Liebert was shot in the head at a young age but saved from death by Dr. Tenma. Because of this, he regards Dr. Tenma almost as though he were a father. He has spent portions of his life in different places under different aliases and possesses an extraordinary level of charisma and intelligence. He uses his gifts to cruelly manipulate and corrupt others, often with no apparent end other than to cause suffering and destruction. His goal, as he stated when he was young, is to be the last one standing at the end of the world. One of the themes of ''Monster'' is how individuals are capable of transforming into monsters; Johan often acts as both a direct and indirect catalyst for this transformation. | : Johan Liebert is the namesake "monster" of the story and the mystery of his past is the focus of the plot.

: Inspector Runge (referred to as Lunge in the English Manga translations) is a [[Federal Criminal Police Office (Germany)|BKA]] detective assigned to the murder case of the hospital, and holds Doctor Kenzo Tenma as a main suspect. He first believes that Doctor Tenma invented Johan; later, he becomes convinced that Johan is, in fact, an alternate personality of Tenma. Inspector Runge is utterly devoted to his work, at the expense of neglecting his personal life, as during the course of the series, his wife and pregnant daughter leave him. He also possesses an excellent memory and has a habit of "entering data" into his memory by making typing gestures with his hands. On the surface, he passes off as a man devoid of emotion and it is this state of mind that allows him to commit himself to every case he works in. His tough style eventually drives one of his murder suspects to suicide, prompting his superiors to remove Runge from every case he is working on, with the exception of the case against Dr. Tenma. Also, somewhat like Grimmer, he has an expression that barely changes. | : Inspector Runge (referred to as Lunge in the English Manga translations) is a [[Federal Criminal Police Office (Germany)|BKA]] detective assigned to the murder case of the hospital, and holds Doctor Kenzo Tenma as a main suspect.

Geschichte
Die Serie zeigt den Leidensweg des jungen Dr. Kenzo Tenma (天馬 賢三 Tenma Kenzo) während er einen jungen Psychopathen/Soziopathen namens Johan verfolgt, dessen Leben Tenma einst gerettet hat. Die Geschichte spielt sich zum Großteil in Deutschland, aber auch zu einem Teil in Prag ab. Die Ereignisse fangen in Düsseldorf an, und finden dann nacheinander in Berlin, Frankfurt, München, und Wiesbaden statt. Später wechselt sich der Schauplatz, als Tenma Johan bis in die Tschechische Republik nach Prag verfolgt. Nebst diesen großen Städten, finden auch einige Ereignisse in kleineren Dörfern, besonders in Deutschland, statt.
Der Text auf dem Cover des ersten Manga-Bandes lautet:
"Düsseldorf, West-Deutschland im Jahre 1986. Eines Tages ignoriert Dr. Kenzo Tenma die Befehle seines Chefs und rettet das Kind eines gewöhnlichen Mannes. So beginnt diese fürchterliche Geschichte!!"
Dr. Kenzo Tenma ist ein junger japanischer Doktor, der am Eisler Gedenk Krankenhaus in Düsseldorf während der 80er Jahre arbeitet. Als ein sehr fähiger Gehirn-Chirurg, scheint er alles zu besitzen: Eine Beförderung steht ihm bevor, er versteht sich gut mit dem Direktor des Krankenhauses (Dr. Heinemann), und die Tochter des Direktors, Eva Heinemann, ist seine Verlobte. Dennoch ekelt Tenma die politische Art des Krankenhauses, besonders wichtige Patienten zuerst zu behandeln, immer mehr an. Er entschließt sich, das zu ändern, als nach einem mysteriösen Massaker die Zwillinge Johann und Anna Liebert ins Krankenhaus eingeliefert werden. Johann wird mit einer Schusswunde am Kopf ins Krankenhaus gebracht. Anna wiederrum murmelt die ganze Zeit schockiert nur: "töten", obwohl sie keine sichtbaren Verletzungen hat. Da Tenma der einzige ist, der in der Lage wäre, die Schusswunde an Johanns Kopf zu operieren, missachtet er den Befehl des Direktors, einen Politiker zu operieren, und rettet Johann vor dem sicheren Tod. Der Politiker aber stirbt, weil kein anderer so fähiger Chirurg schnell genug beginnen konnte. Daraufhin verliert Tenma alles, was ihm bisher sicher schien: Der Direktor versichert ihm, dass er seine Karriere völlig vergessen kann, und Eva, die Tochter des Direktors, verlässt ihn prompt. Doch plötzlich sterben der Direktor und die zwei Chefärtzte. Die zwei Zwillinge Johann und Anna verschwinden auf mysteriöse Weise aus dem Krankehaus. Die Polizei verdächtigt Tenma, da er sehr aus dieser ganzen Ereignisekette profitiert, hat jedoch keine Bewesie, und kann daher auch nichts weiter tun.
An diesem Punkt rückt die Geschichte 9 Jahre weiter vor. Tenma ist der Chef-Chirurg des Eisler Gedenk-Krankenhauses geworden. Jedoch steht er kurz davor, einem Soziopathen gegenüberzustehen. Ein Soziopath, den er selbst gerettet hat.
Ein bekannter Verbrecher, Herr Junkers, wird auf der Straße gefunden, von einem Auto angefahren. Er wird von Dr. Tenma betreut, welcher Junkers beobachtet, als er mit Angsterfüllten Augen murmelt, dass "das Monster kommt!" Eines Abends dann kommt Dr. Tenma mit einer Uhr als Geschenk für Junkers zurück, und findet die Wache vor Junkers Zimmer tot auf, und Junkers selbst spurlos verschwunden.
Als Tenma Junkers über die Straße laufen sieht, verfolgt er ihn bis zu einem nahe gelegenen Rohbau, wo Junkers sich zu verstecken scheint. Als Tenma jedoch in den Rohbau geht, warnt Junkers ihn nicht näher zu kommen, und fleht ihn an wegzurennen. Tenma weigert sich, und entdeckt, dass Junkers von einem Mann im Halbdunkel bedroht wird, der eine Pistole auf ihn gerichtet hält. Als Tenma versucht, den Unbekannten, er mit einer beängistgend sanften Stimme spricht, davon abzubringen, Junkers zu erschießen, entdeckt er, dass der Unbekannte niemand anderer als Johann ist, den er vor 9 Jahren gerettet hat. Trotz der Versuche Tenmas, mit Johann zu reden, erschießt dieser Junkers mit 3 Pistolenschüssen. Dann erzählt Johann, dass er niemals den Mann töten könnte, der ihm einst das Leben gerettet hat, und geht offenbar gewissenlos aus dem Rohbau, während Tenma immer noch zu schockiert ist, um ihn aufzuhalten. Nach diesem Ereignis wird Tenma wieder von der Polizei verdächtigt. Besonders Inspektor Lunge, der nach Tenmas Erläuterungen fest davon überzeugt ist, dass Tenma Johann erfunden hat, um der Verhaftung zu entgehen.
Tenma versucht anschließend, mehr über Johann herauszufinden. Er findet bald seine Zwillingsschwester, Nina, die glücklich als eine adoptierte Tochter mit zwei sorgsamen Eltern lebt. An ihre schreckliche Vergangenheit scheint sie sich nicht zu erinnern, und hat nur noch einige Träume davon. Tenma findet Nina an ihrem Geburtstag und schafft es sie davon abzuhalten, ihren Bruder zu treffen, aber kommt zu spät, um Johann davon abzuhalten, die Adoptiveltern Ninas zu töten. Während die Geschichte voranschreitet, entdeckt Tenma mehr über die Vergangenheit des "Monsters". Insbesondere dass Johann einst in "Kinderheim 511" gelebt hat, ein mysteriöses Heim, was gegründet wurde um "die perfekten Soldaten" durch "psychologische Reprogrammierung" zu erschaffen. Er verfolgt die Spur Johanns bis in die tschechische Republik zurück, wo er außerdem entdeckt, dass Johann auch durch die Kinderbücher eines seltsamen Autors beeinflusst wurde. Außerdem erfährt Tenma während seiner ganzen Reise, wie viele schreckliche Verbrechen Johann begangen hat, und schwört sich den Fehler zu korrigieren, den er begangen hat, als er Johanns leben rettete.
Während Tenma der zentrale Charakter in Monster ist, dreht sich das Geschehen auch sehr um diejenigen, die ihm bei seiner Suche helfen oder versuchen ihn davon abzuhalten, wie beispielsweise Inspektor Lunge, der Johanns Mörder zwar alle untersucht, sie aber alle auf Tenma schiebt, oder auch Nina Fortner (die frühere Anna Liebert, Johanns Zwillingsschwester), und eine Menge anderer Charaktere, die, mehr oder weniger alle von dem Monster namens Johann betroffen sind.
Liste der Charaktere
Zentrale Charaktere
Dr. Kenzo Tenma Gesprochen von: Hidenobu Kiuchi
- Doctor Kenzo Tenma is a Japanese neurosurgeon working at the Eisler Memorial Hospital in Düsseldorf. At the beginning of Monster he is favored by the department director for his prodigious surgical skill. After a crisis of conscience, he chooses to save the life of a young boy instead of the city's mayor, and is unjustly demoted as a result; he then becomes suspect for murder when the department director and several prominent doctors are killed weeks later. It is only after nine years that Dr. Tenma learns the perpetrator of the hospital murders is none other than the boy he saved years before, Johan Liebert. Plagued by guilt, he resolves to find Johan and end the life of this "monster" he feels responsible for creating. Despite his mission, Dr. Tenma is a humanitarian who genuinely cares about the lives of others. These acts of kindness makes him very influential with the people he meets.
Johan Liebert Gesprochen von: Nozomu Sasaki
- Johan Liebert is the namesake "monster" of the story and the mystery of his past is the focus of the plot. He has been called a monster, the next Adolf Hitler and even the devil himself. Johan Liebert was shot in the head at a young age but saved from death by Dr. Tenma. Because of this, he regards Dr. Tenma almost as though he were a father. He has spent portions of his life in different places under different aliases and possesses an extraordinary level of charisma and intelligence. He uses his gifts to cruelly manipulate and corrupt others, often with no apparent end other than to cause suffering and destruction. His goal, as he stated when he was young, is to be the last one standing at the end of the world. One of the themes of Monster is how individuals are capable of transforming into monsters; Johan often acts as both a direct and indirect catalyst for this transformation.
Nina Fortner / Anna Liebert Gesprochen von: Mamiko Noto
- Johan's twin sister and the only unharmed survivor of the night when both her parents and her brother were shot in what appeared to be a botched burglary. At first she showed signs of amnesia due to the psychological trauma of the incident. After she and her brother disappeared, she was adopted by the Fortner family from Heidelberg, who were unaware of her previous identity as Anna Liebert. As Nina Fortner, she was a hardworking law student at an unnamed university (likely the University of Heidelberg), as well as an adept practitioner of Aikido. She lived her life in peace until Johan made contact with her on her twentieth birthday. She comes to pursue Johan, albeit by different methods and for a different reason than Tenma.
Inspector Heinrich Runge Gesprochen von: Tsutomu Isobe
- Inspector Runge (referred to as Lunge in the English Manga translations) is a BKA detective assigned to the murder case of the hospital, and holds Doctor Kenzo Tenma as a main suspect. He first believes that Doctor Tenma invented Johan; later, he becomes convinced that Johan is, in fact, an alternate personality of Tenma. Inspector Runge is utterly devoted to his work, at the expense of neglecting his personal life, as during the course of the series, his wife and pregnant daughter leave him. He also possesses an excellent memory and has a habit of "entering data" into his memory by making typing gestures with his hands. On the surface, he passes off as a man devoid of emotion and it is this state of mind that allows him to commit himself to every case he works in. His tough style eventually drives one of his murder suspects to suicide, prompting his superiors to remove Runge from every case he is working on, with the exception of the case against Dr. Tenma. Also, somewhat like Grimmer, he has an expression that barely changes.
Dieter Gesprochen von: Junko Takeuchi
- Dieter is a young boy when found by Tenma to be under the care of a man named Hartmann. Upon meeting Dieter, Tenma notices that the young boy is covered in bruises. It turns out that Hartmann was trying to make Dieter into another Johan, a kind of leader that had not been produced from 511 Kinderheim before. Dieter later becomes more optimistic after being saved by Doctor Tenma from Hartmann's physical and mental abuse. He follows Doctor Tenma in his search for Johan, partially to prevent Tenma from becoming a murderer, but also because he is fond of Tenma. He later teams up with Nina, to give her moral support whenever her traumatic memories resurface as he was also subjected to similar abuse.
Eva Heinemann Gesprochen von: Mami Koyama
- Eva Heinemann is Doctor Tenma's fiancée and the daughter of the Director of Eisler Memorial Hospital. She leaves Doctor Tenma after he is demoted by the Director for disobeying his orders. After Director Heinemann is murdered by Johan, she tries to return to Tenma, then recently promoted Chief of Surgery due to holes created in the staff by the murder. After being rejected by Doctor Tenma, she later becomes an extremely embittered alcoholic, a three time divorcee who uses the money from divorce settlements to finance her lavish lifestyle. After burning her house down in a drunken rage, she wanders throughout Germany and is also caught up in the investigation of the Monster. Although she does not personally suspect Dr. Tenma as having caused her father's death, one of the things she lives for is to see him suffer in prison in retribution for his rejection of her, as she had previously turned over evidence incriminating Dr. Tenma to Inspector Runge. Her relationship with Tenma can be characterized as obsessive. During the series, she becomes a main target of Roberto.
