Megan and Ska:
I'm rereading Monster on mangahere and so far I've just started volume 5. Volumes 2 and 4 included copious amounts of Nina.
I'm trying to figure out what exactly the hell happened in our plot since I know Tenma's not in it and lots of Geneco is, but you guys are gonna have to fill me in because I know not what the fuck's up. xD
In the manga we have this, so far:
Nina gets emails around her 20th birthday from Johan without knowing it's him, Johan tries to meet her, Tenma interrupts, but back at her place she finds her parents dead. Policemen show up, then Tenma realizes they can't possibly know all they know and must work for Johan and have been the real murderers of the Fortners, so he jumps into the river with Nina. They're living alone for a while, then she runs off.
She works as a waitress for six months while simultaneously studying marksmanship and then tracks down one of the policemen who killed her parents, knowing Johan must have hired him and wanting to find Johan. The policeman's been told by a Neo-Nazi leader called "The Baby" that if Nina contacts him she should be sent his way as bait to lure Johan in because they want Johan to lead them, thinking he's a second coming of Hitler. She fails to meet Johan but he's obviously been around. Shit goes down mostly involving Tenma and the Neo-Nazis trying to burn down the Turkish quarter and murdering a Turkish woman Nina tries to help.
That's where I'm at so far. And then her past involves being alone as a child wandering around with Johan, and people would be kind to them but later die, and then they're taken in by the Lieberts and Johan kills them and she realizes he's murdered the past people too, and picks up the gun to kill him and Johan tells her to throw the gun out the window and aim for his head. She shoots and then goes into a state of shock. When Johan recovers he takes her and leaves. They end up living with the Fortners, but Johan runs away. The Fortners try to find him but never do. Nina loses her memories and grows up for the next 9 years normally with no knowledge of a brother.
I know that in our universe Tenma never came into the picture and that after the thing with the Lieberts, Geneco takes in the kids, Rotti learns they're Adrian's, but doesn't tell Adrian, and then the kids run off again and presumably end up with the Fortners in the same way.
Megan?? Is this correct?
I need to know how *that* went down, and I also need to work out with you, Ska, what exactly went on with Johan and Nina and how much stuff happened like it did in the manga. Either respond to this (that'd be useful to keep track of the facts) or contact me on AIM tomorrow.
Thanks guys!
