I read Ode to Kirihito today. As I do not own the copy, I’m going to refrain from properly reviewing it at this point, so as to avoid any glaring errors.

Kirihito is the tale of a brilliant doctor who is shafted by his own hospital, which takes him on a difficult and painful journey. While a good person at heart, unlike our favorite Monster-chasing Japanese rogue doctor, Kirihito doesn’t have much issue with taking revenge upon those that have wronged him.

So I think it’d be great fun if Johan were introduced into the story. Just let him run around doing his thing, though he’d probably only end up accelerating what already happens.

And of course, given the context of the “monmow” disease in Ode to Kirihito, an illness which causes the patient’s bones and muscles to atrophy and change their appearance into that of a beast, Johan’s chilling message about how the Monster is inside of him would seem all the more appropriate.

Yes, why I did just in fact propose a crossover fanfic.
