(Spoiler alert) About the ending

The real monster in the title of episode 74 actually refers to Nina. We always thought that the monster refers to John, but the title of episode 74 is a metaphor for the monster. John's doing so much just because he doesn't want the real monster to wake up. On the hospital bed, John and Tianma told the cause, and when Tianma heard it, he understood, which is why Tianma's expression was distorted when he heard it.

In the fairy tale, one of the two monsters goes east and the other goes west. The monster heading east was a little boy, which was John.

"I don't need a name, and I live happily without a name. Because we are monsters without a name." The little boy ate the monster that went west.

The metaphor is that John ate Nina's monster and wiped out all related memories, in order to prevent Nina from recalling it, because Nina "lives happily without a name".

The name he finally got, but there is no one who can call him. John, what a lovely name.

Lonely John.

Monster quotes

  • Inspector Lunge: I already know what happened. I know about Inspector Zeman's connection to the secret police and his brutal death. Prague's police chief and two officers were poisoned to death.

    [taps fingers]

    Inspector Lunge: The two agents who were sent to tail you were found shot to death. And you're the chief suspect in all the incidents that have taken place. Considering all the evidence stacked against you, you're the culprit.

    Jan Suk: I'm not! I didn't do anything!

    Inspector Lunge: Then it could be Grimmer, the tall, thin, man who was talking with Inspector Zeman the day before he was killed?

    Jan Suk: It's not Mr. Grimmer, either! He wouldn't do something like that.

    Inspector Lunge: In that case, who is the killer? You know, don't you? You know who the killer is, right?

    Jan Suk: W-What are you talking about? If I knew, I wouldn't be in this state. Deceived by so many people... set up to take the fall... even being on the run from the police... I've had enough of this! I don't want to be betrayed anymore!

    Inspector Lunge: You're a detective, aren't you? If you're a detective, then you have to calmly dissect the situation. Even if it's painful, you must calmly uncover the truth.

    [gets up]

    Inspector Lunge: If you don't want to be betrayed anymore... then start doubting the person you want to doubt the least.

    [leaves Suk's hospital room]

  • Eve Heinemann: I want the biggest one you can give me.

    Gun seller: A beginner can't handle a big gun. What are you trying to shoot?

    Eve Heinemann: A real devil.
