I thought both were great too, but I don't know that either would get another chance. Unfortunately, I think anime based off Urasawa's work are just cursed to not do well here.

Oh wow I haven't heard the name Master Keaton in years ! I remember I was interested in owning that one as well. I managed to get Yawara! on DVD years ago, but it was only the first 40 episodes. I appreciate all the info thanks. Hopefully one day we'll get Monster on bluray
