I really liked the watercolors (I think that's what they are) that appear along with the closing credits on Naoki Urasawa's Monster. They are the ones of the chubby witch or monster in the purple robe with the pointy hat and sharp teeth. They appear to the right of the closing credits at the end of each episode. As the series progresses, the story seems to be that the creature is alone. It spots a villiage and runs to it for what I assume is contact with other beings. The creature is met by a large man who promptly grabs and eats him or her or it. The irony of the monster not being the true monster fits perfectly with the theme of the series.
I've been trying to find out if the pictures are from another book, a fairy tale, or were specially made for the Monster anime series. I'd really like to see them full screen and see the whole series of them if such a thing exists.
If anybody knows where/what they are from and where I could see them or buy a book or whatever that contains them I would appreciate it.
