Hartmann is a supporting antagonist of Naoki Urasawa’s Monster anime and manga series. He is a former psychologist at Kinderheim 511, who became obsessed with Johan Liebert and becoming an adoptive father to Deiter and many other children to turn them into Johan.

What Makes Him a Hate Sink?[]

As a former director of the Kinderheim 511 orphanage, he oversaw horrific experiments on dozens of children, in attempts to make them emotionless soldiers.
He fanatically praises Johan for being "beyond the program" by causing a riot that induced a massacre between children and staff. He is obsessed with recreating Johan and did this by adopting over 50 children and horrifically abusing them so they would develop Johan's nihilism. This includes not only physical abuse but also psychological as he tells the children how dark the world is and that they can’t live without him.
He beats Dieter and tries to lie about his injuries when Tenma shows up at his apartment. When Tenma calls him out on it, he instead of showing remorse, calls the cops on Tenma and advises him to leave.
He beats Deiter again and drags him to the burned down Kinderheim 511 site to show off to Tenma.
When Deiter begins to want to follow Tenma, he threatens to shoot him. When his threats don’t work, he is reduced to cowardly tears.
