Fran can make anyone into anything, raise the dead, switch heads and bodies, and give you those eyes that you've always wanted. But do you actually want them? Is it a good thing to raise the dead? Do the ends justify the means? And does Fran care?
Franken Fran is about a artificially created human who has nearly infinite capabilities in the field of medicine. She can do just about anything. The only real problem is that she's a bit of a sociopath, regardless of her willingness to help others, she doesn't understand what people really want in the end. Each chapter introduces a problem, Fran "solves" the problem for them, but then leaves with a whole new problem set for the characters.
Each chapter (or bi-chapter parts) are all separate stories, and are not really connected with each other (though there are often sequel stories and chronological connections).
Series ended today with the last chapters, somewhat abrupt and without explanations. The mangaka said she has her reasons but didn't explain them. It was one of my favorite mangas so its a pretty sad day for me to see it end so suddenly and without dealing with a few foreshadowed content from previous chapters.
[S]Its also a series known for its incredibly misleading volume covers[/S]

Anyone that picks up this series because they thought they were gonna get something based off the cover art would be very disappointed.
