That baby though..

Great to see the show make its return this week while there are all sort of delusions going on with Shinchi's head now. Poor him. He better not daydream in class again. Losing Kana has broken him quite a bit...damn. However, I am also curious to see how much further this will develop. Kinda amusing how Murano almost saw Shinchi's other hand though this episode. Close one

That command on the baby was beyond creepy :/

A normal person finally found out about Shinichi's right hand! It was quite the struggle for Shinichi to try his very best to not let Migi kill any human. Shinichi's feelings about not being able to mourn.

Murano wanting to know despite knowing it is something that even turns death into not much of a deal. The struggle and Migi going into full attack mode, it was a heartbreaking scene.

Definitely looking forward to the next episode about what the detective would do.

Murano knows something is up but poor Shinichi cant say anything. No emotions and getting over anything that hurts easily has turned himself into a seemingly cold person.
That Parasyte teacher is a pain hope she gets dealt with.

I don't want to find out what kind of methods of "taming" Ryouko is using on her newborn.

Detective-kun was pretty lucky to make it out alive. Looks like Migi's wireless mode isn't that well-suited for combat yet. It looked like he nearly cut off his arm though. Shinichi was very unlucky that he was observed right after his dilemma started to intensify, due to recent events.

Pretty funny how he's actually being indirectly used as a lab rat by a group of parasites right now. The episode did a great job by portraying the emotional mess he's in right now, or lack of thereof. I guess Ryouko is even more satisfied with leaving him alive.

It somewhat ended on a cliffhanger again. I bet the people who will marathon this eventually will have a lot more fun.

Really nice come back :3

If only people were able to shut their baby up like that XD

So much Shinichi suffering this ep :O He just doesn't know what to do anymore.
I just love how he changes his mood so quickly from being Mindf***ed to being totally fine and calm. It's like he has some kind of switch or sth XD

This ep was one of the few times I actually liked Satomi for some reason. Maybe since she didn't say "Are u really Izumi?" LOL KanaHana's VAing was even better than usual. Depicting her doubts perfectly. Loved the last conversation when Shinichi was really willing to tell her everything then noticed that Migi is awake. Her facial expression when he said there's nothing wrong anymore was really nice :3

Migi going berserk on that inspector was lol XD That guy's got some huge ass luck on his side not to have died there :P He doesn't have any visual evidence anymore so he shouldn't be much of a threat right now but he might become one soon if he doesn't die XD

Man, I waited two weeks and they give me this?!... Well, at least it's only going to be a one week wait from now on so that's a relief.

Anyways it seems like Tamiya Ryouko is a baby whisperer, making that baby go silent with just one word lol.

Why is this happening to you Shinchi? I would say it has something to do with the parasite lodged in your hand.

... that command to the baby ...

Murano wanting to know the truth ever since the beginning. But she still doesn't get an answer after so long.

Come on now, I can't say she is my fav female lead by any means, but how would she know Kana's life was in danger since Shiinchi won't tell her anything?

I would bet most people don't like her because she doesn't know anything about the whole parasite thing which keeps her out of the main flow of the show, which we can't say is her fault.

I wouldn't say that, she just doesn't know what's going on and is worrying why even Izumi-kan can't tell her the truth.

Ok, so his meeting Kana the day of their date, then a few days later she gets killed and Murano is supposed to put the pieces together, especially with Shinichi telling her with that deadpan look that nothing is wrong?

Yeah, Migi isn't a compromising life form, but a calculative one - he definitely doesn't need another "Kana", especially after Shinichi let the private detective run away.

Shinichi was the first person to find her body, a fact Murano is well aware of. She must be as dumb as a brick to think that's just some coincidence.

Sucks that Shiinchi got caught by a random stranger that will play a big part in the next episode.

Don't me wrong I like Murano but what's more important a dumb movie date or someone's life is in danger. I know Shiinchi didn't explain anything to her but that still doesn't give her a damn right to be mad at him.

God, I missed the adrenaline and feels from this show, even though it was only two weeks, lol.

Man, with scenes of Tamiya with her kid, Shinichi holding Migi back, and then Shinichi later struggling to tell Murano with the shot of Migi posed to slice her up... I can't tell what horrified me the most, even though Izumi screaming at Migi to stop was the most emotionally-packed scene in the episode. This is just going to get worse from here, and I love every second of it. I really should get around to reading more of the manga, as much as I'd prefer to buy the physical copies first, but I also kinda don't want to "spoil" anything for me.

I would say she knows something is going on, but she isn't telepathic, she is just a high school girl worried about her boyfriend.

If you don't like her character, i can respect that and I won't try to talk you out of it. I just don't think she quite deserves so much hate is all and I'll leave it at that.

First time in this adaptation I like Murano as much as I liked her in the manga, which means this was a good episode. She'll find out eventually, but her reaction was completely understandable. I feel bad for both of them :/

Oh shit, did we had an episode where no one died?! :O

In the end, that detective will ends up killed probably not even by Shinichi. If Tamiya Ryouko ever end up learning from teh detective that he now knows that he has something in his hand, she will kill him. After all, I'm knowing that the parasytes exist is a danger for all the parasytes.

Ninja Migi was hilarious. That pose he had, holy shit xD
Tamiya as also a hilarious way of raising children. If only they were that receptive...

That ending was kinda depressing. It made me realize that I got Shinichi emotional reactions all wrong. It's not that he cannot express them, it's that he automatically supress them. He want to feel sadness, but his body and mind won't let him.

If he continue to repress his emotions and keep being detached to Murano, he will lose his last bond to humanity, Murano. On the hand, if he stay too close to her, she'll end up getting killed, just like Kana. Especially now that those parasyte politicians have him on the watch. Also, is it me or one of those politicians is the one we see in the OP who looks freaking strong? That guy will go on a rampage for sure...

That's fine. I didn't really dislike her that much before but her line which I quoted in my first post was kind of the tipping point, as it implies that see cared more about missing the film than Kana dying.

I think she might have said that because she was under the impression that he was seeing Kana romantically as well. She thought something along the lines of "was there really nothing between Kana and Izumi-kun" to herself earlier in this episode.

Agreed, and she's obviously one of the parts of this anime that makes it become so interesting. I bet if there wasn't any romance in it the story would be pointless, but romance completes everything in it, that's what makes it so good.
