Wayy too intense for me. Is it bad that when Migi came back that I started crying? I was so sad when Migi was gone and now that he's bak is just, yes. That's all I can say to describe it.

Migi is back! Yeah!!! So happy!
Great fight, really intense. Glad he decided to kill Gotou, it was for the best, like he said he have small family to protect.

For a second, I really thought Shinichi-kun would let Gouto live. I didn't really expect him to kill him at the end. And yes, Gouto is pitiful at the end, trying to still survive though I understand why Shinichi killed him. Because Gouto was a threat, that's why. I was expecting a lot from the fight seriously. This episode was good but the episode where the cold-hearted Ryouko had a sudden change of heart for her baby was more better than this.

Great episode :).
I was so happy when Migi came back into Shinichi, it was a great moment ! The thinking about whether he will kill him was well done.
At the end, Shinichi stay a human being who act for his survival. Perfect

WWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWW MIIIIIGGGGIIIIIIIIII. MIGI IS BACK!!!!!!!!!!!! DAMN that revival was AWESOME AS FUCK. HE RIPPED OFF ONE OF GOTOUS ARMS AND USED IT FOR HIMSELF!

That was unbelievably cool. And then even as the badass Migi is just goes like "Hey. I'm back".

Man the whole scene threw me totally off. Up until this point it was really serious themed. Shinichi almost died like three times. Then it looks like it's finally over and Shinichi can't escape anymore but Migi saves the day. Not only did he save Shinichi but he also had an amazing revival. Couldn't decide what to feel anymore D:

Damn. Now I'm even more sad that we only have one more episode.

I can't decide whether I like this ep or not. On one note, Migi's back. And on the other, are you honestly telling me all the time Shinichi was angsting and crying mantears, he was just having a nice little nap inside Gotou, only to be reawakened upon his own cells reacting to him when Shinichi raised his stump of an arm, cue "awsum blu" lightning effects, and Migi reattaching himself and going "yo, I see you've released some super effective toxins in Gotou's body, this is a perfect chance to take this MFer down"??!?!?!?! Like, SERIOUSLY?! Oh my god...

And there's no choice to be made when Migi stated that if allowed to live, Gotou will just keep on killing, and yet Shinchi's having a dilemma about it and going "naah, I'll let nature take care of this" only to chop him up a minute later after all. Like, dafuq? Reiko's monologue about not bullying their kind felt really wasted there.

If the last ep airs and we get the reunion of Shinchi and Murano, during which the dumb b***h befriends Migi, and they happily walk off into the distance in the last ep I will seriously punch someone. So much ridiculousness going on lately enough as it is.

Shinichi's inner conflict on whetever to kill Gotou was weird. He just couldn't decide, eh?

Finale: Shinichi has sex with Migi for twenty minutes


Now there's a dilemma. If Shinichi fapped with right hand, would it still be considered as masturbation or not?

Anywyas, apart from the Shinichi's back-and-forth decicion making at the end, it was a solid episode.

The lightning effect when Migi reconnected was a bit over the top too..

Migi is back and we all got a lesson in man's place in the world. The return of Migi was fine but the heavy lesson on being human or inhumane to the world was a bit much. Oh well, they made the anime and I am just along for the ride. The ride was more fun in the first half of the series though.

That environment message was too much. What is this, Furn Gully?

And the part about Shinichi's conflict confused me. He seemingly comes to the conclusion that Gotou has just as much a right to live as he does, and turns to walk away. Then it cuts to a scene of Shinichi walking up to Gotou and finishing him off.
Shoot first, think never.

Well, pretty lame final boss. Don't see why Shinichi could just stab Gotou that easily once he'd worked out that weak spot. You could argue that Gotou was caught off-guard because of the 'revoloution' going on in his body but even that would sound way too convinient, a lot like how Migi seemed to fall asleep at certain points througout the whole show. Meh.

I guess the final episode could have something up its sleeve but this show has been pretty average ever since the police raid a few episodes ago.

Midori no Hibi was better.

Pure EPIC excellence this episode!
Looks like the predictions of some that Migi would merge with Gotou is correct.
The scene where Migi came back at Shinichi was glorifying I shouted!
They Migi & Shinichi talked about the condition of earth wherein humans where the cause of those toxic materials that even the Invincible parasite is just as fragile to human were interesting.

Loved the episode, although Shinichi being easily swayed and indecisive in the decision scene was a bit unnecessary, but I still loved the episode.

Nice fight with shinichi using his head, and I like how it showed his desperation. I thought it was shown beautifully.

I can't wait for the finale next week: "Parasyte"!

I don't see the complaints for this episode. I thought it was incredibly intense and powerful. Shinichi's conflict at the end was both unique and well-executed as far as I'm concerned, though I think it would've made for a more interesting end if he let Gotou survive then the series ended there.

I really can't fathom what the finale is going to be; I just hope it's satisfying and lives up to its potential.

No way Shinichi should've been able to stab him haha. I guess Gotou underestimated Shinichi and thought it'd be amusing to see Shinichi try to hurt him :P

Well, that was convenient... Migi is back and Gotou explodes. The fight was still pretty intense though.

So the lesson here is: Pollute more to kill the parasytes.

After seeing Tamiya Ryoko's parasyte splitting in half and entering another host, I figured that Migi might have tried something like that too

I found really interesting that Migi wanted Goto to die, but he didn't finish him off himself. It looks like he has developed some kind of morality after reading all these books and witnessing one of his own species desperately trying to live

I hope nothing bad happens in the last episode

The thing about parasytes is that they remind me so much of humans. The parasyte is an organism that is trying to survive in a hostile world. Many would see them as brutal savage creatures which they are as in shown throughout the show. But the parasytes do all they can to ensure the survival of their human body and make sure no harm comes to it.

It's in the same way that a human brain ensures the survival of our body and mind. The brain is so powerful and we can't fully understand it. When you study the brain you see just how powerful and awe inspiring it really is. But you also see just how "disconnected" we seem to be from our brains. People cringe when they see a real life brain and think it's gross. But it's what's keeping us alive. The brain does amazing things to keep the body alive. Cases have shown that the brain can create whole new memories to help someone cope with grief or trauma in their life. The brain is shown to pump endorphins around the body when a person is close to death. The brain does all it can to ensure the body and mind survives. it's amazing yet, the brain seems so "alien" in a way. As if it's another entity.

But what I'm trying to say is that the parasyte is very similar to the human in that they are both organisms trying to survive. The human can be so very brutal and horrific at times just like a parasyte to ensure his/her survival. Parasytes may be brutal and cruel by nature but humans too can be cruel and brutal by nature as well, as can be seen throughout our history. The thing is, there cannot be any good/evil side. Parasytes see humans as a threat to their survival and humans see parasytes as a threat to their survival. The good/evil approach is nothing but a bias view that humans see through. Gotou seemed very hungry for violence yet does that make him "evil"? It is in his nature. A human who sacrifices another to ensure the safety of his life, does that make him "evil"? It's up to the viewer to decide and that's what makes it a bias. Anyway I'm rambling like hell now and am going to stop now but those are some of my somewhat jumbled thoughts on the subject.

I believe parasytes will always continue to exist and that humans won't be able to fully wipe them out. They are just too elusive. There is a species finally superior to humans in almost every single way. Bigger, faster, smarter, stronger. That is the parasyte. They have become a part of the food chain. Prior to their existence, no animal in the ecosystem had humans as part of their diet but now, well, now there is. Parasytes were created for a reason and now they are here to stay. They've become a part of the food chain, a part of the animal kingdom.

Worst episode in the series. Gotou has super fast reaction times, and still couldn't stop Shinichi from stabbing him? Also, why would he get so close, if he could just extend his tentacles from far away and slice him to shreds?
Shinichi, who killed several parasytes in the past without a second thought, now pitying and almost letting live the most powerful and dangerous parasyte of all time, only to have a change of heart seconds later? Meh! Too much character and plot induced stupidity.

And Migi didn't even get his science right. Hydrogen cyanide is a gas, thus it would not be present in the metal as it would just float away. It could be several other toxins though, such as tetanus toxins from all the rust (though usually it takes some time for the bacteria to reproduce in the body enough for this).

Good on him for going back to finish the job. I was calling him a dumb ass for leaving this thing that could and probably would come after him again to live another day.
Matsuoka Yoshitsugu has hardly any range as a voice actor, and is grossly over-cast.

Yeah. I said it.

Ermahgaud, we must protect the Earth and preach pretentious speech, forcing it down the audience's throat!

lol That was an annoying scene at the end. I wish they had done it more naturally, preferably with more "show" than "tell". Anime is a visual medium. You shouldn't 'preach' like that.

Also, the final scene reminds me of the lone wanderer from the Fallout games. Couldn't help thinking, "War, war never changes..."
