Only in this anime is shown two-three characters just talking without being boring to watch.


You should check out monogatari, it does the same! Anyway, my memory is a little hazy but

The opening would be soo much better if not this terrible singing, it sounds so awful... Am I the only one who thinks so? xd Well besides that it's still the most interesting and intriguing series out of these I'm currently watching, at least for now. Can't wait for the next episode.

Cafe, weird place for a sex lesson.

Another great episode. I'm liking Tamiya so far. So it seems like not all of them wish to eat humans. Kind of getting a Tokyo Ghoul vibe from this. Wasn't expecting Tamiya to be having a human baby. Maybe because she is the host of one. That cliffhanger was great. Not going to lie I didn't think he would come through the window. I thought that would make to much sense in an anime. Anyway by the preview I think we might see Tamiya powers so I can't wait.

Awesome tension building episode, the music has totally grown on me too. Next episode is going to be a blast :D

I can't even imagine the changes Shinichi is going to undergo throughout this series. He's already slipping.

Manga readers, if the parasyte only lives in the head (brain), is it ever explained why they need to do cannibalism ? I don't see why it's such a useful foodsource when they could eat the same food the species they're taking over is eating (if indeed, the rest of the body is human, as in the reproductive organs AND the digestive system).

Also, seems to me a baby born from a person who only eats human meat wouldn't be very healthy or ''normal''.

This all seemed trivial to me in the first two episodes but now that they've introduced the possibility of reproduction, why not explain the need for cannibalism :/ ?

It's just 3 episodes in. Just wait until they explain it or read the manga. They explain it eventually.

Also, is it just me or is the girl with the pony tail and freckles never in the manga and was just added to the anime to crush on the MC?

Tamiya is strangely hot. Lol at the waitress who dropped her tray when she said her and A-chan tried having sex.

The ending of the episode though. What a great buildup, and the soundtrack really complimented it. Looking forward to Shinichi and Migi tearing shit up.

It was nothing but a bio-scientific experiment for her to use his and her own body to see what would happen. She never thinks A is her mate.

I think I've found the fall season's best show. This anime has me hook line and sinker. I literally swore at my TV at the end of this one; cursing the fact that I have to wait another week to see what happens next. Absolutely great episode and show. Can't wait to see Migi and Shinichi team up!

That Tamiya scary face holy shit...

Migi continues to completely carry this anime.

Fucking Mr. A cutting through people like a knife through butter.

Something tells me that Murano might die.

That OST when Mr. A broke through that window holy shit.

I see that this anime is now beginning to use trap music. When they said they were modernizing this manga, they really ment EVERYTHING.

THAT FUCKING CLIFFHANGER GAHHHHH!!!!

This is a very interesting anime, to say the least, and the episode was pretty good. Tamiya is a mixture of creepy and hot. I hope A gets wrecked next time, he's just another mindless alien, but i'm really curious what they are.

Still can't get over the farting sound when Migi extends, though. That cliffhanger...

I'm really curious about the life-cycle of the parasites now. Basically all we know is that they have at least two stages, the crawling earwig-like thing and the implanted parasite stage. They try to take over the brain of the target/host species, and when they do they modify the body in the immediate area of the brain (or wherever else they land--like migi--if they miss their target), and basically become that individual for the purposes of ambushing other members of that species. Big questions are how do they identify that dominant species, where do they come from, why is their diet cannibalistic, and how do they reproduce? Since it would seem that they are adapting their hosts tissues (including the brain) and making use of it, I would guess that a good part of Tamiya's superior intelligence probably comes from the original individual--but that's just speculation. So it would seem that a really successful infestation would be when the parasite simply takes over the personality, adds their special abilities, and adapts to human society (and periodically engages in hunting behaviour). Not just a horror show, but also a scientific mystery that needs to be solved....

And it goes without saying but this is one damn good series.

Another amazing episode! No dubstep this week, but the OST was still great, or even better!

I'm in love with the opening already, each episode it just feels more awesome!

Animation was fluid and remarkarble, Based Madhouse, and i saw some CG people,they blended into the ambient and didn't felt out of place, so i'm cool with it.

Shinichi snapped at Murano, somehow i feel like he's slowly changing...Hype!

An interesting character is introduced, that teacher seems to think differently from her species, and wants to have a 'human life'?

Also parasyte+parasyte= normal Human baby.I guess it makes sense, since the parasytes only take control over the victim's brain (?)

It looks like there is a anime only character? I'm not a manga reader so i'm not sure, but i wonder what role she'll have in this, from what i heard the manga is really old, to the point of some things feeling out of place or weird, so they 'Modernized' the anime adaptation,so...Harem maybe? Lol xD



Man, this way Madhouse will end up taking over my whole Top 5 xD. Remarkable episode, 5/5.

If you have a heart transplanted, or an artificial heart, does it do the same as the previous one?
If you have a transplanted heart, do your kids "inherit" it?

The more with Tamiya, having a parasite-to-host pattern different from the rest.

"Mingling" requires other condition than reproduction, which is the result/conclusion of this experiment of hers.

oh my god this is getting so interesting! I would never have thought that parasytes could be intelligent like Tamiya.
They even brought up a point that had never crossed my mind: parasyte mating/sex.
I just love everything about the plot.
...Even the fact that that ponytail girl likes Shinichi :> I like her more than Murano.

I also really like the new character, Tamiya. She seems really interesting the way he doesn't want to be an enemy and just observe.

It's not that. The Parasytes just don't have an effect on their reproductive organs. It's probably just normal reproductive business.

Does Shinichi's character design remind anyone else of Daniel Radcliffe? Or, more specifically, Harry Potter during the latter Harry Potter films.

Anyway, FUCKING CLIFFHANGERS ARE WOAT.
