WARNING: MAJOR SPOILERS (episodes 1-12) Please don't put any spoilers of episodes after episode 12!


What the f***k!!!!! They fucking killed kana off????? She was the best girl in the show, besides maki maybe. That Murano girl is so stupid, bitchy, and annoying. Why the hell would shinichi pick her? Alright I'll admit at first I thought kana was a horrible girl since her guys beat up shinichi. But then all her actions after that changed. I was holding on to the last shread of hope of shinichi and kana getting together. But when I saw him kiss that other girl, I knew I was screwed.

I freaking waited so long long for this to finish airing so I could watch it all in one go. But now after seeing kana die I am really and hating this anime right now. Unless it so happens that she comes back to life I don't think my impression of the anime will change. What the hell were the producers thinking??? Hey why don't we just kill one of the MC's love interests and screw everyone that was supporting her ship?!?!?!

Is anyone as mad as I am right now? What did you think of their horrible decision to kill her off? Oh and please no spoilers, I am only on episode 12 right now.

Lol, I realized Kana was getting more desperate as time went on, maybe even giving off a yandere-ish vibe. I wish I could have seen how that would've ended up.

I was not suprised she died.She was stupid and she kept deluding herself that Shinichi was hers even though Shinichi kept warning her not to follow her power.She was getting creepier and creepier with each episode even though it was clear Shinichi had feelings only for Murano.She wore a ring made of Shinichi's hair for god's sake!She would have turned crazy sooner or later

This. Shinichi went out of his way to tell her to not follow her special 'sense' but she of course had to ignore his warnings and decide not to even take her cell phone with her.

Kana deserves a Darwin award.

Kana deserves a Darwin award.


First of all, Kana having a ring of Shinichi's hair was completely anime original. Don't go calling her creepy for shit Madhouse added that wasn't true to her character.

She also doesn't take a phone because the manga's from the early 90s and teenagers didn't have mobile phones then. Once again, that's all Madhouse's fault... for trying to modernise something that just plain doesn't work in the modern day.

Kana also wasn't "deluding herself" about anything... She had a special connection to him via her power and HE CARED FOR HER. I'm pretty sure you weren't watching the show if you didn't get that Shinichi considered her an important friend and wanted to protect her. She got that her love was unrequited (she even says so herself) but my god, she was a TEENAGE GIRL dealing with a maaaajor crush fuelled by supernatural powers. The anime really bastardised her and Mitsuo's character arcs and personalities and her storyline isn't nearly as impactful as it was in the manga but this dullass misogynistic "Kana was stupid and creepy" bs you hear everywhere is annoying as fuck.

Besides, she followed her power because she DIDN'T BELIEVE SHINICHI. I mean fuck, would you? Feeling like you're a little bit psychic/have a spiritual connection to someone you love is a whole different kettle of fish from being told "random humans are shapeshifting aliens that kill and eat people". Of course you'd just laugh to yourself like "OK Shinichi, whatever you say". That's the sort of thing that really needs some sorta proof to back it up. You can't just say something that outlandish and expect people to actually believe you. There's also the fact that Kana's a risk-taking delinquent... Shinichi knows this, that's why he starts telling her the truth in the first place. It's a very last ditch desperate attempt to get Kana to do as she's told, when we're supposed to know this is something she doesn't do. In fact, this is one of the many things Madhouse fucked up about her portrayal, since in the manga she is clearly someone that does what she wants when she wants. She's a very strong personality that doesn't take shit from anyone, even Mitsuo, who's so much more than just some skinny loser in a hat that seems to still be dating high school girls like he is in the anime. He was supposed to be a student the same age as Kana, one of the endearing delinquent tropes prominent in things like Yu Yu Hakusho and a pretty tough bancho (delinquent leader) that's renowned for his fighting prowess. Him and Kana are almost comic relief in the manga, very easy to fall in love with, and have a lot of banter that the anime either portrayed incorrectly or didn't include at all. So yeah, I don't like to be that one person, but please read the manga if you want to actually understand their characters.

In the manga, Kana dies the same way she died in the anime, through her stupid actions. She deserved to die for being really dumb. She was oblivious to all the news about parasyte murders and parasytes in general. Shinichi gave her clear warnings and even confessed that he was partly a parasyte. Shinichi made a mistake by not showing the physical capabilities he gained such as jumping really high as proof he was not normal. The power of love blinded Kana to everything around her which lead to her stupid death.

Wish both of them died. It would have been interesting to see a more cold/calculating Shinji, and further develop the characters of Migi and Shinji, maybe even to the point that Migi becomes the voice of humanity (as in humane actions, not the species)

Shinji. Lel.

The series builds up to nothing and the last episode was just ridiculous; none of its potential character could have saved it.

EDIT: i just finished this series, and im mixed. i really enjoyed it, but it wasnt that great for being one of the highest ranked anime on this series.

-Reiko Tamura was my fave character, i found her so interesting,


-Satomi Murano was annoying to me throughout, i didnt like her nearly as much as i liked kana

-i started to get bored in the final few episodes, as it got a little predictable

-the final episode was pretty random to me

Meh. Kana sucked to be honest. Easily the worst character on the show.

Let's face it and be real. If Kana looked like Murano's best friend (the one with the glasses) and she didn't have the 6th sense, then she would be the most hated person on the show. The problem is, most girls are desperate for a "Strong" female character that they latch onto to any girl with more power than the rest. Then the guys obviously just find her hot, so she has that "beauty equals goodness" trope working out for her.

I honestly wanted to like Kana because I'm actually pretty shallow. I tend to like the more attractive people in general, and let's face it, this: is more attractive than this:

I honestly thought I was the most shallow person ever since I liked Sinbad from Magi, while most people hated him. I also liked Elizabeth and Tsubaki from Soul Eater because of their looks. Though seeing the reviews and opinions on this anime makes me think I'm not all that shallow. I have limits and Kana broke them, while most people still worship the ground she walks on.

I'm glad that She died. She's a creep!!

Shinichi warned him for how many times but she keeps on pushing herself to him. She already saw Shinichi and Murano kissing but it didn't stop her from her delusions. She even lied to him that She can tell Shinichi from the others so that Shinichi would stop telling him to stop following him or her powers.

I'm really glad that she died because of her foolishness but kinda mad that she died until her last dying breath thinking to herself that she was so special and that Shinchi was her soulmate.

That Lady is CRAZY!!!

"so she deserve to die"

Nobody deserves to die.
She's just blinded by the power of love (I was a little surprised when she began to fall in love) and doesn't believe Shinichi.
If someone tell you to not approach somebody cuz x reason, i'm pretty sure you will be a little confused, so that's why Shinichi explained to her his real nature, but unlucky he wasn't able to show Migi.

If maybe, she saw Migi, maybe she would be alive.

I'm just sad about the fact we will never know why she can detect the parasytes (and why she did the same dream a few times). She could be a mi-human, mi-parasyte too.

And yeah I liked a lot her design ;_;

Kana can go fuck herself. She didn't have shit to say when Shinichi was weak and was bullied by her douchebag boyfriend Mitsuo. Murano actually cares about Shinichi.

And she didn't listen to him or take any precautions either.

I honestly think they butchered Kana's character. I know the show isn't a romance based show but they still had a love interest !! And I just found Murano to be more and more annoying. I honestly think the producers had Kana's character like that because they planned to kill her and they did. But I CANT BELIEVE THEY DID THAT. I thought her character had so much potential;-;-; but she was killed off just like that ????? and for what. Just so Shinichi can say that one line or just so Shinichi and Murano can be final???? For there to just be one less character??? I need a proper reason like dude are you serious

I thought kana would be with Shinichi and have a relationship, but until eps 12 when he approached the parasyte he thought was Shinichi, I thought when Shinichi came he would save her but it is unfortunate that he was killed just like that, if only he ran as fast as possible without having to stare at Parasyte for a few seconds maybe Shinichi will protect her 😭, maybe yes she is a naughty girl who is stubborn and her death is proof that she is wrong, what I hate here is why she should die ... why .. !!! if he were still alive maybe he would regret because of his stupidity he almost got killed and maybe he would change :). sorry I just have an opinion, but honestly I am very sad because he died even though he was just a fictional character. 😭🥀

Kana was a stupid character, she was a freaky stalker who followed Shinichi around wherever. And made lies to Shinichi. She literally had a ring of Shinichi's own HAIR!! Sure it was sad she died, but that how the story was supposed to progress. The whole manga and anime would have been ruined if she survived, all the chain of events wouldn't have happened and would be completely different from the manga. So I am grateful that she died, that was how the story was supposed to progress. Now you people freaking out can have your own opinions, but I think I am grateful the people who worked on the anime still had her die.

For real!! Just jumped into this show, tho have been seeing it around for quite some time. To be sincere Kana's death was quite ah turn off for me. Tho it was too sudden but still a hell of a plot twist.

I just added this to one of my Top watched Animes

But for real, this anime ain't getting the hype and respect it deserves
