Excellent final, completed the sentimentality of the last episodes and showed that humans can also be monsters like the parasites, Shinichi had to face the two, and the first half of the episode showed her ramblings about life on the planet, and in the end it reaches a point hope saving Murano

The first half of the anime was more lively and dynamic, already the second half had more sentimentality and protagonist's thoughts, I liked the deep themes addressed in the anime, I think it encourages those who watch to think about it

I certainly recommend the anime to all, excellent plot, great characters and good development, now that the anime finished I will definitely read the manga ..

yeah, yeah the ending could have been better but for the most part i absolutely adored this anime and I think I was definitely going to give it 10 I think I still might and I hope I wasn't the only one who was more excited about Migi still being alive then Murano. I was kind of hoping Shinichi could join the Parasyte police team I think that would have been pretty cool to watch. Amazing that his last fight was against a human, using another as protection showing that they are the true monsters but Murano and Shinchi love each other and that's what it means to be human. I feel like even though he captured Murano and there was this awesome scene the only thing that went fast for me this ep was when Migi went to sleep to do whatever but then I actually liked the slow pace

I'm actually very frustrated right now.

OK, there is to many unanswered questions with this anime. For example, why was the parasites created? Why did they never explain the thing with Kana?

Life forms don't really need a reason to exist. They just do.

Plus the final episode. Jesus fucking Christ. Murano, you just saw two people getting brutally murdered in front of you while you have a fucking knife in your neck, almost fell of a building then in the last few seconds they laugh about it? Are you fucking kidding me!? Ugh, I'm just so frustrated right now.

That was a little weird. I wouldn't be in the mood to laugh about anything after seeing two people get brutally murder, and dodging death myself.

I thought this was a great anime overall. Happy that good anime can still come out in a sea of generic shit. 9/10 The only thing I wish to see was a deep conversation with his dad, but that's a small gripe.

Been a fun anime through and through. Parasyte sort of felt like "guaranteed entertainment" for me, and I can't say that about most airing shows I've watched. It doesn't reach any masterpiece-levels but that's fine. Giving it a solid 8/10 for now.

While I liked the beginning episodes better, I thought Parasyte was ultimately a really good series from beginning to end. People really turned on it around the middle, though. Thanks to Parasyte, I hope we get more adaptations of older seinen manga in the future.

Also, props to Aya Hirano on a wonderful performance as Migi.

Definitely more tame than in the manga...

Still not a huge fan of the ending, just seems a bit rushed. To go from full involvement with the parasytes to zero just seems odd to me.

I thought this was a great ending. Although I would've liked a but more answers, I liked the way things turned out in the end. I think it would've been total bullshit if Migi left and then both Shinichi and Murano both died.

8/10, may bump up to a 9/10. Some parts of the show were meh, but overall this was an exceptional show. Definitely one of the major highlights of 2014.

Did they forget to add the knife sound effects when he killed those two people on the roof or was it on purpose?
It was a nice touch. Noticed it too and half expected what always happens in animation. Some over-the-top sound effect.

Oh shit, I mentionned in my last episode post that there was that murderer still running, but that they would probably not solve that subplot... Am I someking of wizard? I autoproclaim myself thy anime wizard!

More seriously, it was a nice closure, not answering all question, but you know, how Shinichi end up knowing where the parasytes comes from? That kind of question is out of the reach, since parasytes doesn't even know it themself. If they were created by humans, their creator could already be dead, or whatever. I guess that kind of question could have been answered if the main something other than a student, but the overall atmosphere wouldn't have been the same.

The series had some flaws, the story at some point for example, but in overall, it gave some emotions I didn't felt in a long time, like fear or even despair. I think that the episode 5 was pure genius in term of shock factor, and yet, predictability. We all knew Shinichi mom would die at some point, but it happened so quickly and such in a brutal way, that I couldn't help but be shaken up. I found that the way they humanized the characters and the parasytes was also brillantly done. To me, does it deserve to be in the top 20? No, not really. In the top 50? Yeah, to some extand. In the top 100? Definitely.

Gave the series back one point to 9/10 due to a nice last episode. I actually liked Murano for the first time since.......ever. I bought into her death so was pleasantly surprised at the twist outcome.

This was an amazing anime! I loved that they ended it exactly the same way as the manga! Migi has to be my all time favorite character of the Fall season!

Overall I gave this anime a 10/10! Loved the OP and ED songs, the characters, the story, and the character development! I don't think they could have adapted this any better!
So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS!

two things
,
One. Obviously it was the mayor, you know the one who turned out to be human who the parasytes were protecting, that had involvement in their creation, and he clearly gave a monologue as to why they were created, and Shinichi reinforced this a couple times later. How is it that hard to interpret something?

Two. Dude that said Shinichi would have fallen off the roof as well......... -_-. She probably weights 100 pounds less than Shinichi, and he's still a half breed monster even with out Migi. But that's not the case, obviously, he thanks Migi, because he missed her, and Migi morphed and grabbed Murano. Or so that;'s what it lead us to believe.

Couple of idiots right there.......

Pretty decent show.

As I expected, nothing about what (or who?) made the parasytes was explained, that's what the series should've been focused on, but, the series was good and entertaining overall. 7/10

Damn it had a weird ending. I mean Migi went sleeping for good, but comes out when it emerges. That's just weird. So with that they eliminated all the Parasytes (or at least they didn't come out in public anymore).

I think it were good that Murano didn't die in the end. That would make it very sad. Shinichi would have been devastated. I mean, he have lost enough people already.

But I think it had a weird ending. I think it would have been better to end it with Gotou's death. But oh well, the manga did end it like that too (apparently). At least the author got rid of the psycho in this series lol. And finally at the last moment Murano found out the real truth about him.

Overall I think it was a interesting idea, but they screwed up at the end. So overall I think it doesn't deserve anymore than 7 from me. Were a little disappointed with the end. I think it were pretty ok, though they could have made it better.

I don't get why people hated this ending but it wasn't anything great either...I still liked it though

Overall this was a good series but there are a good amount of important things that never got answered such as where the parasytes came from and why did they come to earth etc

Animation and Music were great for the most part and in terms of character development it was good for some persons (Namely Reiko, Migi/Shinichi and Gotou) but the others felt lackluster or didn't get enough development

8/10


Murano shouldve died, then Shinichi shouldbe gone insane then he kills himself.

A tragic ending wouldve fit the series.


Agreed. that would be cool since we doesn't see that a lot. lolz

I definitely loved this series. The first half was much more intense than the second half but then the second half delved deeper into some of the implications of the human/parasite relationship that I really enjoyed as well. I thought Shinichi was a solid character and I enjoyed watching his story.

Actually, saving her was a better ending. It's implied that Shinichi missed Murano's hand, but Migi may have just acted in his own self interest once more to keep his host alive and healthy :-)

Really enjoyed this show. Although what I think this anime lacks is a climax and a conclusive ending. And Im Im pretty sure we are all curious where the parasites came from.
