There are already two live action movies. I’ve heard mixed things, but I can’t imagine Parasyte working outside of animation.

I have gotta wait to see how it actually goes. Korean adaption sometimes really suck as it derailed from the original concept.
Also, I'd love if they reuse the soundtrack "Next to you", it just fits the Korean theme much.

Oh boy can’t wait to see the transformations 💀

Friends are nothing more than the people who you spend the fun, yet meaningless times with. When those times get rough, they aren’t there to support you.

Well they have adapted few movies very badly like Deathnote, that I agree with but we can't just ignore their amazing adaptation like The Sandman.

korean dramas are usually pretty high quality tho, and same with netflix live action sfx. It's actually a pairing that go super well hand in hand, wish we saw more Korean live action adaptations of anime.

Parasite: The Grey was great! Easily one of the best anime live actions we've had! Especially from netflix! Any fan of Parasyte should absolutely check it out.

It doesn't come close to the anime in quality or depth, but it's a decent watch

the live action was really good, especially the fights were much more fluid than the anime with the movements and the cgi parasites, and the protagonist was great too
