| THANK YOU BASED MADHOUSE! :) Op and Ed were good, full metal/rock then mellow balled. The paraytes don't feel empathy? a doomed species :( |
 |
| Madhouse delivers yet again with another nice adaptation (although this is only the 1st episode), with yet again brilliant animation. I think my only complain was with Migi's voice. I always imagined it to have a more serious (male ish) voice. |
| This is show is pretty awesome |
| I'm so, so glad they didn't censor this anime. Really looking forward to the next episodes and I hope they don't alter too many things from the manga. |
 |
| Wow, that was great. I actually love the Parasyte in his hand, it's voice is pretty nice Also the OP sounds badass |
| This is awesome! The hype is real :) Dat OP tho!!! |
| The first episode was really amazing, i didn't read the manga so i didn't know it was this good. Can't wait for the next episodes. |
| Well done Madhouse, everything was great. I love the gore theme of this anime (That's why I wanna watch this) Awesome OP and I really like the ED. I don't like the dubstep OST because it doesn't go with the theme, but I guess it sounds more awesome listening to dubstep on fighting scenes. Hirano Aya did a great job of voicing Migi. Shimazaki's nerdy type voice matches the character of Shinichi. Really great episode. I wanna watch more, can't wait till next week. |
| B-but the hand is really cute '~' |
 |
| This was a pretty good start, hopefully it can keep up the quality. I really needed that bit of weirdness in this season and this show delivers. |
| Read the manga recently, this will be a tough anime to watch. Pros: Good animation for the fights. Designs are mostly ok. Undecided: Rearranging the order of events. Cons: Moving the setting to the modern age was unneeded. The entire OST + OP + ED is unfitting. I expected something akin to Monster. CGI... The boob grab... I need a lot more time to get a good opinion on this. |

| Jojolion anime when? |
| Surprised to see Aya Hirano voicing 'it'. Anyways, this show looks amazing so far but I've never been really good with this kind of gore and such, this show will either desensitize me towards it or be too much for me. |
Nidhoeggr said: Z4k said: Surprised you didn't say anything about that boob grab. I decided to ignore that with all my might... I can sort of see what they were thinking when they put that in since in the manga he touches someone awkwardly too, however by today's standards it wouldn't lead to him being called a pervert at all so they changed it to a boob grab... Still.. wish they were at least more original with it. Make his hand move up and down her side or something, not the boob grab trope... Still it makes sense since Migi just wanted to study the anatomy of humans (Hence why he was looking it up in class) so I excuse it... Though won't praise it. |
| Damn that was an awesome first episode. This is looking to be one of the best anime of the year. We got Parasyte and FS/N both airing at the same time, this month is going to be awesome. Also I really freaking want the OST that was playing on the preview at the end of the episode. |
 |
| Best Fall 14' episode I've seen so far besides FSN ep 0.. Music and the creepy atmosphere mixed into daily life is really well done. Along with the mystery of what those alien things are and our MC having to come to terms with it. Lets see if the anime can keep up the good work. |
 |
| My god that was amazing. That car stopping scene reminded me of twilight LOL. I laughed at the dubstep soundtrack at first but holy shit they made it work. I wasn't expecting to like a horror series so much but crap, Kiseijuu is great. |

| Haven't read the manga or anything but it was probably a boob because Shinichi's body didnt have boobs and Migi was curious about it. |

It's a minor gripe, nothing show breaking. lol |
| I've read the manga a year or two ago and I really loved it because of the overall theme of coexistence of humans and another intelligent species. I was glad to see in the opening Shin without his glasses that he didn't wear in the manga, we also see his more manly hair style. But if I recall correctly, they've changed the order of events right? This is nothing new for anime adoptions, even MAL's number one anime FMAB had a filler episode as first ep. I really hope though they won't skip the content of the very first chapter; certain very interesting question about mankind which made me love this manga in the first place. |
| ... That was disturbing...... I don't know what else to say. It was amazing, but disgusting. I think the dog is what pushed it over the edge for me. I always thought I'd prefer no censors, but hmm..... Maybe some censoring is good sometimes. Still a solid 9-10/10. Really impressed. |
  |
| Wow, this is looking very promising! I'm definitely gonna enjoy this anime, can't wait to see more! |
| I found it disturbing but the presentation was kinda stupid to me. It seems I'm the only one here :S In either case, the animation was amazing and the "horror" parts were great as well. Surely one of the things I'll pick this season. |
 » Escapism. |
| this anime is disgusting....in a good way that right hand is so adorable I'm gonna die of kawaii overload |

| Good start, no censorship, and interesting characters. Definitely a must-watch this season. No idea why people are complaining about the boob grab ... MAL users will find any excuse to gripe I guess. |
| brilliant 1st episode. i was hooked. also, it was refreshing that there wasn't much censorship |
| Pretty good first episode. |
 |
| great first episode |

| Amazing first episode. Great animation, and most importantly no heavy censorship. |
| Best non-sequel season I've seen yet this fall. |
| This was great! I'm looking forward to more! |
| That was Amazing! 5/5 Also that OP. |
| I wasn't expecting to like this, so I'm really surprised that I did. Felt a bit rushed, but the simplicity of the main character is refreshing. |
| This doesn't even feel like the manga, the overall tone was completely changed, although the series does tend to get a bit darker since the beginning starts off a bit as a comedy then slowly progresses into something really dark as they introduce more characters and present the theme the manga was throwing. I hope they don't change other things that may hurt the realism the manga had. |

| Probably my favorite opening of this season and the art/animation is really good. I held off on the manga specifically because when I wanted to get into it I heard there was this adaptation coming. I'll probably go back and read it, but so far it looks like I was right to place my trust in Madhouse. A lot of good looking series this season |

LOAD said: Haven't read the manga or anything but it was probably a boob because Shinichi's body didnt have boobs and Migi was curious about it. Interestingly enough, I read the corresponding chapters, and it wasn't a boob or even ass...........it was her shoulder. It's an older manga, so maybe japan was a little more conservative during the 90s, but I'm assuming that it was changed into a boob so it actually made sense when she got offended. |
|
| Amazing first episode. I didn't think I would like the parasite, but Migi is actually quite adorable. Creepy dog though. |
