Hmm.. if that's how you look at it I guess that's your choice. I really didn't see it being done in a mean spirited way though. It's not telling you to not eat meat, Migi was basically using logic and facts to point out that Shinichi is wrong for calling parasites demons. It's more about the human perspective rather than insulting humans themselves.

I probably wouldn't have even given it a second thought if not for the next scene having the MC preach about how animals are living things just like us so don't harm them. That's when it really clued me in.

I agree with you that Migi's wrong. Animals don't have souls/consciousness, which is the key difference between them and humanity. However, I don't see animal abuse as being good either. There's no good reason to torture an animal, and that's what Shinichi was stopping. It's kinda like killing animals for the sake of killing them (hunting for sport rather than food/materials, for example). That's the sort of stuff I'm against. Even though the agenda might be there, I don't think it means much coming from Migi alone... It'll be a different story if Shinichi suddenly stops eating his bacon, though.

Anyway, I forgot to mention it in the last episode discussion, but I really don't like the OP. I skipped by it this time. Dubstep doesn't and hasn't ever bothered me in fighting scenes, though, so I have no problems with the OST.

The first part was mildly humorous and incredibly creepy. Shinichi better be glad he isn't married or anything. I think I missed the explicit part people are saying was present, and I'm glad I did. I don't want to see that sort of thing. e.e

The interaction between Migi and the full-human parasite was interesting. I wonder if it was legitimately trying to help Migi out or not.

Murano can tell something's different. It seems a bit strange for her to keep asking Shinichi if he's himself, though. Their relationship seems to be progressing smoothly.

Good episode overall.

This is more interesting that I thought.
Great mix of horror, drama, comedy, and a bit of romance.

I really liked the piano OST. As for the dubstep, not an avid listener of that genre although I'm listening to some lately. I can't really tell if it's out of place or what but it somewhat give this "sci-fi" feel which is fine with me. The switching of music was weird. I'll probably get used to it later. OP was ok. Maybe it will grow on me in the next episodes. ED was catchy.
That out-of-nowhere mushroom!! So much lol. Toilet scene was hilarious too.
What I liked the most here is the interaction of Migi & Izumi. Such a big hint for more psychological drama themes in the series.

Loving this series so far.

LOL dat bathroom scene. Migi trying to give Shinichi a handjob, and the other guy thinking he was talking to his "Johnson".
And does Satomi actually know something, rather than just having a suspicion? Because anyone else who saw a plain and normal guy like Shinichi suddenly catching multiple projectiles mid-air like he's superman, would be more than just impressed.

Wow. I didn't even see the Penis-hand until the screenshot. I wonder how I missed it...

Anyways this was a really solid 2nd episode. The series is a must watch for me now. Relationship building between Shinichi and Migi was nice, the comedy parts were well put, and the fight scene was so one-sided. I expected the full Parasyte to at least put up a fight.

I loved it when Migi started playing with Izumi's dick. That probably would have sounded wrong without the context.

Wow, that stone-catching thing was totally badass!
Just like the car stopping thing in episode 1.

It's like he has superpowers in his right hand. Just like Touma from To Aru Majutsu no Index. (For reference, I like that character, that's why I like everything that reminds me of him or his power).

And Murano totally knows! "You are Shinichi, right?"
She knows about the parasite thing or feels something, I tell you!

When will Shinichi look awesome? I mean, he's already badass because of the rock-catching and the dubstep OST.
As of now, Migi is creepy, yet freakin' hilarious.

Great episode!

I can forgive the OST. At least it's not blaring up in my ears.

The meeting with the second parasite was more about the philosophical conflict (Shinichi & Migi's discussion about survival & human morals) & the fear of possibly being betrayed by Migi than about the fighting itself; and it was well executed IMO.

This show is pretty solid. I'm not familiar with the Manga, but I enjoy its quirkiness mixed with horror elements.

Animals getting abused is my trigger. Fuck those MFers.

Shinichi and Migi vs. the other parasytes and bullies.
I like the bonding between Shinichi and Murano, and between him and Migi.
A phenomenal adaptation so far. :D

Ah, HanaKana, I fear that your character won't live for much longer, like in first season of Tokyo Ghoul.
Wasn't it just a weird though that Murano changed their hands? It's like she knew something.

I think Migi's my favourite character, lmao. I don't recall watching any R-17 animes yet so I was really surprised by the masturbating scene. But I loved it, thought it was ingenious (by anime standards). I love the humour of this series and the sheer unpredictability of Migi. Shinchi's the straight man of the comedy duo and it works.

But when it comes down to it, Migi's not a comedy schtick. Migi would have been another killer if he succeeded. The anime is funny at one point and then slaps us with a scene where Migi threatens to incapacitate Shinchi, reminding the viewers that this is a Stockholm syndrome situation with a codependent jailor. Forget dick jokes, that's ingenious.

And then relocation and tension and Migi saves Shinchi's life anyways and the wub wub wubf and the character development from them BOTH (in Izumi's case we don't even know if it's a good direction)

aoihsdioahd 10000/10 I love this show

I liked this episode a lot more than the first and that's always a good sign. The stone catching scene was epic tbh and Migi ripping that parasyte to shreds was really cool to watch as well: I'm enjoying the bonding between them even though Migi is such a curious perv sometimes

See? Migi is useful as hell. Aids you in basketball and fistfights and damn it even tried to jerk him off too lol.

Won't be long till Migi learns something about empathy but anyway if Shinichi's planning on killing every infected human he meets it's risky because someone might see him slaughter somebody and might he be suspected as the mincemeat murderer. Well we'll see.

OMG I HATE THAT MURANO BITCH SO MUCH. So she saw these stupid kids throwing rocks at that poor cat and wanted to just GO AWAY TO NOT LOOK? How selfish can you get? Ok so I know she was probably weaker than them but she could still help it. Thats what I'd do anyways and I'm a very weak girl and that's what anyone I'd have ANY respect for would do. This series started amazing but now I'll probably stop watching because of Murano alone since she probably won't go away. Why do anime creators need to add these annoying stupid girl characters and destroy otherwise great series? Just why?
