Bullying.. of course. 9.9/10 anime about high school kids have bullying in them. But this doesn't really happen that much in Japan right? I hear they are nice people.

See? I freaking knew his mom's gonna die. And it looks like his dad died too. What now huh? Shinichi? Fucking man up already and kill those monsters. Because I doubt his parents will be the last ones to die. I wanna see him become like Kaneki. A pushover pussy who became a killer machine later on. Wait now that I think about it this show has a lot of similarities with Tokyo Ghoul

So yall just gon act like Shinichi not only watched his girl get grabbed up and got his ass completely beat in a 1 on 1 by the dude who had it set up (then got saved from the situation getting even worse by the girl that was hanging with them, who later befriends him, and some random dude from his school rollin up w/ his pack out of nowhere), but also failed to get the box afterwards after tryna be smooth and then later in the episode had to see his mom taken over by a parasyte.

On top of that earlier in the episode he got his ass beat senseless by the same dude tryna play the hero w/ this dude from school who swung on him.
Shinichi had one of the shittiest days in anime history, son...Smh.

The L's just stacked up on the guy.

I been watched this whole thing but I just found out after going back all this shit happened in the same episode.

Shinichi needed nothing more than to be on suicide watch after this jawn.

Daaaaaaaaaaaaang. That was unfortunate, to say the least. I almost felt like crying at the end. A girl who can sense the monsters, dead mother, missing father, poor Shinichi in denial, and Migi the only one is managing to keep his composure, as per usual.

To be honest, most of the episode I was just thinking who the female victim was gonna be, but once were saw Migu's host's parents where the parasite was i was like "oh shit gg"
Maybe I should call Migu's host Shinichi for now on since he seems to have became his own host and he himself is a parasyte, I think I'll find for sure next episode.

I got mad at Shinichi at first for not being able to let Migi eliminate the parasite, but then if it were my mom, I'd hesitate big time too :( Still, he has to know that it needs to get destroyed for his mom's body not to get used and so she could rest in peace....

I hope his dad is pulling thru though >< that way there's at least someone else who knows about the parasite monsters and Shinichi won't have to deal with them on his own D':

I knew that idiot was going to crash his car.

If I had Migi, I would have beat their ass.

Kana. That is all I will say.

lol I thought the Parasite was going to take Kana's body later on after she left.

lol at Shinichi trying to smash by asking Murano to over. Her respond was hilarious. Then Migi made it funnier.

Damn. I knew something was going to happen to his parents once they left.

At the 18 minute mark, I wasn't aware of the time, but when that theme played, it reminded me of Gundam Seed, and made me think the episode was ending.

GOD DAMN that was good.
One more parasyte infected character and one more character that can "feel" the parasyte infected people. That's interesting.

The death flags were real, as Shininchi's parents both died D:

Really wonder if he can survive with that pierced chest. So much Hype Right Nowww.

And this is where my engagement is impaired. This episode was like a double whammy of "let's motivate the male protagonist by hurting women who are important to him". Not only was Murano restrained by a street gang (whose motivations for beating up the bully weren't revealed), his mom is killed by a parasite. I just find it hard to take a series seriously when it pulls maneuvers like this.

It's not all bad, I suppose. The street gang angle was properly introduced a little while ago, so at least it didn't come out of left field: bully punches Shinichi, and now Shinichi saves bully from gang, and gang takes revenge on Shinichi by hurting his girlfriend. Though the reason why the gang had a beef with the bully was not revealed, so there is at least one hole in this chain of events.

I also appreciated that the same parasite that killed and replaced Nobuko was shown before. But this is all doesn't remedy the fact that the emotional impact of Nobuko's death and Murano getting rescued just didn't really hit me. I would have needed more time to really get to know these two characters to get really attached to them.

Basically, I was annoyed by Nobuko getting killed off for cheap drama, and Murano used as a damsel in distress. I guess Shinichi's dad is probably not dead, since he wasn't shown after he called Shinichi from the phone booth.

Shinichi facing the parasite in Nobuko's body also didn't have much of an effect on me. Maybe it was the distracting dubstep or Shinichi's hammy reactions.

Well, at least Migi is still entertaining. And while Kana is kind of a brat, I don't mind her for now.



Oh yeah, because how his girlfriend or mom are doing doesn't even matter. Only what the male protagonist feels is important amirite lmao



Meh. I was more annoyed because they didn't even call the cops after they were saved by their schoolmates. Or why didn't Kana call the cops? But I guess In anime land, the only purpose of the police is to arrive after someone has been killed.

I mean I guess it's normal for Shinichi to react that way about his mom being a parasite and all, but it was still painful to watch him not accept it.. well I really hope this is the turning point for the MC because up until now, he's just been really annoying.

Dang, this episode was intense >_< That new girl Kana is interesting, it seems she can sense the parasites even though she's just human. I guess the point of the bullying thing was to show how Shinichi and Migi differ in their thoughts of helping others. Either way he probably wouldn't have done that without meeting Migi, since it seems as though he's a lot stronger now (not just physically) too. People can tell when they look into his eyes!!! XD Man, here I was hoping for a safe return for his parents too, but I guess that development was a ruse to get us to care for them :( Seems as though his dad died from the attack, and well, that denial was really painful to watch. Though I guess it shows how once a parasite infects one host, it may get "used" to one gender and will get rejected by a body of the opposite. No wonder switching bodies is dangerous! The music that played when the door unlocked and she was walking was really good. Aw man poor Shinichi though, looks like Migi's gonna have to clean this up then let him deal with the consequences ...

Omg Shinishi is definitely the most irritating main character ever. He's so irrational and acts so stupidly.
Light in Death Note would ignore Ryuk not to get spotted but he keeps talking to his fcking hand in public. Now he's crying mom while seeing this weird ass face in front of him just die already, such a irritating character I can't. Maybe I should watch the sub instead it might ease his irritating voice shouting 24/7

Oh man this episode was so intense, but it was great

First off I wish Migi would have helped out Shinichi with fighting the thugs right off the bat, it pissed me off seeing Shinichi get his ass kicked, especially in front of Satomi.

And of course the parasyte taking over his mom was crazy, im so hyped to watch however they take this show now
