Poor A-san, he was obviously just used by the teacher to see what would happen between him and Shinichi/Migi.

Not sure how they can discern that the baby is a normal human being. Perhaps, when two Kiseijuu adepts mate, they cancel out each other's peculiar attributes? O.o


Only the head is the alien, the rest of the body, including reproductive organs, is still human.

ahh cliffhanger cant wait for the next episode. The ost really suits the show. The teacher is pregnant. She seems like she will be a big problem later on.

Obviously a build up episode, pretty calm compared to episode 1 and 2. Of course, this cant have action non-stop and badass scenes every episode. Interesting nevertheless, the new character certainly is a threat. Next episode looks to be sick though.

So they did actually decide to pick up the pace now. Or rather, they skipped the lion scene. To be honest, I don't mind, though. It was kinda stupid.

I loved the OST in this episode, especially the final one. I didn't expect them to get to the Mr. A confrontation already. Definitely looking forward to the next episode.

At this pace, shit starts to get serious around episode 5 or 6 already. Can't wait.

Is the teacher a potential ally? Shinichi snapped at Murano, seems like hes losing sight of himself.

Can't wait for the fight next episode!


losing sight? this guy is about to die here. id tell her to fuck off if i was in that situation. 1) i dont want her to die but 2) more importantly, right now i dont need distractions.

this mc needs to smarten the fuck up. because of migi, his life is continuously under threat. time to take some combat classes, or steal a gun. shit, if migi is so logical and smart, get him to find a way to make some money and hire guards.

Really loved that cliffhanger and the idea of fighting as two. I also have find Migi and Shinichi's relationship amusing, sometimes I forget he's a parasite until he brought up meatshields as a plan. I love it whenever he says something aggravating and he gets doused in water, "Shinichi..shinichi.. it's cold!" never gets old. xD

Can't wait to see this fight.

The teacher parasite is a super interesting tension to add in. I hope she becomes an ally.

Aww, looks like the scene with the lion's not going to happen. Oh well.

They're moving through the plot fairly quick, though. Three episodes, and the first volume's nearly completely adapted. Pretty good. At this rate, if I don't bring myself to read the manga, I'll end up watching the rest of this blind. Either way sounds good to me, though.

As much as I love the ED, I can't shake the Backstreet Boys/generic boy band vibe from it. That wouldn't be a problem, but it doesn't fit the tone of this show.

Anyways, another great episode. Interesting, atmospheric and more importantly, not boring. With so many dialogs, it's a nice treat they managed to do that. The showdown with the A-dude just gotta be awesome. I'm currently using all my will-power to prevent myself from reading the manga.

Can you really consider the baby a normal human being as a whole? I don't think so.

But then that A-san...

Tamiya being one of them but wants to blend into human society!
She being Shinichi's teacher too. It was interesting to see one that isn't as hostile as the others.

A-san attacking the school and straight out killing/hurting the others!
Migi's idea of using the "wall of meat" :/, definitely the most effective way.
It got pretty interesting as Migi and A-san's battle power is around the same! Shinichi being the tide that will destroy the balance.
Quite the cliffy with A-san jumping up with his weapons ready!

Shinichi being unable to control himself sometimes and snapped in front of Murano :/

Well this episode answered my question about reproduction....I'm kinda disappointed that the child would be human but oh well

This makes the teacher (Total MILF 10/10 would bang) a whole lot more interesting since she wants to keep it and will probably take care of it like a true mother would

I'm looking forward to the showdown next week...I hope that it's awesome

Damn, I cannot wait for that fight next week.

I also would like to see what Tamiya is going to do if her partner dies. Will she be a potential ally, or see Shinichi as a threat to her. Apparently she is pregnant. I wonder how that will affect her, and what will become of the baby.

Migi reminds me yet again that he is truly a cold blooded monster, but he still manages to make me like him.

Poor Murano, Shinichi was understandably rough with her there, and I feel bad for her. I still wonder about how much she knows.

Tamiya finally makes her appearance. I like the voice they gave her. I also thought that they did an excellent job with the school scene so far.

The only thing I found a bit confusing was the blushing girl in Shinichi's classroom? Is she in the manga? I cannot remember her at all.

Cafe, weird place for a sex lesson.

Another great episode. I'm liking Tamiya so far. So it seems like not all of them wish to eat humans. Kind of getting a Tokyo Ghoul vibe from this. Wasn't expecting Tamiya to be having a human baby. Maybe because she is the host of one. That cliffhanger was great. Not going to lie I didn't think he would come through the window. I thought that would make to much sense in an anime. Anyway by the preview I think we might see Tamiya powers so I can't wait.

Manga readers, if the parasyte only lives in the head (brain), is it ever explained why they need to do cannibalism ? I don't see why it's such a useful foodsource when they could eat the same food the species they're taking over is eating (if indeed, the rest of the body is human, as in the reproductive organs AND the digestive system).

Also, seems to me a baby born from a person who only eats human meat wouldn't be very healthy or ''normal''.

This all seemed trivial to me in the first two episodes but now that they've introduced the possibility of reproduction, why not explain the need for cannibalism :/ ?

It's just 3 episodes in. Just wait until they explain it or read the manga. They explain it eventually.

Also, is it just me or is the girl with the pony tail and freckles never in the manga and was just added to the anime to crush on the MC?
