Well this fight is quite something. I like it with Shinchi getting outclassed a bit in the beginning and great coordination with the action in the forest.

Good way to show how much Shinichi's limits are when he's up against someone that powerful. Also thought some of the OST used matched the momentum.. Reiko is also really getting adjusted to adapting with society including giving more attention and care to her child. Good episode overall.

The fights were pretty awesome with the constant tide changing! From the hunted to the hunter, and from fighting from lack of mastery to full potential. That really is quite the enemy winning in any ways in terms of physical abilities!

Feel bad for the investigator to lose his family like that and being unable to go with reasoning anymore. Wanting to exact revenge with his own hands, hope he doesn't get himself killed. Interested in what he wrote!

The parasites having an internal conflict with an anti Reiko fraction and wanting to kill her! Perhaps some sort of potential alliance, though she getting killed off just like this would not be that interesting.

How Shinichi appears as himself in his dreams should be interesting though I won't be surprised if he is as much of a monster Migi looks like. With all these possible dangers to relatives and friends, things are really getting out of hand!

oh my dear god, this is getting too good.

Reiko is the only one of that parasite group I believe to be the closest to co-existing with humans, hope she wins the fight coming up next.

That detective has lost his shit, wonder what will happen to Reiko's mind if he does something to her baby.

The detective really should have relocated him and his family once he knew what he got involved in. Poor guy tripping on that death flag now. Wonder how Shinichi going to be able to stop that invincible parasyte.

Could the name of next episode mean that Detective dies.. And it will show the past of Detective's family ?

Now Parasytes starts to go versus each other :) Hoping Shinichi will kill them all..

That shit was insane :O Probably my fav ep yet! And they used most of my fav OSTs too :3

Shit man! Why even the daughter and wife :/ Poor PI guy. I wonder what he'll do to her baby nxt ep?

Dat Miki laugh XD But damn! I totally didn't expect Gotou to be in that same body O_O
So that's what Gotou meant by Miki needing more experience. Totally makes sense now. Gotou is just too friggin BA!! The way he can manipulate his body whatever way he wants was amazing. Esp the running dinosaur like feet and the clinging claws when he was jumping from tree to another :O

Migi did him in pretty damn nicely though! REKT with a car like that XD Nice driving skills Migi lol and stealing some cash along the way. So pro XD

I'm really liking how Reiko's character is being handled. I wonder what she'll do against 3 by herself?

The fights in Parasite are really interesting. Poor detective tho.

Also, the "Psssscht" sound Migi does sometimes when fighting is kinda cute.

Miki's awkwardly creepy laugh was hilarious! If nothing else, parasytes are great at making LOL faces! XD

Migi and Shinichi's teamwork was awesome as usual, though they had some difficulties once Gotou took over. This guy's movements are just as amazing as his piano prowess.
Still, Migi is always several steps ahead. Such professional driving and pick-pocketing skills. XD

Feel kinda bad for Kuramori; losing both his wife and daughter. Hopefully, he'll recover soon and..

Reiko's character is becoming more interesting as the episodes go by. There's even a chance that she'll turn good too! (Really hope it happens!)

Awesome episode. Less screentime for Murano these days but that's alright. At least no more of "Are you really Izumi-kun?" anymore.

I feel sorry for Kuramori, mainly his family. (T_T) But in the end, he meets Hirama.
But then he decides to use his own hands against Tamura Reiko. Dat boob tho.

Miki's a strong opponent. He has too many blades for Migi too handle.
Oh damn, five parasites in one body? Shinichi is screwed.
Gotou takes over and goes like 60kph. "Not even monkeys can move like that."

I wonder how Shinichi will handle Gotou. I wonder how Tamura Reiko handles all the animosity towards her.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

Pretty scared for Izumi"s dad. He's gonna be the next one the parasytes aim for if they can't get Izumi.

Pretty sure the detective is gonna die next. Then agn, I'm not sure how the reiko vs 3 fight will pan out.

I'm actually quite impressed at how the anime handles all the small details. It's one of the big selling points of this anime for me. Things like where Izumi would get the money to buy the clothes led to a nice little reminder talk of how Migi sees Izumi as his partner in survival. Or, like how it was the news of Kuramori's family's death that reminded Izumi abt how his father was vulnerable. Even the part where Izumi's bag was left behind was remembered and used.

Normally, I'd say that quite a few anime dont really bother so much when comes to minor details like those and tend to gloss over them.
The most annoying thing about some anime is that they don't know when they've died...

He did. Even in that case, he should have relocated knowing someone knew about his knowledge of parasites.

it is great, love how they are following the manga step by step...the intense parts are coming, dont know how are they going to wrap everything in 8 eps
"It's like Tolstoy said. Happiness is an allegory, unhappiness a story"

"And the sense of tragedy-according to Aristotle.comes, ironically enough, not from the protagonist's weak points but from his good qualities. Do you know what I'm getting at? People are drawn deeper into tragedy not by their defects but by their virtues"

Well, I guess he thought he'd manage to back out of it all in time.

The detail which puzzles me a tad bit is why the parasites that killed his family didn't just wait for Kuramori after killing the family. Or, an even more logical move would've been to wait for him to actually appear in front of them before killing ppl... A bit weird considering how logical they tend to be...

Good episode. The fight was interesting,
I hope Shinichi's dad is okay.
And it's interesting to see that the Reiko parasyte is changing; I think it's getting "more human".

The fuck was that scene after the car incident? With those two guys just looking at Gotoh in his state and asking whether he's *okay*?

This would have been one of the best episodes in the series so far but this scene just completely ruined it for me. Anyone else feel this way?
Endure. In enduring, grow strong.
