----------------------------------------
Mm, decent buildup this episode. But holy shit, Shinchi's physical abilities reached an all time high. That scar on his chest though....

The presence of the military and other bits of the episode was pretty tense with the recent events in the show. I'm expecting a big battle soon. Usagami's role in this show has become quite interesting imo as well.

It was really interesting see this special force doing their jobs to track down parasyte like that.

The way it showed its abnormality through Shinichi's running and Hirama visiting the school with everyone there to see it.

The operation being able to see which one is human and to really spot a parasyte. Seeing how this special force would react in the public and how Hirokawa would handle his side. The two sides finally colliding headfirst, being excited would be an understatement!

So Uragami was caught by a crime he didn't commit XD But well he sure is one interesting character. Quite the criminal too. Just doing everything for fun.

Was quite surprised Shinichi's friends saw the scar on his chest. Good for him though, he's finally blending in with society again...well for now.

The last part was quite intense :O Military and sensors. Shit is gonna get real!! I really wonder how The Mayor is gonna get out of this one? Still wondering how strong he is though? The Koyama character seems quite confident. I have a feeling he's gonna get REKT by Gotou ^^;

At the beginning they made it seem like that serial killer had a parasite in his hand too lol.

I thought Gotou and the mayor were the only parasites in the building. Since there's a "few" it looks like this will be turning into a massacre :o

5 more episodes left though

They skipped the scene where Shinichi taps Murano, other than that nice episode. Most of you know what goes after this.

''So, do you see any parasytes?''
''Well, no, but I see a lot of CGI models...''

Don't tell me they plan to blow the buses to takedown the parasytes...? That would be fucked up, with all the innocent there is in those buses :/

I'm not sure if I understood what was going on with that serial killer. Is he able or not to detect parasytes with an ability similar to Kana? Or is it that ''hostility'' that Reiko was talking about?

The fact that the mayor look so human creeps me out.

Yes. They make some changes here and there, but they are following the story quite closely.

Perfect moment for a cliffhanger here. The creative team at Madhouse have done a good job at creating maximum tension with those endings.

That one murder Uragami didn't commit was the one that sent him to jail. Pretty ironic.
Did anyone else notice that he was also the murderer guy from the first episode? Quite the long tongue he got there! Wouldn't have been surprised if he was actually a parasyte himself.

I already don't like that Yamagishi guy, not because of his sternness, but he seems to belittle other's suggestions. Compared to him, Hirama is much better of an investigator who takes everything in consideration.

This is probably the best face Murano has made in the whole series so far. Even her attempt at being courageous was somewhat funny, but a little epic too! XD

Still love KanaHana's voice though, so can't quite hate her character. :3

Nice setup by the military and police at the end. Mayor Hirokawa is sure in a pinch.

Good episode. Wonder how they'd deal with that woman parasyte. Flamethrower? O.o

One big setup episode and that's fine. Next week should be interesting.

Murano says something quite interesting for once to the inspector.

other than that nice episode. Most of you know what goes after this. That Hirakawa dude goes on a bloodbath.

...well, bloodbath is right...

Good point. That would be been really smart, though I believe the that guy came up with the xray idea and that happened after he were suspicious of him.

Why would they? They know his head isn't a parasyte, and as far as they know a parasyte only replace the head, they aren't aware that a hybrid can exist.

Yea it takes a lot of effort, they are humans too.

Nice episode, I like when Murano hit Shinici on his head. And that criminal guy is terrible, his flashbacks made me sick.
