Hello community, today I come with a series that I saw some time ago and I loved it.
It is an anime that breaks with the traditional schemes of the horror and science fiction genre. It has an intriguing plot and well developed characters, this series manages to captivate the viewer from the first episode to the last.
The story centers on Shinichi Izumi, very curious in my opinion, a high school student whose life takes an unexpected turn when his right hand is invaded by an alien parasite. Unlike other hosts, Shinichi manages to prevent the parasite from completely taking over his body (otherwise, no anime) and the two begin to coexist in a strange symbiosis.
As the plot progresses, we enter a dark and dangerous world filled with other parasites that feed on humans. These parasites infiltrate society and camouflage themselves as normal people, creating an atmosphere of constant distrust.
Over time, his personality transforms and he becomes confident and courageous. His internal struggle to maintain his humanity while living with the parasite in his hand is one of his strongest points.
In addition, the supporting characters also play an important role in the development of the plot. Migi, Shinichi's hand parasite, is an intriguing and complex character who provides both comic and emotional moments. Other characters such as Satomi, Shinichi's friend, and Tamura, a parasite with superhuman abilities, also have a significant impact on the story.
The animation in "Parasite" is impressive, with fluid and detailed action scenes. The parasite designs are grotesque and frightening, adding an additional layer of tension and horror to the series. The soundtrack is also outstanding, with a mix of haunting and emotive melodies that perfectly complement the scenes.
Plot-wise, "Parasite" is not afraid to tackle deep, philosophical themes. Issues such as human nature, morality and survival in a hostile world are explored. As the series progresses, questions are raised about what it means to be human and how far we are willing to go to protect our loved ones.
The ending of "Parasite" is satisfying and brings the story to a coherent conclusion. However, some viewers may find certain parts predictable or question some narrative decisions. Still, the emotional and visual journey this series offers makes up for any minor flaws.
