Parasyte: The Maxim

Suddenly, they appeared: parasitic extraterrestrials that descended upon Earth and swiftly penetrated humanity by burrowing into the minds of susceptible individuals. Their arrival is marked by a hush that precedes the invasion. These ravenous entities seize dominance over their hosts and can transform into multiple shapes to consume unsuspecting victims.

Shinichi Izumi, a sixteen‑year‑old student, becomes the target of an invader. The parasite does not seize his mind; it settles in his right hand. Stranded, the creature—now called Migi—must rely on Shinichi to survive. The pair is forced into partnership, parasites that seek to eliminate threat. Their alliance is tested as they navigate where trust is danger lurks in every shadow. Together they uncover conspiracy that could expose the parasites to humanity's wrath and peril.
