This ideology is further bolstered in the mind of Shinichi as Migi delivers one of the most powerful and recognisable quotes in the series: “Shinichi, upon researching the concept of demons, I believe that, among all life, humans are the closest thing to it”. Human beings though possessive of emotional intelligence exist solely for their own self-gratification and survival. This viewpoint slowly begins to degrade however as through further interaction with Migi and his own traumatic trials and tribulations, Izumi begins to realise that humanity itself is no worse than the Parasites. This rather linear and bleak philosophy possessed by Migi is greatly contrasted by Shinichi who is righteously defendant of humanity. Granted I believe rights are a concept unique to the human species”. A prime example of this being Migi’s defence of his parasitic nature and what he must do to survive: “If you have the right to live, so do we. This makes for some incredibly engaging dialogue between the two. Though Migi has learnt the language of humanity and interacts with shinichi as if he were human, he cannot grasp these psychological concepts. Whilst Shinichi-much like any ordinary human being, possesses the universally recognised traits of compassion, understanding and love, Migi’s species is void of these constructs and his overall purpose is survival. Perhaps most Compellingly unique about Parasyte is its ability to present the rather compelling moral dichotomy between Migi himself and his human host. “Are Humans really demons in disguise?” ‘Migi’ In its base form. Along the course of this relationship, much is revealed about the nature of humanity and the overall concept of morality making Parasyte a psychological anime one cannot simply overlook. It is through this bond in which Shinichi enlists Migi on his personal conquest to save humanity from the impending threat of the parasites who are now at the top of the food chain.
As the unusual nature of their situation becomes apparent, both Migi and Shinichi realise that they must combine their intellect and work together to survive, warding off the predatory parasites. Because of this rather peculiar situation Izumis consciousness remains intact, seperate from his parasite ‘Migi’ (fittingly Japanese for right). As fate would have it Shinichi has one of these predatory creatures fail to burrow into his brain one night because he had earbuds in thereby forcing it to use his right hand as a host extremity instead. The creatures would burrow their way into the bodies of human like a literal parasite would taking over their consciousness, and using their body as a host in order to feed on the flesh of humans. An ordinary 17 year old teenager in quiet suburban Tokyo until of course, a mysterious alien species with an ambiguous origin known as ‘Parasites’ began to appear on earth.

Conclusion They form an uneasy bond between two, and Izumi will become humanity's final goal in the struggle against the aliens. They swiftly agree that the parasite offers to help Izumi fight other parasites worldwide in exchange for the parasite's continued presence in his body as a host. The parasite tries to control Izumi with its judgment, but the boy fights back. Heres my final poster for Parasyte: The Maxim, hopefully they do make a season 2 for the anime. While the rest of the planet becomes a victim of these alien classes, Izumi is the only one who can prevent himself from the attack as the parasite that tries to enter his brain becomes embedded in his arm and takes up residence in his body. These parasites can be harmful if they control opening one's Genius through the nostrils or ears.
