PERFECT from start to finish. Need Season 2 but it's okay if there's none.
As a huge fan of the original manga, I came with NO expectations...
BUT I really like that Korean Spinoff. While remaining faithful to the Parasyte concept, they provided a well-rounded story in 6 episodes with a budding understanding and friendship between host and parasyte as was the case with Shinichi and Migi in the manga.
While I don't know if we'll ever get a second season... which they honestly could, given how the universe is just MADE to be expanded, I'm not too sad if we don't get any.
It's an open ending that gives proper closure on all our mains. You've got to salute the performance. They managed to write a complete story, with well-rounded characters you learn to care about and have a complete character journey. The parasites are depicted as creatures just trying to survive, who don't have ill-intent and somewhat don't understand the hostility they're getting from humans as a whole. It's interesting to see how their interactions with humans made some of them change and learn empathy by the end of the series.
It's action packed, with great CGIs, amazing performance from all actors, with a tight script. Just perfection from start to finish.
