Migi: Please hold still. I going to try to make your sex organ erect.
Shinichi Izumi: [still whispering] The hell you are?

Brutal but excellent

This show as brutal view on the real parasite who lives on our planet.

Although a alien parasite feeds on people, we get to see that the diferences are very small from the humans who kill and disrespect other creatures on Earth. The main character is well constructed and fits perfectly on the story. The battle scenes are intense and leave no trail to imagination because all things like body deformation or severe damaged are showed. The main story has the needed fast and slow pass so the viewer can enjoy some fights and then have some emotional moments.

Definitely one of the best animes I've ever seen. Ps: The "side-main character" also a genius character :D
