Parasyte -the maxim- is a TV anime adaptation of Hitoshi Iwaaki's landmark manga, brought to life by the acclaimed studio MADHOUSE under the direction of Ken'ichi Shimizu, with series composition by Shoji Yonemura. The story follows ordinary high schooler Shinichi Izumi, whose right hand is taken over by an alien parasite named Migi. Forced into an uneasy coexistence, the two must fight to survive in a world where parasites secretly prey on humanity. Blending action, horror, psychological tension, and sci-fi, this series dares to ask what it truly means to be human—making it essential viewing for fans of thought-provoking, edge-of-your-seat anime.

Somewhere in the darkness, an invasion has already begun. Parasites—alien life forms with an insatiable hunger for human flesh—have been quietly descending upon Earth, seeking out human hosts to infiltrate and dominate. Once bonded with a host, these creatures can reshape themselves into terrifying forms: massive fanged beasts, winged horrors, or beings with bladed limbs. Yet most choose to wear a human face, blending seamlessly into everyday society. The world remains completely unaware of the threat lurking among them. Shinichi Izumi, an ordinary high school student, finds himself at the center of this hidden crisis when a parasite fails to reach his brain and instead takes root in his right hand. The parasite, whom Shinichi names Migi, develops its own distinct personality and consciousness. Now bound together in one body, a human boy and an alien creature must navigate a world far more dangerous than either of them ever imagined.
