Hypothesis on Parasyte

People might wonder, what in the world is Parasyte? Parasyte is an anime and manga that talks about these creatures who take on the hosts of humans and begin to eat other people while in the bodies of humans. But only one has suffice and now the Parasyte is in his right arm, the boy's name is Shinichi Izumi and his unlikely buddy and crime fighting partner that Shinichi names 'Migi'. Together they face off against the other Parasytes in the world. But there is something that keeps making this anime talking. Here are some theories that helps make the anime more interesting. 

Parasyte Anime Adaption is A Dark Version of Spider Man: After being bitten by a genetically-altered spider, Peter Parker gains superhuman strength and the spider-like ability to cling to any surface. He vows to use his abilities to fight crime as the masked superhero by the name of Spider Man. Shinichi's nerdy appearance is somewhat similar to Spider Man but unlike Peter, Shinichi lives with his parents but they are good people like Uncle Ben and Aunt May. You'd think that the father (who is like Uncle Ben) would die but it's the sweet mother who dies and the Parasyte takes her body as a new host. After Shinichi's revival from his death; he tries to put on his glasses, his vision was blurry and was better without them. The father lives but he drowns his sorrows over the death of his wife but he comes around after it....Sort of. Murano is similar to Mary Jane as Kana is similar to Gwen Stacey but the differences with this is that Shinichi is interested in Murano and not Kana however as a friend, he cares about her. Even when she died, he was sad but he couldn't cry because his new appearance as a Parasyte. Unlike MJ who found out Peter was Spider Man; Murano never found out Shinichi's secret as Parasyte but it is unknown if Murano knew because of Izumi's change. The last episode where Migi comes back to save Murano, she pretty much knows right? And also the enemies that Shinichi and Migi faced are similar to how Spider Man faces opponents and took them down. But he doesn't murdered. 

Tokyo Ghoul and Parasyte Similarities: Like it or not; Tokyo Ghoul and Parasyte are similar to one another! How are they similar? Well, let's see.....Both animes have protagonists that start off as innocently good protagonists that somehow got involved with a macabre ability to take down enemies of their own kind. Both had suffered hard but came out on top by some sort of 'adrenaline makeover' that made them into a hardcore badass! Shinichi loses the glasses, Kaneki's hair turned white and both of them became stoic while losing their human emotions almost. Although similar to one another, they both are different. The manga to Tokyo Ghoul started in September 8, 2011 while the Parasyte manga started in 1988 and ended in 1995. The Parasyte vs Tokyo Ghoul can be quite a heated debate at times. Both have relatively the same dark-toned setting, and their anime adaptations were released around the same time as each other.

The Concept of Shinichi's Transformation is a Metaphor for a Coming of Age Story: Shinichi starts off as a human in an ordinary life until a Parasyte came along. This is where Shincihi starts off scared and nervous of becoming a killer, similar to how a little boy is to change. When Shinichi's metamorphosis change after the death of his mother, he changes his hairstyle and is better without his glasses. This could be the stage metaphor for Shinichi becoming from a boy to a teenager. However by the end of the series, Shinichi's 80's bad boy hairstyle is no more but there's no glasses. This could signified that Shinichi is now a man! A grown man, even if he hasn't graduated yet from high school; the stages of his case as a Parasyte could be a form of growing up. And learning. Also, the reason for Shinichi to reach manhood is where he and Murano had sex, which was when Shinichi lost Migi and he was suicidal but Murano's sexuality with him caused him to snap out of it. This could result on maturity. Strange isn't it? 

Parasytes are Sociopaths or They Have Asperger Syndrome: In the story; Parasytes generally are indistinguishable from normal humans. However, they tend to have completely blank expressions due to not having emotions, and the artwork often gives them slightly overlarge and sharply-defined eyes that give them a sinister appearance. They are aware of emotions and things in life, but cannot react like normal human beings though they do try to cover up their identities. Quite how someone with an antisocial disorder can mask their persona and play it off as manipulative. But also the Parasytes could be the impediment of those with Aspergers Syndrome. are seen as those that cannot feel or people think they can't but it's proven in one part where Ryoko Tamiya/Tamura protects her newborn baby from bullets from the police and gives the child to Shinichi to keep it safe as she dies in a heroic sacrifice. This shows how human she has become and how much she's changed since she originally used her baby as an experiment for her species.

Murano Knew About Migi: It's unclear if Murano knows about Shinichi was a Parasyte in his hand; but she always kept asking, "Are you really Shinichi Izumi?" But noticed in one of the episodes, Murano and Shinichi were holding hands but Murano switched hands and took Shinichi's left hand instead. Did she know about Migi? Or feared of that groping incident? Who knows, it was a strange scene. Whatever, it couldn't be true, right? Sounds silly but who knows whatever the case might be. Maybe she didn't want to believe Shinichi was a monster and wanted a better reason for Shinichi's change. And how the last episode, she confessed that she knew who Shinichi Izumi really was and loved him for it.
