Review of Parasyte: The Maxim
So I've seen alot of controversy over this show, and although both side (hate it\ love it) have good points, I hope this is middle ground for people. I enjoyed the show overall. If you've come to watch something deep and meaningful, don't push it. Because in the grand scheme of things what show really is? It does express the thoughts on what makes something a human, which isn't going to be life shattering (although I do look at my dogs in a different perspective now) but it does put a few thoughts in your head. That's all. I enjoyed the story for what it was, (insertanime description here). It's a great thriller, has good comedy, excellent romance (the good kind of romance, one that doesn't invade the story), the gore (yeeeeah!!), and it was hard for me not to stop watching. (On that note, the beginning is a bit slow, but we all know shows can start out that way)
It has a feeling to it as Death Note. Why? Let me explain
Like learning about the Death Note, you get to immurse yourself in figuring out how and why these "Parasytes" work and behave like they do which ultimately gives the story more consistency, something I am fond to.
The music, probably one of the best parts (for me)
The animation was finominal, nuf said about that..
The characters were actually quite decent, no one was too whinny, and no one was too extreme. And the character development was good shizz.
And prepare for cliff hangers or really messed up things, for I was about to start tossing crap out of my window because of the last episode.
Thanks for reading, got any comments or anything to add, I'd love to hear your opinion.
