Review of Parasyte: The Maxim

Parasyte is any fan of action anime. The characters are all have good development, and are easy to invest in. The main villain in the series is one of the more interesting villains I have seen in anime in a long time. The action is gorgeously animated and very bloody. The music is great and elevates the mood in every scene. The story takes a lot of unexpected twists and turns as well. Despite this series being pretty dark over all, the story is very emotional and has a decent amount of variety. There is a pretty good romantic subplot and some humor is injectedwhen the show really needs it. I find it easy for shows that deal with themes about humanity and what it means to be human to become very overly serious and dreary. In Parasyte, I always felt that the darker tone was always justified, and the creators knew when to lighten the mood. Overall, Parasyte is a show with great action, an engaging story and characters, good music, and plenty of emotion. I recommend it to anyone who likes action dramas. Especially ones with lots of bloody action.
