With this, an unlikely alliance ensues between the two, and Izumi becomes mankind’s last hope to win this war against the aliens.I believe you are right on the mark that the maxim is 'Life must be protected.'įrom what I remember, the theme is pretty consistent throughout the entire series, but the overarching idea tied to the maxim is that all life is valuable, regardless of species. They soon decide to strike a deal where the parasite agrees to help Izumi fight other parasites of the world if he lets him stay in his body as a host. With its own intellect, the parasite tries to control Izumi but the boy resists. While the rest of the world becomes a victim of these alien species, Izumi is somehow saved from the attack as the parasite that tries to enter his brain, gets buried in his arm, and retains its own physical space in his body. However, these parasites can be very harmful once they manage to enter one’s brain through the nose or ears.

In their physical state, these parasites are completely harmless and have a tiny worm-like appearance. But his normal life completely changes one day when parasitic aliens start taking over the world. He lives in a very safe neighborhood and avoids getting into any kind of trouble. ‘Parasyte -the maxim-‘ centers around a teenage boy named Izumi Shinichi who has a very simple and peaceful life. The English Dubbed and Subbed versions of ‘Parasyte -the maxim-‘ are available on Funimation, Netflix, and Amazon Prime. Till then you can check out the anime’s two-part movie adaptations. That being said, if Netflix renews it, we can expect ‘Parasyte’ Season 2 to release sometime in 2022. In the unlikely scenario of it being renewed, the second season of the anime will be adopting an original storyline since its manga’s publication ended way back in 1995. Since it is on Netflix now, if the anime does well commercially on the platform, it is possible that Netflix might renew it for another season. This makes it pretty obvious that because of a lack of source material, creating a second season may not be possible.

Moreover, even the conclusion of the first season of the anime is very similar to that of its original manga. Madhouse Studio (‘ Death Note‘, ‘ One Punch Man‘), which created the anime, never renewed it for another season. All 24 episodes of the anime were then released on Netflix on May 15, 2020. ‘Parasyte’ season 1 premiered on October 9, 2014, and with a total of 24 episodes, it finished airing on March 29, 2015.
