Expanding the universe of the original best-selling manga, “Parasyte,” by Hitoshi Iwaaki, the series tells a new story packed with action, philosophy and a dash of existential dread.

In the series, Su-in, a young woman caught between her humanity and parasitic influence, embodies this recurring theme of coexistence. As Heidi, the parasite that latched onto Su-in in the aftermath of a near-fatal accident, says, “We would both be dead if we weren’t together. You and I have no choice but to coexist.”
