ParasyteParasyte, known in Japan as Kiseijū (寄生獣, literally "Parasitic Beasts") is a manga series written by Hitosi Iwaaki. Kiseijū was published in Japan by Kodansha in the manga anthology Afternoon, and it was published in North America in English by Mixx as Parasyte; Mixx is now known as TOKYOPOP. The ten-volume series Kiseijū won the Kodansha best Sci-Fi Award in 1993. Parasyte centers around a teenage boy named Shin'ichi Izumi (泉新一 Izumi Shin'ichi), or Shin in the English version. He lives with his mother and father in a rather quiet neighborhood when, one night, an alien invasion occurs. The aliens are called Parasytes. They are worm-like creatures that enter human "host" throught their ears or noses, and take over their brain. Once inside, they feast upon other humans by splitting their faces into multiple parts, eating the human, and then returning their faces to normal. Their faces sometimes also double as weapons.
