Parasyte Paperback Collection 2

Experience the immortal horror manga as it was originally meant to be read! For the first time in more than a decade, the Parasyte Paperback Collection pairs Hitoshi Iwaaki’s original, black-and-white art with a revised translation and updated interior and cover design.

Shinichi has survived, not just high school (so far), but being invaded by an intelligent and deadly parasite. Instead of taking over his entire body, the creature stopped at Shinichi’s right arm. Thus, he’s nicknamed it Migi (“Righty”), and now they are dependent on each other. Shinichi has family, and he has Satomi, a best friend who looks at him with longing… But in a world where humans can’t possibly understand, and successful parasites fully control their hosts and hunger for human flesh, what place is there for a being that is half and both at the same time?

Complete in eight volumes, Parasyte Paperback Collection features the translation, lettering, and size of the recent, acclaimed hardcover Parasyte Full Color Collection. This timeless manga inspired the global smash hit anime Parasyte -the maxim- and the live-action TV drama from the director of Train to Busan, Parasyte: The Grey.
