Christmas break given me a lot of time to watch over many anime shows, one of which is the anime Parasyte -the maxim, it follows the story of a young school boy named Shinichi Izumi. Parasites, described as alien creatures, arrived in silence taking over humans by invading the brain of the individual. Shinichi was also affected, however the parasite failed to take his body over as his right hand was taken over by the parasite.
