Summary:

Based on Iwaaki Hitoshi's science-fiction horror manga by the same name.

All of a sudden, they arrived: parasitic aliens that descended upon Earth and quickly infiltrated humanity by burrowing into the brains of vulnerable targets. These insatiable beings acquire full control of their host and are able to morph into a variety of forms in order to feed on unsuspecting prey.

Sixteen-year-old high school student Shinichi Izumi falls victim to one of these parasites, but it fails to take over his brain, ending up in his right hand instead. Unable to relocate, the parasite, now named Migi, has no choice but to rely on Shinichi in order to stay alive. Thus, the pair is forced into an uneasy coexistence and must defend themselves from hostile parasites that hope to eradicate this new threat to their species.

This anime is finished

Eep! I actually read the manga like three years back! I did a book report on it and everything. I was in love with the story for the longest time. I'm so happy it's finally being made into an anime! And with today's graphics?! Oh, I can't wait to see what Madhouse does with this. Madhouse did a nice job with Hunter x Hunter, so I hope this goes well too. And the fact that it gets 25 episodes is even better because the story is too beautiful to be limited to only twelve.
