Parasyte -the maxim- Ratings & Reviews
- K1t5un3March 31, 2025Never trust a reviewer that says Tokyo Ghoul is better than Parasyte, ever. Parasyte is the best version of the two, there's not even a contest, Tokyo Ghoul lost it's story half-way through. That said, these type of edgy anime start to date themselves after awhile, because there's always going to be another edgier anime coming out. However, some edgier anime still hold up to modern scrutiny and I believe this is one of them. I'm a sucker for monster hunting genre and Parasyte never disappointed me, it was good all the way through the end, which is a lot more than Tokyo Ghoul can say.
