The sci-fi horror manga classic returns, with an updated translation and lettering, in a fully-colorized, premium-quality hardcover for the first time! If you've never read the story of Shinichi and the polite and murderous creature infesting his right arm—or even if you already own the series—there's never been a better way to collect it.

Presented in eight volumes containing about 300 pages of manga each.

Shinichi has been hunted, and now he is to become the hunter. The humans and parasites are gearing up for a terrible, bloody showdown, and Shinichi has been recruited to help in the fight. There's no choice but to cooperate and do his best to keep the secret of his parasitic arm close to his chest. But as the fighting escalates, a powerful enemy resurfaces...and Shinichi may soon be the one in the crosshairs.

For more than 30 years, new generations of readers have been riveted to this unlikely buddy story that unfolds amid a world of monstrosities that never stay hidden for long. Since its first release, in 1988, Parasyte has inspired live-action films, spinoffs, and, in 2015, a global hit anime series. The Full Color Collection presents Hitoshi Iwaaki's original manga in hardcover for the first time, with each page carefully colorized and a revised translation for 2022. There's never been a better time to stay up late and get your hand on Parasyte!
