Parasyte: The Grey (2024– )
2/10
Huge disappointment

Warning: Spoilers
A huge fan of the original manga. This newly adaption lacks many core elements which makes the original story so special. Most importantly, the evolution of the creature that invades the main character. In manga, "Micky" is weak at the beginning and they need much time to adapt with each other. In the newly series it fight so well right away at the get go, as the script writer don't bother to any character development.

Storyline is so poorly scripted. At one point the main male broke into the so dangerous parasyte warehouse for no reason. The next he performs some heroic rescue to the main girl. And then suddenly he wants to quit, before his best friend got killed. And that killer parasyte suddenly becomes so intellectual and start being friend of human, just because she got betrayed. The acting of the grey team boss is so inconsistent too, when she first appears acting crazy but when the story goes on she becomes normal as hell.

No to mention the main setting of parasyte in the hand is 100 times better than parasyte in the head.

Overall I don't get why any fan of the original would accept this.
