Description: They arrive in silence and darkness. They descend from the skies. They have a hunger for human flesh. They are everywhere. They are parasites, alien creatures who must invade - and take control of - a human host to survive. And once they have infected their victims, they can assume any deadly form they choose: monsters with giant teeth, winged demons, creatures with blades for hands. But most have chosen to conceal their lethal purpose behind ordinary human faces. So no one knows their secret - except an ordinary high school student. Shin is battling for control of his own body against an alien parasite, but can he find a way to warn humanity of the horrors to come?

Well that was a shit ending. Overall I wouldn't take this book to seriously it's just something to read when you have nothing else to do...
The character really starts to resemble Guts from Berserk when he changes his hair.

Spoiler

why hasn't anyone uploaded the english chapters here?

Also all of the chapters aren't uploaded either

 

Please read the description, in this one's case it's glaringly obvious why the English language chapters aren't on this site.

There are non-English chapters, so please stop tagging this as [no chapters].

it's kind of hybrid between movie invasion of body snatchers and yeers in animorphs series

Exellent anime adaptation!!!

Really great manga worth a read if you're interested I finished it in about 2 days!

wasn't gotou almost the same as one of the guardians of the quimera ants?? (yupi was his name?)

Damn in the middle of reading, well time to go to mangafox *shudder*

aw shit lol i was literally in the middle of a reread because of the anime release...

 

and i mean literally in the middle, as in, i was reading a chapter and then it got removed as i clicked on the "next page"...

i feel you there... i was like "few chapters away before finishing this manga" then poof...

aaarrrgg, i should have go all nighters for this manga...

Damn, I wish I had that except in my dick. Then I could kill people with my dick. And I could make it as rubbery and flexible as I want.

 

I'd be fucking Dickman, savior of the human race.

 

From the pic of your avatar, it seems you're already kind of one, also known as "dickhead" 

Just reread the series again - I can only go through this every couple of years or so, because it's emotionally exhausting, but I can't stop reading till the end. I'm still doubtful whether the anime can convey just how amazing this series is, primarily because the art doesn't come close to capturing the dark, psychological horror of Iwaaki's black and white.

 

One question though, for anyone else going through this series like me, and preferably has read the raws - is Mayor Hirokawa explicitly stated by Migi to be a parasite during the election arc? It makes me wonder if Iwaaki made a mistake and retconned it later during the War arc.

Interesting, that it got an anime adaptaion only now

The anime looks good, let's read the manga

I wonder if someone willing to continue the translation ...

I has been fully translated for many years, just not on Batoto.

I wonder if someone willing to continue the translation ...

(considering the anime finally appear)

The hell you talking about? this was completely translated yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaars ago. You can even buy the original in English and own it.

 

...

err, can you imagine the pain if your parasite get cut ?

It wont hurt at all if your parasite doesn't transmits the sensation, since they can be their own thing, just read the manga.

...

wow, it's been a while anime adapting OLD manga ...

well, quite good and the censor is few ...

I remember reading this back in my teenage years. With the release of the anime I think its a good idea to read this again.

What is the manga depicted on the credit page in chapter 4 page 26?

This is so good, re-reading.

recall read this manga when i'm still at elementary school, and can't sleep for month, lol

What is a live action adaption if it does not contain puff sleeves? I'm seriously disappointed.

Don't let the cover and old art deceive you if you prefer "modern" art styles, this is a gem of a manga. Also,
