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's fragile peace has shattered. The humans who know of the parasites are starting to make their move, and the parasites themselves are beginning to cooperate and dispose of loose ends. With his human mind and parasite arm, Shinichi is a threat they can no longer ignore. His strange connection with the parasite Reiko Tamura continues to haunt him. Hunted by parasites, with human authorities edging ever closer to discovering him, Shinichi will have to keep his wits about him to survive.

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!
After starting his career as an assistant to Lady Snowblood creator Kazuo Kamimura, Hitoshi Iwaaki broke out with 1988's body horror-alien invasion story Parasyte, which would become a global hit and go on to be adapted into two live-action films and a popular anime series. Iwaaki's other works include Historie, Neo Devilman, and Reiri.
