I really wonder how some of the plot elements will coincide with the modern tech.

Well considering they've merged a bit more closely after getting stabbed, it isn't out of the line if their minds change a little as well.

One of the main themes of the story is the concept of tabula rasa.

So it's basically The Thing.

I still can't help but wonder if Parasytes can come up with a countermeasure. They can send command signals before they detach something, so if they command their hair to stay still before they pull it out, they might be able to get away with it.

Well plucking out someone's hair doesn't really mean much if you lose a limb in the process.

They should just make people stick their head under cold water. If they stoically complain it is cold, open fire. :cthulhu:

Parasites are really bad at dealing with systemic injury since they're more of an amorphous blob of cells than a single individual

Parasytes still have human bodies and can't necessarily dodge bullets.

Looks like Shinichi is slowly losing his sanity. Though he believes in the same ideals as before, his entire personality and temperment have changed, and he's embraced that fact by acknowledging his own inhumanity. Now he's slowly digging himself deeper and deeper into a hole he can't climb out of, the the realization of that is driving his sanity farther over the edge.

I like that he seems to potentially be building up his own posse, starting with chinface and maybe the PI.

Not really. He's just tired and starting to care less about everything.

What a crazy episode. So many things happened!! Yet the thing I'm most happy about is dad getting the hell outta dodge. It would be so depressing if Shinichi lost his dad too. :(

This anime is actually pretty happy, all things considered.

Perhaps the cops know and they're withholding that knowledge because they think Shinichi's trustworthy?
The only parasytes people have seen are the ones with freaky heads, and since Shinichi passed the hair test, he's a grade-A 100% human in their eyes.

Yeah that bit where the duo were having a moral crisis over killing Gotou was a bit :psyduck:
