The Parasyte threat is finally over ... almost. One Parasyte remains: Goto, who holds 5 Parasytes in one body and can morph all of his limbs to deadly effect. He single-handedly killed an entire military battalion during the City Hall raid. Shin has escaped from Goto twice now, but only with Lefty's help. Now Lefty is gone, and Shin will have to confront Goto one last time. The final volume in this manga horror classic!

Shin
A 16-year-old student, Shin is the only thing standing between humanity and alien domination. A Parasyte attacked Shin, but before it could fully assimilate with him, he was able to trap it in his left arm. Although Shin feels obligated to tell people about what has happened to him and about the alien invasion underway, he fears for the danger it would place him and his loved ones in.

Lefty
The Parasyte that attacked Shin is appropriately named Lefty. It has developed a personality of its own and is very inquisitive, but like other Parasytes has no emotion.

Parasyte - published in Japan as Kiseiju ("Parasitic Beasts") - was created and drawn by Hitoshi Iwaaki. It was originally serialized in the Japanese manga magazine Afternoon. The popular ten volume manga series later won the Kodansha Best Sci-Fi Award in 1993.
