AN-31: Parasyte: The Maxim

The LAST ANIME REVIEW of the first ever season of the ANIME NOISE PODCAST. This week we breakdown the music from a super gory, very philosophical sci-fi thriller called Parasyte: The Maxim. This ""Netflix original"" is based off the award winning 80's manga Parasyte by Hitoshi Iwaaki. Rumors claim that the main character, Migi, could have been inspired by a real life medical condition called "Alien Hand Syndrome" where the sufferer has a hand that acts on its own without the person's control. Crazy, right?

Anyway, although we weren't huge fans of how OST 1 was used in context with the anime, OST 2 kicked ass and we had piles of notes about this score and the spectacularly challenging art of film scoring for anime.

It has been such a pleasure reviewing anime with you all for an ENTIRE YEAR! And although this is the last review, FEAR NOT my fellow weebs! We're going out with a bang and starting a brand new tradition... the ANIME NOISE BIRTHDAY PARTY!!!

So strap on the cans, enjoy the sci-fi sounds of Parasyte, and tune in next week for the season finale of Anime Noise.
