The Metamorphosis.Episode Description:
Shinichi Izumi wakes up with a bizarre feeling in his right hand on his way to school. During the night before, a Parasite attempted to infiltrate his body through his ear in order to snatch it and control his brain, but since Shinichi wore earphones while sleeping, it tried to crawl through his right arm instead. Shinichi witnesses his right hand moving on its own to stop a car from running over a little girl while on his way home. He tries to stab his hand with a knife, that is until the Parasite reveals its form on his hand and breaks his knife. Shinichi is forced to cooperate with the Parasite from now on, while keeping this a secret from his parents, Kazuyuki Izumi and Nobuko Izumi. Later, the Parasite directs Shinichi to another Parasite that has inhabited a dog. Shinichi is shown that the only way to kill a Parasite is to destroy the heart from its host.
