Parasyte (manga)


I decided to make the title sequence based on the japanese graphic novel, Parasyte. After looking at many novels and graphic novels, it was hard to find one that I had read that hasn't been adapted to film/television. I think, considering the manga is only 10 volumes long, it would work best as a mini-series title sequence, which are generally no different to a conventional TV series title sequences.

In terms of target audience, I'd say it would have to appeal to teenagers and young adults, seeing as it is set in a typical high school and primarily stars teenagers. Is is actually a darkly comic story, that takes a rather deep and satirical look at human nature. This could be adapted for western audiences, as a zanier and more demented show with a rather stylistic visual portrayal of the characters.
