| ~ Mr. A stating his purpose. |
Mr. A is a supporting antagonist of the sci-fi horror anime/manga series Parasyte: The Maxim.
He is a parasite who considers Shinichi Izumi a threat and has been described by his fellow parasites Reiko Tamura and Migi as fool or "not one of our smart ones".
He was voiced by Makoto Yasumura in Japanese, and David Wald in English.
What Makes Him a Hate Sink?[]
- Is both stated and shown to be sadistic, even by parasite standards. Unlike most parasites, he mainly murders due to viewing others as inferior species, rather than an actual need for consumption.
- Puts no thoughts into his plans and performs murders recklessly.
- Breaks into a local zoo and slaughters a lion due to seeing it as an inferior species.
- Is extremely rude to Shinichi when they meet up, despite Reiko telling him to be nice.
- Agreed to Reiko Tamura’s request to impregnate her and showed no interest in raising said child.
- Viewing Shinichi as a threat, he breaks into his high school and killed multiple students and staff, then tried to kill Shinichi himself but ultimately failed.
- While he was betrayed by Reiko at the end, this doesn’t make him remotely sympathetic since he decided to disobey her orders and commit mass murder.
