What’s in a name? If you’re a parasyte, not much. Tamiya Ryoko/Tamura Reiko/Tamara Rockford doesn’t care, she just sticks with “T.R.” initials. While Uda’s parasyte now has a name, it’s more for Uda’s benefit than the parasyte’s. The P.I. still wants to investigate Shinichi, even though he’s been told to stop — and you’ve gotta be attentive to catch his name in this manga. Tim and Patrick discuss “Parasyte” chapter 35!
