3* The fight between Shinichi and the Parasite who took over his mother's body. Made even more awesome in the anime, thanks to the music playing during the scene, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HUwGFVeN04 HYPNOTYK]].
4* Everytime you hear HYPNOTIK or COMPLEX in the anime, you know that awesomeness will ensue.
5* The return of Migi during the final confrontation with Gotou. The sudden punch of the song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O3nRuYD4Zx4 COMPLEX]] as what remained of Migi in Shinichi's stump catches Gotou's blade was absolutely incredible.
6* In episode two, Shinichi is out on a date with Murano, but their nice time is interrupted when they arrive in the park and find a trio of jerky tweens throwing rocks at a kitten buried up to its neck in the sandbox. Murano tries to leave, not wanting to watch, but Shinichi immediately steps forward and releases the cat before giving the jerks a speech calling them out for their cruelty. He then tries to leave and the kids hurl their rocks (all at once) at his back. However, HYPNOTIK plays as Shinichi rapidly catches all three rocks in one quick move thanks to Migi enhancing his reflexes, and hisses a line so epic that they practically shit themselves, frozen in fear.
7-->'''Shinichi:''' I will eat you alive...
8* The new, stronger Shinichi completely owning Kana's jealous boyfriend Mitsuo when the latter picks a fight with him again, in both the manga and anime.
9* Shinichi saving Murano during Hideo's rampage, followed by him taking out Hideo by throwing a rock through his heart hundreds of meters away in the greatest fastball the world's ever seen. It's even better in the manga when one of the cops who finds the body looks at the damage to the heart and wonders out-loud if a sniper with a {{BFG}} killed him.
10* Shinichi avenging Kana by ripping out the parasyte's heart with one punch. ''With his human hand.'' Migi's aid in the fight was purely following Shinichi's request:
11-->'''Shinichi:''' Migi. ''[[UnstoppableRage Handle the defense.]]''
12* Despite being outnumbered three to one by physically stronger parasyte opponents, Tamura managed to win by strategically taking them down one by one; she also only had half of her brain to work with during the fight. Cue HandbagOfHurt.
13* While Shinichi goes into a panic when Gotou escapes city hall and appears just meters away from him, Detective Hirama takes aim and empties his pistol at the spot where Gotou's heart would have been.
14* Murano musters enough courage to give Uragami a ShutUpHannibal lecture about who the real monster is. Considering how she's been through two parasyte-induced school massacres, a serial killer holding her hostage must feel like a walk in the park.
15** This is followed by Shinichi (without Migi's help) [[CurbstompBattle knocking Uragami out in a single blow]] while taking a knife to the opposite arm and not even flinching.
16* When Tamura Reiko ran through a city of terrified onlookers, cackling maniacally, while ''missing the upper half of her head''. Even more awesome is what the upper half of her head is doing at this time -- namely, beating the shit out of two other parasites hunting her down. This is pretty much the [[BizarreAlienBiology Bizarre Alien Equivalent]] of kicking ass [[WithMyHandsTied with your arms chopped off]].
