Hikarigaoka Park in Nerima, Tokyo is the real-world model for the park scenes in Parasyte where Shinichi grapples with his changing humanity. The vast green space surrounded by apartment complexes captures the uneasy coexistence of normal suburban life and hidden alien threat.
📺 Scene from the Anime
The park and surrounding residential district serve as the model for Shinichi's neighborhood. The ordinary suburban setting makes the parasitic horror all the more unsettling in the anime.
