Consider this my PTW.

What? No, I really don't. Please share.

Decided I was sick and tired of France besieging my cities on the mainland, and went on the offensive. My king and a large army of mostly infantry and longbowmen set sail from England and went straight for Paris, which was only lightly defended. Of course, the Frenchies would have none of that, and their largest army (that I know of) attacked along with the Parisian garrison, on opposite sides. I faced well over a thousand soldiers in all.

I positioned my army in a wooded area, counting on my troops hiding among the trees to land the first blow on a surprised enemy. Since longbows have ridiculous range, they were able to open fire before any of the attacking army could react. And because I had so many longbows, vast swaths of the French were dead in minutes. Their own pitiful archers got in range and tried to shoot back, but my casualties were acceptably light and soon the archers were routing. I diverted my attention to the Parisian garrison, which was slowly marching towards my rear. The Parisians had brought their faction heir along with a large number of crossbowmen, but few infantry. I had my king and a unit of Mailed Knights charge the French faction heir by themselves, retreating when French spearmen managed to join the fray and looping around to attack the crossbowmen. The faction heir decided to ignore my king and charge my longbowmen instead, only to be surprised by hidden English spearmen and get himself killed.

By this point, the main French army had finally managed to come to grips with my own army. It was a bloody, confusing mess, but with French dying everywhere and their leaders dead or fleeing the field my victory was inevitable. Less than 100 French soldiers escaped, and because Paris was virtually undefended it was captured without further fighting.

Christmas music shouldn't be played until December >_>

It serves the same purpose though; just a more modern way to deliver exposition on all the brutal murders. The decision to give the MC glasses sorta puzzles me though, but not enough to make me declare the anime "ruined 4evar".

So it seems like the Parasyte anime is doing pretty good. Aside from the MC having glasses, it seems to be doing a decent job of sticking to the manga plot.

Don't worry about healing Harlan for now. He's in a forest and has Stillness, so the odds of getting taken down this upcoming EP are acceptably small.
^{_{not that the odds have been on my side so far...}}
