Satomi Murano

Satomi Murano is a supporting protagonist in the anime/manga series Parasyte. She is Shinichi Izumi's best friend and also his love interest. For most of the series, she has no idea about Shinichi's fights with Parasites or that there is one residing inside him, though she finds out the truth near the end.

She is voiced by Kana Hanazawa in the Japanese version of the anime and Luci Christian in the English version.

About
Shinichi and Satomi develop a romantic relationship over the course of the series, but their attraction to and fondness for one another is hampered by Shinichi's fear of his own monstrous nature, and Satomi's fear of Shinichi's secretive behavior and the mood swings that result from the trials and tribulations in his life. Up until the end, she has no idea about Migi, until a near death experience may have driven him to use his abilities without Shinichi's realization.

Appearance
In the anime, Satomi has short, maroon hair with her hair tied up in the front. She has brown eyes. In the manga, she has short, dark hair with a fringe in the front. She is considerably attractive (this is known because other people have feelings for her which causes Shinichi to get into fights.)

Personality
Satomi is depicted to be a very average young girl with a overall cheerful attitude. She is shown to have interest in Shinichi at the beginning of the show. Satomi has a rather obvious crush on Shinichi, to which her friends teases her with. She even describes Shinichi's change as "cool" and even notes this change to Shinichi himself. She is also shown to greatly care about her friends and Shinichi as well, as shown when Satomi often goes to Shinichi's house to check on him when he's missed school or when he's seen lost in thought.
