Kawada

Kawada is a Parasite killed by Shinichi in a parking garage.

Apperance
Kawada has the appearance of a man in his 20's with slicked-back black hair and hanging fringes. He was seen wearing a leather jacket.

Personality
Not much is known about his personality other than he seemed to dislike humans and had confidence in his combat capabilities.

Plot
Kawada is first seen entering one of the designated feeding grounds set up by Mayor Hirokawa along with his meal. Upon entering he is confronted by Shinichi and Migi. Kawada quickly kills his victim and begins to fight Shinichi, all while the investigator is filming. Though holding his own at first, his body is quickly dismembered into numerous pieces by the tag team.

He is later mentioned as the catalyst that pushed the Parasites to come to the conclusion that Shinichi Izumi is too dangerous to keep around and proceed to send Miki to kill him.

Abilities & Powers
Being a parasite, Kawada can shapeshift from the head up and and harden his cells for offensive or defensive purposes, as well as detect other parasite signals and automatically emit his own. He can also maximize the host body's physical potential and disregard pain.

Weaknesses
Like all parasites, Kawada requires a host body with functioning organs to survive, and would die if he were separated from the body or it was destroyed. Fire can cause his parasite cells to "freak out", making him lose control. He is also susceptible to poisons or caustic chemicals, which would either kill parasite cells on contact or make his host body fail.

Trivia
