At a restaurant, Ryōko introduces Shinichi to her partner Mr. A. Ryōko reveals that she is pregnant, therefore Parasites are capable of reproducing humans. Mr. A leaves the restaurant, considering Shinichi to be a threat. The next day during math class, Mr. A intrudes the campus, forcing the students to evacuate the school.

When Shinichi realizes what he has done after Satomi leaves, he decides to give the puppy a proper burial instead. At school, he encounters Hideo Shimada, a Parasite sent by Ryōko, disguised as a transfer student. However, Shinichi does not let his guard down, disbelieving Hideo to be a peaceful person.

Before jumping out the window to safety, Yuko throws a bottle of paint thinner at Hideo, causing him to lose his mind and enter into a killing spree. Although an evacuation is initiated, seventeen victims among students, teachers and even policemen are gradually being massacred by Hideo. This prompts Shinichi to rescue Satomi and take her far away from campus. After Migi senses that Hideo is on the rooftop of the school, Shinichi travels to the rooftop of a nearby building and throws a rock across the sky, passing through Hideo's chest to kill him. In the aftermath, a board meeting takes place, where a scientist named Dr. Yui tells Takizawa about the method of plucking hair from anywhere on the body to distinguish the physiology between a human and a Parasite.

Later, Migi reveals to Shinichi that Kana emits a rather weak signal to other Parasites, meaning that they can also seek her out. Shinichi convinces Migi to reveal his true form when planning to meet with Kana at a train station. However, Kana uses her instincts and assumes that Shinichi will be at the abandoned building again. Instead, she finds a Parasite hosting a man, who then attacks her. The man stabs through Kana's chest just as Shinichi reaches her. Shinichi rips out the man's heart in blind rage, and Kana then dies in Shinichi's arms.

When Shiro questions why Shinichi has not made any sacrifices for humanity, Migi threatens Shiro, saying that Shinichi already suffered enough thus far. Shiro is shocked when Migi reveals that Reiko is actually a Parasite. The next day, Shinichi meets with Reiko at the roof of a university, where they discuss about the coexistence between humans and Parasites. When Reiko taunts Shinichi about Nobuko's death, the unbearable pain in his chest causes him to run away from the area.

Shiro records video footage of Shinichi and Migi eventually defeating Kawada in an intense battle. However, Shiro decides to get rid of all the video footage after seeing a Parasite in action firsthand, commenting that Shinichi is no longer a human being. Because of this, Shinichi vows to kill these Parasites one by one. Meanwhile, Hirokawa sees Shinichi as a threat due to the parking garage incident, later enlisting Gotou to dispose of Shinichi.

Satomi, worrying about Shinichi, tries to follow Reiko, but loses track of her. When Reiko arrives at the park, Shiro threatens to harm her son, since he sees her as a coldblooded monster.

After he watches Reiko die as a mother rather than as a Parasite, Shinichi finally mourns for her death, proving that he is still human inside.

Shinichi makes record time on the running track during physical education class. When he later talks with Satomi, he is approached by Hirama, who recruits him to participate in the operation. Thanks to a previous conversation with Migi, Shinichi advises Yamagishi to use a flamethrower as the primary weapon of combat.

As the evacuation continues, the civilians panic when a Parasite hosting a girl damages the high-tech equipment from the outside. Yamagishi and his squad start sacrificing human lives inside the lobby to shoot down the Parasites, which gives Hirokawa and his cabal the opportunity to slip away. As Yamagishi's squad branch out to the other floors of the town hall to kill more Parasites, Shinichi sits idly by, worried about the operation.

Gotou eventually wipes out all the squad members inside the town hall. Yamagishi is beheaded by Gotou on the roof of the town hall. Gotou meets Shinichi outside and vows to kill him before leaving. The next day, Shinchi skips school but is driven into despair, imagining Gotou's face on everyone he encounters while on the streets.

Shinichi is taken in by an old woman named Mitsuyo, who lets him stay at her house for a few days. Nearby villagers inform Mitsuyo that another villager was killed, in which Shinichi realizes that Gotou was behind this.

Despite not seeing any chance to win, Shinichi still does not give up, soon managing to pierce Gotou with a metal pipe from a dump site. When Gotou attempts to strike Shinichi, a fragment of Migi emerges from Shinichi's right arm and counters the blow, reuniting with the rest of himself absorbed by Gotou. Infected with toxins from the metal pipe, the other Parasites in Gotou's body reject his brain, allowing Migi to destroy the body. However, as Gotou's body tries to regenerate, Shinichi is left with the decision between preserving or destroying Gotou's body. While initially deciding to let Gotou live, he is convinced by Migi to destroy Gotou's body for the sake of humanity.

One year later, the mincemeat murders have stopped occurring. In a dream, Shinichi is saddened when Migi bids him farewell, not long before bringing up memories of his deceased loved ones. While on a date with Satomi, Shinichi contemplates on how it is contradictory for humanity to love the earth without loving themselves. Later, Uragami appears and abducts Satomi, taking her to the roof of a building. When Shinichi catches up to them, Uragami explains how humanity is filled with monsters, commenting that Shinichi is halfway between the humans and the Parasites. However, Satomi expresses that she finally understands Shinichi as a person. As Uragami throws Satomi over the ledge, Shinichi knocks him out but fails to save her. Migi appears in Shinichi's mind and tells him that he should do the holding now. Shinichi finds his right hand holding Satomi's left hand. As he pulls her up to safety, he thanks Migi for still being there and coming back to help him.
