I just watched Parasyte recently, and a few specific nitpicks aside, I agree that it's great.
As someone still relatively new to anime watching, I still have a big backlog of older series to dip into that can keep me occupied, but there are newer series that I've really liked as well.
Initially, I did mostly watch the standard shounen and action fare, and I think that if I had stuck exclusively to that, I probably would've gotten bored and burned out on anime/manga. Having now branched out a bit more into other genres, I find my overall engagement with anime and manga to be a lot higher. Some of the stuff that has grabbed me the most lately like Oshi no Ko and Insomniacs After School (and with respect to manga, Blood on the Trail and Smoking Behind the Supermarket with You) are things that I never would've considered watching/reading a couple of years ago, but now, I find that they're the things that I'm most excited about.
