Ryouta has had various mothers in the past, but specific details have not yet been revealed.
Seeing a woman who is believed to be his mother missing and talking to the bag on the shelf in the room made me think that maybe she was killed and a part of her body remains. One description made me think deeply.
Although not explicitly stated, it is not surprising that if necessary to achieve the plan, Yoshitaka is willing to resort to murder, such as hitting Midori with a vase or setting fire to Nakamura’s house.
Yoshitaka may seem selfish in his efforts to achieve his plan.
However, since he has never been scolded, he may not understand the pain of others, and he may not know what is right and wrong.
What Happened from Volume 1 to Volume 3?
The protagonist, Yoshitaka, is a middle school student living with his foster parents, Naomi and Mamoru.
Yoshitaka, who grew up in a childcare institution without knowing a mother’s love.
For Ryouta, true maternal love is something he desires even if it means sacrificing others, and his actions to obtain it become the highlight of the story.
Naomi struggles to become Yoshitaka’s mother, but their relationship is different from a normal parent-child relationship as they are not blood-related.
Yoshitaka evaluated his mother’s failures, such as not removing the fish bones from breakfast, and recorded them daily.
Fearing that she could no longer like herself, Naomi begs to become a mother and runs away from home.
Yoshitaka considers himself Naomi’s son, but due to his flawed background, he begins to doubt whether he is the ideal mother.
At that time, he meets Lycian, Shun’s mother from his class.
Due to Lycian’s premature birth, she becomes overprotective of Kaoru.
Watching over this, Yoshitaka finally feels like he may have found the ideal mother.
To get to know Lycian, he becomes friends with Kaoru, increasing Lycian’s liking.
During his stay at Kaoru’s house, he witnesses Lycian, who is unconscious due to sleeping pills, naked in the bedroom.
Feeling nostalgic for the time when he was in her womb, he becomes convinced that she is the ideal mother.
To become Lycian’s son, Yoshitaka plans to eliminate any obstacles.
To distance himself from Naomi, he starts behaving in a way that makes others think he is being abused by Naomi.
Fearing abandonment, the crazed Naomi finally breaks into Lycian’s house and resorts to violence.
Who is Ryouta in Parasite Mama?
Yoshitaka is a model student at school and serves as the chairman of the school board.
His relationships with classmates are generally good, but he also has a hidden side.
Spoiler Alert for Parasite Mama: Thorough Analysis of What’s Inside Yoshitaka’s Bag and His Purpose!
Hello────
My name is Yoshitaka Miki──.

The contents of Yoshitaka’s bag in his room are shrouded in mystery.
In Chapter 46, something like a finger comes out of the bag, but it is unclear if it is really a human finger.
We will thoroughly analyze the contents of the bag and Yoshitaka’s purpose, which have remained a mystery so far.
What is in Ryouta’s Bag?
There is a scene where Ryouta thanks everyone for looking at the bag, but the contents are not revealed.
What is inside Ryouta’s bag?
Photographs
On the cover of Chapter 6 of “Parasite Mama,” there are pictures of Yoshitaka with an adult woman.
Each woman in the photos is a different person.
Although the two women in the photos are different individuals, they are shown in ordinary photos, reading a picture book together, and in Shichi-Go-San photos, suggesting that they may be Yoshitaka’s previous mothers.
Looking at these photos, it becomes clear that Yoshitaka had many mothers since childhood, and these women are likely his previous mothers.
The bag likely contained memories of these women and mothers, which he wanted to keep close to him.
Body Parts
The woman in the center of the photo on the cover of Chapter 6.
According to the news, the person believed to be the woman has been missing for over 3 years.
Based on the news, the woman who became Yoshitaka’s mother may have been killed.
Naomi also loses consciousness, and it is revealed that she is alive, but there is also the possibility that she is dead.
If Yoshitaka had killed his previous mother as an obstacle, there may be a part of the body left as a memory there.
If it was a part of the body, it is unclear which part was photographed, but it is unlikely to be a large part like a skull, as there are six mothers on the cover photo, indicating it may not be a large body part.
In Chapter 45, Simba accidentally found a human finger above the first knuckle of a forgotten bag that had been replaced to hide it from Chiba.
Since I have not confirmed it in the movie, it is not certain whether it is really a human finger, but there is a high possibility that it includes a part of the mother’s past body.
However, since he did not take a part of Naomi’s body (he probably does not recognize Naomi as his mother), even if it is a part of the body, it may not return every time a part of the body.
Data
When I stayed at Kaoru’s house, I removed the sleeping pills to not fall asleep, measured every corner of the body, and recorded it in my notebook.
They not only recorded the lengths of each part of the body but also recorded the taste of breast milk like a scientist conducting biological experiments.
Yoshitaka seeks the ideal mother.
Perhaps he puts the notes of his previous mothers in the bag, compares them, and confirms whether the current target woman is the ideal mother.
What is Yoshitaka’s Purpose?
Yoshitaka has found the ideal mother.
At the same time, he bitterly refers to the mother as being the most hated in the world.
They try to convince themselves that maternal love is a chemical reaction, and if love is a chemical reaction, then the absence of a reaction inevitably means being abandoned.
But what Yoshitaka wants is not a chemical reaction, but true maternal love that cannot be explained by science.
If Yoshitaka realizes that he has real maternal love within him, perhaps asking his biological mother why she abandoned him is the real purpose he has not realized.

We have thoroughly analyzed the spoilers for “Parasite Mama,” including Yoshitaka’s true identity, the contents of his bag, and his purpose. How was it?
At this point, we don’t know who Ryouta really is.
At this point, she seems to aspire to maternal love and make understanding love her goal, but since she is determined to get the ideal mother by any means, this is terrible.
I also want to know what is included in the recently developed package.
When writing spoilers for “Parasite Mama,” I wondered if Yoshitaka could have stopped his obsessive longing for a mother’s love sooner.
I think there were adults who warned him like Mrs. Nakamura’s mother or waited for him to come home like Mrs. Naomi, but thinking about the adults who couldn’t stop the violence, I feel sorry for the people who were manipulated by them.
Thank you for reading to the end.
