I'd like to remember that Kiyo's opinion is not a fact. And the fact that Kei overcame her trauma, chose to protect Kiyo (something a parasite would never do for its host), chose to break away from her relationship with Hirata (she could have kept both of them, what would support her parasite mindset if she still had one), the fact that she was prepared to break away from her relationship with Kiyo if he lied in his confession... everything goes against Kiyo's thesis.

I myself have no doubts Kei still possess a big dependency problem related to Kiyotaka, but I don't think people should call it 'parasitic'. And by the way, I don't see logic in trying to solve this problem through a love relationship. It's pretty much clear by the last volumes Kei's dependence on Kiyo is only growing due to this relationship, and honestly, this outcome was obvious. A romantic relationship presupposes dependency, which is not necessarily bad, but it's a bad thing if it is excessive or comes from an unhealthy relationship like Kiyo and Kei relationship always was.
