(L) Elfen Lied

[Fate lover]

When you say at the end of the manga Lucy is reborn.....Does that mean Lucy died...... Nono, I was hoping that Lucy and Kouta could be together forever...sob. I hope that the ending of season 2 won't be like the ending of the manga cause I've fallen for Lucy/Nyuu and can't bear the sight of watching them die.


Past Prime, if you've read this, can you please take a look at the question I asked at page 103....thanks dude.

[Fate lover]

Thanks a million Past prime...God bless you. By the way, can you teach me how to put a picture beneath my name just like you and will there be any Elfen Lied season two because I've heard a lot of rumors that Elfen Lied season 2 is now being produced at Japan as we speak. Thanks again for the info..

Wow, I was so hooked, I finished watching this in a day.

Lucy/Nyuu definitely touched me the most; her personality, and development towards the end. I found the last conversation between Kouta and Lucy very touching, especially the repeated embraces.

Definitely on my Top 10 list

At the end, Lucy was standing in front of the Army and they opened fire, and they showed one of her horns flying in the air, then they showed a silouette of a person knocking on the door. I was thinking that it was her and she purposely got rid of those horns so she could start her new life murder-free. All the confessions she made to Kohta at the end, it seemed as if she was truly sorry for all the pain she'd caused, and quite possibly she may turn over a new leaf!

There's some posts saying there may not be a 2nd Season of Elfen Lied, and the reasoning behind it is true unfortunately. Hopefully they'll think of something...

I personally think this series is better for viewer older than 21 years old, or maybe even older.

I agree with everything you said there, except I think that age rating is a bit over the top... well where I am the DVD rating is (surprisingly) only a 15. Yes I was shocked, I expected it to be an 18. But not 21!

Hmm....this means you haven't even seen the manga yet then...haha. Then, go to www.onemanga.com and watch it. It is very interesting and once you read it, you will get to understand the story better. Once again, thank you Past prime for everything, you are like my teacher

As I have already stated in this thread, its not likely a 2nd season will be made. I would like to know where this rumor sprung up from, as it seems too good to be true. My guess is that rather than a Season 2, its much more likely a remake will be made to fit the manga more appropriately, as there were simply too many deviations from the manga to be able to continue the anime in the state that it was left in without major restructuring and rewriting. It's much more likely that this supposed 'season 2', if the rumor holds true will be similar to the Hellsing remake, Hellsing Ultimate, which simply redid the story from step 1 and fixed the storyline to keep it closer to the manga. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that more Elfen Lied is on its way, as I loved the series and my lack of knowledge of the Japanese language is preventing me from being able to read the manga past what has been currently translated.

Dude...must the anime be exactly like the manga?? If you have observed carefully..the ending of the anime differ from those of the manga and that makes it more touching and more happy...isn't it now? Sometimes when the anime twist a little from the manga, we actually find it more happy and we liked the ending of the anime more than that of the manga..won't you concur with me? Besides, the making of season 2 have already been confirm. And about that Hellsing, the rumor did said it was going to be remake and it did. And I think that Elfen Lied probably won't be remake as the season 1 was a hit already. Remaking it in a sort of way meant suicide..isn't it cause the viewers now hunger for the second season and not the first season anymore...

[Fate lover]

I don't think the anime will completely follow the manga storyline. At the first season, after episode 8 then did the anime go off course. The reason is simple, who wants to see the manga in a moving form, everybody expect something new from the producer or else elfen lied season one wouldn't be a hit and will be just like the naruto anime where everything is derived from the manga(so boring.....). Elfen Lied reflects the truth about this world and it has something which we all wish to possess. Season 2 is just a rumor I found on the internet while surfing so it's better to not put too high an expectation but I truly truly hope for one though since the ending leave me in a climax

Really?? But I have heard of rumor saying that the second season will be coming out in the year 2008. By the way, Past Prime..you surely rocks. I can't doubt that your taste and observation for anime is topnotch. Somehow you are able view anime at a different angle. You surely rock.;

Second season of elfen lied? If they make it , it will probably be a remake.

[Reno]

Hmm....this means you haven't even seen the manga yet then...haha

Er... duh?

As if dude...but now I only receive information that it might be released in the year 2008 and there is a high possibility they won't remake it.

Actually, I would be happy with either a remake that stayed closer to the manga or an Anime Universe continuation.

If it was a remake then I would hope that they would go a little futher at the end so we could see how everyone was 10 years after and what their reactions would be.
And, if it was a continuation of the anime story then I would hope for an ending where Lucy got to remain at the Maple Inn and her personalities merged, so in the end, she would be a combination of Lucy and Nyu. No longer evil but able and willing to use her powers to protect her friends.

Yes, that is what I said. And you don't need to repeat it. And why?

Dude...you surely rocks..But I do hope they will follow your second prediction because I don't want to see what happen 10 years later cause the ending is very sad and I think I might not be able to accept it.

Your second opinion is much better as I also hoped Lucy personality will become back to one and she would be able to be with Kouta.

I 100% concur with your idea. Just hope that they will release season 2 soon.... Don't know why but I think I am addicted to Elfen Lied already....
