Goddamn that Kakuzawa..curse him to death!!

By the way, thanks for the extra information because I never knew that Lucy mother still cared for her. I thought Lucy mother like everyone else despise of Lucy because of her abnormality and abandoned her in the orphanage.

So basically diclonius need people in order to reproduce?

Yes because Lucy is the only diclonius which can reproduce naturally. The rest are just "worker bees" and are in charge of spreading the virus. The other diclonius which are born through Lucy's virus have their reproductive organ disabled. The virus only infects the male and will combine with the DNA of the baby to change it into a diclonius.

Are you saying that the scene where Kouta save Lucy was because of Nyuu?? How can that be possible?? Didn't Kouta save her because of love for Lucy? He did say he cherish the playmate during their childhood and he did wish to see her again although he had tried to forget about that frightful memory.

Wow I didn't know Elfen Lied was that famous. Actually, I do, but not to that extent. I'm wondering why this anime doesn't have a forum dedicated to it. It has over 100+ pages!

Reno · 2008-01-23, 19:26

I knoww it would have helped me greatly.

But then, if it did exist, I would never have came here.

Yeah sort of... what I'm saying is, that scene wouldn't exist if Lucy was never Nyu, because Lucy would have been able to talk to Kouta in, like, the second episode or something. Which would be a shame because that last scene is just soo meaningful.

A very good point. The last scene is indeed breath taking and at the same time heart shattering. Hmm...but if Nyu didn't appear, the anime might be able to twist from the manga and we might be able to see more of Lucy and Kouta together plus maybe we can learn more from Lucy why she wanted to apologize to Kouta so much to the extend she is willing to undergo all those suffering. I am also quite curious though why did Lucy change back to Nyu when Mayu hug her and ask her to stop although she didn't resemble Kouta in anyway.

He said he hated Lucy but loved Nyuu, I don't quite understand that part but I think he is trying to ask Lucy to become back to Nyuu so that they can live happily in Maple Inn. Correct me if I'm wrong

Hey dude...Kouta never did hate Lucy but in fact he loved her. This is shown quite clearly when Kouta ask the whereabout of Lucy at the festival as she did not arrive. He also spank her sister for calling Lucy bad things(although it was the truth

) because he loved Lucy very dearly. So don't get it wrong. Kouta love both Lucy and Nyu although it is quite hard for me to say this as I am not so fond of Nyu.

That's because Kouta don't know that Lucy is a psycho killer after the misunderstanding between him and Yuka. He don't love her, well maybe he does.....It is just because she was special that draws Kouta attention towards her. But in the end, he did confess that he love Lucy for who she was during her childhood and wish that she can regain the good-natured self. I think Nyu is quite adorable although she has an IQ of a kid...

But in the manga, she grew quite intelligent.

But you can't deny that Kouta liked Lucy a lot although he did his best to forget his childhood memories but yet in the end he still can't hide it as the impact Lucy made for Kouta was too big, either for the better or worse. Furthermore, Kouta admitted he love Lucy. This is shown quite clearly when Kouta halt Lucy who was trying to go away and ask her to forget her sad memories.

H mm...you got a point there but who Kouta love was Nyuu as stated in the manga and I think the manga is more reliable than the anime, hehe although I didn't watch it till finish cause not enough updates....

But the anime is much more better than the manga as the ending of the anime was quite heart shattering and it shows love can happen in the most unpredicted way. That's why I support the anime more than the manga although it is undeniable that the manga is good but I still prefer the anime.

Everything has its advantages and disadvantages. You probably don't know this but the anime was released before the manga was drawn finish, so we can't compare them cause that will lead to a misconception. I also prefer the anime more cause it don't have too much nudity and violence although the effect was nice and the ending is so damn GOOD!!!!! H mm, heard a second season might come up this October, hehe. Gonna keep my finger crossed....>< By the way, who do you think is prettier, Lucy, Nana, Mariko, Mayu, or Yuka?

I'll go with Nana. Also to be able to live trough all she's been and remain a sweet kid at heart, she must be a very tough cookie.
