The diclonius, otherwise known as a two-horned human, are mutants of the human species, may well be the next step in human evolution. The diclonius have horns and strong telekinetic powers represented by "arms". However with this great power, they can easily destroy the human race. Fearful of their power, humans quarantined the diclonius into secret research facilities to study. However, in a freak accident, a enraged female diclonius escaped, killing many guards in the process. Interesting enough, the female escapee appears to have suffered amnesia after her escape and floated to Yuigahama of Kamakura city. There, she meets two people named Kouta and Yuka, who name the female diclonius "Nyuu", and decide that they all should live together.



Info is from Anidb, because I'm too lazy to come up with I summary. This anime is awesome though, honestly I can't think of any problems with it aside from the shortness, and the fact the plotline is wonderfully fucked up(in a good way).

This show needs more episodes...I'll have to get a fantranslated copy of the manga eventually....

Note: This anime has shitloads of nudity, and isnt for the little kiddies.

Yes, most definitely more episodes. I've seen all of them, very well-made anime. The backgrounds are beautifully made, as are the effects and such. Very gorey, lots of nudity, but definitely worth it if you need a bloody, nudey anime.

Meh. I’ve had a re evaluation of Elfen Lied. For starters, I hated the characters with a passion. Their happy go lucky attitude about everything ruined the mood of the series. Kouta always seemed too . . happy. For someone who witnessed his sister’s and father’s death to be prancing around all happy seems weird. I don’t care if he thinks she died due to an illness, he should still be darker and less “Oh my, lets go pick flowers from the field!”. He also didn’t seem to be bothered by being hit on by Yuka while he supposedly liked Nyuu, hell, he didn’t even seem bothered about anything ever (unless it was a severed head or his seashell). Overall I hated him. Badly. Very shallow in my opinion. Yuka could use some more jealousy. Other then that, the other characters were fine. Also, this anime was short. Very, very short. 13 episodes to be exact. Because of this, it seemed the events on this show were smashed together. And two of these were all flashbacks. Way too short, and I forgot what I was writing about >.>

I agree. It also needed more desu and possibly more Warhammer.

German, actually.
