Story: 7/10
The story revolves Lucy who is a Diclonius which are like humans except with horns and some arms known as vectors which the regular human can't see. Lucy at the start of the anime escapes a facility which keeps her as prisoner. However, she was shot in the head before landing on the ocean. This causes her to develop her much softer and cuter alter ego "Nyuu". As Nyuu, she lives with a college student Kouta and his cousin Nyuu. I actually really enjoyed the plot of the show and it was pretty intresting.
Music: 9/10
The music of Elfen Lied I must say is the highlight of the anime. The ost majorly consist of classical music. My personal favorite is the ed, "be your girl"
Animation: 5/10
While I like the story and the music, the animation wasn't the best to look at. The animation did not age so well, even for its time of release 2004, it looks extremely mediocre especially the cgi(exp the vectors).
Final words:
Despite its flaws, I like elfen lied. It was really intresting and had beautiful music. With the major downside being the animation. Now give elfen lied a chance. Maybe you'll enjoy more than I do :3
