The name of this series popped up a lot some time back, so I added it to my list of things to watch. To be honest I'm pretty disappointed, once you take away the ass and blood this series is below average in my opinion. The only character which ever stood out was Lucy, and then again even her other personality [Nyu] was very boring and predictable. I was expecting some kind of twist at the end, but no it was very predictable and lacking even then, there were no defining moments or characters in Elfen Lied which ultimately had me falling asleep, which nearly happens until I see some fan service or some guy's body being ripped in half. So, what did everyone else think of the series and is it just me who thinks it's average at best?
