| The incest was one of the most annoying parts about the anime, so thankfully I find it much more bearable in the manga. Bando is one cool guy. Finished the entire manga in a day (started it just before going to bed past midnight). It's better than the anime, but surprising they decided to go an anime-original ending considering they followed 75% of the story relatively accurately. |
| And....that's a wrap. They met again although I have to say that their "reunion" isn't what I expected. Also, that child with Kouta is the daughter of Kouta + Yuka? Hmm... I'm going to miss Lucy/Kaede/Nyu though ;.; Oh and yeah, Bando is a pretty cool dude especially his manga counterpart to his anime adaptation. The guy deserves a spinoff. |
 |
| I don't think Lucy was reincarnated, I think that girl just happened to have the name Kaede. It's not that unpopular in Japan. |
| "Canaan. You're a victim whose past was taken away by war. And she's a defeated person who lost her past in a power struggle. Soldiers who are born within destruction take hatred as their weapon. Even though you and her became soldiers for the same reason, you both live differently. Listen Canaan, you cannot counter hatred with hatred... ever." -Siam, Canaan |
| Not a fan of this ending. Wasn't a fan of Kaede's Nyuu Personality, and definitely was not a fan of Yuka.. The idea that Kouta most likely ended up having a kid with Yuka and Named it Nyuu makes me sick lol. I guess the reason I'm not a fan of Yuka is because she ended up being the one that Kouta choose which was by default. Kouta did not love her the way she loved him. Yuka's memory of Kouta's loving actions were exaggerated, and when you look back at that time even Kouta's sister knew that Kouta did not have strong feelings for Yuka. Kouta 8 year's prior to the end had far stronger connection with Lucy. (I also have a partial anger towards Kouta's indecisiveness) What make me even sadder is that Lucy never truly got to express her love while she was ALIVE to kouta, except by jealous violent action and through the Nyuu personality. |
| - Anna and spy girl survived. So the evil dad really cared about his daughter, nice. - Nana x papa/Kurama FTW. - Bandou survived, hahaha. Probably the most surprising revelation, i wonder if he will respond to Mayu's feelings. - That dog Wanta was cool and calm as shit - I know that Yuka wasn't really popular since most people tend to ship Nyuu and Kouta. But Nyuu's already dead, so.. - Lucy and Nyuu reincarnated. That was fast. Fortunately it were twins, not triplets. The third personality had gone for good. - Took him 10 years to notice the message in the bottle lol. - All ends well. 8/10. I love happy ending, the death toll was pretty high, so this ending was good. |

| i have my issues with this story but i really enjoyed how it wrapped up |

Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| Ending was emotionally devastating :( http://i.imgur.com/iyODeTB.gif I dont care about the reincarnation, its still better that nothing, but i would like to let her live and stay with Kouta somehow... I dont care for the dead characters brought back to life, i just dont care. I dont care for the Cousin-cousin marriage either, but i really dont think that he could love Yuka the same way that he loved Kaede (Nyu/Lucy). Its just dont end up! Well of course that he loved her most, from the early start when they were kids, they were both in love. Yuka was just allways there loving him too, thats it, they were close but never that close in feelings. She was just pushing this love onto him. They deserved a second chance (Kaede&Kouta), I mean I dont blame the girl that much for being what she was after experiencing such things, but still, its not like it had to be this way. Damn. I dont know how there is a way for Kouta to live forever and ever happily with the one that he really loved after shes reborn into twins? Kouta is already bout 10 years older, has a family and a daughter now, right? And its not like the twins just pop up from the sky right? They propably have parents that care for them. They are just little girls, there is no way for any kind of love story between, i mean how exacly? Btw, its definately one of my favorite manga. |

| Such a beautiful story. I finished it in 3 days and I was amazed. The ending feels a bit forced in trying to make things happy. But still, it's a great manga |

 |
| Wow so amazing !! I really enjoyed reading this, overall, I would say it's better than the anime but I love both of them so it's nice to see the real conclusion. Kinda wish Nyuu lived and was w Kouta but at least her and Lucy were reincarnated so oh well. Kinda want to rewatch the anime now haha |

| Great manga but Bando's reincarnation was a little too much... |
| "The weak get washed away by the tides of fate...The strong drink it up."-Godot |
| It was alright giving everyone a happy ending, Bando just wouldn't die XD I might check out the anime to see the difference |
| Nice ending! So the two girls are the reincarnations of Lucy/Nyuu? Well, I have always hoped for LucyxKouta. This way it may not be satisfyingly, but it's ok. I had my issues regarding the plot, however, overall it was a good read. |
| I feel so cheated with this ending. I was already confused about how Bandou survived but the reincarnation thing at the end just lost me. A lot of things don't add up, but I liked the first half of the manga better than the last half, oh well. |
| Marathoned the Elfen Lied anime AND entire manga yesterday and, dear God, what a mistake! While I loved the series I've never read such a dark, depressing manga! My only real complaint with the chapter has more to do with me being incredulous that Bandou somehow survived being cut in half and having his innards spilling out onto the beach. That said, I'm happy to see him alive, just... it seemed so unlikely. I literally squealed when reincarnated Kaede and Nyu showed up. They deserve a chance at a happy life, though I find myself wondering if they have parents & if so are they still alive? Or did they reincarnate like Himari from Omamori Himari, and just got a 2nd chance? Are they intended to be reunited and re-start life with Kohta and the others? I especially found myself wondering this... let's say Kohta didn't have a female cousin that loved him and clung to him, and he was moving to that area rather than just visiting it. I wonder if Kaede's life could have been different with him around from the start. Could she have turned her life around, or was it already too late to stop her descent? Anyhow, awesome manga, and nice ending. |

| BANDO IS ALIVE BANDO AND MAYU ARE TOGETHER I CAN DIE HAPPY That aside, what the fuck was this end? the only thing that i liked was that Bando came back and now he is with Mayu, but what the fuck was all this stupid drama in the end? And what was this "I will come here every year" omfg dude she killed your fucking family what the fuck is wrong with you???? Like you said "I hate you" and tried to save her, you stupid bipolar bitch, this was the worst final that i read so far. |

| This is ended much better I than thought Scratch that. There were so many bad things about this manga, still there was some good things as well, so I couldn't bring myself to give EL rating lower than 5/10 |
| I am the Wrath of God. Who else is with me? |
| Liked Lucy x Kouta confrontation and overall ending better in anime. Also, manga somehow feels way too dragged with some ridiculous shit going on by the last chapters. Kind of disappointed tbh ~ |
ILikeToast said: I the only downside is that... kouta X yuka?? what? they're cousins!! i mean... wow! LOL. Cousins marriage is normal in Japan. I don't like Bandou being alive, Bandou x Mayu is kinda... well whatever . He don't have dick anymore so he can't fuck Mayu. Lol I always hated Kurama, he doesn't deserved to live happily imo. 7/10 |
| Bando alive ?? What ? Let it be.. And reincarnations ? Hmm okay... What gave me most happiness is Mayu and Wanta ! |
| Bando's epicness was reduced considerably with his reincarnation. 8/10 for the whole series as the foreshadowing was nicely done. |
 All credit goes to Sacred. |
| Ending way better than the anime, the last arcs were original material, and they were great for sure. |

| the fuck did just happen bando resurrected? the fuck? also lucy and nyuu the fuck? and also koutaxyuka eew! the ending was so anticlimatic 8/10 |
 |
| The only thing that caught me off guard was Bandou lol! Then again he's pretty much a cyborg now. Then again his death the way it was was perfect and should have stayed that way. I saw the Resurrection coming lol but it would have been better if it ended without the twins at the end. The message in the bottle was emotional enough. So if you take out Bandou & the twins resurrection thing then the ending would have been pretty solid. Overall 8/10. btw I was reading Gokukoku no Brynhildr before this so reading and finishing this manga had me see a lot of shit that he took from this and adapted it into his new story. I like new story better though this is more way adult. |

| Was surprised by the real happy ending, mainly about Bando and the twins. This was a rollercoaster with ups and downs but I enjoyed reading it... 7/10 |
    |
| I don't get why some guys are freaked out about things such as Bando surviving (he definitely got his soldiers cut off now, if you know what I mean xD) and Lucy and Nyuu resurrecting. I mean, the whole series was about horned humans with magical arms that could do pretty much anything, but those parts were too off the mark? Anything goes in your own manga series, could've drawn Goku at the end saving the world and it would still be feasible, because the manga is the writer's creation, after all. Anyway, I liked the happy ending, giving the whole series an 8/10, as some things weren't explained as much as I wanted. I also feel the ending could've developed a bit more, as we are unsure of the future of characters like Nozomi and Mayu. Also, what's up with people freaking out about the cousin relationship? It's completely normal in Japan, we are not reading Marvel/DC comics here. There are several other manga/anime/LNs etc. that portray or mention similar relationships. For example, Sword Art Online. We shouldn't judge if such a thing is part of Japan. It's quite ironic if you do when you're reading a manga or whatever. Back to the story...they left it ambiguous whether the spy and Anna will be safe or not...I mean, the fact they're shown alive probably means they'll survive later on, but Anna forgot how to leave the cave and the island collapsed. One more miracle we'll not witness! :| Pretty much a fail that 10 years passed and Kouta never looked at the stone closely enough. A child could look better in a day than he could in 10 years, come on bro... Fortunately, it was not anything that was time-essential. All in all, it was a great ride, too much strife but in the end we get a satisfying ending. While some may complain it may not be feasible according to their own theories, it's still better than having all the characters we care about just stay dead. If you want shit like that, go read any dystopian book ever written. Cheers. |

thehangman65 said: I just finished reading the manga and I'm really confused by the ending Who's the mother of the twins? Lucy? Are the twins Diclonius? (I noticed their hair had a ribbon tied the same way Nana does to hide her horns) If the twins are supposed to be reincarnations of Lucy & Nyuu, do they have the same memories of Lucy? What does it mean now that Lucy is a kid? Does she still feelings for Kouta? (I doubt Kouta can love a kid) Also what was Nana's stepfather's answer? Does he see her as a daughter or waifu material? Yeah it's mostly the twins part that confused me the most. Other than that everything kinda wraps up nicely except for Bondou and The Agent coming back to life (Felt unnecessary) but Anna still alive was surprising but alright. Also Kouta marrying Yuka a.k.a his cousin. WTF. But then again I read Oreimo The mother of the twins is unknown. I don't think it's anyone we know, and it's irrelevant if they don't tell us. They're simply "shell kids" for the resurrected Kaede (Lucy) and Nyuu. I don't think they are Diclonius, since there was birth control for some time until they solved the issue, and the twins seem to be the same age as Kouta's daughter. Safe to presume they both have their memories, with the way they addressed Kouta and how he went crazy emotional at the end. Lucy (Kaede) probably still likes Kouta but will keep a distance, since she knows he's taken now haha Nana's stepfather thing, I don't remember too well. I think he was taking her as his wife, maybe, but either way, since they ended up together, it might be a natural development, since the idea is out there. The Oreimo comment cracked me up, but won't comment on it since it's another series xD And yea, it's pretty common, as I mentioned in my post, cousin relationships are legal. Doesn't surprise me anymore, nor does it stop me from enjoying good storytelling! :p |
| |
| And who's reading it in 2016! I cannot take this off my mind. Im sad that Lucy died I cannot take that reincarnation as a happy ending We all know that Kouta loved Nyuu/Lucy very much. They should have lived in the mountains. Having babies That would be more fitting ending. |
| BAKAYARO! |
| Yeah... there was some dumb stuff, like Bandou being alive... but, the feels were huge. Sometimes, happy endings are underapreciated... (if you can really call happy a story where the protagonist has to be headshoted after suffering a horrible pain because her god damn flesh was being melted to the bones!!) I'm happy to finally read the end of one of the first anime I ever saw. |
| I'll fade away and classify myself as obsolete! Obsolete!! |
| Why did every character come back to life.. bandou, kurama etc, but the one who deserved happiness the most had to die....feelsbad Also yuka is really annoying, disliked her the entire time... I have to say the anime had a better ending, but both are terrible. |

| I enjoyed anime version more, or maybe it left bigger impact on me since back then I was just starting with manga & anime... well, it was a good read anyway. |
| It's great to see that everyone's happy and well despite the close call the whole world had with the whole murderous horned baby situation but it's a bit jarring to see nearly everyone who was presumed dead but didn't get their head ripped off suddenly reappear just in time to wrap things up. It felt like a movie just finished filming and the whole cast comes together to celebrate. Weird but not necessarily bad. It's bittersweet to see Kouta come back to their meeting place every year for a decade and finally finding that letter from her. Kouta and Yuka definitely had that kid and I can't help but think that those twins came from Nana and Kurama... Bandou and Mayu probably ending up together makes me feel real weird. |
 |
| One of the best manga I've ever read! |
 |
| -Das Ende- well, what a depressing manga, honestly, it is ok. I would be very critical on this but on the enjoyment side of things, I liked thinking about how humans act, how paranoid they are, the hate, the devilish behaviour. Elfen Lied is pretty good at showing this. enjoyed this quite a bit. |
| This was just a crappy experience from beginning to end. It succeeded in making me horny like it intended (Also kind of pissed that we don't get single sex scene in this after all the baiting) but everything else was just bad. From the writing to the characters. 4/10. |
