When i watched elfen lied i wanted to watch a deep horror series with strong characters good story great music and blood.
Well after i watched the series there was a lot of blood but not really much else the animation is alright in this age the story is lacking.
The characters are boring and i was really left with this more hollow feeling inside.

If the series had been done right it could have topped Another as my all time favorite horror anime series but it fell short of that.

PS i don't care what anyone says i think Mei Misaki is better than Lucy.

This was the first anime i ever watched and was the reason i have started to watch more anime.
Another is based of a novel written by Yukito Ayatsuji and was made into an anime in 2012 by PA works.
The story is great and has a very good twist at the end which i did not expect to happen. Plus the way they could round it of in only 12 episodes is also very well done.

The art style for this series is amazing every detail is captured and it really does convey the dark and creepy atmosphere of the setting.

The sound is another strong point with ... the tracks being very dark and creepy. The only one i didn't like was the ending but the opening was really good.

Since it is only 12 episodes not many characters are fleshed out but the main focus on Kouichi Sakakibara and Mei Misaki make them a very good main characters and some of the supporting characters are nice as well.

Overall this series is amazing and is my favorite horror series.
