Banana Fish and Elfen Lied are dark, sad anime about horrendously abused children trying to escape from the patterns and lifestyles they were brought up in. Unfortunately, as the characters fall in love and try to better themselves they also find themselves falling deeper into darkness. These stories can be very disturbing at times but remain poignant. They both come to a close with somewhat controversial endings, but I think each show does a really interesting—albeit very different—job of exploring if someone can truly be doomed from birth.
