Elfen Lied Chapter 107 Discussion

i think i cried for 5 chapters straight lol.

this was an unexpectedly emotional story (i knew it was gonna be sad but not this sad!)



Lucy and Nyuu reincarnated was quite sweet and gave me a piece of mind

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.

Well... I'm pretty happy with the ending I suppose. As cheesy as it is, I don't really mind them bringing back virtually every character with an ounce of goodness... and the reincarnation, while awkward, made me happy because the twins apparently have Lucy's memories if they're waiting at the shrine too, which means that Lucy and Nyuu are now somehow able to live happily.



Whew, what a ride...

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.

Well, I liked the story on the manga more than the anime version (considering it was longer and complete) but I still liked more the anime ending (the reincarnation was nice and all but I didn't quite feel it).



9/10 for me, I love Elfen Lied it's such a good story but sad as well.

Good manga 7/10 as for the cheesy happy ending I think the mangaka wanted to give everyone a win his readers and his characters even if it was abrupt. The manga was depressing 90% of the time and gutwrenching that when I read the cheesy asspull ending I didn't care I welcomed it.

...



I feel kinda weird reading this...after all that's happened everything's back to normal? And Lucy and Nyu reincarnating is too much.

And Bando and such coming back to life? Or maybe Mayu and Nana are just imagining things.



Anyway, the point is I finally finished my favorite manga and I can't take all of this immediately.

o.O

read chapter 107 again, so those twins are like nyu and lucy?...

Pretty much, yes.

Judging by his facial expression at the end, the fact that the 2 are twins and the fact that one has short hair (Lucy) while the other is long (Nyuu, correct me if I'm wrong I got bad eye sight)
