out of the many anime series that i have watch ( which be quite a few ) and elfen lie be unarguably the best that i have ever watch . i have never see anything quite as move a series have . although it contain excessive nudity and violence and elfen lie have some of the most impacting scene that be exceptionally rare nowadays . this anime can be categorize a a sci fi and drama and and mystery . if anyone be a fan of any of these genre and this be the show to watch . very few picture can move someone like this do and and i haven not experienced one so far . be warn and however and because this movie contain scene that some may consider strong pathos and but other than that there absolutely no reason to watch this movie .
