The anime is a bit weak IMO, but the intro rocks. And it fits well the macabre yet funny mood of the anime.

    When you say weak, what do you mean? Never seen it but might add it to my watch list.

      It’s my subjective impression, but the series feel a bit too repetitive and a bit too reliant on gag for a fantasy one. Give it a try though, it might feel different for you.

      EDIT: although note, it isn’t so bad as the Elfen Lied anime, where the only thing worth was the intro. (A shame, because the manga was decent.)

        I found it so hard to get through the Elfen Lied anime. It was the glacial pace for me more than anything else.

          The anime also take off a lot of the context from the manga, and this completely destroyed its message/“theme” about “what means ‘to be a monster’ and ‘to be a human’, when both behave the same?”. That made the violence and gore feel gratuitous.

            I still haven’t read the manga, If I am honest with myself I think its because the anime turned me off some much. I should probably add it to my read list.
