I found Elfen Lied while looking through various manga titles on the Internet. The title seemed interesting enough and I read the first chapter. It got me hooked. I found and watched the anime, watching an episode every week until it was finished. I'll never forget the feeling of melancholy I had when I finished the final episode.
For me, Elfen Lied was a lot of first for me as an otaku.
1. The first anime I ever watched and finished.
2. The first anime crush I had (on Lucy)
3. The first manga I finished.
4. The first anime I rewatched.
Elfen Lied will always have a special place in my heart and Lucy will always be my favorite character
