Reviews: Elfen Lied and Divergence Eve
OK I actually had a request to review Elfen Lied so here it goes...Elfen Lied is actually one of those series like Chance Pop that I wasnt going to watch But Farel highly recomended it so I got curious and decided to rent it. I was glad I did. Lucy or Nyu depending on which personality is in control or awake as they say are both great. Lucy of coarse is absolutely brutal and Nyu is adorable. But I cant help like I have seen the Nyu character before (Chi from Chobits, Mone from Yumeria, Rin from Dears) all these characters remind me of her. But as for her other side Lucy now there is a brutal, vicious woman. She slices and dices better than any swordsman in the anime world. which leads me to this warning, this is absolutely not for kids. There is a ton of nudity and it seems like blood flows from every frame of animation. there is so much blood that at one point I thought it was coming outta my DVD player and some got on me. But ultimately this series is as schitzfrenic as Lucy. There will be times u laugh and other times where u go OMG did they just animate that? But this series is one of the best and if u dont mind some nudity and a lot of graphic violence by all means get this one. u will not be disapointed. I give it a 9 outta 10. It would have gotten a 10 but there is a part with a puppy that i really didnt like.

Now for Divergence Eve. Wow what can I say about this series except...WHO THE HELL CAME UP WITH THIS CRAP!!! Ok so I will admit hormones are prolly what drew me to this a lot of big breasted cuties in mechs. But the eye candy and the ending theme is the only things this series has goin for it. The story was horrible, Demons coming through a portal fight with the humans and one of the humans may be a demon but she doesn't know it. of coarse. The characters suck and die quick thankfully. when they die and u go YAY!, u know u r watching crap. Then theres the mechs they look like giant green twinkies with arm and legs. whoever designed these was just not trying to hard. I mean I can draw and oval with arm and legs. hey wait I can be a mech designer for divergence eve. hey guys how bout this a cylinder with arms and legs it will look like a HO HO sticking with the donut theme of there mechs. I wish I can be more detailed but just avoid this disaster, you will thank me later. I give it a 2 outta 10. The 2 represents the nice looking characters and the ending theme that was actually very good and upbeat.
