エルフェンリート
Lucy is a Diclonius, a rare human mutant born with small horns and invisible telekinetic arms called vectors. Captured as a child, she is subjected to cruel experiments in a government research facility that seeks to understand and contain her kind. The years of confinement and torture leave her with a deep hatred for humanity.
When an opportunity to escape presents itself, Lucy unleashes a violent bloodbath. During her breakout, a severe head injury splits her personality, leaving her alternating between her murderous original self and Nyu, a harmless, childlike persona with almost no ability to speak.
In this unstable state, she is found by Kouta and his cousin Yuka, two college students who take her in without knowing her true nature. As they care for her, they are drawn into a shadowy world of government secrecy, conspiracy, and the escalating threat posed by other Diclonii.
