Elfen Lied is a manga and anime series by author OKAMOTO Rin (岡本倫). The manga is published in Japanese by Shueisha. The story contains some nudity, voilence, and blood.
Story
The story involves human mutants called "dicloniuses" who grow horns on their heads. The mutants exclusively kill humans with invisible "arms" that can stretch and easily slice through bodies, and their tendency for violence varies amongst characters. Scientists contain them in cells where they are subject to inhumane experiments to test their abilities or they await to be executed for being too dangerous. An infectious virus is also associated with the mutation. The main non-mutant character in the story Kouta ends up becoming more involved with these Dicloniuses, as they seek refuge from the scientists.
Artwork in the anime series
The opening sequence shows shots of characters in the anime. The settings these characters are in are based off of Gustav Klimt's works. The opening music is a German song Elfenlied by Eduard Mörike
