Elfen Lied (エルフェンリート)

Os iusti meditabitur sapientiam

The mouth of the just shall meditate wisdom

Et lingua eius loquetur indicium

And his tongue shall speak judgment

Beatus vir qui suffert tentationem

Blessed is the man that endureth temptation

Quoniam cum probatus fuerit accipient coronam vitae

For when he hath been proved, he shall receive a crown of life

Kyrie, ignis divine, eleison

Lord, fire divine, have mercy

O quam sancta, quam serena

Oh how holy, how serene

Quam benigma, quam amoena

How benign, how pleasant

O castitatis lilium

Oh lily of purity

Stop it!

It must be tough working as Chief Kurama's secretary, Miss Kisaragi.

What? Why do you say that?

The look in his eyes isn't normal somehow.

It's scary, isn't it?

What? He's a kind person.

But I can't be of much help making mistakes all the time.

But I, Kisaragi, am trying my best!

A state of emergency has been declared.

The underground research block will be sealed in 60 seconds.

All staff please evacuate immediately.

I repeat. A state of emergency has been declared.

The underground research block will be sealed in 60 seconds.

All staff please evacuate...

Don't panic!

The manual said that we'll be safe if we stay more than two meters away.

Oh, didn't it also say "don't drop things on the floor"?

Kisaragi!

Chief Kurama! I'm sorry! I did it again...

Run, Kisaragi!

What's this?

Run away, now!

Lucy, don't!

Shoot her!

Shoot! Don't hesitate!

We're out of bullets!

You bitch!

Stay put!

She's heading to the emergency exit!

Bring the partition down and lock her up!

The outer partition's been opened?

That can't be right!

I don't need your excuses! Just send me a sniper!

Finish her with just one bullet.

With her, you're not going to get a second shot.

This is a 50-caliber antitank rifle.

Even her vectors won't be able to repel this bullet.

Target the back of her head.

Roger.

Damn it! It didn't finish her off!

A Chance Encounter

You're Kohta, right?

Uhm...

I'm Yuka, your cousin.

Oh, Yuka?!

Geez.

Since I didn't see you at the station, I looked all over for you.

Sorry.

But I'm surprised you figured out that I was here.

You liked watching the ocean from here, right?

I remembered it.

The scenery looks just like it did when I was a kid.

I'd never have thought that we'd be going to the same college.

Since we've come this far, let's go see the ocean!

Hey, what're you doing?!

Come on! We used to play there a lot!

We used to play here a lot, didn't we?

The three of us, including Kanae, came here on the last day too.

Kanae...

She...

was collecting seashells here.

Big brother!

I got a bunch of seashells! Look! Look!

I don't think they look that pretty.

Kohta...

What is it?

Look the other way.

What's going on?

How am I supposed to know?

Nyu...

Uhm...

Hey...

Kohta, take off your clothes for now!

Huh?

Never mind, just take them off!

It seems she doesn't understand what we're saying, huh?

Hey, look at this. She's injured pretty badly.

That headdress looks like horns, huh?

No way! They're sticking right out from her head!

Liar...

Kohta...

Kohta...

I'm talking to you, Kohta!

What is it?

I've been saying that we should take her to your place for now.

My place?

The place where you'll be living from now on.

Because we can't leave her like this.

It's all right. Don't worry.

Okay?

Nyu?

The house that your family's going to rent out to me. Is this it?

It was a Japanese-style restaurant, although they aren't in business any more.

Mom says that as long as you clean the house every day, she doesn't need any rent.

So, uhm...

What is it?

How many rooms are there in this house?

If I remember correctly, I think there're ten rooms.

Am I supposed to clean all of them all by myself?

And the garden too.

In other words, she put me in charge of a vacant house?

Well, they say that if no one lives in a building, it falls into disrepair quickly, so...

Nyu?

I'm coming in.

Wow. This already looks like an antique.

It doesn't work even when it's wound up, so it must be broken.

Oh, darn.

Kohta, use this room for the time being.

Okay.

Nyu.

What is it?

Nyu.

Hey.

Well...

I don't know what to do. I don't even know her name.

Since she keeps saying "Nyu, nyu," why don't we just call her Nyu?

What?!

Nyu.

Look. She likes it too.

You think so?

What's the matter?

You shouldn't go to the bathroom in a place like this.

Nyu.
