| i would love to see a remake of elfin lied, i never read the manga but from what your saying they didnt adapt the whole story i would like to see the whole thing. even though i love the old artstyle for it, it would also be cool to see it modernized |

| I think it's good to keep some things immortalized as old classics, especially if they're already popular/famous. It would pain me to see a samurai champloo or cowboy Bebop remake. Same goes for others I haven't seen like Ghost in the Shell or Trigun. Leave them as is in my opinion, but it's just an opinion. |

Elfen lied wasnt a fully adapted show Didn't even realize! That's a solid reason to want a remake, I respect it. |

Elfen lied wasnt a fully adapted show I kind of agree with this, like even though I would love to get more closure in an adaptation, I also want to keep elfen lied as a classic, somewhat old anime |

| Best not. The way the industry sucks these days, they were going to make Elfen Lied with the most generic design possible. |
soccer6131 said: I never understood why they never adapted the full story of elfen lied considering the high popularity it had at the time. I mean it was one of the biggest anime in the early 2000s. We see remakes of shows alot and it got me thinking maybe this one should get one to i think i would like to see the manga be fully adapted in the anime. I think also modernizing the art style would also allow for the gore in the anime to be pushed even more. girltokyo said: i would love to see a remake of elfin lied, i never read the manga but from what your saying they didnt adapt the whole story i would like to see the whole thing. even though i love the old artstyle for it, it would also be cool to see it modernized Well for one the director and Co fundamentally changed story beats and elements in order to afford the show a sense of closure, the anime would need fairly major rectoning for a sequel to work. In relation to a remake you face two main issues, 1. For say western backers like Netflix, Elfien Lied's popularity has greatly declined over the years as people realised that as they grew older they're emotional connection to it weakened and the story's objective insanity and blanent use of serious real world forms of rape, abuse and incest for simply fetish bait, became more apparent, leading to a fairly split fan base at best in the west. Eastwards the anime was never that popular, like it did fine an all but it had little staying power. The YouTuber 'Hazel' did a really in-depth analysis of all this if your interested. In conclusion a sequel makes no sense as the anime does sort of end and why remake it when A. It's production qualities are it's strengths as is and B. The market simply isn't there in enough force. Hope that helps😎👍. |

| Elfen Lied tops my list of anime deserving of the brotherhood treatment. The original anime doesn’t hold up in many ways, bad voice acting and animation and an anime original ending. It definitely deserves a remake acting as the definitive version. It is becoming more and more common for old series to be resurrected so keep those finger crossed! |

| I agree...this was on of my first ever anime i saw (and the first mature one). Even to this day i still belive the show has potential. Ahane they didn't finish the story |
