Because of this, Kurama states that he will need to be castrated. Kurama states that he has been given the latest in cybernetic prosthetics, however, as he has had contact with Lucy's vectors, his sperm are now contaminated with virus that will transform any children he might have into diclonius. Bandou is met by an expert named Kurama in government hospital. Lucy then proceeds to cut off one of Bandou's arms and gouges out his eyes with her vectors.īandou is rescued when a homeless girl named Mayu calls an ambulance to rescue him, and Bandou wakes up with cybernetic eyes and limbs. Lucy, however, manages to overpower Bandou when she takes Satou's MP5 and wounds him with a burst of fire. In spite of this, Bandou managed to fight with her for a while, avoiding both her vectors and objects thrown with the aforementioned vectors. Bandou immediately fires his MP5 at Lucy, but she blocks the bullets with her vectors. Lucy reveals her abilities when she uses her telekinetic "vectors" to kill Satou by cutting him to pieces. When Bandou punched her, however, Lucy reverted to her normal violent, sadistic personality, though he does have a sense of honor and loyalty to to his few allies. Bandou is disgusted by her lack of resistance, and, figuring she doesn't offer a significant enough challenge, punches her, knocking her to the ground, and then orders his partner, Satou to kill her. Bandou encounters "Lucy" on a beach in a Kanagawa prefecture, however, Lucy is at this point in her child-like alternate personality, "Nyu". From his first appearance, Bandou proves himself to be highly unstable, sadistic, and highly skilled in combat. Bando first appears when is sent to eliminate Kaede "Lucy", an escaped specimen highly dangerous mutated human subspecies known as a diclonius. Highlight blank space to read text.īandou is an ex-National Police Agency Special Assault Team (Japanese Equivalent of SWAT) officer who plays a major role in the anime and manga Elfen Lied. Note: Major spoilers for the manga in black. One of her funnier aspects being quite forgetful, implying that her brash attitude caters to her stupidity one moment unable to recall remembering Lotton the Wizard, let alone shooting him, during the Greenback Jane incident, much to Shenhua and Sawyer's amusement.(from Black Lagoon Wiki). However, she seems to respect and trust her companions. This is further suggested in a later episode, when Revy specifically mentions the series.Ĭonstantly living on the edge of life, Revy has developed a rather bleak, almost nihilistic outlook on life, relying only on her own power, skills, and money. Since the 27th Precinct does not exist in real-life New York City, this throwaway reference may - or may not - indicate an odd connection to Dick Wolf's Law and Order franchise. There's many other indications as well (such as when she tries to protect his innocence in Japan, and her fierce reaction to Jane's interest in involving Rock in an orgy in a later chapter), which other characters have noticed and even touched upon, with one person noting it was unusual to see Revy not by Rock's side now.Īccording to CIA agents on Basilan Island, towards the end of episode 12, Revy is still notorious in the NYPD, particularly at the 27th Precinct. It is possible that she has an attraction to Rock, based on her reactions to Eda's teasing, which appear to be jealousy. However, she does have a tendency to save Rock from critical situations, and later on she admits to considering Rock as family to Balalaika. She shot Rock at point blank range, but he moved her gun at the last second, during a confrontation in episode 7, and in episode 1 emptied most of a magazine in his direction while arguing with Dutch about their hostage. She has a changing but volatile attitude towards Rock, the newest and most humble crew member of the Black Lagoon though she respects him later in the series, she is mostly hostile towards him. She takes maniacal glee in killing anyone and everyone. Of all the characters in the series, Revy uses the most foul language. (In the anime, she was stopped by Dutch when she began her killing spree, after she shot one in the leg.) She is also a heavy smoker and drinker. Dutch once made reference to University of Texas shooter Charles Whitman in describing Revy after she slaughtered the crew of the Neo-Nazis' boat after a previous conversation with Rock brought up some unpleasant memories, resulting in an internal fit of rage - she even threatened Rock with death if he ever questions or tampers with her way of life. Revy is a merciless and sadistic killer, without a conscience, who will kill anyone at the slightest provocation, even unarmed civilians (as seen in episode 6).
