Elfen Lied
Plot: The story begins with a naked young girl named Lucy who escapes under odd circumstances from an island research-facility off the coast of Kamakura in the Kanagawa Prefecture of Japan. Lucy manages to nonchalantly dismember and slay 23 (14 in the manga) of the staff and guards with some form of seemingly supernatural power and gets outside. A sniper is ordered to kill her but only manages to ricochet the bullet off the metal helmet encasing her head. Lucy falls off a cliff into the sea and is not found again by the research staff.
Lucy is not a normal human but in fact a Diclonius which is a mutant strain of humans who have two small horns on their heads (hence the name diclonius) and possess telekinetic powers through use of their "Vectors", which are arms that project from the backs with varying numbers and length of reach depending on the diclonius.
The next day, a boy named Kouta arrives at Kamakura to meet his cousin Yuka. Kouta has come to study at a university there and has been given the use of an old family-owned inn, The "Maple (楓, kaede?) Inn", provided he acts as the caretaker there. After meeting with Yuka, they go to visit the beach and find Lucy washed up there, still naked and bleeding from her head. However, the head-trauma that Lucy has experienced has caused her to develop a split personality, "Nyū". In stark contrast, Nyū is completely docile, harmless and is incapable at first of saying anything other than "Nyū". Not knowing what to do with her, Kouta and Yuka take her back to the inn to look after her.
While Kouta, Nyū and Yuka begin settling into a new life, the researchers begin hunting for Lucy and characters on both sides find themselves in a situation much more complex than they originally anticipated.

Elfen Lied 11.5 Special
This episode takes place within episode 11 as Nana attempts to fit in the household while trying to find a chore that she can do and get used to Nyu's presence whom she only knows as Lucy. Running away after getting scolded, Nana ends up in the beach and meets Bantou whom she promised to bring Lucy to later that night. Leaving the household with Nyu, it begins to rain and Nyu slips, hits her head, and is knocked unconscious. As Bantou waits and everyone else worries where they might be, Nana, with an uncoscious Nyu, takes shelter as Lucy's consciousness begins to come out and dreams an old memory of how she was captured and why she doesn't attack Director Kurama. As the rain begins to let up, Kouta and the others find Nana and Lucy and takes them home. There, Nana finally finds the chore that she will be doing - feeding the dog.
