Lucy's circumstances were incredibly harsh, something both the Manga and the Anime, as the main character of both, go into great depth. In her case, parental abandonment was not merely a fear, but a reality. In the local orphanage, she faced multiple levels of pain and alienation. From the start, she was told flatly of her abandonment in the woods by her parents as an infant. This knowledge, in turn, engenders harsh questions that led to some level of self-loathing (and a deep resentment towards the parents that had seemingly abandoned her without a second thought, at some point mentioning once having expressed murderous intent towards them). The instructors and guardians in charge of her welfare barely concealed their loathing and contempt for her due to her horns. The other children like

  • Lucy's circumstances were incredibly harsh, something both the Manga and the Anime, as the main character of both, go into great depth. In her case, parental abandonment was not merely a fear, but a reality. In the local orphanage, she faced multiple levels of pain and alienation. From the start, she was told flatly of her abandonment in the woods by her parents as an infant. This knowledge, in turn, engenders harsh questions that led to some level of self-loathing (and a deep resentment towards the parents that had seemingly abandoned her without a second thought, at some point mentioning once having expressed murderous intent towards them). The instructors and guardians in charge of her welfare barely concealed their loathing and contempt for her due to her horns. The other children likely took the adults' indifference toward her as a cue to be ever more merciless and unrelenting in their attacks. As a defense, Lucy shut down her emotions, only for the vicious Tomoo to regard this as a challenge to overcome. By the time her murderous side (or instincts) fully surfaced, she had fully realized the last stage of an abused child's disconnect: Now, in her eyes, she was a 'real person,' whereas almost no one else was. Life had become a place of harsh transactions, where lessons had to be taught swiftly, merely to survive. This grim outlook culminated when, believing herself to be betrayed by Kouta, she murdered his family to punish him and to prove herself a force to be reckoned. What seemed transactional to her was instead horrifying and sickening to Kouta, a dichotomy she could not bear, and she fled the scene to sort out the repercussions of what she'd done on her own. As was later seen, Lucy's tolerance for abusive types remained low.
