Kurama proclaims that he is a hypocrite for having saved his own child at all costs, while ending the lives of so many others for the same reason. He also explains that he reasoned out how [[Silpelit]] Diclonius like Mariko, Number 3 and [[Nana]] infect men with the touch of their [[vectors]], causing the children these men sire to become Diclonius and spread the virus further, with only [[Lucy]], the 'Queen' able to reproduce. The desire for them to destroy Humans, both individually and as a species, is, by his account, etched into their DNA. Proclaiming himself responsible for any evil Mariko has in her or has done, he prepares to at last shoot her. Mariko becomes at first despairing and then enraged that her real father wishes to kill her, but is close to Nana instead. Kurama fires the gun, thinking that since Nana [http://elfen-lied.wikia.com/wiki/Papa_for_Two disabled] Mariko's vectors, she cannot stop him. But the bullet stops short as Mariko's powers kick into overdrive as her rage against her unfortunate fate grows. When [[Isobe]] again threatens her with the remote control for the [http://elfen-lied.wikia.com/wiki/Ways,_Choices explosives] implanted inside her, she severs the arm holding the cell-phone remote. |

The Sixty-Second chapter of the Elfen Lied manga series.
Kurama watches over his wife Hiromi, who suffered blood loss while stopping him from strangling their infant daughter Mariko, and who may not regain consciousness. Realizing fully that Number 3's touch altered him to sire Diclonius children, Kurama is also ridden with guilt at the thought that he has killed so many other children, but refuses to kill his own when she is shown to have horns. Once more he begins to strangle her, only to have Hiromi appear behind him, bleeding profusely and begging him not to kill their daughter before she dies. The narrative shifts back to the present.
Kurama proclaims that he is a hypocrite for having saved his own child at all costs, while ending the lives of so many others for the same reason. He also explains that he reasoned out how Silpelit Diclonius like Mariko, Number 3 and Nana infect men with the touch of their vectors, causing the children these men sire to become Diclonius and spread the virus further, with only Lucy, the 'Queen' able to reproduce. The desire for them to destroy Humans, both individually and as a species, is, by his account, etched into their DNA. Proclaiming himself responsible for any evil Mariko has in her or has done, he prepares to at last shoot her. Mariko becomes at first despairing and then enraged that her real father wishes to kill her, but is close to Nana instead. Kurama fires the gun, thinking that since Nana disabled Mariko's vectors, she cannot stop him. But the bullet stops short as Mariko's powers kick into overdrive as her rage against her unfortunate fate grows. When Isobe again threatens her with the remote control for the explosives implanted inside her, she severs the arm holding the cell-phone remote.
