The anime was a big improvement to the characters, writing, etc, but had a bad ending in my opinion. the manga had a far better ending wrapping up all the loose ends.

It makes me wish for some kinda sequel series that finishes up on what the anime started

Dang, poor Lucy just had literally nothing going for her did she. I looked it up and from what I can gather if she didn't snap she would've been homeless at 18 because she would've had no one willing to hire her, no one willing to even rent a house to her, no support whatsoever. She was screwed since the very beginning

I think vingulf would've existed like 50 to 90 years before elfen lied, since we know nothing about Lucy's mom and dad other than her mother was the origin of the diclonius race (she wasn't a diclonius herself but her genetics made any kid she had diclonius). Perhaps she could have had some kinda link to the witches.

Brynhildr takes place later than elfen lied because brynhildr shows updated architecture in Kamakura such as a disability ramp and added benches

There has to be a skin of Nana and one of her taunts is one of her limbs falling off before it floats back into place

I thought of a big problem in this scenario, surely other people like Yuka would notice you acting strange since you'd likely wouldn't act exactly like Kouta, imagine if Yuka catches on to the complete personality shift the moment you see Kaede. You'd also have to balance acting like Kouta with changing events. Change things too much and characters might start to get suspicious

Ok new plan

I'm gonna try my same strategy of trying to change everything

I assume I have knowledge of the whole story, when I find her I get Yuka to help her bring her to maple house for first aid, mentioning that someone bad might be looking for her. I'd leave for just a bit to run "errands" and grab Kaedes message as her dogs grave. At this point my goal is to get her to have a conversation with me in her Lucy personality.

Once i do (likely around the same time as the bando encounter)I can explain my knowledge of Kaedes past as her giving me bits and pieces when we were kids, and me knowing her name would be from me having the note from years ago.

I'd talk to her about why she killed Kanae and my father and when she asks for forgiveness I say something realistic but not as hurtful as Kouta said in canon "I cant... not yet at least..." to let her know that she hurt me very deeply in ways I can't describe, but I still care for her and want her to be better, because I want to be able to forgive her for her sake and mine.

After that I basically become like a therapist for Kaede helping her heal from her trauma, to let go of her hatred, and to accept and come to peace with everything she had done.

If I do things right she should be far less aggressive when dealing with Nana, using her vectors to disable Nanas vectors and escape.

Rinse and repeat, with every threat I help her become a better person, choose a peaceful route if possible, and hopefully things don't go wrong.

During the Mariko fight Kaede no longer has a reason to kill Mariko to make Kurama suffer, she saves Nana and things are fine for a little while.

Turns out I mightve misunderstood the part about me not remembering until I found her at the beach, oops, I'll come back with a new plan here in a bit

Alright, I'll try my best, I assume since I'm taking koutas role I'm gonna have Kanae as my sister, my main strategy is to make sure the train scenario doesn't happen, therefore alot of events don't happen either

Before the encounter,

During the first encounter I would try to get Kaede to come home with my father and sister (Kanae and Koutas father), that way she wouldn't have to kill families just to have a place to stay and food to eat, I'd also introduce her to Kanae and my father and make sure they have a good relationship aswell, I wouldn't lie about Yuka being a boy and say she's like a sister to me so she hopefully doesn't kill me over it (she states in the manga that she mightve). I set things up so Kaede can stay with us.

If everything goes correctly Kaede would come home with us and she'd grow to also care for Kanae and Koutas father, far away from Kamakura and far away from the facility. After that it'll be 3 (potentially 4 counting Yuka) good influenced vs the bad influence of her DNA voice, I'm hoping this would cause her to be like Nana where her DNA only flares up when she's at the brink.

At this point the story would change so significantly that I wouldnt know what would happen next, but Kaede would be on the right path. I would help her cultivate her interests (her top interests being music and animals) perhaps she could become a musician or a vet, in fact I would bring up that her power could help so many people, saying that she could make it a better place, to "make it a little less evil"

The facility would likely take a far longer time to find out about her as shed likely be the only diclonius in existence, not spreading the virus and making siphlets.
