I know the classic Elektra costume would look kinda ridiculous in the TV series but at least something that resembled it would have been nice.

I've only seen part of it tbh but I don't remember disliking it. It was bogus that the followup with Elektra happened in The Defenders though. Like, once I realized I'd missed a lot of Daredevil's character arc cause I hadn't watched it I got kinda pissed off.

The Punisher didn't start out in Daredevil. He started out in Spider-Man actually. But basically in season 2 of Daredevil (before season 1 of Punisher) he just shows up, starts massacring gang members and putting them on meat hooks, and it's ****ing brutal as ****. He's actually acting like The ****ing Punisher so you don't see a buildup of him going all Punisher, he just is the Punisher. BTW if you actually want to get a handle on Punisher in modern comics I'd say Garth Ennis' Punisher MAX series is a good way to go.
