I just finished watching this. Call me a brainlet if you must, but I'm still confused about it. What was the theme supposed to be? Why did lain delete herself? The ending was super confusing, I thought the experience was supposed to be enlightening.

So you don’t seem to understand?

Brainlet.

It's point is the then oncoming merging of the virtual and real selves.
It's not really a revelation to anyone under 30 since that's just been our reality our whole lives. It almost doesn't even feel like a point. Trust me though to the olds it is.

Lain deletes herself because she realizes that what she's become - a powerful entity in the Wired that she can't consciously control anymore - is hurting people, such as Arisu. And that Eiri's whole project is not good for humanity. At the end she realizes that - and I think this is even said by her dad or some shit - technology should remain a tool under human control and that the boundaries between the net and the real world shouldn't become blurred like they were.

Lets all love lain user

/thread
cyberia and lain theme are based

Holy shit shut the fuck up with this ayy lmao autistic lain shit. You've been doing this for like 3 fucking weeks get a fucking life you fucking autist.

It's really not that hard, user. Just watch it 3-7 more times and I'm sure you'll get a general understanding of it.
We all had to put in our time, so do you.

I'm giving OP a bump because you sound way more butthurt than you should. Lain was shit though, fucking boring trash.

newfag

That lost it's meaning as an insult 10 years ago.

You think too much and feel too little. You need a healthy balance to grok lain

But you're both new and a faggot. I think it still holds up pretty well.

S’up Ramsey, glad you finished watching it. We can talk about it over the discord if you want. I’m sure Sasha won’t care

enter the melancholy of suzumiya haruhi

i watched it 3 times and still think its shit. what do?

Lain has a Christian message, read the new testament and do a rewatch

Lain is good but only hispters really like it, most people just pretend to understand it to sound smart when in reality it's pretty incomprehensible, it's something along the lines of Lain nuking everything to screw with Masami because she doesn't like her for some reason that I don't remember.
Nothing really happens in the show into episode nine anyways, it's a bit of a snoozefest.

AND YOU DON;T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND

>I'm too dumb to understand so it means nothing

A shame he seemed an honest man.

>he thinks understanding an anime makes him smart

Lain is Jesus, she's the Wired and born from the Wired. Living as a human she learns ignorance and love while attempting to understand herself, ultimately completing the Wired's true assention to omniscience.
She sacrifices her mortal form to save humanity from the sin of attempting to create god.

I didn't understand it but I really enjoyed it anyway

...

Why did she feel the need to ascend to omnipotence though? I thought her entire goal was to live a normal life, hence why she made an effort to get along with her peers even though she knew she was abnormal. Sorry for the dumb question.

The point of the show is that Lain has severe schizophrenia. And also to have a nice spooky ambient atmosphere

dumb sataniaposter

This is a Lain a drew a while ago. I think it's pretty good so I'll post it again

It's cute user

cute lain

There was no normal life to go back to, her sister was driven insane like an HP Lovecraft protagonist and her classmates were dead and traumatized. Her parents can't be her parents either.

good job, big guy
