and you don't seem to understand

Lain is an extremely high IQ anime. It’s not gateway like Naruto, Lycoris Recoil, or One Piece. You basically need to the be Any Forums equivalent of Light to truly appreciate it’s sublime and sophisticated message

a shame you seemed an honest man

You already posted this.

Lain is a computer program inserted directly into the noosphere(sum of all perceivable knowledge) so that it interprets itself as a 14 year old Japanese girl.
Through psychological manipulation, her creator was attempting to get Lain absorbed into the metaphysical idea of the internet so that reality would be re-written to resemble it, where her creator could LARP as god.

This was thwarted when her best friend reminded her that sometimes you need to go outside and touch grass. Lain then realizes that she's too dangerous to exist and retcons herself. Then god shows up and tells her it's all going to be ok.

The moral of the story is that the ability to communicate with millions of people at the click of a button is probably not healthy for our sanity.

>getting filtered by Lain of all anime
embarrassing, user.

She's reality itself.
The "Lain meets Kami" scene is the most significant scene in explaining what Lain is.
Lain is asking questions but Eri is talking, Eri is answering questions but Lain is talking.

Eri is inside Lain, but Lain is inside everybody.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Serial Experiments lain. The plot is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical informatics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Eri's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation - his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these themes, to realize that they're not just deep- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Serial Experiments lain truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the meaning in lain's existential catchphrase "Wubba Lubba Dub Dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Chiaki J. Konaka's genius unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools... how I pity them. ?? And yes by the way, I DO have a lain tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- And even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.
