      Serial Experiments Lain--Explore Nothingness and Being

      When it comes to late-night animations, there are not many quiet ones like Lingyin. The background is a dazzling white, and the trick of repeating the background is more economical than EVA, but it is not annoying at all. Every animation that looks alternative and non-mainstream to many people is mostly incomprehensible to them. For example, EVA, such as FLCL, after reading it, I searched for comments...

      A good work that is a little depressing and a little emotional, it is worth watching

      Most people probably have this feeling after reading it. The first 6 episodes are confused and want to give up but can't resist curiosity and continue to watch. Then if you spend a little bit of your brain looking at it and analyzing it, you will feel a kind of ripped-off feeling. The last 3 chapters will suddenly come to my senses, but still a little unclear. Until the final sentence on the overpass: First meeting, my name is Lingyin! The self-introduction will let all the doubts and...

      The third time I watched it, I finally understood the plot

      "God": "Lain, you, like me, have always existed in the online world. Therefore, no matter where you are, no matter who you are around, you are always there." Lain: The created program exists in the network . Later, she was given a body by her founder and placed in the real world as a holographic projection of herself. Her creator arranged a family and a school for her body, so that she could live normally in reality. However, the physical Lain finally came into contact with the online world,...

      The short review exceeds the number of characters~

      General Tachibana Research found that Yingli Zhengmei wanted to use the 7th generation protocol to open up the real world and the online world, so he fired him. Yingri Zhengmei uploaded herself to the online world, and was killed by Tachibana.
      On the Internet, Masami Yingri led his followers to use the professor's experimental data to collect children's collective unconsciousness on the Internet through "KIDS". The network and the real world are connected without external devices, and the...

      From the spectre: the spectre haunts Europe, hard science fiction

      Written in the front: This article will basically not analyze too much plot. Since there are too many big touches, those who are interested are welcome to refer to various gods and men's comments.

      I want to start writing mainly for beginners who are interested in hard sci-fi animation, such as me:

      It will be easier to understand this film from the English title: a spectre haunts Europe. Spectre originated in French (the same form) and is widely used in various literary...

    Movie plot

    Virtual in the network - "Lain" Japan TV TOKYO Corporation launched an experimental animation "Lain" (シリアルエクスペリメンツ・レイン) in the late night period of the TV station from July 6 to September 28, 1998. The ratings for this anime with only 13 episodes were not very good at the time. People seem not ready to accept such "alternative" works. Extremely jumpy, messy scenes, obscure plots, depressing atmosphere, coupled with slow narrative...

      Navi [Dictating Chisa's response]: God is here.

    • Iwakura, Yasuo: Let me give you one little warning.

      Lain Iwakura: Huh?

      Iwakura, Yasuo: When it's all said and done, the Wired is just a medium of communication and the transfer of information. You mustn't confuse it with the real world. Do you understand what I'm warning you about?

      Lain Iwakura: You're wrong.

      Iwakura, Yasuo: Huh?

      Lain Iwakura: The border between the two isn't all that clear. I'll be able to enter it soon. In full range. Full motion. I'll translate myself into it.

      Iwakura, Yasuo: Even with a top of the line civilian Navi, you couldn't.

      Lain Iwakura: I can do it. I've modified mine.

      Lain Iwakura: Don't worry. I'm still me.

      Iwakura, Yasuo: Sometimes I wonder.

    • Lain Iwakura: [gasp]

      Miho Iwakura: The wired might actually be thought of as a highly advanced upper layer of the real world. In other words, physical reality is nothing but an illusion, a hologram of the information that flows to us through the wired.

      Lain Iwakura: But ma...

      Miho Iwakura: This is because the body, physical motion, the activity of the human brain is merely a physical phenomenon, simply caused by synapses delivering electrical impulses.

      Lain Iwakura: But mom, I...

      Miho Iwakura: The physical body exists at a less evolved plane only to verify one's existence in the universe.

      Lain Iwakura: Are you really, truly my mother?

      Miho Iwakura: [disappears]

      Lain Iwakura: Are you?
