Harada Yoshio and Abe Yoshitoshi and lain

Yoshio Harada is the director, specializing in the kind of boring cartoons that are played at 1 o'clock in the middle of the night, such as "lain", such as "Kino Journey". Although I like these two animations very much, I don't admire Harada very much, because the original work itself is amazing, so the animation is good, and I heard that the original work of "lain" is better than the animation, but unfortunately I can't find it, it's a pity pity!
lain's story is full of disturbing confusion from beginning to end: where did lain come from? What did his father and mother do? What does father want to do to lain? What does mother know? What is the role of the mysterious organization "night"? And those weird computer components, the dying old man and the secret experiments he's running, the so-and-so who thinks he's a god but is really just a resentful office worker (forgot his name), and even the ultimate computer with a mess of wires DIYer, who appeared and disappeared without a thought, all this started with the suicide of a female student - it was quite shocking, right?

    Lain Iwakura: Are you?

  • Lain Iwakura: People only have substance within the memories of other people. And that's why there were all kinds of mes. There weren't a lot of mes per se, I was just inside all sorts of people, that's all.
