Don't dare to watch it a second time

Before reading "Lingyin", I was as keen as most of the people to solve the mysteries of this world, to clarify the logical relationship, and to know who the "God" is? How many Lingyin are there? What is the setting of this world?

But when I actually read it, I felt that the deep understanding of the world in the process was not so important.

All I can feel is loneliness, pain, sadness, helplessness, and even want to cry. I don't know who brought these emotions to me, is it Reine? or myself?

I haven't given much thought to the philosophical question, "existence"? "does not exist"? There is also no doubt about the reality of the world. I might just be so caught up in the role of Reine that I can't extricate myself.

I have seen many emotional works, but they have never given me such a strong emotional impact. Hahahaha, it's hard to imagine that I was actually beaten to death by a suspenseful sci-fi film.

In the end, people who see this don't laugh at me, it's just a pitiful moaning, maybe the poor Lingyin that he has become a carefree "god" in that world.

    The painting is simple and there are many still frames, but the blade is sharp, the performance is good, and the core and ideas are beyond the times. The stream of consciousness stacking clips is really interesting, and the logical connection before and after is also very good. The experimental works are too great to do this, and there is a vague temperament of film aesthetics.

Serial Experiments Lain quotes

  • 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.

    Iwakura, Yasuo: A Psyche processor, huh? But...

    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?
