Serial Experiments Lain 11 part 2

[BecomingAdrian]

I wonder if her name is actually supposed to be 'Rain'. It's not like we would be able to tell either way; Japanese doesn't make any distinction between the two sounds.

[BecomingAdrian]

Oh I'm sorry, was I supposed to take Alien Lain seriously? I just laughed.

[hotelmario510]

I reckon this makes perfect sense if you play it backwards.

On LSD.

[laralou21]

i love to see peoples reaction after watching a clip of this... XD

[Fockersd]

Wait - so if everything is a lie, why is lain talking to her "friend"?

[hotelmario510]

@Fockersd It's the only thing keeping her sane?

[tahiandnanishow]

i didnt want to blink watching this..=D

[slagroomsuusje90]

alien Lain looks so ridiculous x) made me laugh.. still wearing the christmas sweater huh

[XhubiuXRock]

rather stupid than psychological...the writer wants to make it mysterious/interesting, who totally fails. story line is ok though

[EmoraChan13]

@XhubiuXRock 10+ years ago people did consider this trippy. Then the Matrix came along. A lot of people still think that's a mind%@k.

[GirlWithCrappyGuitar]

@EmoraChan13 My thing is, I could follow the Matrix... this is impossible. But awesome xD

[EmoraChan13]

@GirlWithCrappyGuitar All you have to do is be objective. It's like Lost. After the first couple episodes I was done. It's too simple. When people are subjective about things, subjects become more complicated than they really are.

[paperbullet1945]

I guess if you don't exist, you can walk down the street at night in your nightdress to talk to your dead classmate.

[Zassamell]

20 minute riff of confusion, ACTIVATE!

[SmogFish]

Funniest comment ive read on youtube

[kiosumiutaki]

LAIN IS THE.......ohhhhhh,ok hehe....

[EctInc]

Wow, this is probably the most straightforward episode so far.

that music is INTENSE.

[clowdycloud]

[Izuzu15]

@clowdycloud That is good and funny! No need to apologize!!!

[misuruchan]

^-^ good one

[KarenElhyam]

Mmm, budget falling through on a 13-episode long series. Good times.

[KuyaPedro]

I think it would be best if I rewatched this episode on acid.

[sk8tergirl101rules]

whats with that freakin alien!!!

[xxonebludxx]

MIND FUCKED AGAIN.

[landdeath]

around 5 :10 when Chisa comes ... reminds me of the game FEAR O.o (including the background music)

[landdeath]

and is Arisu using one of those Apple computers? lol

[KarenElhyam]

Natch.

[RuSosan]

Aaah,yea,FEAR,and the little girl with a chip on her shoulder...

Lovely game. xD

[lttomoe87]

I loooooove that game

[BelovedChirry]

Just one word is enough to tell everything about the series and that's MINDFUCKING.

[OpheliaImmortal]

That's the word I usually use to describe it, yeah.

[mokukiridashi]

Does anybody understand what the alien means?

[anaelyssa]

Good question. Here's another one: Does anyone know what most of the stuff in the series is?

(Does the person who made it know?)

[mokukiridashi]

well, do you?

[anaelyssa]

Uhhm. Well, the alien is a humanoid interface created for interaction by the integrated data entities that rule the galaxy. (Jk)

I have no idea either. The alien is so random... If anyone does know, I'd also be happy to find out.

[mokukiridashi]

okey

[b00biesage]

I have found the anime to be a symbol of how far society keeps going with technogly. Basically seeing how soon aliens and humans may live in one anothers world. If our technogly goes thar far, it could happen. It's not 100%, just a thought xD.

[littledeadybear]

A valid point, but I think this anime actual centers around the theme of self worth, and the clarification of the importance of our own physical worth. This anime definitely talks about how far technology can go, to a point where we can become so obsessed with it that we want to live within it, but I truly think that its heart lays in the proof of our own self existence. Nothing, no matter what it is, can never take away our existence as long as we can stop and think, "I'm real."

[SuicidePanda123]

ok wtf why does lain have the aliens body thats creepy all i was thinking about was the aliens body. 0_0

[gusgeraci]

bad acid trip anyone?

the view count on these gets lower and lower as the series progresses!!!!!

[supershawnodeseninja]

@gusgeraci thats cause only wierdos watch the whole thing...

welcome to the club...?

[TaxDeducted]

Man, I bet this'd be great to watch high.

[NinjaSloth16]

@TaxDeducted i think if i watched this while high, i'd come down to realize i scratched most of my face off with shards of glass =/

[FuriousFRenZY]

@TaxDeducted dont bother id be a waste of weed or whatever you would plan to use.

[45Akira]

@TaxDeducted Are you telling me you watched this without being high?

[taylorgoff235]

@TaxDeducted

probably be the only way to understand it ...

[kikyou90]

5:03 - Ok... That was creepy. So frickin' cool... 8D

[stefan100000000]

[tifa111cloud]

[quimevideosa]
