@blackbird1016 I havem't watch this ep yet I'm about to. But I read that a lot of the things that are happening are actually not real, just Lain's delusions, apparently she isn't mentally stable.
....wth y the history junk....n lol am i the only one who posted how everything n eeverybody looks animated while the history ppl look like pics of real life ppl.....weird.....
ah yea, another interesting tidbit. at 4:09 when the awesome alien appears, that was mentioned in epiosde 3 part 3 (in this uploader's playlist) at 8:12 and describes precisely what lain sees, although it's a kid instead of an alien. perhaps in that episode what we heard were lain's thoughts, or perhaps this is lain's projection of what that person saw.
So the writer came to the same conclusions on the same topics I stumbled upon on the web, years ago.
Roswell is one of many crashes, the Treaty expires eventually, they ate Mulder's sister and Lilly really did break dolphin language...before he "drowned".
@thefadingmoonlight, it's not at all, reread the disclaimer in the beginning. That's so you note that in Lain's reality, those rumours might have been validated as truth for her universe.
You don't think those Navis, nanomachines and Psyche chips and KIDS projects came from Earth tech do you??
In our reality, all those events are still redtaped/black markered documents. that's the scary part.
bear suit is god of wired!!! you and me my friend will be the only survivors in this bear eat bear world for showing an upmost loyalty to our bear suit herritage
I said 2 my self thru this whole anime, that i wud not type a comment about how freakish it waz cuz i thought i've seen it all!!! man i was soo wrong!
This video makes me want to live in japan... i want to be lains friend... seriously. this already existed in someones head. How do we know it isnt a true story? How do we know they havent already expaned upon this? Japanese are so much more advanced than us.
Because... the dude who made the show also makes other anime shows, and has said he made this basically as a metaphor for the impact the internet will begin to have on people's lives? The Japanese really aren't that much more advanced than us. Not enough to transmute people's conciousness into streams of electronic computer data, at least. It's fun that you allow yourself that much imagination, though.
To be honest, this show is making me not want to live in Japan. I mean so far, it puts a fairly ominous frame on world wide web. It makes me want to go camping. The sad truth is that it's only out of spite for urban life, or the pressure to have such a mindset. Same feeling as the pressure to not eat fast food, except maybe a little less rational.
I also really like that analysis, Ophelialmmortal.
rofl, guess I shoud've seen ur message earlier :P, watched it at night as well, first when I saw the form of the alien in the door I was like " o.O" and then when I saw it I was like " o.O!" and then when it smiled I was like " o.O!!"
i no wen i saw the ailen im liek AHHHHH!!! and i immediately closed the tab, still screaming..... (i always have at least 3 tabs open: vid im watching, my utube inbox, and my channel)
the way I see its depicting how people have deires and perseption.
Desires for what hthey want, and what they want to be. Though even if they reach, or by reaching what they desire, pr how they want to percieve things they never quite do but at the same time theyve all had reached it.
ie
Lain wanted to be connected, she ways in a way, he friends did reach out to here and care about her. But she wanted a different type of connection, or relationship
She slowly reached the metamorphisis she wanted, in her on eyes, that doesnt have bearings for how others see us. Thats why they use the Wired, its a metaphor for third party perspective. We exist when a third party recognizes us and vice versa. THey are the same but different, somtimes the way we see ourselevs isnt how others see us. That because we can never share though like a computer can be wired to something else.
the futile effort to try to connect to other people is in us all, and it cuold even cause dilemas. IE the "rumors", or in real life people getting offended, or to an extreme war.
I could go on as well about how I feel this anime depicts perception of reality and individuality and the struggle we have to be an individual and yet be like others so we can "connect" to them.
when I said people getting offend. I meant that sometimes in conversation w mean one thing and people intepert in a different way why cause theyre in dividual seperate from us, with thier charcter and personalty due to thier nature and experiences. Theat failure in communication is the suase of some much strife, yet we will always try to "connect" to others.
At this point of the story, i think this anime is just a reflection of the today's real world. Sometimes we are not aware of what we do, what we think or what we feel, and we just live in some kind of dream, like perpetual unconsciousness. Then we realize this and we try to escape from it, and we create alter egos to resist and fix up this.
many maseges, truth what asdfgh200, but if you see yourself more often you notice your life is just like lain or worst, really think how you own, no common people, people that you never see... dificult to understand but analising yourself you notice life is not that easy for those how are slaves to plastic.
well i understand to the point, i treat it as a puzel from the info u learned from past eps and the continuing eps u see paterns like the symbol on the syuff she getss is the knight symbol and u can say that she has multiple personalites and everything revolves around wired a comuter progam athat hackers r basicly controling the real world and the wired world at the same time...and that Lina is supposly a prodigy basicly that is wat i'v come up with.
I noticed that Lain's childish persona in the Real World wears Bear pajamas and is reserved and shy. Maybe with all the crazy stuff going on in her life at the moment she's trying to obtain a sense of relaxation or calmness for the moment. Her Bear pajamas represent her innosence. Innocence in the presence of the Wired
9 episodes into the series, and my mind has already been confused, falsely led, and then dropped down a pit since episode 1. I'm recovering nicely though.
so is this an anime or is this a fuckin documentary on extra-terrestrials??
