This show has a lot of stuff to talk about. I could do a much longer video, but it seems others have done that. I wanted to focus on the core theme and message. But I do find it it all fascinating. Like Lain splitting into two people, because she feels the Wire version of her is different than her real version. Interesting how they knew people would act differently online. This adds to the horror, because there is a fear of self. Which plays into isolation, because she doesn't believe she even has herself. And with that fear of self, the more she wants to separate herself from others. Plus, how in the Wire everyone around her just becomes her echoing back to her. Further increasing the isolation she feels. She feels there is no one but her, and she doesn't want that. Anyway, interesting show!
As a SEL fan and lain obsesser for over 4 yrs you have described the theme and message very well! The message the show is trying to convey the audience is how online persona and in real life personality signifies the importance of being in touch with reality and escaping reality. This also emphasises how much time is spent in the internet (wired) and how connected people feel whereas a person who isn’t rlly into the internet may not feel connected and attached. Because lain is connected and bonded in the wired she creates 2 selfs and meets other people like her but also warns her about having an online persona and mentions their experiences and existence. I analysed her and the show so I would to say more but I think this is worth mentioning the most :3
@@Lainpresentstomoko I tried my best to boil down the main message, but I've been thinking that down the line I should do a much more expansive review or this show, because there is so much to talk about. And thank you, your comment was very insightful!
@@la912 No, the anime was an original idea. I know there is a videogame attached to the anime, but I have never played it. I kind of wanted to review the anime as is. I'm not sure, the game might have multiple alternate endings. I certainly know of one. There might be a manga of Lain produced after the anime, but I have never seen it.
@@justnoah2073 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ By all means be confidently wrong if you want. "Exasperate" is an adjective, "exacerbate" is a verb. You can't "exasperate" something, and it definitionally doesn't make sense

@@ElTurbandito No I invented a new word that's spelled "exasperate" which means the same thing as "exacerbate."
