I liked it, but I didn't get it.

tl;dr internet merged with everything in the world including television radio etc. some faggot managed to find a way to merge internet with reality, uploaded himself to the wired but he can only control the virtual world lain is the key to merging oti with irl so he tries to convince her to help, she refuses, hilarity ensures and at the end lain becomes literal goddes

pretty sure it's for angsty trannies with programmer socks.

More like teenagers who won't shut up about how everything was better in the 90's.

People call it cyberpunk

Deus Ex was cool though.

cyberpunk-ish motives were popular in 80-90s animu. you had GITS and akira and bubblegum crisis etc. i always considered lain to be low cyberpunk since it had a little cyberpunk in it

Deus Ex was cool though.

OG deus ex was great, people who like boomer games still masturbate to it on regular basis. later games were shit imo, except for human revolution which had decent gameplay but completely changed entire setting and general aesthetic

God, Halo ruined FPS.

Couldn't have summarized it better myself.

that failed cyberpunk game is over with so it's ok to like cyberpunk I just didn't care all that much for Lain and meming it is kinda weird I have a bunch of random Lain shit saved because it winds up in my scraper.

 

[O.G.Lurkmoar]

Its GITS: the laughing man incident, but with more angsty emo

 

[Sleepy]

im 99% certain its not supposed to make sense. its like evangelion for people who are 2 cool for evangelion.

It's a fine show. More than anything I like the visual direction of the series. The sound design is a great too. If there is a problem with this show, it's that it attracts pretentious hipsters, who sing praises without really meaning it.
