I finally finished Serial Experiments Lain today, a good 3-5 years after we watched it in club. Now, you'd think I'd be used to it with how long I've been watching anime, but man that was a weird ending. Not mindfuck, so much, although there was a hint of that. Just... strange.
I'd like to watch it again and see if I can't understand it better next time, but right now I'm rather Lained out.

Lain, first show I've ever seen to do cyberpunk without concentrating on, like, violence. Yoshitoshi Abe ftw.

Not to say that there isn't ANY violence... I mean that one guy did get his brains blown all over Lain's face...
But yeah, there wasn't much of it.

Yeah, but for a cyberpunk comparison, look at GitS or Blade Runner. Almost entirely about people gettin' blasted on.
