Was this show actually good?
>>
>>138012815
Why does this show get so many threads even at this point in time?
Is because of the girl?
>>
>>138012815
2deep4u /pol/ tier deepthroat
>>
>>138013548
How is this show /pol/ in any way?
>>
>>138013623
because they all are faggots
>>
>>138012815
yes
>>
>>138014813
How is that /pol/ in any way?
>>
>>138012815
Yes
Must watch

it's 2003 4chan incarnate

>it's 2deep4u
It was very straightforward. Only thing I was confused by was the sister but that was cleared up 2 hours later

i love the pacing

the amount of long, still shots with no music or sound effects makes it feel really tense at all times, even if nothing is really happening
>>
Yes.
Now go watch it faggot
>>
>>138012815
I want to sexualize Lain.

Remember that she watches you everytime you masturbate.
>>
Is there an 1080p version where the Opening doesn't get cut?
>>
>>138017239
yes, you probably DLd coalgirls right?
>>
>>138017841
Yeah. Lain without Duvet is just no.
>>
>>138015740
>sound effects

The buzzing gets me.

>newfags think /pol/ is /x/

Can episode 2 be interpreted as either Lain lying or being completely off her rocker in regards to her activities on the Wired and sightings at Cyberia?
>>
Yes but I was hella stoned when I watched the last episode and none of it made sense.
>>
>>138018028
uhhh sure why not
>>
>>138017886
The coalgirls upload has the OP and ED, it's just separate and threaded in with each episode, what are you using to watch?
>>
>>138018028
Are you fucking asking this not having seen the entire show?
>>
>>138018266

Why not just answer the question? Christ.
>>
>>138018210
Really? I've dl'd their version of ep 1 and it was just started without Duvet. Maybe I was a little too impatient.
>>
>>138018109
Not like it makes sense sober.
>>
The ending made the most sense to me...

her sister, her dad and perhaps felt like fleeting characters, possibly hinting at Lain's god powers.
>>
>>138015396
Ayyy
>>
>>138018354

Where's that one anon who did a bunch of DMT, watched Lain and was convinced she was a real entity?
>>
>>138018386
her classmates*
>>
>>138018341
you have to download the whole batch for it to work. It decreases file size is the reason they do it.
>>
>>138018341
>>138018628
You could download the EP1, the OP and the ED and you'll still have an opening playing.
>>
>>138016996

that alien steal Freddy Kruger's sweater?
>>
>>138013281
The girl is a big part. There's also the fact that it managed to maintain high quality while still being weird and "deep".
>>
>>138012815
Reminder that Madoka will never come close to how good Lain's ending was and will always remain a gutless facsimile
>>
it's very good at describing isolation in an age of connectivity

it's got MGS2-tier levels of pseudo science

it played off of NGE's deconstruction themes while breaking new ground and further defining a post-eva anime climate

It's better than paranoia agent
>>
i thought the shows atmosphere was cool and it was fun to see how they thought technology would be in the near future or in some kind of alternate universe with more advanced stuff almost twenty years ago.

in particular i remember someone having a phone with kind of a touch screen but like a trackpad at the side of the screen instead of embedded in the glass.

also im jelly of lains battlestation.
>>
>>138019516
technology isn't actually that important for the overall message of the show
it's mostly just visual flavour
>>
>>138015265
>Only thing I was confused by was the sister but that was cleared up 2 hours later

How? What happened to her?
>>
>>138019598
the knights used her to spy on lain and fried her brain
she didn't know what was happening unlike the parents

or something like that
>>
>>138019573
i liked the flavor

it was more eva esque future shit but i like it.
>>
>>138019205

Has there been an anime nearly as good in the 00s or 10s?

Hiabane Renmei was better

>>138019929
>its fucking nothing: the animation
get out of here, out of ABe's works, it's the worst
>>
>>138019996
It's better than Texh desu (maybe not the first half of Texh)
>>
>>138020327
It really isn't.
>>
>>138019673
Like he said, Paranoia Agent.
