HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>324213402
damn, this seems pretty cool
let's all love lain
>>324215151
yes
should i watch lain or nhk if i really liked evangelion?
i don't really care about waifus and i think the whole otaku culture shaming thing a lot of anime do gets really old really fast, i get it, otakus suck, can we move along instead of dragging on with this riveting, biting commentary that's never been done before
LAIN?
get him online i'll call it in
>>324212158
Tell me about Lain, why does she wear the onesie?
>>324212158
And you don't seem to understand.
A shame, you seemed an honestfaggot
>>324216479
Because you don't seem to understand
>>324216259
yes you should.
NHK is depressing and realistic view of hikkis and does make you get of your ass and start getting shit done.
Lain is mindfuck watch it it's short and good.
>>324216609
>>324216721
thanks anon
>>324216479
it's cute
I recently watched Lain and holy fuck I don't know why but it made me feel physically sick. I mean it was a good show but it just made my stomach feel like it was gonna explode, same feeling I got from watching Beyond The Black Rainbow.
>>324216479
>>324215590
AND YOU DON"T SEEM TO UNDERSTAND

>>324219181
SHAME YOU SEEMED AN HONEST MAN
Best waifu
>>324218945
I'm not sure about the film but I think Lain uses some really low, high-pitched sound samples.
coupled with the high contrast, that shit is schizophrenia-inducing.
>>324218945
I loved that movie
>>324216259
evangelion, lain, and nhk are my favorite anime
lain's my favorite though
>>324212158
Quit posting my waifu
>>324212387
you check out files in a directory in a semi-random order (some are unlocked after looking through a certain file)
they can be video/audio recordings of psychiatric sessions Lain undergoes and other stuff related to her life
the story in the game is apparently pretty different from the tv show
I really want to check it out fully someday
>>324219627
i dont get this image
>that one time I went on worlds.com and someone had an avatar that was the alien from lain
weird shit.
>>324216259
watch Texhnolyze instead. it's another anime by ABe and feels like Evangelion.
it's really hard to sit through and I guess that's why it's so unpopular, but by the end everything comes together and you'll feel like shit.
lain
>>324219823
that one part, man. I wasn't entirely sure what was going on so ayys were the last thing on my mind.
scared me shitless.
>>324219823
SEL predicted cell phones, message/imageboards, anonymous and cult-like internet communities, the widespread usage of the internet, and memes.
The alien was a small part of it all.
>>324219852
> watch Texhnolyze
Sure.
> instead
Lol no, it eventually gets good but the dry as hell first half ensures that Lain's the better show as a whole.
>>324219514
>waifu
DO NOT SEXUALIZE
>>324220182
It's nothing like Evangelion, though.
>deep philosophical diatribe on what it actually means to be alive
>suddenly Lain's best friend is fingering her pussy to thoughts of their school teacher
It's been over ten years since I saw it, and Lain remains by far the weirdest show I've ever seen, in any format, from any country.
>>324220172
Those things already existed in 1998
>>324220267
Lain is pure daughteru
Epic anime recommendation thread guys
>>324220370
lain predicted that the internet would become an integral part of the infrastructure of the human mind and eventually resonate with the earth's crystalline upper layers.
"the dead have nowhere to go" or something like that.
>>324220635
I recommend bending over so I can fuck you in the ass
>>324220652
people were predicting that since the early '90s, man.
we're still far from Lain's level, though. if the US power grid fails for instance, all you get are dead servers.
Does anon have significantly younger siblings/other young relatives they are close to? Do you think their worldview differs a lot, if any, from having grown up surrounded by modern computers, smart devices and social media, rather than seeing them grow up (perhaps alongside yourself, depending on your own age?)
>>324220635
it doesn't get any better than Patlabor. https://youtu.be/1dmlwhaEEgE
Aside Lain are there more 2deep4u anime out there?
I mean aside Eva and GitS
>>324221252
Ergo Proxy
>>324221082
yes. their IQ is clearly rising but they're as introspective as a rock.
borderline retarded, actually.
>>324221252
What are you looking to get out of them?
Ok I'm genuinely interested in this. Should the game be played after watching the anime or the other way around? Or are the two not related?
>>324221252
Everything in Genius Party
>>324221082Not really, my little sister spends all her time on her cell phone, but also thinks that people are too dependent on technology like me. She doesn't think much differently from me fundamentally. Although she thinks she is the center of everything, but that's just a trait of being a teenager which social media doesn't have much of an effect on.
>>324221313
I heard its entry level as fuck
That and Steins Gate
>tfw powerlines don't hum like they do in anime
>>324221313
Ergo Proxy is really fucking shallow. like Evangelion, coincidentally.
>>324221252
anything by ABe is a good start. you might wanna check Devilman (the manga) and Ideon, too.
Ideon particularly will make you feel like shit.
>>324221583
They do in the winter if you live in a cold enough climate for it
>>324221252
Anime will never be "too deep"
>>324221381
They're largely independent of each other, the stories in each are independent. The game supposedly has a few details that are never brought up in the anime, but they're kinda insignificant things.
>>324221583
They do when it's cold
>>324221583
they used to.
>>324221625
>Eva
>Shallow
What deep for you then? Angel's Egg?
>>324221252
Texhnolyze
>>324221252
There are movies like Perfect Blue and Paprika.

>>324221252
the tatami galaxy
monster
oyasumi punpun (actually a manga but worth a read)
>>324221629
>>324221672
I live in the southwest so I guess that explains why I've never heard them hum.
What's the Lain of 00's and 2010's?
>>324221752
I wouldn't say Satoshi Kon is 2deep4u, although his works are all fantastic
>>324221583
the ones near me do
I live up by some train tracks in the bushes, and there's a large power station dug into the rock there. When you walk buy it hums just like in lain.
My house is just below the train tracks.
>>324221828
>Oyasumi pun pun
>Deep
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>324221885
I know but it's the closest thing i could think about that hasn't been mentioned yet, also Aoi Bungaku but then again it's not what you'll consider "deep" but it's got a great atmosphere and story-telling.
>>324221715
Angel's Egg is more artsy than deep, like Mushishi.
other than the ones I mentioned, from the top of my head, Paranoia Agent and the Patlabor movies.
Dont know if its ok to post these but what the hell

720P BD Rips of the full series
>>324222432
I already have all those, faggot
Explain why was Lain deep
>>324222561
I know majority have em. For those who still dont.
And its kinda obligatory for some reason
>>324222668
it predicted the future
>>324222432
>720p rips
fucking casual
>>324222668
It's not really deep, just a weird and unique entry in a stagnant medium
>>324222767
No, it's not faglord.
Stop spoonfeeding
Should I watch SEL?
A friend told me it was confusing as shit like Madoka
>>324222878
The original is 480p, it's not special to have an upscaled bloated version when software upscaling works just fine.
>>324222432
>Fan album
No thanks
>>324223171
If you thought Madoka was too confusing then honestly you probably shouldn't
>>324223369
Madoka is as deep as Lain tho
Both entry level
>>324223171
>Madoka
>confusing
wut
Madoka is shit doing its own, deconstruction thing, how could you possibly find it confusing?
>>324223479
What is wizard level?
>>324223479
It's really not.
Out of curiosity, what would you consider deeper than those if they're both entry-level?
>>324223635
Toradora
>>324223195
>upscaled
LMAO
>>324223479
oversimplifying things, Lain is a glorified tinfoil theory. Madoka is moe magical girls with a shit twist.
there's a huge power gap between the two.
>>324222668
and you dont seem to understand

>>324221082
im from the generation you seem to be thinking of and really cannot imagine what it would have been like to live pre-internet. i was on the net since about the age of six. i have severe mental health issues and probably would have committed suicide if i hadnt found communities of people like me
>>324221625
>Ergo Proxy is really fucking shallow. like Evangelion, coincidentally.
im so glad someone else on this planet thinks eva is pretentious trash. babby's first fake deep media honestly
>>324222432
thank you!!
>>324224567
I'm the anon who asked the question, I'm 23 right now and have been actively using the Internet from around 2001-2002. Computers were already being used for education at school but it wasn't common for everybody to have access to the Internet at that point, most families maybe had a PC at home but it was only for adult use or whatever, my mom let me use hers though. Everyone did get mobile phones pretty early, I remember all those fucking Nokia 3310s. Then suddenly everyone had their own computer in one form or another, and the Internet blew up with social networking sites. My memory may be rose-tinted and unreliable in some ways but I remember that the world was pretty different around the turn of the millennium. So, I like to consider myself as part of the last few generations who saw the change firsthand. I think it's a really interesting question how much people take for granted when they grow up with these things.
I've found a lot of friends and other forms of comfort through the Internet as well.
Good job at babysitting an offtopic thread fucking idiot
Now we have the blogposts >>324225696
>>324225696
im your age, but i was on the net continuously since the midish-90s. different experience i guess.
>>324222432
How do I open that wired fangame?
>>324225827
>ontopic discussion in an offtopic thread is bad
I guess I could have formatted the post to be less about me but I crave for opinions on this
>>324226206
Yeah, I'm thinking different countries probably also had some year gaps in how fast people adapted to new tech.
>>324221625
>Ideon
Goddamn it I wish that series would get a dub and some more exposure. And an SoC reissue.
Already seen the subs, I just think dubs are nice.
>>324221625
>Devilman (the manga)
This, this, this. Holy fucking shit, it's one of the most nihilistic things I have ever seen, not what you'd expect from a shonen manga.
>>324222432
>Omnipresence in the Wired
>Visual Experiments Lain
Thank you, I've been struggling to get these.
>>324221625
>>324228414
Original 1972 one?
>>324229889
Yes.
>>324220330
Up until that point Lain's growing omnipresence was a good thing - giving her more and more info about what she desired to know.
Then suddenly it started responding to simple wims and she witnessed something she both didn't want to, and something that violated the only human she gave a fuck about's trust.
It also forced her to act on reality in a very precise way.
