Serial Experiments Lain

I don’t fully narratively understand Serial Experiments Lain narratively. In fact, while watching the show I didn’t feel as if I understood it at all. This doesn’t count against the show though. In my opinion, it enhances it. Because while I never may have been able to decipher what exactly happening in the show, I had to consistently think and put the pieces together to understand what the show was trying to say. And I love that. I can’t even begin to articulate my feelings for this series without endlessly rambling on without making much sense so all I can really say is if you haven’t, watch Serial Experiments Lain. It’s an absolute mindfuck of a show that will leave you pondering your existence like every good surrealist artwork should.
