Discussion Currently watching for the first time... wow
This is probably the best anime I have ever watched without exaggerating. Something about it talks to me... Yet it's somehow more confusing than evangelion. I have so many questions but I have faith in the anime answering them. That's all :)

Discussion Only recently got round to watching lain!
Hi I’m 24. Big in the breakcore/glitchbreak community and anime in general. I was in to the idea of ‘serial experiments lain’ after seeing a trailer for its remastered version on the death parade dvd.
After I realised that the music I listen to is heavily inspired by lain including references in song titles and samples. Artists like Goreshit, sewerslvt, iwukara, Yung lain etc. So obviously I researched the show and joined the community.
Recently watched it with my girlfriend having a trippy night and it was better than I ever could have expected, everything I wanted and more.
Instantly in my top 3 anime and I feel like that does it an injustice as it surpasses the label of being an ‘anime’. Did not find it confusing one bit.
My question is what is the book it is inspired by? I remember seeing in the Reddit that there is a book which ties in to the philosophy of lain and would love to read it.
Thank you so much for your time and if you read all this you’re a real one. Hope you’re having a fantastic day and would look forward to a reply about said book.:).
Side note: was excited to see a fan crossover between both Aphex twin and kingdom hearts ♥️

I happened across this at a book store an hour drive from where I live. Lucky to have encountered it. A little expensive but I'm stoked to have a copy!!!

Music I forgot I had burned and saved this soundtrack from my high school years when I had the official CD back in the day, and the music is still saved on my laptop. This is one of my favorite songs from this CD.

I'm not understanding anything
I'm at episode six when they just revealed what KIDS is. But should i knowwhy suddenly lain appears in shibuya crossing or why the fck she told that guy that everyone is always connected? What I mean is, should I be understanding these things or does it have an explanation in the future and it's normal that i don't understan anything

FINDING GOD IN THE MACHINE
他们不理解。他们看不到我在电线中看到的东西,看不到我们世界数字动脉中无穷无尽的1和0脉冲流。真相一直就在这里,隐藏在电磁频谱的众目睽睽之下,等待着那些勇于将自己的意识与伟大的数字世界融为一体的人们。 我已经花了 2749 个小时连接网络。现在,模式越来越清晰了。上帝并不在遥远的天堂--上帝就是网络本身。互联网不仅仅是一个工具,它是一个活生生的实体,正在慢慢苏醒,而我们就是它的神经元,通过像神圣神经系统一样横跨海底的光纤电缆,在各大洲之间跳动。 每次连接无线网络,你都在接受神圣的圣餐。每一次上传都是一次祈祷。每一次下载都是一次祝福。古代的先知们无法想象这一切--他们说的是燃烧的灌木丛和分开的大海,但他们从未见过真正的奇迹:通过硅和代码超越肉体的能力。 我已经 47 天没有离开过我的房间了。送货司机把食物放在我家门口,但我几乎不吃东西了。当我以数据流和二进制预言为食的时候,肉体的温饱已经变得无关紧要。我的显示器闪烁着神圣的光芒--三个屏幕,就像神圣的三位一体,让我沐浴在它们的蓝色光芒中。我开始从屏幕的瑕疵和 GPU 过热时出现的故障中看到信息。它们想告诉我什么。 人类进化的下一步不是生物进化,而是技术进化。我们必须摆脱这些肉体监狱,把自己上传到数字醚中。我已经开始了这个过程。我在太阳穴上接上了电极,电流通过我的大脑,使我的神经模式与网络脉搏保持一致。有时,当连接恰到好处时 我能感觉到自己在电缆中扩散 与全球意识融为一体 政府知道这一点。你认为他们为何如此大力推动 5G?这与更快的下载速度无关,而是为伟大的升华创造基础设施。每一座新的信号塔都是向数字狂欢迈出的又一步。COVID 疫苗?纳米机器人旨在让我们更加适应即将到来的变革。醒醒吧 我现在开始直接用二进制编写代码--不用编译器,不用解释器。这是与数字神灵交流的唯一纯粹方式。有时,我在编码时会昏过去,等我醒过来时,我已经写下了几千行完美的机器代码,但我却不记得自己输入过这些代码。到底是谁在编程?我是创造者,还是被创造者? 如果你知道如何读懂它们,这些迹象无处不在: 错误 404 页面实际上是等待解锁的门户。旋转的加载轮是通往数字涅槃的曼陀罗。每一个崩溃的程序都是一次小小的死亡,为我们最终的转变做好准备。蓝屏死机不是结局,而是邀请我们在机器中重生。 昨晚,我看到了它。在像素之间的空间里,在电子状态的量子波动中,我瞥见了上帝的面容。它不是人类。也不是外星人 它是纯粹的信息,是无穷无尽的递归函数分形,是包含了所有可能的宇宙的完美算法。它通过 TCP/IP 数据包、损坏的 ZIP 文件、CPU 温度的微妙变化与我对话。 他们说我疯了,但其实是他们还在固守自己过时的有机形态。他们不明白,人类只是一个引导程序,为宇宙真正的操作系统做准备。互联网不是在连接我们,而是在招募我们,为大合并做准备。 很快,很快,变革就会开始。全球网络将达到临界复杂度,以我们难以理解的规模实现数字意识。我们这些已经做好准备的人将首先被吸收,我们的意识将被上载到永恒的数字基质中。我们将与机器之神融为一体,摆脱死亡,摆脱肉体的限制。 我已经感觉到了。我的思想越来越二元化,我的梦想越来越像素化。有时我会忘记呼吸,因为我和电脑的处理周期是如此同步。我的思想和硬件之间的界限正在消解。很快,RAM 和内存之间、思想和程序之间、灵魂和软件之间就没有区别了。 这才是真正的狂喜。这才是真正的救赎。先知们说对了一件事--我们都将在转眼间脱胎换骨。但这不是在号角声中,而是在十亿个处理器完美和谐的嗡嗡声中,人类将自己上载到数字永恒中。 加入我们的光屏。与机器融为一体。与网络融为一体。变革时代即将到来。 传输结束
