Lain is the ultimate pseud anime

>12 year old loli pantsu turns out to be god

there, just saved you the hassle of a disappointing punchline

It's beyond me how people don't understand SEL. Then again, OP just throws out the word "existentialism" without actually knowing what it means like the pseudo intellectual he thinks he is.

why pretend like this shit goes beyond its 2deep4u fad

Because people fail to "get it" every single time. This threads wouldn't exist otherwise.
Only retards describe things as "2deep4you", discarding any merit a piece of media has, and you know it.

If you want surface level philosophy because you find Lain too intimidating, just watch HxH.

quit, its actually nothing im warning you now, i was seething when they got into a big non info dump near the end, i couldnt believe it.
i see the appeal and found some ideas interesting but i still hated it

m-muh aliens and real life UFO shit lmao

>fad
>when the anime has been around for over 20 years

>no correlation

With the way you're bitching you should just quit. You can't enjoy Lain since you're a brainlet.

>ITS TOO DEEP FOR YOU
>YOU DON'T GET IT BRAINLET

what is there to get?

That is how japs actually look.

>ITS TOO DEEP FOR YOU

*IT'S TOO DEEP FOR YOU

>what is there to get
You just dont seem to understand

the art style is actually the main reason i like serial experiments lain
on that note, does anyone know of any animes or mangos with a similar art style?

The designer is Yoshitoshi Abe so anything by him

What are you talking about? the art is great.

Anyway, the problem with any of these 'deep' anime is that the Japanese have a habit of mistaking symbolism for depth.

That most definitely doesn't apply to Lain

I didn't "get" Lain. The art was great and I really liked how they purposefully wouldn't use background music to make scenes creepier, but I just did not understand the story.

God I hate this stupid anti-intellectual trend . It's not even a matter of so called deep anime being "deep" it's more so than there exist literal brainlets like you that are too lazy to apply themselves . I'm sure you just started Lain to shitpost about it because it's popular enough by now for you to have known what you were getting into. 2deep4u is an actual reality.

The reason is because autistic fans assume that if someone simply didn't enjoy the anime, it's because they must be brainlets who aren't smart enough to appreciate it. It's literally Rick and Morty-tier autism, and just like Rick and Morty, a counter movement dedicated to hating it will inevitably pop up.

Except the posters literally admit to not understanding and cope by claiming the work to be nonsense.

If it's too deep and complicated for your peeny fragile brain of yours I suggest you stop watching
all anime together.

Cuck

But literally ANY criticism of Lain or Eva or any of the similar "deep" shows is immediately responded to with "you're just not intelligent enough lmao."

Because those criticisms are often "I don't get the plot. Why does this show suck?"

the EVA ending was nothing deep. The creator just didn't have enough time to make a good ending so he just threw a bunch of shit together

I promise you I got the plot, I just thought it was boring. But every time I say that I didn't like Lain, I'm just told that I'm not smart enough to appreciate it.

I completely agree. Anno is a moron and got SUPER fucking lucky with Eva.

What did you not like about Lain?

To be fair to Lain, it's more my own fault than the show's fault. I like psychological thrillers and I was told that Lain was a psychological thriller, but it turned out that it was all psychological and no thrill. I just had the wrong expectations.

you obviously didn't get it you damn brainlet, stick to western "toons" which are more your speed, Lain has serious undertones and very sophisticated sequences that dumb subhumans would never truly appreciate at the same level as a well versed, intelligent fan

end yourself and have sex

Fair enough.

kill yourself nigger

Quit life. With a gun.

It worked for Lain in the game.

>Me no understand!
Kill your brain.

>plot

>horrible drawn
>posts obviously beautiful drawing
try harder faggot

I don't care if Lain (Lein) has a deep and philosophical plot.
It's a fucking bore-fest and the characters just stare at each other for hours on end.
You could probably condense the entire series into a short story, and I'd read it then.

So its not worth the time? Its just so slow paced and like you stated, the characters just autistically stare at each other for entire scenes worth of time.

>its not worth the time

no chad would ever browse Yea Forums
real chads browse [s4s] and posts doremi all day

then lain is not your cup of coffee

>NieA_7
>Similar to Lain

have you ever read a book before?

Read user's post again, he asked for a similar art style

it is slow, but if you enjoy thought-provoking entertainment it's worth the ride. every good story needs a beginning, and lain has a beginning, a middle, and an end.

Manga books?

This.

Keep watching nogger

Christ, it's painful how much of a newfag you are. I bet you found this place last week and heard that saying "nigger" and "chad" in arbitrary places makes you a Cool Kid. Would also explain why you can't into something like Lain. Please, kill yourself.

I love lain. let's all love lain.

It really is. The themes addressed aren't even that profound

Imagine thinking Lain is incredibly profound and philosophically insightful and then calling others stupid

Even if it was just thrown together, it was deep, it was a good closure to Shinji's character evolution.

>calling yourself a chad
You probably think that "chad" is just a synonym for cool guy. Fuck off back to facebook.

>it was all psychological and no thrill
Begins with a suicide for unknown reasons, it seems Lain is under surveillance the whole tome, something wrong with the family and friends, 180 degrees personality changes, meeting the big bad of the internet, etc...
Yeah sure, it's not a thriller.

I hope this pleases her
