after watching this yesterday, ive been doing some thinking about this show
i read some explanations and while it might be too early to say something about it, i came to a conclusion that the anime is completely pointless

if i didnt watch it, my life would be completely the same, i didnt give me anything
sure i watch a lot of "pointless" shows but the thing is they dont try to have some point, they are just fun
but what was lain??
was it trying to convey some deep thoughts?
probably yes

i guess we need to take in consideration that the anime was made in 1998 and shit was different back then, yet you have shows that dont "age" and can be considered master pieces that apply to todays age

did i enjoy the anime?
yes, it was something different for once since i mostly watch moeshit but its not something i would want to see again
the visuals were pretty cool, the opening song was really good

the plot is what it is, im not gonna talk about it here since if you saw it, you know, and if you didnt, you have to go see it for yourself

is this the worst anime review you ever read?
it might be

over all i give lain 8/10 but it definitely is not some intellectual master piece like some people believe it to be
