Synopsis

Rumors are flying around school and on the Wired with regards to numerous senior students of various high schools committing suicide, with each of the deceased being addicted to the online action game called PHANTOMa. Interested, Lain investigates only to discover that this game was glitched with a tag game for kids, in which a little girl scares the students to their deaths. Moreover, she finds out that the deaths were most likely caused by the elite secretive hacker group known as the Knights of the Eastern Calculus. Later at night, she senses the Men in Black, who were spying on her in the black car. When she tells the two to go away, a sound wave penetrates through her window, causing the two to fall back and drive away.
