I honestly do not get how anyone can like this. It seems like for some reason we put ourselves under some sort of obligation to like artsy fartsy crap. Oh well, I guess it is all a matter of personal opinion so here is mine.
I sat down with my family to watch Lain and before the FIRST episode finished we took it out because we didn't want an early nap. I seriously don't care about what this anime was about or what type of self discovery about life I'm supposed to gain from watching this.It's BORING! I barely kept my eyes open to even pay attention to this crap.
