Lain has neither the desire nor the experience to handle even basic technology; yet, when the technophobe opens the email, it leads her straight into the Wired, a virtual world of communication networks similar to what we know as the internet. Lain's life is turned upside down as she begins to encounter cryptic mysteries one after another. Strange men called the Men in Black begin to appear wherever she goes, asking her questions and somehow knowing more about her than even she herself knows. With the boundaries between reality and cyberspace rapidly blurring, Lain is plunged into more surreal and bizarre events where identity, consciousness, and perception are concepts that take on new meanings. Written by Chiaki J. Konaka, whose other works include Texhnolyze, Serial Experiments Lain is a psychological avant-garde mystery series that follows Lain as she makes crucial choices that will affect both the real world and the Wired. In closing one world and opening another, only Lain will realize the significance of their presence. ### List of translations: English Dubbed by Geneon Entertainment [License] Перевод: Профессиональный (полное дублирование) XL Media [Лицензия] Перевод: Авторский одноголосый закадровый Дмитрий 'Mokona' Толмачов Переклад: Двоголосий закадровий by [Gwean & Maslinka] мова: Українська | UKR FANDUB List Subs: Arabic (Full), Belarusian (Full) , Brazilian (Full), Bulgarian (Full), English (Full), French (Full), German (Full), Indonesian (Full), Italian (Full), Latin (Full), Polish (Full), Portuguese (Full), Russian (2x ver Full /Songs), Serbian (Full), Spanish (Full), Turkish (Full), Ukrainian (Full / Songs Forsed) ### File Codec: x264 [8 bits] | JPN Transfer Video: 1520x1080 (1.407), 23.976 fps, 9 642 kb/s (0.245 bit/pixel) Audio: FLAC, 48.0 kHz, 2 ch, 528 kb/s, VBR |  | Original by Triangle Staff ### Separate Audio #1 : FLAC, 48.0 kHz, 2 ch, 590 Kbps |  | Official Dub by Geneon Entertainment Audio #1 : AC3, 5.1, 48 KHz, 448 Kbps |  | Official Dub by XL Media [License] Audio #2 : AC3, 2.0, 48 KHz, 192 Kbps |  | FANDUB by Дмитрий 'Mokona' Толмачов Audio #1 : AAC, 2.0, 48 KHz, 320 Kbps |  | FANDUB by Gwean & Maslinka ### Screens     ### Notes This release was able to materialize thanks to the financial support of the user under the nickname Anoobis thx you Encoder by Deadmauvlad PC Power by Encoding server Anoobis and Deadmauvlad PC I associate this release as a multinational (International Release), I ask you to support it in the form of seeding This release is exclusively intended as an acquaintance !
