Lain... GR is right, Lazy wrong. Now, lots of anime is indeed similar... there's lots of stuff out there that doesn't exactly try new ideas. But Lain is one of the most unique, and best, animes ever... it's utterly unlike anything else out there, and is great because of it. It doesn't have characters with flourescent hair, lots of violence, characters with no depth or character development (Lain especially changes a lot), etc, etc... it doesn't follow the "rules" of anime story or artwork (all of the light/dark contrast shots, the pacing, everything... it's so different from what you expect anime to be like...)

One more thing, I seriously doubt a child could understand what Serial Experiments Lain is really about.

This is absolutely correct, it's a very complex show...
