So it's kinda funny how watching this anime and finishing it has been a long process...
To preface: I knew the intro by Bôa way before knowing what this anime was, and I bonded with a very special person in my life about the intro, which was how I was introduced to the anime. :')
Now to talk about the last episode.. I thought the ending was amazing and I really like how Lain erasing herself from everyone's memories wrapped up the whole anime. I think that it also tied into the butterfly effect- where every action has a consequence. Even though the anime isn't based on
...
time travel (where the butterfly effect is mostly used in animes/shows/movies), I think Lain reversing her actions and erasing herself was like a time travel in a way, which I found really fascinating.
I wish her and Arisu could've stayed friends :(
I've seen a bunch of talk about if lain was a good person or bad and I think she genuinely was a good person who just made mistakes like the rest of the world- which is also kinda funny considering she wasn't suppose to be "real" just a body. But, I think when Lain tried to fix everything for Arisu and then realized her mistakes, erasing herself was how she fixed that. It felt like an act of selflessness in my opinion.
I loved this anime so much and I had to give it a 10/10 especially for all the way it can be interpreted!!
I <3 Lain :D
