Removed from main page, as there is a cleanup effort on GIFT underway and I am not sure what to do with this entry:

  • GIFT: Multiple times in the Wired. Most of these people can only form eyes, ears, and mouths, and one was given the nickname "Cheshire Cat" by Lain.

Anywhere that I can find this series? Internet, stores, anywhere?

For the United States, the best option at this point is a store that sells used DVDs; Lain has been out-of-print for about four years now, though it has been relicensed by Funimation and might be re-released in the near future.

Just a heads' up: Funimation did indeed give it a very nice re-release, with a DVD/Blu-Ray bundle and included (quite extensive) art book that also has commentary. So if you want to own a physical copy it shouldn't be too hard to find any more.

Voice actors shouldn't be listed as tropes, but this still may be worth noting:

  • Kaori Shimizu: Her debut role as Lain. Which may also affect her being a Kuudere.
    • She also contributed her body parts to the live action "Devices" segment at the end of each show.

Gotta say, this is probably amongst the best intros I've seen for a TVT page. Well done.

I was wondering. Is the "present day, present time" in the dub only? It's just I've seen two version of it - one with japanese writing and one with roman letters, so...

If you mean the voice, it is the same in the original.(Creepy as hell though.) However, if you mean the writing, I can't help you.
