The US government debunked these claims, saying that the “UFO” was nothing more than a weather balloon, but conspiracy theorists still insist that not all was as it appeared from Roswell. The incident was left alone for many years until interest erupted in the 70’s and books were written, interviews were done, and claims of “alien corpses” were rampant. Debris from a “flying saucer” was noticed by a foreman. In 1947 remains of what appeared to be a UFO were discovered on a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico. The Roswell incident is referred to specifically near the beginning of episode 9 as a jumping off point for describing some other aspects of the show.įor those who don’t know, the UFO incident is quite possibly the most famous alien incident in the USA. One of the most stand out features about Lain is the aliens they at first seem random and almost out of place within the show.
There will be no particular order as giving a timeline to the show and how it presents the ideas is rather difficult (some aren’t named directly in the show and some are only briefly mentioned although they have great importance). So without further ado let’s start to look at these things. This article can be seen as one of the more “info dump” heavy pieces a lot of this will be focused on episode 9 which is a very heavy info dump episode. Now unfortunately I can’t cover all these areas in 100% detail because there are so many that the article would be tens of thousands of words long if I did but I will try and give brief explanations of who the people were, what the technology was, and/or what influence it had on the show (or my own interpretation of what it was).
This time, instead of offering a completely open interpretation into the world of Lain I have decided to look at some of the more focused areas of the show, namely some of the larger influences that inspired some themes and ideas within the show. I’ve been thinking about this article for a while and have put it off for too long already. Time for another Lain article, since I haven’t had much other inspiration for writing at the moment.
