An edited cel from the anime Serial Experiments Lain, featuring Lain Iwakura looking slightly past the camera to the right. Her hair, clothes, and eyes have been made transparent, and the source code of the Serial Experments Lain Wikipedia page is showing through.
A bit of Lain fan art I made today

Lain Iwakura wearing a simple white dress, adorned with a golden halo on top of her head and off-white angel wings on her back. This is a "garage kit" figure, AKA fan-made. It was sold on the Chinese shopping website Xianyu by a fan of Lain.

OMG sorry, I just saw this! I don't, but I should make one - that sounds like fun! If you're still interested I'd be happy to reach out after I've finished one π
A number of miscellaneous Serial Experiments Lain DVDs laid out in a repeating pattern on a white background.

A fun fact about this DVD: The disc's matrix readout actually says "LPR-309", the title of the disc! This is pretty unique for Lain releases - most have generic matrix readouts.
This promotional DVD was included in the Serial Experiments Lain Resurrection box set (PIBA-1169). I've uploaded my scans of this set to the internet archive, please enjoy!

A close-up of Lain Iwakura's face on the hand-painted shikishi, showing the impressive detail and fine line work.
It was a hand-painted commission from last year, and I absolutely love how it came out

A photo of an animation cel from Serial Experiments Lain. This cel contains spoilers from the end of the show, be warned. It features Lain as the alien peeking into her room, and was priced at $799.99 USD. It is affixed to the wall with a binder clip, somewhat crazy for such an expensive cel.
A photo I took back in 2018 at an anime convention - this Lain cel was being sold for $800 USD. At the time, I thought it was insanely expensive... these days, it seems like a pretty good deal.
This figure is absolutely incredible - finally, a detailed, inexpensive, and modern Lain figure!
