Her dialogue with different versions of herself shows how she feels shunned from the material world, and how she is afraid to live in the Wired, where she has the possibilities and responsibilities of an almighty goddess. In the end, the viewer sees Lain realizing, after much introspection, that she has absolute control over everyone's mind and over reality itself. In the meantime, the anime follows a complex game of hide-and-seek between the ' Knights of the Eastern Calculus', hackers whom Masami claims are 'believers that enable him to be a God in the Wired', and Tachibana General Laboratories, who try to regain control of Protocol Seven.

The series sees him trying to convince her through interventions, using the promise of unconditional love, romantic seduction and charm, and even, when all else fails, threats and force. Masami later explains that Lain is the artifact by which the wall between the virtual and material worlds is to fall, and that he needs her to go into the Wired and 'abandon the flesh', as he did, to achieve his plan.

These details are unveiled around the middle of the series, but this is the point where the story begins. He then 'uploaded' his own consciousness into the Wired and 'died' a few days after, leaving only his physical self behind.

He had secretly included code of his very own creation to give himself absolute control of the Wired through the wireless system described above. Masami Eiri is introduced as the project director on Protocol Seven (the next-generation Internet protocol in the series' time-frame) for major computer company Tachibana General Laboratories. The increasingly thin invisible line between what is real and what is virtual/digital begins to slowly shatter. If such a link were created, the network would become equivalent to Reality as the general consensus of all perceptions and knowledge. The storyline introduces such a system with the Schumann resonances, a property of the Earth's magnetic field that theoretically allows for unhindered long-distance communications.

The series assumes that the Wired could be linked to a system that enables unconscious communication between people and machines without physical interface. 'The Wired' is a virtual realm that contains and supports the very sum of all human communication and networks, created with the telegraph, televisions, and telephone services, and expanded with the Internet, cyberspace, and subsequent networks. From this point, Lain is caught up in a series of cryptic and surreal events that see her delving deeper into the mystery of the network in a narrative that explores themes of consciousness, perception, and the nature of reality. Lain finds Chisa telling her via email that she is not dead but has merely 'abandoned her physical self' and is alive deep within the virtual realm of the Wired itself, where she claims she has found ' God' there. The status-quo of her life becomes upturned by a series of bizarre incidents that start to take place after she learns that girls from her school have received an e-mail from a dead student, Chisa Yomoda, and she pulls out her old computer in order to check for the same message. Lain Iwakura, a junior high school girl, lives in suburban Japan with her middle-class family, consisting of her inexpressive older sister Mika, her emotionally distant mother, and her computer-obsessed father Lain herself is somewhat awkward, introverted, and socially isolated from most of her school peers. It received the Excellence Prize at the Japan Media Arts Festival in 1998. Critics and fans have praised Lain for its originality, visuals, atmosphere, themes, and its dark depiction of a world fraught with paranoia, social alienation, and reliance on technology considered insightful of 21st century life.

The series incorporates creative influences from computer history, cyberpunk, and conspiracy theory. Lain features surreal and avant-garde imagery and explores philosophical topics such as reality, identity, and communication. The series follows Lain Iwakura, an adolescent girl in suburban Japan, and her relation to the Wired, a global communications network similar to the internet.
