History Awesome / SerialExperimentsLain

* Crosses over with NarmCharm, but Morizumi Ali's delivery of the 'Present day! ...heh, *present time*! HAHAHAHA-!' quip before the shoegazey opening theme has became one of the series's calling cards.

* First, when Lain unflinchingly approaches the gun-weaving stoner in the club, and tells him "No matter where you are, we're all connected". The guy then turns his gun around, shoots himself, and Lain gets all splattered in his blood. Massive awesomeness for a quiet 15-year-old little girl, and sets the grim, disturbing tone of the rest of the series.

* Then, at the very end of the series, [[spoiler:Lain tells "God" that he's just a sicko scientist who thinks he's the best just because he uploaded his mind into the Wired. Then he ''materializes himself into Lain's bedroom with Alice next to her.'' Lain then holds Alice real tight, and ''telekinetically'' throws him all the stuff piled in her bedroom, effectively killing him for good]].
* Lain's [[BerserkButton Berserk Button]] gives her telekinetic powers. [[spoiler:She ''melts a building'' out of ''pure despair.'' A guy almost got his face taken off for staring into her bedroom. A god upset Lain's best friend once. ''Once.'']]

*** How is that awesome? This troper found that to be the creepiest thing to that point! She up and murdered someone, after apparently using him to murder someone else, and didn't even seem to be aware she was doing it!
**** Because of CreepyAwesome.
*** Because she practically saved everyone in the club by doing so.

* Then, at the very end of the series, [[spoiler:Lain tells "God" that he's just a sicko scientist who thinks he's the best just because he uploaded his mind into the [[strike:Interwebs]] Wired. Then he ''materializes himself into Lain's bedroom with Arisu next to her.'' Lain then holds Arisu real tight, and ''telekinetically'' throws him all the stuff piled in her bedroom, pwnzing him forever and ever]].
