nah. i mean, lain is gay and spends a lot of her time at the club considering she's 12, but the song is just "it would be a kinda funny date night for a straight couple to go to a gay bar"
if you pay attention it's really clear she's in love with her classmate alice (i mean she says "alice i love you" which isn't exactly subtle). i mean, she's not necessarily gay, she could be some other type of queer, but close enough
In my defense I was school kid who just read books that were about friendship taking romantic overtones. You right though. In hindsight totally missed that
i watched lain in like a fugue state. i was basically hypnotized, and i just kinda accepted everything that happened. the aliens were the one thing that really shocked me out of that
Awesome vid!
Why does the vocalist want to take her to a gay bar though?
i think it's a joke song based on a misheard lyric in another song
Oh, that’s cool too but I was hoping there was lore. Thanks for explaining

I need to rewatch the show, I missed that the first time (don’t make fun, i was a literal child).

yeah i mean, it makes sense that if you watched it when you were a kid you'd miss it. i probably would have too!
If you don't mind, are there any other things you would consider pointing out to somebody watching seriously for he first time?
i've only seen it once, so i'm not an expert, but i'd say just watch it and don't try to solve it. just kind of experience it
To start a nuclear war, duh
to spend all her money
actually remember the bit in lain where the actual gray alien shows up and it's never mentioned again?
Granted, that's when things start going really off the rails lol.
