# SERIAL EXPERIMENTS LAIN ### About: "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. 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."[[1]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Experiments_Lain) --- ### Background: I noticed a distinct lack of seeded remuxes of Lain on Nyaa. There's plenty of encodes, and an unseeded remux, but no readily available remux. Because of this, I ended up finding a remux from a Russian release group called "AnimeCeh." This also included the English dub. I also decided to compile the Lain subs from Nipkow's encode into this remux, so that I would have their subtitles in this release, because I like them. I prefer their styling to what was originally within the AnimeCeh remux. This was a personal remux, but I decided to upload it so that others can have a non-encoded copy of Lain. In addition to the 13 episodes of the show, there's also the two OVAs and the NCOPEDs. --- ### Torrent Information: | Track | Type |Source| | ------------- |:-------------:| --------------:| | 0 | Video [JP-BD Remux] | AnimeCeh| | 1 |Audio [Japanese 2.0] | AnimeCeh | | 2 | Audio [English 2.0] | AnimeCeh | | 3 | Subtitles [Stylized Subtitles] | Nipkow | | 4 | Subtitles [Songs/Signs] | Nipkow | | 5 | Subtitles [Storyboard - Right] | AnimeCeh | | 6 | Subtitles [Storyboard - Left] | AnimeCeh | **Mediainfo:** https://pastebin.com/z5Ba3H7H --- ### FAQ: **"Why not these other Lain subs instead?"** I didn't know about them. **"Where is inserttorrenthere that you delayed?"** It's being worked on, and I cannot set definitive dates for those. **"Wtf is this bloat? I can get a 5gb Lain in 2 seconds."** You can, but this is a remux of the JP-BD. The intent is to not compress anything, they're MKVs made from the Blu-Ray, without encoding. This is to keep a high bitrate, keep all the grain, and avoid any quality loss. **"Will you do insertShowHere next?**" I'm working on a lot of things right now, so I probably cannot. --- ### Credits: **Brap** - Directed me to the JP-BD Remux **AnimeCeh** - Did the original JP-BD Remux **Nipkow** - Provided the Stylized subtitles, Signs/Songs subtitles **Ghosty6464** - Muxing, organization, uploading
