Talk:Lain

Lain? As in "Serial Experiments: Lain"? Hmm... could be coincidence. Xaque 18:27, 2 July 2006 (CDT)

Yeah, the name is exactly the same (without the Iwakura surname though). Adding as trivia. --80.3.64.13 01:45, 2 January 2007 (CST)

Fyren removed the Trivia as part of an anti-Anime crusade on the basis that "maybe it is just a coincidence." By that logic, all easter eggs and trivia entries could just be coincidences, but that doesn't mean we should delete them all. It doesn't seem like a good enough reason, so I'm restoring the note with better wording.--Ninjatek 09:07, 13 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Just like Ryoko, Lain ("rein" in romaji) is a normal Japanese name. If there's no other connection, it gets the axe.  --Fyren 09:14, 13 June 2007 (CDT)
 * Says who? You?  You presented your argument on the Ryoko page, and I presented mine.  Let's get some other opinions and consider GW:1RV before we make further changes.--Ninjatek 09:16, 13 June 2007 (CDT)
 * I agree with Fyren. We wouldn't consider an NPC named "Fred" a reference to Scooby Doo, unless there was a stronger connection (Named Fred Jones, being involved in a quest with three other humans and a dog, et cetera). It's just a common name. --Valentein 09:21, 13 June 2007 (CDT)
