In 2005, Newtype USA stated that the main attraction to the series is its keen view on "the interlocking problems of identity and technology". It was praised by the Jepan Media Arts Festival, in 1998, for "its willingness to question the meaning of contemporary life" and the "extraordinarily philosophical and deep questions". Despite the show judged atypical, the critics responded positively to the thematic and stylistic characteristics. Words like "weird" or "bizarre" are almost systematically associated to review the series by English Language reviews due mostly to the freedoms taken with the animation and its unusual science fiction, philosophical and psychological context.

In 2009, Yoshitoshi ABe announced a spiritual sequel to Serial Experiments Lain called Despera who will reunited many of the staff who worked on Serial Experiments Lain, including Chiaki J Konaka and Ryūtarō Nakamura. Ueda and Konaka declared in an interview that the idea of a multimedia project was not unusual in Japan, as opposed to the contents of Lain, and the way they are exposed. A dōjinshi titled "The Nightmare of Fabrication" was produced by Yoshitoshi ABe and released in Japanese in the artbook Omnipresence in the Wired. The scenario for the video game was written first, and the video game was produced at the same time as the anime series, though the series was released first. Producer Yasuyuki Ueda said in an interview, "the approach I took for this project was to communicate the essence of the work by the total sum of many media products". The Lain franchise was originally conceived to connect across forms of media (anime, video games, manga). Later, when he discovered that the American audience held the same views on the series as the Japanese, he was disappointed. This would lead to a "war of ideas" over the meaning of the anime, hopefully culminating in new communication between the two cultures. He explained he created Lain with a set of values he took as distinctly Japanese he hoped Americans would not understand the series as the Japanese would. From then on, Lain is bound to a path which will take her ever deeper into both the network and her own subconscious thoughts and sensations.Serial Experiments Lain was conceived, as a series, to be original to the point of it being considered "an enormous risk" by its producer Yasuyuki Ueda.
When Lain receives the message at home, Chisa tells her that she is not dead, but has merely "abandoned her physical body and flesh", and is alive deep within the virtual reality-world of the Wired itself and that she has found the almighty and divine god there. The first ripple on the pond of Lain's lonely life appears when she learns that girls from her school have received an e-mail from Chisa Yomoda, a schoolmate who had committed suicide. Lain lives with her middle-class family, which consists of her inexpressive older sister Mika, her cold mother, and her computer-obsessed father. The series focuses on Lain Iwakura, an adolescent girl living in suburban Japan, and her introduction to the Wired, a global communications network similar to the Internet. Lain is an avant-garde anime influenced by philosophical subjects such as reality, identity, and communication.
A PlayStation game with the same title was released in November 1998 by Pioneer LDC.
