Layer:06 Kids
Summary (spoilers)
Across town, children gaze upward and reach toward an enormous image of Lain hovering in the clouds. Searching for the cause, Lain learns about an abandoned research project that tried to link the minds of children, and meets the scientist who still regrets it. She then turns to face the people who revived that work.
