Yes . Its why the anime community has been invaded by shitty tourists and is no longer what it once was anymore

How much does Serial Experiments Lain rate these days?
Literally the most popular show among trannies who talk about it constantly. Its not niche or cult anymore in the slightest, to the point that "I can hear the powerlines buzzing!" become such a common line that its now a meme used to mock zoomers larping as 90s kids.
Damn, then I'm screwed, I tend to read more than watch, Is Apartment for rent also consider mainstream?
I'm also almost entirely a reader. The three series I watched this winter to spend time with my wife was the first anime I've seen since Soul Eater was airing, whenever that was.
I don't know about Apartment for Rent, so I can't speak to it. Lain is just a special case because of how adopted it got by trannies and spammed until everyone turned on it.
Was a bit of trick question to be honest, it is Chinese and a webnovel.
The Welcome to the N.H.K is also mainstream right? (and it is not enough weird/deranged tbh)
Far enough away from mainstream to pass inspection I'd say. Still haven't seen that one myself, so I'm unsure of how far into "weird" territory it actually is. My own barometer for weird is still set by stuff like Angel's Egg, Akikan, Majin Tantei Nōgami Neuro(in which a parrot headed demon devours mysteries) and Kamen no Maid Guy.
Any series with the girl as the slapstick loser constantly getting fucked with is a white whale and the most hilarious thing possible.
I need to get back to this one. I read like 7 volumes way back in the day and then fell out of weebery entirely.
Hugely! It really holds up over time.
Also: https://myanimelist.net/anime/387/Haibane_Renmei of course.
Not seen this before, seems interesting, will look into it.
