School

The school that Lain attends along with her classmates Alice, Reika and Juri has no name in any of the works. Alice's teacher and Lain's teacher work here.

According to Visual Experiments Lain, it's called Ouka Private Girls' Academy (私立鷗華女子学園, shiritsu ouka joshi gakuen). It contains a middle school, high school, and college all on the same campus.

Description

The school buildings are mostly white. There is a main gate all the students enter through, beside which there is a bust of a man (unidentified, presumably the school founder). To the right of the entrance is a booth where the security guard sits. A circular, decorative fountain lies in the school's courtyard.

In the classrooms, students are seated at simple individual desks facing the blackboard at the front of the classroom. There are large windows lining the outside wall and the wall facing the corridor.

Uniform

The components of the school's uniform are as follows:

• white blouse
• red, ribbon-like bow tie
• gray blazer with school crest on the left breast
• green plaid pleated skirt

As it is a Japanese school, students change into white slippers when entering the building. The school crest is not depicted clearly or consistently, but most of the time it appears to be a red shield, bordered in white and again narrowly in blue, with a bird in its center (the central figure appears as an indistinguishable blob most of the time, but it's probably a gull). The upperclasswomen's uniforms appear to be slightly different; for example, Mika's blazer has white piping on its lapel.
