'''Nezumi''' is a man who only appears on [[Layer 07]]. He wanders the streets in full web-browsing gear and desperately wants to join the [[Knights]]. He is seen dead at the end of the episode.

Nezumi's name ("mouse") is evidently inspired by the dormouse from Lewis Carroll's ''Alice's Adventures in Wonderland''.

Nezumi most likely serves the function of illustrating how the [[Wired]] and organisations like the Knights can affect people. He tries to merge the Wired with [[reality]] through his equipment, imitating people like [[Lain]] who can access the Wired device-less because of the [[Psyche]] chip. However, this method not only works very poorly but also causes him to lose touch with reality.

His death can be interpreted in many ways. Perhaps it was an accident brought on by his focus on the Wired while wandering in the real world. Perhaps the Knights assassinated him because he found their communication channels. Perhaps he ended up [[suicide|abandoning the flesh]] to be able to access the Wired more perfectly.

* Konaka walked around [[Shibuya]] with a DVCam and processed the film on his Macintosh, adding HSB noise. He made a total of 3 minutes of footage for Layer 07, taking 1 month to complete it. At least one cut involved cels, which Konaka also digitally processed himself, overlaying the cel imagery with the live-action footage on his Macintosh.
