Serial Experiments Lain
Taro is a kid that Lain meets at Cyberia who knows quite a bit about the Wired and computer technology. He has seen both "Lain in the Wired" and Iwakura Lain and believes that they are two sides of the same person (he's wrong, they are not). He is Myu-Myu's boyfriend (they both look rather young, which makes it all a bit odd to think about), who hangs out with him at Cyberia.
Spoiler Alert!
Taro is an otaku and is also associated with Knights, though not a full member as he tells Lain later on. Since he is not a full member, he does not suffer the same flaw as the Knights do: he does not fully believe in Deus's godhood and thus he does not fully allow Eiri to manipulate him into doing his bidding.
