I've seen D.N.Angel, Serial Experiments Lain, and Vandred. None of them made a really strong impression on me.
I know I missed some episodes in the middle of D.N.Angel (Netflix was missing a DVD, and the library had a different edition with different episodes per DVD). The twin sister love interests are annoying, and the relationships there don't come across convincingly (partly because I'm 40 and they're all 14. I don't believe in True Love Forever starting at 14).
Serial Experiments Lain depressed me, I think. It was pretty head-trippy, too.
I think I watched Vandread while I was pregnant. That means that I was happy with anything that kept me occupied while I was having trouble moving. It had action and wacky humor and weird gender stuff (it starts with two enemy planets, one all men and one all women) going on. I'm not sure if it made sense. I seem to recall that some episodes were better than others.
