'''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 of the Eastern Calculus]].

	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.

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.
