I agree Lain was an odd choice.

For a more recent exploration of it, ReLIFE is interesting. The main character is a former salaryman-turned-freeter, not a hikikomori, but the "experiment" is for helping NEETs, and one of their other subjects is implied to have been a hikikomori.

For anyone interested, you can watch it for free, legally, here: http://www.crunchyroll.com/relife (you can read it too but that needs a subscription, oddly).
