I watched this twice on [adult swim] and all I can say is......wow. Its so complex yet laid back in its own way, it really blew my mind, too bad its only 6 episodes long.

I liked it, especially the Pirate King. ;P

I understood it the second time through. I didn't know it was a OAV, or whatever you call it, the first time through.

I've seen it roughly about 5 or six times now, yet it is still funny.

The plot itself is a little difficult to understand, but what I'm still having trouble with is the meaning...does anyone have any idea as far as that goes? >.>

It's kinda hard to describe it. I don't really think it has a big meaning.

FLCL is a break from those serious animes like Full Metal, GITS, etc...

FLCL is anime on crack. Seriously. It made sense to my roomate when he watched it, but he was also drunk at the time, so that was why. I mean, it's amusing to a point, but it doesn't rank up there in my book.

Theres just something about FLCL, something that I don't think can be described....but whatever it is...its pretty cool

An amusing show, but pointless from start to finish. You have desires for the characters, but nothing you expect ever actually takes place. A lot of totally impossible stuff takes place, though, with even more impossible resolutions (i.e. resurrection of a dead corpse by soaking it in water?). O_o

But the bottom line is that it's a fun anime to watch when nothing else is on.

If you didn't 'get' the loose plot, you're too young to read the following.
Naota: A boy wrestling with puberty and various mental issues. He both worships and hates his older brother. Big bro is better at sports and a star with the chicks as well, including Mamimi who big bro throws over for an American girlfriend which pisses Naota off, makes him feel bad for Mamimi and thus he sort of takes his bro's place in her life. Being his brothers second in both baseball and w/ chicks makes him a pretty bitter bastard. He struggles to come out from beneath his brother’s shadow.

Enter Haruko, the older woman. From a psychosexual point of view older women are more alluring to younger men (particularly virgins) because they are more ‘experienced’. Thus if Naota could get w/ Haruko he would supercede his bro (and his dad) in the chick department. Haruko is the ying looking for her yang. Her bitter enemy is also the one she is in love with because they are opposites and because he has such great power. Haruko swings her guitar quite well implying she’s swung the bat before, i.e. she is experienced.

The thing is Naota doesn’t ‘swing the bat’ a gentle euphemism for having sex. He fools around with Mamimi, but they aren’t bumping uglies and he cuts baseball practice to hang with her. His bat/guitar is another euphemism for his package; this is why we see the chicks in the control room w/ nosebleeds when Naota has to take a swing at the satellite speeding toward the city.

Eventually he does knock the satellite out of the park. He finds his (sexual)confidence, even yelling at Mamimi not to call him Takun (a playful yet juvenile nickname) anymore.

yeah, Haruko Haruhara (the girl that can pull the guitar from Naota's head) is crazy! She's always trying to fool around with Naota's dad. It is sad it's only 6 episodes.
