Ok, brief Silence and then a rock n' roll entrance... these are signs that bizzare anime, named "Fooly Cooly" for reasons unknown, is about to be viewed. (Either by video or TV)
Now, I being an anime addict, had to check this out. From the moment I first saw It I was hooked. Ok, so what's the plot you may ask? Well, it's about a 12-year-old boy named, Naota. Yeah? So? Ok one day... he gets hit by a Vespa Scooter. Now, the woman that hit him claims to be an alien(still with me?), an Alien police officer who also claims to be a rock star. Now, after being hit, Naoto starts getting strange bumps on his head. Now be prepared for something really odd. 3,2,1! Those bumps get so large, that robots start popping out!(HUH!?)There is also an alternate plot going on at the same time, Naoto's older brother's girlfriend was starting to take a liking to our main character, and it goes on from there.
Ok, strange... strange... strange...
Now you are probably asking, "Why should I watch this trash?", the answer my friend is about to be spoken.
The animation is wonderful, the characters are well drawn. What else? Good music, great after a long hard day at work or school. Yeah, what else? It's just addicting... Rent it, watch it, buy it, Love it.
That concludes my review of this, somewhat strange, heck VERY STRANGE ANIME! Thank you!

FLCL FANATIC | 07-07-2005 17:19 [E-Mail,Site] | This is one of the best shows ever created! The animation was great, the voice overs were great, the manga scene in episode 6 was disturbing, but great, pretty much every thing about this anime are great!(except for there being only 6 episodes!) | Komi | 07-03-2005 02:55 [E-Mail,Site] | Well, after reading some comments, I have a few of my own to make.
It is the 1st on my anime list, and whoever read the original manga will understand the story a bit better, or get more confuzed. But first, to all of you who love Haruko-San, she's a bitch for playing around with Naota-Kun's feelings. And I actually have the box set, so I really do know what I'm talking about here.
One thing I found wierd (but not at all Shocking) was that the creators re-did the ending from the original manga ending just because the pillows music inspired the people at Gainax to Make it into a big final'e. Also, I would like to clear up on what furi-kuri means. from what I've found out it's a Japanese slang for Breast Gropeing, since Kuri is homonym for a twisting noise, but I haven't found out what exactly furi means yet. Another think is that both Haruko's Rickenbacker Bass, and Atmosk's 1961 Gibson EB-0 are actual models still in production, if you have doubts you can goto both the Rickenbacker and Gibson sites, or search around on Google.
I found it a bit depressing that there were only 6 episodes, and the actual sequence of events probably escelated even further, mabey Naota becomes part of the space police brotherhood? mabey I should write a fanfic on how Haruko met Atmosk.
Another small part that I found was a crime they diddn't put in was how in the manga, Mamimi used N.O. to pull Naota's brother Tasku-Senpai through to help. (even though you don't notice it at the first read)Tasku-senpai actually did help naota-kun in a way when he had to hit the satellite bomb back into space, Noata-kun cried "TASKU!" right when he was about to hit the bomb, then the red symbol appeared on his head and he stopped the bomb.
Anyways, great series, I wish they would do more episodes, but not call it FLCL, call it "Chi-chi 0 Kuri-kuri" or something perverted like that.
P.S. the original story is by Gainax. The manga art was done by Hajime Euda.
And here are all the animators (genga-men) who worked on the series:
Shinji Otsuka, Takurou Takahashi, Kazuhiro Takamura, Hisao Ishizaki, Shinji Suetomi, Kenichi Yamaguchi, Yuusuke Yoshikaki, Keiko Shimizu, Hiroyuki Imaishi, Takayuki Gorai, Toshinobu Kikuchi, Tetsuya Nishio, Yo Yoshinari.
