Customer Reviews of FLCL (Fooly Cooly) - Vol. 2
Nu-anime at its worst. Why do I call this nu-anime? Because its like nu-metal, its watered down anime made extremely stupid and annoying to appeal to the masses, just like nu-metal. FLCL is overrated by a bunch of fat, zit-faced goth girls in high school who can't get laid, listen to nu-metal, play DDR, hate American cartoons for no good reason, and think Hayao Miyazaki is god. Male FLCL fans are pretty much the same but 100 pounds lighter. FLCL belongs in the "nu-anime" category, along with InuYasha, the Boondocks, Samurai Deeper Kyo, and the various anime s*** thats aired on Adult Swim. <

>Back to the show, there's nothing special about it, its basically like Excel Saga (at least that show was funny) but extremelly stupid and annoying (like SpongeBob). You basically have this retarted alien girl who hits everything with a guitar and can't play it for s***, she "spices" up the lives of everyone in the town it takes place in. The rest of it is a bunch of retarted pop-culture references mixed with "insane" scenes and a HORRIBLE J-pop soundtrack, yet there's legions of fickle Americans who think this is genious. <

WHAT IS THIS COMING OUT OF MY HEAD?
I have to admit that I was a little dumbfounded after watching Volume 1 of FLCL and was debating on whether or not I should view Volume 2. But there was something about it, just some momentary little flashes of brillance that made me push on to this installment. Volume 2 seems to hold back a little on the insanity, or maybe it just seems that way because I've become adjusted to the surreal and crazy format. Anyway, the first of the two episodes on this disk concerns Ninamori, a classmate of Naota, who on the surface, seems to have it all. She's popular, rich, and her dad is the mayor! But beneath it all, her family is breaking up because of her cheating father and in a shojoesque turn, she's not such a good girl as everyone thinks. But maybe her crush on Naota will help her come out of her shell. Or maybe some horrifying alien coming out of her might do the trick!

>The second episode is a take-off of baseball, with the alien Haruko opposing the former team of Naota's brother. With her pitching, there's no way any human can even get a hit. Maybe if Naota would lower himself to get some coaching on his swing from Haruko, things would change. That's if Naota doesn't take a swing at his bum of a father first. Imagine the nerve of the old pervert massaging Haruko with the stubble of his beard! On top of that, there's a bomb heading straight at the Earth!

>The animation and vivacity of FLCL is just beautiful. It might not make much sense plot-wise, but it's one of the most stimulating anime I have ever seen. The characterization alone is light years beyond what passes for emotion and nuance in other productions. One of the funniest scenes is where a flying Naota, after being ran over by Haruko's Vespa scooter makes a slow motion Matrix bullet time approach to a kiss with Ninamori! The somewhat serious scenes are handled with just as much finesse as the surrealism of the comedy and action. Great experimental show!
FLCL Volumes 1 - 3
This series must get an award for simple originality. None of the characters follow the same anime stereotypes we've come to know as anime fans. The conflict is everchanging but never out of reach. You always know what is going on, in other words. And to add to that, it has a great J-pop soundtrack. If you're tired of those stories about a male Japanese boy surrounded by many beatiful women--and who isn't--this is where to go to regenerate your love for this type of anime.
