I personally think it was a 10 out of 10 because the animation, the character development, and even the sound tracks where perfect. My only issue what that for most people it's hard to under like what's going on most of the time but that's what makes the shoe so good. And also i just the funny nature of the show in general

I also scored it 10/10, it was a great short story and the music was awesome (the Pillows i think they're called).

The guy who made Airbender told his staff to watch it for influence/inspiration and that's rad.

Also, the pillows kick so much ass.

I dont think my opinion is valid since I haven't finished it, I dropped it after seeing 2 eps. It was just too bad. Comedy was cringe and it was boring but animation and sounds were absolutely amazing.

I don't know what to think, it was one of the craziest anime I've ever seen, a nice experience.
If you're a fanboy, please don't waste my time.

yeah, it was an enjoyable anime, because of Mamimi I smoke my cigs only after I write on them "never knows best". The ending of the show was good too, strong 8/10 in my opinion, I had a great experience while watching it

I'm not really a fan of "random things happen because they happen" type of anime and I also disliked the humor, so i dropped it during the 1st episode.

FLCL is awesome--visually dazzling, fantastic music, endearing characters, and filled to the brim with thematic goodness. It's a classic for a reason.

It's not the best anime ever, but it's clearly a solid anime. People who think otherwise are wrong.

Basically, it made absolutely no sense to me a all. I don't if crazy things like this are what people enjoy, but I'm definitely not one of those people. There was never any explanation, the comedy wasn't funny and after watching 2 episodes I failed to find anything that I liked about the show. I don't want to offend anyone who likes it so I'm not going to say it was bad. It just wasn't my thing, no good for me at all. If you really did like this show I would be interested to hear what made you like it so I can get a different perspective on it.

What? The show is blatantly obvious with its theme and spells it out for you every few minutes. It's about growing up. Naota is surrounded by adults that seem childish because they don't conform to his idea of adulthood, and pursues an unhealthy vision of what maturity is. Then Haruko shows up and, over the course of the series, shows Naota that being an adult is less about putting on airs of maturity and more about being honest with yourself and taking responsibility for your actions.

It's the easiest show in the world to interpret, because it's slipping the answers onto your test after assigning it to you.

I really didn't like it. I didn't like any of the characters especially Haruko I thought she was super annoying. I didn't find the show funny at all. The deeper themes from the show that everyone talks about I also think are kinda BS.

I did like the second one to an extent. Main girl was a nice counterpoint of the original MC, having grown too fast and not wanting to become an adult.

Third one was bottom tier. I remember the MC being an annoyingly shallow genki girl with no redeeming features or relevance to what the first show was trying to say.

Usually I like animes like this, a show with depth, crazy animation and good music is what fooly cooly is described as. But honestly I thought FLCL was terrible. Maybe I was having a bad week when I watched it but I remember walking away from it feeling it was one of the worst animes I've ever seen. Maybe I'll have to give it a rewatch one of these days.

It was ok. I didn’t really enjoy it. I had high expectations and it disappointed me. The comedy wasn’t for me. The soundtrack was amazing though.

Between Progressive and Alternative, i can't really choose which one is worse. Progressive had some weird visuals and pretty good soundtrack, but the story was so boring and i dislike the characters there.

Meanwhile, Alternative had better story than Progressive. But it lost its weirdness in visual and the soundtrack was average.

I found it to be enjoyable but found it to be hard to understand sometimes. There was probably a ton of metaphors I did not get and plan on rewatching it, despite all that it was really fun I guess? And who could forget the BANGER ost.

Watched it once and gave it a 9/10. But it's a show I definitely wanna rewatch. The music banged. Not the biggest fan of Haruko, but I loved everyone else. And the last episode was especially good.

Uh...it's okay I guess, not really my kind of humor and the story is all over the place. I like it mostly because it's basically an extended music video for The Pillows which has some decent rock music. Also Gainax and Trigger by extension ruin all that they touch as a general rule. Haven't bothered with the sequels.

I didnt know anything about the show. And I though it was way too overrated because it didnt seem that interesting, but as soon as i watched, i feel in love with it. So just give it a try and if you dont like then you just dont like it
