Let me start this review by saying FLCL, is not for everyone, FLCL is made as an interpretable piece of art, some would call it a fever dream while others make sense of it as best as they can.

PLOT 8.5/10
Starting out with the Plot. FLCL is confusing to say the least, when it comes to the plot of show it takes more of a back seat to show of the characters. Now while saying this that doesn't mean that FLCL's plot is bad in anyway its actually quite entertaining but at the end of the day the characters are what make it good.

ART 10/10
Its ... not often that you find an anime with such a unique style such as FLCL, it combines an amazing artistic team with animation ahead of its time, with a blend of extremely unique scenes and great camera work.

SOUND 10/10
Anime often leaves me wanting more when it comes to sound, with a few stand out exceptions. But FLCL left me beyond satisfied with a soundtrack composed by the pillows that is still to this day filled to the brim with amazing songs I still regularly play.

CHARACTERS 10/10
No matter how you interpret the story of FLCL, the characters are simply amazing with the main character Naota wanting to grow up as fast as possible but unsure of what he wants in life. Mamimi afraid to grow up trying as hard as possible to hold onto what she had while she was younger. And Haruko the perfect characterization of living each moment as if it could be your last, and not giving into society's pressures unlike the other 2 characters.

ENJOYMENT 10/10
I watched FLCL when I was much younger, I'm pretty sure at the time I watched it was in 5th grade, all though I didn't understand the story at all back then, it was still incredibly enjoyable. With an amazing sound track and unique visuals it will keep you watching.

OVERALL 10/10
FLCL is one of those timeless masterpieces, that you can watch once a year and realize new things each time you watch it. While still enjoying what you loved the first time you saw it. I would recommend this anime to anyone really, if your a fan of music you'll love it, if your a fan of amazing character they've got it, if your a fan of interesting and unique visuals FLCL has it for you. FLCL has a little bit of everything so I say if you have nothing to do and your free 2 hours give it a try.
