I still dont get what these intro scenes are supposed to mean. Maybe Hibajiri is just has fucked up dreams. Blame the headphones?

Wtf is up with that year book. Pretty sure Haruko is just trying to fuck with Hibajiri and brainwash the other students. Still.. wtf

I don't really get Ide.. last episode he was boasting abot sleeping with a teacher, then shy around Hibajiji, now hes working at a junk yard to make ends meet..

I love the guys speaking japense, so gangstar

Whats up with her headphones, seems to hold back the 'Overflow'?

Turns out the space art exhibit Ide wants to take a girl to is actually real - https://tatsuomiyajima.com/work-projects/mega-death-3/

Don't really like how they put the music way in the background. MAKE IT LOUDER DAMMIT

A lot of shit happened in this episode. But mostly what I noticed was the awesome music.

Haven't even watched it yet but I'm confident in saying 10/10 anime of the season.

ITS THE CLIMAX.
Well Its here, I hope everyone made it.

Music - "Another Morning" This song came out in 1992!


I thought there was some reference to the red cube kanti was putting back together in this episode. I guess not.

With the gun episode over, its only the season finally to go!

Naota starts to get a bit full of himself this episode, thinking hes the hero who saved the town. But really I think hes just being used for his head by Haruko. In the end all he ends up being is the ammo for the robots gun.

Who I really feel sorry for is Mamimi, shes going through a lot of shit. Favorite character for sure.

Featured song - "Blues Drive Monster"


Is anyone apart from AdminGG, Silent Sun and I even watching anymore?

So if you haven't heard theres a magic the gathering PC game that is supposed to be actually good.
I played one game and gave up on it, but if you want to give it a go I've got a few beta keys.
Go for gold!

The baseball episode is here. A lot went on in this episode but I think the main take aways are:

• Haruko fucks with Naota buy making him think his dad and her were doing the fooly cooly
  
• Theres an intergalactic organisation who are trying to stop whatever Haruko is upto 
  
• EYEBROWS
  
• Naota was willing to kill his dad because he was jealous
  
• Haruko can pull guitars out of peoples heads, Naotas makes girls get nose bleeds
  
• NAOTA SWUNG THE BAT
  
• Naota has pretty much fallen for Haruko, even if he might be in denial (poor Mamimi)
  

The cat episode is here! A lot of awesome stuff in this episode, and in a bit easier to follow, in my opinion.

I love the way the animator uses the same frames over an over. When Ninamori is eating the curry with the "I don't think its any big deal" scene and when Haruka is sitting on the top bunk and its the same smile she does with different replies.

The song I'm gonna feature tonight is "Stalker". This was also in the last episode when Mamimi is sitting in her circle of cigarettes. Has an awesome breakdown at 2 minutes.

The purple boys can help

Episode 2 is here! Mostly about Mamimi. Probably my favorite episode in the series too!

It features an awesome song - "Hybrid Rainbow", the pillows really are top notch. You should be happy they decided to come back to do the music for season 2 and 3. FLCL really wouldnt be the same.


After watching this through I noticed that once of the scenes was animated really weirdly and had japanese on the bottom of the screen. The animators took a lot of inspiration from other popular animators (just wait for the south park scene!) at the time so I wonder if they were copying someone here?
I took some screenshots of the scenes, translate please!

Quote of the episode:

Quote:Exactly where does the truth end and lies begin, Samijima Mamimi and Haruhara Haruko. A lot of lies are flowing around me. These two new horns that sprang up, a true story that seems like a lie.

The crazy ride has begun! I'm making this thread an hour early because a few of us in the discord have watched it already.

There are so many things I love about this episode. The crazyness, the music, the comic scene. So many great quotes too.

What did everyone think?

Just a reminder because I forgot to post earlier.
