FLCL - Little Busters by The Pillows

[@sijungyang3954]

Nothing amazing happens here. Everything is ordinary. We crossed the bridge as usual, and before we knew it the seasons had changed. Mamimi left town. She said she wanted to be a photographer.

[@KiomonDuck]

@@jesusdamian1874 you can't even hold Sao in the same universe as FLCL. FLCL has 1/100th the volume of content and is so much more than anything Sao tried to be.

[@xxsuper99xx]

@@jesusdamian1874 dude the only emotion sao creates is a deep shame for being human. Best thing was the fanservice arc of them moving to a house in the forest with their ai "child", went from 0 to 100 shit real quick.

nothing can get the feeling across that flcl can

ahhh my childhood, staying up late for inuyasha cowboy bebop and big O flcl trigun.

[@wudenbachs]

I just rewatched Trigun this week, and was having the same memories. We kin, brother.

[@zhongchenle5786]

0DDGH0ST literally my childhood 🤠

[@spbspb2413]

for me it was Inuyasha, Yu Yu Hakusho, Trigun, Naruto, Full Metal Panic

[@Thing1meetsThing2]

I miss those times~~~

[@zacharyvoss5270]

Hell yeah man, me too but dont forget about outlaw star, yu yu hakusho, and full metal alchemist. oh yeah and remember lupin the 3rd haha. those were good days... i miss them. Long live adult swim :)

[@LochNessHamster]

I heard this song clearly in my dreams once, which is odd because my dreams are usually very visually driven and rarely have much sound at all. It was so vivid I woke up thinking that FLCL had come on my TV while I was asleep, and was disappointed when it wasn't.

[@GenderPranks]

NICKREAPER316 How did you interpret that is what I'm interested in. Did it have to do with nostalgia or regret? I'm in the hard sciences, but enjoy dream interpretations.

[@LochNessHamster]

GenderPranks Nostalgia or regret? What? No, I just had a dream about Fooly Cooly and woke up thinking I'd get to catch an episode before I started my day, and was saddened when I didn't.

[@darthmusturd9526]

NICKREAPER316 same with mine

[@ginndiaries]

This anime gets better as u age. Rumor has it that nobody was seen entering or leaving the animation studio.

[@iplyrunescape305]

What that mean?

[@theguywhoasked2597]

Except when they made a trigger

[@deaderthendead041]

I felt so sad when this anime ended in the us, it felt like a good freind moving far away, if that makes sense

[@mosesthecgartist]

+deaderthendead041 Exactly how I felt :(

[@GoodMorning-yp8qe]

+deaderthendead041 its coming back though, just got announced

[@egleraptor8162]

It's probably not going to be as good nothing can top the first season

[@harukoharuhara6680]

I see you're one for minor spoilers? nice. BUT FEAR NOT, BECASUE FLCL; PROGRESSIVE and FLCL; ALTERNATIVE ARE COMING THIS YEAR!!!!! TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW!!!!! DRAW POSTERS AND HANG EM EVERYWHERE IN TOWN!!! THROW A RELEASE PARTY!!! GET FURIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII KURIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!! yeaEAEaEaeAEaAAAAA

[@frankiewild99]

How did you feel when it came back?

[@playrax]

I'm so glad I decided to watch this on a Saturday night when i was younger. I was way to young to even get close to understanding this show but I liked it regardless. I look back so fondly of this show and all experiences I've had watching it.

[@DoomerNavajo7]

Same here

[@spurgeoncj42]

Considering our profile pics, I feel pretty confident in saying that this show played a big part in our anime history :D

[@nickabstract6774]

LMAO I was like 7 this was actually the first anime I ever saw before Pokemon and digimon I saw the first episode on adult swim (I don't like dubs tho but I was little) and I was so confused and for a couple years I would remember the ep but I never knew the anime until one day I saw a video talking about it. Now it's my 2nd favorite anime of all time

[@prixrr2038]

I'm so glad too.

[@Revealingstorm.]

I showed the first episode of flcl to my friend, and they didn't like it. I think they might have been dropped on their head as a kid.

[@xChirox]

This anime makes me reminisce to my early teen years. I miss those years, I didn't know what I wanted out of life, I just waited for the next day to come through.

[@kingmoorer3853]

this is just sounds like that end of the day song

[@Zeldafan1ify]

The anime does have a sunset vibe to it

[@user-xu2jo3lo3j]

言葉に言い表せない魅力がある、思い出の作品

[@ta-1san659]

この曲の最初のギターのリフがめちゃくちゃ好きです！！ そして『フリクリ』は、the pillowsに出会わせてくれた作品でもあり大好きな作品です。 何百回も全話繰り返し見ました！！ 出会わせてくれてありがとうございました。 これからも聞き続けます‼️

[@subconsciousbrolonging-6551]

The moment you realize the anime is about growing up.

[@sparky1600]

true tho 😂 but I could care less about the underlying theme, I actually like it for the story/characters 😂🔥

[@TheFlyinSquid]

Im just along for the ride

[@Potatoslice]

that gives it meaning that didn't occur before. I enjoyed it for being chaotic, fun,adventurous and teasing at depth.

[@gingerfeliciano9531]

in the beginning when we see Canti go atomsk red the symbol means "adult" then by the end it flashes the symbol for "child" teaching us to value our childhood and stop trying to grow up so fast

[@someperson2500]

Growing up with a bunch of weird shit going on around you.

[@samuelsavary4895]

This is my personal favorite song from the soundtrack :D

[@mogaman28]

I show FLCL to my niece and nephew when they were 12 and 14 years old. Now I'm the coolest uncle in Earth.

[@jelly_boydj705]

some parts are not pg-13,lol but good on ya

[@EJ-wr8bl]

Fooly Cooly legit opened my eyes to a genre outside of hip hop. I love this music! 🎸

[@jaywiththe9956]

I know

[@Runescythe9852]

It may have been a short show, but man this show never gets boring. Its like a mind trip without the psychedelic drugs.

We used to watch it *on* psychedelic drugs lol

[@jayricktor4268]

Welp. Time to go rewatch my favorite anime of all time for the exactly 67th time

[@harukoharuhara6680]

how was it? still as great as your FIRT TIME?? heheh.

[@ScrunchyTacos]

I just watched flcl for the first time yesterday. Me and a buddy got stoned and played through the series. It was so cozy, and this series just made me happy and content. I didn't follow along especially well, but the music, animation, and set pieces made me think it was just the best show ever. Then the small moments like when the one girl poked through her glasses. Just everything about it is simply awesome.

[@shinosukenohara5721]

This anime made me feel some new feelings as a kid.

[@ThePimpmo]

With the kissing of the future, every gangsta needs a mustache just waiting for the milk mustache oh yeahhhhh yeah yeah yeah

We're the kids set in the future, maybe kids don't need a master just a waiting for the little walk of yeahhhhh yeah yeah yeah!

[@lucasvoltaire8364]

This anime is an irreplaceable gem and took its place among the "greats" with such relative ease,you'd swear it was meant to complete you once you feel it,Fooly Cooly is more than an anime,its a cobble stone on the road of life ^_^ He conquers the left side conquers the world chief ^_^

[@janemba42]

I can barely describe the feeling this Anime gives me. But it's like.... All the bad things about growing up. All the little worries and anxieties, but all the good feelings too at the same time.

[@mewatonin]

This show has the third greatest soundtrack (in my opinion, of course) with the first being Angel beats and second being cowboy bebop, those are pretty great

[@logangagnepain7154]

*fist bump* respect

[@YaBoiScrumpo]

Lol, I have my biases towards rock, so my list in order is FLCL, Angel Beats and Cowboy Bebop, but I very much appreciate your choices! Thumbs up!

[@mewatonin]

Yeah, i've changed my mind. Now I agree with your list more than mine.

[@TheSavagegamer69]

dont forget the sound of gurgling bleach

[@RallyLancer95]

Eva? Trigun? Cmon

[@madbassist94]

greatest coming of age story in anime

[@eduardokun00]

Tal vez uno de los mejores y más desquiciados animes que se han creado, esta banda sonora se me metió en la cabeza hace más de doce años ya y ahí permance, con las imagenes y los personajes.... un anime en verdad increible....

[@Sv_vic]

In a few weeks , I am getri f a tattoo from this series. It struck something deep Inside , forever greatful. This series deserves to live on .

[@EChoom]

Holy crap this is such a good sounding song

[@simplemagi4691]

I just remember watching this when I was only 8 years old on adult swim, it was crazy, I had absolutely no idea what was happening in the show, but I still loved it, then when I became 14 I rewatched it, and felt like sympathize with Ta-kun (probably spelled that wrong) alot more and understood what he was going through.

[@wingedsaiyan]

How-many-licks does-it-take i watched it when i was 15 and related to it cuz naota is pretty much all of us at that age but also cuz i was in love with a junior when i was a freshman. Like she way so fkn cool and i was with her all the time and i was too much of a kid to be with her. She had all these ex bfs that were older than her and for some reason she gave me attention like if i was meant to be special to her. She took off in the end just like haruko lol but to college. Never talked to her after that lol. The anime will forever hold a special place in my heart not only because of that relation but because its also just an amazing anime. The ost is fkn amazing also.

[@kaelhyun2401]

@@wingedsaiyan That girl sounds more like Mamimi then Haruko especially if you read the Manga were Haruko gives Naota her Vespa so he can find her one day

[@wayne8797]

The most memorable anime form my childhood. Nothing even comes close. I lost count of how many copies I have of the anime or how many times I have watched it.

[@omegasaiyanuchiha3426]

Ahhh The old days when I was in middle school this one was one of my favorites the music and the scenes combine brings so much nostalgia asf.

[@OtavoR90]

Goosebumps right when the guitar starts

This is my favorite anime and the nostalgia I feel from it makes me hurt so bad. All I do is cry when I watch it. I wish it didn't.

The Pillows did such a good job with the FLCL soundtrack

[@beemillo4741]

Flcl and its music, give me strong early 2000 childhood vibes.

[@zombieater6663]

One of they first anines I ever saw. Will always have a special place in my heart with eureka 7

[@shabby2901]

This anime is very interesting to me. When I saw the first episode, I was at my grandpa's in Arkansas. I couldnt sleep, so I watched cartoon network into the night until adult swin came on. I didnt know what it was, what anime was, anything. I only saw the first episode, and it took me a couple years to find the show again. But for those years, this show was like a shiny pokemon for someone who has never seen one. It was an occurence that only happened once and became so mysterious to me. I'm glad I found it again to love this music and the show.Ultimately, this story didnt mean much, but it felt like it did.

[@leonelllo]

watched this show like 2 or 3 months ago but feels nostalgic af

[@Baseballmagee]

It's crazy.. i was a 4th grade when i first heard. this ..now we're the masters

[@dustinmccollum7196]

I love FLCL as a teen and didnt know it was about enjoying childhood and learning to grow up when it time untell I was in my late 20's watching it again.

First time I saw this anime I came home late in HS. I was tripping pretty good from a night of mushroom exploration. This was starting right when I flipped on adult swim. Melted my brain and have been a fan since.

[@then35t18]

When I first saw this anime I was 13 years old, and it was so beautiful that I cried. I cried anguished tears of joy, feeling as though my life experiences would never be this wonderful, yet at the same time, felt a connection stronker than words to this imaginary world and its characters. My words fail to describe how incredible this anime is.

I've never related to any piece of media more than fooly cooly alternative. Ten years late to the party on fooly cooly and it all holds up. I haven't cried in a long time but I think I cried when it ended. I'm hopeful for the next iterations, I don't care if they end up being garbage cashgrabs. I'm always going to watch.

[@kwankwan3937]

I've never seen this anime but from the comments it looks good. I think I'll give it a chance to see him it's dawn.

[@kwankwan3937]

Hmm, it was really good. I watched it more than a year ago, but I still thing about it sometimes

[@cannondebris]

The anime community always goes on about how crazy and weird FLCL is, but by the end I just thought it's nice that Mamimi seems to be doing okay after leaving town.

EPITOME OF FLCL!! ❤️🛵🎸🤖

[@astralnaught9431]

The story was so beautifully finished and not, it’s about relationships and growing up and it ending so suddenly without much understanding perfectly taught us sometimes good things just end no explanation no closure just that longing for more.

[@Artemis820]

I heard fooly cooly is getting a season 2 but naota won't be the main character supposably the show will focus on a new female character named hidomi?! I'm a little disappointed about that but I'll still try to watch it and hope it turns out well

[@logangagnepain7154]

Im actually really looking forward to a new cast, but i wonder if they will stick to the old meta or a totally new take. Im not the most informed of individuals but i love flcl and i doubt theyll fuck it up

[@petert6884]

as long as haruko is still there and the pillows still do the soundtrack then it'll be good

[@tromusic7815]

Artemis but wouldn't this be the best song for an adult Naota and Kanti to fly in to during the big boss fight?

[@eyylmao5370]

Kinda glad tbh I don't think there is a whole lot they could do with these characters any more without fucking it up. Hate when people can't just let shit be and let a good ending be a good ending.

No, Naota's story is done. I hope they do a good job with the new heroine.
