First timer Fooly Cooly

Now i wanna start of by saying i have seen fooly cooly on the scheldule many times in the past but i just never watched it due to reason like it being on to late, the first episode seemed like a bit

for somone who was o so young and , and or i fell a asleep while watching it, but i had heard some good things about it so now i intend to watch it, and last night i saw the first episode in its 

entireidty and i must say i am as confused as it gets.

What's amazing about FLCL is that more or less everything gets explained by the end, or is itself highly symbolic. Just keep on watching.

It's not as confusing and random as people make it out to me. Maybe I'm just so used to abstract shows that I'd be unfazed if a pink disco ball spewing rainbows flew around outside, but FLCL does make at least some sense.

 

If you look into the symbolism, it's a show about appreciating your youthhood because sometimes you spend so much time trying to grow up that you take boring old childhood for granted and before you know it, you end up not letting go and become a jaded adult chasing after what made you happy in the past. Or maybe it's all just BS and was meant to be about a perverted alien chick who bashes kids in the face with guitars and give 'em bulging bee stings for the sake of innuendo laced jokes. However you wanna see it really.

You're supposed to be confused after the first episode, that is the whole gimmick.

 

It's shallow and meek but the hipsters overrate the fuck out of it because it has style.

 

But you'll understand everything soon enough, it is not a complex show.

It's always going to be one of the shows I have a soft spot for. It's really messed up, but in a good way. The music is great. The Pillows are wonderful.

I find it sad how AS cuts out the lesbian scene.

:smileyindifferent: There was never a lesbian scene. And I should know. I've seen it several times.
