Just rewatched the last disc for the second time to soak some more in... I think once I watch the commentary, everything should completely come together. As it stands, I'm pretty sure I understand the jist of things.
FLCL has been nothing short of charming and engaging. Awesome, awesome. Synch-Point only made it better with each successive release... Goddamn, these discs are well-done.
Episode 5 was incredible on so many levels. The constantly changing art style, the insanely hyper action scenes... Christ. Genuinely funny, too. Lots of always-fun sex jokes.
Enough gushing for now.
The continuing vibe, or main theme, throughout FLCL seemed to be "you can never possibly understand everything," or "misunderstanding." I can't really think of how I want to say what I really mean right now. Maybe when I can catch my breath... However, when Haruko says "You're still just a kid..." I think that reflects everything the series was aiming for.Originally Posted by stormy
