Hello! This, as you can tell, is a fanclub for the anime/manga FLCL, an anime so bizarre that I could only follow what the hell was happening half the time.
I noticed that there isn't any Fanclub for it, so I'm putting one up.
To join, simply ask me!

Accepted. Thanks for being the first to join.
It is a rather difficult anime to follow. Not that I'm any expert, or anywhere near.

Meh, count me in, bucket. This series was fucking crazy. Never did get it, still liked it though.
Here are some banners I whipped up real quick. I'll make better ones later if I feel like it.
Available in 3 different sizes for viewing pleasure.

Join please!
I was just watching the anime (for like the 5th time) yesterday to kill time between concerts. I was really hoping no one would come up, ask what I was watching, and then want me to explain it! I was lucky :)

So wanna get the fc going yet? Or you wanna wait for more members first?
Mr_Bucket_Hat
12-15-2008, 12:16 PM
Well, I/we have got six members, including me, so If you want.
Am I the only one Who felt sorry for everyone by the end of the final episode? The high school girls trust was broken, the Fake Eyebrow guy was ignored, Ultramaid was twarted again (although she got a kickass double neck guitar), and the kid was left back to his tedium. And the robot, what has he got to look forward to?

It was kind of unsatisfying thats for sure. But then again it stayed true to the idea that "nothing ever happens" there.

@Mr.BH: LMAO! You actually went and made a FC for it. Priceless. Hell, while I'm here I might as well join...

Anyone loved the robot thing that ate Naota? That thing was freaky.
Razvan_Asakura
12-17-2008, 01:15 AM
Yeah , he was pretty sick . I mean , heck , he made his first appearance by pop-ing out of Naota's head .
Beat that Kishimoto !

Alright, metalsoup joined...
Yes. Yes, I have arrived.
I just think it's awesome that the chick plays a blue Rickenbacker 4001 electric bass. Old school rules...
octocheese
12-17-2008, 07:07 PM
How durable are the Rickenbakers? Hers is solid. An indestructible instrument... that would be great!
metalsoup111
12-17-2008, 08:48 PM
If you're in a tight spot and need a improv weapon, an electric bass is definately a good choice. Most often they are heavy enough to do some decent damage, but light enough to swing effectively with good force...
Thankfully, I've personally never had the unfortunate pleasure of accidentally testing the durability of a Rickenbacker, but I have with many a Fender bass. They're pretty indestructible. I've had one of mine fall down a flight of stares. Worked perfectly afterword, as expected. I'm telling you, Leo did them right...

^lol. Metal, just make the fucking Bassist FC already.
And yes, I also loved that the crazy pinked hair girl had an old school Rickenbacker 4001. One of the reasons I started watching FLCL.
Mr_Bucket_Hat
12-18-2008, 10:00 AM
Its not just a bass guitar though, it's also a goddamned gun. I love her lemon Yellow Scooter though. And not only because it can drive itself.
metalsoup111
12-18-2008, 11:49 AM
I think I remember reading that the sale of that exact model of scooter in Japan went through the roof during and following the original airing of FLCL. lol. Oh, those crazy japanese people and their trippy cartoons...
octocheese
12-18-2008, 12:35 PM
Anybody know what kind of scooter it is? And old vespa maybe?
metalsoup111
12-18-2008, 01:21 PM
It looks like a Vespa...
Mr_Bucket_Hat
12-18-2008, 02:19 PM
Wikipedia says its a vespa, but I wouldn't take it as gospel.
Razvan_Asakura
12-18-2008, 03:03 PM
Even if it is a Vespa , it's not an ordinary one .... that's fo' sure . lawl

I gotta question. I glanced at the manga once but didn't read it. will I get more FLCL story in the manga or did the anime cover it all?
metalsoup111
12-19-2008, 07:36 AM
I've only read a little of it a long time ago and that was quite a while after I'd seen the anime. Can't really remember, but it probably does...
Mr_Bucket_Hat
12-20-2008, 12:56 PM
The third episode was confusing as bedamned. I hadn't a clue about what was going on except that a satellite was falling down, and there was a baseball game on. After that, I have no idea.
zanpaktou0101

yeah that episode was weird. i like the episode when they do the manga thing with the fooly cooly. when i saw that i kept re-watching that episode

Nobodies entirely sure. Do you wish to join?
@Fornicaras: Accepted, sorry for the wait.
Also: This is a small operation, but theres lots of room for... Aggressive expansion! But theres only one co owner spot available, so we will be having Try outs.
In other words, Who wants to be co owner?

Maybe you should appoint it later on to someone that will be very active here . Or something like that .
In any case , let's pick up a topic . hmph .

For the most part, the Manga retains most of what the anime covers, but it also has a sort of darker tone as well as a little less details and dialogue. A pretty interesting mix and read, and I would recommend it for fans who love the anime.
And...

Nice banner! I've glanced at the manga and it's, um...very different style than I'm used to. I should read it anyway. Though if it has less details and less dialogue I don't know if it will make anymore sense than the anime! lol
Razvan_Asakura
01-12-2009, 08:45 AM
Well , the action really makes up for the lost dialogue here , you gotta admit .
Fornicaras
01-12-2009, 10:20 AM
Yea, it does. One of the more twisted mangas I've read, but a favorite nonetheless.

Unoffical welcome whiteasakura.
I was watching eps 3 & 4 the other day and I started thinking about the dubbed voice actors. I've never seen it with the original japanese voices (subtitles would be nearly impossible to read on my ipod). It got me wondering if anyone has seen it with both sets of actors and what they thought about them. Imo the english dub is excellent but since I haven't seen the japanese version that doesn't mean much.

Hardcore joinage!!!
There were many memorable moments in the anime. I've always wanted to learn how to ride a motor bike and watching the anime got me very interested in purchasing a Vespa. It seemed cheap and low maintenance; basically safe. My memory is failing me because I keep getting FLCL and Excel Saga scenes mixed up which makes it even more ridicolous. pain and laugther

Unofficial welcome winger and kukaku.
Anyone read the manga? I've tried a couple times but I can't get through it. I get bored of all things! I'll keep randomly trying but I think this may be one of the few mangas that's better in anime form!
Kukaku_Yamada
07-17-2009, 02:55 PM
I read the manga. I thought it was very confusing,
And I read it in seventh grade. lol.
The art in it irks me.
O.O
The anime is much better. <3

unofficial welcome kakaku
i read the manga and the novels. after reading them and watching the anime i got a better understanding of what was going on. the manga and the novels have a lot of details that the anime didn't have.
Kukaku_Yamada
07-18-2009, 06:00 PM
It has Novels?
Ha. I should check for them. :D
