So can we all agree that this was ACTUALLY the best thing

Yes. With Kare Kano at a close second.

>>157491328
It's only meh if you didn't watch it in your teenage years.

Overrated garbage.
Disgusting 3DPD lips by the way.

>>157491328
yeah

>>157491328
Agreed

Abenobashi was pretty entertaining.

>>157491328
It perfectly encapsulates teenage melancholy and the hard truth is if you didn't watch it before you became an adult you most likely didn't fully experience it.

It's the best thing Gainax has made but at the same time is only truly accessible to those younger than ourselves.

I watched this in the tail end of highschool... if this is true then I was inches away from missing the best experience of my life and losing my favourite anime.
The passage of time is terrifying.

>>157491621
Disagree. The style over substance wankery holds up great even without the nostalgia factor. The story is admittedly more apt for teens, but that's hardly what makes FLCL great anyway.

>>157491912
Fooly Cooly lips are gods gift to boners you worthless dirty pleb

>>157491328
Any answer that isn't EoE is objectively wrong.

>>157493181
But FLCL is actually deep.

WRONG

>>157491621
Now that's some major bullshit. Watched it when I was 20 years old and it's one of my top 10 and second favorite Gainax work.

That's not gunbuster

Yea probably.

I miss old Gainax.

>>157491328
It's alright. The themes are flat and obvious. But then I've never seen any anime that could be considered "deep" or where the main idea isn't on the surface.
I liked it, it's alright, reminds me of Eva too much though.

>>157493389
this.

>>157491328
Gainex made their magnum opus with just six episodes.

Eva > FLCL > TTGL > Kare Kano > Gunbuster > Diebuster >>> the rest

You don't begin to form a brain until 21, and even then I wouldn't trust them with anything beyond colors and shapes.

>>157494385
>teenager
>literally has the word teen in it
Normal people at 21 already have their degree and have jobs and houses.
You're retarded, anon. Seems you still haven't formed your brain.

>>157494385
You begin to form a brain in the womb anon. Though in your maybe it was at 21.

>>157491328
Nope.
Fooly Cooly requires the viewer to be an easily amused underage retard to enjoy.

Overrated.

I watched this for the first time when I was 27 and still loved it, what the fuck are you guys talking about?

>>157493389
this really
but flcl was still one of the best, I'd say it ties with ttgl

>>157495852
Same here, I was 25. I was like second-hand nostalgia.

While it's fairly obvious you can understand it at whatever age, since it's a good show.

I can understand the sentiment of getting 'more' out of it watching when you were a teenager, then again as an adult.

Personally I didn't really get much asides from the obvious references, the fight scenes, and a little bit of what was going on.

The Yellow Vespa confused the fuck out of me, and I didn't get the ED. A lot of the 'adult' stuff was lost on me.

Then watching it again as an adult and understanding not only the adult perspective, but understanding the teenangst better too.

So just being able to watch it again and relate very strongly.

>>157496808
FLCL was made by Gainox.

>>157496854
what is the deal with the vespa then? I never thought much about it. Is it supposed to be something about wasps and haruko 'stinging' people with her rickenbacker?

>>157491328
I'm not sure how an experimental show that's just a bunch of artists throwing shit at a wall to see what sticks is really something I'd call their best work.

>>157497354
it was just a thing someone on the staff had.

An old neat Vespa, I don't even think it ran.

When you're depressed and over worked you kind of latch onto things.

A bright yellow Vespa was one of them I guess.

Actually it's C3-bu

>>157498041
no, actually it's this
Jokes aside I genuinely believe this was one of the best things to come out of Gainax

>>157491328
to be honest, I haven't watched honeymayonnaise, gunbuster, shopping arcade, or EoE.

But the right answer is probably C3-bu or >>157492209, just because I've realized that "serious" anime are shit except Oshii's stuff

>>157498673
still haven't finished it

>>157499182
I almost dropped it at ep3, then stayed for episode 4 and it picked up the pace and it become less episodic and the overarching plot starts to kick in.
