so how are they going to ruin her character /a/
She actually obeys traffic laws
>>139511850
she learned her lesson
>>139511850
She is redeemed into a altruistic good guy. She makes references to how meeting Naota changed her for the better.
She plays a chello
>>139511850
Making her FtM.
Lol fuq dat, how are they going to ruin the soundtrack?!
>>139511850
She's going to be nothing but an lolsorandumb chick with no motivation who will be a role model for the new main character. No deeper meaning, no symbolism involved at all.
She's going to come back as a male and seduce the MC, making it reversed FLCL and enraging waifufags.
Turn her into an SJW
>>139512528
oh god please no that would literally be the worst
they're inevitably going to have a scene where naota comes back and it's going to be fucking cringeworthy
Again, no irony as /a/ fails to realize her character was already ruined
Wait, what? Flcl 2?
>>139515097
2 more seasons baby
it's gonna belewd
>>139512947
The character designer isn't changing on FLCL.
>>139515183
Huh, it'll be interesting allright. I wonder if they'll do more stuff connecting to Diebuster?
That implies she was good at one point
>>139513184
so..the same
>>139511850
Don't care about her. I'm just wondering about Ninamori.
>female protagonist
>haruko, known child molester, is backyuriincoming
>>139515605
She's no gonna be in it.
They'll bring Naota back but he's gonna be lame and grown up and alone.
>>139514011
Hopefully while wearing the same meme rap outfit.
>>139511850
Why do people like her ? She literally cucks people
>No Ninamori
>No Kitsurubami
>No Mamimi
>No class teacher.
>no pillows OST
>Haruko will be toned down into a nice girl whose life was changed for the better after meeting Naota
It will be shit.
>>139516091
i figured it's just gonna be a remake
>flcl didn't change haruko
>torments new nubile teenage girl
>Naota returns in the Amarao role
>>139516091
>no pillows OST
Don't even care about the rest, this ruins it
>>139516091
>no pillows OST
They said the plan is to get them back.
>>139516991
Why do people keep thinking Naota will return as Crazy Cuck Eyebrows? I thought the ending of the original was to show that's what he wouldn't become really.
He needs one scene to show he's moved and is married to/dating Nina and that's it.
>>139517262
>Naota's dating Ninamori
>Haruko comes back and tries to put the moves on him
>he calls her out on her being a psychopath and doesn't play into her game
>third season he does
calling it
>>139517359
You had me up until the spoiler.
>>139512985
dubstep
>>139517400
that's because everything before the spoilers is what should happen: naota learned his lesson, haruko is still a piece of shit
but now it's time to milk this cashcow so let's retread things from the original
like when this scene gets reworked again
>>139515384
Obliquely, if at all, since Gainax isn't involved.
Another season is just completely needless. I'm pretty fucking surprised that Toonami is dipping into funding anime against after all the internal bullshit surrounding Big O years ago.
>>139518115
It's clearly a passion project.
>>139518220
So was Big O.
>>139518220
but it's gross that the news is coming from the people who have nothing to do with the original. it comes across like adult swim kept throwing money until it was like "fine we'll make more"
>>139517359
Fucking dumbass, as if Haruko would give up on sex incarnate Atomsk.
Is Gainax doing this or did someone purchase the IP?
>>139511850
she's gonna be a lesbian
>>139518479
Production IG bought the series. Toonami is cofunding the project.
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2016-03-24/toonami-to-co-produce-2-new-flcl-seasons/.100222
>>139518601
She's whatever she needs to be to get to the Atomsk dick.
>>139518220
This. They wouldn't get two seasons if they wanted a quick buck.
Hopefully they have what it takes to continue the series with what made it great, even if different.
>>139518427
she doesnt even want to fuck atomsk she wants to fucking eat himSO LEWD
>>139518660
What's the point if you're working with a completely different artistic director for a show like that?
So the new kid, Hidomi, is a girl? Well that sucks. The /ss/ was one of the best parts of FLCL
What if they do get the rights to use more Pillows music, butdon't animate around the music?
>>139518803
No, she wants him to literally be inside her. Like for him to wear her like a skinsuit. It's like ultra fucking.
>>139518851
It was actually the worst part because they were thinking about other men the entire time.
>>139511850
I really fucking hope she's not in season 2. Have it be about Naota and his brother and some other shit and then bring her back in season 3.
>>139518986
The summary already mentions her posing as a teacher for the new lead girl.
>>139518919
that's literally something they have no reason to fuck up. all the tone and character shit is screwed but they should be able to put a fantastic image to appropriate music
>>139519030
Fuck my life
>>139519030
>new lead girl
the fuck is this
>>139519049
I'm hoping my favorite song gets in. Hell, there's like 20 Pillows songs that could fit FLCL just off the top of my head.https://youtu.be/DblSZVdsAiE
>>139519030
Thank god a female lead. I've been assblasted at Gainax for them fellating their beta-kuns for 20 years. Even though it's IG, it's the closest we'll get.
>>139519110

Brace for portal fingering
>>139519212
So why would Haruko give a shit about MM fucking about with some dumb japs again? Don't tell me they captured Atomsk again.
>>139519247
I disagree. Naoto's story was complete. Haruko was the one with unfinished business.
>>139519167
yeah the soundtrack should be a slam dunk
>>139519308
Yeah I can't wait for them to completely rehash the original instead of doing something new or interesting.
>>139519212
>>But why did Haruko return to Earth?
Fraternity is related to Atomsk.
>>What happened to her Rickenbacker 4001 she left with Naota?
Naota is playing it because it's a free guitar
>>And where did the human-type robot ‘Canti’ go?
Making bread at Naota's house probably
Kinda obvious.
I don't really like that "believes there is nothing amazing to expect from her average life" part though.
>>139519308
Ultimately, Haruko doesn't matter. It's Naota's story, and her only relevance is how she affected him. Her desire for Atomosk's power was just a backdrop to develop Naota.
>>139511850
The best thing that could happen is Naota returns as a 20-something rocker involved in whatever the fuck she's doing and she lusts for him but he's grown up and moved on and lost interest.
>>139519295
They haven't made it up yet.
They just want to have the same premise but Naota is wise to that shit so they're shifting to a new character.
>>139519345
>not something new or interesting
>just a rehash
>after 16 years
It's clearly pandering to nostalgiafags while at the same time introducing a FUCKING INTERGALACTIC WAR
>>139519365

this is fine
>>139519363
Naota's story is complete though.
>>139519365
>self-inserts unable to cope with a girl not being into them after 20 years
get over it.
>>139519487
Not really. What happens when his brother comes back to Japan for example. There's plenty more that could be done with his character.
>>139511850
She's gonna dance and fusion with the main girl and they will be called "The Crystal Gems"
>>139519551
>What happens when his brother comes back to Japan for example.
His brother comes back to Japan and they say hi and catch up and talk and eat dinner together. Then his brother does his business in Japan. Maybe they exchange skypes.
Doesn't sound like a fun show.
>>139519620
But what about the pyromaniac slut that already moved on with her life!?
>>139519551
The last time we saw Naota he:
1.) Managed to steal the powers of Atomsk, a godlike being
2.)Saved his town and the planet from Medical Mechanica
3.)Defeated Haruko when she was going batshit trying to murder everyone
4.) Spares Haruko and confesses his love for her, knowing she doesn't love him back
5.)Abandons the power he has, chooses to be a kid.
how do you top that shit?
>>139519711
>the pyromaniac slut
>already moved on with her life
You answered it yourself.
>>139519774
>new season is about a new cast and town
>Mamimi moved away at the end of the first season
sad waifu confirmed for season 2
Guys, let's be serious here. We all love Haruko, but she is a very stock character: "crazy seductress who may or may not be actually evil"
It's not hard to do her justice.
they're just going to try really hard to replicate the original and it's all going to feel familiar and hollow
>>139520157
How about you post this on your blog instead?
>>139520147
>may or may not be actually evil
>Haruko
there's no debate here
>>139520215
this is low energy bait
>>139513184
>no motivation
>>139520147
I self-inserted as Atomsk so I like her. She did put a lot of time and effort rescuing me from my galactic prison. All she did was stroke a little kid's ego (among other things). I can deal.
>>139520430
She doesn't give a shit about Atomsk one way or another, she want to take his power for herself.
>>139520397
to be fair, the show played it really low key, with her only stating her motivation verbatim twice for the benefit of the audience
>>139511850
blonde canadian and fat
>>139519212
Holy shit this is EXACTLY the same as the original except rule 63d protagonist, even with the whole "Boohoo my life is bland" shit going on.
>>139519531
>Hurrr durrrrr self insert hurrr
Why do faggots throw this around so much? That's the best scenario because it plays off the ending of the original series perfectly and Haruko is a shitty backstabbing slut that deserves to be BTFO.
>Ao
>Ryuessei no Gemeni
>Vaan of the Silver Wings
And now a sequel to FLCL.
What a time to be alive.
>>139520741
haruko got btfo in the ending already
instead of getting ultimate power some horndog teen tried to make out with her and ruined all her plans. the only reason she didn't murderize naota is because she thought he was kind of sweet. she was salty as fuck in the ending
>>139520468
>believing this
Yah, nah. She's mad that Naota took it. She was clearly in love with Atomsk (and still is) and is now just full yandere because he's evaded her grasp. She wants the power because it's Atomsk's, not she wants Atomsk because of the power.
>>139520828
Okay.
What does that have to do with anything that I said. Unless they completely ruin her character she's probably coming back to fuck everything up again so getting BTFO even more definitely wouldn't hurt.
>>139520874
Why do you assume that? Haruko is on a warpath to her husbando. She's not even evil just devious and selfish. You'd need to fucking self insert to believe she could feel something for Naota, because it's directly contradictory to the coming of age story.
More like how are they going to ruin the show.
Throw a fucking dart. FLCL does not need a sequel whatsoever. Adult Swim are taking a nice little self-contained story which tied itself up nicely and they're milking it.And it's fucking killing me.
>>139512985
>Lol fuq dat
Hang yourself.
>>139520970
>Bases argument on assumption
>Throws out buzzwords again
Talking with you is like trying to piss out a kidney stone. I'm done.
>>139520977
Who cares? It's been 16 years. It's not like they're going to go into your HDD and edit the episodes. Just watch it without expecting much. You shouldn't even treat it like it's part of FLCL to be honest.
>>139521071
Why did you need to tell me this? Why don't you go back to your "Everyone loves MC" battle harems.
>>139521084
pretty much how i feel
i have very low expectations but if they have a good soundtrack and exciting visuals and the characters feel okay i can live with it
Will it even come close to the manga's level of nonsensical craziness?
>>139521348
no the manga goes full dark and adult swim likes the zany bits
i just don't know if it can be as great without all the creep /ss/
>>139521402
Maybe the girl will be into a Kaji character.
Page 186 of the second volume of the FlCl manga, Harkos "superior officer" admits that Haruko had fallen in love with Naota, but in the anime it was more ambiguous. I wonder which way the sequel will go.
>>139517635
This is going to be FLCLs equivalent of GITS' "Major falling out of a window and turning on her active camo" isn't it?
>>139521730
The manga and anime are completely different takes on the same basic premise. I doubt any of the characterization from the manga will be used.
>>139521730
Unless Haruko says it herself it's really nothing. She was deceiving pretty much every single character after all.
>>139521865
It was. It was haruko in a bunny suit, saying that she was haruko's superior officer, Raharu.
Haruko is a very nice lady. She gave a kid a guitar and a robot in exchange for helping her free her space pirate unrequited love. Win/win. I mean seriously.
>>139513184
I don't see any difference then.
>literally just rewatched it for the fifth time
>find this thread
Fucking jesus why would they do that
>>139512591
>chello
>>139522796
Because people like you are still watching it?
>>139522796
Because the people at Cartoon Network realized that the only people watching Toonami were nostalgiafags and normalfags, so they promised I.G. a pile of cash for more.
>>139511850
They won't. There's hardly anything to ruin, anyway.
The fact that a succinct thing that already ended is being continued is ruinous enough as it is. Horribly pointless sequels entirely missing the point of the original. But of course, because they just want to make money off an old name they're exhuming the corpse.
It could be exactly the same and I'd still consider it ruinous.
>>139522935
I don't get it, do you want them to decide what anime to make based on /a/ threads or something?
>>139521730
As far as the show is concerned she doesn't love him -- he's a freaking 12 year old. But she seems like she has something of a soft spot for him.
Manga was 100% better.

Vore is the purest form of love.
>>139523178
Was Takkun even fucking in control of his body? Those moves are crazy. Was Atomsk like "I got this bro, I'll get you close so you can confess k?"
>>139523293
Takkun controlled Canti a few times and was fucking badass. He knows how to beat the shit out of people.
>>139523293
the idea seems to be that when you "eat" atomsk you have full control over all his powers, since haruko wants the power
>>139523097
I don't think /a/ wants Adult Swim to make anime.
>>139523178
>I THINK I CAN, I THINK I CAN, I THINK I CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
The best minute in FLCL.
>>139523608
>best moment
>not the end of full swing
>>139523347
Takkun didn't really eat him. He got released from the prison and was chilling inside the wormhole Takkun had in his head.
Whatever happened between Takkun and Atomsk happened offscreen. But Haruko is really suprised to see Takkun come from Canti instead of Atomsk.
I don't think she wanted Atomsk's powers so much as she wanted Atomsk because her original plan seems like Atomsk would just crawl out from Canti without Naota. She only talked about the power after Naota fucking had it which was like adding insult to injury.
I don't think Haruko would stand a chance against a fully released Atomsk anyways.
>>139523293
I don't think Atomsk is so kind that he'd hold off on killing her. Nothing indicated he was a nice guy. My thought on this moment was
A) Takkun was always in full control
B) Atomsk was in control, but Takkun won it back to stop him from killing her
I'm a faggot, so I lean towards B.
>>139523608
Mamimi getting BTFO in episode 5 was the best.
>>139523608
Gotta go with Crazy Sunshine's use during the climax of Full Swing, anon.

So do we know anything about the release date other than "sometime late this year"?
>>139523767

>>139523767
Its actually "sometime in late 2018"
>>139523759
mah nigga
>>139523702
Atomsk seems pretty nice dude. Medica Mechanica are the ones who imprisoned him and they're the evil guys. The eyebrows dude says "Medica Mechanica are flattening planets all over the galaxy. Even the pirate king has been captured!", which directly implies Atomsk is an opposing force.
>>139512985
>Lol fuq dat, how are they going to ruin the soundtrack?!
Actually they are keeping The Pillows. The problem is the band hadn't been making good songs since the original show came out.
But really, what matters is if they did what they did with the original; play full length songs and just animate the scenes to match the music. FLCL was basically one massive music video.
>>139512591
>>139522828
https://youtu.be/rMhJshl9HE8?t=15
>>139523902
He also says Atomsk has no reason to help them
When Naota emerges has has full control of Atomsk. But he frees him after stopping Haruko. Atomsk obviously appreciates that so he gets rid of the terminal core before he bails and gives Haruko a fuck you
>>139520488
>to be fair, the show played it really low key, with her only stating her motivation verbatim twice for the benefit of the audience
Mostly because her story with her bracelet was on the cutting room floor. But really it works because she wasn't the main character.
>>139515605
>Don't care about her. I'm just wondering about Ninamori.
I care more about Mami.
>>139523902
>Medica Mechanica = the system
>Atomsk = revolutionary
>Naota = sheeple that has broken free
>Haruko/Mamimi = bitches be trippin, bros before hoes
It's a very teenage story.
>>139523935
>The problem is the band hadn't been making good songs since the original show came out.
>>139523975
Yeah but eyebrows is a xenophobe. Atomsk left to continue the good fight without chicks draggin him down. I don't think Takkun released Atomsk either because Atomsk looks to emerge from his forehead of his own volition. Like "nice one dude, imma skedaddle"
>>139523759

Wow. That fuck fucking dark.
>>139525864
Have you really never seen FLCL before?
>>139525821
the 4001's were only made until the 80's and i think it was a bit after that that their basses went to shit. something about changing how they were made i think
>>139526043
The modern 4003's have better frets and necks, but they never changed the fucking retarded bridge design from the 1960s. You have to take the strings off just to adjust the intonation screws. The nuts are cut a mile high from the factory, and they literally moved the neck pickup from the original location which completely changes how the bass sounds.
Do you think Haruko even looks human to begin with? She says that Kamon was an unevolved monkey.

You can get it fromreading the thread.
>new flcl seasons
please no
>years after original with new main character
I'm mostly fine with it then.
Just don't have any details that could retroactively fuck up something in the original.
So basically the entire final episode was:
>Haruko left because she didn't want to sacrifice Takkun to get to Atmosk
>came back because she decided to do it
>spent time with him due to guilt
She legitimately was prepared to kill him.
>>139527834

This is my favorite part of the series. There was just something so bittersweet about it. I felt sorry for Mamimi, and I simultaneously wanted to slap Naoto for being an insensitive dick, as well as kinda pat him on the back and tell him he'd understand what she meant someday.
>mfw FLCL actually had a coherent plot
The fuck was I paying attention to when I watched this. I literally got none of this and I rewatched it like 5 years ago.
>>139511850
Who the bloody fuck cares about this bitch? Ninamori all day.
