FLCL Thread. Anonymous 09/16/2023 (Sat) 20:51:09 No. 3642
FLCL's back and just as awful after progressive. The latest FLCL sequel, FLCL Grunge and it's filled up with crappy Lolcalization and other modern crap. https://archive.ph/zg68h Anyone else found Mamimi to be a pretty shitty chick in retrospect? Thought she was pretty interesting back when I saw this show as a kid and later realized the whole the point in hindsight was that Naota was trying too hard to seem adult as a kid when he's way over in his head as to what that actual entails, or am I remembering wrong?

>>3642 Even the last attempt at an FLCL sequel didn't work but this is really bad. FLCL was a shitpost experiment by passionate skilled people. You can't replicate that again because it has no larger narrative to be told. You also just can't recreate that energy with 3D animation.

>>3642 >that animation >that dub >that dialogue >that (((localized))) rant I haven't watched FLCL yet, but I still feel offended and sorry for fans of the original series.

>>3642 The people at Toonami/Williams Street just need to accept the fact they're just a bunch of out of touch gen-x'ers, that having ANN and Cunchyhole constantly blowing smoke up your ass is really a huge negative and that they just can't into anime, no matter how hard they try. cough, cough, Big O S2

>>3642 I'm pretty impressed with how consistently disappointed I can be in sequels. Everything about this sucks. >>3644 (checked) Yeah sometimes you just gotta let it rest. That doesn't make as much money though I guess. >>3646 >Big O I gotta watch that again. I remember almost nothing about it, but the theme still gets stuck in my head despite not having watched it since it aired the first time.

>>3647 What makes money is merch but they haven't done much there either.

>>3646 For as much bad rap as 4kids had, Series 3 of Sonic X (you know, the 'Metarex' arc?) hadn't turned out this awful. Series 3 of Sonic X was commissioned for the same reason the Warners commissioned those two FLCL series (that being: good audience turnout).

>>3652 I just did a little bit of research and and here's what I found out from their IMDb pages: Neither the writer nor the director have much history making anime. The most experience in anything animation related between the two is a short series that eventually got made into a movie by the two of them together back in 2012 named After School Midnighters and, of course, it's 3D animated as well.

>>3655 Correction: The writer hasn't worked on After School Midnighters, so it's just the director that has some experience. My bad, I got confused navigating IMDb.

>>3656 >>3655 Heard the studio only ever did commercials. Also, Grunge and Shoegaze are only three episodes each. https://nitter.net/MakiTerashima/status/1703260798091739474

>>3655 >>3656 >>3657 Wasn't there another 3D anime within the past few years that was done by a director who had ONLY worked on live-action productions, and it had some of the worst cinematography and action scenes anyone had every seen?

>>3658 Ex-arm or whatever it's called is the only one that comes to mind.
