FLCL

Just finished this pretentious garbage of an anime. Why is this held in such a high regard when it is extremely shallow? Fans called it Gainax's masterpiece after Eva, lmao what? Extremely disappointed.

I think it's just Gainax fanboyism. For me, Abenobashi is a better show

>pretentious
stopped there

>Why is this held in such a high regard
Boomers love it because it aired on Cartoon Network when they were kids, that's it.

sure smells like 12 year olds in here

Worst part is they try to think it is something deep lmao

It's style over substance garbage for literal 12 year olds. Only fags who like it can't get over their nostalgia.

this

t. dumb 12 year old

"pretentious" is a substanceless buzzword word used by people with the brain power of a cheese grater who have no ability to actually articulate criticism

>tumblr faggot
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

What about FLCL is pretentious?

just say you have no taste and go lmaooo

OP, I'm guessing that you watched FLCL simply because you heard the hype about it, and possibly ultimately viewed the anime through the lens of "all right, impress me!", while in reality you may have already had your mind made up about it and were just looking for reasons to think "this isn't that good."

Most people who watched FLCL around the time it came out in the early 2000's likely went into it blind and were pleasantly surprised. I feel a little bad for you.

Imagine being filtered by fucking FLCL

i saved a fucking image from it so what? im not a faggot like you who renames everything

There's always something happening onscreen and yet it's quite boring to watch.

Abenobachi is just as mediocre, if not worse.

Because the pacing is atrocious. It’s nonstop high energy and is really obnoxious to sit through.

cringe

It looks good and is fun. If FLCL is shallow, well so is most esteemed anime anyway. The only pretentious one is you looking to find something profound in a TV show for teenagers made by a bunch of nerds.

everytime i think my attention span and intelligence suck, i like to come hear.

If you have to go into something with drastically low expectations to be good, it’s shit.

>Boomers love it because it aired on Cartoon Network when they were kids, that's it.

So has "Boomer" shifted to mean anyone over like 20 now? Boomers weren't the ones watching CN in 2003.

FLCL felt too random for me and the only things I remember is that ZONE flash and the ending with the vespa.
Abenobashi felt more like a proper story. It was funny and I want Arumis panties

Soundtrack is good.

Yes yes, everything is bad and sucks, we get it.

If you were 12 when it aired on CN (2003) then you are a fucking 29yo grandpa now, you retarded boomer.

>not having an anime reaction image folder with 1000s of images
No you fucking faggot, no. I have 10 terrabytes of storage on this computer alone and a fast internet connection so i can get a hold of high quality copies of pretty much any anime very quickly.

Ha, joke's on you: I'm 36. But really, has "Boomer" actually lost its meaning as a specific age bracket and just become a synonym for "old person"? That seems pretty dumb.

Imagine being this old and confused by the current internet slang, lmao.

I can't imagine, that's why I'm asking.

go sleep gramps

>attempting to impress by affecting greater importance, talent, culture, etc., than is actually possessed.
It frames getting a boner as some important life changing event. It seems pretty pretentious to me.

Do you have a qt daughter?

Millennial here. I would watch it during college when it aired on Adult Swim. It's an okay OVA.

you shouldnt have to go into it with any expectations at all you absolute mongoloid retard.

For kids that is a big deal.
Coming to terms with sexual desire and romantic interests is a big part of the maturation process.
FLCL is all about finding your own way to self-control and independence.

It's an okay OVA, but I prefer Jungle de Ikou

OG flcl was some ugly lolsorandom garbage. the new one ain't so bad though

FLCL is not for kids. It was aired on ADULT SWIM. Go back to Zig Forums

Thats only during the comedy portions, its actually a remarkably slow show when it gets serious.
Some really great direction in it with long shots that keep you stuck on a character's sometimes subtle reactions, and excellent framing.
