Somehow we have already found our way to the end of FLCL! This week we go over Episode 6, "FLClimax"! And what a climax it is! Well, kinda. We'll explain in our review. What will come out of Naoto's head this time around? Who knows! What we do know is that next time we'll have our fill breakdown of the series, including a comparison between this show and the other two Studio Gainax anime that we have covered (Evangelion and Gurren Lagann).

Thanks for your continued support! See you all in 2023!

We're back with another wild episode of FLCL to discuss. In Episode 5, "Brittle Bullet," things get a heck of a lot hornier, and there's at least 200% more guns. And hands. It's a weird episode. And that's even by the standards of FLCL. Just one more episode to go in this season. Will we actually get some actual plot, or will this just be an experiment in frustration? Guess you'll have to listen to this week's episode to find out!

Well, we have another episode of FLCL to talk about and go onto weird side tangents. If this show is good for anything thus far, it's been their weird references to other things, such as Robot Detective K, which might be Andy's new favorite thing. This episode involves arson and another head robot. So basically much of the same. Join us for our review of Episode 2, "Fire Starter."

It's Season 8, baybee! We've come around to Bill's next pick, FLCL! The crew of Bill, Matt, and Andy dive into the deep end of craziness as they review the very first episode of the OVA, "Fooly Cooly." This is normally the part where we give a short summary of what to expect, but if you have seen FLCL before, you know that's pretty impossible. The music is good at least! Enjoy!
