I still think this is the definition of unnecessary sequel.

2016 - 2017- 2018 is the Tri-year of Unnecessary sequels :|

 

I say that, because PPG 2016 was from last year.....every other unneeded reboot is from this one however (edit: also next year)

 

 

 

lets just wait and see how good or bad the FLCL sequel is

Even if it misses the mark entirely, FLCL 2 will still be way better then NuPPG.

not necessarily, not all anime reboots are good either

 

Dragonball Super for example is

as far as I'm concerned

They captured lightning in a bottle with that first season. Threw a bunch of stuff together and somehow had it work.

 

I think the odds they can recapture that magic are pretty low, but here's hoping.

Yeah, but that's assuming that DBZ and FLCL are the exact same kind of show, which is clearly not true.

That's one reason I still have reservations. The first FLCL were OVAs born from giving amateur animators at Gainax free reign to experiment and create their own short story with a decent budget and incentive to get weird with it.

 

FLCL 2 & 3 seem like they came about because Americans won't shut up about wanting a sequel, and Gainax has nothing better to do since Anno's been holding out on Eva 4.44 and the rest of their creative department that made good shows moved to Trigger.

I...don't know how to feel about this.  I can't watch the trailer right now, so I'll comment on that later, but I'm inclined to agree with Jman that I don't know how necessary a FLCL sequel is.  I hope it will be good, but I'm not holding out for it.

Strangely, reportedly Kari Wahlgren hasn't been asked to reprise Haruko yet  ???

 

Maybe they haven't cast yet, I know dubs often happen pretty close to airing

 

Patience Grasshopper.  Dubs take time to make. Not everyone is Funimation.  It took Erica Mendez a while to hear about reprising Akko for the LWA TV series but she eventually did.

I foresee this getting the Jack treatment. First few episodes are amazing, then it falls into meh. Haruko will probably be the Aku of the series, be more downplayed in tone and only show up once every three to five episodes. Bonus Jack points if they give her a new VA that can't pull off the role.

get ready to have flashbacks to the disgusting voice Funimation replaced Ryoko's voice with

Unless

Naota returns as an adult and kicks asserage.

Speculation isn't exactly spoilers, Elfie. But still, considering the press release synopsis for the season explicitly asked the question of where Haruko's bass is, I have a feeling adult Naota will have at least some relevance.
