PokeNirvash Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) No complaints here, the Pillows are good J-rock through and through. (Carl Kimlinger can rot in a ditch for calling "Scarecrow" "crappy J-pop" in his Moonlight Mile review.) Plus it makes up for the Biscuit Hammer anime staff being too cheap to license any of their songs for even theme music. I mean, why even adapt the manga if you aren't gonna make its namesake the opening anthem? Edited July 2, 2022 by PokeNirvash 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben0119 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) Eh? I didn't know any more FLCL shows were being made? But why, after the reception the others got? At least the music should be good.

Progressive had a lot more artistic merit, with each episode almost being its own short film. But yeah neither series was necessary. Though I would call them more spin-offs than sequels, given how loosely connected they are to the original.

MasqueradeOverture Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 The idea of a wacked-out CG anime version of Singles sounds cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
