FLCL - Season 1

"Nothing special happened, just the usual..." Well, that is not true at all because this is a thoroughly unusual, crazy, and in every way original production. It is a coming-of-age story where older girls are a very big deal to twelve-year-old boys, and love is a very complicated thing. It has a narrative set against a backdrop so crazy that you simply sit with eyes wide open, waiting to see what Naota Nandaba comes up with next. The narrative has such a great pace that it did not let me stop to catch my breath for a minute. The characters are great; I thought Haruko and Mamimi were cool, and Naota's classmate was interesting too. I had never seen such an original collection of great female protagonists before, and I quickly fell in love with them. Furthermore, the sultry vibes and sexual tension between the girls and Naoto were good! The comedy element was great, unpredictable, and also original. I also thought the soundtrack was awesome, I love live music of this kind, and it suited this show perfectly. So, in conclusion, there is a lot going on, and I enjoyed it immensely. 9.4/10.
