I've not posted in two or three days, I can do it once more!

I never stay up this late, so for me Adult Swim may as well not exist. But wow! It's good! Since when was FLCL dubbed? And why does it make so much more sense in English? (Or is it that I tried watching it as my first or second ever anime series, and now I have more experience so I get it more?) I'm actually enjoying it this time! Wish I hadn't deleted my copy of it.

Heehee. FLCL is actually funny! Yes, I think it must be the now-more-experienced thing, I can recognize the jokes in it!

I see Trigun is on at 1:30, though there's no way I'll still be watching TV at that point. (Think how many more LJ posts I'd make if I did stay up that late! Hee!) Big O is on next. I've heard the name around here and there, but I have no idea what it's about.

I'm tired and hyper at the same time. That's such a weird combination!

I caught up with my flist, but I'm too tired to deal with resizing things in Photoshop, so no screenshots tonight. I'm off all next week, so ...heehee, I love FLCL! Hee! ...so I'm sure eventually they'll get posted.

Still hungry. Mmmm, might go out and get food tomorrow morning. Mmm.

Quite. FLCL is makes more sense if:

1) You see it more than once.
2) You see it dubbed.
3) You've seen enough anime (and other bits of pop culture) to get more of the references.

You too? When I first watched FLCL last August, as one of the first series I saw, it made absolutely no sense to me (not the humor, not the storyline, not the self-referential jokes, nothing); now that I've seen parts of a few dozen series, it made so much more sense and was such fun when I saw it again last Friday!

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Exactly! That's just how it was for me, too!

Hm. I guess this means I'll have to try it again. The first time I saw it I was just like, "...BUH?" But I know too many people who've seen it several times and love it, so. If you like it, I probably will.

I'd suggest giving it another chance, yep! I giggled for the whole half-hour (even into the commercial breaks!).

The best part about FLCL is that the (also really short) manga has what seems to be almost an entirely different way of getting about the story.

...Or perhaps a different story entirely. I've only read it once so it's kinda hard to tell.

The FLCL manga seems to make absatively posilutely no sense at all. It annoys me! I couldn't follow it at all! GRA!

I've only read the first book, so I can't say much, but yeah, Pep's right.

Confusing as all heck, no sense of plot... and the art is bad. You know it's bad when the manga sequence from the first and last episodes look better than it. Ick.

The anime is exponentially better, that's for sure.
