What was the message? Hags are evil?
Yes. And stop simping for women.
>>291599973"Life sucks, but you have to deal with it anyway."
What would you do in this situation?
>>291599973FLCL is a story about sexual abuse. Naota gets used by both Haruko and Mamimi and his child brain mistakes it for feelings of love. In reality though they have no love for him, Mamimi is using him as a replacement for his older brother and Haruko is using him to get closer to Atomsk (who is symbolically his older brother through the TV guy). Naota's dad is both neglectful as well as behaves carelessly sexual around Naota. Fooly Cooly is just sex. The show's confusing nature reflects how confusing sex is to a child and how confused Naota is because of the sexual abuse he faces at the hands of multiple women. Throughout the whole show he's trying to force himself to be an adult to compensate for experiencing adult things that he shouldn't be. Trying to be more like his older brother when he's scared, forcing himself to drink sour drinks even though in both the first and last episode we know he doesn't like them. Haruko leaving him at the end is almost like an admission of her own guilt, she realizes he's just a kid and lets him be just a kid. He's matured enough to know that he's NOT mature by the end, as he stops hanging out with Mamimi and the last scene is him hanging out with Eri and his other age-appropriate friends, drinking a sour beverage and letting the audience know he still doesn't like it.FLCL is very meaningful and not difficult to understand its regularly dismissed as nonsense because people are dumb and stupid.

>>291600281Fuck the elementary schooler.
The message is that trying to not be stupid makes you more stupid.
>>291599973When are you going to swing the bat?
>Hags are evil?Yes, 14 is prime.
>>291599973>What was the message?I'll never be an adorable, hung wakashu popular with the ladies who desperately want to make me their boytoy. And that makes me very sad.>>291600486WOE IS ME! The post...
>>291600210Bravo Gaynax.
>>291602214this guy is correct.
>>291599973Crazy chicks are hot but you have to keep up with them or get left behind.
A young boy who acts very mature meets an older woman who acts very immature. She tries to make him more manly only for them both to discover that he is not as old as he acts and there are some things he's not ready for.
>>291600486yep, thats it. I cant belive how low IQ the fucking world and this board in general are to not understand this.
>>291599973>"At your age, you're both more mature than you believe but not as mature as you think you need to be. You don't need to rush to grow up, you inevitably will so don't let the wonders of youth pass you by. It will get a little crazy and awkward at times, but don't let those missteps guide your entire character as you grow."

>>291604585She would insist on being the big spoon for a while.
>>291599973If you are trying to find morals or messages in FLCL I feel extreme sorrow for you and your offspring.
>>291600486To me it's just a coming-of-age story about sex and relationships and why you shouldn't rush into adulthood
>>291605317Are you trying to kill someone here?

>>291605346Filtered.
>>291605346>consoom and don´t think about it
>>291600486>>291607306Naota is one of the best shotas, you'd have to be clinically blind not to want to groom him.
>>291599973Hags are evil and don't let your penis govern your life.
>>291600486thanks
>>291600486This made me realize I remember literally nothing about FLCL. I watched the whole thing and I couldn't tell you a single thing that happens after so many years.
Imagine watching this and thinking Ninamori isn't the best girl.
>>291608393FLCL is certainly worth thinking about. I just don't know why we have to apply the morale of the day to it or worry about what its trying to say about anything. I mean it has a lot of ideas but very few of them are fleshed in any greater detail and anyone trying to figure them out just misses the point entirely.
>>291610947FLCL is like sex in the dark. You don’t know what happened, but you know you liked it.
also boner, sex/creative drive productivity/manifestation stuff
>>291599973I feel like my life started to go off course for good when I first realized that I'm never going to experience this.
>>291612015I experienced it as an handsome kid but still got fat and directionless
>>291599973Never trust a woman on a vespa.>>291604408This>>291600486Good post.>sexual abuseI don't know if I would consider it as sexual abuse seeing as Naota enjoyed it or stayed neutral to it all. He only really had a problem with it after the Mamimi didn't reciprocate his feelings back to him.>as he stops hanging out with MamimiHe did stop hanging out but not by his own choice. She left town to become a photographer. He probably would've still hung out with her if she had decided to stay behind.
>>291612960he stops hanging out with her before episode 6
>>291600486Can you even call it a sexual abuse? I agree overall with the post but Haruko and Mamikmi are mostly just teasing him.
