Reddit mentions of FLCL Omnibus

This video is easily Digibro at his worst. He made no attempt to analyze the characters and themes, and instead he just ranted about singular problems and issues without context or explanation. He made a passing surface reading and even claimed that this anime only can be viewed with a passing surface reading. I wish he would have scrolled down to my positive review of FLCL Progressive because then maybe he could have seen their are deeper things going on in Progressive. The peak Digibro in this video is that he had the audacity to claim that he knows what FLCL is better than the people in Japan who made Progressive. The great irony is that the evidence he provides to support that claim shows there are considerable gaps in his knowledge. FLCL is a franchise; both novels and a manga were created to support and expand the anime and both made their way to English. FLCL becomes more complicated when you recognize that the characters are better in the novels, the themes are better in the manga, and the presentation is better in the anime. FLCL Progressive is clearly an anime where the creators loved all three just as much as Digibro loves the anime.

​

I do agree with Digibro that the anime was a mess, and ultimately failed in what it was trying to do. What I do want to point out is that FLCL Progressive is one of the most authentic attempts to move anime forward I have seen in a while, and I personally appreciate the effort. There were some really cool ideas in it that that should be recognized, with the hope that creators will learn from this and do better in the future.
