Each season is 6 episodes.

Just watch:

1. FLCL
2. FLCL: Progressive
3. FLCL: Alternative

In that order.

Yes, it is all the same show, even if it looks like a different show.

If it gets weird, just know that it gets weirder...

Well, it wasn't on Netflix or Crunchyroll. *sadbanana*


Edit: that search was for Fooly Cooly. FLCL comes up, but on the progressive and alternative on CR.

Adult Swim probably has it.

Edit: Yeah...

Second edit: while not strictly necessary, I really do recommend watching the original first, it's the best introduction to the special kind of crazy that is FLCL

Found the original on Funimation. Let's see if they restrict it after the first episode like they did to me for Lucky Star and another series. One series they restricted it half way into an episode and said it's for subscription members only.

Well, not really what I was expecting. I was thinking it'll be more like Saiki-K and Househusband. Don't really know how to describe those two shows aside from "stupid" humor.

I would describe it as a cult classic. It has layers. Most of them are humorous.

+1 for gokudolls. It's pretty funny and a bit like househusband in the way you got gangsters in weird circumstances

Quick look at your list. I've watched Aho Girl, and Monthly Girls' Nozaki-Kun. Both were great, especially Aho Girl. That had me rolling. Hinamatsuri was also pretty funny (if I'm thinking about the right show, the girl who had powers?).

I watched a bit of Arawaka Under the Bridge. Can't remember how far I got up to, but for some reason I either lost interest or just stopped watching it. I remember that little girl that was pretty violent, and the fact that the main female character was named Nii-San (or was it Nee-San as in "sister") only because she had "23" on her jacket. lol

Definitely got a good list to look through now. Thanks! I finished a few seasons of some series (Quintessential Quintuplets, Attack on Titan, and a few others), so nice to have some replacements.

Also started the current seasons of Fruits Basket, Zombie Land Saga, and My Hero Academia. Thought So I'm a Spider, So What was done, but another episode popped up.

G.T.O!

I’ve been catching up on Attack on Titan the last week or so.

I only watched the first season when it initially aired back in... 2013? Or something.

So I just threw season two on since it’s on Hulu (damn you ad breaks!!).

I remember liking the first season a lot but the second one felt iffy to me. I just started the third season today and it feels the same.

Maybe it’s the constant cliff hangers and “instead of answering any of your questions we’ll just show stuff that makes you have more questions!” Thing, which feels sort of like a cop out to drum up more hype so people keep watching. And honestly it’s clearly worked since it’s still a fairly popular anime.

But I dunno. I’ll keep watching S3 probably because I’m out of other stuff to watch, but I hope it stops feeling like a slog.

Just keep watching it. It gets better.
