No. Stop it, Toonami.

The original was a masterpiece, and to revisit the concept will only dilute it.

Give the original an HD remaster, re-release it, put it in theaters... but for fuck’s sake, please don’t try to capitalize on the original.

In the new season of FLCL , many years have passed since Naota and Haruhara Haruko shared their adventure together. Meanwhile, the war between the two entities known as Medical Mechanica and Fraternity rages across the galaxy. Enter Hidomi, a young teenaged girl who believes there is nothing amazing to expect from her average life, until one day when a new teacher named Haruko arrives at her school. Soon enough, Medical Mechanica is attacking her town and Hidomi discovers a secret within her that could save everyone, a secret that only Haruko can unlock.

But why did Haruko return to Earth? What happened to her Rickenbacker 4001 she left with Naota? And where did the human-type robot ‘Canti’ go?

Oh dear gods, this sounds like the same fucking thing as the original. It’s just a rehash!

FLCL wasn’t even about Medical Mechanica attacking a small town, nor Haruko the escaped space pirate (or whatever she was), nor any secret powers in Naota’s head; it was about a boy growing up, and all the other crazy shit happening in his life was a cartoony representation of that boy trying to come to grips with real relationships and real situations.
