Title: Toonami & Production I.G. confirm 12 new episodes of FLCL
Post by: rtil on March 25, 2016 02:08 AM
QuoteIn 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.

The Pillows are "planned" (https://scontent-sea1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xtl1/v/t1.0-9/983688_1168316843187061_6918124682253190543_n.jpg?oh=091da1ed5af833a04c534c0d2ce4f276&oe=579903ED) to be returning for the OST.

as for the rest of the staff that worked on the original? there's no way.

i'm going to withhold my judgement on anything until i see some concept art, but it's going to be really difficult to create a worthy sequel after so many years, when all the key staff that created the original are now scattered all around the anime industry.

Toonami loves FLCL so i know they are in it for more than money, but I.G. has been a mixed bag over the last few years. hopefully they can bring on some great talent that FLCL deserves. unfortunately, a lot of the most important ones are at Trigger now, busy with other things.

That being said, if they do get the Pillows, then at least the soundtrack will be good.

You wouldn't even care for a robot with an LCD for a face?


But honestly I've got my doubts about this, all I can hope for is zone makes a sequel FLCL flash that's as good or better than the series coming up.
