Welcome

During the past few years I've seen fantastic animation series and movies, but also a huge amount of poor clichés. After wasting lots of time and patience, I've found out particularly useful to read synopses and/or reviews at specialized blogs/websites to narrow down my search for new animes. The idea of this blog is to share my thoughts and opinions about old and new animes I've seen (see anime list). Brief descriptions, technical information, trailers and torrents enrich the blog.

Hope you enjoy and comment.

FLCL

FLCL (Fooly Cooly, 2000) put a "?" over my head. Yeah, that's it. I really didn't get it at the first episodes.  I just found myself caught by the OVAs. It's an action/comedy full of insanity and nonsense. During the series, animation itself is changing all the time including references to mecha series, south park, matrix style camera swings, manga streams, choreographed fights, and dialogues with the audience. Seiyuu (voice actors) cast is excelent and characters are actually great and vivid. I don't think the series suits everyone's taste, but I recommend it for those tired with the current clichés.
    FLCL goes around with Nandaba Naota, a normal kid. Suddenly, Haruhara Haruko bursts the scene running Naota over with her Vespa scooter, then giving him CPR and hitting him on the head with a blue vintage Rickenbacker 4001 left-handed electric bass guitar. After that, Naota's world is turned upside down as new things seem to keeping popping out from his head.
