I've always felt this anime was instantly nostalgic and its themes and portrayal strangely familiar. After watching it again about a decade later I now think its because it reminds me of dreams. Strange and seemingly doesn't make sense but makes perfect sense at the same time. Everything in the show from the baseball themes, older unavailable women, and robots is a allusion or metaphor just like how plots of our dreams are.
This is a late reply and my take could be totally wrong, but I think one of the great things about Fooly Cooly is that it parodies a lot of other popular anime with similar tropes, but in a very wholesome way and with a clear love for the material it both borrows from and pokes fun at in the same instance.
This scene always gives me chills. I know how it feels to face something bigger than yourself for the first time, uncertain. And, despite that, swing with all your strength and ignore the fear. And it's a homerun. This show is amazing.
What I take from this is that sometimes in life you have to stand up and face problems yourself, you swing your bat, and the decision could impact those around you. Sometimes having someone help you makes it easier for you to do something that would be near impossible alone.
Watermelon or like a panda with a mean face or like sandals with pressure points drawn on them or the smell of a blackboard eraser or a Sunday morning when you wake up and it's raining
I know that this was just a collection of stuff Tsurumaki thought was cool, and FLCL isn't supposed to have any deep meaning, just a lot of cool things not meant to be analyzed - in a way an anti-NGE - but no anime is more meaningful to me. NGE with all its turbulent emotion doesn't bore as deep into my heart as FLCL. Nothing does. Everything about it: the animation, the dialogue, the colors, the music. It's like some kind of audio-visual symphony.
It definitely had a meaning. Great artists understand that saying how they interpret their work can make it uninteresting to their audience. Rewatching this show, it’s obvious that every episode has tight thematic elements that evolve into a much larger story about adolescence. I just wouldn’t take tsurumaki’s quote to heart because no one wants to make a pointless work.
Thats why i come here to rewatched this anime like i did when i was a kid all those years ago, and this video is probs one of the first i watch on youtube almost 11 years ago
Oh wait a sec, when Haruko takes the bass in Naota's head and callas it his "bat" It's a reference to an erection, that's why the girls watching bleed, then when he swings the bat is a reference to an orgasm, helpes by Haruko, lol I now understand it.
Late but basically what the guy above me said. She realized that Naota still had a chance to release Atomsk, and getting it out of him is easier than nuking Mabase to hell then continuing to search elsewhere

I like to imagine that Naota learned how to play haruko's bass.

In other words this anime is one hell of a fever dream.

No scene in any anime I've ever seem has left me feeling THIS good.
2:30 ... shivers
WHOOPS what are you doing in this old video.

One of my favorite scenes from my favorite anime :)
Fluenze right!!
アニメで最も好きなシーン。
クレイジーサンシャインの親和性が最高👍
One of best scene and awesome soundtrack until now, 2024.
No matter how many times i watch this.. always gets goosebumps😆😆😆
This is my favorite scene .It is so well drawn.
The anime is so typical of Gainax, robots, people in control center, rock&roll, and boyhood psychology, so random
What makes it so good
Watermelon
or like a panda with a mean face
or like sandals with pressure points drawn on them
or the smell of a blackboard eraser
or a Sunday morning when you wake up and it's raining
Interesting how all of those women bled from their noses seeing naotas bat.
Anyways this sense makes me shiver with pride.
フリクリはマジで神だが特にこの4ラストのクレイジーサンシャインの流れは名演出過ぎる

"flcl isnt supposed to have any deep meaning" couldnt be more wrong

歴代アニメで1番好きなシーン
i like this scene
since this clip includes the whole song,
you might want to skip near the batting scene 2:08
This is quite possibly the most elaborate and vivid ,yet subtle, allusion to an orgasim in any anime.

03:11 nice scene :D
chills
god I love flcl
@NekoJay1 if you just listen without viewing the part where Raharu was taking out the guitar, it sounds erotic.
Haruko is really funny XD
They asked for it!
she could of just let the whole town get bombed and her goal would of been met, but she came back for Naota but why?
Late but basically what the guy above me said. She realized that Naota still had a chance to release Atomsk, and getting it out of him is easier than nuking Mabase to hell then continuing to search elsewhere
@NekoJay1 Because of how long his bat was.
ハルコさんて、なんか面白い。
nice
