“FLCL: Progressive / Alternative”

I received product/compensation in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.

When I was in high school I really liked anime movies and shows, I mean Sailor Moon was awesome. Nowadays I don’t watch that genre anymore but I can appreciate the animation and storylines that go into the new characters and stories.

If you watch Adult Swim then you probably have caught the popular anime series FLCL: Progressive and FLCL: Alternative. While the show originally aired in early 2000, it gained a cult following and since then it has aired repeatedly over the new few years. In 2018, the show came back again with a second and third final season.

Based on the original anime series written by Yōji Enokido and from director Kazuya Tsurumaki, the collection propels Haruko and her yellow Vespa back into action with 12 episodes from FLCL: Progressive and FLCL: Alternative.

FLCL: Progressive/Alternative

The highly anticipated sequel to the 2001 original FLCL, FLCL: Progressive tells the story of 14-year-old Hidomi and her classmate, Ide, as the war between Medical Mechanica and Fraternity continues. Now in the form of their teacher, Haruko Haruhara returns alongside another otherworldly being, Jinyu, a gorgeous Chrysler Bel Aire and her yellow Vespa to unleash their hidden potential. FLCL: Alternative, the third and final season centers on the misadventures of 17-year-old Kana and her friends, Mossan, Hijiri and Pets. Living a seemingly normal life, the group’s lives are flipped upside down when Mecha falls from the sky and arrives with the guitar-wielding Haruko Haruhara. Once again determined to take out Medical Mechanica, Haruko works to awaken Kana’s N.O. channel before the relentless iron takes over the world.

“During its twelve-week run on Adult Swim’s Toonami, FLCL was #1 in its
timeslot, and garnered a huge fan following,” said Mary Ellen Thomas, WBHE, Senior Vice President, Originals, Animation and Family. “We think both the fans and newcomers are going to love the Combo Pack with it exciting behind the scenes extra content, in addition to the final 12 highly anticipated episodes from the fanatical series.”

To celebrate the release Funko even came out with a FLCL – Haruko Pop! Vinyl Figure. Perfect for any fan and collector!
