Talk:FLCLimax

Trivia contradiction
One of the trivia points contradicts itself: it says that s joke was both left in (and dubbed) and left out of the English translation. -Litefantastic 18:45, 11 July 2006 (UTC) - I've elaborated the supposed contradicion and it should be clear now what was meant.

Episode Length
On the template, the episode length given does not include the credits. With the credits, the episode is 30:55. If this needs to be changed, someone can change it using that information. --Gunblade 16:09, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

S-Cry-Ed Reference?
I just finished watching this episode, and when Naota and Haruko are fighting up in the air, they're zipping around like streaks of light swirling and colliding and it just really reminded me of the battles between Kazuma and Ryuhou in the later episodes of s-CRY-ed when they have reached their alter's full potential and can fly easily. Did anyone else see this as well? SeaFox 07:40, 16 October 2006 (UTC)


 * What about the timing? Scryed was 2001, and FLCL was 2000. If anything, the hypothetical influence would have to be the other way around. --Gwern (contribs) 14:44, 16 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Bah! You're right, I checked that too but must have remembered it backwards (S-CRY-ed being 2000 and FLCL being 2001) I think it's more likely they are both refrencing something earlier then. SeaFox 20:22, 16 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Perhaps Dragonball and Dragonball Z? It just occurred to me, that scene is very reminiscent of several scenes from the DB/Z series, especially some from the battles with Cell or Majin Buu. --Dinoguy1000 Talk 20:49, 20 December 2006 (UTC)


 * It may be that this isn't necessarily a reference to anything, just that it was inspired by the DBZ art style. Or, it may simply be that in the style of anime, this is the common way to depict a fight between flying, glowing characters when seen from a distance. Naturally, the first thing people would associate that with is DBZ, because there was a lot of that in DBZ, but I don't think this particular scene was referencing it. To me, that's kind of like saying that any character who wears a red coat is a nod to Vincent Valentine.

Does anyone else...
...hate this episode as much as I do? I've spent the past week and a half eagerly awaiting each new installment of FLCL on Adult Swim (if you could call it "new"...), and I loved them all... until FLCLimax. At first I couldn't decide what to make of it, then after sleeping on it, I finally decided that I hate it, which is a pretty big deal for me. Anyone else here reciprocate my feelings? --Dinoguy1000 Talk 20:45, 20 December 2006 (UTC)


 * I thought it was fine. Medical Mechanica is revealed to be appropriately creepy, and this sort of anime doesn't really have a neat ending; the ending is a lot like Eva's, and I think on sustained reflection that this is as well as it could've ended. --Gwern (contribs) 05:29 21 December 2006 (GMT)


 * It's by far the best episode.. --⁪froth T 08:23, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, it depends. Did everyone die at the end? All I saw was Kitsrubami and Amarao screaming like little kids and other stuff happening, so I suppose they both died horrable and painful deaths. If Kitsrubami died, I would hate this episode, but if Amarao died, I would like it becuase he is a fruit cup. Aaron Pepin April 7, 2007

Removed Conversation?
In this episode, when Naota is riding on the back of Haruko's Vespa after running away, the characters' mouths are moving, yet they don't say anything. I can't figure out what to think of it. Any help, please? Chronamew981 21:01, 13 March 2007 (UTC)


 * I think the conversation was just idle chitchat, without any canonical value. In my opinion, the main focus was not the conversation itself, but rather the fact that Haruko and Naota were smiling and laughing, and apparently getting along like normal people (friends even), for the first time in the series. The voices were probably never even recorded for that part.

Atomsk and Haruko
This says that haruko met her "true love" but she was never in love with Atomsk, she just wanted his power. Amarao said she loved him because he thought she did because he mistakenly believed that atomsk was a man when he's actually a bird. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.219.174.81 (talk) 18:51, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
