Gaming Rumor: FLCL game coming to 3DS

[duffmmann]

I must be the only one here, who doesn't think Fooly Cooly's humor is funny. Yeah some episodes are entertaining to watch, but I have yet to laugh at an episode.

I don't think it's very funny, but I do think it's amazing, it premiered when I was 14 so it was pretty great timing as I felt I could identify with Naota's sexual tension with pretty much any girl that gave him the time of day. On top of that,I find the overall story fascinating, I must've seen the all 6 episodes like 30 times at this point, and I still think I discover new little things on each play through. I've got a great understanding of the whole story, but I still feel there are aspects that I don't quite fully get. And the manga is even tougher to follow. Let me also say I am not a big anime fan,it is not a medium I have seen much of, but my God, FLCL changed my life, it is by far the best anime I've seen and at only 6 episodes long, there is no reason to not give it a chance, it's all steaming on Netflix too.

Hello,

I am currently involved with an action/adventure game based on FLCL (Fooly Cooly) anime for the Wii U. A separate version of the game is being developed by a different team for the 3DS. We started development on both versions of the game in October.

The game will be published by Namco Bandai. Developing for the Wii U has been very painless, and the console's GPU and CPU have made development a very smooth process to create jaw dropping next gen graphics with unbelievable ease. The game's engine was designed to run cel shaded graphics flawlessly at 60 frames per second to imitate the art style and fluid animation of the show.

We have been actively working with most of the old cast of voice actors from the original Japanese show as well as the English dub to return for this game.

Yoji Enokido, who wrote the TV series, is writing a completely brand new story for this video game. The game will retain all of the great humor that the tv series and manga were known for. The Pillows reprise their role in providing the soundtrack for the game just like they did for the television series. You can expect both new and old songs.

The game works as an official sequel to the mini series. The video game takes place one year after the events of the tv show, and it will feature real anime cut scenes animated by Gainax.

Throughout the game, you can switch between Haruko Haruhara and Naota Nandaba. Haruko can smash enemies with her electric guitar and drive a vespa scooter through the city. Naota can fight off enemies with a baseball bat and rides a bicycle.

The game is suppose to remain secret, and I'm not suppose to tell anyone about this game. But I felt the need to open the can of worms since many FLCL (Fooly Cooly) fans here have been dieing for a true sequel to FLCL for many years.

This game will be your official sequel.

An announcement about the game should be made real soon with official screenshots and a trailer released.

Thank you.

It'd be awesome if this was real, FLCL was a friggin awesome anime (insane as hell, but so epic), if the game was a sequel, hell, even if it wasn't it'd still be awesome just for having FLCL on it, although the english dubs for this one suck tbh.

FLCL was kinda shit. I watched two episodes and got bored. "Random" and "quirky" aren't a good basis for anything. Anime doesn't get exceptions.

What is an FLCL? Is it edible?

Unless you watch all 6 episodes you really can't properly judge it. What seems random at first actually does get explained, but you've really got to pay attention to know what's going on and why and even then you'll need to rewatch the series multiple times to catch everything. That may not be for you, but the series is fat from boring and while seemingly random, actually makes a lot if sense and is pretty damn deep.
