    I don’t have high hopes. After Alternative & Progressive killed it for me. But we may get new Pillows songs.

    Haven’t watched Alternative & Progressive yet (wasn’t a big fan of the original FLCL either so no high priority), but the CGI looks… not good.

    I’m optimistic. I liked Alternative & Progressive on the levels which they were offered. i.e. I liked them for what they were, which was not trying to be the original. I especially liked Progressive’s story that didn’t focus on romance but on friendship. I’m probably far too charitable a viewer, though, which is fine for me in that I often get to enjoy things that others do not find to their tastes.

      Original creator was only involved in the “first season”, all the way back in 2000. Two new seasons were made in the 2010s when adult swim decided they needed to “bring it back” with a completely new director and animation studio. It wasn’t good, and now they’re committing to two more new seasons.

      Most of us agree that all the follow up seasons are non-cannon and a mess. It distracts from what a good series the original 6-episode OVA was.
