Haruka in that cosplay bunny outfit was nice, and I like how it ends with cats and then a grandmother walking with a barking dog..

I could barely make out what was happening in the end and the artstyle choice for the manga overall just didn't clash well imo. Kind of sad since some of the changes from the anime was a little bit more interesting.

I agree the Anime was more entertaining.

this is the most disappointing thread i have ever read. This manga is full of so many feelings and ideas and though it takes real work on the part of the reader i wish that more people did read flcl and would contribute to the conversation of sharing their thought n exactly what happened and what it all meant

Well, it's over.

Out of all the people who could have adapted FLCL, I feel that Hajime Ueda was the best choice. While I haven't read Qko-chan yet, his work seems to embody the surrealist sci-fi tone which defines FLCL. However, while I love FLCL as a series, there is certainly a lot left to be desired with this manga. For one, that ending was a complete asspull and seems to miss what the OVA was getting at. The sudden and unnecessary introduction of characters also went quite a long way in distracting from the story, and only made it harder to comprehend.

If there's something I can commend, it's how experimental this manga is. You can tell that at every fork in the road Ueda took the story in the craziest, most over-the-top direction. However, unlike the OVA, what happens in the manga is superficially absurd and doesn't appear to have any particular meaning. That being said, I can't really deride this manga to hard. While I would have gotten zero enjoyment from this if I wasn't already a fan of FLCL, it must have been incredibly difficult to adapt a series which was being produced alongside it. That's the equivalent to building a house without any blueprints.
