Tsuritama

Tsuritama almost immediately reminded me of FLCL: impressive art, soundtrack, balance of seriousness and humor, insanity underlined with the motifs of puberty and coming of age among other things. While the main characters are not identical, they are both bored, awkward boys who become mixed up with an alien. Tsuritama lacks the thought provoking symbols and complex development that FLCL has, but overall they are both an enjoyable ride on the crazy train of adolescence.
Tsuritama could very easily be described as FLCL with fishing: bored, sullen boy living an everyday life gets mixed up with someone who claims to be an alien and then weird stuff starts happening. Also, mind control and humorous government agents.
