I downloaded this awhile ago and sat down to watch it today. So far it is proven to be very worthwhile. I initially thought the TV series was going to be a drag, but then the last five minutes or so of the first episode completely changed that. Hehe. Has anyone else watched this series yet? I've finished the OVAs and am on episode 9 of the series.

How's the TV series?

I've seen the OVA, and enjoyed every minute of it. Although different ... it was still good and humerous, and I liked the whole Beethoven-symphony plot behind the villain.

I've seen both because...well I have both on CD.

It's all very good. If you enjoyed the OVA, I would highly recommend seeing the rest of it. I can only figure on one ep as to why Adult Swim wouldn't air the series and G4 blipped it out anyways.

So I've seen the human anatomy for a few seconds...big...deal.

Anyways, good series. The way the TV ties into the OVA throws everything I knew about the OVA for a complete loop (hint: Joker).

Ive watched most of the series when it was airing G4TechTv, and I saw the movie when it was aired on Cartoon Network...which I think was the OVA not too sure, but the plot had to do with like reincarnations of famous figures.

Ok, CN aired the OVAs but called it a movie. It really liked it. The Monkey God guy with the extending pole was too awesome.

Oh, do you mean Genzo Sanjo? Yeah, he wasn't too bad. The whole series has been good so far, I've just got to fill in these missing episodes that I'm having trouble finding. I thought I wouldn't like the TV series at first, but after the first episode I really caught on. Haha.

The Tv Series ties right into the OVA towards the end. Its pretty Good Stuff.

Yeah, I really liked that. It gives a really good sense of continuity.

they made it a movie because the notion of a 3 episode show just doesn't fly in the US...

I enjoyed the series alot and you rarely see continutity between such breaks... the story didnt' make sense until the middle. Then, the rest of the story left you wondering whether it was going to end the way it was or will the story turn the other way...

6 is more than three...so 6 week filler is reasonable--isn't that what mid-season replacements are and those summer reality TV shows?

I encourage Cartoon Network to repeatedly play FLCL as much as they can.
