FLCL Progressive: Hidomi
An 14-year-old girl who is initially emotionless saying that social life itself is meaningless and wanted nothing to do with her own life and eventually closed herself off from the world by wearing headphones (that aren’t actually playing music) and she was described as such by her mother as an tsundere. Unlike Kana from Alternative, who is trying to hold on to her adolescence, Hidomi presumably has little to no interest in spending her time in reality. I saw the first episode of Progressive on Toonami when it came out and it was pretty good if not great like the first episode of the original FLCL. Those headphones she is wearing are based off of the popular Axent Wear Cat Ear Headphones, designed by yuumei, from her web comic book series, Fisheye Placeb.
You missed some
ReplyDeleteI have broken this post into two parts, this is Part 1. I will post the second part today.
DeleteThis is gonna be an amazing series! Also, hope we get some more shots of Hidomi's feet, maybe a closeup if we're lucky. :)
ReplyDeleteI had some closeups of her feet in the same episode but I was saving it for the second part of this post.
DeleteAnd also, with the way her mom treats her, I can see why Hidomi would act like a tsundere. I don't blame her, if my mom acted like that, I'd behave cold and distant myself.
DeleteAlso, loved Part 2. :)
I was wondering why her mom is so cheerful like that, by the way, thank you for your response on Part 2.

ReplyDeleteSpoiler for this episode:
ReplyDeleteThe mom kills her with that knife.
Not really.
DeleteSweet. :-D Going to have to watch this series one day.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, you can on Adult Swim.com anytime in the Toonami section. By the way, this season will have six episodes just like the original FLCL.
DeleteYes, so check this show out once the whole thing is finished.
