I don't get the eyebrow thing . . .

But she wasn't having sex with the robot, she was fixing him. Half of the ep was a parody of hentai (the other half was a parody of serious/detective/horror type anima). They wanted to make it seem like she was, but she was just fixing the robot.

If spoiler-enriched AMVs have taught me nothing, it's "WHY?!?! WOLFWOOD?! WHY?!?!"

*composes self*

That, and the eyebrows have some point in the story.

I can't wait for Episode 5. I hear it's the parody episode. Don't spoil it for yourself, or other TDA members (you bastards ruined the end of Bebop for me), and laugh your ass off. And since it was already mentioned, yes, there is a South Park segment.

Just out of curiosity, how often is Haruko(the girl with the guitar)drawn without an exaggerated "anime look?"

On the rare moments they want her to seem serious. Duh.

one episode in, and all i know is that i want that bass guitar...the thing can crush skulls and skid on the road at high speed without showing even a miniscule sign of damage...oh, and i thought it was funny that when she was plucking the string, she was playing it upside-down (a right-handed bass being played lefty)...

oh, right, the episode...uh, funny stuff in the "i don't have a clue of what the hell's going on" type of way...looking forward to see where it goes from here...



[added a few hours later]

okay, seems that i was a bit off with the instrument...given the location of the knobs and the whammy-bar, it actually is a lefty bass, so it makes sense how she played it...what threw me was the logo on the top, which would technically be upside down for a left-handed guitar...


Haruko is a lefty, and this plays into one of the themes of FLCL; for instance, Mamimi is a righty trying to play with the left hand (you can see this in episode one when she was holding the bat). I think Tsurumaki called people who do that 'southpaws;' in other words, "He who conquers the left side conquers the world!"

The eyebrow thing symbolizes maturity; but it kind of contradicted itself because Amarao is in no way mature, which is why it is funny, to me, anyway. o.-;

'Southpaw' is a baseball term. In case any of you DON'T know, it's the term for a left-handed pitcher. Every major league baseball feild is constructed with the same polar allignment, so that left-handed pitchers are always causing the ball to come from the South. I'm serious. My dad is a baseball geek. I know this stuff.

from what i've read over at the toonzone forums supposedly haruko in the playboy bunny outfit is a self reference to one of gainax's earlier productions Otaku no Video. Mind you all this series definately requires watching it at least 20 times to even start to understand anything going on.

Daicon IV, actually.
Which later inspired the bunny-girl from OnV.
