FLCL is not going to get any more sequels, and considering how disappointing the followup seasons were, it's a good thing that the franchise is over.
  • FLCL, a beloved anime classic from 2000, was known for its strange and surreal storytelling that defies genre and logic.
  • FLCL’s sequels, Progressive, Alternative, Grunge, and Shoegaze, were largely unsuccessful and received criticism for bland characters and being seen as pointless downgrades from the original.
  • Despite the financial sense behind creating more sequels, it is a good thing that the FLCL franchise is officially over to better preserve the original anime’s legacy and to prevent more lackluster follow-ups.

Adult Swim has confirmed that after the newest FLCL sequels, Grunge and Shoegaze, the franchise is officially over.
