In essence, FLCL 2 is your typical underwhelming sequel.
Ah, the tragedy as old as time. A popular piece of media comes out and proves to be a hit, both critically, and financially.

The original captured the late 90's, early 2000'…

Much like the original, her encounter with Haruko Haruhara (and her alter ego Jinyu) begins the events of the series. She discovers a hidden power inside of her, one sought by Haruko to retrieve…
