Last year, FLCL was announced to be receiving not one but two sequel series. The six-episode anime series serves as a coming of age tale complete with great rock music, giant robots, and aliens. During the 2017 Anime Expo, held on July 1-4, 2017, a brief trailer for the upcoming sequels premiered.

The official synopsis from Adult Swim reads:

“In the new season of FLCL, many years have passed since Naota and Haruhara Haruko shared their adventure together. Meanwhile, the war between the two entities known as Medical Mechanica and Fraternity rages across the galaxy. Enter Hidomi, a young teenaged girl who believes there is nothing amazing to expect from her average life, until one day when a new teacher named Haruko arrives at her school. Soon enough, Medical Mechanica is attacking her town and Hidomi discovers a secret within her that could save everyone, a secret that only Haruko can unlock. But why did Haruko return to Earth? What happened to her Rickenbacker 4001 she left with Naota? And where did the human-type robot ‘Canti’ go?”

FLCL 2 and 3 are scheduled to air on Adult Swim in 2018.
