Fooly Cooly, or FLCL...
It's about how the magical power of music and childhood fails utterly until it matures into DOUBLE GUITAR MUSIC and independance, and also it's about the bland being replaced by some totally insane space pirate on a motorcycle basically running around hurting people for the fun of it, WITH VIOLENCE, and then she goes even further insane. It's about how the world will be ironed flat to eliminate all thought, how the universe is expanding to infinite thinness beyond all reason, and the total enemy, the pirate king who desires to own all, the infinite perfect black hole or the singularity before the big bang, sucking up the flatness to ruin it, and both of them losing lets us NOT DIE, and then like... cool music by a band apparently called the bed posts... or something...
....it's only 6 episodes long but it DEFINES HUMAN EXISTANCE... It's cool.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
