The series centers on the misadventures of 17-year-old Kana, a high school junior who spends her days hanging out with her besties, Mossan, Hijiri, and Pets. They live unremarkable lives, until the day a Mecha falls out of the sky, along with a strange woman named “Haruko.” Her plans for Kana and her friends involve the force known as “ATOMSK.” Kana will have to risk everything to decide whether or not to help… like she really has a choice!

Reviews

The final Fooly Cooly asks a very simple question: is there love left on this doomed little planet of ours?

This laid-back alternative is as unnecessary as it is welcome, and welcome's all it ever needed to be.

Must-watch for fans of FLCL and for any extroverts who don't understand their place in the world. I cried my eyes out.
