== Amazon a reliable source for a Good Article? ==

Are there any Good articles using Amazon? --[[User:George Ho|George Ho]] ([[User talk:George Ho|talk]]) 23:34, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
: It has been determined that for the sake of referencing of otherwise uncontentious information surrounding release dates that it is typically allowed. Most parts of the industry do not do press releases for release dates and they cannot be sourced to anything else - and this data is, in particular, is deemed reliable.

== Comedy-drama classification? ==

The only episode that did not have serious moments was episode five. Should adding this be considered? You may also want to consider Slice of life as a genre. --[[User:Toonipedia|Toonipedia]] ([[User talk:Toonipedia|talk]]) 16:17, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
: This is not a slice of life genre, but it is comedy, drama, science fiction according to ANN. Though FLCL is not a serious show, it is more of a parody show than anything else. [[User:ChrisGualtieri|ChrisGualtieri]] ([[User talk:ChrisGualtieri|talk]]) 16:22, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
I agree, but it does at least TRY to be seroious (it doesn't pull it off well, in my opinion). If it says comedy-drama on a reliable source, it should say comedy-drama. --[[User:Toonipedia|Toonipedia]] ([[User talk:Toonipedia|talk]]) 12:22, 19 March 2014 (UTC)

It's redundant to have two tags relating to humour/comedy. If you want to add drama alone that makes sense, but comedy-drama itself is a useless addition. The genres as "Science fiction, Surreal humour" alone are more than adequate for description and account for the broad view of critical review.

==Novel table==
Is it really necessary to list the novel releases in the form of a table? In my humble opinion, it makes the article hard to look at with that large gap of space. Wouldn't it be better to just summarize it in text?

SIDENOTE: Once reviews start pouring in, would it be a good idea to split FLCL Alternative and FLCL Progressive onto a single article? Although they are confirmed to being second/third seasons, they seem detached from the original. i dont know how to phrase it. But basically i'm considering it a "reboot" (sort of, not really). If someone could help me out with the words.[[User:Blue Pumpkin Pie|Blue Pumpkin Pie]] ([[User talk:Blue Pumpkin Pie|talk]]) 11:55, 12 June 2018 (UTC)

== Alternative is a “Loose Prequel” to the original and Progressive ==

https://ask.fm/Clarknova/answers/150639396841?utm_source=tw_share_own_ar&shareBy=Clarknova&utm_campaign=ui_v3#_=_ Knowing this, I think the article needs to be reworked a bit to establish that Alternative is a “loose prequel” and not a sequel.[[Special:Contributions/24.228.215.81|24.228.215.81]] ([[User talk:24.228.215.81|talk]]) 08:41, 22 October 2018 (UTC)
