![]() ![]() Though it may have some… Unfortunate Implications, in both FLCL and Kill la Kill, it could be said that getting into a first romantic relationship is a sign of growing up. Mataro: Bitch, don’t try to be all witty! I’ve had my first kiss!Īnd with the idea of “first love” comes the idea of childishness. The “first love” idea seems supported in Kill la Kill, with Ryuko noting, after Mataro steals her lemon (at least in the original Japanese script), “You’re that eager to learn what first love tastes like?” On the one hand, the “sourness” could be a symbol of “first love.” For Naota to accept the drink in FLCL would be to accept an “indirect kiss” from Mamimi, who had been drinking from the can previously. Kill la Kill’s director Imaishi did work extensively on FLCL, after all.īut what exactly is meant to be conveyed in either series is entirely dependent on how the “sour” symbol is understood. So, when Ryuko, the protagonist of Kill la Kill, begins the first episode of her show not just forcing herself to consume something sour, but does so purposefully, without flinching… there’s probably something there. While he repeats his sentiment-“I told you, I don’t like sour stuff”-Naota doesn’t toss the can aside this time, instead guzzling the drink down. However, at the end of the episode, Mamimi offers Naota the sour pop again, and his reaction changes. He claims that he “ like sour drinks” and proceeds to toss the can aside. In the first episode of FLCL, Naota, the protagonist, refuses to drink the rest of the sour, “Lemon Squash” pop that his friend Mamimi didn’t finish. So… I haven’t especially covered this before, but I can provide some Thoughts.įirst and foremost, the lemon scene has been largely understood as a homage to FLCL, a coming-of-age anime worked on by Gainax-the studio that Hiroyuki Imaishi and Masahiko Otsuka left to found Studio Trigger, which is the team behind Kill la Kill. There’s a reason that my hundreds of essays hardly ever mention it. I gotta be honest with you: I’m atrocious at talking about symbolism. You left while the two kept staring at you.Kittyichooseyou asked: I have a klk question, and I apologize if you've answered it before, but, do you find any significance in Ryuko taking a big bite out of an unpeeled lemon in her introduction? Like, was it just meant to make her seem hard? Or like, does it have some subtext I don't understand? Is she ever seen eating lemon/drinking lemonade as a background thing? I've always wondered about this. (Y/N): well I'm all finished here so I guess I'll get going. You then noticed that the two of them were holding hands. One girl was sort of a tall one and the others was real small and cute. You were sitting in the cafeteria just eating lunch by yourself until you noticed two girls sit on the same table you were on. One of the people who were out there was a woman with pink hair as her being dressed as a music conducter. The dust cleared and showed takaharu completely knocked the fuck out. He eventually landed back into the ground and made a crater when he fell. Everyone out there looked in surprise from that as you continued to walk into the school. He swung his big boxing glove but you caught it and slung him really high into the air. ![]() Takaharu: you've got a lot of balls saying that to the president of the boxing club! (Y/N): well to be fairly honest you did kind of bumped into me. Takaharu: watch where the hell your going! ![]() You were walking outside heading to the inside of the school, until someone eventually bumped into you. It was another place that she knew where you were but on one day you would learn more than just that. However, the place you went to was Honnōji Academy which was located atop Honnō City. You wanted to get away from that woman as far as you could. That was something you wanted to forget about. ( One last thing, the roles of ryuko and satsuki are sort of the same like in the stand user reader story). (Also satsuki is a futa and you all read a futa story before so get over it).
