Is there a FLCL (Fooly Cooly) manga out there?, 'cause I just watched the entire run on Cartoon Network, and the six episodes don't explain everything, like the eyebrows.

The manga ended at two volumes, so i don't think it explains much better in the mangas than in the anime °_^

Yes, there is a Manga, and if you go to barnesandnoble.com you'll be able to find it. However, there are only 2 volumes, and don't be looking for Furi Kuri to make any sense...It's not supposed to, and so many plot lines and crazy things are introduced that 6 episodes is not enough to explain it, so you kinda have to use your imagination...However, the series kicks ass anyways, and The Pillows are the best band ever. Hybrid Rainbow is my fave Pillows song, in Episode 2, "Fista", or "Fire Starter". GOHAN WA SUGEE DESU!!!!!

FLCL was self explainitory. You just have to watch it twice. The eyebrows I'm not sure about. I think they represented man-hood. Haruko is an alien searching for the ultimate power in the universe, some pirate guy named "Atomisk"? or something... I forget. She tracked it to earth and knew that it was in someone's head. She had to hit Ta-kun on the head to get it out. Atomisk was fighthing part of the machine that was trying to take over Earth (the hand). Haruko wasn't there to see it fight. After the fight, Haruko thought the Robot (actually Atomisk) for the machine trying to take over the world. So she hit Atomisk over the head and broke him. Atomisk become the robot maid.

Oops... didn't finish... Since Atomisk was broken it needed Ta-Kun to become whole again. Like at the end. That's when Haruko finally realized that the robot was Atomisk and was really pissed at Ta-kun, because he had the energy of Atomisk that she had been looking for. Right before Atomisk (Ta-kun) was going to kill her, he stopped, because he liked her. Then Atomisk left.

Another thing... The other girl... Masami? or something... I don't remember... I suck with names. She was homeless. We learn that because Ta-kun says she smells like cigarettes and she says she didn't smoke that day. And when she went to Ta-kuns bakery to get bread to eat. We know she's psychotic because she burned down her old school.

The other people were humans trying to stop the alien invasion. The alien invader was inside Ta-kun's head along with Atomisk. Maybe they were fighting in there. I dunno. Pieces of the alien invader kept coming out of Ta-kun's head and Haruko kept waiting for Atomisk to eventually pop out, which is why she stuck around him all the time.

What else is there to explain... I don't remember... mail me if you have any questions.

the eyebrows are easy to explain (dont know if it was mentioned cause i didnt read anyone elses replys) they basically stop the things growing from there peoples head. evidence 1: "eyebrows"guy (cant remeber his name) says when hes in the big pipes says something about: "you wont be seeing her again but just in case" . evidence 2: when haraku (dont know the spelling) says that spell thing in ep5 to get the sling shot thing out of his head he syas "owhat are you doing. N-no, My eyebrows. If I don't have my eyebrows..." everything you need to understand the series is there in the anime you just need to look for it, nothing is givin directly.
