“White Summer and green bicycle, red hair and black guitar” – The Pillows

I love FLCL, one of my favorite pieces of anime is the original FLCL; there was so much story telling and so much emotion driven through the plot, in only 6 episodes, which is crazy. I would recommend everyone to watch this.

This song feels like a nostalgia trip from ~ 2007 or so. The guitar just strums in the right way, and the somewhat droning vocals just remind me of a past i never experienced. In fact, it reminds of a the summer of 2007, of a random high-schooler I never met. It’s like that weird angst combined with the thoughts of “the good ol’ days”. I feel the same way when I play Persona 3, I only played it in 2021, but I somehow have such a strong connection to it. It’s one of those weird feelings I just cannot explain.
