FLCL Progressive (フリクリ プログレ, Furikuri Purogure) is a revival season of the 2000 anime series, FLCL, which centers on the exploits of Haruko Haruhara, a manipulative intergalactic criminal on a vespa and the ability to open portals, known as "N.O. channels" with a guitar, on a quest to absorb space pirate Atomsk. It premiered with an English dub on June 2, 2018 at Midnight ET/PT on Adult Swim's Toonami block. In Japan, Progressive was screened theatrically, starting September 28, 2018. In this season, a personality-slpittened Haruko, con poses as small-town school teacher in the classroom of a teenaged girl named Hidomi Hibajiri and her classmate and crush Ko Ide, whom both gain N.O. channel powers, in courtesy Haruko, and her stoic splintered half Julia Jinyu (who was born from a failed attempt from containing Atomsk).
