ECP Flash Forward: FLCL Episode 5 - Brittle Bullet
Guns and robots feature in an adolescent love pentagon
What I watched: The fifth episode of FLCL, an anime series created by Kazuya Tsurumaki and Studio Gainax. The Japanese voice cast starred Jun Mizuki, Mayumi Shintani, Izumi Kasagi, and Suzuki Matsuo. “Brittle Bullet” was directed by Shouji Saeki and written by Yoji Enokido, and was first released as an original video animation on March 16, 2001.
Starring: Mamimi, Naota’s maybe-sorta love interest, was voiced by Izumi Kasagi. Kasagi was not an anime voice actress, and this seems to be her only voice role, mostly appearing in Japanese live-action movies, television, and commercials. According to Anime News Network, her hobby is reading manga. Wish I had something more interesting for this one.
