Junko Miyaji is Naota&#039;s teacher.  Like many adults in the series, she acts very immature for her age.  She&#039;s extremely hyperactive, she overracts to many insignificant occurances in her class, and screams at her class through a makeshift megaphone.  She&#039;s also the frequent victim of the Medical Mechanica robots that sprout from Naota&#039;s head, having her car destroyed twice by both Canti and the Terminal Core.

Naota is a detached sixth grader afflicted by the pangs of puberty. He's fooling around with his brother's ex-girlfriend when a crazed girl on a motor scooter runs him over, brains him with a bass guitar, and moves into his house. This pink-haired girl, Haruko - who claims she's an alien - hurls Naota into the middle of a mega-corporation's secret agenda. Oh, and now giant battling robots shoot from his skull. Mix in mind-bending animation and tunes that echo through your cerebellum to top off the trip that will have you falling hard for FLCL.

Naota is a normal Japanese 6th grade boy but when his older brother leaves for America to play baseball, his brother leaves his 17 year old girlfriend Mamimi behind. Mamimi is sending mixed signals and advances to Naota, and he doesn't know what to do about her. But to make matters worse, Naota's world is totally turned upside down when he is run over by a woman on a Vespa. During their first encounter, she hits him over the head with her guitar, which then causes a horn to grow out of his forehead. She calls herself "Haruko" and her presence changes Naota's life to even further insanity.
