[[WMG: Progressive & Alternative take place in parallel universes]]
Both show what Haruko would be doing depending on the actions she took after the original FLCL. Progressive takes place in the universe where Haruko never got over Atomsk and kept searching for him and is still up to her old tricks. While Alternative takes place in the universe where she has chosen to move on and actually try to help people like Kana and her friends.

** Seems possible, though there'd be the question of Hinae and Hidomi have a different last name and Naota never shows up, so it's unconfirmed.
* Confirmed; they're a Medical Mechanica device designed to suppress N.O by suppressing emotion.

** Jossed; Kanda recalls their first meeting and it's clear he's not Naota; it's even noted he has underwhelming N.O powers, in contrast to Naota's exceptional ones. He's probably just a MythologyGag for Naota and Amarao.

[[WMG: Kanda is actually an adult Naota.]]
The hints start to really add up by the end of Alternative, but they're present even from the beginning with him repeating the spicy food/maturity maxim and the fact that his physical features heavily resemble both Naota's and his father Kamon's. "Tsukata Kanda" is likely a pseudonym or codename, not hard to imagine given his government job. It's worth noting, though, that Haruko-- who's stated to know him from a long time ago-- ''never'' calls him by that name. When she asks when he started smoking, he replies at age 17, which would be long after Haruko left his life. It is rather sad that he'd become so uptight in his older age, seemingly to the point of squeezing off his own NO channel, but he does at least get better by the end. One more interesting point is his eyebrows-- though they're thick like Amarao's, they're noticeably ''natural'' looking, showing his true maturity over the old Commander's fake ones.

[[WMG: Alternative is an interquel between Classic and Haruko's first fusion with Atomsk]]
The presense of smart phones suggests that Alternative takes place after the first season, but Haruko retaining her original hair color, along with the complete absence Jinyu, suggests that the story takes place before Jinyu even existed. The season could end with Haruko absorbing Atomsk and splitting into Raharu and Jinyu.

* The presence of smart phones in ''Alternative'' makes this theory unlikely.
