looks like a fun and good anime but it has 24 episode and it will take around 4,5 months for it to fully be out. So my question is do you recommend I watch every Sunday or wait until all episodes are dropped and watch with no cliffhanger depression.

I think you should watch it. I hate to wait but it's more exciting this way.

Now mind you this is coming from someone who has watched one episode so far, but honestly I wasn't that impressed by it. It felt like all style and no substance, and the style wasn't even that great.

That said, it's a pretty polarizing series, so I'd check it out for yourself and see what you think after a few episodes.

and when they fight in their stupid looking robots
the girl has to go doggy style while the guy links behind her

I think I saw the trailer a while back and then put it on my PTW.

I'll check it out when it's done. Preferably avoiding discussions/spoilers about it until then.

I would say yes, at the moment i'm liking it, be careful with the amount of people who will say no because there are only two or three "ecchi" scenes.

Really, I'd say wait till all episodes release, or at least when quite a few episodes come out so that you don't have to wait weeks in order to come to a conclusion


But really, this is probably your best option

N O P E. This is the last anime that will turn into a harem. But it's not for you since you are head over heels for REM. This anime already has its own version of REM but she doesn't even have the advantage of having horn(s).

I mean from what I've seen so far, it's pretty shit. Dropped it. That's subjective of course. If you like what you've seen so far then yeah go ahead and watch it weekly. I find watching new anime weekly better than waiting just because once it ends I end up ignoring it and start watching the anime of the next season.

I think yous should watch it is pretty interesting especially how the "riding" sequence works ;) but if you dont mind mecchas (I know its a turn off some people) its a good watch.

Don't listen to anyone here. They aren't you. If you want to watch it, go watch it. Taking someone else's opinion on it and then leaving it because of that opnion could end up causing you to miss an abundance of anime you'd probably love and cherish yourself. You be your own judge.

TLDR; Fuck what everyone says. If it caught your eye go watch it.

Personal episode ratings:
Episode 1: 3/5
Episode 2: 2/5
Episode 3: 3/5
Episode 4: 4/5
Episode 5: 5/5

Which also reflects the overall score of the anime in MAL after each week.

You sure have soft spots for those nice, caring girls. REM wasn't even nice from the beginning unlike 015 so I think it will be harder on you. Cannot blame you if you sense it and not watch it.

Well, it has a lot to do with demography than hate. Because you are looking at stories directed towards the male demography. A lot of stories directed towards the female demography focus on childhood romance as the end game compared to the male counterpart where the woman coming to the male's life much later becomes the end game. It probably has a lot to do with how male vs. female psychology works in general, particularly for Japanese people I guess.

*rolls eyes*

It's not a harem.

*Ichigo has her own love interest to worry about (Goro) So if she survives, she definitely won't be alone.

............honestly I can see Zero Two either dying or disappearing....because that happens to "the mysterious girl from ??" quite a bit.....

Where did you get that from? 015 only has feelings for 016. They might as well use 056 as a consolation prize, but the indication/hint was from 056's side and not from 015's.

Interestingly, 015 has a whole appreciation thread for her character in 2ch with over 400 posts with very few fans writing against her unlike the in case of 002. It's the same thing that happened with Rem and Katou in the past who eventually became more popular.

The picture below is one of the most used pictures in 2ch discussion over the last week.


002 is more popular in MAL than in other places. At least if I see the discussions in 2ch and also the reviews/polls on anikore, bangumi etc. 015's popularity has been increasing since episode 3 and now has 57-43% in bangumi head to head compared to 35-65% in MAL. Counting the favourites, 002 is overwhelmingly winning against 015 in MAL.

That's where your two posts contradict. The probable interest is from 056 (indicated when he stopped halfway from consoling her) and not from 015.

Give it the three episode treatment, that's how I got into it. I enjoyed the first episode enough to watch the second, the second almost ruined it, but had enough little bits of good for me to watch episode three, which sealed the deal for me. Now how you watch it is up to the amount of free time you have. I've been watching episodes as they come out, because I have school and can only watch in little chunks, but when schools out, I prefer to marathon.

How can it turn into a harem when a pair of boy and girl are needed to pilot a Franxx ?

Franxx is a Multiple Couples show, like WORKING, but with Mechs and Action. Multiple Couples are much better anyway.

You do know there's Zorome, Goro, Futoshi, and Mitsuru in that show, right ? Miku is compatible with Zorome, while Kokoro is compatible with Futoshi. Gorou will probably end up with Ichigo following the Ef the first tale Visual Novel ending, where the girl madly in love with the 1st male protag then ends up with his best friend instead since the guy he loves only loves another girl as a romantic interest.

2 girls liking the Hiro in FranXX is not considered a Harem, as that requires 3 girls or more.
CoolitzHubertXVIFeb 12, 2018 7:11 PM
I am someone that would like to watch a Harem Anime with 2 male leads that each gets their own harem company of girls from the main cast. For example, 1st male lead gets a company of 4 girls and 2nd male lead gets 2-3 girls etc.

advise : if ya really want to enjoy specific show from this medium (anime), just watch it without expectations, score, or reviews because ya know different person different taste.... find yer own taste on this medium much better rather than copypaste someone else taste

If you like mecha and ecchi then you're good to go. I'm watching it and it's.. something. I'm not praising it, but it's just okay-ish for me. I'm not a fan of mecha and especially Darlin in the FranXX's piloting style, but I can deal with it. I'll watch it to the end. The characters, at least Zero Two are interesting. I don't know if you'd waste time on this anime... but since it's still airing, I don't think 20 mins per week is going to waste any time.

I'd say wait for the first 12 episodes. You might end up liking it and be willing to wait it's last 12 episodes out.

Let it finish. If it ends good then go for it, if not then don't. The series going to be here only. You can wait. It's kinda enjoying if you ask me. But you have to wait 4 episodes for it to get good.
But yeah it is more than just ecchi/mecha after episode 4.
