ichii_1 said: lmao Well when you put it like that I'm pissed at the MC as well.Awful, I was expecting something good not this cuck shit. 'go ahead and fuck my girl, it doesn't matter (crying inside)' If this Anime IS 2-cour, though, this pacing makes sense to me and as much as I'm tired of seeing this same slow drama in other romance/relationship/drama Anime it doesn't bother me that much. We really only have the superiors to blame (make that PAPA bitch approve him as a parasite already gosh). I can also get over the fanservice since this show is clearly using sex as a theme. If Hiro doesn't get to pilot with 02 by the next two episodes THEN i'll start to get irritated. The first episode would have been really misleading as far as making me think it was going to be about fighting monsters with some drama mixed in - not teenage drama with a sprinkling of monster fights. Ichigo can gtfo already - you already got rejected, girl, move on. Stop making your partner fail as a result. |
| So here's the thing. They needed to have someone else pilot with 02 for a few reasons. The first and probably the most important was verify that the rumors were true. People can die when piloting with her. Second, is that they needed to show this to the other kids to make it clear that MC is literally the only person who can pilot with her. Third, Hiro makes a comment as 02 is walking off. He says that he was hoping that she'd refuse to go with MC's friend. Hiro wanted some kind of proof that he was "special" to her. Now that he has seen his friend come close to death, he now has his proof that he is somewhat special and has a purpose to live. Basically this episode was lay some ground work for the MC. His choice to not stand up to the adults was the correct one. His friends were minutes away from dying and he wasn't even sure if he could pilot with 02. He made the logical and safe choice with what little time was left. If he put up a fight, his friends would have been killed. Ichigo even explains this a few seconds before 02 shows up by saying something along the lines of "It's my fault. If I wasn't so in my head would that have given 02 enough time to save us?" but then 02 shows up right after she says this and saves the day. Again, If OP was fighting with adults, his friends would be dead. If you want to call the MC a cuck or a crybaby then that's you're choice....but honestly I think it just makes you look like a fool for not understanding what's going on. |

poortier_boy said: You say Hiro can't have a contradictory thought for being a anime character? Or he can't use logic for the same? Or are you just saying people don't have this kind of thought or never act with logic? Are you saying everyone in the world never get up on the selfishness and pride to do something that may be necessary? I don't know where you pulled all these. I am only saying don't compare an action of an anime character to all human beings and saying "Not the first human to have ...." But wte. Each to their own opinion. |
 |
I can say I think the same way. >human character I could compare him to another animal, but it wouldn't make sense. If he's human character, he should act like a human, no? If we ignore some facts about the society (that we don't have much information so far) he lives in... I think that's the way. |

But i would love to see more MC's being rebellious, and just don't give a shit about orders. :/ I just hope it changes in future episode we have 21 episodes left after all. I hope he gets away with Zero Two. That's pretty rebellious and it's something she already has proposed. And I really have no problem with the MC being weak at first. |
| It's amazing how this one episode managed to turn my opinion around, now I'm really getting tired of this bullshit. |

| It need more fights and less shittalkings beside that it´s good btw that Mitsuru finally get some injure he was too selfish and arrogant |
| Disappointed. I understand the situation, the relationship, the angst. But, c'mon man! We're in a battlefield! I'm fine with the drama, but it dragging the progression too much. The characters, I know they want to broadening their personality, but they do it too drastically, even only one by one. Okay... teenager, right? Alright, alright. I'll keep watching. |

If it wasn't for the fact that he was the MC, he would have gotten NTR'd this episode. I'll give this one more episode, if Hiro doesn't do anything next ep then I'll drop this mess. Sigh, another idiot who doesn't know what actual NTR is... So many other morons in this thread alos crying wolrf about NTR. Please show where Zero Two and Mitsuru were banging each other. Now I know why I quit coming to this site... |

| Of course Zero Two injured that poor chump. 3 episode in... yea, this is likely to be a below-average anime all the way through. |

| At least the fanservice is normal in this episode. Hiro's obsesion with Zero Two is forced as ever. More dumb drama. 3/5 |

| RIP Mitsuru. He got wrecked though I feel a little sorry for him. |
 |
| Does anyone know wht the cruchyroll subs translate "Kyouryuu" to Klaxosaur instead of just dinosaur? I mean I guess it makes it sound more sci fi and cool(?), but it seems unnecessary if the Japanese name wasn't implying any kind of proper noun for them. I was impressesed that Hiro made a mature decision to let his friends be saved, so far he doesn't seem like a terrible MC. I really hope this show picks up, though, cause these first 3 episodes have been kinda slow.

i think i can masterbate by watch this clip! |
| Sadly no one died, I thought it would get dark for a second there |
 |
| There was no way they were letting Hiro in the mech whatever he said, so maybe he was just backing down, but that's fair enough if the rest of his squad were in danger, wasting time arguing for the sake of your own ego when lives are at stake is a much bigger pussy move than anything done here. Also he's pretty sure he can pilot with Zero Two, and that all her previous partners died after 3 attempts, so letting the jackass who just ditched his own partner go with her once, actually killed two birds with one stone. Gets the rescue underway knowing Zero Two will handle it, and Mitsuru gets fucked up by a pretty harsh reality check at the same time. Which was obviously going to happen, unless he was somehow better than everyone else they ever paired her with Hiro must know she's focusing only on him for a reason, so if someone else thinks they can keep up with her, sure go ahead and try.. |

| So klaxosaurs have cores. That makes them like the Neuroi in Strike Witches. I was disappointed that there was less fanservice in this episode. |
 |
| I feel the cuck hate in this thread is unjustified. It's clear that standard relationship dynamics don't apply to these characters. They don't even know what a kiss is. |
 |
| Fuck that! I would never let her ride with another man! >;] |
 |
 But in this scene 02 is sad? or is it just a frame? |
| What an absolute masterpiece episode. This literally fixed the big ? we had about the main male protagonist. He literally had 0 unique qualities besides personality until this episode. And yes, I was so fucking pissed when he cucked himself pretty much. BUT this proves that he's the only one that can pilot with her. So it was 100% worth. |
| Regrets are going to be made XD |

| This is what happenens when you get too competitive with each other. You die. Why can't they just be satisfied with struggling with surviving. Also why are they positioned like that wheb piloting? Lol doggystyle is best style am I right? |
 |
| The monster actually scarier than the first episode, if only they tentacle rape the franxx that would be great :D |

| Didn't expect Mitsuru to suddenly become all asshole like. Thought he was cool. Seems like Goro and that big guy are the only cool ones |
| Hiro doesn't deserve to be MC. Fucking spineless piece of shit. They should've just made him a woman character like Ryuko Matoi. Would've been leagues more interesting. But no, they decided to go with the generic shounen little bitch who's punching above his weight. No wonder all the lowlife otakus find him relatable, he's as lame as they all are. Fantasizing a relationship with a girl just Zero Two. Guess what? It rare happens in real life and chances, it won't happen to you. The black and blue klaxosaurs looked like a fat ass tick, the ones I see my cousin's dog has behind and inside their ears sometimes. My only hope is that Zero Two will go batshit crazy and kill everyone in this series. |
| 臭い- |
| Well it's pretty obvious after the first dude dropped pretty much dead after that short fight, and to see Hiro to be not affected by the whole ride at anything sure makes him "compatible" to say the least... and well this sure confirms it, all of the other team members sure have a big ego regard Hiro. Well I did like the development and looking forwards to see what's next. |
 |
| WTF?! Hiro, letting Zero 2 to ride with some other guy is like Hiro accepting and wanting to be part of a cuckold! Hiro's NRT fetish confirmed lol! Well at least, that's because he doesn't want to watch his friends die. Meanwhile, Mitsuru is the type of person to cheat on his partner for an even better one, for more 'pleasure' Mitsuru can't handle Zero 2 just like the others before him, except for Hiro somehow... |

| Ugh, another arrogant jerk. I'm starting to think that she is able to "eat" her partner at her own will. Mutsuki was fine at first, but then Zero Two went "all out" and that happened. Or is it that Hiro really is unexpectedly strong? |
 |
| hiro has some asshole friends. rip mitsuru though |
| loving literally everything about the op lmao my guy minceroll aignt gonna be talking for a while now |
 "yabe." |
| I knew Mitsuru wouldn't just get away with it. On the other hand it look like 02 purposely went all out so he would get wrecked like that, well not like he did not deserve it as long as he doesn't die. |
| Mitsuru go with Zero Two... |
| Mitsuru is an ass and he got what he deserved, way too confident and only believes in himself. Still a lot of innuendos though, letting Zero Two "ride" with another man etc. |

| And here I am beating my head over why they had to pilot their Franxxes in that position, and the whole “no one can pilot with 02 for more than 3 minutes“ is just another metaphor to finishing early. By every episode, it becomes clearer how horny and teen the writers of this series are. Although, in an Anime-esque setting, it works out just fine. |
