| I was expecting some Miku focus since her va voiced the preview but oh well, it was a great episode nevertheless. Hiro is growing blue horns.. sure, it is super cute how him and zero two are now the same but i wonder if that will cause bad consequences on hiro, like him going out of control or something.. i hope that isn't the case :( Also i kinda like 9a? Sure he is a jerk but if i understood right they don't feel emotions like the 13rd squad does, and he was raised differently i guess so it's not totally his fault. Even so, he is indeed interesting, not the actual main antagonist but still spices up the plot. About Mitsuru and Kokoro, oh gosh. I know they are inocent teenagers that have been in the dark about this reproduction thing and i can understand where Kokoro is coming from saying she wants to leave something behind before dying but man.. Hachi and Nana just told her they are monitoring them and even so they still did it. Guess they are prepared for consequences.. was is really worth it? Idk honestly, but if they are happy then who am i to saying something. I really really want to see more from Miku as a character and her relationship with Zorome, Ikuno was great this episode when she slapped 9a oh my god she got courage, i was so proud of her lmao! And Futoshi.. i wonder if he is gonna get some development, sure, last episode there was his eating problem but that doesn't really helps me liking more the character or getting at least a bit attatched to him in some level.. and i must say, his "love" for Kokoro is getting annoying, i know he's sad she is with Mitsuru and not him but why does he have to be like a hopeless/pathetic dude everytime they mention Kokoro and Mitsuru aksdhdkfnwkf just.. get over it or at least stay quiet. |

deg said: I do not think we can be she sure of her not being able to have children. It just may be one other lie the adults told her. And I do not think Nana goes back to puberty. They just call it this as in she breaks her emotional indoctrination. the childbirth book have instructions for reproduction lol Mitsuru is so lucky with Kokoro there and wow Nana is going back to puberty thats hot Zero Two does not have reproductive organs then? lol |
haves_ said: Just_Chicken said: Mitsuru is confirmed straight. ol' Mitsuru x Hiro ship is confirmed dead Rather, the second, because his interaction with Hiro is almost analogous to the interaction of Ikuno with Ichigo. deg said: the childbirth book have instructions for reproduction lol Mitsuru is so lucky with Kokoro there and wow Nana is going back to puberty thats hot Zero Two does not have reproductive organs then? lol She obviously has a woman's physique, she identifies herself as a woman and she is attracted to men. I do not think it's just that. Although, we must not forget that she and the nines are not human. |

yeah, that was my WTF moment of the week, i mean, hiro-s horns were a wow, but this...they fucking guessed how to have sex_ damn, i love this show |
| Being a fan is like having a penis. Its nice to be proud of it But don't pull it out in public and wave it in other's faces Kyurem Black. Kyurem White. Together they are Pretty Kyurem. |
| Why are people still bitching about Kokoro? She's the most interesting character in this show or at least one that have seen the most interesting and substantial development. I would rather have this show focus on her and whatever sick social engineering humans went through than some crap about 02 and bland daaaaliin. |
Ii tenki desu ne... |

| I don't know what dropped my jaw harder... this amazing episode, the fact that I completely missed Hiro growing horns or the people hating on poor Kokoro for no plausible reason. |
| That was an amazing episode So it will be Kokuro who will bring first change in Hiro's squad as a human |
| BRAWLERS |
Zero_r2 said: You do realize is not that complicated, right? If you saw the movie The Blue lagoon you will see that once puberty hits a boy and a girl will figure how it works. I mean even the most stupid animal knows how to do it.yeah, that was my WTF moment of the week, i mean, hiro-s horns were a wow, but this...they fucking guessed how to have sex_ damn, i love this show |
| Kokoro confirmed a THOT. Jk jk but seriously...some emotionally intense stuff going on here. Making me wonder what exactly this "Papa" individual is doing to the human race. Also...inb4 SJWs get triggered over this episode with the whole "gender identity" and reproduction crisis. |
DedPandaMay 12, 2018 11:23 AM
| Don't believe the hype. |
| I knew someone was going to have sex in this series just based on the premise alone but I was really expecting it to be Hiro and 02 so props to Mitsuru for doing something before Hiro got to do it lol I'm really expecting one of them to die now, though. I'm excited to see more of the K Princess. |

You should know that Not all NTR hentai/anime, work like (Oh this guy goes with that women, ok. That's what the plot says. No cheating here) It doesn't always work like that my friend. As long as the show ~ show the aforementioned heroine being intimate with another man thus provoking jealousy in the audience by proxy. Is considered NTR for the "UNCULTURED" people. Welp, if you watch too much NTR hentai and anime, you'll understand. P.S I'm poor at explaining (understatement even). I'm open to more flames and ideas. Before I sleep. And oh... I searched the meaning of NTR just to clarify what form ntr people of culture use, by your request. |

 "The universe was made, just to be seen by my eyes." |
| Pretty good ep. So we get the Nines wandering in the place based on Papa's orders. Eventually they find a book Kokoro has been harboring and makes it public to Papa and everyone else. It'll be pretty interesting to see how the relationships between the main cast goes from here know that they know about reproduction. Seems like Kokoro and Mitsuru are the first ones in to make a child if the scene is anything to go by. The Klax Princess is still mysterious as ever, hope we get more of her soon. |
 |
| This was a superb episode. The drama in Darling in the Franxx has been not that great so far, but they're nailing it this time with the subject and theme in particular. Hiro's horn caught my attention the most, until the last Kokoro and Mitsuru scene. I'm loving this development! |

If you self insert as Futoshi thats your own problem. He isn't the centre of this series, he's a side character equal to Kokoro. Unrequited love =/= NTR |
Jaanis said: ok, so how is futoshi cucked? what did kokoro request from him? Being friendzoned implies the girl requiring something from you that one requires from a bf. Sometimes is just undivided attention as in calling at inapropriate times and so on. A cuck is a man that is married with a woman that has sex with others basically but the term itself means a man that raises someone else's baby because the mother tells him is his. It comes from the cuckoo bird habit to place its eggs in other bird's nests. So how would this qualify?they could make a recap OVA of futoshi getting cucked |
| Kokoro lecturing the others about men and women is like the straight police lol. Still thinking the show is quite heteronormative, to a suspicious extent so far. This is getting weird man. I know this is completely different to our circumstances but I still feel odd that a 16 year old wants to have a child. It's not even confirmed that she'll be pregnant but she'll definitely suffer the consequences later. I am interested in the Nine Alpha's squad, I hope we see more of them. |
| God literally everyone other than the main cast and that old lady from the city are a bunch of cunts, literally all of them. Imma need Squad 13 to rebel and just kill everybody real quick |
| “I love heroes, but I don't want to be one. Do you even know what a hero is!? For example, you have some meat. Pirates will feast on the meat, but the hero will distribute it among the people! I want to eat the meat!” - Monkey D. Luffy |
| Great episode. Those guys going to see the princess and asking her to surrender seemed pretty stupid tbh. Especially the guy that charged her. I mean wtf did you think would happen? Just because they have the Grand Crevasse back the klaxosaur would give up? I guess we still don't know the big picture anyway. Also we have Hiro now confirmed turning into something like Zero Two. Annnnnnd Kokoro sleeping with Mitsuru! The whole baby stuff was quite thrilling. However, I feel like this may lead to a childbirth death or something. |
| people calling this NTR is so stupid the pairing is clearly changed since past episodes and Futoshi is even got almost no screen time they building Mutsuru and Kokoro for this moment it's not even NTR since they not even 'dating' bruh, stupid people |
l3aobab said: i hope kokoro dies a_new_dawn said: FUCKING NTR EVERY SINGLE EPISODE. WHY DOES THE DIRECTOR KEEP THROWING NTR AT US?!? DIDN'T HE SEE WHAT HAPPENED WHEN ZERO TWO GOT CUCKED? I mean, a normal human being would come to the conclusion that NTR isn't well recieved. RIP FUTOSHI Kirigaro92 said: Whorekoro confirmed worst girl It's time to stop. Futoshi was not betrayed. What he did was entrapment. He knew the girl was meek and would say yes to anyone. Even him. That's why he didn't ask her how she felt about him or anything about herself. He used her to soak up all his insecurities and then had her promise to stay with him forever which is probably the most selfish thing anybody in this series has done. Well,... tied with Ichigo anyway. It was a choice Kokoro never knew she had an alternative to, to begin with. Futoshi got far more out of their partnership than Kokoro did. In fact, I don't think she got anything out of it. Mitsuru, on the other hand, found out more about Kokoro as a mere acquaintance than Futoshi did as her partner. They have a synergetic relationship that's highlighted with him discussing his feelings about Hiro and her discussing her interest in bearing a child. Things they hid from everyone else. That's what a relationship needs to survive. Synergy. Not white-knighting and being a "nice-guy". What did Futoshi give her? Hiro assumed Kokoro volunteered to partner with Mitsuru out of pity because she's nice and Futoshi responds that he's the most pitiful, suggesting he deserves her more than Mitsuru because of this. She's a commodity to him. Kokoro shouldn't have said "yes" to his proposal, but its understandable given her feeble personality and I for one am proud of her for growing a backbone and saying how she really feels at the risk of hurting someone else. Now its time for Futoshi to mature, and I suspect he will accomplish this well before you children do. |

I can even fking make a thesis if you want me to. (i'm not mad btw) TECHNICALLY/BASICALLY/PRACTICALLY , you're correct by definition In our perspective (something probably non-existent to normies) ~ provoking jealousy in the audience is enough for us to call it netorare. Sounds stupid right? no. Check your sources. I can't fancy my words and probably prove devalued in a psychological sense I won't deny it. You're right. But I'm either side. But sometimes fixed words can still be made to a broader sense don't you think? |

SNDT said: Ryuseishun said: I cringe at the "fuck this teenage drama shit" or "Kokoro is a whore/thot" comments. Seriously, it's really just the perks of growing up for these kids....especially since they were never really informed of the norms of the society in the past. well those kids are growing up but insecure kids here don't, unfortunately... also, if anything, I'm more pissed off at the Alpha 9 dude trying to say that their genders don't mean anything, as if saying their unique identity has no significance at all. In fairness, though, the 9's were probably raised the same kind of environment and thus aren't that familiar with that kind of stuff, either |
 |
Ok... I don't mind you agreeing to such thoughts. Atleast back it up. Haughty people are at you. |
"The universe was made, just to be seen by my eyes." |
| Why is Zero 2 uniform is so different from the other nines? Why is that Zero 2 know about reproduction and thinks that her body is incapable of doing so? |
| I shall know no fear as I am fear incarnated |
| So kokoro and Mitsuri ended up having sex...right? I mean they where both in bed naked. Although their ages aren’t said,by the looks of it they are 15/16 and getting pregnant that early doesnt seem like a good idea. I fianlly got to see what the princess looks like,pretty cool |

Atleast let those people who felt "BETRAYED" (I don't know why, but I know why.) vent up their feelings XD I THINK, it's probably because they tend to put themselves to the character's shoes (which can be pretty painful sometimes) perhaps why they felt betrayed by Kokoro and rants at her xD. I apologize for the inconvenience, perfect human being. We hope for your kind consideration. I completely understand the hate brought to those plebium scums whining. But please be gentle to them. |

tookawaiii said: women reach sexual maturity around 16. From a physical and mental pov they are mature as they will ever be at 16. Men enter puberty later and mature around 18. That is why in many countries the legal age to vote is 18. So technically they could have a baby. But it would be difficult. Kokoro is kinda flat.So kokoro and Mitsuri ended up having sex...right? I mean they where both in bed naked. Although their ages aren’t said,by the looks of it they are 15/16 and getting pregnant that early doesnt seem like a good idea. I fianlly got to see what the princess looks like,pretty cool As a side note in the old days it was not unusual for women to have babies even as early as 12 although in civilised countries the minimum age was 14. |

Ich1go said: Tbh I don´t really get the Kokoro hate... I think she is better pair with Mitsuru. Also, liked the Hiro x Zero Two moments. I do. At least for some of them. They self-inserted as Futoshi who they probably identify a little too closely with in real life and expected Kokoro to remain a pretty body pillow to soak up all of their insecurities so when she actually expressed her own interests and it isn't in the insecure guy with "niceness" as his sole redeeming personality trait (Futoshi) she's a whore. |
