QWERTYFish25 said: MiiyoSon said: No worries man just asking for clarification. Not sure how to separate quotes so forgive me. I will agree with you that anime generally doesn't have the most convincing relationships. That's why I love shows like Rakugo that show these types of complex relationships. To tie it back into Franxx, my problem is that I feel Franxx is not one of those shows because I don't think it goes far enough. You're absolutely right that Kokoro was not obligated to stay with Futoshi and people who keep harping that he was "betrayed" REEAAALLLLYYYYY need to let that shit go cause first of all no he wasn't and second its done and over with. BUT the way the show continuously treats Futoshi as the butt end to every joke the show has still not sat well with me and really soured me on Mitsuru x Kokoro relationship. What I would have really liked for the show to do (hopefully in future episodes) is have him be more introspective as to why she wanted to switch and maybe even confront her and ask her to get closure. He would have felt like a character instead of a punchline and would have been more on board with Kokoro x Mitsuru. I think the same can be said about Hiro & 02's relationship with the show not going far enough in these relationships because I think it uses some of the same "true love" tropes other shows use. I think it would have been more interesting if instead they didn't have the backstory where they actually met prior to the present, we found out that the kid 02 met when she was younger died. I think that would have made for more interesting dynamic. That's how I see the show anyway. Maybe there is stuff I missed but I can't sit here this show is that revolutionary ya know. Edit:Never mind I figured out how to separate quotes XD I've noticed that with anime. They go for low-hanging fruit when it comes to comedy, be it gays, trans people, over weight people, etc. Though they may plan to take this more seriously in the coming future (I think Futoshi blames his weight for Kokoro not wanting him) it's kinda getting dragged down by constantly using his pain as comic relief. Much like Kokoro opened up to Mitsuru glasses could've done the same for him. Not romantically but at least to develop the two of them. It's a bit implied that Ikuno is attracted to Ichigo, they can respect that while still showing the human side of her consoling Futoshi. Haha "Implied" he says XD LOL Seriously though I'm hoping they do take Futoshi more seriously too (although at this point I highly doubt it) cause as of now, using him as a literal stepping stone for other characters to get development and then not use him for anything else is not good character writing. |

I said implied for my sake because it's been hard to remember she is in the show. So I'll admit I've been ignoring her and Ichigo's interactions. |

I gotcha it was just funny considering the show hasn't been subtle about it ya know. |
| Assuming it gets out. No one ever knew what happened to Saki and Haruto in valvrave. Literally it was never brought up in anyway. |
| I had to catch up to read all the new posts, pretty hilarious 😂 people saying that haters are fat because the character is fat LOL. If the character were a skinny black dude you would assume everyone is also skinny and black right? Gotta love retard logic. Ps last time I checked this was a mecha action anime, I guess last few episodes gotta have some NTR between all side characters minus the stars of the show amirite? Why go to hentai sites and watch NTR when this show provides for all your fantasy needs :) |

I need to know! |

Hiro may not stay with Princess, but Zero 2 may... the OP hints it. ...maybe bittersweet |

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 I know Kokoro is the farthest thing from flat and do you know how supporting a baby works? Breast size is not a major part lol Remember anime doesn't always respect body proportions. Plus there are some of the tiniest women in the world having babies with no issues while heftier women are dying in child birth. Given the world they're in I think birth complications are the least of their concerns. |

DeepEyes7 said: Too many people idolize these anime characters so when they do anything that doesn't stroke their self insert of their view of "graceful" or "pure" they go apeshit.I thought that after the latest chapters some people would like her more but it seems that some people still hate her... I would like to see a poll to see how are the bets XD |
DeepEyes7 said: Hardly, she still made a ditch effort to start something with Hiro. If Futoshi freaks out a bit or shows some anger, I wouldn't blame him, I'd understand his pain. That doesn't make Kokoro wrong or give him the right to shun her or hate her but sometimes looking like an ass is part of good character development. QWERTYFish25 said: Too many people idolize these anime characters so when they do anything that doesn't stroke their self insert of their view of "graceful" or "pure" they go apeshit. I see... Well, I would want to see if more people "forgive" or "condemn" her XD I'm more worried about Futoshi in the next chapter, please, please, please, don't make a commotion if Kokoro gets pregnant, if you do that your chances of redemption will be null and you will be the fat comic relief that everybody seems to want you to be u_u... Look at Ichigo, she dealt with her broken heart like a champ! A character from a scifi I adore was a former alcoholic who abstained from drinking. But during the course of the show he had a quick relapsed during a dire crisis (a reminder of what he considered a massive failure on his part that led to the death of one of the few people who cared for him as their own). It happened again sometime after he was victimized and nearly lost the respect of EVERYONE he knew at that point He gained that respect back since it wasn't his fault (telepathic manipulation) But he later found out he had been hit with an azimoth that rendered him completely incapable of exacting justice against a person who had been responsible for him losing someone he developed an interest for the first time in a long time. Eventually he recuperated but not before his drinking kept him from preventing a battle between two factions (one of which was controlled by an alien force unknown at the time). What I'm saying is that Futoshi can go through the motions, it's a rough time for him, I know personally how it feels to lose someone you put a ton of stock in and saw as "the one" at times. On some level he has accepted he is no longer Kokoro's partner but he is letting it eat away at him. I suspect it has manifested as a type of self-hate through trying not to eat as we seen in episode 16 it could grow into something more sinister with time. Perhaps he'll consider reporting them to the 9s or the two caretakers should he find out directly or implicitly. |

WhiteRabbit2319 said: I just remembered the part about the gray hairs 002 spotted on one of the girls then remembered why "solid snake" became "old snake". Chances are these kids are engineered to live a certain time. Seems they don't have much use after puberty and it is possible that the two care takers might have either had their life spans engineered back to normal or the red-haired girl may be a special case. Or she may just naturally have vitiligo and feels bad about it. Who knows? But now I feel said.QWERTYFish25 said: Don't mind him he has trust issues...but then again, so do I. So I guess that's not it. Same here but this is just a beautiful thing. Honestly it makes me wonder if they will run away but I doubt it. It's a very odd anime by off I mean with the whole franxx and the children not knowing of the outside world. (Sorry when I talk I talk alot) |
| Another exciting episode! It surprised me when Mitsuru and Kokoro did the deed as well as Hiro developing horns. Plus that cliffhanger at the end and the appearance of the Princess of the Klaxosaurs. Cannot wait for the next episode! |
| Love how they make the show interesting again. |
 |
| I still love you guys even tho we hate each others ideas but I still think she a hoe and deserves death :) ps if you wanna read a REALLY good manga check out Jisatsutou |

| So this anime is kind of going through all the stages of their life. First they were a bunch of kids, then the stuff with puberty, in the previous episode it was them having to take care of themselves and now this episode is about making babies. There's so many unresolved plot points right now. I hope 7 episodes will be enough. |
 |
| So all the drama with the kids just distracts from all the stuff with the Klaxasaur princess. The "people" that were there weren't even human. Also Papa said at the end that he would fight them with their own creation. So I'm curious as to if the "humans" are really humans or not. I remember a couple episodes ago when they defeated a klaxasaur a human like being came out of it. I feel a huge plot twist coming real soon. |

sharing the amazing fact!   We must protecc Kokoro!!   ctto!!  |
   |
| I don't know why Kokoro has so many hates which I saw in anime community. Its only the natural instinct of human to reproduce, even Papa doesn't teach them how its done... which means Kokoro is more intelligent than anyone else in the anime. Anyway, must protecc Kokoro ~  |
|
| Actually, I have a theory that the 'heart' of the Klaxasaur is a human fetus. (That's what it looked like when they all gasped and said something like, 'oh that looks human!') So... what this means for Kokoro or if it has something to do with why sex/pregnancy is forcibly removed from humans remains to be seen. |

Well yeah, normally a character needs to reach rock bottom to redeem himself, I just don't want the drama to continue u_u... But if they really want Futoshi to reach rock bottom there is still ways to go u_u... I think that I won't like the next chapter either u_u I wish anime could learn to multitask. We don't need a full episode of angst to push a character's having a hard time. It's like with the food scene they could've easily just shown him wallowing in his food being extra quiet and then offering it to another teammate but they had to foot the pipsqueak in there too. |
| I was trying to figure out the roommate situation and here's what I could pick up from scanning back through the prior eps: -Hiro (bottom bunk), Goro (side bed) -Zorome (top bunk), Futoshi (bottom bunk), Mitsuru (side bed) -Miku (top bunk), Kokoro (bottom bunk - after looking at the screencap so many times I finally realized they were in this bunk) -Ichigo, Ikuno - Not sure about the setup -02 (single) |
 |
| I want more K-Princess scenes.... especially her soft side. If only UFOtable animated the final fight scenes of Princess vs papa and others... that would be beyond epic. |

Anyway, must protecc Kokoro ~ And same I dunno why people are having on her. Is it because of her first partner? It's obvious she only liked him as a friend she never saw him any other way. But for sure she is smart she's at least questioning everything and now every one is thinking about how life began. I hope this goes well honestly. Must protecc Kokoro |
