| I couldn't go 1 hour without being spoiled with screenshots about kokoro and mitsuru's wedding. I was planning to watch this episode just a few hours before the release of episode 19 but f*** that. You guys are the worse than diehard GOT fans, I haven't watched the 3 last seasons of GOT and have no idea what happens there or who died. The internet is truly an dangerous place. Anyway, back on topic. Alpha must DIE >:@ |
| HOLD THE FUCK UP! I just thought about this--do the female characters not get periods? I never even thought of this and it sounds stupid but missing/irregular periods is pretty consistent with being pregnant. And if the show is continuing to foreshadow that Kokoro is indeed pregnant, I'm curious to what the implication will be for her and rest of the characters that she is. |
| Oscar and Andre deserved better |
Starmiya said: If its such a big deal i dont get why are books about baby making and weddings just randomly lying around lol Also its kinda stupid to erase the memories of just 2 members and not everyone. They weren't really lying around randomly. Kokoro found the baby making book in an abandoned village where humanity lived in the past while the group were on the beach. The wedding one was from a picture book that Zero-Two got years ago, she preserved that memory by eating that picture book and she drew it out. Have you forgotten about that? |
| Not surprised by the hate this episode got. Truth be told I am seriously eager to find out where the story is going to go from here. Probably they will end up siding with the Klaxasour princess. |
 |
| Is it too late to start rooting for the Klaxxaur's cuz seriously the ones in charge in this series are worse than scum. Also looking forward to the episode where Hiro and 02 slaughter the nines (plz happen). |
| Wooow, I didn't expect that!! Will Darling in the Franxx have a plot twist? Of course! |
 |
It was at the point where I enjoyed the arguments more than the damn show. That shit just dragged out just to end up exactly like what so many people claimed it to be subverting. |
| Legit, what the fuck was this episode. FranXX can't decide what it wants to be or what story it wants to tell so it throws in episodes that are filler content like this one to stretch runtime and hide the fact there's no substance. And that lesbian reveal is one of the most random things this show has thrown out there in its runtime. No buildup, no climax, it just happens and then isn't touched upon for the rest of the episode. I'm fully expecting this show to have a trainwreck of an ending, as the poor direction is becoming more and more apparent each episode. |

| 60percent in this forum talk about episode, 40percent shitposting. I see Franxx is popular. |

| Futoshi continues to be pathetic as ever, no backbone, can't stand him. Papa and the nines total douches too, interesting nonetheless though. Really feeling for Nana and the other dude who lost his emotions or doesn't have any(clearly does since hec cares) |
| Jaywalker. |
| For those who think the KokoxMitsu thing is just a side story is delusional. It had to happen for the kids to realize shit was happening. Not to mention I feel like if they realize Kokoro is pregnant things are gonna go sideways. Revolution is in the air however. Honestly it feels like 'Papa' and the Nines are the real bad guys, fuck for all we know the 'Humans' might actually be Klaxosaur children, mindblown. Also . . . people do realize this show started before it's manga series right? People need to stop complaining and just enjoy the show for what it really is. And lets be honest it will probably have a S2 anyway. |

| Yes, some PVP scenes. |

Kingson said: They destroy very fast the relation of Kokoro and Mitsuru It would have been better to last longer. Hohoro deserved it... go blonde dude. |
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO  OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO |
| OMG, this episode was great! I am rooting for a rebellion harder than ever before. ronswills said: I agree. I used to think that it would be cool if someone died - you know, to create more suspense. But now I have grown to love all the kids very much. I hope they all survive. I can't handle this anymore... Please A1 Picture.. Please Trigger.. Give them an happy ending please.. Longing4Abyss said: All is not lost. Memory-wipes are reversible. We have seen that before with Hiro. There is a decent chance that Kokoro and Mitsuru's memories will return.Hey guys let's spend like 10 episodes developing this relationship then MINDWIPE! Shit writing. Starmiya said: The book about baby-making was in the ruined city. As far as I remember, Professor Franxx deliberately sent the kids there in hope that they would discover some things they were not meant to know. Franxx is playing his own game.If its such a big deal i dont get why are books about baby making and weddings just randomly lying around lol Jryou said: Welcome to team Klaxosaur, brother! :DIs it too late to start rooting for the Klaxxaur's cuz seriously the ones in charge in this series are worse than scum. Jryou said: Hear hear!Also looking forward to the episode where Hiro and 02 slaughter the nines (plz happen). |
| Many of my friends used to say that darling in the franxx has a bad quality animation, but after that episode I showed them that the animation is quite good. Mainly that scene with Hiro and zero two among the cherry trees I did a post in my blog about Darling in the franxx animation, please check it! Click here to go to the blog |
nyanko-sensei749 said: Why do you think the (the creators) consider the issue "resolved"? It didn't look resolved to me. Ikuno confessed her feelings and Ichigo did not immediately reciprocate. That doesn't mean their story is over. It is possible we will see their romance and/or love polygon develop further. Okay so they were obvious about Ikuno x Ichigo for a long time, yes, but i'm actually kinda pissed because i feel like Ikuno's character development itself was really rushed, as well as Ichigo's response and their past between each other. In fact, the whole problem was sort of exposed and solved into a neat little 1 minute package wrapped with a bow and then they immediately moved onto wedding plans and the rest of the episode. i was worried this would happen since they spent entire episodes on other's character developments but with only 6 episodes left, i suppose they have to hurry stuff along to make room for other things. still i wish we could've connected with ikuno's pain, jealousy, and longing a little more like we did with the other characters at the beginning :/ it's really a shame, especially since ikuno breaks some stereotype molds in anime series but the performance falls a bit flat because rushed. Alternatively, the creators might need to bring this out in the open because one of the girls might die soon... |
| I was hoping for a GoT red wedding type of episode :( |
| Futoshi's judgement for being NTR'd is a wedding priest role! bwahahah! oh how convenitent, when Mitsuru and Kokoro is about to kiss and then the raid immediately happened! okay their memories were altered! looks like everything's going down! and also nice Yuri from Ikuno & Ichigo! and we got to see the past of Nana as well. 5/5. |

| When I was watching the wedding scene, I thought to myself "Aww what a nice scene, I wonder what will happen to fuck it up". Seems like every time a character has a good thing going for them, some asshole comes to rip it out of their hands and push them into the mud. And now we have to wait another week :( Aside from that, how the hell is this gonna wrap itself up in 6 episodes? I can't see it happening without a super rushed and unfulfilling last stretch of episodes unless we're getting a second season. Maybe it will though, who knows. |
Ayame_Best_Grill said: Well said, brother.This also adresses most of the "this story is going nowhere" comments that I've seen so you might want to read anyway. Really, it is, probably just not the way you guys envisioned it... ... You can't have the finale I think this series will have without these episodes, otherise it will just seem forced, pointless, uncontextualised and unfelt. Just enjoy the drama ffs, this isn't just an action mech anime. By the way if you watch the show just for the action the titties and the mechs you should stick to simpler stories, no offense. |
| I counted about six death flags this episode and that spooks the fuck outta me |

firemagnet said: tokidoki921 said: Looks like this episode will be really good. So the APE council were human once after all. And the way they were facing that crowd remind me of a sect. I think the implication here is clear. Somehow, humanity began to search for a way to create immortality. In the process they created something entirely new, a creature made from outside DNA that could dramatically lengthen its own lifespan. Struck by the prospect of genuine human immortality coming within reach, they went forward and spliced human DNA with the DNA of the creatures that they had created. They created the klaxosaur princess. However, everything went wrong from there; humanity's use of magma-based energy rapidly deteriorated the environment, so the plantations were developed as mobile homes in which the newly immortal humanity would live. However, these were limited things, so the human leadership made reproductive sex taboo in order to preserve space for as many as possible. During this time the Klaxosaur princess, otherwise known as subject 01--the first successful splicing of immortal DNA and human DNA--rebels against her creators. Somehow, either by converting other humans or by another process, the klaxosaur princess raises an army and forces humanity into the plantations. All this time, Wilhelm Franxx, whose research was responsible for all of this, watches with increasing desperation and despair as he sees what his research has wrought---his own creation run amok in the world. So he decides to break the system that he helped to create. A number of other notes: 1. That woman with the prototype Pistil suit looks suspiciously similar to 9-alpha. 2. We know the dimensions of the Plantations now, they're stated to be 3km in diameter and a height of 1.2km. The main shaft serves as a magma distribution system with the reservoir held externally and a massive drill intake attached to the bottom of the vehicle. 3.Dr. Franxx's narration suggests that the Klaxosaur princess was either created by humanity or an alien whose DNA was used in experiments to further human immortality. This is the best theory, by firemagnet . Absolute. Zero 1. This is not Evangelion, it is Darlifra... and better. |
