We know that, eventually, we must come to the scene in episode 1 where she's at the garden surrounded by klaxosaurs. Though the context of that scene has changed; she's among allies now. Honestly, I think it's Hiro who's going to bite the dust... |

You took away some of the aspects which "rules" us as human, them while we can get some benefits we also get some bad side effects too.

Mitsuru and Kokoro start the new human generation. Dr. Franxx is there to observe it all. There are anime/visual novel franchises that kill the face of the franchise. My avatar is from one such franchise.

So now we have like 3 confirmed OTP couples in this show, right ?
1. Hiro x Zero 2 2. Mitsuru x Kokoro ( Obviously they'll get their memories back, and Kokoro's already pregnant with Mitsuru's baby ) 3. Zorome x Miku ( Don't expect them to flirt much as they're both Tsunderes and won't be honest with their feelings to each other unless if some life threatening situation occurs, and Zorome protects her and confesses how much he loves her in the entire universe ) So far, the only poor people without a romantic partner are Goro, Futoshi, Ichigo, and Ikuno |

At this point I'm solidly in the "yes, it's a mess" camp . Didn't get to see such a glorious trainwreck unfold live before my eyes since Aldnoah Zero (in fact, this might be worse).

Mind if I ask a question?
I understand that Trigger is a production company and some of their series have surprise reveals but what do you mean when you say a anime series has been "Triggered"? Sorry that just went past me. |

Also this isn't an assumption: Episodes like 10 and 19 were trying to make points. The fact that they had virtually no impact on anyone is another thing.

There's no reason why a dystopian tale can't be character driven, but if anything, being character driven is an excellent reason for why Franxx should have avoided making the story even more pointlessly complicated. If you need to focus on the characters you have less time for these kind of plot twists, for foreshadowing and proper development. Add to that that really, Franxx doesn't even have such good characters, or character focused writing, anyway, and it's unclear what the point is. Besides a few isolated good episodes (like 13 and 15) a lot of this show seems either pointless meandering around or the writers throwing everything and the kitchen sink at the viewer to make it look like it's an exciting story.

For example, I just think is a big leap to think the show is somehow anti-fracking because magma energy was mined out of the ground. Of course, lets not forget this show is all about getting the Japanese to reproduce more. Granted, I do think ep 20 is pretty jarring. If the show can end strongly I'm still willing to give it an 8/10 at this point. Its not genre redefining (few shows are) but its been quite entertain for me. This show isn't even close to being a train wreck to me, I've seen far worst anime. At worst, DitF will be yet another promising anime with a weak ending. This is not Aldnoah Zero, in fact the first season of that show was pretty good. Its the second season thats a let down to many people and that has a lot to do with how the characters were mishandled. At worst, if the last 5 episodes of the DitF are a let down then we still got a majority of the show that was quite entertaining to me with characters staying in character and not preforming actions that make little sense like in Aldnoah Zero or even more so in Guilty Crown.
