The scene reminds me of how Ichigo reacted in episode 14 when she realized Hiro was playing it cool so she'd leave the knife behind and he could immediately embark an being reunited with 02. Only this time I suspect he played off piloting with Ichigo like he was fine, and then immediately set about trying to, again, reunite with 02; Ichigo becoming upset once again at how Hiro played her.

It would be pretty cool if Hiro was the cause of the Klaxosaurs invading Plantation 13 in the first place, as it seems a little convenient they've ended up fighting there. That it'd be a nice parallel to 02, he'd be willing to play the monster too if it meant he could be with her.

Spoiler for preview discussion:

That make sense (more like "Ichigo is helping Hiro" lol redemption theory since she would never do that), but Hiro don't have any way to get anywhere near 02 so I will stick with "Ichigo just want to beat, crush even more mentally or even kill 02 just because she exist and Hiro prefer 02 over her".

Spoiler for preview discussion:

the furore from the beginning and the other team-mates still weren't gung-ho about the segregation. Even Goro whose seen the effects with his own eyes still persuaded Ichigo to let ZeroTwo talk to Hiro

Spoiler for preview discussion:

What did Ichigo see really? Do you mean when Strelizia was about to go full berserk mode? She never saw 02 choking out Hiro.

Well to be honest, I don't really know what she could've seen either unless she was able to hear their audio or something, but she wouldn't have acted at that specific moment if she didn't "see" something happening because that would be one amazing coincidence. I'm sure she would have acted much sooner if she was driven purely by suspicion and intuition.

Spoiler for —-:

I’d like to believe Ichigo is able to be redeemed—so I’ll go with she’s trying to help—cause I don’t like to hate characters, so I’ll stick to the more positive sides until I see it myself.

Ooh.....so that's how Delphinium's "hair" looks without the "hat". Interesting...

[Zangor17]

Spoiler for preview discussion:

So according to the updated page on wikipedia the episodes title is "Hiyoku no Tori" (比翼の鳥) which seems to allude or even be related to the bird Hiro and 02 talked about at the opening of the show. My money is on Hiro and 02 getting back together by end of episode.

...Okay, I let it slide when that Gundam from 00 (sequel inbound) had hair, but why does a robot need it?

I wouldn't be surprise after watching how absurd Kill La Kill is

Also , these customized Franxx reflect how the girl in the main cast look .

This is rather confusing. Assuming it's a delivery, what would be delivered? Hiro? But why would Ichigo allow that?

To be honest I hope they don't have them reunite so soon. Their time away from each other can be used for character development, be it them or the rest of squad 13. Getting them together resolves nothing for all parties involved.

Don't most Mecha have some kind of "human" touch? Gundam seems rife with it.

[Kuroageha]

Spoiler for preview discussion:

I doubt the delivery is intentional.
Otherwise Delphinium wouldn't have that mad face.

[Sacredus]

Spoiler for preview discussion:

People are so desperately searching redemption for Ichigo that they want to believe that stupid theory she would deliver Hiro to 02 that she hates. If she is trying open Strelitzia cockpit it only means that she wants kill 02.

And you’re desperate to believe only the worst of her. Can you please not try to pick a fight here??

[EroKing]

Appalled by the disrespect shown by some of the members on this page towards the staff of the forums and also to those not watching the previews by not following the simple rule of keeping preview discussions behind proper spoiler tags.

I think it is not possible that Ichigo atak 02 just because she hates her.
Ichigo can not pilot without Goro, and he would not let her atak 02 just because she want.

If Delphinium fight vs Strelizia it must mean 02 go rampage or do something against APE and Ichigo received order to stop her

[Ligerleon89]

Some of y'all need to chill out. No good disrespecting those who runs this site. Granted everyone's looking forward to the next episode, but if you're going to be like this, they'll make sure you don't type another comment for the time being if you push it too far. So watch it.

I can't wait for the next episode, although I may not watch this one for now until more episode build up. Just an idea I picked up from those who prefer to watch some episodes instead of one at a time.

Spoiler for My theory:

Personally, I don't think redemption is what Ichigo needs, but as we've discussed at length I don't have a problem with her actions barring the kiss because it was tactically sound. But let's not get into that.

Anyway, the only reason I can think for her to shove her own head in is that's where the cockpits are. My guess is that Ichigo puts her head inside and then opens the hatch, allowing for the manual release of Strelizia, which she did in the last episode as well. 02's beast form should be able to harm her, so it has to be when she's not resisting.

I can't see 02 not trying to tear her apart if she was going against APE orders or trying to horde Hiro, so she has to be incapacitated to some extent or reluctant at the very least. And Ichigo clearly isn't happy about doing whatever she is, but we know that her emotions will drive her when it comes to Hiro.

So I'm going to go out on a stretch here. I think that either APE has decided to cut into Hiro in order to figure out how he lasted so long with Zero Two, because it would allow them to conserve resources (pilots) for future use given that the frequency of the attacks are increasing, or Hiro is finally mutating like they hinted it could happen at any time and you know what that'll entail. Ichigo reluctantly takes him with Goro's help (because he's a bro) and runs but they can't get far and the only place they can go is the Grand Crevice, where Zero Two is supposed to go. The Nines intervene, but the other members of Plantation 13 hold them off, and Zero Two is hesitant, believing that her punishment is to be away from them.

Ichigo shoves her head inside to get at Zero Two and slap some sense into her while pushing Hiro inside and telling her to take responsibility for what he's become, before they hold the line, leaving the pair to go inside the Crevice while they buy time.

Too early for this kind of scenario.

[Twi]

We're fifteen episodes in and there's nine left. This is the perfect time.

[Sacredus]

Just wait with speculations for next episode, it will air soon. Since it will end this arc and start new one, something big will happen and we can't really say what it will be.

Spoiler:

Just wild guess, Ichigo destroys Strelizia in rage, Hiro is going on foot to search for 02, and we will have "alone in wild" mini arc when they resolve their problems.

Or.

They will take over control over that city (it looked as their cities) and we will find some more about world, like dinos were just army created by people inside that city or something.
