Oh I forgot to mention. Re: "Why are these kids called parasites?"
While I of course can only assume, since most people seem to be in agreement that everything in this show is symbolic for something, the simplest explanation as to why they are named such is because they're children. Last edited by Dengar; 2018-02-14 at 10:26. |

If you really think about it, most of these children might not even get to the point where they are piloting Franxx. Remember back a few episodes ago and they talked about all the children in the Garden? None of them are soldier/pilots. And all that care does go into raising them regardless. For every single one of these kids, they have had the best of everything, the best food, the best training, the best environment, the best education, everything laid out for them for at least 13-16 years before they actually become pilots. That's a lot of time and resources. More so than most militaries would ever give. And what about all those who didn't make the cut, they can't pay back all those resources and time that was sunk into them. So, while it does seem a bit cold, I can see where he's getting at in regards to them being called parasites because they're children. However, I also have the feeling that the series does have another meaning in mind in this case.

I disagree with you all.

I think they're "parasites" because the robots are alive somehow. They're the hosts.

because the girls are neuro-linking with the Mech during the connection process between Stamen and Pistil. In other words, the Pistil girl becomes one with the franxx.
Quote:
I found some information in another forum. - Strelizia’s beast mode is activated when 02 devours the Stamen (when stamen is nearly dying). - When the Pistil is piloting the franxx alone, the robot interface isn’t actived and the pistil’s body works normally. - Hiro was really piloting Strelizia in episode 1, and He fainted getting unconscious after Strelizia gave the finishing blow, once the robot interface is active and 02 speaks via the robot interface confirming that the connection between Stamen and Pistil was active. It must also be stressed that there is no physical contact or exchange of body fluids during the entire connection process between Stamen and Pistil, and the whole connection process between Stamen and Pistil is made mentally with stamen connecting to the Pistil's mind with the butt controls, It is also important to remember that the Pistil's body remains on stand-by and immovable during the whole connection between them, which is why Pistil communicates with Stamen via the robot interface in the monitor, evenif she right there in front of you. |

Source: http://darli-fra.jp/keyword/ I don't think this is particular to 02 and could happen with any FranXX - we might see it in the next ep with others, for example. Last edited by kari-no-sugata II; 2018-02-14 at 17:47. |

Btw I hear that the Chinese DiTF fans went apeshit after the ban and start reporting everything in hoping that they also get banned (Citrus, Overlord, and etc...). Thankfully they aren't successful, but the butthurt is real. The reporter who reported DiTF to the authority has his/her information posted all over the Chinese internet.

That was during a day or two after the announcement, I think now the threads and the posts on weibo got deleted.
https://tieba.baidu.com/p/5539691226 They are flying over to Hong Kong just to see their beloved wife (02) now, so yeah, you can just imagine the initial outburst to the announcement.
