Just watch it. This is the only Anime where I can't understand bad critics. It is so so damn beautiful. I've watched it back in 2018. And I finished re watching it yesterday. And yet I don't understand why this Anime hit me so hard. You can not change my Mind that this one of the Best Anime in History.
Love or hate it, it's not another generic Anime.
Pros: -Animation is vibrant, different and some of it takes a bit to adjust to. -The story has a number of fantastic twists on old tropes. -Character development is spectacular at times. -Unusual overall plot and core issue.
Cons: -Mecha pilot "interaction" is unusual and could throw some people before it clicks with the story. -Ending is up for debate, as often is with Anime's -Some wandering on the story. -"Fan Service" might distract / detract from the anime for some

Ok now that I have had a couple of days to digest I think it's time for my official review of Darling in the Franxx.
Darling is an anime that started a little slow and felt quite strange at first, but quickly turned into one of my all time favorite shows. Some of those episodes towards the middle of the show are some of the best episodes of TV I have ever watched.
Unfortunately the show took a dip in quality from episodes 18-22 when too much was done in a short time. (I heard this might be due to 2 episodes being cut from the show) Never the less, Darling recovered and ended strong with an ending that was beautifully written and brought back memories of one of my other favorite shows, "Chuck."
While it has it's flaws, Darling in the Franxx is one of my favorite shows ever, and probably my second favorite love story ever. The story was fantastic and the characters are friends I likely won't soon forget.
Darling isn't perfect but it got pretty close there for a while. I highly recommend it.
9/10 definitely worth a watch or two.

Very good anime overall, I think that or you love it or you hate it, normally you love it, it is very good, great character devolpment with a lot of romance, fights and backstory. I surely can say that this was one of the best anime that I have ever seen. Love it.
