    Tons of Tears.

    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.

    Give it a chance

    I have read so many mixed reviews about this anime. I could list the things I hate about it and just judge it based on that but it had enough things I liked to keep me watching.

    And I actually really enjoyed watching the anime, and it's one of the few that comes to a decent enough of conclusion. I actually like the ending. I think it was worth the watch. But my taste isn't everyone's.

    Great Execution, Thrilling Plot and Beauitful Animation

    At first I was really hesitating to watch this anime because almost everyone i knew told me that it had no plot and the only reason it actually had fans was because of Zero Two. I'm so happy i still decided to watch this anime... The plot is written so well one of the best Sci-Fi Anime's iv'e ever watched. There was not even one single moment where i was bored of this anime and/or I wanted to watch something else. All i could wish for was this to never end while i was watching this.

    However the ending was kinda plain... I know they tried hard to make it a happy ending but personally I feel like a anime like this should have a sad ending. Some people might say the ending was sad but honestly I really don't agree. Everyone was happy, who ever died, died happily. Whoever lived, lived happily so it was not really a sad ending.

    Either way i absolutely loved this anime. I will be re watching 10/10 i would recommend this to anyone who likes a good Sci-Fi anime with a little romance (and nudity...) besides the plot and the waifus ;) the animation was very beautiful.

    I'm not a big fan of dubs but the dub voice acting was great this time the voices sounded almost the same as the original Japanese ones.

    Strong Atmosphere, visually unique and unusual take on a number of tropes

    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

    It creates an atmosphere of deep conflict and in between are some stunning visuals and fight scenes.

    At first I was very skeptical for obvious reasons but once I got past my initial judgments of the outlandish visuals, I was able to recognize the stories true depth. The creator does in immaculate job as far as world building is concerned but I can see how many people overlook all the small details. Each episode raises many questions and you aren't presented with clear answers for quite some time. The story is put forth in such a way that really requires you to read in between the lines and it my opinion, that's what makes it so captivating. It creates an atmosphere of deep conflict and in between are some stunning visuals and fight scenes. It is not without faults but it is expertly written and worth the watch.

    • Trivia
      The Franxx pilots' names are all designated after Japanese words for numbers:
      • Hiro is designated 16 ("hi"-"ro", 1-6)
      • Ichigo is designated 15 ("ichi"-"go", 1-5)
      • Goro is designated 56 ("go"-"ro", 5-6)
      • Miku is designated 39 ("mi"-"ku", 3-9)
      • Kokoro is designated 556 ("ko"-"ko"-"ro", 5-5-6)
      • Futoshi is designated 214 ("fu"-"to"-"shi", 2-10-4)
      • Mitsuru is designated 326 ("mi"-"tsu"-"ru", 3-2-6)
      • Naomi is designated 703 ("na"-"O"-"mi", 7-0-3)
      • Ikuno is designated 196 ("i"-"ku"-"no", 1-9-6 - it's actually a Japanese pun as "ku" is turned around to read "no", just as 9 is turned around to read 6).


      Zorome, who is designated 666, stands out as his name is Japanese for "repdigit", a number that is the same (11, 22, 33 etc).
