There’s a lot going on in Darling In The Franxx, even only four episodes in, but I’m most intrigued by Zero Two.
Darling In The Franxx appears to have something to say about teenagers trying to understand their burgeoning sexuality, though it’s not yet clear if the thesis is much deeper than “puberty is difficult.” Still, I’m enjoying watching Hiro and Zero Two learn to open up to each other.
Darling In The Franxx is clearly about sex.
Darling In The Franxx, one of the breakout animes of this season, makes the sex lives of teenagers a life or death affair.
