Kyte posted:A terrible opinion! Why would he ask? In character, he has no reason to think that wasn't just a natural byproduct of riding with everyone's new favorite 0-ni, so there's no question involved. The viewer, meanwhile, already knows it's because the dumbass was poo poo-talking Darling, so again. No new information.

So at least two of the kids are gay now what with Ikuno's little thing this episode and Goro's in the last, right?

That guy was a complete rear end in a top hat who was talking poo poo so she decided to show him his proper place. Considering what he seemed to be doing with his original partner I could only feel so much sympathy for him.

LostRook posted:So at least two of the kids are gay now what with Ikuno's little thing this episode and Goro's in the last, right? I suspect this may be another case of people reading too much in to little things and hoping for a twist that isn't coming. If for no other reason than it involves some plot contrivance to work out. If one pilot were to be gay then they would have no-one to partner with and their old partner would be left with no-one either, so at least two pilots would have to be gay for each other really. And if two pilots are gay for each other, then that means there's two non-gay pilots left over who have no-one to pilot with unless the show introduces two more new secondary characters. Barring that, which isn't likely since the show already has 8 secondary characters which seems like enough to fill out the show beyond tertiary allies and villains, then that would mean that there would need to be two gay boys and two gay girls attracted to each other; or else that two gay people of the same gender would need to be killed in rapid succession while their partners are left alive and come together. It just seems a little complicated for a show that's already laid out that the real power of a FranXX is drawn out when an X and a Y join together. Not when two letters join together. Laying that on thick at the start of the show and then half the FranXX be used by gay couples seems unlikely. tsob fucked around with this message at 07:19 on Feb 4, 2018 |

Why would the robots have opinions on things given they only exhibit life or personality when someone is piloting them? Why would their opinion over-ride the numbers issues even if they had an opinion? Why would Papa care about the sexuality of the pairings if leaving the robots to choose meant having more units in the field?

Ikuno is pretty obviously into Ichigo what with the shoulder touch and all. Goro is less explicit, but the way the naming scene is laid out seems to be hinting at something.

No idea why the shadowy council are being so dickish about Hiro being a perfect match for 02, you'd think they wanted a stamen for her who wouldn't burn out after their 3rd ejaculation. Interesting that they mentioned 'the nines' who I'm assuming are some kind of elite unit who all have the 09 designation, which further reinforces the idea of the number not being serial numbers but some sort of measurement of power level and there could well be multiple people with the same number. I'm liking the show so far and glad they resolved Hiro and 02 without letting it drag on for too long, even if she has the cliche trope of falling for the first guy who treats her as a normal person and not the freaky monster she is. Erg posted:the fight was bad (like why did ichigo go from pinning down the middle of the monster to immediately almost getting eaten???) but i liked the scene where they destroy the worm so w/e i guess Ichigo has 2 spears, she left one of them pinning down the middle of the worm so she could force the jaws open with the other. Erg posted:i'm including the probably 10 minutes of talking and getting the robot hiro and 02 had to do between when the kids were first in danger of being eaten and getting saved. the klaxosaur spent that whole time drooling on them i guess??? Talking is a free action. Also for dramatic pacing reasons it isn't very interesting to show the other robots freeing themselves from the spiky things. My main bugbear with the episode is Hiro's piloting suit already having the red stripe indicating he's the stamen for Strelizia. His stripe should still be white as per episodes 1 (when he's failing the test with Naomi) & 2 (when he's jacking off in the fleshlight bot).

I would assume that Strelizia is a pretty pivotal part of their war planning and that they're more willing to burn out an infinite amount of confirmed, qualified pilots on 02 than they are willing to potentially risk Strelizia being damaged or destroyed by putting an untested pilot who can't seem to function in any other franxxes in the seat. You could go "well why don't they just test Hiro out with her" but there seems to be a time sensitivity thing preventing that since the Masked Council of Doom were talking about needing Strelizia back on the "front lines" ASAP.

I'd buy that if maybe Hiro hadn't already piloted with her in the first episode and showed that he doesn't need to even be conscious to allow 02 to use her full power. They could literally just duct tape him into the chair and let her do everything. Which reminds me of another thing I thought of. We know the female suits have neural interfaces which connect with the robot, maybe the male suits have similar functions (or possibly even feedback dampeners?) and the reason Hiro was unconscious during his first time piloting was due to the fact he wasn't wearing the suit? Alternate plot twist: There's actually nothing special about Hiro physically. The reason he doesn't get drained by 02 is simply that she likes him and hates all the other men who've piloted her, so she kills them (either deliberately or subconsciously).

Or maybe Hiro can pilot with 02 because he already saw her naked?

I like that Hiro needed to step up and say he wanted to ride with 02, full stop. Just because he's not the dominant partner, doesn't mean he gets to sit back and let her do all the work (IT IS A RELATIONSHIP METAPHOR) I did read that interaction between the girls as a little gay, fwiw.

They could literally just duct tape him into the chair and let her do everything. He didn't really pilot with her in episode 1; that was the core of his insecurity about himself and Mitsuru being a dickhead to him. He was present in the cockpit while she did the thing but the only one 100% saying that he "piloted" was 02 herself. This matters because the people who make decisions didn't agree with her assertion that he was capable of piloting with her and they have all of the data to make decisions with. They went "oh, that's potentially interesting", but it wasn't until this episode where they went "yeah this changes everything, he can actually pilot with her for real". That plot twist wouldn't actually surprise me, to be honest. We've been given a lot of examples of how important mental state and well-being are to how the robots function and how the relationship between the two pilots is a huge factor in how they function, given that the two pilots basically perform a mind meld. Since everyone else either treats 02 as a convenient tool/weapon or as some kind of terrifying inhuman freak, the mind meld might not work as intended, whereas Hiro treats her like a person.
