I enjoyed this first episode, hopefully it pans out into a fun little show. I haven't seen Star Driver, but I have seen Captain Earth and this kind of reminds me of that. Then again Captain Earth had a good first episode too but not very many highs afterwards.

The name of the OP song is "Kiss of Death" so I wouldn't be too surprised if something weird happens.

Where do I have to go to download this "hyperporn"? darealkooky posted:I like when this show does stuff with the framing, like the widescreen shots, half the screen cutting out during the "ntr" or the super focus on ichigos lips.

Maybe the hyperporn of the Franxx world just doesn't contain kissing of any kind.

I think people may be overstating the basic premise here a bit. The shady government nonsense and all that is secondary to the focus on 02 and Darling's relationship. Like its even right there in the title of the show.

Darling in the FranXX isn't horny enough to be art film/television.

In general its weird when they start going on about "Papa". Really gives off the Cult of Personality feel.

Episode was cool and good as others have said.Mokinokaro posted:Yeah, it makes Dr. Franxx seem more villain-like, doesn't it? I mean, it seems like he's softened a bit in present day but that scene with young Zero Two was brutal. Does that mean Hiro is the Monster?

Only got to this episode tonight and wow what a shocker. Ichigo has become a really interesting character.

I really don't get some people. The story uses Ichigo in a way other than just being a cute girl who puts her hands in her pockets and people lose their poo poo like that? Jesus.

While the scale isn't the same, the Ichigo thing really reminds me of the reaction to the character of Skyler in Breaking Bad. People loving hated her character for acting against Walter White, and surprise surprise the actress who player her, Anna Gunn, also received death threats and the like.

This was a good episode though tbh I would have liked to see the drama from the end of 14 last a little longer.

Eela6 posted:Darling in The FranXX, from the beginning, has presented itself as a Big Important Anime about Big Important Things. It's signposted this in a million ways. Beyond the fact that it constantly apes Evangelion, all of it's visual design screams THIS IS A METAPHOR, from the small things, like the X/Y uniforms, to the giant robot in the room of the FranXX themselves, to, well, 90% of the plot points and dialogue. The show is actively inviting the audience to engage with it at as a metaphor about sex & gender politics.

Kanos posted:As Blockhouse says, it's pretty hard to not take it seriously when the show seems to have spent most of its run desperately wanting to be taken seriously, tackling concepts like teen pregnancy and nonstandard human relationships in a very serious and non-humorous light.

Kanos posted:You can argue over how well they actually handled it, but I don't think you can argue that the framing of stuff like Kokoro's pregnancy was meant to be something dead serious and real to the characters and not something played off like a joke or something that doesn't matter. The show at least made a vague attempt to tackle some pretty serious stuff, so going "nah it was never really serious" is disingenuous. Like for god's sake Kokoro got amnesia before she found out she was pregnant. After being kidnapped from her own wedding by an army of clones. That's not the kind of plot developments you introduce if you want to appear like a particularly serious work of art- its a trashy move you do to be surprising for your audience and generally appeal to their emotions on a kind of base level.

Guy Goodbody posted:naw it's easy. Mazinger Z The Impact, Gundams The Origin and Thunderbolt and Reconguista in G, Active Raid, Robotics;Notes, I haven't seen Valvrave but I've hear it's good... If it was the Gundam Origin manga instead I think its a much closer race but that started years before TTGL did.

It's not like if you cut out the really dumb rape scene that Valvrave wouldn't still have a lot of other issues either.
