Revisiting Darling in the FranXX 5 Years Later, Part 2 – Episodes 6-10

Revisiting Darling in the FranXX 5 Years Later is a podcast mini-series where I and Julian M. of THEM Anime Reviews discuss the rise and fall of the infamous TRIGGER/CloverWorks mecha series.

Due to the nature of this series, some of the material discussed is Not Safe For Work. Listen with discretion.


In the second episode of our Darling in the FranXX retrospective, we cover several of the show’s best episodes, but also more than one that emphasizes the cracks in the facade, which are already beginning to show as we approach the end of the first cour.

Listen below on Youtube, or via the Anchor service, either here directly, or on your podcasting platform of choice.

One thought on “Revisiting Darling in the FranXX 5 Years Later, Part 2 – Episodes 6-10

  1. It really pisses me off that this anime started out with so much potential and threw it all away. Then it started developing a few interesting characters (like Ikuno) but blew it again. And they domesticated Zero Two when her whole appeal was her wildness.
