SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

A bit overrated, but still an amazing film

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Darling in the FRANXX is honestly from what I have seen so far the best anime of 2018 and a real breath of fresh air in creative writing and in storytelling throughout the anime genre. The characters were full of questions about life and they felt like actual individuals with real emotions, even if some people see some of the characters as never fully developed. However, the development was real, and even shockingly life like in the sense that there are things in life we will never know, and never expect, things will blindside you, you will be caught off guard.Darling in the FRANXX makes use of heavy themes about individuality, life, purpose, as well as an ongoing analogy about the "Jian" bird and the love between our two main characters to progress an intertwined plot forward. To top everything, all of this is composed of some of the most stunning moving soundtracks and music Studio Trigger and A-1 Pictures has to offer.I'm saddened that this anime received a lot of backlash with its ending, being called rushed, lacking, or full of sloppy writing with its conclusion. When what it was, was a truly new story daring to challenge established writing techniques while still holding to classic things we love. And darling did it so well that people debated over it for months. You as the viewer, your emotions were meant to be struck, people were supposed to be confused, that was the point. With everyone's ideals for the show tossed aside, the conclusion feels right for the story and the characters development as a whole, which is what Darling was all about. I hope to see more if they ever continue the show, if not. then where we left off should hopefully leave it as a classic, people should remember Darling in the FRANXX for its beauty, and I know I will.

First, I thought this was a fighting related anime, due to the cover and the trailer, but the anime it self isn't fully about fighting. It actually focus more on the character, the kids that want to live a normal life like a normal human. It is a very slow paced anime at first, but it if perfect for telling the story. The ending is very satisfying, even that it have a vibe of your name. This could be one the best orginal TV Anime ever created!!! A must watch

From hearing the rave reviews from critics reviewers on here, I decided to give it a look. When I first got a glance at this,I thought the English dub voice acting was great. However the storyline didn't excite me as I hoped it would. This was like a copycat version of Destiny of the shrine maiden. I'm dissapiunted that this anime didnt work out for me regardless of the positive reviews......

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.
