Just had a search and yeah you're right.If it's the one I'm thinking of, that was for episode 24 specifically, in the weekly streaming discussion forum.
@João Gomes Ha! I’m kind of surprised (and delighted) you didn’t know that, it was one of the few things I DID know about Franxx, because it was seemingly so unavoidable at the time. Happily I’ve somehow managed to avoid any further spoilers though.
Ah, that's unlucky, man.I spoiled myself on something that annoyed me because I was looking for the name of the beast enemies in English (French subtitles have them named as "howlers" and I wasn't convinced) and I found out more than I wanted
Hah, now there's a thread idea of mine that never caught on!Hell, she even managed to pull off a surprise win in the ayasebowl back in the day.
It is, but this is what I wrote in the Your viewing journal thread back in the day:A goddamn beach episode next, really?
Wow, a beach episode with heart as well as boobs? Well played!
I've never really bothered with streaming before, but after seeing pics of that ridiculous-looking control interface, I just had to see it in action for myself!
And guess what? It's actually a really clever show! It seems very intelligently written: there's a lot of high-concept stuff going on. The characters are interesting, and in just the first two episodes there's already so many bits of amazing design work and enigmatic ideas on display. And the action sequences really floored me: you can really feel the size and the brutal power of the FranXX units and their enemies.
I'm really excited about where this is going to go.
I feel embarrassed I didn't consciously pick up on this before, but the robots in this are hand-drawn, aren't they? No wonder they look so dynamic.
Is it just me, or is the voice acting in this show a cut above? It's got some really delicate subtleties in scenes like where Ichigo and Gorō are talking outside following the former's argument with Zero Two, or where Ichigo runs into Hiro in the corridor. I think the VAs are responding to how good the character writing is.
I thought it did rather well, My chart is now four times the size and catogorised in quadrants now...Hah, now there's a thread idea of mine that never caught on!
Wow, really?My chart is now four times the size and catogorised in quadrants now...
I assume that it might beparticularly spoilery or not.
I'll do my best to finish it, there are still a few spare spaces. Plus I haven't decided if Zero Two deserves a spot yet.Wow, really?
You must drop the updated version into that thread sometime.
Go ahead there's a few ladies on here who might be willing to join in. You never know unless you try."best boy" thread
I mean, @Neil.T is the OP of that thread, I think it's possible he could change the title to be for both? I'll be resurrecting it with my new 32 character chart some time in the next hour or so anyway...I wanna make a "best boy" thread on this forum but I want the input to be mostly from people who are actually sexually/romantically interested in men as it will make me sad inside if the best boy thread isn't full of a similar level of ribald bawdy perviness and hot guy appreciation as the best girl threads usually are for the subject gender thereof ;-;

I like this idea, and I'd be more than willing to edit it. How about it, RadFem? Would you prefer separate threads for each or one big all-encompassing, equal-opportunities* discussion/disagreement?I mean, @Neil.T is the OP of that thread, I think it's possible he could change the title to be for both?
I haven't yet, but I've got it on Blu-ray. It's stood the test of time as a series, so I'm keen to see it.Who here has seen Eureka Seven?
Ah yes, episode 9 of FranXX...Probably the twist of the knife here was that I was relating to Goro as the guy whose subject of his affections wasn't interested in him
Episode 9 was my favourite yet. It's very relatable and had me fighting back tears.
Ah a fellow realist heheh. Unfortunately in reality few can be so saintly to give their all completely and magnanimously, with zero expectations of any return (probably an unfair ask even for the average person) as in the idealistic fiction, but that's what makes the latter a nice bit of escapism, for what could be and what we do have the potential for when at our very best.so perhaps it's selflessness in loving someone, being willing to give your absolute all for them? Maybe I find that utterly beautiful as a concept but at the same time endlessly depressing because not only is it not something I've ever experienced but also something I seriously doubt I ever will, from either side. No-one try and give me hope on this score, looking at you as a likely culprit here Neil, your optimism is admirable but please don't waste it on me.
This reminded me of a very poignant line from Horimiya, which I quite enjoyed recently. A character consoling his rejected friend and thinking:Probably the twist of the knife here was that I was relating to Goro as the guy whose subject of his affections wasn't interested in him and was obviously, painfully in love with someone else to the point he knows there's nothing he can do about it
Goodness, I have another fun-looking thread to explore now heh.Wow, really?
You must drop the updated version into that thread sometime.
I second that, they really are adorable and in a similar vein to Franxx, I foundWho here has seen Eureka Seven? Renton is so sweet cries he and Eureka are just friggin adorable.
