----------------------------------------
Ooh, we got a new OP song. I mean, it's more like a new version of it but I personally think it's better than the first one.

Looks like Zero Two is back to her usual self/personality.

Mitsuru's haircut makeover was also noticable this episode. I think it symbolized more than just a physical change for him. He also seems more kinder now than he was first introduced. I was also not expecting that kiss between her and Kokoro!


Pretty relaxing episode tbh after the drama and all the fighting. Zorome though...and I also wonder who that character is at the end.

Things have developed well for all, especially for 02. Since this show always goes two steps forward and one step backward, bad things should come next. Quite time abundant plot making.

New opening is basically the same,but visuals are better.

Nice and calm episode,definitely felt good to see that after all the drama,but I'm hoping that things will pick up next week.

Kokoro kiss scene surprised,tho. Wonder how people are going to react..

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

The opening at the end shows 02 disappearing when she's about to hug Hiro

I blame Thanos bec. of that


But seriously...I don't think its about death...its probably about 02 leaving Hiro to save him or something ...you know like the girl on the picture book.....but I honestly don't think Hiro will let it happen

I think they are doing a better job for doing a flashback to show what happen after episode 15. One month time skip.

Great interaction and development , especially for 02. Love some her sweet moment with hiro.

Love this episode.

It was a pretty nice episode.

Didn't expect the Kokoro Mitsuru kiss but I have no comment towards it apart from that.

I liked the serene tone this episode had to it, watching the kids living and fending for themselves was pretty nice. Zero Two's a lot more cheerful and kinder. Everyone's getting along well and everything seems to be going good.

I actually think I would've liked it more if they had just added some more conclusive material and ended it right here with all the kids realizing that there's more to life than just piloting a FranXX. Would've made for a nice sweet and sorta uplifting ending. Clearly that isn't gonna happen and I'm not sure what kind of drama whirlpool is gonna come up next but bring it on. If the OP is anything to go by, it just might end up with a tragic or bittersweet ending.

I assume the Zero Two look alike at the end is what the Elders refer to as the Klaxosaur princess but if that's true then who are the two keys?

This episode is really brilliant

While it is great that 02 is accepted into the group, it feels like she gel in too well and she kinda lost all her old personality we all know of her. Not that it is a bad thing

Just feel abit off to see her behaving in this way. Quite a shocker

The new visuals for the second half sure were nice though. The damage to the plantation sure ended up changing their lives though. Kokoro and Mitsuru's relationship sure is improving. It was interesting to see the squad learn to adapt to the new situation and learn to cook themselves though. After seeing what happened to s26 its not surprising that they would fear that fate as well. An interesting episode that did a great job of showing the change to both the lives of the team on both a practical level and a more personal level. Looks like they are starting to realise that there is more to life than combat.

Loved this episode, it was quite unusual to watch it because how lighthearted and happy it was considering last few episodes. Episode finished with giving us a clue about what is to come, looking forward to that.

New OP visuals are great and ED is good too.

Last episode the elders called zero two a key and now they said two keys which means that the charcter in the end was probebly the other key ehich means she/he is probebly the Klaxosaur princes and zero two is the Klaxosaur princess and togather they will be able to free humanity from the terror of the klaxosaurus or she is the second version of zero two and getting both of their mind togather (by a franxx rechnollogy) will release the Klaxosaur princess which is suppose to be the key to save humanity by (probebly) having the ability to control the Klaxosaurus and that is probebly why both zero two and her other version or her sister or whoever she is are being called keys. This is all a theory btw.
Also she was probebly locked up at the grand crevasse.

Who is this new pink creature with a sweet behavior and where is the catty one? I don't remember putting on rose colored glasses.

It's nice to see 02 turn over a new leaf and act sweetly, but I kind of miss that wild part of her now.

I think we will have more character development in the same order as the ending. with of course 02 having the most coverage and ichigo the least since her arc is more or less complete.

Damn that IkunoIchigo tease at the end

Ok so I'm not the only one who noticed that Ikuno x Ichigo thing in the ED. No one mentioned it for a while and I was like "did no one else notice that."

Anyway, pretty decent episode with more character drama. I wasn't expecting Kokoro to kiss Mitsuru, and I'm curious about the new character teased at the end.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol.

I loved the new version of the opening, but the end of it made me quiet worried for the future of Hiro and 02 in particular.

It was a bit corny but in the end a enjoyable episode, 02 looks so relaxed now which is awesome to see. I like Kokoro, but not Mitsuru and that's why I don't like their relationship unfortunately.

Ichigo wasn't a Bichigo after all, mature of her to first approach 02 after everything. The gang is also a lot more chill with the whole 02 and Hiro situation and accepted that they don't know a lot about their relationship

The calm before the storm..

They did a good episode again, they needed to show us how 002 get into the group. Also the fact that Zero-Two has finnaly become ''human ;)'' bc of Hiro is fcking great. We can see the links between them all become stronger. I'm pretty sure it's bc they are gonna kill some ppl. So this development it's really well done.

The new ending is really good to me. New Ending is the same sound but the new visual made me fear even more for a '' Sad Ending"...

I think the new character in the op is the "blue" oni, because I paused the screen and it shows the character with 1 blue horn.
Loved this episode, Zero two and Hiro's interactions were cute. When he tried to grab her hand though.
