Most the people I've talked to when it comes to this series either hated it with every fiber in their being or they adored every part of it. Now myself personally felt like it had it's high points like the ops and eds as well as some moments and messages, but at the same time also have my criticisms on it. Pretty much this post is just to hear everyone's opinion. Please note that everyone is entitled to their own opinion and to keep the discussion respectful. Thanks :D

Everything after Episode 16 is the usual trigger BS I've come to know and accept, before that it was pretty good, though it did feel like a second rate rip off of Evangelion and Gurren Lagann at times.
But when they started going to space out of no where, I just couldn't wrap my head around it.

I'm in the hate group. tbh it was alright until it became a galactic war between humans/klaxosaurs vs aliens.
Overall I rated it as a 5, which for me means its average, not great nor terrible.

This anime is just super robot mecha which incorporated sexual fanservices and romance as part of the plot,

Nothing groundbreaking, just another anime which is trying to be unique in its own way.

i love this anime this was actually quite great if u ask me, they kinda changes the whole story and plot in the anime.Everthing is different but still feels good looking at it, the ending was actually little emotional with the ost and scenes but still I prefer the original Manga ending where they both didn't die. It was kinda different experience from the manga so I loved it. i also don't the space war other than that everything is good

I never understood the hate. Sure, the final episodes didn't have the polish and meticulous writing and cohesion as the rest of the series, but it's not like it was trash. It went from amazing to good.

I think it's a solid watch and a really good addition to the mech genre.

Having tried to analyze it objectively with a cool head, I’ve come to a conclusion that it’s a complete rip-off of Evangelion (for the most part) and, as other people claim but I can’t say for sure, Guren Lagann. At times, Trigger has gone as far as copying the Evangelion episodes entirely, including the contents of the dialogues (the episode, in which the story reveals us the past of Dr. Franxxx is 100% identical to the one in Eva, which tells us about Gendo’s past). On top of that, there’s no real character development, but instead there’s some kind of schizophrenia going on with their personalities. For instance, when Zero Two starts off as an asshole, then suddenly becomes super cute, then turns into a yandere, who’s ready to wipe out anyone if it’s for the sake of her “beloved one”, then she becomes cute again and so on. That’s not a development but just an inconsistency, giving off an impression that the playwright hadn’t even re-read their own script to avoid plotholes when making a new episode. Same goes for every other character: either they have no development at all, or it’s simply not a development, but rather some kind of drug trip. As for a series that was produced by several studios at the same time, to say that the animation quality was mediocre is to say nothing. And, most importantly, this anime claims to be a mecha, and yet the mecha elements get very little screen time.

Of course, there are much more flaws in addition to the ones I’ve mentioned above, but pointing them all out would take an eternity, so I’ll just stop here.

I wanna shake hands with the director for the absolutely perfect 21 episodes.

And again i wanna punch him on the face for the freaking monstrous 3 last episodes.

Doesn't make any sense how a director of a such a good series messed up so bad in the last episodes. For some time i was convinced they changed director in those 3 episodes.

They made for all the background characters the perfect ending.

And for the main characters which all series was about them (especially zero-two) they just kill them with the most cliche way. And after that they throw some reincarnation rubbish, to make viewers feel better (not everyone believe in reincarnation by the way).

Can you guys stop pinning all the blame on Trigger? After all, it was a coproduction between them and A-1 and I believe those guys are more responsible for the direction of the story.

It was my first anime so It has a special place in my heart but It still has its flaws. For example the pilot sistem for the franxx or everything after episode 21...

I'd like a season 2 tho...even if It is less likely to happen.

in my opinion the last episodes where aliens were introduced and all was very, very, very bad writing the pacing was waaay too fast and we had just been revealed about dinos and all and then they just revealed wayyy too much. the manga did pretty well adopting it tho.
and many complain about Ichigo's character but imho it was not that bad considering they did not know what they were feeling.
and then some complain about ntr and stuff but its pretty common that mc does not end up with childhood friend.

edit: I also don't like how quickly feelings developed between 02 and Hiro. I mean it was totally illogical and her becoming a Yandere from Moe was also kind of...... stupid.

Most people who loved it seems to hate the last 3 episodes but I liked them anyway. They gave the story an open ending so it isn't that whole "And they lived happily" thing, and I can't imagine another way of the story evolving.
This is my favourite anime and in my opinion it's a 10/10
