Darling Nowhere Near the Franxx #16 — Not-A-Beach Episode… Redux
May 5th, 2018
Move forward. Move forward.
Impressions:
Now that we've finished the arc of Hiro accepting 02's horrible past, rejecting a muggle relationship, and accepting her, then having a beach episode before going on to do the exact same thing again, that means that it's time for another beach episode, right? Psyche. It's time for a not-a-beach-episode. You know, where they just kind of hang around, take a bath, go fishing, eat outside, have a campout… but at home, not the beach. Bold new ground we're covering here.
And they're so subtle a mere 8ish episodes from the end talking about how happy they are and how wonderful and full of awesomeness life is. I mean, sure, we could've talked about the giant hand, but we've got tears to shed about the glory of being a teenager; a stark contrast to the last four months of tears being shed about the pain of being a teenager. Maybe we need to find a bit more of a range of ways to react to things besides sobbing over them. Or maybe just stop boring me with interminable voice overs as we pan over scenery.

This show really didn’t need over 12 episodes.
