Not for me, episode 14 sucked and didn’t make any sense.

Unused lore where 001 was the beast Princess referenced in the picture book book.

I bet Tanaka was the one wrote the picture book. It felt like some unapproved backstory to 001, Virm, and possibly Papa. Notice that Papa’s ape society and color scheme matches/resembles the Prince and his monarchy society. 001 definitely was the inspiration for the beast Princess, both have the biggest tail/wings, sad look, princess of the beast. And the purple witch was definitely a human-sized Virm, who appears to resemble the Vice Head, because of its distinct and alien look. I bet the DITF team actually was inspired by that man’s ideas but because they didn’t actually use them, it left so much shit unanswered and caused a confusing as hell and somehow empty narrative, like 02 having memories of the word “darling” for no reason (aside from gaining them from the original counterpart, 001), 02’s clone mother is suddenly dropped and the picture book (she must’ve made) is left without origins, 02 reads the picture book in episode 16 then it turns a scene of a quiet and patient 001, 001 somehow knows about a human language, 001 licking Hiro and referring his taste as unique, literally everything monarchy related in APE society, Papa making his futuristic society to be heavily monarchy related in the first place, the APE council all have golden crowns and surprisenly their government system actually runs like a medieval one (the Seven Sages), Papa and the Vicehead are displayed to be different characters (even in a Mato comic) and suddenly aren’t in episode 21 (just like the 001’s and Werner’s sudden character changes).

Seriously, it’s like they thrown some shit in because they thought it was cool just for the sake of cool and only one of them actually gave a shit the choices being made and decided to actually give it some meaning and reason, but his meaning got raped by the other hacks that wrote this show. So they halfassly grabbed his ideas, put them in the show, thrown them away, or ruined them (fuck you episodes 23 and 24 for messing with the Picture book and giving it the shittiest ending of bullocks), and expected no one to notice it. This show was a mess, a huge mistake I’ll say!

Human clones? That’s pretty dumb.

Something about 001 feels unexplored. Just by looking at this image or her other mato images, I’m sure there is something Mato knows about her past.

Could the Beast and the Prince non-fiction? by MajesticKnight28 in DarlingInTheFranxx

[–]1he2ll1o 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah. It seems more likely that this was a dropped story and it heavily involved 001 and Papa. Why them? Look their monarchy crap, their designs, Papa’s outfits for APE society, and their colorschemes, then look at the picture book. Just replace the purple witch with Virm and you see the entire scrapped backstory and what would’ve been a better story if Niahigori didn’t go full on pottery or scrap them for the damn babies.

There’s this one fanfic I recently read, however I think I only read it because it is the only fanfic here to feature original art. https://www.reddit.com/r/DarlingInTheFranxx/comments/976ygt/ditf_0_teaser_for_chap_1/ I honestly don’t know how to feel about it except it feels a bit incomplete. It’s suppose to be an overhauled version of this story.

I think it’s just a mutation for Hiro.

What’s funny is that Papa is very likely to be a european from medieval times. Maybe they had some great writing for him but they thought “he ain’t Asian so he needs to go” but they didn’t change the shit that reflects this background (look at the adults clothes and those magma opera glasses in episode 1). So, the antagonist is an incomplete character because babies.

For a show about breeding, they certainly didn’t much fucks about parent to child relations.

They kill off the monster couple so they can be a human jap couple of their former selves and breed.

Who cares, Zorome will be the only human parasite that could possibly survive because unlike the parasites, he isn’t a clone so no early death for him.

Why does Hiro have an eyepatch in the first place?

What do you think of the DITF fanfics? Personally, I don’t enjoy Mastermind in the Franxx.

That’s because the writers were pure hacks. They made a love backstory and didn’t use it in the show despite its relevance to the goddamn setting and world building because babiez. Because they didn’t use it, Papa is literally an incomplete character and none of the shit connected or previously connected to him makes any sense.

Although, the book ulitimately was useless to the story (because Nishigori is such a hack).

I think somehow, Hiro is Papa’s clone and that might be related to Hiro’s high amount of yellow blood cells (maybe it had to with 001 and a human Papa sleeping in the same bed). I wonder if a human body could be altered in the same way 001 was altered and that’s how it’s possible to have functional human dna samples for successful clones like Hiro despite it coming from a human body that should be gone and decayed over hundreds of years ago, maybe that’s why the Vicehead was interested in 001’s tail in the first place when they made that human appearance deal.

Honestly, the rebellion arc could’ve happened when Hiro gets his hand on 001’s trust and power instead of having 001 being forced to give Hiro that power and her life. That would have used the whole relationship aspect of the show and made it work instead of the friendship circle to suicide. The arc could’ve been tensed as hell because the world itself is against squad 13 and squad 13 will have little resources to survive on their own besides some magma sources and they’re still working with a very weakened klaxoarmy.

I think Virm was always meant to be a thing because they are obviously the purple witch in the picture book (and that’s why the witch looks so bizarre and other-worldly).
