Yet it doesn’t absolve those involved from imbuing their own ideas and nuances to create something worthwhile. Darling in the FranXX doesn’t seem to comprehend this point, as it overtly uses critical elements from several other anime as a faux attempt of appearing sophisticated.For ease of reading, I have created a short list of instances that were copied, slightly altered, or outright stolen from other anime (this is not all-inclusive, as there are countless examples):
-The underground city bears resemblance to Tokyo-3 and the Geofront from Evangelion.
-The mysterious men/women in the white uniforms that have significant influence are rip-offs of SEELE from Evangelion.
-The launch sequences are essentially mirror images of Evangelion’s launch sequences (see a theme here).
-There was some kind of testing that was being performed in the early episodes that paralleled the synchronization tests in Evangelion.
-Episode 6 of Darling in the FranXX has been compared to episode 8 of Gurren Lagann. Which makes perfect sense, since Atsushi Nishigori (the director of Darling in the FranXX) was the director for episode 8 of Gurren Lagann, but this brings up a more serious issue: why is Nishigori reusing old ideas from over ten years ago? Not only that, but why is episode 6 of Darling in the FranXX a worse rendition of his earlier work (he couldn’t come up with improvements in all these years)?
-Episode 13 is a reverse retelling of Beauty and the Beast — in fact, the title of the episode is The Beast and the Prince (they’re not even attempting to disguise their intentions at this point).
-Episode 20 we find out that VIRM wants to annihilate the klaxosaurs who retreated underground, similar to the spirals (who lived underground) fighting the anti-spirals in Gurren Lagann.
-Mecha’s transforming to absurd levels of scale and power like Gurren Lagann.
-Instrumentality, much?
Then comes the real “butt” of my issue with this series, and this concerns the “doggy-styled” positions the girls must assume to pilot their Evangelions — I mean, their FranXX’s.
What lurks in those depths are beings not of Earth—but the ordinary humans clashing with them are extraordinary by Terran standards! Volume 11 • Jan 23, 2024 When Polka returns home, he is greeted by a crowd of familiar—and not particularly welcome!—faces. A new internet trend for “corpse hunting” has drawn the attention of Majiri Agakura, who invites Polka to join her investigation. Several streamers have gone missing at an abandoned hospital, though Polka senses the site may not be as “vacant” as they believed, and more than just corpses wait within. Volume 10 • April 06, 2023 The Corpse God makes his final stand against Civil, but he is not alone. Joined by his fallen comrades from the other world, the Corpse God summons a power strong enough to oppose even the formidable might of Sabaramond. However, Civil is merely the product of a greater threat, one whose connections to the other world could destroy what the Corpse God has worked so hard to build in this one! Episode 24 • Dec 25, 2023 The Shinjuku War
The Corpse God prepares to sacrifice himself to stop Civil, but his new friends have other ideas. Rescuing Polka's soul and regaining any shot at a peace will take two lifetimes worth of connections.
