I just watched it for the first time, and as someone who loves conceptual stuff I think it was pretty ok. I liked it. I can see flaws - many in fact. I can see the kvetching about Darling in the Franxx was... suspect at best. The only thing I haven’t wrapped my head around is the appeal for Asuka (in an anime where I…

That's funny. I thought NASCAR went left.

“Well shoot. I kinda want to see it, but I ain’t seen the 65 movies comin’ before.”

Let's start referring to gun deaths as post-partem abortions.
