what a cruel angel's thesis :(

Google tells me what this is a reference to but not what it means!

Anyway, a bit more thoughts about FranXX now that I'm bored at work. I feel like I poisoned myself on it from the beginning by expecting things it never set out to deliver. The only other mecha anime I've seen is Knights of Sidonia and it did an excellent job of outlining the conflict and setting right away. I always knew the stakes so it all felt like it mattered. FranXX, by comparison, has laser-focused on whether or not the main character will be allowed to work his mecha-boner. Everyone potentially dying is greeted with mild reactions at best while who rides who is given all the dramatic tension. I've kept waiting for them to move on from that, but maybe the problem is with me expecting more in the first place. I dunno. I should probably watch more mecha anime just so I have a better understanding of the genre.
