‘Darling In The Franxx’ or ‘Dārin In Za Furankisu’ is a Japanese science fiction animated science fiction romance drama produced by CloverWorks. The same company handles the animations. The show was announced at Trigger’s Anime Expo 2017 back in July 2017. The international distribution of the anime began at the same time as its domestic release. Here is everything you need to know about the renewal status and other details about the show.
Has ‘Darling In The Franxx’ Been Renewed For Season 2?
Even though the second season of the show has not been confirmed yet, there are a lot of reasons to believe that it will be back. The show premiered back in 2018, and it was a collaboration between Studio Trigger and CloverWorks. After the first season aired, the show received mixed reactions from the audience and the critics, mainly stemming from the finale episode. It’s worth noting that the first season ended without really a cliffhanger to jump off of. It wrapped up quite nicely and it seems likely that the creators were not planning a second season from the beginning. It’s most probable that the show won’t return.
What Could Be The Plot Of Season 2?
Based on how the show ended, the best scenario for season 2 is to start fresh. The show’s finale depicted Hiro and Zero Two sacrificing their lives to destroy the alien hive. Additionally, the survivors were shown attempting to rebuild their world, but the main villain vowed to return one day and create an even bigger mess. A thousand years later, Hiro and Zero Two are reincarnated and reunite. If a second season occurs, it would likely be a prequel or continue after the events of Hiro and Zero Two’s reincarnation.
