DARLING in the FRANXX Graphic NovelsGenre: Action / Drama / Science Fiction
(Age Rating 18+) Availability : Stocking Item - Usually Ships Within 24-48 Hours Unless Backordered In a devastated post-apocalyptic future, Earth is a ruinous wasteland. Massive beasts known as klaxosaurs, the planet’s new apex predators, have pushed mankind to the edge of extinction, and within the walls of the Plantations, things are no less dire. Humans no longer love or reproduce–adults live on in sterile immortality while children are regarded as nothing more than parasites, artificially created to pair up and pilot the Plantations’ giant defense robots known as Franxx. Former child whiz kid Hiro fails out of the piloting program after falling out of sync with his co-pilot, and a fateful decision to skip his group’s graduation ceremony puts him on a collision course with a horned girl known as Zero Two, whose co-pilots always end up dead. She claims Hiro as her “darling,” but what can that word even mean in such a loveless world? |
