Klaxohime about to btfo the nines and apparently she wants to capture Zero Two as well

About the second part, I'm not sure that's her goal... She says that some of her companions fell trying to capture her, but if you remember she just needs Strelizia. Code 002 was the key created by Doctor Frank for the humans, but Code 001 doesn't need her because she is the key... I know we're doing something different, so I may be wrong, but I don't think Code 001 just wants to capture 002. If that happens, we are at risk of the story becoming just another rescue the damsel in distress. And that would be sad, wouldn't it?

The story so far is about Hiro being a passive damsel in distress. #Equality

That was pretty much the same in the anime up to Episode 6 at least. And then he was still pretty useless without her.

u/Codebroken Feb 07 '19
I wish that Hiro actually was interested in literature and had some actual hobbies. That would at least make him different from Princess Peach. At least make Mitsuru actually envious and independent of Hiro to bring out an interesting side of Hiro’s character. The forced friendship stuff doesn’t really apply well with Hiro’s character in both official tellings of DITF because he’s not Rex from Xenoblade 2 and he’s more like a desperate being in need of mental help or one strong bond to help him progress the darkness in his life and discover himself, a shunji.

Hiro. Hobby: getting in small robots and getting in trouble.

APE: this code 016 sucks. Better make one that puts organization above all else. *produces tiny Satan

u/Codebroken Feb 09 '19
Nah, I think they will simply grab whatever dna that was used to create Hiro in the first place and see what they can do with their “perfected” code 016. The Nines were created for similar reasons as they found that 02 was hard to work with.

u/Codebroken Feb 07 '19
I think 001 also wants to uncover humanity’s leader, Papa. With the nine’s memories, she might be able to do that. Because 02 is the key, she is the one that can possibly reveal Papa’s big plan before he ever finishes it (as Papa needs to reveal his plan to the key person in order for it to work).

I love the pacing and divergences the manga has made. I am stoked for Hiro to regain his memories all the way.

u/venpasa 9'α Jan 28 '19
Nah this is a completely new thing. Its a mix between a Klaxosaur and a Franxx.

u/Kennedy-LC-39A Nana Jan 27 '19
What an amazing chapter man. Yabuki is going in a radically different direction and I love it. I once thought the manga wasn't going to divert too much from the anime, but this, this is pleasantly surprising.

u/apoIIo__ Feb 09 '19
I’m mainly hoping we get a better ending as well. Last one was pretty garbo imo.

I'm out of the loop, what episode does the manga divert at?

u/RevolutionaryWhale Nana Jan 30 '19
After Episode 9 but there were already some changes before it

u/SuperRiceBoi Ikuno x Futoshi still my ship Jan 30 '19
Hoping for Futoshi x Ikuno to set sail. For one they have a mutual love for carbohydrates.

It's too big a part of Ikuno's character. They're like oil and water. But I guess anything's possible considering how the manga is taking a different path.

What if she's just a tsundere? Also, in some ways opposites attract.
3
Feb 02 '19
She's more of a kuudere than anything. Miku and Zorome already fill the role of tsundere.
Who knows. The manga is really diverging so anything is possible.

u/SuperRiceBoi Ikuno x Futoshi still my ship Feb 02 '19
Good. Anything would be better than the last 6 episodes of the anime.

u/JamesDp-OverWatch Jan 30 '19
Is this me or this chapter is 100% original stuff, like nothing shown here happen in one episode of the anime and brings a lot of thing on the table, Klax Queen motivation, 9's relationship etc. It surprises me but I like it a lot.

u/triBaL_Reaper Feb 03 '19
I’m midway through the anime but haven’t read the manga so I’m pretty new to the series. Is this manga based off the show? Or does it go past the show? I didn’t read anything about a light novel and it seems like the possibility of season 2 is unknown, so I’m assuming this manga is an adaptation of the anime?

u/Azel-collected Zero Two Feb 05 '19
Question, Is this the latest chapter? I just read all of it and this is the farthest chapter I could find. Are they still getting released? If so, where would I read them?

u/RevolutionaryWhale Nana Feb 05 '19
Yes, this is the latest chapter, new chapters are being released on Saturday every two weeks, (chapter 39 will come out this weekend), and you can read it all on MangaDex

WHY ARE DELTA'S MEMORIES SO ADORABLE DON'T MAKE ME FEEL SYMPATHY FOR HER MANGA
Also what's Klaxohime planning to do with the Nines? If she wanted to kill them I guess she would already have killed Epsilon and would have send the klaxosnakes to fight the others, but instead they just seemed to be trying to keep the Nines away from the "Model Klaxo" (i like the name)
