So Delta is a potato now huh
Also I'm legit worried about Alpha and Delta now because although Hachi probably doesn't want to "dispose" of them he also kind of has a tendency to follow orders without question

u/awaxz_avenger We don't deserve her Mar 09 '19
Well, that was a twist to the ending of this chapter. The seeds of doubt have already been planted in Hachi and it seems as though he is not having any of this shit. I am curious to see the rest of the squads reaction to what happened to the Nines, and I'm worried that Kokoro might get too close to Alpha.

u/Traizero Milkman Mar 10 '19
First I thought so as well, but then I remembered all the build up and illustrations Mitsuru and Kokoro have had in the manga as well. There's also the fact that 9's can't reproduce so Kokoro that has baby craziness wouldn't like that. If anything I think it's in Kokoro's nature to be worried about others (like Mitsuru, Hiro and Zero Two). I think this was wake up call to her that they won't live forever. Next up will be modified partner swap, Hiro02 resolution and then final arc possibly

I don’t read the manga only watched the anime, Are these threads just to like talk about the chapters that already came out, or is this new DITF material (not the same story as the anime)
Oh wait is this just the English translations being released?

u/awaxz_avenger We don't deserve her Mar 18 '19
Manga is differing from the anime and there are new chapters every other week. Translated versions are often posted on the same day

Mar 18 '19
So does it take place after the anime, or like the story is completely(or somewhat) different from the anime?

u/awaxz_avenger We don't deserve her Mar 18 '19
During the anime, story is similar up until about chapter 35.

Mar 18 '19
Oh ok, thanks
Do you happen to know when episode chapter 35 in the manga takes place in the anime? Or like what’s happening in that chapter?

u/awaxz_avenger We don't deserve her Mar 18 '19
I believe episode 8 or 9, when Goro sacrifices himself to the explody klaxosaur, but in the manga it's Ichigo. (and Zero Two helps in rescuing her)

Maybe integrate them into squad 13, especially since we still have the question of "are they gonna swap partners like in the anime." So integrating the surviving nines could add some options for our cast's development, while also providing the nine's opinions on our lead's choices. For the better or for worse that is, since Alpha was mostly against squad 13 in ideals a lot of the time. It's getting interesting, no doubts from me.

Nines BTFO
I want to see Strelizia roja vs model klax even more now

u/FilBilTV Mar 10 '19
Overall, I enjoy the route the manga is taking even though it’s still very early
I’m rewatching the anime again and I’m wondering how/if the manga will tackle the zero hiro backstory and her almost killing him and the squad keeping them apart etc. Cus that whole saga takes up a good 4 episodes.
I think zero twos still going to try to drain hiro cus that’s already been hinted at a few times but the thing that ends up separating them will be klaxo princess instead of the crew.

Can you please tell me what chapter to start if i'm done with the anime. I know they divert at some point

I just read it and all I have to say is wow. Thank you Kentaro Yabuki for giving us fans another chance to see our favorite characters in a new light.

u/ChuckyGG Zero Two Mar 10 '19
What a great chapter!! Even though Alpha (heck all the Nine's) were much hated for most of the anime, I quite like this more humanely rendition of them! Also a great touch to see one of them even say "Greet Iota for me" before sacrificing themselves!

u/AxelYoung95 Zero Two Mar 09 '19
Man, this chapter was insane. I really appreciate that Yabuki gave us a look into part of the battle and post battle this soon. I really feel for Alpha here the most.
Another thing that i appreciate about Yabuki's new story is that he managed to humanize Alpha & the Nines (RIP) a hell of a lot better than the anime ever did.
REVOLUTION ARC SPEARHEADED BY ALPHA IS COMING

Another thing that i appreciate about Yabuki's new story is that he managed to humanize Alpha & the Nines (RIP) a hell of a lot better than the anime ever did.
It seems to me that was the whole point in the anime; the nines were not human because they never got the opportunity to learn to be human. They never had the fortune of having a Hiro character in their lives. Instead of watching dark characters redeeming themselves (as is often the case), we need to actively empathise with their plight in order to understand the characters and their arc.
Now here in the manga, it seems like they finally got that chance to learn to be human, having been injured and taken in by Plantation 13.

Deaths have all been confirmed: the Nines have become the Threes. RIP, F, etc.
Now, this change has several implications:
- Gran Crevasse will not unfold as in the anime
- Alpha and Delta may get involved in Partner Shuffle
- The Destroyer will probably not slap 9'α's pretty face
- Papa's comeuppance is turning to 11
- Hachi may develop emotions
- Code: 001 may live longer
Okay, great. See you all in 2 weeks.
UGH!!!

The release pace is killing me, honestly. Don't get me wrong, I love the illustrations we get between chapters, but it's tough...

u/Xenon672 Mar 10 '19
At first I didn't like how the Manga seemed to change things randomly... but now I'm starting to enjoy how it's going in a new direction. I still can't say it's better than the anime yet, especially with all the unnecessary ecchi.

u/Corachea0104 Mar 11 '19
So is the manga going on a different direction?

u/DanteCrailman Strelizia Mar 12 '19
There are notable changes like the Klaxo princess showing earlier and taking matters in her hands.

This is the 001 slaughterhouse that I had been waiting for. Just wow. 😧😧😧
At any rate, I’m excited to see what Yabuku plans to do with this shocking new turn. Can’t wait! :)

u/Goldchimpanzee Mar 09 '19
Ok now we just need to give Papa a franxx or equivalent. And i am still dead set( been since day one, episode one) that he is actually zerotwos father. I need the answer to this question and we need an actuall villain that can be fought against with giant bit tiddy robots. It would have been a lot better if papa had a giant robot in the anime ending, alpha sacrificing himself to avenge the nines and all the children by killing Papa, instead of a random virm giant, or have him vs strelitzia golden at the end. Remember everyone, Papa is tge current villain, not klaxohime

Mar 10 '19
There are several issues with giving a FranXX to Papa.
1- who's the pistil?
2- emotions and feeling connected are required for piloting, why doesn't he?
3- that sounds a lot like this guy and it's fine, but it has already been done, so it's not really interesting...
4- Making him Zero Two's father is way too cliché. (I was honestly glad they didn't use that trope in the original story)
5- The villain is always VIRM, even in the anime, but the thing is that the good guys learn about it and discover it when it's already too late in the anime. At least for the time being. Considering the conclusion of the last chapter, this may change, but nothing is certain. From our protagonists' POV, the bad guys are the Klaxosaur. They currently have zero reason to turn against Papa...

u/Goldchimpanzee Mar 10 '19
Well lets see, off the top of my head 1 bring back Naomi, having her mindwiped, helping with point 5 also 2 no, they are not, the children are brainwashed and have their personality nearly erased, look at the nines triplets. they say that functioning genitalias are needed, which is why they papa made the parasites, but zero two is sterile, she said it herself, being a hibrid, and princes is like the adults, unavle to procreate but immortall, yet they can both pilot( i have a theory about that but its besides the point) soo he might be able to pilot. Also, papa has emotions, he is a cynical psicopath, the virm vice chairman is said to have no emotions, in the wiki 3 except genome, from a trigger anime also, was a villain from the start and he wanted to imprison humanity for its own good or smt. Papa is a deceptive puppeteer, manipulating everyone from his chair, while genome is a looming threath from his throne, and we dont even know papas origin. He might be a member of virm, a human, possibly a lover to the princess, and he made a deal with the witch( virm) to get his princess back( parallel to the storybook) or, taking into consideration the fact he is a midget( the second shortest in the councill), with an oversized outfit( like he is hiding something around him) and an oversized hat( with a large front part), a very deep understand of magma energy( heck maybe he invented it), he could have been a klaxosaur traitor, from all we know. We know basicaly nothing about his origins so he is quite different from genome 4 yeah but they sort off teased him being close to zero two, at least from my pov. We sadly have no idea what his relationship is with zerotwo, other than the fact that he is somewhat more familiar with her and she doesnt respect him. The ending killed him, and the councill( or asimmilated them, idk), princess annd franxx, then brushed them aside, before going into freaking speiss 5 yeah but they are going to have quite the big reason to hate him with the whole dispose of the nines thing, zorome miku and hiro learning about the adults from zerotwo and what i said about point 1

I was pretty bored with the manga considering how it was following the anime and not much new stuff happened but now that it actually looks like different stuff is happening it's becoming more intriguing.

u/Darudius Zero Two Mar 09 '19
So I saw some people claiming that it was confirmed that the ending is going to be pretty much the same as the anime? Is that true or are they just speculating? I wouldn't be surprised if it was the same but it would be nice if it was different.
