In recent years, anime has grown immensely as a mainstream form of entertainment, and new-gen anime series with different ideas are coming up. However, none of them could even come close to Tatsuki Fujimoto’s Chainsaw Man; the series is infectiously popular among viewers as it features something that has not been shown in ages.

However, with massive popularity comes heavy backlash because members of the Otaku community feel like the manga artist took a shortcut by copy-pasting Zero-Two’s character design to his series character, Power.

This led to the title’s popularity getting some heat from Darling in the Franxx’s fandom. To save the new-gen series from further criticism, he came to their rescue as he cleared the doubt that the fans have developed over the two characters.

Darling in the Franxx may be one of the most controversial stories in anime history but it’s still popular due to Zero Two. In fact, her popularity exceeds that of the anime at times. The story is set in the future, where humans have thrown away their emotions and rudimentary desires for the chance to live immortal lives without the troubles that the civilizations of the past brought them. As interesting as it sounds, the main plot quickly becomes irrelevant, only to be replaced by fan service and bad politics.

It’s an original anime by a collaborative effort between Studio Trigger, A-1 Pictures, and CloverWorks. However, fans point to Trigger since Darling in the Franxx is typically linked with that studio, given its prevalence in the Action, Sci-Fi, and Mecha themes, which have a powerful presence that easily outshines its partners.

Shortly after being teased, Studio Trigger released its special Transformers 40th anniversary video , and it covers all the bases in style. The short—which runs through the history of the long-running Transformers series and its many sequels, spinoffs and big-screen features—features the song "Mayday" by Bump Of Chicken. Hiromi Wakabayashi serves as creative producer for the short, with Akira Amemiya ( Ssss.Gridman ) directing, providing storyboards and handling animation direction.
