It's fantastic up through episode 15.
The problem is the best parts of the show were Hiro and Zero Two. At episode 15, their plot is effectively done, and the show did not have any characters anywhere near as good as those two. Mitsuru and Kokoro were fucking boring by comparison, Goro was a bro but not the most interesting, Ichigo was a fucking cuckqueen, Fuoshi was a loser, Ikuno wasn't given enough to do and Zorome and Miku were... fine.
Those characters worked as side characters to the Zero Two and Hiro show, but once they tried making them more prominent, it fell apart.
Hell, even when Zero Two and Hiro were pushed back after episode 15, they remained the best parts of the show and DID ALL THE FUCKING WORK! Which makes it stupid they're the only ones without a fully happy ending.
It's why the best way to enjoy FRANXX is to watch up through episode 15, then read the last volume of the manga.
I miss watching this show with /a/ though. It got me through a tough time in life and I still love the good parts of it. The fact is flubbed the ending is going to be an eternal sore spot for me.
