Hi Everyone, Friends of the podcast Karsten and Fredrik, who host the Casual Anime Podcast, invited me onto their pod to talk a look at the first half of Darling in the FranXX. I know it isn’t retro anime but it certainly has a link to Neon Genesis Evangelion, which is a classic retro anime. I had fun talking about the show as it certainly has some ups and downs and we’ll pick this up again when the series has finished to review the series as a whole.
