Darling in The Franxx is a popular anime series that combines mecha, romance and dystopian themes. The show follows a group of children who pilot giant robots called Franxx to fight against monstrous creatures known as Klaxosaurs.
The main protagonists are Hiro, a former prodigy who lost his motivation and Zero Two, a mysterious girl who is part Klaxosaur and has a pair of horns. The two form a special bond and become partners in piloting a Franxx. The first season of Darling in The Franxx aired from January to July 2018 and consisted of 24 episodes.
The series received mixed reviews from critics and fans, who praised its animation, characters and action, but criticized its plot and ending.
Many fans have been wondering if there will be a second season of Darling in The Franxx, as the first season ended on a somewhat conclusive note, but also left some loose ends and unanswered questions. Here is everything we know so far about the possibility of Darling in The Franxx season 2.
When Will Darling in The Franxx Season 2 be Released?
Since Darling in The Franxx season 2 has not been confirmed yet, there is no official release date for it either. However, based on some factors, such as the production time, the availability of the studios and the demand of the fans, we can make some educated guesses.
The first season of Darling in The Franxx took about two years to produce, from the initial planning to the final airing. Assuming that a second season would take a similar amount of time and that the production would start soon after the confirmation, we can estimate that the earliest possible release date for Darling in The Franxx season 2 would be sometime in 2025.
However, this is a very optimistic scenario, as many other factors could delay or prevent the production of a second season. Therefore, it is hard to predict when Darling in The Franxx season 2 would come out, if ever. The best we can do is to wait patiently and hope for the best.
Is Darling in The Franxx Renewed For Season 2?
As of 2024, neither Studio Trigger nor CloverWorks, the production companies of the first season of The Franxx, has not made an official statement or confirmed Darling in The Franxx Season 2. The series was a unique effort, which means it didn’t draw inspiration from any already published works of literature, such as light novels or manga.
Darling in The Franxx was a financial success and took home several honors including Best Opening Sequence and Best Animation at the Crunchyroll Anime Awards. A sizable and devoted fan following of the program has also been vocal about their desire and support for a second season on social media and in online forums.

What Could be the Plot of Darling in The Franxx Season 2?
The second season of The Franxx’s Darling storyline is also unknown since there isn’t an official source or guide for it. The anime’s first season concluded with a shocking revelation: the extraterrestrial civilization known as the VIRM, who had been manipulating and enslaving humans for ages, was humanity’s real adversary, not the Klaxosaurs.
While their friends and allies remained behind to rebuild Earth, Hiro and Zero Two gave their lives to destroy the VIRM’s home planet. In the epilogue, Hiro and Zero Two were seen reincarnating as kids and reuniting in a world of peace.
Some fans were happy with the finale since it demonstrated how mankind got a second chance and how Hiro and Zero Two’s love was stronger than time and death. Some fans were dissatisfied, however, since it seemed hurried and unsatisfying in comparison to the show’s tone and ideas.
