History Trivia / DarlingInTheFranxx

** Many fans had called the [[spoiler:partner switch]] all the way back in Episode 3, where they show that certain FRANXX teams were struggling with synchronization, and Kokoro seemed to be more at ease with Mitsuru while Ikuno was much less sad and upset when she was with anyone other than Mitsuru. The manga adaptation makes [[spoiler:Kokori's interest in Mitsuru]] even more blatant, in that she drops her conversation as soon as Mitsuru arrives and uses the garden as her excuse.

* BannedInChina: After the third episode, the anime was announced to be no longer airing in China. The whole fiasco is a bit more complicated however: a certain Chinese anime commentator directly compared this anime with ''LightNovel/VioletEvergarden'' (both aired in the same season) in a single commentary video and, with the Chinese fandom already divided over [[DuelingWorks which is the better anime of the season]], a ''massive'' FlameWar broke out over the Chinese internet ([[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Some elements from the anime]] only fueled it even more). This results in a self-proclaimed fan of the commentator reported ''DARLING'' to the Chinese officials for its unsuitable contents, eventually [=iQiYi=] (which had exclusive rights to air this anime proper in Mainland China) pulled the plug under pressure (''Manga/SlowStart'' was also dragged down unfortunately). By the time of this edit, the fiasco (and its consequences) has no signs to end, but at least part the China anime fandom [[WasItReallyWorthIt agreed that they went a bit overboard]].

** In the show itself, there's Zero Two who just so happens to have the same name as a certain [[VideoGame/Kirby64 Eldritch Blood-Crying Demonic Fallen Angel thing from a kids game]]. This has led to a massive tag confusion at Website/Pixiv.
