Miwa Kurushima and her colleague Yukari Higuchi are on a mission to find a skilled individual to run the counter bar at the prestigious Hotel Cardinal.

He becomes one of Ryuu’s regulars, trying daily to convince him to leave Eden Hall. Despite Miwa’s assistance, recruiting this particular bartender proves to be more challenging than expected.

Here, youngsters are groomed to command immense mechas dubbed FranXX, the only known countermeasure against the Klaxosaurs, operating in male-female pairs.

Hiro, harboring aspirations of becoming a FranXX pilot, finds himself disillusioned and lacking in self-assurance following an unsuccessful aptitude assessment. Shunning his class’ graduation ceremony, Hiro withdraws to a serene forest lake, where he encounters an enigmatic girl sporting two horns protruding from her head.

In their teenage years, few things can hurt people more than the heartaches that come with unrequited love. Such is the case for Natsuo Fujii, who has found himself entranced by his school’s ever-cheerful teacher Hina. Deflated by this unreachable desire, Natsuo humors his friends and attends a mixer.

Now, Natsuo must come to terms with the feelings he has for his step-siblings as his eyes open to a darker side of love.
