    Right, anime can be anime and do incredibly stupid things, but as some point you just have to put your foot down
    Unnatural jiggle physics? I can take
    Traps? I'll bear
    Magical girls? I'll turn a blind eye
    Harems? Let a guy fantasize form time to time
    Cheat powers? Everyone needs a power fantasy
    But Inefficient cockpits?! They're pre-pubescent teens, not savages!
    My word, what has become of this industry...

    Tentacle porn is hentai, not anime
    We don't talk about hentai here (unless your willing to pay for the psychologist's consultation fee afterwards)

    Oh, ok... you don't like a doggie style cockpit...ok we can make a slight adjustment with that... So, do you prefer a missionary style cockpit or rather a cowgirl style cockpit?

    You do realise... The position is supposed to replicate Sexual nature between two partners? Hence the whole " I can feel everything about Ichigo blaha" crap?

    Secondly, these 'doves' have been raised unaware of sexual interraction. Heck, they don't even know what Kissing is. Nor do they understand the word "Darling". So they wouldn't be distracted by Asses.

    Thirdly, because of the first reason... The connection is probably sapping any sexual awareness away from the human during the connection period. Hence, it is important they stay connected and don't think about other women. *PEers at the claw robot that lost control when he was speaking loudly about another woman*

    Pretty much, yelling that you want to be another person's partner is like yelling the name of another lover while fucking a woman.

    This whole cockpit design has so many sexual innuendos... The fact you didn't pick this up... Makes me unsure if you even watched the anime in question or if you were raised in a greenhouse.

    nothing really new actually. co-piloting with sexual position has been done years before, and i remember Vandread was like that too.

    each time the mc's vanguard 'combine' with any of the female pilot's 'dread', they'll end up with different position.

    however, i must say that story wise, Vandread is far superior to Franxx. A pity during late 90s - early 2000s, japanese studios were experimenting and trying to switch to using cg animation to cut cost, leading to ugly graphics in a lot of supposedly would've been excellent anime series. I'm willing to bet, gundam seed/destiny would've look 10 times better if not for the shoddy cg attempt.

    There's an old OVA series called "Devadasy" where this was the plot. It's still something I watch frequently. It's pretty scary. Humanity just about gets wiped out.

    Obviously you aren't paying attention in your psychology class, according to Freud, humans at birth include instinctual libido, its part of our psychosexual development, it's impossible to raise children completely ignorant about sex, maybe they succeeded in not letting them know about terminology, but they will still know about the act, like how ignorant school children go from play kissing to middle school humping.

    Hmm... Let me confirm this... Freud as in Sigmund Freud? If so, his research is fairly outdated on this topic...

    The basic desires of a human includes; Eating, Sleeping and Reproducing. BUT...

    If we look at the basic desire, 'Reproducing', we are met with a topic known as Sexuality. Sexuality is a topic that isn't properly explored but it can essentially summed up to, "What you find Attractive". For example, if an animal engages in a homosexual relationship. This will sate the Sexual need. Even if the act doesn't produce any children. But for an intelligent lifeform, such as Humans. The topic becomes far more complex.

    Humans can sate their Sexual desires by merely watching Food being cooked... or water moving down the river. We, as a Lifeform can get Mental satisfaction that can offset our Physical needs in the topic of Sex. How ever, if you were to place humans naked on an isle, our physical desires will rise once more. See the complexity of this? Basically, our society has evolved to a point, where someone can easily offset Sexual desires and you can raise children with Sexual ignorance.

    There is a reason why Power Outage for a long duration of time, tends to be the culprit of sudden Baby Booms. But IF you can raise a child by focusing all his/her focus on other things... You can raise a child that doesn't know squat about Sex even if they have a friend of the opposite gender.

    There was a few years ago, where a couple went to a doctor in Japan and asked why they haven't been able to produce children. They didn't even know you needed to have Sex for it to happen. Albeit, this story may be untrue or not. It story seemed fairly cited. You also have the fact that a large portion of Japanese young, are Virgins. True blood Virgins. While they aren't Naive to that point, it does prove the point that you can easily offset sexual desire by the fourth element of Human desires, to be Occupied.(( EDIT; In Japan, they sadly get overworked which offset any desire to form physical relationships, most of the time. They simply don't have the desire. ))

    Humans don't like sitting around like most other animals. They take up hobbies, they work, they go to school... They always try to do something to occupy their mind. Because of this, the balance between "Eating, Sleep, Reproduction, Occupation" can be easily offset if you influence one sector more than others.

    Now, FranXX is supposed to be a Mecha built around the Bond between Partners. Therefore compatibility is important which results in certain individuals being unable to pair. Because of this, it can be theorized that the machine takes away your Sexual desire because of the 'connection' process. If your Sexual desire is sated, your mind will not think about it. Some people find lack of sexual desire toward their siblings, which can also make them Naive.

    There is a reason, why people tend to say, "One become a Sage after Climax". Because once your mind has been sated, you will not think about it further.

    TLDR; If the human mind is occupied by other thoughts and needs. It can easily offset any Sexual desire or Sexual exploration.

    Well, she must play an integral role in the controls somehow, but I would have to watch it to be sure.

    Isn't the reason that happen is because the show is basically built around sexual symbolism and sex jokes?
