FRANXX: StreliziaZero Two is the main heroine of DARLING in the FRANXX and easily its most compelling character. A human-klaxo Sapien hybrid working as part of APE's Special Forces, she's spent most of her life on the front lines—literally fighting for a system that barely considers her human.
Her reputation precedes her: dangerous, cold, magnetic. Growing up in captivity will do that. Since everyone around her was trained to die in combat anyway, she never bothered with sentiment or even a proper name—just a number. When pilots around her bit it, she didn't flinch. Death was just how things worked. She kept people at a distance with sarcasm and nihilism, making it clear she despised the entire society built around her.
But that cold exterior? It's only half the story. Underneath is someone reckless, passionate, and stubborn as hell. Zero Two doesn't play by the rules adults set, and she makes no secret of how little patience she has for their authority. Self-confident to the point of smugness, fierce-tempered, and genuinely carefree in her own way—she's a contradictory mess in the best possible sense. Her emotional detachment is real, but so is the fierce intensity that burns underneath it.
