You'll be missing a great show then. DARLING in the FRANXX has been nothing but great so far all-around. Visuals, animation, music, characters, world-building and presentation, and so on.

Yes, it has quite the amount of innuendos in a metaphorical sense, but it overall feels like that's part of the point, which is fitting of the genre; for years, Mecha works have served as metaphors for puberty and growing up for decades.
