Goro (056)

appearance

Goro is a tall and averagely built man, being the tallest of the Parasites in Squad 13, with blond loose-spiked hair styled into an undercut. He wears blue-rimmed (sometimes seen as purple) glasses over his striking golden, olive-green eyes. He dons the standard Stamen Parasite uniform. 5 feet 10 inches tall

personality

Growing up, Goro became very considerate and supportive towards his friends. He learned to think rationally and to step aside when the situation called for so. He has an upbeat and easygoing "class rep" personality and is the "moodmaker" amongst the squad. He's a talented pilot and seen by many as one of the most well-valued parasites in Cerasus and has a good head on his shoulders. He is considered as the second unofficial leader of the squad and is very mature, responsible and level-headed; he isn't badly shaken when things go wrong. When Ichigo is seen breaking down in their FRANXX, Goro is the one who pulls her up on her feet again. However, Goro gives in quite easily to requests, as when he found out that Hiro was severely ill after piloting with Zero Two and would likely die if he kept it up, Hiro calmy asked Goro to keep it a secret so he can continue piloting, to which Goro reluctantly agreed to. Goro also keeps some of his childhood tendencies, as Ichigo states that he is very headstrong and always tries to solve everything by himself.Goro is selfless who cares very deeply for his friends. He will not hesitate to sacrifice himself as he values others over himself. In Episode 09, when Ichigo almost gets eaten by a klaxosaur and Goro realizes that her life could be in peril, he quickly ejects her from Delphinium, and instead gets trapped inside the klaxosaur. After spending hours trapped, he prepares to self-destruct the FRANXX, knowing it would kill the klaxosaur and keep Plantation 13 safe. He is also very understanding of others, and after confessing his love to Ichigo, he states that she doesn't need to answer him, knowing that it would put Ichigo in a confused state but he wanted to get it off his chest so he would have any regrets later. He states that he is completely fine with just being able to stand beside Ichigo as her partner. Even if Ichigo gives Hiro far more attention than himself, Goro doesn't hold a grudge towards either of them.

world in which the story evolves

Prior to 2037, the planet appeared as it does to the real-life Earth as far as having all the known continents and oceans. However, after the discovery of magma energy in 2025, the planet gradually began to be deprived of natural resources, causing a global crisis which included almost all plant life dying out and surface water (such as oceans) drying up. As a result, the human population resides in mobile-fortresses called Plantations, which are large facilities that support the humans’ necessities by drilling magma energy from the planet’s core. The planet gives off red aura from its atmosphere when seen from space. The remnants of the Klaxo Sapiens reside in a volcanic mountain that spills blue substance. After the collapse of APE, the Parasites spend ten years working to restore the planet to prosperity and, by the end of the series, Earth has reverted back to its original, rich state with thriving plant life, water maintenance and the human population steadily increases, which initiates the reconstruction of cities and technology. The planet developed as it appears in real life; by the twenty-first century, the planet had all the real-life continents and were governed by their own country leaders. The wealthy resided in high skyscrapers while the middle and lower class lived in modest or smaller residences, either apartments or houses. After the discovery of magma energy in 2025 under the supervision of APE, the organization gained international global and economic influence, and it became a global organization that oversaw complete authority of humanity. However, by 2027, the klaxosaurs, which are biomechanical weapons piloted by male and female Klaxo Sapien pairs, began rampaging against the magma energy drilling facilities, which led to the creation of the FRANXX, which are weapons used as applications of klaxosaurs and are piloted by male and female human pairs.

what is a parasite?

Parasites are children who are trained and tasked with piloting the FRANXX with the sole purpose of protecting the plantations and the adult population from the klaxosaurs. The male parasite is the Stamen and the female is the Pistil. The fact that Stamen is male and Pistil is female is directly reflected in the appearance of their uniforms. Stamen uniform have reversed "Y" symbol on its chests because male sex chromosomes are XY and Pistil uniform has "X" symbol on its chest because female sex chromosomes are XX.
