GLM4475 Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Well, I personally like it because of the lovable characters. The story is not bad, and the pictures was nicely done. For me, Tohka and Yoshino are just too adorable. What about you guys? Quote
Eclipsed Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 It's all about da Kurumi. Kotori was fun, too. Date a Live was a decent show. S2 was a bit of a letdown though compared to the S1. Quote
Ceris Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 It's all about da Kurumi. Kotori was fun, too. Date a Live was a decent show. S2 was a bit of a letdown though compared to the S1. I forgot to finish the last episode Agreed with all of Eclipsed's second line, though I never ever saw the appeal in Kurumi and thought she was worst girl. Plot's meh, action can be decent, the girls are pretty good with Kotori being best. S2 just sucked because Miku. Quote
hsmsful Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 I didn't like it. I was intrigued by the idea and concept of the anime but then my complainst started running in: Firstly, I didn't fancy the art at all. Soundtracks didn't stand out but it was ok I guess. As for the characters, I dunno , didn't feel like there's much development , hell I felt like it was the usual pattern , boy saves girl, girl loves the guy, he gets a harem. But then again that was the whole concept of the anime so I should have known what I was getting but it was a mistake on my side I guess. Finally I really loathed some of the characters (especially kurumi) Subjective views aside, it was decent show with a good setting and story and even the cliche moments were to some extent enjoyable even for me. Edit : I thought this was meant to be opinion about 1st season only but as far as second season goes, I struggled to finish it till the last episode and never looked forward to any episode. Quote
Satsuki Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 I watched it for Kotori and Yoshino. End of story. I dropped ss2, btw. astro 1 Quote
Nosebleed Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Kotori saved the show. Not enough Kotori in season 2. Overall 6/10 More seriously I feel like it's a nice way to play on galges and such, but I do feel like the writing is very inconsistent and sometimes it gets lost in its own mess of a setting which makes one wonder when they're kind of playing with the tropes and when they're trying to be serious but horribly failing at it and it just lacks direction overall. But hey, there's Kotori so that's nice. Quote
GLM4475 Posted May 3, 2015 Author Posted May 3, 2015 Hmm, Kurumi nee? Somehow I just can't bring myself to like her. All with her dangerous and seductive attitude. About Kotori, she's an imoutou-chan, you know? No matter how much you love her, you can't love her more than a sister. About S2 being a letdown, maybe it is. But I don't hate it, it reveals three new characters after all. About the cliche setting, I don't reaally care. I like it because Tohka & Yoshino are just too adorable. Quote
Nosebleed Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Kurumi is by far one of the best characters in that show and I really advice you watch the OVA with her if you haven't already because she was just shining in it. She's outside the scope of the other submissive heroines, she's not a random tsundere that can't get her feelings straight, I really love her assertive atitude and I think that's what makes her one of the better heroines in Date A Live. Assertive heroines going dere = Win Tenkuru 1 Quote
Satsuki Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 No matter how much you love her, you can't love her more than a sister. You know... She is a non blood-related imouto. So we can just go ahead and... Quote

astro Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Funny that you bring this up, because I was streaming a playthrough of Date A Live yesterday. Got through the common and Yoshino route I watched it for Kotori and Yoshino. End of story. Wow, you know what is up Quote
GLM4475 Posted May 3, 2015 Author Posted May 3, 2015 I have watched the OVA. But it only deepens my fear for Kurumi. She has so many kinds of herself with different personality. About Kotori, hey, I have 6 little sisters. So I just can't understand those siscon perverts. Edit: I forget, one of my siblings is a guy. So to put it correctly, I have a brother and 5 little sisters. Quote

GLM4475 Posted May 4, 2015 Author Posted May 4, 2015 By the way Satsuki-san, from what manga/LN/VN/anime that picture comes from? Quote

Tenkuru Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 Date a Live is my guilty pleasure. I watched season 1 for god knows how many times and enjoyed it way more than I should have. I don't even know why, I just love it. Kurumi is a really great character, though I personally adore Kotori. She's just so cute Quote
astro Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 About Kotori, hey, I have 6 little sisters. So I just can't understand those siscon perverts. Kotori's actually not blood-related Edit: I forget, one of my siblings is a guy. Wow, did you just-- Quote
Nosebleed Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 I have one sister and my imouto hentai folder is probably the biggest out of all the folders in my PC. Nothing wrong~ Kotori is great not just because she handles her Onii-chan like a proper woman but she's also cuter than a basket full of baby kittens when she's embarrassed and I her importance to the plot really puts her above a lot of the other characters. Unlike all the other heroines, Kotori was with the protagonist from the beginning, she's not expected to be dateable, so when she does actually come into play it's like the cherry on top of the cake, it's just a shame she vanishes from season 2.

Exactly this, and is why Kotori is best girl. And part of the reason S2 sucked. Quote
GLM4475 Posted May 4, 2015 Author Posted May 4, 2015 Argh, a sister is a sister no matter blood-related or not. You don't know how I feel having 5 sisters, each differs about two years in age. They're cute, so lovely, oh dear. About my brother, well, maybe I'm reading VN too much to even forget his gender. About Kotori, I really know you guys feel. But still Tohka is my favourite. She's close to my type. A strong, reckless, pure-hearted, honest, and of course beautiful. Season two didn't make Kotori "vanished", it's just too packed. Introducing 3 heroines with only ten episodes. Quote
Satsuki Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 If we are talking about "vanishing" here, then it should be Yoshino. She has like, zero role with few minutes screen time in ss2. Quote
GLM4475 Posted May 4, 2015 Author Posted May 4, 2015 Yeah it's a shame S2 didn't explore her much deeper. By the way, no Yamai fans here? In its LN there is still unintroduced heroine in the anime. And *spoiler warning* do you guys know that Origami killed her own parents unintentionally when she travel to the past (with Kurumi's help of course)? Yeah, she IS a spirit. Thanks for the admin (although I don't know which one) for cleaning up my post. Quote
