I bet Kurumi does not know Shidou can also come back to life after being killed?
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

The episode was nice. And Kotori is a spirit, didn't expect that. This series is getting more and more interesting. To bad only 3 more episodes left.

Good episode. Psychopath girl is not over yet.
Tohka & Shidou relationship is getting closer & closer. That is great. But with someone who is not a human, will it be really work? I presume there will be some conflict involving this matter.
Mana is in fact a mole in AST. I thought she is from the same company. So far, there are 3 companies that involved with spacequake spirit. AST, Ratatoskr Organization, & DEM Industries. Interesting . . .
Kurumi seems to be the most powerful spirit. She can regenerate herself, control the time, & maybe other unreal things.
Kotori has a superpower? Nice. She has a kind of fire element power. Maybe Shidou has some superpower too(except seducing spirit).

Just like always, a power that shown later than any power, it must be the most powerful.

I agree.

Shidou already has a superpower, it's sealing spirit powers in him by kissing the spirit

Kotori with spirit powers? Wow. I love her fire form. The way she deflected that spacequake was quite something.

I had a feeling that Kurumi's Resurrection had something to do with her left eye. This episode proved my theory right. =)

For me this is the best episode so far. The rest were brilliant but this one had me on edge all the way through.

It's a great anime and I'm glad I picked it up. =)

As like this entire anime i think this could have been executed better but i guess they done their best for this episode it was one of the most enjoyable ones so far.
I have to see that i like Kurumi accent it sound very confident almost arrogant.

OMG Kotori is a spirit? Unexpected but amazing nonetheless. Kurumi using her Time powers to reverse her death by replacing herself with another one 0___0. Poor Mana but damn she doesn't have much time to live.

It's been an interesting change of pace and tone to have a spirit that's actually content with killing people. Enjoys it even. Though it seems that deep down she wants Shidou to hate her cause she thinks she can't be saved.

Also WHOAAAAAAAAAAAA at Kotori being a spirit, that came outta nowhere. I was also shocked at how many people were expecting it, but I guess they read the novels so fair enough. Kurumi's on some Caius Ballad status right now, using time and space to be unbeatable. It's really gotten exciting, can't wait for next episode

Is it just me who thinks that Kurumi might not be that bad after all? Perhaps she wants to "be with one with Shidou" for some higher purpose? And she just lets the end take precedence over the means. And all her killings to buy time only gets her more and more lost as to what should or should not be done. Yeah, perhaps my sympathy for this character just got the better of me...

And the glare of Origami at Kotori the Spirit. Give you a kind of feeling that Origami has seen Kotori's spirit form before (and did not like it).
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

Yeah I totally agree with you. I think she's a good character at heart.

And I refuse to believe otherwise : )

The last episode of Kurumi's arc was adapted well (compared to the others *cough* Yoshino). The only flaw was that the fight scenes were a bit too short. I hope that they do justice for Kotori's arc.

Ahh, just as I was beginning to become obsessed with Kurumi, precious tenshin imouto Kotori comes to save the day. Why can't she get more screen time!? Make her arc happen already.

Also, Kotori > Mana. Even if it's blood related (and I LOVE blood related), you can't beat twintail with blue striped pantsu voiced by Ayachi. Simply impossible.

Kurumi's arc is so dark compared to Tohka and Yoshino's. It's so entertaining especially since she has such a twisted personality and creepy way of thinking.

KOTORI AT THE END! HOLD THE FUCKING PHONE! SHE'S S A SPIRIT? WHAT?! Holy shit, she's looks insanely awesome! That axe! I'm so pumped for Kotori's arc. Omg, Date A Live's 2nd half is really good.

This arc was by far better than the other 2. I guess it's because Kurumi is so insane. I loved the part where she went crazy and owned the shit out of Mana. And they finally played the song from Kurumi's PV. Best ost in the show hands down. So is Kotori even stronger than Kurumi? I'm hoping Kurumi isn't just a one arc character because I can't imagine this series without her.

5/5 for this episode and 9/10 for this arc.
