| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- What, Kurumi fucking shot Kotori. Nooo. Kotori and that large cannon weapon. So basically, she becomes a spirit now and much cooler than her usual annoying self imo. I find Kurumi to be a bit concerned but I guess maybe excited at the same time. Dat eyes: Episode felt a bit slow for me with Kotori talking. Dat emotions ;.; Oh and I bet Origimi is just enjoying her time with Shido this episode in the episode even though she has a KNIFE. Oh and the usual tempting. Origimi, oh you. |
 |
| Yeah, Origami took FULL advantage of her personal time with Shido. Hope to see Kurumi again in the future. She's great. |
 |
| Bai Kurumi ;___; fak u Kotori u fakin wannabe Shana skank *AHEM* I'm not butthurt or anything.... NOPE. |
 |
| if there's a black rock shooter, then Itsuka Kotori is the Red Rock Shooter (but without red-flame in her eyes) LOL... Origami sucking Shidou's finger like a boss... xD |
| This ep was a good intro for Sister Itsuka arc. The only complain I have was how they rushed the battle, which made it a little awkward and confusing for non-novel readers. Before the opening, there were Kurumis everywhere and after the opening, one on one battle between real Kurumi and Kotori. Hope they fix that for the blu-ray/dvd release. Origami sure took full advantage with her alone time with Shido. Too bad they took out that thermometer scene. That was my favourite part at that scene in the novel. 8.5/10 for this ep and looking forward to the swimsuit wars next episode. |
 |
| I think the only arc that was not rush was Kurumi LOL, they skip Origami flashback, and some scenes skip, must've been too steamy for the viewers~, swim suit battle is next, by the way, was it just me or was the audio 2 seconds slower than the video itself? |
| So she has some sort of phoenix powers. Nice episode:) |
 |
| shit just got serious... just two more eps... there will be no Kurumi saving? I don't think they'll save Kurumi and Kotori in the last ep. Is season 2 possible? |

| THAT ORIGAMI @@ Stark700 said:  ohh yes those eyes, those lovelier fierce eyes than all of the spirits, i`d love to see them moar xD 12 episodes is too short >.< |
 |
| Okay... now a Kurumi arc and Kotori arc or Kurumi arc is postponed? Either way, since there are 2 episodes left, I wonder what ending arc they will use to end this season. Also, it seems Kotori finally gonna have some lovey dovey moment on this series. |

| LOL Origami... |
| Damn. Kotori is beautiful in her Spirit. Hot, fierce and insane! Her face shows she can be more insane and powerful than Kurumi. If Shidou didn't save Kurumi, she should've been toast or just ashes to collect. The anime is really rushing things here as expected. Well it ain't the first time it happened. They're pretty much cramping all four volumes in 12 episodes because of costs. And a possible season two will depend on BD/DVD and merchandise sales. Also it can take years before they announce it. I'm pretty sure they'll the series with the last part of the 4th Volume. |
| Kotori's breast sure look bigger(or is it actually bigger?) in her spirit form :3 And after this episode,I found Origami a little bit more scarier than Kurumi.... |
zakkun89 said: Kotori's breast sure look bigger(or is it actually bigger?) in her spirit form :3 I guess that applies to any female casts(Not including the background characters) like Mana. |

Tohka_Yatogami said: I really love Date A Live's character design (the girls from Touka to Mana all look more attractive in the anime than the LN) and the art and music, but there are at least two things that prevent me from giving it an unqualified thumb-up to the anime: 1) The really cheap ED and 2) the underwhelming battle scenes. I still remember how they screwed up the wrath of Touka when she thought Shidou was shot dead by Origami. And again we have a battle scene that looks less than impressive...In the LN the battle between Kotori and Kurumi was more epic. The battle was too rushed. |
| 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. |

| So, I think.. Kotori is the strongest Spirit of them all!! HAHAHA. ^^ I want to know why she became spirit... My favorite girl character are Kotori and Tohka. :) |
| Damn this show. I really hated Kotori with a passion now im cool with her. Got fucking dammit. lol I pretty much all the females now except Origami. She is just annoying and weak as shit. I do like Kotori crazy personality more though. She put my girl Kurimi in her place with her cockiness. lol |
| Well, the battle was quite short. I supposed Kurumi won't be saved so soon. Haven't read the novel yet I wonder how it will end with her. So Kotori's power flame and regeneration. Totally a phoenix. She might be more insane than Kurumi when her switch is turn on. Only 2 episodes left, the ending will surely not be satisfying. |
 |
| a deito with onii-chan??!!! doushio~ hnggg dat origami. teh hawtnezz |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| This series keeps getting better. |
 |
| Oh Tobiichi X D |
| the fight scene seem rushed but overall another good episode |
Izayoi’s personal philosophy is “To suppress and control both the strong and weak.” |
| I don't read the LN, so I was okay with the fight. It could have been better, though. I am going to miss Kurumi, too bad she won't appear in this season anymore. I guess the last episodes will be about saving Kotori. |
| Origami being aggressive at the end lol. She is soo funny. So it was Kotori who killed Origami's parents. Can't wait to see what happens next. |
 |
| Kotori op. Even someone who controls time can't beat her... I thought this was going to be a serious episode, then Origami showed up and it looked like everything was going to become service, and then we receive confirmation for a huge plot point at the end. I wonder what's going to happen with Origami once she finds out that Efreet is Kotori and that Shidou will inevitably try to protect Kotori from her. Well, not that Kotori would ever be threatened by Origami seeing how she's basically invincible. |

She is just annoying and weak as shit. I don't think Origami is weak, but yeah, she annoys me a lot too. Lol I thought I was the only one. And yeah I disliked Kotori at first too but now I've come to like her. If it just wasn't for Origami being annoying, maybe this series would be slightly more enjoyable. |
| Wow this is getting to good. 2 more episodes left. wonder how this will end |
| Good episode all around |
 |
| I'm liking Kotori a lot more now :D She looked so evil in the beginning. No more Kurumi for the moment, thank goodness. I can't take her insanity, though I do like her powers. Origami...I don't even. Shidou is too nice...=_= |
| this show has got to have a S2. Really. |
| Lot of action. some nice comedy, some answers and new questions. Good episode. Starting to like Tobiichi even more. I wonder what will happen between her and Kotori. |
| Well only 2 episodes left? If there's no season 2 my score will drop. I mean its not like any impressive progress has been made in the plot.. Episode was good, second half of the show is much better than the first. |
 |
| Plots, and twists, I never noticed there was some slight foreshadowing in the first half of the series. Now many of my questions are answered. XD Great episode, and badass Kotori is badass! |
 |
| Really great episode but man does he deserve a beating for treating Tooka like that. :( |
| "Kotori are you a spirit?" No shit Shidou, little girls just wander around with bazooka shooting flames nowadays. |
|
| Damn this dude Shidou..... Respect for Kurumi, glad to see that she managed to escape. |
 |
| Wow, Origami, way to go. At first she was kinda subtle about it, now it's just all guns blazing. I wonder what she did in the elevator 0_0 But still, all those twists man, holy crap |

| They cut much hospital scene. And next episode cover swimsuit battle and part that haven't been translated in baka-tsuki. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| Kotori is a Spirit-human hybrid, Origami sucks off Shidou's finger, Kurumi is missing again, Mana is undergoing extensive surgery. A lot happened this episode. Fanservice episode next. :3 (Maybe not...?) |
 |
| Guess I have to read the LN to see what happened in that thermometer scene -.- |
