Look here, i know some of you alls complaint about the bland new girls, copy paste character design and especially, CGI fight scene. To be honest, the studio is not a big studio so you can't expect all of episodes to be flawless as shit like Ufotable. For me the art design (character face) and especially, the background art in this season is a step up from the previous. And the highlight is, the fight scene. Cgi fight is okay for me tho, they mix the fight between 2d and 3d and make it reasonable. Like from genshin impact vd game, i think the studio did a good job. So i as a veteran fans of DAL and also light novel readers to the haters, you all watch the show for free and yet got a unreasonable complaints like wth. Give some credits for the part they did excel and stop all this rubbish bash. Im happy this got new season so be grateful for god sake. Sorry for my long text.
Peace brother

I love it. It’s very well done and I think studio did very good job so far. Animation is very nice and CG is not that bad, not the best but it is not hurting my eyes. I am satisfied and really glad we got season 4.

The only thing I mildly dislike on this season is Mukuro. She is not bad by all means but imo is the weakest of all the girls we have seen character wise. Nia is a really great addition to this show too.

The CGI is really good and like you said, the animation is really good. The backgrounds and beautifully done and I hope Geek Toys carries on with the series instead of another studio change.

I’ve not found much to complain about this season and it’s been a fun ride so far

As a dub watcher, the only things I don’t like are the cgi and Shido’s voice these past couple of episodes. I understand the VA Josh Grelle is ill tho, so it’s unfortunate.

This studio has a history of horrendously butchering adaptations, so it was kinda expectable.
However, I still think they did way better job than I expected, because I was mentally prepared for utter garbage.

Anyway, Nia is THE (second) best girl, do that's where you're wrong.

I am really delighted that they did a fourth season, which for me was really unexpected, oh well but even if the CGI is really bad I don't pay any attention to it, I care more that they did a really nice character design

I’ve spent the last month binge watching all previous seasons of Date A Live for the very first time and season 4 has been my favorite so far! Im so glad we have a modern art style now. Also the Ed is such a bop!!

Of course, grateful

this season, for me, is the best season in date a live ,

in terms of directing, this season is better too much than season 2 and 3 , to be honest, the first season was better in animation, but the art style in this season is the best

thanks geek toys.

Yeah no it fucking sucks and I am starting to think it would've been better if they never made it. Also, this stupid idea that we owe the studio who made the anime is ridiculous! Its not like they made it out of their own kindness you know? In fact they don't give a fuck about international fans like you

The only thing I don’t like about this season is the CGI fight scenes/ moment but everything else is perfect as far as I’m concerned, you can’t expect everyone to appreciate it for what it is, but keep in mind everyone you seen bashing on this season or expressing their gripes don’t even make up a thrid if fans that like this anime but I agree they could chillax with the complaining it’s actually unnecessary 😂 but hey we got and most likely will be getting another season of fate a live so they can go suck it 😎👌🏼💯

Apprentice the thread, date a live is doing more than fine right now, you may see a couple nay sayers but ignore them we getting season 5 cause we got season 4 so that should tell you how good date a live is doing right now

I like this anime but season 4 makes me a bit disappointed, because most of the fighting scenes are made with CGI

if you're a fan, do not support shitty anime adaptation. voice out your concern, I mean most don't even know who did the animation excellently instead the studio will get the fame if it's done properly.

Anyone who thinks it is a generic harem basically lacks any critical thinking nor comprehension skills, especially if they have been watching this far. There is a lot of plot buildup towards the spirit of origin.

As for the animation, the only real complaint is that ep 6 and 8 heavily used cgi for the characters fighting. The 2s composites is still amazing as are the mecha and ships. My guess this was a short cut taken because any1 can tell that dal is not an easy show to animate. You have tons of mecha and ships handled by a smaller studio for a series that is not extremely proditable. Most of the gatekeepers are not very bright in understanding action shows with lots of mecha isnt easy to make for smaller production committees.

Anyways if the last 4 episodes action used dab rather than cgi characters in ep 6 and 8, we should be able to rest easy. We still have 1 or 2 more seasons to go so they can learn from any related mistakes.

I am grateful we got a season 4
But I just think it’s been rushed…

And what about kurumi’s arc ?

I hope from episode 8-12 it’s about kurumi and what she has todo with shido and the fight against DEM industries

And maybe we finally know who phantom

I mean I already know what happens and how it ends with the light novel

But was hoping the anime would do it justice but… hmm 🤔 to early to tell but hopefully it ends better
