So just started watching Date A Live not too long ago. I get that the whole "delicious" thing meaning that she wants to eat, or basically kill. That thug scene made that clear. But even so, does she want to eat Shido, or gain his power of regeneration? I mean, to me, it sounded like she wanted to eat, or kill, him but at the same time have Shido join her.

One of my favorite stereotypes/tropes shows up in Kurumi. I love the way she speaks with all the watakushi and ara ara~

The show sucks but I already knew it would. Watching to enjoy the fanservice and little things like the above.

Poor Shido, now he have to had to his crazy harem a human-eating Spirit and a killer imouto xD
Also, that was a nice imouto fight :P
But is she really her real sister? All she have to prove it his an old picture of ''them'' kids. It isn't really a strong evidance.

The new Spirit is really interresting, she have a mysterious aura. I didn't really understand how she escaped death and I wonder what is her eye power. Can she manipulate time?

It was hilarious when Shido asked her casually what panties she was wearing xD

Poor Origami, she's the girl that try so hard, but never get what she want...

Wow, I felt like quite a bit happened this episode! Well I suppose not, but two new characters.

We meet Mana, another agent with the other semi-mecha girlies. She is Shidou's real sister?! So Shidou is adopted and Kotori isn't blood-related? But that fight between Mana and Kotori was super fun. Maybe you should be a better more kawaii imouto now Kotori!! Oh well, :3

We also meet Kurumi who was very beautiful and alluring. Her voice felt off yet fitting to me... so idk. Ara ara, she wants to eat? Shidou! Not exciting. :3 I'm excited to see how her arc goes!

Still, I think I am still rooting for Tohka to be his one true. She is just too cute and dumb.

Wooow Kurumi died and is alive again woooow :D Loved that part when she was showing to Shidou her panties hahah

Well now that a blood-related sister just came that made me wonder about Shidou's parents.. where the hell are they? Of course they'd got to be working abroad like 99% of all parents in anime. And also that chick Kurumi is finally here. As of now the only reason I can think of why many peeps like her is because of they way she fights... bloody. But that goes for Mana too they're both ruthless only Kurumi seems to be lusty.. in all sort. Which is yeah that's nice.

The plot starts now.

Kurumi dying like that was unexpected. Somehow I feel like she died on purpose since she probably noticed there were cameras around and she wanted to demonstrate that her power is not like the other spirits. That's just my theory, it just seemed to easy for Kurumi to die like that, to introduce herself in that manner, and then question Origami.


Kotori only little sister for Shido.

This show really lacks common sense. So, Shidou's sister appears just like that, and after a little childish fight with her not-blood related tsundere sister she leaves. I mean, hello! A woman appears in your life telling you that she is your relative and she just lets her go.

Pace of this anime is terrible. We have clips of everyday life like when Shidou wanted to zip up Tohko's bra, then we are immediately switched to another character's introduction and focus. That scene would have made more sense if they give us at least one damn episode of Tohka getting used to her new life. All I see MC who just goes around and befriends spirit cuz' his sister said so. I have no idea what he is thinking at all. As soon as he goes to other spirits he practically forgets others. I have yet to see him thinking on his own and inviting Spirits to do something together. All I see is spirits dragging him around. It feels like he doesn't give a shit about them anymore unless they are in danger.

Kurumi is interesting and the only positive thing of this episode.

I guess this is why all the characters in this show range from mediocre to terrible. It's like the writer used up all his talent on Kurumi. She was the reason why I picked this show up in the first place, just to see what all the fuss was about. And now she's turning out to be the one saving grace of this show.

Two new characters in this episode! Mana, who shares the same hair and eye colour combo as Shido, the "fake younger sister" ... seeing Kotori actually get a little jealous was kinda nice to see :P Although it's weird how none of them remember each other lol. Kurumi is certainly an interesting Spirit, obviously super strong and knows about Shido ... I definitely like her in her "Astral Dress" more though :P Finally I get to see all these characters that were so popular like 5 years ago LOL XD I wonder how this is gonna get resolved ... she "eats" people to gain strength it seems and wants to do that to Shido, and judging from her eye I think she has some sort of time-controlling power? Also ghost hands apparently ... well, let's see where this goes, next episode looks like some sort of triple date or something LOL

Well well well...
Shido's adopted sister,Kotori, a commander that seeks to stop the spirits by making them fall in love with Shido...
Shido's real sister, Mana, a top fighter who has killed a spirit once that seeks to stop the spirits (the bad ones) by killing them...

To top it off both Shido and Mana doesn't remember their past at all except a few fuzzy memories. Quite obviously that's something to do with their capabilities, especially about Shido's spirit powers

What an intriguing sequence of revelations...

Kurumi seems like that specific type of yandere that I forgot the name of. But yeah, she's not only seductive and terrifying but also very powerful with that time altering power of hers. I absolutely love the looks on Origami's faces when Kurumi told her that she could recall Origami being there to support Mana to kill Kurumi yesterday. That's what you get for sputing BS things about being Shido's gf!!!

Kurumi wanted to consume Shido's power hmmn...

If an emo transfer student girl introduced herself as a "spirit" in front of the entire class I wouldn't be able to hold it, I'd burst out laughing and wouldn't stop until I died from laughing overdose. Great, so he has another little sister! HAREM INCREASED!! oh yes, another one, the emo girl, too! Damn, the harem is getting big...

Mana gives off a bit of a yandere vibe and Kurumi, well, she's off the chart.

That Kurumi isn't dead was obvious and it was quite naive to think that she is. I wonder how much they actually know about spirits.

You are telling me... I binge-watched all those truly not so good episodes... Just for... AN IMMORTAL ARA-ARA YANDERE ?! I expected so much more given how much people were hyping her... I'VE GOT BAITED ONCE AGAIN.
...Okay maybe I'm overreacting a bit. After all it's just Kurumi's first apparition. She seems to be quite interesting and entertaining actually, and I love her voice (reminds me a bit of Lain Iwakura).
I just hope I didn't lose my time for nothing. I really hope, cuz I've got a tons of shows to watch so I don't really wanna know I put them aside for the sake of another overhyped character.
(Also, this episode proved me I have a dumb humor. I actually laughed when Shido asked Kurumi about her panties after hearing Kotori talk about it. I'm so weak.)

Thank god Kurumi finally appeared, because I was getting a little bit bored of this show. So far the best thing that has happened to the show. I wish they'd show more of Tohka badass side, like the first episode, although she can't fight full strength anymore.
