I find her fighting style to be by far the best in the show. You may find it boring but you're in the minority. I find her to be the most interesting character in this show. I know there's more to her than just a psycho girl. She has her own goals in mind which will most likely be revealed next season. Yeah, I feel the same. Well, the fighting in the anime could be made better, not only for Kurumi, but for the others too. The choreography sucks balls. |

Like said before, I don't know why I feel so negative towards her. I could end up liking her someday.Diran-kun said: Why are a lot of people ONLY hyped for Kurumi? It's boring when she is fighting. She has a awesome voice actor, though. Still, it's not like Kurumi is the only decent character. Origami is the only bad one. I am very surprised that Origami is so controversial. I think she is a fairly likeable character, who provided some great comedy in this anime (the gym clothes sniffing scene and the hospital scene). Her role as the antagonist at the end was unexpected but given her tragic history it is somewhat reasonable. With a little bit of character development, she can be even better in season 2. Of course she has a lot of competition because the girls in this anime are all so awesome. If ShidouXOrigami ever happens. . .I don't know. Maybe I hate her because she has a good chance of being with Shidou yet she doesn't deserve it compared to other girls. I hope Shido knows better and chooses anyone else but Origami, she's as dangerous as Kurumi with none of the advantages Kurumi has, but we all know harem protags don't and he may choose her. |

Guys, after so many harems. How the fuck do you even GIVE Origami a chance? |

I mostly liked all the character in Date A Live but they were far from perfect. I really have to say What fighting style....she just shoots herself and uses her powers to bring more of her to the battle. While is may be interesting its also kinda boring and she loses in the end so it wasn't very effective. With all the great things people were saying about her arc I might have expected too much but she was my least favorite.(remember I said I did like all the characters so nobody freak out) I'm glad there's a second season because while the first wasn't perfect I liked it. Thanks for the info and the pictures of S2 look good. |

Among fans in Japan there are only two characters who are recognized as the WIFE 正妻(back in the old days when polygamy was practiced in Japan, only one female was called wife and she ranked above the others) - One is Tohka and the other is Origami. Of course there is no consensus about who is #1 (but you can guess that the majority opt for Tohka) but it just goes to show the perceived ranking of the characters. As I said, Origami was treated particularly well in the franchise - the only spinoff manga and novel are about her, and the merchandise like figures releases her first. Note that I am not talking about the ending so I am not speculating over whether Shido x Origami is going to happen. Anyway, I can always go to the game to watch such ending LOL LOL ![]() |

Looks like I stirred stuff up a little. I am often in the minority when it comes to Anime. I do find Origami to be boring and stupid. Keep this in mind, I haven't watched much Anime and I have recently dedicated all my time into watching it. This will only continue. When you say 'Harem ending', Yeah, I don't know what a typical Harem ending is. At this moment in time, we can't really cancel out any of the girls as a possibility. I wouldn't say Origami has the least chance. |

Babu said: Whoa, awesome news. So soon though. Have any of the BD/DVDs been released yet? If so, have their sales been good? DAL sold well considered its 8.2k yen per vol. There is not many anime that have ever priced that high. For comparison, yahari is 3.5k and uta 200% is 5k And given that estimation puts it at around 4-5k sales, making it more profitable than most shows this season. |

I loved kurumi. Pumped for a second season!!! I hope they get more than 12 more episodes though, the plot seemed scattered and rushed though it was still very entertaining. Hoping for a bit more character development and some more back story to why Kurumi is a psychopath. If they dub it I plan on owning both seasons. |

shigeru212 said: Basically what Hoppy said. Better pose, better details (which is enhanced by its slightly larger size too). I like the facial expression for both, so on that factor alone I would not place Phat one above the Plum one. So here you go.I've been debating between the Yoshino Phat and this Yoshino This one has a more dynamic pose but the other one has a better facial expression and more blush. Why do you like this one more than the Phat? Is is just the pose or is it something else? Hoppy said: @Immahnoob, it is very important if you include not just figures but all kinds of merchandise - remember, figures is just one of the many possible products for merchandise. It may be the most eye-catching (and often expensive) aspects of merchandising but every kind of merchandise, from key holders and cellphone strap, to stationery and sticker labels, every dime and every buck counts. And this adds up - many people, particularly high school students, may not have the money to buy the BD/DVD but they can afford a few bucks to buy such merchandise with their favorite anime theme. Also, the serious fans may want to spend a good sum of money on expensive figures, but then there are the more casual fans who may not want to spend that much money but still like the anime well enough to buy the cheaper items like stationery. This all goes to the bottom line and influences any decision if more anime should be made for the franchise.Immahnoob said: Figure sales help anime in a big way, it's always in the top 3 of what brings sequels, for some series it's the number one thing (Gundam and most mecha in general) but most of the time it's the second or third factor.I wonder, do figure sales help the anime in any way?
