| and of course DAL won't be the same without the existence of TOKISAKI KURUMI!!! lolz this otaku spirit is kinda hard to dokyudokyu capture! 5/5. |
 |
| 2D is superior we all know that |
 |
| But wait, wouldn't Shido's team win the doujinshi competition immediately as long as Miku uses her powers? |
|
| So, what is this "Origin of Spirits" that interest Kurumi of rescuing Nia? |
Miku's illustration was actually awesome tbh, she should've got a chance of working on the manga. Origami is as lewd as ever. Loved to see Kurumi again. Loved it!!! |
| WISHED I COULD ALSO GET TRANSPORTED TO A WORLD FULL OF MAGIC And DUNGEONS, please take me there too if you could ( ◜‿◝ )♡ |
| You ask Origami to draw manga, of course you get an R18 doujinshi. Figured Kurumi would ask to borrow Raziel's power to look back into the past at her target. Much like Origami borrowed her time-travelling bullet. Aside, the OP art is kind of... lacking in creativity this season. Every girl against the same cloudy background, and a few vague combat shots... |
| Origami had the best drawing. ;) |

FrozenRaider said: Origami had the best drawing. ;) She knows what he masses want. lol |
| "Hey Shido, why does Nia only like 2D?" She should ask "why does ppls like 2D" to everyone here too... LOL ___ ___ ___ Also, Kurumi still looking hawt as ever... STEP ON ME And Origami... who knew she would be into that. (also very talented...) Natsumi's drawing style is pretty much "Bishounen", very fitting since their objective is to "prettify Shido" into making Nia fall for him. ___ ___ ___ |
| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| Literally just here to see more of Miku Izayoi's cameo, I am so happy. Shido's got this, no need to worry about the plot. |

Laplace_kun said: pouckis said: LoL this episode was funny. Tbh i would love to see at least one Tooka jealous moment in it. Natsumi also was so cute, especially in the end! Tohka will be much less and less jealous with time. The anime kinda ruined her subtle character development. Best girl! > Kurumi |

| One thing I loved a lot since Origami arc was over is that she truly joins the heroines cast (becoming a revelant character in the harem IMO, she kicks ass), stops working for the baddies, and it is so awesome to see her now with the other girls. I dont think enough people appreciate that fact or recall she was against the spirits and an enemy, during the first 2 seasons, and half of the third season, NO LONGER SO. Her development on her arc made me like her way more than previously, it was so sad everything was her fault, a tragedy she was the one that shoot the ball of energy that killed her parents and then is inverted from the despair. Ever since S2 the concept of invertion has been going around, and next episode it is goona be bone chilling, there were a few sentences that deeply made me chill inside, trying to imagine, that horror, and they are going to adapt that... we see teases of it here, there is a good reason she cant open her heart and it is not because of the book alone, and she casually talked about it on episode 1, shit is fucked... Since they will end her arc next episode, and these episodes have been so light and fluffy, with great adaptation so far, vs S3 and prior, there will be a STARK constrast between ep1-2 and ep3, cant wait to see shit getting real. I think this arc for Nia and Miku's final one set up the villains so well, making you HATE them TRULY, next episode will have lots of people hating them GOOD. To this day I still want to punch the smug face of that white haired fucker! Oh no, next episode is definitly gonna get me rilled up. :/ Yui_Suzumiya69 said: Aluminum_ said: The otome game was really sus LMAO. The doujin competition is much better idea. I was surprised that Natsumi's really good with drawing. I find Miku's good as well. Yuzuru's looks like 1900s art style. Kaguya's looks like from Jojo. The funniest of all is Shido's, he made himself buffed LOL. Anw, greatly satisfied for this week seeing Miku longer and hear her speak in this episode. I couldn't ask for more as long there's enough screen time of hers. Agreed. I think Miku is highly underrated. Her backstory arc from season 2 actually made me tear up. I think she had a fantastic arc, but she mellows down a lot from there, losing abit of its charm, still being a character I really like in the LN, but I loved her dominant side a lot, so shame it was lost for good. Still, she becoming this docile, from loving Shidou, is very girly and cute, so she definitly still has her appeal, the plus side is that she also loves the other girls since she swings both ways~~ |

| was this anime always this boring? what happened.... |
 |
| Watching Date A Live again is so nostalgic to me and I just love everything about it! Nia is causing more problems than needed with her 'I love 2D only' BUT when they figured her backstory with Raziel, it would be pretty understandable that she would have trust issues with people. Seeing all the girls together working hard is so cute and brings me way too much nostalgia that I am not ready for! Also what is Kurumi thinking? |
 |
| Nia is one tough spirit to capture. |
| Do I like 2D?.. Yes, I do.. Seiyu too.. ;D Alright, understandable.. ;P Based, I'd say.. Even if I don't love them personally, only maybe can like a lot, but I can see it.. Don't rush with kiss, there's no hurry, bruh.. ;P I'd be impressed with such design as well, Nia.. But it was made specially for you, probably.. Or even voiced in real time.. Yeah.. Yamai sisters competed in manga drawing as well?.. Nice thing to compete in.. ;P Hm.. Kurumi wants to kill the very first spirit?.. Or prevent her from dying?.. Or something.. Well, we'll know with time.. ;P Miku drew quite well, though.. ;P Hm.. Interesting to see that Yuzuru is drawing in shoujo manga style.. And Kaguya is more in shounen style, or something.. Not sure, how to call Kaguya's style, but it is more boyish and energetic.. lol at Origami's drawing.. ;P Nice one.. ;P Poor Natsumi still is suffering from bad mood.. And her hair is disheveled, probably not being able to take care of herself.. I hope she won't kill herself.. By the way.. 15:00.. Is there Miku wearing only sweater?.. And no pants?.. She wears stocking, on the other hand.. But it makes it even more lewd.. Nice.. ;P I like this season so far.. Lots of otaku culture, and jokes on that, interesting things like feelings about it.. Nia is also interesting as a person.. Date A Live I initially liked the most for the meta choices of VN implemented in anime, among other things.. It's fun.. Origami is nice.. Girls are wonderful in their own.. So all of this, and more - a quite enjoyable season so far.. Every episode is just so much joy to watch.. ;P |
| Tokiya in the flesh? Dat kiss? Nope. Dat kick. Dat delivery. My Little SEED. LMAO at Cero B. 2/29 birthday? She found out. Dat challenge. Kurumi appears. Tokiya is on the incest is wincest squad. A man of culture. Nia's birthday is only during the leap year. No wonder she looks young. The Miku disrespect shall not be tolerated. Her drawing was great. Still can't believe they made the narrator do episode previews. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| I swear VN games will see a massive revival if they can make something that advanced in the future. I like the part when they were comparing drawings. I'm glad to see others who don't have an artistic sense like me. lol That's an interesting way to make a spirit fall for Shidou. I'm glad it wasn't as easy as the previous other spirits. |
| Seems like the cosplaying did not work as expected, was close though. Now they're drawing a manga, huh... this show certainly has no fixed direction. |
