| This show is amazing. I love the idea behind the show, the character designs, the comedy, the music, and the voice acting. I do agree it was a little rushed. However, I feel the animators did their level best, considering some executive team probably wanted to adapt these 4 light novels into 12 episodes. It probably should have had 13 or 15 episodes instead. Anyway, Date A Live was very entertaining and I hope it gets a second season. And lol about Kotori's affection levels being 100% the whole time. She is such a tsundere. |

Kurumi should get her own spinoff series... i'd pay to watch it.... |
| Well, the anime was superb. I can´t compare it to the LN, since I haven´t read it yet, but I enjoyed all 12 episodes, and I hope there is a second season, there wasn´t enough Kurumi in this one. Overall: 5/5 to the episode 8/10 to the anime There better be a second season!!! |
| it better get season 2 or i go to Japan and burn down the animator offices rages for lack of kurumiXD |

It has everything to do with sales. If an anime sells well, or gives a substantial boost to its source adaption (aka the light novel or manga) then it has a good chance of getting a second season. I really hope Date A Live gets a second season. The light novel is selling reasonably well and apparently volume 1 of the BD/DVD is projected to sell about 5k. Those numbers are good but not great, so I hope Date A Live outperforms the projection and secures a second season for sure. |

| Conclusion: Origami a shit. 7/10 overall. Hopefully a season two! |
 |
| If it weren't for the appealing spirits, I wouldn't have bother finishing this anime. |

| Can't believe it's over already. By Yoshinon saying, "To be continued", I hope there will be another season. |
 |
| Kurumi must be saved Shido u horrible not paying attention to rumi chan dont allow her to kill more people shes too beautiful to be a killerQQ |

| Fun little series but pretty generic in the grand scheme of things. At least the girls were funny at times |
| Well there goes Date A Live, overall it was decent in my opinion, some episodes were enjoyable, some quite boring. Dunno how will sales roll in Japan, but I wouldn't have anything against S2. |
 |
| when 1st episode come i was like OMFG another interesting anime hope the main guy like keima in kaminomi*watch the series the heck main just your generic everyday protagonist sigh.... |

| Hm, maybe I shouldn't have marathoned this in the same week I watched The World God Only Knows, the latter is a much, much better take on the harem genre. It was surprisingly enjoyable, but half of the characters were horrible and I had the idea the author came up with the story as he went along writing new chapters instead of having some clear direction from the beginning. For example, it would have been nice if Origami mentioned any of her revenge against the Fire spirit before said Fire spirit appeared. Not sure whether to give it a 4 or a 5. |
 |
| Date A Live. I will miss you. A lot happened in such a short time. I really did like this show, though. ^_^ 9/10 |
 |
| Date A Live was entertaining and enjoyable wouldnt have any problem with a season 2 and im looking forward to that OVA all in all im giving this a 7/10 |
 |
| loved the series 9/10 |

Kurumi should get her own spinoff series... i'd pay to watch it.... I couldn't agree more, she's effing insane. Immediately became a favorite of mine |
 |
| So the last episode, it was pretty good I guess. I would have liked it to be longer instead it had a bit of a rushed feeling. This usually happens though with the adaptations. I guess as a whole Date A Live was decent. I liked most of the girls, the only one I diddnt like was Kurumi. I'm sure I'm one of the few to say this but her arc was the worst. Oragami was ok though she freaked out at the end an was tied to her hospital bed at the end lol. Tohka and Yoshino were great i just wosh they had more screen time. Kotori was my personal favorite because of her personality diffrences. If/when S2 comes out ill definitely be watching it. Overall 7/10 It was good but it should have been longer. Even if the extra episodes were fillers I think most could have enjoyed them. At least we can look forward to the OVA. |
| If strength is justice, then is powerlessness a crime? |
| Hmm hopefully there will be another season because there's still more that needs explaining like what the hell Kurumi is and if Origami really settled her anger. Overall it's a really good show. |
| It was a fun series, and I'll willingly watch season 2 cause I'm interested in how Kurumi is related to Shido and Kotori's past. Along with Tohka's past before meeting Shido. |
 |
| Well, it was nice episode with everything you need. Kotori was super cute and the fight was great for this series standard. Good thing they don't make an original ending that leave no chance for season 2. My rating for this series stay 6/10. |
| season 2 i coming imo , i mean .. hermit said it herself hahahaha Overall , it's good 6/10 |

Neiryu said: He was supposed to get her in the mood and happy then kiss her to seal her powers away, so why was he going to ask her about 5 years ago randomly when he lined everything up so perfectly? If the mission were to fail, then she loses everything that represents her. He was going to gamble on that to inquire if she remembered anything about the fire/killing Origami's parents? Meh. :/ Yeah, that's really off writing. They have injected plot progression with an out-of-place humor, making Shido look lamer than he actually is. Series is an enjoyable ride for me. I like Kortoi's route every much in the last three episodes. But then they had to kill it with Shido's "only like you as sister" line and his almost kiss with Tohka at the end >_< Kotori is very cute and enjoyable tsundere :) |

Roofipl said: obviously there will be a season 2 not only because at the end they kinda say there will be one but also Kurumi showing up to show us more will happen and overal it just aint finished lol It might be likely but it sure isn't obvious. These things depend on disc sales and light novel sales. It is not unprecedented, or unreasonable, to make hints about a new season in the last episode of an anime. However, the new season will only happen if it makes financial sense for the company backing it. That means that BD's, light novels, manga, and merchandise sales need to cover the costs of production. That's why I'm hoping that Date A Live has solid sales. I would love a 10k average like TLRD (To Love-Ru Darkness) but that's probably a little unrealistic. Regardless, I hope sales are high enough to greenlight a season 2. I think volume 1 is predicted to sell around 5k but I hope it outperforms that estimate. |

| Can't wait for the next season! That Kurumi shot really left me intrigued... Always wonder about Yoshinon.... I just...dont event know |
| Shido: I love you, Kotori. Kotori: *blush* I, uh... Shido: As my little sister, that is, Kotori: *kicks shido* Is that it!? Sisterzoned! I laughed so hard on that part. I actually enjoyed this from start to end. I love the fight against Origami using Licorice. I lol at the part where Kotori and Yoshinon interfered with Shido and Tohka's scene. And finally, Kurumi appeared once again. Well, I had fun with this series, even thought a lot of good parts from the LN were cut off. Come on Shidou, you kiss Yoshino too! looking forward for a 2nd season! 7/10 |

| will be expecting season 2! what a troll Yoshinon is in the final scene xD |
| All in all this series was good. Even if the plot as a whole isn't that different from other harems the characters were funny and the art was nice. Hopefully it sells well so there can be a second season someday. |
| Not a bad series. Just nothing special. 6.75/10 |

lightXTC said: And it seems they are mostly missing the points and ideas that are there to appeal to fans of this kind of genre. Well, nothing new regarding the usually cliched and stereotyped views by overseas watchers of this kind of anime. I liked the art/animation and OP/ED theme songs, OP theme was particularly catchy. That's really the only nice things I have to say about this show. I highly suggest to anyone who is interested in doing so that they go ahead and read YuzurihaAsuna and roriconfan's review for this anime. These guys pretty much sum up my opinion on this anime. Final rating: 1/10. And it is just weird that music and art/animation can constitute only one-tenth of the weight you rate an anime. |
| 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. |
| I only liked Kurumi's arc, everything else was pretty boring. Also, dat ending ... Just what? 6/10 to me. |
 |
| hmm good final few seconds with the peeping and yoshi block. |

I think it's because they planned for a heavy Kotori-focus ending while wanted to keep the harem feel. Thus, the half-way kiss is the reset button lol |
| |
| Didn't like this episode so much but I did like the series as a whole. Also that cock-block at the end. |
| omg kurumi what are you doing. ugh. okay there needs to be a second season ("sometime..." -yoshino) and maybe edit their pacing so not all of that last episode was stuck into... one episode. |
| An Ok ending for a rather average series. 6/10 |
| The last episode was a bit rushed imo. That last scene when Yoshinon blocked the kiss was hilarious. Generally this series wasn't that bad at all. Overall score 7/10. |
 |
| A bit disappointed cause the anime is not what i expected from the LN. but not all imagination is the same right? so i think this series is enough. earlier i wanted to give 7/10. but WTH i love the LN and i am amazed that they worked on the anime, so 8/10. Keep going with season 2. wanted so much improvement... |
| if only there was more Kurumi. 5/10. |
| 講廢話,被撞到. |
| Nice Ending But Sad it already ended Good thing yoshinon said to be continued sometime if theres a second season i will really watch it this anime made me smile and made me sad and as always thanks for the good anime |
| Nice ending, it turns out all my doubts were wrong,, It's just somehow a bit toned down... And here i tought that They will truly kiss each other at the end... A bit dissapointed >.< the story was nice, but it seemed a bit ahead and straightforward, it needs more atmosphere in the scene, *or that was just me being ungrateful,,* The charas are all nice,, not that any of them had any chara.development there,, Since the story actually didn't end yet, i can't give a definite rating here, but so far, i would give over all 7/10 xD hoped there are second season with more better stuffs, this anime had nice potential to get 9/10,, |
