The Yamai twins are going at it from Shido, bad timing when sensei came in XD

Yup, Some fanservice we got in here. Much difficult where Shido have to rub sunblock for the twins. Felt some yuri all of a sudden. Bad luck for Ellen when she is getting stalled.

Damn, Tohka is strong when playing volleyball, so as the Yamai Twins. Those talk from the twins felt sympathy for Shido. Nice chat from Tohka, but something bad is happening for the Twins...

Mm, beach episode again. The yuri undertones are strong in this one
Seriously though, these twins...

Eh the competition continues like how I remember from the LN. OST was decent I guess. Tohka was cute as usual. I'm not sure which of the twins to root for yet though. And also, Origami in a bit of trouble there too.

Fanservice intensifies xD But I expected this since I read the LN. The pace of the episode felt good, interesting to see the Bandersnatch full design and Ratatoskr is ready to fight.
I don't know why but in the anime I like Yuzuru more, in the LN I liked Kaguya more.

Damn that scene on the bed and with the suncreme *_*

Dat "Sore Sore Sore Sore" OST when he fell naked on sensei XD

Kaguya and Yuzu are both so lewd :3 DEM BODIES *A*

Poor Ellen being treated like that XD Really can't take her seriously hahaha Dat S&M sand art XD

DEM MIZUGI! These sisters are HOT! And the sunblock applying scene with both of them on top of eachother was sexy as hell *A*

The sister combo was awesome and cute in the volleyball <3 It's obvious they're tsundere towards the other XD

Kaguya is way cuter when she's talking normally <3

The scene with each of them telling Shido to choose the other. Dat Yuzuru smile was so adorable HNNNNNGGGG

Twins in your bed. What more can you ask for.

Pretty good episode. The fanservice was really good. The second half got petty serious. The twins have a weird relationship with each other. Still love how much they care about each other. If to fight each other. Yea. Anyway can't wait for next episode seems like Kotori is coming back.

ep 4/5 nice to see some action with Spirits again.

Shido couldn't be more luckier to have both Kaguya and Yuzuru going at him. ;)
That sound effect when sensei noticed Shido's .. *ting. XD

Yamai twins looks nice in swimsuits. ;)
Shido applying sunblock on them while they were on top of each other was hot!

Ellen gets interrupted in her mission once again..
That masochistic sand-art with Ellen punishing Hiroto. XD

Kaguya and Tohka became kinswomen and Origami being Yuzuru's master. XD
Reine came at the right time before matters go out of hand.

Damn, that surf! Tohka must want to know Shido's embarrassing secret. XD
Yamai twin's combo was nice. Them being tsundere to each other. XD

Kaguya and Yuzuru telling Shido to not choose her but the other..
Shido is in a dilemma.. Too bad they found out about each other's wish..

Meanwhile, Origami and Reine encounter an undefined mecha.
Yamai sisters are engaged in battle once again.

Good episode, but still no Kurumi.. and Kotori was missing as well..

I just don't see what's up with this so called "sequel." I am still wondering why Date A Live needed a sequel. I mean aside from luring money from the guys hitting puberty and getting raging boners, I don't see why this show needed a sequel.

Honestly, this can be just classified as softcore porn and call it a day.

I mean don't get me wrong, I love the boobs but not when it gets prioritized from the so called plot that they were going with this. In fact, the boobs are the plot pretty much.

I try to like the twins and all but I just can't because their personalities are just so unoriginal. I have seen one too many shows where the main female lead is just your average tsundere or quiet girl with no other background of interest.
EDIT: Adding onto the twins about something I just remembered, they're willing to DISAPPEAR for the other person with NO development for the viewers to be like "Oh ok, well that kinda makes sense" like wut.. Like DISAPPEAR, DAW'. LIKE NO MORE. IT'S NOT SOMETHING TO TALK LIGHTLY OF. I DON'T CARE HOW NICE YOU ARE, YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO GIVE YOUR LIFE FOR THE OTHER PERSON. And then of course they fight in the end which contradicts what they just said and it makes my hand levitate and high-fives my face.

So why do I even bother watching this you ask? Because I'm a guy and I love boobs but I love the story much more and this just doesn't have it.

And oh I forgot about Shido and Tohka. Shido is your average scapegoat of a male lead for the sake of having a male lead being oh so pure and not doing the dirty when it is literally just knocking on your wood. No, like seriously, in that bed scene, HE HAD NO URGES; I'M CALLING HOMOSEXUAL ON SHIDO, YOU HEARD IT FROM ME FIRST but seriously that type of male lead is overdone and we need a different personality for our male leads.

As for Tohka, I don't know. She's just there. Like so FAR, she's just there to hang around and pretty much for the first season she is just there and pretty much forgotten about. Nothing speshul bout Tohka BUT she's gonna be playing Princess Peach from what my "Spidey-Senses" are telling me just like Asuna from SAO YEA DAS RIGHT I SAID IT!!

Anyways, so far I would rate this show a WHOPPING 6/10 and I think it is a fair score because the "BOOBIES" bonus points are added into the rating. -4 for the stereotypical characters and the lack of development if there were any.

NOTE: I am just your average anime enthusiast so take the things that I say with a grain of salt.

Random Thoughts: Shido needs to get sniped a few more times because it was kinda fun to watch. That's-So-Lame girl is the best character in this show (2nd to Kurumi) SHOTS FIRED!!

What the heck is up with this show? The first episode was okay but each episode after it's becoming harder and harder to stay interested.

Renne-san was pretty funny though. Staging the volley game and setting Shido up like that xD

One thing I find curious is that Tohka/Yuzuru/Kaguya etc. hit the ball hard enough to crack the ground but the ball itself is perfectly find. Where can I get one of these heavy duty volleyballs?

It was unexpected how Yuzuru and Kaguya want the other to live. I bet in the end if they do combine into one spirit they'll both be alive inside like a split personality.

Kaguya and Yuzuru sure took taking care of Shido to the extreme, you could the fire in their eyes as they were trying to undress him and get to his ass faster XD. Lucky sensei, she saw how the "thing" looks like probably for the first and last time in her life.
It looks like Shido can give one mean sunscreen massage that makes even powerful spirits moan in wonder, oh Shido you silly little man.
Things just got serious! Kaguya asks Shido to choose Yuzuru, while Yuzuru asks him to choose Kaguya. The twins find out what each said and start the final battle that will decide who's the winner, all while a battle between the two airships is about to ensue.

It improved its fanservice starting from the night to the day at the beach. Tohka was so ravishing in her swimsuit as well as the Yamai twins. Now that I've seen it, Tohka and Kaguya have the same personality and Yuzuru and Origami are too. Still waiting to see Kurumi have the spotlight.

Great episode.

Not as many errors in animation as the first 2 episodes. Of course they do put the budget toward the fanservice.. heh(a bit too much for my taste). Pretty decent episode. Twins being twins. Kinda sad to see Origami just "there" and not a part of anything really. Tohka is sweet as ever.
Looking forward to moving on from the twins arc and finally getting to Miku though.

Next episode will finally see some actual serious moments.

Dat twin fanservice with the bed at the beginning and suncream at the beach. I really liked how they showed the twins side-by-side when they were telling Shido to root for the other one. Glad to see that we are finally going to get to the action scenes next ep. Overall this ep gets a 8.5/10. Can't wait for the next one.

It is getting better but from where it started that's really not saying much because I don't see how it could get any worse from the first episode. I watch a lot of harems so the over usage of fan service doesn't make me go bonkers but in the last 40 minutes we've had spa, beach, and volleyball scenes. They need to get into some actual story going or this is going to get flamed more that I.S. season 2 did.

Kaguya and Yuzuru actually like each other
but do not want to admit it
now that they came to fight, will be more laborious to Shido
and Tohka is kawaii too, already has the title of best spirit
I miss Yoshino also ..
__________

Kaguya e Yuzuru na verdade se gostam
mas não querem admitir isso
agora que elas voltaram a brigar, vai ser mais trabalhoso para Shido
e Tohka é kawaii demais, ja tem o titulo de melhor espirito

That fanservice... was over 9000!

Anywho...

Decent episode, but I felt that it wasn't as strong as last weeks. More fanservice than plot in this one, they need to keep a good balance like they did last week.

So, the twins actually care very deeply for each other. Each separately telling Shido to choose the other, but not wanting to show that sort of "weakness" to each other. The duel at the end they also make it clear, "The one who falls first wins" is obviously saying that they're willing to give their life for the other.

Tohka is as adorable as ever, it almost feels like her and Origami are getting turned into background characters this season though. But, the ultimate background character so far is Yoshino, which is rather sad because she's been nothing but soap opera comedy so far.

Hopefully we get more plot advancement next week.

Gonna give this episode a solid 7/10
Odds are I'm not going to find my way back to a thread after my first post, it happens on occasion but not often.

This season has a lot of fanservice than last season. Shido is such a coward in the beginning.. 2 hot twins basically offering themselves and he runs away? lol!

I like how the twins actually care for each other but refuses to let the other know. I enjoyed the volleyball scene where they worked together.

The twins sure are naughty, he got nearly raped there xD

"Maji Hikuu wa" <3 Her name is Mii Fujibakama btw, in case anyone was interested.

I still like Origami more than Tohka. Good teamwork there between twins.

Shido: "What is that?" Shido, that's sibling love for you.

Better episode than last? Not really sure. 6/10. Kurumi, come already!
