| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Ah we got to see more of Origami's past, which isn't a pretty one to look at. So this arc is definitely about her and how they plan to do deal with Origami. Poor Shido, I wonder how he plans to get back the Origami he once knew. The fact that he feels helpless trapped and alone down in that pit while tied up makes me feel sorry for him. |
 |
| Some good action scenes this time, what a surprise. And Natsumi and Yoshino's blooming friendship was a cute sight. If only the badass Origami won't disturb it for a little longer.... |
 |
| This is a big step for Origami, and I wonder what they are gonna do with this arc. Hope they do a good job. |

| Finally getting to the one of the best arc in dal series. Well, finally getting to the part of Origami's part and will get to see Shido and Kurumi pair in action now. Also, waiting for. |
| Honestly, Origami is just a retarted character. Say what you like but from the beggining her behavior is just stupid and annoying. |
| Not even Natsumi can resist Yoshino's cuteness despite beeing super cute herself It's sweet seeing Yoshino wanting to spend time with Natsumi and them forming a friendship. I liked how Natsumi thought Yoshino was out for revenge for the pranks she pulled on her and her friends during their entire conversation, while Yoshino was just nervous and gathering courage to ask her out. Poor Yoshino having to spend her day alone when the others are at school up to this point, but now she finally has a friend to hang out with. Origami Arc begins, waiting for a week for another episode will be even more challenging now, looking forward to a lot more Origami |

| just because I’ve gotten weaker, doesn’t mean that you got stronger, does it? |
| I was waiting for Kurumi to show up at the end when Shido was screaming for help...but to no avail. This was actually a pretty interesting episode. I'm interested to see where this arc will take us. |

| Looks like we're in for a much more serious arc this time, and frankly I'm very interested to see where this will take us from this point. |

ReaperCZ said: well she could've fit in quite well if she wasn't this stupidHonestly i dont mind characters like her, but for me she just doesnt simply fit in Date a Live series. |
eb2 said: I know right, during first Date a Live I was like I didnt really mind Origami but didnt really like Kurumi. Now i dont mind Kurumi at all and i hate that stupid Origami, her character is stupid during all 3 series so far, there is 0 developtment and all she does is annoy life of spirits and she is greasy on top of that....ReaperCZ said: well she could've fit in quite well if she wasn't this stupidHonestly i dont mind characters like her, but for me she just doesnt simply fit in Date a Live series. |
| More of Origami's past, perhaps we will learn more about the spirit that caused all that destruction later on. Lmao what a way to wake up. Sad to see Origami lose her way like that, she was enjoying life with Shido and everyone. As expected, Origami is on another level thanks to that suit, the spirits will have to be a full power to fight her off now. A battle between spaceships, quite interesting so far how they are using territory like that. I think Kurumi will finally show up in this series and be the one to save Shido, if not then maybe it will probably by Natsumi and Yoshino. Oh good, full power fight next time, looking forward to it. |

| So it's Origami's arc, and this time she is with DEM and now fight them sprites, |
Ah, I see Natsumi is a woman of culture as well. eb2 said: ReaperCZ said: totally agree, shes one of the worst characters in the seriesHonestly, Origami is just a retarted character. Say what you like but from the beggining her behavior is just stupid and annoying. I think it's the girl who only literally says "That's lame." to everything. Just....why?????? It's not even funny lol. I am sure Origami will return to normal eventually. I am even starting to doubt if the info she got for switching sides is even legit. |
| Found this episode rather difficult to watch, mostly because Origami is such a boring character. Hoping this isn't as long as Natsumi's arc. |
| Damn, shit already went down this episode on the beginning of Origami Arc. Honestly, i believe that her sudden change of heart has a hidden reason behind it that maybe we might find out later.. it was definitely not normal for her to change her behaviour this suddenly. Well, Shido is screwed xD or so i think... Hmm, i believe that someone will help him get out of there and i do have a strong hunch now. I think that he and Kurumi will pair up again just like before, i can feel it, she will be coming back in no time and that time i think it will be on the next episode. Well, so far, it has been a fun and interesting season! Really eager to see how things will progress in this 2nd half of the show! |
 |
| It's sad to see Origami turning her back to all the spirits she was trying to get along with for so long.. She kidnaps Shidou to keep him out of harms way. Natsumi in adult form is amazing. It's adorable that both the loli's appreciate each others cuteness! Not gonna lie, I would have loved to see a bit more of them playing around in the city. Kotori is also in quite the pinch! |
 |
| Origami is cool and all, but where's my yangire waifu? |
| That explosion at the start was way too big. It's as if they inserted the wrong clip. Somehow, it had to be intense enough to leave a crater where Origami's parents were standing, but small enough to not kill Origami too. Sandalphon's new shading looks odd and out of place. All the gradients make its surface look rounded, but it originally had flat shading, and lots of sharp transitions. ReaperCZ said: Eh.... She's Tohka's counterpart, and opposite. She's calm when Tohka is impulsive, perverted when Tohka is shy, white hair vs dark hair, analytical vs instinctive, and when Origami had lost it against Kotori in the waterpark, Tohka's was the voice of reason.Honestly i dont mind characters like her, but for me she just doesnt simply fit in Date a Live series. Eh... is Natsumi another lesbian? Mattinator95 said: She also starts with an inexplicably high attachment to Shido. Wonder why. O.o?Has anyone forget the part where in season 1 origami acted like she knew shidou but it's was the first time shidou met her |

 |
| In the end, tobiitchi origami still tobiitchi origami |
 |
| Intense episode! We got to know even more about Origami's past, and now she returned to be her first self, of course i prefer her in the other way! Shido is chained by Origami, i wonder how he would free himself, hope that Kurumi appears to help him! Spaceships figth were awesome, i am curious to see what happened to Fraxinus, hope that Kotori didn't lose that fast! Hyped for next episode! |
 |
Just what this show needed Idk why, but I never get tired seeing this in Anime. Probably except in Fairy Tail |
| I'm watching this mostly for Origami's story arc, but suddenly wanting to kill Tohka because she felt that she had been living peacefully with enemies for too long feels a bit far-fetched, even for Origami. |
TakataFeb 15, 2019 11:14 PM
| Everyone cool ideas and all, but dont forget that we are watching Date a Live Series xD It is not even drama, it is comendy so it is basically settled that there is happy ending for Thoka and Shido <3 peace out Origami fanboys |
I want this to happen to me every morning 😏 |
Jagh said: Dont worry dude, its DAL both 2 first seasons were predictable, ofc Kurumi is going to save them once again, Date a Live is comendy not a Drama and ofc Origami is bitch, no surprise :D knew it from beggining, don’t worry, there will be happy ending :) maybe not for Origami, however she can die for all i care. Selfish annyoing characterDate a live really lowering the bar here... they're really going into this bullshit generic evil company and betrayal of a friend thing eh? evil guy: join is idiot: no evil guy: we have knaawwwledge idiot: ok. cant get that anywhere else. might as well join you, obviously evil group, and betray my friends and the guy I'm unnaturally obsessed with. I wonder how this will turn out. surely not with her redemption and everyone being happy... cause that hasn't happened a billion times... fucking hate this stupid ass plotline in shows. At least there was a cute yoshino/natsumi scene.... |
| So, Origami is now fighting to the death with others and Kotori and her crew is busy with the "world's greatest wizard" all the while Shido is tied up in a chair in the middle of nowhere, funny. |
| “What do you do when there is an evil you cannot defeat by just means? Do you stain your hands with evil to destroy evil? Or do you remain steadfastly just and righteous even if it means surrendering to evil?” ― Lelouch Vi Britannia |
| At least nothing could be worse than previous episode. That aside this one was pretty good! Natsumi's reaction to Yoshino was the best, loli power =/ Still the whole season was thinking that Shido's reactions look rather strange and random. Feels like he is just shouting for no reason, might be some underdevelopment in general ... |

MomoSinX said: yeah she will eventually but why in the first placeAh, I see Natsumi is a woman of culture as well. I think it's the girl who only literally says "That's lame." to everything. Just....why?????? It's not even funny lol. I am sure Origami will return to normal eventually. I am even starting to doubt if the info she got for switching sides is even legit. Also i prefer adult natsumi more :3 |
| Damn, they left us with quite the cliffhanger. |
JJH_ said: that is a real danger. It annoys me too. Lots of jackasses running around.I'm just going to stop interacting with anime fans altogether. There's a 99% risk of getting spoiled everywhere. |
| Nice oppai catch Shidou. |
