 The official website of Date A Live announced a new anime for the series on Wednesday. The November 2019 issue of Dragon Magazine (pictured) will publish a special feature on the series on Friday.Synopsis Thirty years ago, the Eurasian continent was devastated by a supermassive "spatial quake"—a phenomenon involving space vibrations of unknown origin—resulting in the deaths of over 150 million people. Since then, these quakes have been plaguing the world intermittently, albeit on a lighter scale. Shidou Itsuka is a seemingly average high school student who lives with his younger sister, Kotori. When an imminent spatial quake threatens the safety of Tengu City, he rushes to save her, only to be caught in the resulting eruption. He discovers a mysterious girl at its source, who is revealed to be a "Spirit," an otherworldly entity whose appearance triggers a spatial quake. Soon after, he becomes embroiled in a skirmish between the girl and the Anti-Spirit Team, a ruthless strike force with the goal of annihilating Spirits. However, there is a third party that believes in saving the spirits: "Ratatoskr," which surprisingly is commanded by Shidou's little sister! Kotori forcibly recruits Shidou after the clash, presenting to him an alternative method of dealing with the danger posed by the Spirits—make them fall in love with him. Now, the fate of the world rests on his dating prowess, as he seeks out Spirits in order to charm them.

| Mildly looking forward to this! Sadly, I haven't found this series to be very entertaining but Season 3 in my opinion was the best so here's to hoping they'll be able to keep the momentum and deliver! I'll be watching Fantasia Bunko event live in hopes for more info on this. |

| Well,if that's true than this season is gonna be blast believe me vol 13 is where the real game starts though I wonder if they will re adapt vol 12 because the things they have cut in previous seasons will gonna be play a really huge role in the upcoming arcs. Well, can't wait for best girl Mukuro to made her debut. Though I wonder how many vol are they going to adapt cuz I don't want them to butcher this season as well. |
| Please let IMS adapt Date A Live again, JC Staff crewed royally with the third season. |
 |
| People shitting on S3 while S2 look comparatively worse. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |

| So... Will this be season 4 or just an adaptation for those side-stories like Date A Bullet or something like that? Sorry if someone thinks I'm stupid 😂😂 |
| Awesome news! I was worried we would have to wait long for another "Date A Live" anime, like the almost 4 years we had to wait between the "Mayuri Judgment" movie and the third season. It's great that there's already a new project announced. |

"New anime project" can mean either a new season, Specials, OVA, a movie, etc. The article says that the November issue of Dragon Magazine will publish a special feature on the series on Friday, so we'll have to wait for that to get more details. |

| I will look forward to it, as long as JC Staff ain't going to make this new Date a Live Anime Project. S3 story was really good, just quality was lacking! I'll always welcome more Kurumi, Tohka and Yoshino! :D |
 |
| Here's hoping it's another new season, as the story really started to get properly interesting in season 3 (even if the animation and art quality fell through the floor). |
| Better than the last one I hope... |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| Excellent. Now that I think about it I should get Rio for the PS4 sometime. |

Don't get the Western version, Sony censored and removed some of the CG's. |

| I think I am dreaming. Yessss!! |
| More Kurumi please. I hope this anime eventually get complete adaptations. |
| More Natsumi! Yay! Is the Steam version censored then? |
 |
| I've seen the announcement yesterday and i hope it is a 4th season, because the story will be entering more important territory during Nia's arc and possibly Mukuro's. I still wanted to see a re-adaptation of the Itsuka Disaster volume because many important details were left out in the dust. The announcement of the studio will reveal my happiness or my sadness. Because what comes next MUST NOT BE BUTCHERED, AT ALL. |
 |
| I think it might be a new movie. |
 |
MrAwesome2018 said: I think it might be a new movie. Hope you are wrong, I wanna see Nia and Mushi-sama adapted. Besides, we really need to reach those Kurumi later arcs cuz that is the real deal, that said Origami's was also the real deal, yet JCStaff fucked like that, lets hope it is not them, or if it is, that it gets a proper production schedule for this one. |
 |
No, the Steam version is unmodified. |
| "Well, she's flatter than a pancake" -Mimi Alpacas "Woof" -Tobiichi Origami "Are you trying to turn the dormitory into a strip club!?! -Atena Saotome |
| Still have Vietnam flashbacks from the last episode butchering an entire volume. Also, bad animation in most episodes. Miku did not even resembled herself in episode 1, ugh... Just bankrupt already, JC Staff. Index III, OPM II, DaL III, you unlearned how to make animation and adaptation... |
| FGO NA Code: 482.072.599 (F2P thug life of savings...) Ben-to! best nonsensical action anime. Ever. |
| A few years ago, I would have been salty that this keeps getting new anime...but now that the Raildex verse is finally back, I'm satisfied. |

|
| No staff announced, huh? Well, from what I've heard and seen, season 3 was quite a mess. IIRC a fair number of episodes were outsourced to Kadokawa's own animation studio ENGI, so maybe they will take over from here. |

| Still contemplating on whether to watch the third season knowing that J.C.Staff handled it poorly, but I'll be damned if I skip the Kurumi spin-off. The animation could be PowerPoint-level and I'd still watch it. |
