Personally, I found this series to be decent to the point of watchable. I won't lie however.. when I first saw the title "Date A Live", I was more than a little skeptical in regards to how enjoyable the series would be. After watching the first few episodes, (I typically watch anime in Japanese first and English second to make a comparison) I was a bit conflicted. Sure, the show seems in many ways to be directly ripped off of other anime in the area of plot/storyline, and a lot of the time, it even seems a bit silly. However, there is a certain depth
...
to each of the characters that makes this show enjoyable to a degree.
Regrettably, it doesn't follow the light novel series as closely as one might prefer. Even so, I certainly wouldn't mind seeing this anime continue as it doesn't explain many things that are made clearer in the novels.
My advice on this one, watch at your own discretion while ignoring any reviews that do almost nothing but put it down. Such ignorance is unbecoming, and if people were to believe it more than not, they'd never get to watch anything.
This series is worth watching, reserving judgement for afterwards. All people have different tastes in regards to what they think is "good". Besides, I find it hard to believe someone who types out a summary in their review even when it explicitly says not to. Just watch the first couple episodes and make your own decision.
