Yeah like Campione! :) Still wanting a S2. :)Metazoxan wrote:Keiichi Morisato wrote:Some people who have already watched the preair are commenting that this is taking the harem route. I really dont want to see that bc reall its going to ruin the story.
IDK what Kotori and team did to revive Shido but it was weird and still dk how Shido knew to push Tohka outta the way.
well you knew form the start this was going to be a harem series right? I mean just looking at the poster you can see I think 5 girls on it. Give it a chance some harems actually do turn out pretty well.

had a feeling it was. Harems dont bother me per say as a genre, I just hate pussy MCs that leave all the girls hanging (as it seems in 98% of them)

Yeah I don't want this to be a harem either unless it's done right but even then not sure. As for pushing her outta the way, well, 3 theories.
1. The mic he had in his ear let him know since they could've transmitted something to him even if it was on a subconscious lv.
2. He saw her before she sniped, maybe it was the lens he saw due to light or something.
3. I have no clue, something else though.
1. I forgot about that earpiece
2. I think he saw light or something gleaming off the gun

True but this series has a couple things going for it. First of all most of the harem cast don't seem to be human. So if he doesn't pick just one in the end there is at least a chance of a true harem ending since those girls don't likely follow what society considers normal or proper (Thus they could easily be very open to the idea). Second he HAS to romantically pursue each spirit as that is the plot. So he can't really be a complete pussy with the girls and will need to make some kinda decision at the end (Though this will likely not happen within a single season). So there is some reason to hope this series will not end up like a lot of harem series.

Your arguments...
They are valid.
As far as I know there are 4 volumes of the LN series. Lets hope for another but AIC+ isnt too big on sequels (I want more CPC damn it!)

Keiichi, CPC, is that Cat Planet Cuties cuss if it is then I 110% agree with you. I SOOO want another season of that and a proper ending too.
As for DAL, well one more thing to consider here. There's going to be an OVA so that gives us a few clues.

Re: Date A Live Discussion Thread
^ Thought so, after all that's what I shortened it too when I was posting I was watching it. Became too much to type. And Waaa! Yeah, thanks for the reminder that it's in Dec. and not July. :( Why are OVAs months apart from when the anime and more importantly, why is THIS ONE nearly a year apart? Ah well. At least in the mean time we've got DAL and other anime to watch. :)

Man I'm starting to feel bad for the MC. He's getting a forced harem. Also I want to strangle that puppet like Tohka did.

Might I add that damn Tobiichi is jealous, they barely know each other (well Tohka and Shido barely know each other too) but still as calm as Tobiichi is you wouldnt think she gets jealous like that. I think shido needs to explain the plan to her. For all we know, she'd probably understand and Tohka showing up at the most in opportune time. Now her I can see getting extremely jealous, and she did.
Also there is one side character girl that all she says is he or she makes me sick. Saying nothing but that is making me sick!
People that have already seen the Ep 5 raw
- !!!! EPISODE 5 SPOILERS, OPEN AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!:
- I warned you! Dont blame me or go crying.:
- are reporting that another accidental kiss happens between shido and yoshino (in which her clothes disappear like tohka's) and again tohka just happens to show up at the worst time and runs off again extremely jealous. Also something about tobiichi in a maid outfit too...

Date A Live PS3 Game's 5-Minute Promo Streamed
ANNAnime News Network wrote:
Game developer Compile Heart began streaming the second promotional video for its Date A Live ~Rinne Utopia~ video game for PlayStation 3. The video features the main theme song "Date in Utopia" by sweet ARMS (a unit formed by voice actresses Iori Nomizu, Misuzu Togashi, Kaori Sadohara, and Misato).
All of the cast from the anime adaptation of Koushi Tachibana's light novel series will be returning for this "spirit-capturing adventure" game. In addition, Kana Hanazawa (Kobato., Sketchbook ~full color'S~) will play the new titular character Rinne.
The "spirit-capturing" game allows the player to interact with all of the heroines in a school setting. According to a teaser by the light novels' publisher Enterbrain, players can also go beyond the “date,” and even see their love interest as a pregnant wife in the future after marriage.
The game will ship on June 27. The limited edition will come with a special book that features Tachibana's Rinne Bathtime novel and previously unreleased illustrations, as well as an original drama CD. People who pre-order the game will also receive a separate drama CD.

Re: Date A Live Discussion Thread
IF we get an ending to this show I want him to pick Tohka or else I'm setting fire to stuff. Tobiichi seems like she has been stalking Shido so I think her getting jealous isn't that odd, just makes her more creepy lol.
Spoiler from when I read character bios on MAL.

- The last girl is the bad guy and Shido's sister is a spirit as well.

Re: Date A Live Discussion Thread
Tobiichi is really starting to amuse me. I didn't like her at first because she looked like a typical "Revenge" character (Something I have really grown tired of after Sasuke killed it) but she seems to be half dropping the whole revenge thing after killing Shido. Plus the ever growing hints that she has been stalking Shido for a very long time are amusingly creepy. Still don't like how the sister switches personalities but at least they had her switch back for a little bit showing that she didn't completely abandon her other face. I'm also liking how while Tohka's reactions are a little cliche they aren't exaggeratedly so. When he walks in on her bathing she simply hits him and that is it there isn't a massive over the top freak out scene just a fairly natural reaction. When she sees the kiss she is very understandably upset but she actually holds herself together fairly well considering.
Over all this series is a cliche harem series but it feels like the writers are trying to be a little different at the same time. Half the scenes are what I expected them to be but they still feel a little different. You knew the argument was going to make bunny girl run away but you didn't know it was going to be purely by accident due to Tohka not knowing how important the puppet was. So while it's no master piece it does deserve at least some praise based on what I've seen so far.

Re: Date A Live Discussion Thread
Ah I see so in other words they removed it and said you removed it? YT I love you but also dislike you at time's. I recently found out they removed the OP song for Oreshura (Girlish Lover) which is one of my fav songs but they left the ED song and to top it all off while I like the ending song it's not as good as the OP song.Keiichi Morisato wrote:Natsuru-san wrote:I see you removed the vid Keiichi.

Anyway just letting you know there's some lag a bit and it's only half the ep. (11 or so mins) Don't know if you were aware of any of that or not but figured I'd mention it incase. Btw the lag isn't too bad but still noticeable.
