Origami is one major reason why the anime is one of my favorite shows this season LOL Yeah, and the "disgusting" things that she does is part of the reason LOL LOL
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

3/5

Stake for the overwhelming part of the time useless, the only nice thing stonera and maybe a little bit, with the judgment of others and the swimsuits, those really cute girls that make up the difference in the appearance of the protagonists of that by wearing simple as anonymous swimwear , really bad! only interesting parts in which one asks questions, the rest is boring ~!

Am i the only one wondering how you can go in a swimming pool while still holding a hand puppet and ribbons and other hair garments like the beads Yoshino was wearing?
Don't you usually take those off when entering the pool?

Episode was ok i guess mostly fan service.

So Kurumi arc got postponed for the mean time and this series(Or season if there'll be another season) will use Kotori arc as the ending for it.

Anyway, fun episode but Origami ruined the mood most of the time. There should be more episodes for that make up because I won't satisfy on just 1 OVA. :(

I couldn't agree more. I never liked this cunt since the very first time I saw her.
Yoshino it's the cutest thing I've ever seen.
And the lack of Kurumi made me feel this episode kinda empty.

This was pretty much a calm before the storm episode with lots of swimsuits, a kinda lame one to be honest. I guess the season final will be an epic battle between Origami and the spirits, that's what i hope for at least.

Origami <333, that nap pose. And Tohka:


Date with Kotori huh? She seems a lot more serious than I had thought. Oh wait, it's not really a date now since Tohka and Yoshino is here. Ah damn it.

Ya, basically fan service episode. Next week's the finale. I wonder how the series will conclude.

Origami is just so daring isn't she


I doubt this series with actually 'conclude' in the next episode. There is still so much left to do and questions that needs to be answered, I doubt they could fit it all into one last episode.

MIlitary Zapped Ultimate Grind Instrument AKA MIZUGI.

Dem swimsuits. Guess Yoshino won that battle.
But nice commentary by the Vice-Commander.

I like the OST during the swimming pool scenes, especially the piano OP.
And no one goes down a slide like that, lol.

Go, Shidou! Show Kotori that you don't need Fraxinus to help you!
Oh no, Origami found out it was Kotori.

I'm expecting an "epic" battle between Origami (who'll steal the suit) and Kotori (who'll get angry somehow). I expect Tohka and Yoshino joining, too. Shidou will probably save the day.

One question though...
Where the hell is Kurumi?
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

:c the preview for episode 12 it seem like everyone was leaving. I hope everyone is alright in the next episode and everything is fine. But, this episode was pretty interesting. Glad to see Tohka and Yoshino pitch in the help ease anything with kotori. Sucks that Shido had to hear Reine injecting kotori with drugs. ;/ also hope that Origami doesn't do anything too crazy. But, she has her reasons.

this might be a little weird but, Shido x Kotori please? :3
Shido x Tohka is fine too. c;

I won't bother pointing change again. But I just want that Origami get more active role in the future LN. I just feel that her character is wasted.

And one other thing is why is the production team is stubornly keep the trio in every scene is a wonder.
Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together.

Oh, so we are at the finale already?! Perfect timing since I just finished 11 episodes today XD

Does anyone think Kotori looks like Kuuko from Nyaruko-san? lol. At first, I did not pay much attention to her character because she acted bossy & tsundere toward Shidou. But eventually Kotori's antics get into me and I like her the most now. Her tragic past does tug my heartstrings, and she is the one protecting Shidou all these times.

People who played the VN might have an answer for this. I think the figure beside Kotori maybe Shidou's spirit form himself. Maybe he is a half-spirit as well, and his spirit erased their memories. Another possibility is some 3rd party caused Kotori to become a spirit. I think the first Space Earthquake that killed 150 million people might have caused by a single spirit, making it the most powerful one in the series, a "god." Maybe it had a hand in turning Kotori into a spirit?!

I like the fact that the whole anime makes you feel like watching a VN where you've chosen Kotori's route. Other characters that were thought to be important are conveniently pushed to the sidelines for Kotori x Shidou relationship: Kurumi just "disappeared;" Tohka just "reduced to a food eating fanatic;" and Origami "turned antagonist." Since the characters are playing dating sim in the anime, it feels like watching a dating sim of people playing dating sim LOL.

If this only has one season, a definite heroine is Kotori. In the likely event that this has another season, the secret about that tragedy 5 years ago will be revealed later.

Date a Live isn't a VN, it's a Light Novel :p
The anime adapts the first four volumes : Dead end Tohka, Puppet Yoshino, Killer Kurumi, Itsuki Sister.
We're in the fourth volume since episode 10.

I knew Origami would find out about Kotori being "Efreet" or whatever, way too predictable. Now she's going to screw things up. Well, I never liked Origami anyway so I'm glad I get to hate her even more.

Like others, I think this looks more and more like a Kotori ending. Which is fine by me, I like Kotori the most.

That moment when Kotori run away to bathrooms and Shido saw her drugging herself was almost heartbreaking.

On that video - are there two Kotoris? (like in OP?) Good with white ribbons and bad with black ones? Like not only in her mind but in real?

And it seems that Origami knows Kotori. Did they meet up in the past?

Last ep next time, I can't believe it's almost over, during past few weeks I grew close to those characters. I hope for next season. But I am afraid they leave many things unexplained.

Also, what about Kurumi? I hope they will make conclusion even for her, I don't think her disappearance on the end of her arc was enough to end this right.

That part was explained in the novel. Actually when Kotori puts on Black Ribbon she basically kills her true self to fit her role as a commander in charge of saving the damn world. They're several occurrence of Shidou waiting for Kotori to put her black ribbons when shit happens.
She's not as the same level as Yoshino who actually has two distinct personalities.

I think you meant to say "his girlfriend"? Or you meant to hint at something about Shido's gender? X-D

Seriously I think Shido is too nice to flat out reject a girl just because she keeps treating him like she is his girlfriend.

You're correct about that part. I didn't check my grammar carefully. After reading part of volume 6 of the LN, I'm a bit confuse about his gender. XD

Your proabably right. Him being too nice to ladies is one of the common traits every male harem protaganist have. And i don't think it's a bad thing. Origami is a entertaining harem member.
