| Wow I didn't think they'd actually kill Keita. Next ep looks fun, there weren't any tanks in the game but I'm not surprised to see them. |

| I can't believe the anime actually killed Keita Thank god, he was annoying Considering they are introducing the second septentrion next episode, it looks like this anime could actually be 2-cour. If they keep it as slow paced as they have. Hinako and Fumi <3 |
| Didn't expect them to kill Keita. Gives me a feeling that they might kill most of the characters. |

If they keep it as slow paced as they have. Hinako and Fumi <3 I hope Fumi's personality will have enough screentime. Her quirks are just too cute. And yeah, I'm saying this thing about a 2-cours since last week. Monday isn't even the "longer" day, so if they take 3 eps for it, a 2 cours is a given. Even with 2 eps for each remaining day it wouldn't really work anymore now. And they'll probably put some FATE scenes and background too... The OVA thing would be very good but I'm not sure about it. It would be quite complicated to do since there are more differences between the endings than in p4. It would be awesome though. Also. THE scene with Trumpeter (you all know what I'm talking about) will be awesome. I can't wait for it. |
| Mediocre at best. Not grabbing my attention that much. |

| I didn't think they would kill off Keita in the same episode he was introduced, caught me off guard with that one. I'm still wondering how on earth they are going to fit this into a 13 episode series. Looking forward for next week's episode. |
    |
| Hence, Final Destination cellphone version started.. xD |
 |
| Man why did they have to kill off Keita?! I was really starting to like his character. Oh well, awesome episode in my opinion and definitely looking forward to more! |

| Mehh lack of action.. Although liked the ep. |
 |
| Another great episode. Not much to say. THey implemented the auction in quite a decent way, nice. Good bait-and-switch with Keita surviving only to die. Perfectly sets the mood up. Falcie said: Just like in my first playthrough, Keita died. Even if they are changing a lot of things from the game, it's shaping up nicely. I hope Keita is the only one to die...I like my characters alive and depending on the ending I hope he does, tbh. Whatever anime does I just hope that character won't be glorified as there's no glory in what that character wanted. |
 |
| Keita disappeared in the ending video!!! So that probably means that he is really dead [kinda reminds me of Angel Beats ending video too]. Tsk tsk... |
| I'm glad they aren't just going the save everyone route, that would be really boring. |
| Two new summoners. The missing person is the criminal, or rather, she's being controlled by the alien. R.i.P Keita. |

So that probably means that he is really dead [kinda reminds me of Angel Beats ending video too]. Tsk tsk... As they saw Keitas dead face i thought even if you see the future what makes you think you saw the right one~,still was kinda surprised to see him die so soon no one is safe! :(. |

| Didn't expect Keita to die since he didn't die during my play through then again I only played it once. The characters introduction was different than in the game but its nothing important. So a character disappeared from the ED when they died huh, that's pretty depressing. I hope Daichi get a stronger demon soon or he'll be useless in a fight. |

Jetstream_Sam said: Keisuke!?  lol that's why that dude reminds me of someone XD he joins JPs to protect those bullied :P keita dies? meh, kinda see it coming waaaaay before this anime even start (from the trailer). though i kinda like his being tsundere :P you can even get the clue if he'll die, guys. Keita's saved from SHARP IRON WAITING UNDER THE STAIR. Look at his death clip, he's not stabbed to any iron =.= but somehow this reflects what people do in-game. I've seen so many people couldn't save keita in their first playthrough. besides, his death (and possibly hinako's strong will) helps Hibiki to next will be.... about the path |
| this episode is pretty meh although I was surprise that keita died |
| Keita's Death send a lot of us for a Loop, there just wasn't enough time with him on screen for me to get attached to him and like his character so didn't really mean anything to me that he died. other then that decent episode looking forward to next one hopefully lots more action will happen. |
 |
| Nice episode That familiar is pretty strong and it moves on its own? I can grasp what this series want to do now |
| OMG Keita died in 3rd epsiode O____O -tableflip- -goes fan rage- Well true ending is gone, what is this show even aiming for? :/ |
EternalStarlightApr 19, 2013 1:41 AM
| Oh dang I was joking with someone before this ep that Keita would just die and it really happened?? Though honestly, I never really...liked Keita...but still his death was sad. I mean, he was doing nice things during the battle! Where is the arrogant annoying Keita we all know and dislike mildly? Anyways on more possible deaths |
| Just when I am starting to like anime Keita, he died D: Didn't expect Keita to die since Seeing how it's still monday in episode 4, I am worried about the pacing if it is just 13 episodes. |

Uchihafan25 said: With over a dozen of "participation members" and only 1 cour length, the death rate needs to be kept at around 1 per episode, so it is actually a question of who gets killed, and by way of elimination I guess Keita gets the short lot. Man why did they have to kill off Keita?! In fact I think this will also be the case when we see the anime adaptation of the Dangan Ronpa game where there are over a dozen "game participants" and perhaps just 1 cour for the anime. Kill rate needs to stay high so that a winner will emerge at the end. |
| 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. |
Skeeturz said: Also funny that all of the JP's Layers seem to be named after Lovecraft mythos ^ This. I freaking laughed at out when I saw this. There were even the mythos creatures' titles along the side of the screen around 16:39. xD |

| Surprised to see a lot of people having Keita die in their game, i don't exactly remember saving him being hard, but well i always use phantasm/devil speed since those really help to achieve some objectives.

Frost190 said: No way! Keita just made his debut only to die immediately in the episode?! I don't really like Keita in particular, but I think if he's going to die, it'll be better in the next episode instead of in the episode he just made his debut. I'm 98% sure the ending would be anime original. And in one of the trailers, it's shown Hibiki only with Daichi and Io at the terminal (?), so I think they'll be the only ones left in the end (unless later they somehow restore the world like in the Triumphant ending and everyone are alive again). Though, I actually also have another speculation. At the end of the opening, there're words "Let's Survive". The words are the same as the one in Yamato's ending, right? It might be possible that the ending would be Yamato's. Overall still a nice episode. I'm looking forward for the next one. The "let's survive" words are pretty much here since DS1. I would like Yamato's ending but they are here since quite a while, so it's pretty much a theme in the devil survivor serie. now it's possible to get 13 episodes, since there won't be so much characters... It doesn't work if they are going to take 2 or more episode for each day. And the following days have even MUCH MORE things to explain than monday. (dragon stream, shiva, etc)The cracking bits were kind of silly and overdone. The whole thing kind of reminded me of that one episode of Evangelion where the Angel was penetrating Nerv but without as much going on otherwise (And Yamato's a lot less active and a lot more 'Gendoish' in this version too. Wonder if they're playing up the similarities or that's just me.). I didn't realize Fumi was going after the barrier to the tower, though; that part of the game make a whole lot more sense now. Sadly (I pretty much hate EVA), a lot of the endings have a lot in common with EVA. I will not say anything else to avoid spoilers, but the common points are not exactly here for nothing. Tofupika: You KNOW that's the reason they are going to kill him. I still want his FATE events with his cat though. Seeing how it's still monday in episode 4, I am worried about the pacing if it is just 13 episodes. Don't forget that Toradora was also supposed to be a 13-eps on ANN and MAL at the beginning. With over a dozen of "participation members" and only 1 cour length, the death rate needs to be kept at around 1 per episode, so it is actually a question of who gets killed, and by way of elimination I guess Keita gets the short lot. That's not a problem. You also only see everyone for some hours in the game and then don't see them for a while until the end after their chapter. This, and the fact that a 1-cour seems unlikely. Possible, but unlikely. Monday should have been 2 day-long in a 1 - cour. Also, it does have the same director as P4. Which was 2 cour - long, and not bad at all. I don't think he would do such an obvious mistake. |

Whatever anime does I just hope that character won't be glorified as there's no glory in what that character wanted. So um yeah, anyway... Not a huge fan of this episode, but the ending did surprise me. I thought if anyone would die, it'd be the ones with their backs turned in the ending. Glad it won't be so predictable and that people will die. The cracking bits were kind of silly and overdone.

Glad to have Fumi aboard too for next episode (if she's up). which condition? i don't see keita's back turned forward, and hinako's back's shown in one point of an ending.... though the "turning-back" theory makes sense somehow, since Not really... |

| It has been great so far, next episode seems like it's gonna be intense |
 "Can you feel that hybrid rainbow?" |
| Keita died in my playthrough so I wasn't too disappointed (his character seemed annoying :P). Although I hope my favorite characters don't end up dying like him.... |
| Great anime so far! Loved this episode! Cant wait to see more :P |
| I imagine the ED will be looking pretty empty by the end... |
 |
| Im getting very disappointed on this Anime MegaTen games are one of my favourite things, this anime is butchering badly DS2. Seiji Kishi ruined persona 4 the animation and its going to ruin Devil survivor 2 too. also Somebody noticed Keisuke (DS1) at JPs in Osaka  Looks like he is working at JPs now. |
 |
| Wow. I thought Byakko was strong? It didn't do a single shit against the opponent. Lol at Daichi's summons, hope they will be somehow useful in the future cuz I feel sorry for him.

He's not even flaming the series, yet he gets this much hate. Maybe he likes romance more than action... Not that I'm saying Date A Live > Devil Survivor though! |
willardhwright said: Zakkun, about your -MgZ_ said: Wow. I thought Byakko was strong? It didn't do a single shit against the opponent. It's because the opponent can reflect Elec skills,Byakko's ziodyne is pretty much useless against him.  |
| Not liking this, but i'll stick with it. |
 |
| Someone died... |
 |
| A decent episode, not something special, but also not bad. Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta run away from this thread since it seems to be overflowing with spoilers. Just make a frackin "well in a game they XYZ" thread and throw thousands of spoilers there. Getting here to comment on an episode and seeing 90% of comments are not about the episode, but about the future events in a game is fucking annoying. |
| The only things I really like about this show now are the OP and ED songs. The concept seemed cool at first but I'm just meh at everything now. Lost that horror factor the show had in the first ep with the introduction of Nicaea. The MC kinda annoys me at times, ever since he started being all "must-protect-everyone". Well, I'm annoyed by everyone else too tbh. If it doesn't pique my interest again next ep I'll most likely drop. |
| Now we have ms. Fanservice to keep up the show are we? eh. It's ok. 3.5/5 |
Alone on a Friday night? Remember that DIO did nothing wrong! |
| I believe it was a good episode. I've never got to play a lot Devil Survivor 2 on my Nintendo DS, so from this point the plot is new to me I wasn't expecting Keita to die. Daichi and Io seriously need a good grinding session to catch new demons, lol. I'm not too fond about Hibiki's character, he is not a valuable main character so far. |
