Anime Review - Date A Live

In case you haven't watched this yet, better not move your eyes down these text.



Ten years ago, before the start of the story, a huge space anomalies (similar to earthquake, but stronger) wrecked Eurasia and causes death toll of half of million. No one knows what exactly caused these. 

Ten years later, Shido Itsuka, the main character, experiences another spacequake right in his school. He thought of his sister, Kotori, who apparently would probably waiting on a spot outside the school. Apparently, Kotori made him promise to her that whenever things happen, he must get there. Despite everything, he made it there, only to realize another truth - His little sister, Kotori, is actually a commander of the airship Fraxinus, crewed by the organization Ratatoskr. From Kotori, he learns that the culprits who made all these spacequakes are known as Spirits, and Ratatoskr had one goal - Seal their power, so they won't cause more spacequake.

In order to make it so, Shido is given a task. He's the one who will seal them, but to make it so, he must make them fall in love with him. The seal happens after he kisses the Spirits. Thus, his hunt for the Spirits began, and also.... a journey of Harem!

The genre of this story is almost similar to 'The World God Only Knows'. If you look it closely, he's hunting spirits too. And he's kissing the target.

Keima captured Ayumi, the first heroine of the series. Note that this  part, and Keima himself, are not realted in  Date a Live. I'm just equating them

Unlike most harem anime you ever seen, this one, Date A Live, had so many combinations of heroine. The heroines are vary in how they act with Shido. Tsundere-lover? Yandere fan? Kuudere fever? Dandere lolicon? Imouto complex? All you can find here, trust me.

From left to right : Kurumi Tokisaki (Yandere), Yoshino (Dandere), Tohka Yatogami (Tsundere), Origami Tobiichi (Kuudere), Kotori Itsuka (Dere-dere, in this case, Bro-con)
There are twelve episodes in total, but there will be continuation. Proof? Check in net.

Amongst the anime I watched, this one seeps into my soul. Seriously, there is no day coming by without watching sword fighting and classic gun gushing the target, and then comes a kiss. One even summons huge beast and gets attacked by dozens of Infinite Stratos-like girls. In the end, Shido comes, and kiss them all like a boss.

Well, that's enough for this. How about some screenshots of the scene?
