Hello everyone I have officially moved in (there were a lot of problems) so I am finally back to uploading. Thanks for waiting... I guess I should do one of those RUclipsr things. IF THIS VIDEO GETS 1 LIKE I WILL RELEASE A VIDEO TOMORROW (I have to because I signed a contract with one of my dream sponsors yippee)
@@paperluigi6132 I think the only animegirl to have had an impact on me is Neptune. Purple Heart is my dream girl perfect in every way and I didnt know before seeing her.
Plot is very sci fantasy based. It is isnt a romance like quintuplets. Also the ending was planned from the beginning and avoided series dragging out. Luckily they finished vol 19 but sadly probably wont see last 3 volumes adapted. Season 5 won anime of the season on corner which is like the most competitive voting site. In a season stacked with most of the popular isekais and shonens
Honestly, Date a Live was a show that I just watched to have fun and maybe with the hope that the next girl will be good and interesting, only for all of them to be overshadowed by THE BEST CHARACTER AND GIRL OF THE SHOW EVERY SINGLE TIME! But Although I wasn't that hyped about it, Season 5 was FUCKING PEAK! I have never seen a show go from mid to slightly good to ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE in a SINGLE SEASON! This was trully remarkable and had me actually looking forward for the next episode and at the edge of my seat while watching it.
It was easily anime of spring 2024. Probably aoty contendor. And the views were lower. Just imagine if thr views were around mha, the isekai shows. I dont think re zero can replicate the epic moments that dal v did. Fingers on the trigger probably thr best anime episode in a long time and so iconic
Based on the thumbnail I thought it would be a 17 min rant about Kurumi I would have prefered that since it would not have reminded me of that time travel Origami arc during season 3 lmao Nice video though, happy to see you back !
kurumi is the autor first creation he imagine her in high school so of course she gets more screen time, these is from the after words of volume 16: Come to think of it, Kurumi’s the first character created in Date A Live. Although to be precise, the current Kurumi is slightly different; her prototype was designed when I started writing this novel during my second year of high school. A Gothic Lolita with uneven hair and a clock for her left eye. My state of mind was truly beyond description: “This character has potential, and one day I’ll show her to the world.” Ten years later, I still firmly believe in my passion from then. I remember my original draft: she was an artificial magician who had a special clock implanted in her left eye, capable of utilizing particular abilities at the cost of her own lifespan. At the activation of one, the clock would tick faster, causing her to lose an equal amount of her time. As a result, there would be characters other than her who possessed clocks too, but basically those with them on the back of their palms or chests would be more, so only she would have one in her eyeball. Something like that. And of course, Kurumi wouldn't be the main heroine. She’d become the insane sister character targeting the main heroine’s life, saying, “Hihihihihi, ne, Onee-sama?” A line like that, so spine-chilling.
"This character has potential, and one day I’ll show her to the world.” Well. he was clearly not wrong. I doubt I have ever heard of a character that carried their series so hard into popularity as much as her.
@@phantom-ri2tg is the same for fate stay night and tenchi muyo the autor had faith in his vision and wait to be popular enough to show the work he had been creating even before his debuted in the industry of entertainment
Easily one of my favorite anime of all time, and hearing your hilariously clever commentary and jokes always is something entertaining to listen to, doubly so when you do it on series I enjoy since I first found your channel through your MANY reviews of the Fate series.
@@adventurianist2580 season 5 probably has thr most epic moments in anime. Especially episode 8. Can you imagine if the views were higher. It will cemented as the next aot. People were already saying the dal v just cannot stop being peak. Rightfully won spring 2024 best anime
Great video as always lunar. As someone who read LN long time ago 6+ years at this point and also never plan on finishing this after author fucked up and didnt finish the story right after Mio after aka perfect moment to end the story on , I really love this series both music and weird mix of everything mecha , harem and ever awkward comedy I wish the series got better treatment. Funny that you are clowning on Mana when she never had a chance. Mana was written off season 3 , S3 ep 12 crammed whole voolume of LN into single episode and the wrote off the most important part of the whole volume (Itsuda Disaster) aka interaction between Shido and Mana when he was in his (Shin) state , YES THEY WROTE OFF WHOLE FORESHADOWING FOR SEASON 5 TO CRAM MORE FANSERVICE (also wrote off some Elen + Shidou fanservice sad) . Unfortunate but thats how almost all of anime series are, so many series that were trash while on screen being amazing while reading source material (This is rumor which I heard back in the day so dont take it as truth) There is chance for S6 since it was never about popularity in the west S3 and later would have never happend if not series high popularity in China . Back when series was most popular there Kotori (during S2 times) won popularity contest at BiliBili site winning vs Kurumi and others like Tohsaka Rin, Saber and ever character after whom site was named Misaka Mokoto(Biribiri). I am Mikufag deal with it, sad that Miku on Stage side story will never be adapted -_-
@@jordan9503 the ending will be way better received that most animes out there. If yapfest tensura somehow manages to air, dal vi will impress people insanely. especially the final moments
If high school dxd is the king and date a live is the queen then 100 girlfriends who really really really really really love you is the princess of harem anime that was peak
@@Sauxeaholic dxd i dont think can dominate polls like the later seasons that date a live did. Also dxd doesnt have an ending in sight rn which drags the narrative down as a whole
Best part is dal doesnt feel dry and boring. Tachibana is a master at keeping audiences entertained. Konosuba comedy does this but story lacks the conflict to drive it forward. Re zero can get insanely dry at times and story way too long causing the pacing to worsen during later arcs which can make it dry. Dal keeps the story compact and enjoyable all the way Kadokawa really should have done more to market the show. Season 5 especially was heavily undermarketed and it won anime of thr season on corner and sugoi in a seasn crammed with the most popular shonens and isekais. Re zero got marketed so much at this point it drowns kadokawa's other shows
Actually marketing cost lot of money , where Date a live BD had good sales where Volume 1 & 2 has sold over 1k copies with zero marketing cost which turn anime into profits
@@mahendrap1960 pretty much. Konosuba had insane marketinf to where it was the most watched show in japan. They spent massive on times square ads. Barelt even hit 3k
Through all it's flaws Date A Live will remain one of my favourite series of all time. A great video that sums up (mostly) how I feel about the series. 10/10 show please season 6.
@@miteigi8334 tsunako is a famed character designer. Any old show nowadays is disliked by newer fans but dal definitely deserved aots for spring 2024. Basically wiped the floor with the competition
For some reason , whenever Miku says darling my heart gets pierced with 10 arrows. I love Miku more then Kurumi , Miku awakened me for some odd reason. Kurumi doing the suki suki daisuki kekon shiyou my honey thing also got me it was geniuenly so funny lmao!! Also Miku's songs are so good I listen to them a lot still ( NOT HATSUNE MIKU . MIKU IZAYOII GOD DMMNIT )
Well, what's best of Date A Live is Shido doesn't just run into casual girlfriends. But even if they were his casual acquaintances he would risk his life saving their lives. Unlike other harem protagonists he treats every date very seriously. That says all about him, hence the DAL spirits also will stick their lives out to let him do the right thing.
Kurumi came up right when the goth loli style was all the rage. I had mixed feelings about the - "She killed thousands of people, but she avenged one kitten and is therefore a complicated character." approach they used with her though, it felt cheap and manipulative. Just let her be a villain already, you can save her or whatever later.
YES date a live my favorite harem anime its goated and i wish the manga wasnt canceled Also u dont watch it for plot its for the girls (aka kurumi) cause we all know we watch it for that
Did you say 12:41 you don't like CGI, Lunar? In this case, I would love to recommend you to watch the anime Kengan Ashura. This anime is a fighting anime and it is made entirely with CGI. I recommend it to you for two reasons: 1. Because it really deserves your time and it deserves that you make a video about it, because it is criminally underrated. I personally consider it ' The Greatest Fighting Anime Of All Time '. 2. Because the CGI in Kengan Ashura is simply 10/10, the best CGI I have seen in the world of anime. In my opinion, if this anime couldn't make you like CGI, then no other anime in the world will be able to do this.
@@LunarEquinox nier and overlord had way more noticeable cgi with low frame rates. Realistically they would have not been able to anime the astral dresses through hand. Like ufotable and mappa are like the high end cg studios but those are a much bigger level. They wont do ln series
That nia and mukuro slander is crazy. I did just recently finish date a live and enjoyed for the most part beside the studio change in season 4, wish they did add the spirits backstories completely.
Ngl date alive is actually peak story telling besides the whole sis plot. It story it so deep, forshadowing from ep 1. While season 1-3 are kinda mid, season 4-5 are absolute peak. Everything connects and the feel less of haram anime and more of an stein gate/Boku dame ga Inai macho (erased) type of show that really goes deep with it lore and story.
What would make sense however is for them to make another game. Because, the season 4 spirits never got introduced in a dating sim before. Literally tomorrow they are releasing Ren Dystopia English localization on steam, and it will include spirits from season 3. I don't think this game was ever based on the light novel? So they might just make another one with spirits from season 4.
10:26 people really said that about issac? I mean he barely does anything and it takes till season 3 where he gets up from his chair for a bit then sits back down till season 5. He doesn't remind me of aizen, he just reminds me of that one person in group project who lets everyone do the work, helps just a little bit, then puts the finishing touchs on the project so you can't say he did nothing.
I remember when i was trying to hype Date a live up to my friends when i was 13-. And idk but it was the only harem anime i was invested on lmao 😂😭( i was a huge kurumi simp and ngl i should watch the news season)
"That doesn't mean the animation doesn't go hard at times, but only at times when it wants the audience to go hard." Holy crap that is Shakespeare. I really wish I had written that. 10/10
I dont even know why this was suggested, But I'm giving you A Sub and a Like anyway. I loved this anime, even with the many problems that you mentioned. My love for it multiplied when Kurumi was introduced. But still every moment all the spirits, I liked individually and it had some pretty cool moments, Hardly the worst of its kind, but probably not the best. But it'll always be the best in my heart. Just like Kurumi will be #1 in my heart. I don't see that changing ever.
even tho its been 4 years, I still havent prepared to watch the animated vol 19 I just have to hope King's Proposal isnt something like dal but i can see it becoming one :_) emotional back stabbers
Brother just an honest question why does the word ''muslim'' exist in your username if you are in this video, i don't think you are really supposed to be here if you actually are what your username says, or are you not actually a muslim at all and just thought the name 'muslim' is cool or something I just want to genuinely know about it brother pls don't mind me I don't wanna criticize or judge or anything I just wanna know.

Me personally I don't think the anime is completed. I mean the final scene of S5 does lead pretty well into the beginning of the next arc. So unless there is an official announcement saying the anime is done. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
You gave a review 100x better than me reviewing 1 episode from season 5, and i didn't even review it properly, I was just calling Shido a predator the whole time.
@@Spritely43 it already won anime of the season for spring 2024 against a stacked competition. Shido Zaphkiel probably the best anime moment of the year. I say even better than the scene where Subaru carrying lifeless Rem in the snow
I'm not a fan of harem anime, but I do like slice of life so I have equally bad taste. I watched this one because a friend of mine recommended it to me (they also said I should watch Fairy Tale and High School DxD so I'm not sure what that says about them). Anyway I thought this one was ok, I think my favorite part out of the whole thing was in season three or four. It establishes that the main character, while exceptional isn't special. It kind of establishes that the organization is all over the world and that Shido is not only not the only spirit sealer in the world but isn't the only one in Japan either. However he is still special in that he is probably one of the most successful sealers to date. I really like that kind of stuff in stories, it gives the feeling that the world is still happening with or without the main character being there and the universe doesn't exist just for this one person.
Fun Fact: in 2022, Kurumi Tokisaki was crowned best girl of the year. Here are the other winners. 2020: Kaguya Shinomiya (Kaguya-sama: Love is War) 2021: Miku Nakano (Quintessential Quintuplets) 2023: Anna Yamada (The Dangers of My Heart)
maybe the earlier seasons but the later seasons are like 9 to 10/10. It won best anime of spring 2024 which was far more competitive than fall 2022. I don't think even bleach tybw and berserk golden age arc can pull off that win

@@clarksmith8830 Season 5 I can understand, but season 4 is a 7/10 at best. They really botched Mukuro's arc so hard, making it the only time watching DAL that I ever feel bored watching. It's a 5 episode slog. They also completely skipped out on covering Shido's past of abandonment issues/paranoia that when the climax of the arc happens and he mentions it for the first (ever) time, it just feels so disingenuous. They screwed it up so hard just so they could rush to covering Kurumi Refrain. And while Kurumi Refrain was fantastic, I can't forgive or overlook almost half a season's worth of slop.
@@clarksmith8830Bro Date a Live 4 only became relevant in the final few weeks solely because of the Kurumi Tokisaki arc. It spent most of the season toiling away at the bottom of the polls because of how awful and boring the space girl section was >:(
@@JustInCaseD you weren't there back then. Like if you compare dal iv to spy x family and kaguya season 3, dal iv largely won by storytelling. Well spy x didn't really have a story and dropped off especially in fall. Kaguya was limping until the confession. The kaguya movie flopped

Literally tomorrow they are releasing Ren Dystopia English localization on steam, and it will include spirits from season 3. I don't think this game was ever based on the light novel? So they might just make another one with spirits from season 4.
Aint no way lunar posted a vid
10:26 people really said that about issac? I mean he barely does anything and it takes till season 3 where he gets up from his chair for a bit then sits back down till season 5. He doesn't remind me of aizen, he just reminds me of that one person in group project who lets everyone do the work, helps just a little bit, then puts the finishing touchs on the project so you can't say he did nothing.
no way i just started it realized it was a 11 years ago was surprised go on youtube and find this
I remember when i was trying to hype Date a live up to my friends when i was 13-. And idk but it was the only harem anime i was invested on lmao 😂😭( i was a huge kurumi simp and ngl i should watch the news season)
Why did you come back so quickly, Lunar?
It's just been 3 months since the last video.
There's a reason that I liked the Kurumi OVA and Date A Bullet more than the rest of the show
Kurumi is objectively best girl 😍
Wake up babe, lunar posted
Good to know it makes just as little sense after the first episode so I don't need to get invested lol. This is why I like anime with actual endings
that long silence followed by the panty question. I choked on my toast
"That doesn't mean the animation doesn't go hard at times, but only at times when it wants the audience to go hard." Holy crap that is Shakespeare. I really wish I had written that. 10/10
I dont even know why this was suggested, But I'm giving you A Sub and a Like anyway. I loved this anime, even with the many problems that you mentioned. My love for it multiplied when Kurumi was introduced. But still every moment all the spirits, I liked individually and it had some pretty cool moments, Hardly the worst of its kind, but probably not the best. But it'll always be the best in my heart. Just like Kurumi will be #1 in my heart. I don't see that changing ever.
I love Mio and date a live date a live actually has a good story and plot line the novel is so good
even tho its been 4 years, I still havent prepared to watch the animated vol 19 I just have to hope King's Proposal isnt something like dal but i can see it becoming one :_) emotional back stabbers
@@iiLunq hope king's proposal even gets animated kadokawa is ridiculously stingy when it comes to animating shows. Especially ones with actio
About time, been waiting forever for the next video👍
i agree, even with the flaws (which i don't care a single bit about because i didn't see any) I'd still rate it a 10/10
You gotta admit, someone went fire on the ost
welcome back boss
I can't explain how long i waited for your video 😊
Brother just an honest question why does the word ''muslim'' exist in your username if you are in this video, i don't think you are really supposed to be here if you actually are what your username says, or are you not actually a muslim at all and just thought the name 'muslim' is cool or something I just want to genuinely know about it brother pls don't mind me I don't wanna criticize or judge or anything I just wanna know.
Damn, I remember making comments on your older videos telling you to watch date a live Glad that it finally happened
(but Jesus it’s been long, I’m now in fucking uni)
All of the air left my lungs when you compared the mc to Jesus, I found that so funny I forgot to breathe
Bro finally came back from the void💀(btw I've been seeing your videos for 3 years)
Glad am not the only one, Kurumi did something to me i tell you and i love date a live alot for me the best harem.
Lunar you're returneded back has welcomed you
that last little date montage was kinda getting me hyped
Ha. I have watched that time I got reincarnated as a slime 132 times
1:48 instant sub
Hey can u do a review of higurashi when they cry ? Its a great psychological thriller anime!
Twin tails stalkings and red hair sounds like kuuroko from crawling with love
There is something about you're channel that made it for me soo funny love you're videos.
Aaaaahhh Date a Love
My favorite comfort show to lose my actual fucking sanity.
That was a great way to introduce to my first harem anime
"technically" monogatari is a harem
@@kitetenjo4246 that is for dabate since only senjougahara, hanekawa and sengoku are in love with araragi the rest are just very close friends and litle sister like
@@antoniojsanchez7892 he got and got kissed by 4 other girls. Kanbaru has stripped him and herself. Nadeko also likes him. And the biggest cheating anyone can do is the brushing someone's teeth 🪥 which he did
@@antoniojsanchez7892Hachikuji too.
Allright, Shido is just jesus. Like he doesn't like to die allthough he does, He is the fucking son of god
Me personally I don't think the anime is completed. I mean the final scene of S5 does lead pretty well into the beginning of the next arc. So unless there is an official announcement saying the anime is done. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
tail red twin tails on time stamp 1:09 only homies will understand
Yooooo
He's backkkk
About time you post
I remember watching the first season back when it aired and I am just now learning that there were 3 more seasons.
You gave a review 100x better than me reviewing 1 episode from season 5, and i didn't even review it properly, I was just calling Shido a predator the whole time.
After 7 seconds of this summary all I can say is
WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL
I truly Love Date a Live its my favorite anime 😅
I would never say "probably". I'm here because i know that it is for me.
Ur right
@@Spritely43 it already won anime of the season for spring 2024 against a stacked competition. Shido Zaphkiel probably the best anime moment of the year. I say even better than the scene where Subaru carrying lifeless Rem in the snow
16:43 Hatsune Freaku Jumpscare
13:23 Liked and subscribed just for the Suki na Ko ga Megane wo Wasureta clip
" like a 'happy marriage', it can't exist"
Based
Subbed.
READ THE LIGHT NOVELLL ITS SO MUCH BETTER AND HAS FLUFF PLOT AND ACTION THE ANIME WAS FAST PACED AND THE PROBLEMS ACTUALLY MAKE SENSE
The GOAT anime reviewer is back 🎉
Can't wait for the next video after 3 months 🎉🎉🎉
He’s back!!
That flashbang made me think a bug flew on my screen.
If only Lunar would finally review the absolute king of idol anime that obviously being the Love Loves baby
I'm not a fan of harem anime, but I do like slice of life so I have equally bad taste. I watched this one because a friend of mine recommended it to me (they also said I should watch Fairy Tale and High School DxD so I'm not sure what that says about them). Anyway I thought this one was ok, I think my favorite part out of the whole thing was in season three or four. It establishes that the main character, while exceptional isn't special. It kind of establishes that the organization is all over the world and that Shido is not only not the only spirit sealer in the world but isn't the only one in Japan either. However he is still special in that he is probably one of the most successful sealers to date. I really like that kind of stuff in stories, it gives the feeling that the world is still happening with or without the main character being there and the universe doesn't exist just for this one person.
i love your editing style
Fun Fact: in 2022, Kurumi Tokisaki was crowned best girl of the year. Here are the other winners.
2020: Kaguya Shinomiya
(Kaguya-sama: Love is War)
2021: Miku Nakano
(Quintessential Quintuplets)
2023: Anna Yamada
(The Dangers of My Heart)
Guys look it's a new Lunar video
We missed you
15:47 was waiting for @414Anime to get a shoutout, because he's the reason most of us got briefed about Date a live, although we haven't watched it.
Yoshino best girl 💚💙💚💙💚💙💚
Man... Whoever cast Asami Sanada for that role probably didn't know the kind of madness they would unleash upon the world.
yeah, there's a strong reason why I watch it sub
Something i like to say is DaLs anime is a 7/10 and the light novel is a 8.7/10
maybe the earlier seasons but the later seasons are like 9 to 10/10. It won best anime of spring 2024 which was far more competitive than fall 2022. I don't think even bleach tybw and berserk golden age arc can pull off that win
@@clarksmith8830 to be fair, reddit really fucking went nuts. Like they all collectively mass voted on it.
I would know, I lurk that community like no other and am one of like 4 actual artists who even draw ts
@@clarksmith8830 Season 5 I can understand, but season 4 is a 7/10 at best. They really botched Mukuro's arc so hard, making it the only time watching DAL that I ever feel bored watching. It's a 5 episode slog.
They also completely skipped out on covering Shido's past of abandonment issues/paranoia that when the climax of the arc happens and he mentions it for the first (ever) time, it just feels so disingenuous. They screwed it up so hard just so they could rush to covering Kurumi Refrain. And while Kurumi Refrain was fantastic, I can't forgive or overlook almost half a season's worth of slop.
@@clarksmith8830Bro Date a Live 4 only became relevant in the final few weeks solely because of the Kurumi Tokisaki arc. It spent most of the season toiling away at the bottom of the polls because of how awful and boring the space girl section was >:(
@@JustInCaseD you weren't there back then. Like if you compare dal iv to spy x family and kaguya season 3, dal iv largely won by storytelling. Well spy x didn't really have a story and dropped off especially in fall. Kaguya was limping until the confession. The kaguya movie flopped
ahh xanax, tissues and harem anime. the stuff dreams are made of.
you had me with the thumbnail and lost me when I realized this is not a 20 minute video gushing about Kurumi.
