I guess to be more exact, I see it more like this (with Tohka and Yoshino - and to a certain extend, Yamai sisters, the other spirits have very unique cases): First meeting with Shidou: non-aggressive human. Neutral zone. Additional meeting with Shidou: Shidou reaches out to them. They accept him and friendship is established. Date+Conquest: Shidou gains more affection from the spirit. Spirit begins to develop romantic feelings towards Shidou. I am not going to force my definitely of "friend" onto anyone. As such I also do not think questioning other people's definition makes good argument. Quote:

Fortunately the LN seem to contain enough comedy to "have something for everyone". |

That being said, I'm done with this argument for now- It's obviously going nowhere, and it really doesn't matter what it's labeled as in the end. I already made my point, and I doubt I'll be convinced otherwise anytime soon. Besides, I'd rather discuss about something else like the actual plot(tm) than discussing about the literary structure of this series. |

This may be off-topic but after watching the anime, I surfed through FB a bit and realized that Kurumi has quite a number of fans. I dare say she could stand toe-to-toe with Tohka, Though I doubt many of them actually read the LN,
However, what surprises me the most is that they know Kurumi is a psycho, . Well, can't blame them, I'm her fan as well LOL

I think my liking towards Kurumi originate from beyond the Yandere caste.
Her introduction was epic and it rivals Origami's boldness, so she scored quite a few points off the bat. As I progress with the story, Kurumi strikes me as a character with more depth than the rest of the cast in DAL. She is on a mission and is willing to sacrifice a lot for it. In a way she lives up to the "berserk" in her name than the Yamai sisters who people refer to as berserkers. She seem to possess high degrees of intelligence to be really calculating as well. She also displayed a moment of cruel kindness: how she chose to "eat" the delinquents torturing the kitten, so maybe her victims aren't necessary clean either. (Sure, she threatened to kill the whole school but everyone came out "alive"). After that scene I wondered why she truly allowed "herself" to be killed by Mana repeatedly: is she really just toying with her, or is it Kurumi's way to show kindness towards Mana? I also really like her design: a time-travelling gunner in a gothic dress. |

I also want preorder, but then, I think I will blow a hole in my pocket if I buy... (Wanted 3 games, 2 on Vita and this one.)
