I think I'm finally starting to come around to the series, I'm also liking the idea of ShidoxTohka, guess will see what happens with that pairing as the series goes on. This weeks episode looks like an action packed one, I'm really liking the animation too as of late

Date a Live 04 - Go Team Rabbits!
Tohka's pretty entertaining when she's just living. I get the feeling that house is going to be filled with Spirits before the series is over. Yoshino, in her first appearance, is a bit more subdued than I'm used to for an Iori Nomizu role, but she is cute. The giant rabbit was not wholly unexpected, and looks like it'll make for some nice action next episode. I was wondering why Origami hadn't caught on that Tohka is Tohka, but then I remembered she only knew her as "Princess"; the name Tohka was assigned later. The show's got some really nice visuals and once again, I'm loving the OP theme. The character designs for the Spirits are also really eye-catching. Fancy, but not overly so. |

Episode 4 proved Origami is a world class stalker. And she's apparently been doing that for quite a while. She has a pretty damn good memory, too.
The harem antics at the beginning of the episode were amusing. I was hoping Kotori would revert back to her little sister persona at home, but no dice. She was cute when she tried to resist taking a bath first though. That's a side of her I'd like to see more often. It's also proof she hasn't been completely faking her little sister persona. The new spirit created an interesting conflict with Tohka. I was wondering how Shidou was going to be able to basically cheat on Tohka (and the spirits that will come after her) in all impunity. They're going to have to work out a solution.

Meh, my biggest gripe with episode 5 was that the raws don't have a preview for
Spoiler for Future Character:
But seriously, yeah, they did cut quite a few things. But it can't be helped if they want to avoid ending the season on a cliffhangar.

But, wouldn't the logical formula is 3 eps per novel. That seems ok with me. But, like one of the above posters said, they are cutting some IMPORTANT parts.

They made an original episode for the anime, so that is not a good excuse, they choose to give Yoshino this...terrible treatment in favor of their own original episode which is not something the novel fans (like me) would appreciate. If they think that fans would prefer to see an original episode instead of a proper adaptation of the novel then i can only say that they are totally wrong

From my experience watching anime, the second novels its always the one who suffers after the first story. Quote:
Novels/manga fans aren't an solid group for example Railgun anime hat lots of original episodes and were well accepted despite the complains. |
