    As someone who's involved in the DAL community it feels like the general feelings of the anime is it's alright but not amazing but we'll watch it because it's DAL(even if it skips multiple volumes worth of content). The main reason that DAL has such a big following is more to do with how good the books and games are and how content from the books and games are all tied together.
    A reason people might not hear much about it is mainly how closed off the community is with absurdly giant private community groups and translation groups.

    Hot take: I think that the people who only watch the show for Kurumi aren't really fans of the series. They just like the character, which is honestly a shame since the plot of the series from here on out will get better and darker. But in the end, to each of their own.

      Plus, you can't really be "the anime man" but then call so much stuff as trash so quickly w/o a care in the world. A smarter person would still respect others opinions. We all know something like Boku no Pico or Abunai Sisters is widely hated, but if someone likes it, so be it.

After the 5 years between season 2 and season 3, it did feel like you sort of had to force yourself to watch it for a while, and then it took 3 more years for season 4. So 8 years for 2 seasons can be a bit discouraging unless you're a hardcore fan.

    Common problems are giving opinions to an anime if you never really watched it for yourself but you only listen and hear negative rumors about it.

      It doesn't really have anything to do with a toxic fanbase. DAL fanbase is small and chill. If you want toxic, look at Naruto, MHA, Gundam, where there is an insane amount of hating on other members in the fandom. Joey just tried to throw shade at a show that he isn't even watching and is actually doing well and backlashed. If he tried that with a bigger fandom, he would get crucified harder.

    I think he gave out an unprocessed opinion because he might've only heard the bad things about s3 which was the animation, and to top it off, the last kiss Shido had with Tohka on that season. That means he probably never watched the 3rd season cause of the negative infos his close ones gave to him.

    And boy did it change my life. Date A Live is simply my favorite series of all time (both anime and normie shit too). I simply love the story and was pretty fond of Tohka.

  • @miteigi8334
    @miteigi8334 Рік тому +3

    Season 3 is what killed Date a Live to the mainstream plus the blind simping of a lot of Kurumi fans. I know this because the reason I watched the series back when S3 was airing is because of Kurumi too. And after watching Season 4(after rewatching the 3 seasons), I finally gave in and read the LN and now I have the full picture(The LN is freaking amazing btw). Season 1 is good and have the best art style. It's biggest problem is having some fillers, trying to censor stuff(like Shidou not being covered in blood after Yoshino's arc), and cutting important parts(both for the plot and for the characterizations) on Kotori's arc, and it being old enough for a lot of anime watchers(or even some LN readers) to forget that the biggest plot twist of Date A Live was actually, already set up as early as very first episode itself.
    Season 2 I think the best is the best one adapted. But is the season that alot forgot the most(because at least S3 is remembered as the worst one, a shame because Miku's arc is really amazing). Most probably forgot what Kurumi did there too despite being the most popular one in the 1st season.
    And now we have the worst season. While I think they did fine on Origamil(although barely passable), the rest are just were full of misses. Aside from the terrible artstyle and animation, there's cutting off Natsumi's inner thoughts that shows her social anxiety and severe trauma, making her nothing but "Yoshino 2.0." And the biggest one is rushing Volume 12 in just one episode. It's cuts off Nia and Artemesia's first appearance, and also the first namedrop of Mio in the whole series from Shidou himself.
    And then 6 months later, KnY Episode 19 happened. Anime went mainstream, and everything changed. It didn't help when 2020 happened and more series like AoT, SxF, and CSM took over the mainstream until now. People don't even know that Date A Bullet already aired or even it's existence(don't watch it btw, because it's terrible)
    Now this 2022, 3 years after S3 and after 3-4 delays, of course it would be surprising to people that this thing is still kicking. And now it's already forgotten as a whole and LN readers are just there waiting for translations of either DAB final volume or more updates for the Encore side stories(which is still ongoing btw). It also didn't help that S4 is suffering from S3's blunder and how old the previous seasons are, and to the mid tier adaptation.

      You guys need to read more stories if you honestly believe shido is the best kind of protagonist of any genre. Date a live held so much promise only to stumble and fall on its face it has all the issues of other mid tier stories. Poor world building, most of the cast doesn't do anything, the villains are jokes, there's no stakes or tension. "World shattering " events can be undone at the snap of a finger. Shidos whole role as a protagonist is to lie, cheat and simp for girls to keep them happy. He literally gets handed power when the plot says. The girls somehow fall in love with him after one date the reason usually being "he was the first person to be nice to me" like come on the writers think I'm stupid or something. The rules of how the world and powers work have still not been explained. Tohka was one of my favorite female characters then the story took a dump on her character and pulled some fairy tail level writing twice near the end that pissed me off. Date a live has serious problems that only get compounded upon as the story goes on. I wanted to like it. Gave it a chance up to season 3 and the lns. It's not the super high quality people say it is and it's definitely not for me anymore. A story that tries to set up a clear romance between two characters where one doesn't even care about the other outside of it being his job.

      Or if he just said “I didn’t know Date a Live was still popular” something along those lines, that would fix the issue

    TheAnimeMan did not take them seriously. The same here because those are types of weebs you can only find in the abyss where anime is basically their whole lives. People living miserably will act miserably and easily get bothered by what people say. I can't relate, though. FYI: I watch anime but I am so chill that I don't get bothered by what people say about the anime I watch or love.

    He better not repeat this now. It's 2024 and it's Season 5, so he better know not to throw shade at the show again.

      It's happened like 50 times by now, so he's used to it. He could tweet "water is good" and get cancelled for it on Twitter.
