She’s coming back in march
>>291867522Why is this the only light novel advertisement anime they bothered giving new seasons years after after season 2? I hate the main(?) lady with her jealousy and nonunderstanding.
>>291867538It deserves it, DAL is great. Obviously others deserve it as well though. We don’t hate feminism enough for killing the battle harem genre.
>>291867570What's the battle harem genre?I would say Nyaruko or Kore wa Zombie for instance are more akin slice of life than shounenslop batturu.
>>291867570The battle harem genre simply went to another world
I dropped DAL like S2 or 3 when the animation quality went to toilet. The first season was fun.
>>291867522she never left my dreams.
>>291867890And became boring medieval shit
>>291868397Magic academies are on the rise now
>>291868916We alredy had the familiar of zero.
>>291868916>Rosario + Vampire but boring and asexualYikes
>>291868916Examples?
>>291867522And that's a good thing
>>291871487YesDating never stops
>>291867522I'm coming right now
>>2918680094 and 5 had better quality but battle animation was 3D for some reason.
>>291867538Because china liked it and funded it for some reason.
>>291867596I see Kore wa Zombie more as a comedy.
>>291868009I much prefer the first seasons’ art style but it’s worth it to keep going for the plot and characters
>>291872136I wonder if Red Rose (Silver Palace) is based on Kurumihttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yno3tYEVP9Q
>>291867538China bankrolled seasons 4-5, even despite the absolute QUALITYFESTS of Season 2 and 3, particularly the 3rd one.
>>291874797Bigger is possible.
>>291868009As another anon said, the majority of Seasons 4-5 look "okay" when at rest but the action becomes an incredibly jarring 3DCG that looks fucking awful.That being said, the developments in Season 4 and 5 are pretty okay close to the end. Season 3 was a huge missed opportunity because Origami's arc is pretty good but got no fucking budget.
>>291867538Few other harems can boast that they have a Kurumi. As much as the secondaryfags are annoying and smug as shit about it despite not interacting with the primary source, Kurumi is as iconic as a battle harem heroine as you can get. She essentially carried this franchise on the backs of her countless clones. Few others from other franchises can even say the same.
>>291875222Is it weird that I think this bimbo is the hottest DAL girl?
>>291875639Not at all. A small statue but huge breasts is something I often see in real life but almost never in fiction. It pretty rare and adds a sense of realism. Her simple way of thinking and massive powers also made her very dangerous.
All that effort to make Season 1 look that good and rerelease like 3 times, and for what?
>>291876374I always thought she was hot for some reason...
>>291879088She is. She's just the one suffering under the author the most because he thinks>lol lesbiansIs the funniest joke to ever exist
>>291868916Anon, that was 20 years ago...
>>291877682Who's this?
>>291883595Origami's boss from before she becomes a spirit.
>>291874797I may post Kurumi's bra being unhooked later, in 2 hours at most or something.
>>291883743Thanks
We need more magical gunslingers.
>>291867538Clock figurines and Saudi prince money bankrolls this IP, unironically.
>>291887665Get that shitter on the right away from those two best girls
Here it is, Kurumi unhooking her bra.
>>291887835Gorgeous
>>291887976She wears white underwear in that scene but I'd say that she's showing off, what she wears looks like it's meant to be sexy, partially because of the garter straps or garter belt, or both, I'm not wise when it comes to those things and I'm not sure if she's wearing both but yeah, she's wearing sexy underwear I guess.
Speaking of Kurumi's underwear...white underwear or black underwear? What is better? That will depend on who you ask, she wears both colors in official media, mostly those two colors.

>Thread survived Nice.
>>291875164Ok but what about season 3? Thqt's the one that came with a buge delay and revived the anime.
>>291873297>>291867538its a franchise zombie where they release that date a live pledge gacha to fund the anime series. the global server's already dead cause the devs decided to be greedy pieces of shits.now its being re re revived.
>>291888777I hope they fix the gacha, it’s pretty fun but many issues like glitches, need to farm to progress the story because of the level locks, some characters are incomplete, etc
>>291888777>franchise zombieYet it got 3 bonus seasons and a film years after the usual ln advertisements end.
>>291867522Opened this thread for her tongue.
>>291888625
>>291867522Is date a live worth getting into at this point? I do like battle haremslop and they just dont make any anymore :(
>>291889687It absolutely is, it’s the best of the genre. Speaking as someone who got into it last yearNew anime is gay, watching older stuff is the way to go Also, battle harem is caviar not slop
>>291889704>battle harem is caviar not slopI've consumed most of the notable stuff in the genre by now, date a live is just a show i didn't notice because I think i thought it was something related to one those idolmaster type games.My favorite one is probably heavens lost property, thats a really good one
>>291889746>heavens lost propertyHaven’t seen that one. Perhaps I should check it out sometime
>>291889774I really like the low stakes and fun characters, its a really easy going show, its consistently good too and got two seasons and a movie. Its a typical girl falls through your ceiling kinda setup but the main girl essentially has god tier magic like a genie kinda style magic, bad shit always happens
>>291867522My wife :)
>>291889827I liked TLR so I’ll probably like this too, still prefer DAL though. DAL is more serious and has interesting mechanics
>>291889958Yeah if you like tlr you'd like it, its definitely about as relaxed as that, there are some fights here and there but it a lot of comedy mostly, that and watermelons,(both kinds)The snow episode is probably the best one
>>291867522Why is this character such a gacha whore? Almost all the gachas I play have her show up in a collab.
>>291867522I'm coming on her back in march
I just realized the new content is a movie not a series. WeirdWill they be able to cram all the remaining content in there?
>>291867522>cumming backhow? the dum sword girl already won . unless there's another spinoff to milk the clock.
>>291888777>global server's already dead cause the devs decided to be greedy pieces of shits.thats every single gacha. not just /int/ editions.
>>291889508I want to kiss this clock
>>291892553That would seal her powers away
>>291892641but i'm willing to counterbalance and give her other powers.
>>291867522Hickory dickery dockI want to cock the clock
>>291879088She is. 2nd or 3rd best girl alongside Origami.First being Kurumi, I know that part is an extremely unoriginal opinion but it’s just true
>>291893614I need at least 2 or 3 more good moments with Miku beyond her Volume 8 moment and her end of Volume 7 moment.I cannot think of an endearing thing she has done after wards.Yuzuru is my number 1 and Kurumi is 2nd
>>291867522I'm cumming on her back currently
>>291893915I like how she acts all dere towards Shido despite originally hating men
She deserves to suffer and die.
>>291894907Yeah but she could have done it more than act up like a raging lesbian every other breath.
>>291895317Yeah that’s kind of weird and goes against her arc, especially in that episode where she baits for customers and it’s said she still hates men somehow? Like no, she was clearly over thatI mostly like season 2 MikuHer body is still hot as fuck tho
>>291867522>"If Shido wants me, then I'll gladly give my everything to him. To become his lover, kiss him, have sex with him, marry him, give birth to as many babies as he wants, grow old together with him. But, even if Shido chooses someone other than me, I won't mind. If Shido thinks to marry Tobiichi-san, I'll bless him with all my heart. Of course, it also applies for other person as well. Even if Shido chooses Tohka-chan, Kotori-chan, Yoshino-chan or perhaps someone that I don't know. Of course, I don't mind if he doesn't choose to be with anyone, or even if he chooses everyone I'll support his wish. I'll do anything for Shido's happiness. If Shido wishes it, I'll grant any of his wish. I don't mind becoming his childhood friend, his lover, his wife, his younger sister, his older sister, his mother, his daughter, his superior, his subordinate, his enemy, his nemesis or even someone unrelated to him. As long as Shido is happy, I'm satisfied....Oh sorry, it seems I got too worked up by myself. But it is true that I don't mind whoever Shido chooses."
>>291895800It's this guy and the fucking Cadaver Celebration guy with these damn bots.
>>291889132the gacha literally funded thatthe devs confirmed
>>291895980Is it really profitable enough to do that?
>>291896009i can't find the revenue chart but it was around a millionish for the first few months of release on global and the cn server was fairly popular. the dropoff happened after genshin came out and I remember for global alot of people upright quit cause aniplex shut down the madoka game at the time so people didn't want to put money into another game that might go up and die.
>>291895980That came out after s3.
>>291896161Then how could it have funded anything
>>291897048an anime series only costs like 4million for a 13 episode coup.If its making over a million a month on global you can imagine how much its making off the cn server and later JP server
>>291896707global yes but cn came out before season 3.
Clock selfcest
>>291898623>Looking at viewer while doing a footjob pose>"selfcest"
>>291898960
How many clocks could you handle at once?
>>291899215That is actually selfcest but it's also fucking gay therefore bad. Also looks like ai slop?The first picture you posted is betterOr this one
>>291899305Good question. Maybe like 5 or 6. I don't think it's up to me to decide though.
>>291899305Two or Three sounds the most "realistic"
>>291899330It's not ai slop, it probably would've been deleted off gelbooru by now if that's the case
>page 10.
>>291902605Page 9.
>>291902605Cute
>>291902605Is this AIslop?I can't tell anymore. I'm sorry I let you down.
>>29189930510
>>291879088I'm glad she got fixed
>>291906745>FixedDid she really though
>>291904140I love Clock's bare back
>>291867522DAL too strong
>>291889508
>>291899215>>291899330White Queen is an entire different person
>>291910110Saved
It's 6000 yen should I do it wtf
>>291898307>an anime series only costs like 4million for a 13 episode coupReally? Huh
>>291910135It’s Inverse Kurumi. Even if it’s a clone. If main Kurumi were to invert she would become White Queen too
>>291907704She did, it’s basically only ever walked back on for rule of funny
>>291911459It's Saya, she fused with a discarded Kurumi clone to form White Queen, we never got a proper inversed Kurumi
>>291911445ya its pretty affordable since jap animators are slave labourers
>>291911013What's this?
>>291911544There’s no reason to believe an actual inverse Kurumi would be any different in terms of anything but some bits of personality though
Will the movie come out in the west
The strongest shoulder in all anime. Holding DaL for a decade.
>>291918388My wives
>>291918388Where is Yoshino?
>>291920946
>>291867522honestly im surprised this anime still has new seasons i watched this in 2013 when it was releasing and i didnt even know it was still releasing new seasons, most of the anime i watched only had one season and thats it, fuck, i need to rewatch it since i dont remember shit
>>291923557It's a movie that's coming out in march actually
Moar like Pureumi amirite?
>>291924965makes sense, did the light novel end already?
>>291921116Nice!
>>291868298cutie
>>291925252Pure for me
Best spirits.
>>291930052Who's the first wife?
>>291930052Clock is so gorgeous
>>291930052Not giving DAL a harem end was a fucking crime
>>291867522Pure sex voice, both original and dub
>>291892641So, anything but the kiss on the lips is fair game?
>>291932316I'm okay with just hugs, like she was a pillow
>>291932316Not that I would mind sealing her…
Its incredible how clock carries this entire series Naturally as a clockfag i assist with buying her never ending merch
>>291934235I love how popular she is but I think the other girls deserve some attention too
>>291934304you're right, most of them are also good. I really like origami as well but clock is just a different level above them
>>291911667looks like a tapestry
>>291934304I like Yoshino and Thoka too
Kurumi, Miku and Origami. Those are the dals I love the most
>>291922339Oh my.
>>291935461Clock hips...
Actual date a bullet adaptation when
>>291938398good idea.
>>291938668I s this a rare clock? Who's this?
Luv <3
>>291941331White Queen from Date A Bullet.It's Inverse Kurumi. Kinda.
>>291944223I wish I were in the middle
>>291947195Man sister is so hot
>>291867522Sad
>>291932104Why not? Tohka is for Shido, Kurumi is for the fandom.
>>291947540Not gonna lie, I don't really get the hots for Kotori or Mana, but the three of them fighting together in the last season was very heartwarming. I kinda like Nia big retarded sis vibe.
>>291949809Ah lol, I post the Yamai duo, oh well, not that is bad, anyway, here is some Nia, she may be retarded but I like her energy.
Reminder that Reine end is true end. Any other ending is the delusions of a gluttonous retard.
>>291949809Brittney Karbowski.
>>291951780Alexis Tipton
>>291950998That's a hag
>>291911445Ozamu Tezuka sold the first anime episodes ever at a loss in hopes of recouping costs with merch sales, everything for the sake of watching his manga animated no matter what it took to get it done, it succeeded in both massive TV ratings and merch sales worldwide. Took Disney by surprise really fucking bad too since the Japanese managed the impossible, weekly """cheap""" TV animation that looks good. Long-running animated TV series could work as a model.The problem? It set the trend that Japanese animation is dirt cheap and practically almost no studio since then can afford to opt out of the model since TV chains know they got the upper hand, pattern repeats of selling at a loss and hoping on merch sales and maybe BD sales.This is also why streaming became a lifeline for so many studios or why several are letting themselves get bought or commisioned for original anime since the streaming services usually pay at minimum enough to recoup production costs or they put the money for it all in the first place so the studio doesn't end in the red from said anime unless they fuck up with the budget or production timeline and have to take loans (happens sometimes).Ozamu Tezuka created anime by taking a gamble for his dream and betting his entire fortune on it all and got what he wanted... But accidentally turned the whole industry into a dumping and labor explotation scheme that the Japanese animation industry, and most of Asia in-retrospective, cannot escape and will likely NEVER escape ever. There are outliers, but the cycle can't be broken. Not even streaming deals that give back bonus money per viewer milestones are enough sometimes, and that's something not even TV chains do.
>>291952332You forgot to mention that Tezuka's studio went broke after a couple flops and he went back to draw manga till the day of his death.This is why almost every modern anime studio has production commitees, so if the plan goes wrong and it all underperforms, all sponsors take a percentage of the hit and not the full fall that could bankrupt them individually otherwise.That's also why Studios pop and die often, since if any money is made, it all gets partitioned between the parties that funded the thing, which leads to them getting barely enough to fund another series or staying in the red, which leads to them taking loans and the death spiral starts unless they get bailed out by a big corpo, local or overseas. Used to be Netflix and Amazon, now the Saudis go shopping every time they see Japanese studios bleeding. Same with JP game studios.
>>291949742Which Kurumi?
>>291949742Shido was supposed to be (us)
>>291952853All of them.Kurumi for each anon!
>>291911013Long hair draping over the tits is so hot to me. Maybe may favorite hair style a girl can wear. Especially when she’s nude like that. Something about how the hair hiding the breasts, but it’s her own hair and not clothes so it only further accents her femininity. It’s the perfect line between tasteful lewd. I hope some anon understands me.
clock love
>>291956417I understand you and I agree.
>>291873156>>291867522These two are so much better than the purple main girl
>>291958120Delicious clock butt
>this is the transfer student, she will sit next to you.
>>291960783>*Squish*
>>291867522I thought they finished DAL
>>291962837Dating never stops!
>>291960783Why is she so fat?
She deserved a better anime to be featured in
>>291867522i like ecchi harem fantasy shit, would i like date a live? and most importantly, does it have nips?
I don't give a shit that she's a retard. I love her.Kurumi's great and I see why she's synonymous with the series, but I prefer Tohka.
>>291965609DAL is great though.>>291966113It’s the best of the genre.It’s not that ecchi though and doesn’t show nipples but doesn’t show nipple-less boobs either, it just hides the nipples.
>>291966856She's pretty cute
>>291954715We need more Origami on Brunhild armor, imagine a straight symphogeah.
>>291968421How is Symphogear not straight
>>291968421Second best girl.
>>291966856She's an adorable retard I want to kiss her
>>291867522Based
For what?
Need more Clocks
Kurumi is surprisingly well endowed in canon
>>291962837Not on their watch.
>>291867522I'm still floored at how she alone carries the entire thing consistently.
Want her to clock me
>>291973013DAL would still be great without her. But she elevates it to legendary status.
cock the clock
>>291966856inverted Tohka rules, she's just as good as clock if not better.
dal love
>>291973649
>>291967769>It’s not that ecchi though and doesn’t show nipples
tohkatard killed this series
>>291966113>>291976780It has clock and that's reason enough to watch
>>291978832this.
Hopefully Clocks spinoff gets an anime adaptation, I want to see her drinking a strong zero
bump
https://youtu.be/TM4hTbIK1WwKurumi coded theme for a Kurumi coded Pokémon
>>291867522Steins;Gate is better than this haremshit
>>291985461For a show with time travel as its theme, i wonder how kurumi would fit in the SG universe, she'd fit right in the Re:Zero universe as an antagonist to subaru
>>291985461Steins gate has a tranny character btw
>>291985954So? That doesn't inhenrently ruin it and I say it as someone who isn't a fan of Steins;Gate, the fact that you use the t-slur says something about you actually...your opinion deserves to be dismissed.
>>291986637tranny
She's a creepy clock
>>291987333No, and even if I was one, it's irrelevant and you are still being transphobic.
Trannies and people who obsessively hate on them both need to seek Jesus
>>291987567didn’t read tranny
>>291988354But you still responded and you know that I said I'm not trans and that you are being transphobic, don't play dumb.
>>291985461But I like both...
>>291980191I would give her my whole stock
>>291987457>>291989865She's so hot
>>291985461S;G is an awful anime. Get some taste
>>291980191more like tits
Happy Halloween
>>291867522Is this show worth it for her? I watched a couple episodes ages ago and wasn't impressed.
>>291997596Probably not, but she's my waifu. It's also interesting to see 5 seasons done by 4 different studios and the next movie done by a completely different studio
>>291997596Yes
>>291997596She’s but one of the many reasons why it’s worth it
