Alien vixens make a splash in the interplanetary dating pool in this sci-fi rom-com from the director of Jormungand and the studio behind Cat Planet Cuties!In a world devastated by mysterious spatial quakes, Shido isn't what you d expect in a hero. He's an average Joe who gets bossed around by his adorable little sister and mocked by the popular girls at his school. You'd definitely pick him last for dodge ball, but when it comes to saving the planet from imminent destruction, Shido's got one thing going for him: intergalactic hotties can't keep their hands off him! When the secret to stopping the spatial quakes turns out to be romancing the extraterrestrial Spirits responsible for all the chaos, Shido the loveable loser becomes the hero of all humanity. For every Spirit he makes out with, mankind breathes a little bit easier. Kiss the girls - save the world. That name of the game is driving the space babes crazy, and nobody does it better than Shido!

This is my Holy Grail (with obstacles. EU-customers please read)
I'm from Germany (so please excuse my lousy dictionary-supported english) and I totally LOVE this Series. First I want to mention my only negative Point about it: Reading the description on the backside means being spoilered in my mind. Without having to read it I think the experience of the Story would be much better for novices. I was lucky and watched it without knowing anything, and I think I would not have been that stunned and addicted after the first episode if i had known the things that are mentioned in the description.So here‘s my Message for other european Fans and prospective customers: As you probably already noticed, the Date a Live Anime is not available in europe. (Even Special manga/Anime Shops won't Import it for you; I tried it out two times. ) AND NOW I WARN YOU: Buying the US-American Version here on Amazon is obviously the easiest Way. But its not done with ordering this Volume: For some reason Date a Live is One of the Small Amount of films and Series that is protected with a REGION CODE. That means neither the DVDs nor the Blue-rays will be played by a European Standart DVD/Blu Ray Player. To watch it you will Need A PC or A Laptop. For the DVDs its sufficient to have the VLC- Media Player, but to watch the Blue-Rays you will Need a Blue-ray-Drive AND a Blue-ray Player Software, that plays Blue-Rays from All Regions (multi-Region Player). So you should be REALLY sure how much Money you want to spend for watching Date a Live on your own Blue-Ray. For me As a Fan, it was OK to pay about 150$ simply to have the first Season of Date a Live on Blue-Ray and watch it legally on my PC. (And we all know there are cheaper and less-legal ways to watch it on the Internet.)Regarding this Product, fullfilled my expectations completely. Much better to see the series in HD instead of that pixelated Youtube rubbish. The best fact about the Series is, that the Plot is actually moronic, but you won’t notice it because of the great character desing and the addicting storyline. And the best thing about this Product is, that it contains the series and – let's be honest here – what could be better than transparent blue-ray-discs with spirits on it?I hope Funimation is going to synchronise the Movie „DAL: Mayuri Judgement”, too. And I wish more DAL-Merchandise could be imported to europe :-/My Mates told Me: „Watch Anime Series. Its a lot of fun.“ So I watched HOTD, and after that I watched Date a live. Date a Live, the second Series I watched in my life and probably the last one. Cause what could be a better Anime for me than Date a Live? Sorry mates, I think I found my Holy Grail.

Kiss the Waifus. Save the World
- Synopsis: Our main character is your average anime kid: just plain and ordinary. From mysterious spatial quakes, to mysterious spirits in the forms of cute girls; his life is no longer going to be the same. Reluctantly, he resolves himself that he would rather solves things by peaceful methods. This in turn results in him having the girls fall for him, and then kiss them to seal their destructive powers--that in turn will prevent them from being targeted by the military. The adventures of this lucky (or unlucky) guy will determine if the world will still be intact; depending on his romantic skill and the moods of the girls.===========================================================================================================- Comments: He generally is nice to everyone and is hesitant like many male protagonists are. The girls generally like to tease him. But most end up developing romantic feelings for him for plot reasons. Much of this anime revolves around the emphasis of relationships, which is relatable to real life. Since many of the interactions between people involve some sort of relationship: family, friends, acquaintances, and strangers.- Analysis: Due to how kind-hearted he is, like many other main characters, Shido would rather risk his life for a more peaceful outcome. Many probably would agree. If a situation can be worked out without resorting to violence, why not attempt it? And so, our main character must struggle to win the hearts of his targets in order to save them from being captured or killed. What a nice guy. As he constantly is the target of being teased, the dangers and harem that surrounds him also increases.Many people might have mixed feelings about a plain and/or weak protagonist that needs the protection of the opposite sex. In this case, I think it's more interesting that the protagonist isn't over-powered as one-sided fights tends to be boring. At least if he's weak, he'll have to struggle more towards victory. To be fair, the females around him aren't exactly delicate. They have their own unique powers that can make them dangerous. Part of having a weak protagonist can emphasize how strong other characters are.- Features: English and Japanese audio, as well as English subtitles. Includes 12 Episodes on 2 Blu-rays and 12 on 2 DVDs. Runtime is about 5 hours and is rated TV-14 for some violence and fan-service.- Conclusion: It's a pretty straight-forward anime and has some funny scenes. Doesn't get serious until it nears the end. Otherwise, it's mainly a pretty happy anime where you gotta kiss them all to save them all.===========================================================================================================- Recommendations: IS: Infinite Stratos, Absolute Duo, Re:ZERO -Starting Life in Another World-, Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance, K, Tokyo ESP, Buso Renkin, and Ben-To.

Date Girls and Save the world, awesome.
Date A live is an anime harem series that I couldn't recommend enough, I'll start by saying that, buy this! Now for the actual review. Date A Live stars a young teenage boy who lives in a world that has been threatened by an advanced alien race destroying cities and such with ease. However he soon learns that these destructive moments and these Aliens aren't so clear cut, they are being done by powerful Alien women who don't usually mean to, they just appear and end up wreaking havoc by accident. Our young hero learns he has a power thought, he can seal the Alien women's powers away by causing them to fall in love with him and then kissing them. Now he is tasked by a secret organization to date these aliens and save the world. It sounds ridiculous and it is but Date A Live thrives because of that concept. Our hero dates girls and his support team uses the concept of dating sim choices to help him catch the girls hearts, that's amazing. Animation wise Date A live looks good as well with some impressive visuals and fight scenes. The sound is awesome with the English dub being quite well done. Overall Date A Live is an epic series with only one flaw, the second season has yet to be released in dub! Yet otherwise this show is simply awesome. Watch it and enjoy a love harem story with such a unique concept I couldn't reinforce it enough BUY THIS!
