30 Day Anime Challenge Day 16: What Is The Last Anime You Watched?
Funny thing is I am actually watching anime as I type this one…So I am rephrasing the question to what anime am I watching at the moment? If you didn’t read “30 Day Anime Challenge Day 12” Then you may not have know about this new anime I am binge watching. lol
Date A Live
“”Before the world ends, kill me or kiss me.”
Thirty years before the events of Date A Live, an enormous explosion devastates east Asia and kills 150 million people. This is the first known “Spacequake”, an inexplicable natural disaster that has since become commonplace. Fast forward to the future. High school second year Shidou Itsuka lives alone with his cute little sister while their parents are away.
What do these things have to do with each other? While rushing to save his sister from a sudden Spacequake, Shidou is caught in the blast and, in the midst of the chaos, finds a mysterious girl. It turns out that this girl is actually a Spirit, a powerful being from another world whose arrival devastates the surrounding area. Thankfully, Shidou is rescued by an anti-Spirit strike team… led by his little sister?!
This vicious task force is locked and loaded, ready to exterminate Spirits with extreme prejudice. But this violent method is not for Shidou. He discovers the one way to neutralize these Spirits peacefully: make them fall in love. Now, it’s up to Shidou to save the world by dating those who threaten to destroy it!”
Thank you to MyAnimeList.net for this wonderful synopsis.
I am only on episode 9 or 10. I have only met 3 of the Spirits. The first spirit was pretty awesome to watch. She is a total badass. The second spirit is a little girl who is adorable and seems lost. The third… well I love her outfits! Especially in the opening credits, but man does she sure creep me out. Not someone I would want to meet in a dark forest by myself. lol.
Meet the Spirits:
The first spirits name is Tohka and she has purple hair and is dressed in all purple. She is the first one to really make contact and seems to have no recognition of anything that is human. In fact she states that she doesn’t know what a lot of things are and she also doesn’t seem to be very familiar with the English/Japanese language. But she can speak it fluently.
The second spirits name is Yoshino and she has blue hair and is wearing what looks to be a giant frog or maybe a rabbits jacket. Not really sure what they were going for there. But its cute. Shiduo finds her dancing around a shrine in the rain, before he knows that she is a spirit.
The third spirit is Kurumi. She walks into his classroom and introduces herself to the entire class as a spirit and also then walks straight up to him and asks him to show her around. Kurumi is depicted with her hair covering one eye, as the eye that is covered looks like a clock. She also dresses in a goth princess/ steampunk way. (and I just love her style!)
There may be a fourth spirit or something to that effect.. but I haven’t seen it yet. So I don’t know. I do know that I am loving this show and cant wait to see the next one.
