Well, where do I even begin with the masterpiece that is Date A Live Movie: Mayuri Judgment? The story is an absolute tour de force, weaving together complex themes of love, fate, and the nature of reality itself in a way that will leave you breathless. The two to three main characters are simply unforgettable, with their nuanced personalities and intricate relationships driving the narrative forward with the force of a freight train.
And let's talk about the music. Oh, the music! It's a symphony of sound that will take you on an emotional journey you'll never forget. From the hauntingly beautiful melodies to the heart-pumping beats, it's a true feast for the ears.
As for my enjoyment experience... well, let'…

Plays like a feature-length episode and while I enjoyed the first 3/4, the last 15 minutes drag. This is definitely a character piece, although Kurumi gets very little screen time she is always a joy to watch, Miku managed to make me laugh which I didn't expect, the twins are excellent with my personal favourite, Yuzuru, getting lots of screen time. As for Tohka, well I can't fault her, she's brilliant.
The story was a step down from the previous series but the animation is still just as consistent as ever.
Overall enjoyable but the ending does drag a little, nevertheless RECOMMENDED.

First review in this site and HOO BOY what a piece I chose to review first.
-Spoilers will be included in this review, I'll indicate where later-
Date A Live wasn't that much of an impressive show in my book. I did somewhat enjoy it before when I wanted to catch up anime shows my friends were watching at the time, but building this new critical aspect in my mind, I saw the show as pretty mediocre. It's got meh characters and a somewhat creative setting (?) Nothing offensive. Just another harem show.
This "movie" (I put quotes because this feature only clocks in around 40 mins.) was an absolute drop of quality. Date A Live Movie: Mayuri Judgment introduces a new character and does NOT flesh her out that much. If we're getting a new character, they must be the focus of the film because T…

Garbage.
Actually just this one word sums it up really well which is why i initally only wanted to give out a one word review but MAL guidelines are like: nah tell us why you liked or disliked this anime. So here is a short +- list for this movie and a little more.
So, dont get me wrong.
Let me preface this by saying: I actually like Date A Live as an anime.
It is one of these few harem anime that focuses a little more on romance instead of comedy. Besides that even if it might be a little shallow and generic the anime was fairly well executed and the characters were lovely. So therefore I had some great hope in Mayuri Judgment, but this movie was a goddamn disappointment. Why it was disappointing? Well...:
-it felt more like an OVA instead of a movie ( e.g.: only 2 minute long dates,…

Overall, this is definitely the worst part of the Date A Live series. There’s a clear distinction between this piece of work and the works of the first two seasons. There was a clear lack of plot in this movie, and the titular character talks for about 10 minutes in the 1:15 movie. You’d have thought you’d have seen/heard more from the titular character right? Clearly Date A Live: Mayuri Judgement doesn’t think so.
Plot: 2
I’m not sure you can say this has a plot. The plot can likely be summarised in a single sentence, which doesn’t really make it a plot. 2/3 of the movie is just basically a repeat of the rest of the series with the addition of a single character who.. oh wait.. doesn’t speak for pretty much the entire movie. So there’s not many positives to do with the plot

Okay, first of all: There WILL be spoilers, as the main aspect I focus on this review is the story, if you haven´t seen the movie yet, don´t read this review.
I really enjoyed Date A Live I+II, because of the unique concept, and as the series progressed, it just got better in my opinion. There was one thing I noticed, but it didn´t really annoy me, the following, always repeating steps: New spirit lands, new spirit is uncontrolable, shido saves her anyway, the spirit becomes part of his harem.
I hoped for something unique in the film, but the first 45 minutes are basically wasted, shido goes on 6 dates, that are completely irrelevant for the story, although they effect Mayuri after all, I just didn´t see the sense in putting 6 dates in the film, you could do that in the anime, or an OVA or…

This movie has really, really great ending of an Date a Live series.
I enjoyed it, I love it. No fun, this was something I never thought I would ever see. This was Amazing.
So, I just said its amazing and good ,but why it is good? Back to the review, shall we?
So, if you managed to saw every episode and OVA of DaL series (in chronological order) and then saw this you will be satisfied with whole series. I can assure you. I would be glad if there will be third season, in another words, it needs third season.
Story: 9/10
I had like zero expectation for this, because I just saw HAREM in genders and I was like: Oh great -_-. But, opposite is true. From first season, episode 3 I got addicted on this. Even if its not almost original but that doesnt matter. But the feels from some episodes/OVAs…

To summarise, a fairly satisfying ending to the whole series, although I do feel it could have been explained and expanded a bit more.
Story: 7
I feel like the story from the past two seasons seemed to work slightly better, the film was mainly comprised of Shido going on dates with everyone, which I suppose nicely rounds off his relationships with everyone, I suppose merely to keep all fans happy, although I do feel that it was rather forced, but it was enjoyable nonetheless. I did enjoy the ending, but I feel that poor character development let it down a little. I was slightly annoyed about the lack of answers towards the end, like "Who created the spirits?" and "Where do they really come from?", but hey I guess some things are just left to be wondered...

Date A Live: Mayuri Judgement is the sequel to Date A Live II and was released in August 22nd of 2015 and ran for 1 hour 12 minutes (72 minutes) and was once again produced by the same studio that did Date A Live II and the Encore OVA, Production IMS. So what did LA think of this anime film?. Before LA answers this let's first look at the premise, well Shidou our main protagonist sees a huge sphere in the sky in which only HE can see, later the Ratatosk group analyze this huge sphere and tells Shidou that he must go on a date with his right now current harem to remove this huge threat from the sky, that's right, the bulk of this movie is Shidou going out on consecutive dates with each of his haremette members Tohka, Yoshino, Miku, Kotori, Yuzuru and Kaguya. The thing is, although the movie…

No spoilers, just opinions :D
I really enjoyed watching the original Date A live when it first aired. The second season was not as good but this film, Mayuri Judgment, just disappointing to me. Being that the original Date A Live aired a couple years back I was probably less aggressive towards the cliches of this series, but watching this film now has made me wonder why I ever enjoyed Date A Live; has it always been like this?
The story takes place after the events of Date A Live II so all the previous characters will appear in this film. The new character(s) is developed poorly for a 2 hour movie. The art is the same tier as the previous series so no complaints there. It has a bit of "service" for the fans of each girl in the series. Finally, it pulls a completely fresh plot that force…

From the very first episode in Season 1, Date A Live was definitely unique in its set-up. Using dates to save spirits from their misery is certainly a concept that you do not see often in the romance genre (except maybe The World God Only Knows? Just maybe?) and this was initially executed in a very interesting way. Where Date A Live goes wrong, however, is that, instead of coming up with something new, the writers choose to recycle the same generic formula once, twice, and now thrice.
“Formula? What the heck are you talking about? What formula is this?” you may ask. Nothing wrong with asking a totally legitimate question. And to answer: well, let us boil down exactly what happened in the past two seasons. Whenever a problem comes up in the form of a new character, tensions among various…

The Trashy Harem Movie I Have Been Waiting For Has Finally Arrived.
The movie started off strong with an opening song and Yoshino losing her mind with glow sticks. At that point (about 1m30s into the movie) I realized that this show was made for the fans and I was right. The fan service level was easily 9000+. The movie kicks off with the announcement of 6 dates with the main girls. Let the date begin. Shit is about to hit the fan and Shidou is tasked to save the world in the only way he knows; make all the women happy! There was some cute ideas in the dating part and silly jokes. Did you like Shidou cross-dress for Miku? You get more of it. There are cameos for all the minor characters, some more major than others, and they make you smile because they live up to their personality.
After…

Oh boy! A Date a Live movie. I can't wait to see more Origami in it!
"about a movie later"
Well, someone is getting fired over this.
There are maybe TWO characters we like in the Date a Live series and only ONE we actually care about. The first one we like is the Time-Girl, and the second one of course is ORIGAMI, the white haired human (shut up VN player) girl that's socially awkward, loads of fun and pretty cute in her own way. After them there is CHAOS. A whole bunch of filler characters we could easily do without and who wouldn't be missed if they disappeared. So... Whoever had the idea of a movie about the main character going on a date with every girl BESIDES Origami deserves to be fired, simple as that.
It doesn't really go anywhere after that either. There's a small subplot about…

Date A Live: Mayuri Judgment is to say the least... average.
A common problem I see when it comes to these kind of movies is that the movie original character isn't developed very well and that's exactly the problem with our movie's character: Mayuri.
Story: 5/10
I don't really want to go into too much detail so I can refrain from posting spoilers but it's basically this:
A huge orb of energy happens to appear in the sky that only Shidou can see. Now as per the usual Date A Live tradition he must go on dates with spirits! All this happens while he is trying to figure out the mystery behind the mysterious girl that frequently appears before him.
Mayuri's character was honestly handled very badly and the ending was predictable and felt forced. If you want us to fe…

*May Contain Slight Spoilers*
Date A Live came back for another installation into the Anime Series this time with a movie. Date A Live Mayuri Judgement was overall a pretty good, relaxing movie to watch considering that I am tired as fuck today. All of the dates were very enjoyable to watch and all the girls were extremely fucking cute on their dates!
The story is what you would expect of Date A Live, dating. They spend the whole pretty much first hour going through each of the characters dates. Considering they only have about an hour and twenty minutes to throw this all together it does feel extremely rushed with each date lasting about 10-15 minutes max.
Also the ending were they had their fight it felt really rushed and seeing Mayuri dissappear had little impact towards me in the fe…

Just finish the movie today. Kindly to leave a review here. Sorry, but i think i will spoil something.
Story (6/10)
So I think the story a bad develop. Well i just say that i have guess the storyline. The ending is too simple, but it's still make me want to cry. The date is interesting like usual thought they don't show ecchi so much.
Art (7/10)
Like usual the art is so beatiful. But, I notice that Shido's face is kinda weird. The proportion is kinda weird, definetily. The studio also have a new design clothes of the spirit that are refreshing my eyes.
Sound (9/10)

When I first heard a movie was being produced for Date a Live, I wasn't excited in the slightest. But they out did themselves this time.
Story:
If we watched Date a Live before, the story isn't amazing by any means but it is very enjoyable. Same goes for the movie, if you enjoyed the anime seasons, you will enjoy the movie just as much, if not more.
Art:
It still doesn't look as polished as season 1's blu-ray edition, but it comes pretty damn close. You can tell they put a lot of effort in improving the art style from the horrendous looking season 2. However, I'm docking some points because during the last part of the movie the art suddenly shifted back into season 2 standards, and the action scene isn't very well animated or structured.
Sound:
The movie reuses a few tracks from both se…

In my opinion, Date A Live is the BEST ANIME for me! I just finished watch this on 1/12/2015! Soundtrack 10/10,Story 10/10,Character 10/10 !
I love Date A Live so much! Hoping for more season!
I love how the narrator narrates in the beginning of every episode! As for the soundtrack by sweet arms I Freakin Love Your Song in all Date A Live series,never gets bored! The character's design were outstanding maybe because I was so obsessed with it but for me it's perfect,the expression,design,colour and everything!
In this movie, of course everybody knows a new spirit is introduced as shown in the trailer ....I am not gonna say her name to prevent spoiler....but I gotta say she has the best spirit form outfit design I ever seen. The colour and her angel WOW! Blown mind XD.
Thank you for maki…

REVIEW
*May contain spoilers*
Story: 7.5/10
I was really hyped for this movie, being a date a live fan, but this movie gave me the impression: " thats it?" It wasnt really much, just shido going on dates again and the appearance of mayuri. She literally talked for only about 5 minutes before she basicallly dissapears.Before she appeared at the ending you can only get glimpses of her. IMO i was dissapointed in this movie. Action was really good though.
Sound: 9/10
Very good soundtrack, loved how they used season 1 opening song again, was fantastic during the action scenes.
Characters: 6/10
Seriously, if a movie is about a person, make sure they have enough screen time
P.S kurumi doesnt have much screen time in this movie :(
Overall: 8/10
Was overall a great movie as a harem fan, but sto…

“The heart of one wavers when you least expect it.”
I was really hyped for this movie, after the epic saga that was Date a Live and Date a Live II. Like all great franchises, the high point of their reign over people’s minds and desires is usually with a feature-length movie that would feature our main hero(s) (Shido Itsuka in this case) on the big screen. So how well does Date a Live the Movie: Mayuri’s Judgement fare amongst other movies in the market? Does it stand out as an underappreciated gem considered over that Pixar movie? Does it bomb and leaves the viewer crying for a refund? Let’s find out!
Sound (7/10)
Some familiar music cues (including my favourite – named Cycling) from the anime can be heard here, but most of the soundtrack is fitting enough in its use. Three songs, “Dat…
