Date A Live

A little meet-cute in a decimated city April 10. The first day of school. Shido Itsuka is rudely awoken by his personal alarm clock-his little sister. It’s shaping up to be another typical day…well, as typical as it gets on a planet plagued by massive spatial quakes. Little does Shido know, however, his life is about to take a sudden turn when he encounters the source of this destructive phenomenon-a girl his age, apparently known as a Spirit. Turns out, there are only two ways he can stop her from unleashing hell on the world: Eliminate her by force or placate her…by taking her out on a date and making her fall in love with him!

When it rains, it pours! Things have only gotten stranger for Shido ever since Tohka transferred to his school. These days, his life teeters between heaven and hell, and the forecast today points toward the latter. He’s already been caught in the line of fire between Tohka and Origami, and a sudden downpour leaves him sopping wet. Just his luck. Lately, it seems the only place he can catch a break is in the comfort of his own home. That’s all about to change, however, when a new “training” regimen calls for him to live with Tohka-and while Shido is at his most vulnerable, a second Spirit emerges from the storm…

The clock is ticking! June 5. The day another disaster strikes Shido’s high school. Transferring into his class is a new student, Kurumi, who immediately makes the jaw-dropping confession that she’s…a Spirit. With a twisted sense of justice and homicidal tendencies, she seems to buzz with impish glee whenever she destroys a piece of the world and its human populace. As tensions mount, Shido is instructed to do the one thing that will placate her-ridiculously enough, taking Kurumi out on a date and making her fall head over heels for him!

A spirit in flames, a town on fire… Shido was determined to save Kurumi and Mana. He simply had to. At the critical moment, though, he found himself immobilized, unable to keep his promise. Had Kotori Itsuka not shown up at the last second, everything would have been over... Nevertheless, Shido feels like his world has come crashing down, especially after discovering his little sister is a Spirit, too... Now he’s been called to save her using the only method he knows: taking her on a date and making her fall for him. He needs to act fast-because he only has one day to complete this seemingly impossible mission!

Summer break is just around the corner, and it’s time for Raizen High School’s class trip to Arubi Island. While the other students gear up for a bit of fun at the beach, though, Shido has no time to relax! As soon as his class reaches its destination, he immediately encounters twin Spirits Kaguya and Yuzuru. Now, he’s wrapped up in some “final battle” where the one who seduces him first will be named the victor! But this time, he has no backup from Ratatoskr. Can he make it out alive and save the twins from their cursed fate?!

Battle of the bands! The students of Tengu City’s ten high schools are all hard at work preparing for the annual Tenou festival. So what better time for a Spirit to appear and liven up the festivities?! Shido’s latest adversary is a talented singer by the name of Miku Izayoi. With a voice bewitching enough to place anyone under her spell, this spoiled princess is used to getting her way. Dealing with her sense of entitlement is bad enough, but then Shido’s attempts to win her heart quickly go awry when he makes a worrying discovery—Miku doesn’t like men! If he wants to bring her into the fold, he’s going to need to get…creative.

Things are looking grim. The entire city of Tengu City has been enthralled by a spirit. Worse, Tohka has fallen into the clutches of DEM. When Shido feels trapped by this seemingly hopeless dilemma, the sinister Kurumi Tokisaki appears before him with the worst possible timing…and offers to help rescue Tohka?!

When a new Spirit, Natsumi, arrives, Shido sets out to meet her and right off the bat, things start going wrong! This witchy Spirit has the power to transform herself into someone else. Shido isn’t sure what he’s done to get on her bad side, but whatever Natsumi has against him, she’s using her abilities to ruin his life. After taking his friends hostage, she threatens to disappear them forever! Shido has to guess who Natsumi is impersonating before she does something terrible to them all. There are just too many choices and the clock is ticking! How will Natsumi’s twisted game end?

In a nail-biting finish, Shido managed to correctly guess who Natsumi was impersonating. His reward for beating her at her own game? A house full of screaming children! In an act of pure frustration, Natsumi turned Shido’s friends into a bunch of kids before making a break for it. Of course, there’s no need to worry because she’s still hanging around, doing her best to ruin his reputation from a distance... Shido’s only chance to return the gang to normal and reclaim any semblance of peace is to give Natsumi...a makeover?!

Fate is a tricky thing... Five years ago, a Spirit killed Origami Tobiichi’s parents. Holding a grudge that has only grown since then, Origami turns to DEM in hopes of becoming powerful enough to enact her revenge by killing every last Spirit. Shido can see that this is guaranteed to lead her down a path of death and destruction, so he’s ready to do whatever it takes to stop Origami’s plans to attack Tohka and the others. But what if there was a chance to turn back the clock and potentially undo everything…?

Five years ago, Origami’s parents were killed by a spirit the same day Kotori became a spirit. And that’s when Tobiichi Origami changed forever. To make sure the worst doesn’t come to pass, Shido has gone back in time and there’s only one thing to do: change the world.

How the tables have turned! Shido has been steadily sealing away Spirits in his bid to let them all enjoy peaceful lives. Little does he know that there’s such a thing as too much Spirit power! While an overabundance of it grants him superhuman strength, it also puts him in an incredible amount of danger! As luck would have it, turning him back to normal is a fairly simple process. Unfortunately, Shido has gone a little berserk and refuses to cooperate…unless, of course, the girls can woo him by the stroke of midnight!

After being overwhelmed by Spirit power, Shido wasn’t quite himself. The girls stepped up to get him under control, and now he’ll face the consequences of his embarrassing actions. However, he barely has time to think about it since Nia, a new Spirit, suddenly arrives on the scene! Her peculiar personality and particular tastes might make seducing her Shido’s greatest challenge yet. After all, this hardcore otaku only falls in love with 2D men! Shido and the other Spirits need to put their heads together to figure out a way to reach Nia’s heart—and fast, because DEM Industries is preparing to strike!
