    Interesting premise with mixed follow up.

    The original premise was moderately unique but it quickly turned into a more generic Harem anime.

    That said during the three current seasons there are times where the show again rises to a higher level making it worth muscling through the lack luster filler.

    My experience

    In 2017 I first time watching this anime first it was normel heram anime like another but their is lot of comedy fun facts etc by each season grows it's story development was insane undoubtedly this anime is one of my favourite and one of my top 5 anime this anime have some unique features that touch our heart so everyone watch this anime and support them. I don't know why many people don't talk about it it's a underated anime with great story and comedy romance emotionally attached seen action supernatural and sci-fi elements etc. And it's story was insanely good expecially it's 5th season I wish their is more seasons any way my rathing is 10/10.

    Great Anime and order to watch it.

    This is a quite fun anime with good characters and an MC that you will love/hate sometimes.

    The first and a half seasons are more relaxed, focusing on the characters, comedy and fanservice, the second half of season 2 and seasons 3 and 4 focuses more on action and story development and have parts of mistery and season 5 (for me the best one) finishes a big part of all the story we know (except if you know the light novel's or you focuse on the last scene).

    Sadly seasons 4 and 5 have CGI because of low budget (at least season 5) but are still enjoyable. I hope we get a season 6, movie, OVA or spin off because this show deserves it.

    The order to watch this anime is:

    1. Season 1

    2. OVA 1:Date to Date (in this page appears as ep.13 of season 1)

    3. Season 2

    4. OVA 2: Kurumi Star Festival (in this page appears as ep. 11 of season 2).

    5. Movie: Mayuri Judjement (You can watch it if you want but its not cannon).

    6. Season 3

    7. Season 4

    8. Spinn off: Date a Bullet: Dead or bullet

    9. Spinn off: Date a Bullet: Nightmare or Queen

    10. Season 5.

    Why can't this get more love

    Where do I start.... So on August 27th 2022, I was on my bed because I was sick and bored. I came across this anime, and something made me wanna watch it, so I did. When I watched it the first time, god knows how addicted I was to it. I was so captivated by everything, the character design, the comedic moments, the action, the conversations, everything captured my heart. I ended up finishing Date a Live Season 4 after only one day, because it was so captivating and I just couldn't get enough of it. When I learnt Kurumi saved Shido 200+ times before, it really did feel like I recovered from my sickness. This was my favourite anime back then, and I just wish it got more love, it's so damn underrated it's unacceptable.
