Just finished watching this series (except for the movie because there's no acceptable subs out there). My verdict: You have to turn off a couple of cells on your brain, there's some stuff here and there that if you pay too much attention into it you won't enjoy the series. Let it slide. Animation wise isn't the brightest thing out there, generic. MC isn't as unbearable as other harem MC. It's in general easy to follow. It's actually been a while since I watched a whole season in one sitting (S1 one day, S2 next day), so that's saying a lot. The whole cast is likable, some of them more than the other, but still I won't say there's an actual worst girl (maybe the idol one is a bit annoying with her power, but oh well).
7/10, 8/10 at most, a nice show, but all in all it has its flaws, not that I care.
The clock should've had more screentime, sucks that she only appeared in a few episodes, but I can forgive them only for the clock star festival, I teared a bit
Kurumi is literally the only reason why this ever got popular.

>Animation wise isn't the brightest thing out there, generic Season 1 was really good looking. Season 2 was QUALITY all over the place.
Ayden Cruz
>worst selling volume was hers >Tohka still wins more of the popularity polls The LN sales didn't even get that much of a boost.
Adrian Jenkins
If you mean BD volumes, it'll depends in the order they came out. Obviously the first volume's going to sell more than the second and even much more than the last one.
Nathan Ward
Volume 4 and 6 still sold more than 5. Kurumi is only popular for her design but if you really think she is the face of the series then you are very wrong, most magazines include Tohka in the cover whenever anything DAL related is released.
Aaron Lee
I wonder what would happen if she has as much screentime as Tohka or even Origami. She only appears in like 3 episodes in season 1. In season 2 she only appears in 2 episodes (I mean appears as there was interactions with her). While Tohka is in almost every fucking scene.
Michael Gomez
Tohka stopped being relevant in volume 7 and we are in volume 14 now, yet she still wins more of the popularity polls. It has nothing to do with screentime otherwise Yoshino wouldn't be the fourth most popular girl in the series and Origami would be popular as fuck but that's not the case.
Charles Russell
Well who cares, as I stated in OP I couldn't appoint an actual worst girl. I like them all. But Kurumi has an unique charm to her, I cannot help it.
Isaac Thomas
Maybe you would dislike some of them if you take a closer look at the whole picture.
Leo Edwards
Give me my fucking 3rd season.
Christopher Sullivan
Now read the novel. The story does get more engaging.
Jack Rivera
She gets like 5x more fanart than all other girls.
Shitty magazine polls mean nothing. MC's and main girls almost always win those.
Anthony Lopez
Not to mention the author doesn't give a fuck about character popularity I need Origami in despair animated
Jeremiah Sanders
Only watched first season + some OVA and only because of Kurumi. Average show at best. 5/10
Juan Cox
Can't believe Kotorifags don't remember today is Kotori's birthday.
Benjamin Green
I'd give the second season's ova a 10. I still can't get over Tsunako's Nepgear clone obsession. Besides the fact that Shido is just Fang.
Jackson Stewart
Who?
Chase Parker
Anyone know why she joined that sumbag of Westcott?
Nicholas Ward
You fuckers miss this show don't you? There were three DAL threads yesterday and I know, they were dead but people attempt to have discussions of this so much lately.
Cooper Brown
Where do I subscribe?
Ryan Jones
What?
Carter Barnes
and yet Tohka is still more popular than her among LNfag. Seriously, this argument is just as stupid as "it has a lot of porn so it must be popular" when it's not always the case.
Jack Price
>There were three DAL threads yesterday with the opening post shitting on the series or a character.
Logan Nelson
OP here, I saw a couple of threads the past days and I even posted in one of those, but I didn't pay that much attention since I was still watching the series. I don't see the problem in making yet another thread myself now that I finished watching the TV series.
Sorry, idiots are currently being rejected, no subscription available for you.
Caleb Gray
>You just finished watching this. Welcome, as you may not know, DAL threads have been dead for quite a while already and the only lively threads were with summary user who hasn't shown up since vol.14. Leaving you aside, people claim this show is nothing special and is dead but lately there have been many threads of this popping up recently so I figured people do miss this series despite what they say.
Juan Russell
I don't think is anything special, did I say it was a masterpiece or something like that? I didn't, right? So, I don't see the problem in making a thread about a show you just finished watching. I also don't see the problem in making a thread about a show that for some reason you start missing, as long as people don't start making generals.
Kevin Perez
>giving a 7-8 score to a "nothing special" series Wat
Joseph Jones
The faggot thought the MC was shit. It was enough to know it was bait. You should start reading the novels.
Samuel Mitchell
S2 killed the show.
Christian Green
Yeah, pretty much. That and the fact we ran out of content to discuss.
John Sullivan
Why?
Bentley Bell
>Tohka is still more popular than her among LNfag
Says who? Polls with 500 votes?
Thomas Young
Encores and the dragon Magazine.
Jaxson Bell
Did you watch it? I think it's pretty obvious.
Elijah Hall
>Taking the bait.
Camden Fisher
He probably watched the BD version.
Eli Diaz
Don't forget short stories, last time the author did a poll to decide which girl gets a new short story Tohka won 2 and Kurumi 1.
Chase Cruz
Even watching the BD version should be obvious, the art is vastly inferior to season 1 and the amount of still shots increased and are still there.
Blake Torres
I've seen animes with worse quality selling good. Look at Konosuba last season for example.
Jason Campbell
>Konosuba I don't think it looked worse than DAL II unless you watched the BD version. The TV version was terrible, I mean the very first episode caused most fansubbing groups and anime onlyfags to drop the series.
They should just fucking stop with the filler shit. It's not worth it. If they make a third season, they better seize the 12 episodes very well and not waste it in original shit.
Cooper Gomez
It's Infinite Stratos with worse girls but a better MC
Chase Adams
>IS user.
Henry Price
>worse girls >implying any harem can have a cast of more one-dimensional girls like IS girls
Justin Miller
Vol.15 is due to september. But I guess those threads will also be dead since summary user is no longer with us.
