Chinese.

I used to have that stereotypical take on anime (weird girls n' stuff) up until I watched Hellsing Ultimate.

Chinese or Japanese, I'm half Japanese.

(because these are the only two Asian races)

Yeah, Date A Live was really fun. Kurumi and Kotori were also my two favorite
Spoiler
...Spirits.

They were pretty solid characters in their own respect, as compared to the other characters like Tohka and Yoshino who had terribly forced or barely existing character development, respectively. But the character design is beautiful (I believe Kurumi's design alone attracted a LOT of people towards the audience, she's one of the top results on Google for "Which anime is..."). Tohka, Kotori and Kurumi all had amazing character designs, and while I wasn't a fan of Yoshino's, it was pretty unique and could be pretty appealing to some.

I wouldn't call Date A Live the highest quality series, nor would I call it one of the best even in its own genre, but it has a lot of potential considering where it was left off, and I sure as hell am looking forward to Season 2 and seeing where they take the series.

I simply used the two races most common, sorry if I plucked the thorn of the porcupine again.

Yes I agree kurumi and kotori are very adequate characters
Spoiler
Althought kotori was only interesting closely to the end with Efreet the fire spirit and all and I must say Kurumi eating people wasnt a surprise seeing how she always licked her god damn lips like she was starved sorry for all those perverts shes only into eating you.

Talon 03-09-2014 08:44 AM

Spoiler
Kotori was pretty sub-par in terms of substance up until the final episodes where she's revealed to be Efreet and the last ****ing episode where she almost dies multiple times. That scene where she's shooting up that drug behind the vending machine to stay alive gave me feels. If there's one scene I remember from Date A Live, it's that scene and her battle with Kurumi.

Spoiler
I love Kurumi's evil sadistic attitude but I love Kotori's game face when shes in her spirit form, kotori is a very unique character half human and spirit and since our main character there has the power to sea spirits powers I'm pretty sure he'll be half spirit in season 2 by just seeing all the foreshadowing.

Log Horizon Season 2 is all but confirmed.

Did more research as I was getting to the current episode, the creator mentioned that plans for a season 2 were ongoing in early December.

Side note; episode 23 contains an easter egg from the creators other series, Maoyu. Leefa from SAO is there too.

Hamatora is a pretty good ongoing anime if you ask me.

Here's some info about it (Crunchyroll):

Spoiler
"Minimum"— Otherwise known as "small miracles", is a special power that only manifests within a few, select humans. Those who possess this ability are called "Minimum Holders." 2014: Yokohama. The detective duo of Nice and Murasaki, otherwise known as "Hamatora," wait again today for work with their friends at a table at Cafe Nowhere that they use as their agency. Suddenly, a job they receive seems to have a weird connection with the serial killer that their police friend, Art is searching for. All of the victims of this case happened to be Minimum Holders. Soon, Nice and Murasaki, who are both Minimum Holders themselves, find themselves getting more and more involved in the case...

Finished Corpse Party: Tortured Souls.. Was a LOT more graphic than i had been expecting. It took me a little bit to understand it, but the ending was somewhat touching.
Spoiler
Only three people were left and were going to escape the elementary school, and they find out one of the characters didn't have the charm they used that got thim stuck in the school. The protagonist gives his to her, claiming he has his dead sister's charm to use. As they disappear, the camera shows a random person's highschool ID on the ground, which is where most students kept their charms that got them trapped. Only two of the three students made it back, each holding one of the protagonist's severed arms. He lied about having his sister's charm to make sure his friend would make it back instead of him.
