Date A Live II - ep07

Now with the end of the contest, we will now learn the results. Then as is expected Miku won the contest while Shiori came in second, this leads to Miku gloating over Shiori about her victory. However it seems that Miku forgot the terms of the bet because it wasn't over who won the contest but who can in first overall. That this is where Shiori won with the help of everyone running their booth. Then in the end Miku can't accept anything not going her way, this leads to Shiori trying to use this to show her that she needs to start reaching out to others. Although it has the opposite effect which leads her to taking what she wants by force in using her angle to get her way by using it to brainwash everyone. That her goal in doing this is taking away everything that Shiori values away from her, now with Shiori under her control she shoves it in her face which leads to Miku learning Shiori's secert.

Now that Shido is revealed Miku goes about trying to kill him using the spirits that she captured. However Touka is the only that manage to escape because she had ear piece plugging both ears. What makes things worse is that Kotori is effect as well and has prepare the Ratatoskr to wipe out Shido along with everything else inside the building. Then at this point Mana re-enters the story when she knock Kotori out as she leave to aid Origami in dealing with the DEM. This leads to the conclusion of the aerial battle when Mana effortlessly takes out the DEM's commander Jessica Bailey. This adds another two people that are immune to Miku's powers. Although they don't go to aid Shido.

Then as things are wrapping up above Shido and Touka need to retreat for now. This is problematic since he can't rely on Kotori. Things become much worse when Ellen makes her return while they are still dealing with Miku. This force Touka to make the only decision that she can by sacrificing herself so that Shido can escape from both Ellen and Miku. Although he manage to escape, it doesn't change the fact that for the first time since all this started he is on his own. However ironically his salvation come in the form of an old enemy. What is interesting is that Kurumi is willing to help also it seem like she has been keeping an eye on him since the last time that they met.

What is more interesting then her desire to help Shido is the way she goes about helping him. That instead of going strait after the DEM to rescue Touka as Shido wish to do before resolving the situation with Miku. It seems that Kurumi finds it more ideal to deal with Miku first. Then towards this end they goes to her home, and there it is revealed that Izayoi Miku is assuming the identity of Yoimachi Tsukino. It seems that Kurumi already knew all of this but just didn't want to directly come out and say it. This raise the question of who Miku really is and why did she just take Tsukino's appearance instead of both appearance as well as her name. Now with Shido knowing a bit more about Miku the question is how will the rematch between Shido and Miku go. There is also the question if Mana and Origami will come to his aid. The final there is the issue of what DEM is doing to Touka. Although it going to be interesting to see how Kurumi and Shido will work together.
