Date A Live - ep10


In the final episode of this season it ultimately raised more questions than it answered. First you have Isaac Westcott goal of causing an inversion in Touka just to give Ellen a worthy sparing partner, the issue was there more to it than just that. Then they just leave because Ellen isn't in top shape because of her fight with Origami. Then there is the fact that Isaac called Shido by a different name, it raise the question on what does he know about Shido that he himself doesn't know. Although it brings us the greatest question of all why is Touka so different from the other spirits because she didn't even have a name to began with. There is also this reverse Touka doesn't know of Shido or anything her other self has done, so in a similar way she lack a sense of self that Touka has through her interaction with Shido.

Even-though it has raised all these question the main focus of this finale is bring Touka back to her senses and unfortunately for Shido this Touka isn't interested in Talking things out. Also through the fight with Touka Shido show his worth to Miku by protecting her and showing he is a man of his word unlike all the others that abandoned her. That through this fight it show that Shido is not just able to use Touka's power but Yoshino's power as well. This hints at why Kotori's superiors were afraid of what Shido would become if he was able to use the sealed spirits powers. Anyways as the fight continue the Touka that Shido knows starts rising to the surface which start to suppress this Dark Touka, which cause her to become more agitated. This drives her to be more determined to kill Shido, that in the end he is able to bring Touka back by repeating history in the way that he sealed her power. Now that this Dark Touka is awake doesn't mean she won't be back in the future.


Now that Shido has Touka back the only thing left unfinished is Miku's sealing. Although this doesn't happen until later once some order has been restored to the town and she is going to give an encore performance. That she kiss Shido knowing full well what will happen, she does this because Miku believes in Shido that even if her fans turn on her again Shido will still be there for her. The other reason is because she wanted to, this is clear because of how she has start calling Shido darling. It looks like things are going to become more complicated for Shido with Miku joining his harem. One last thing that isn't resolved is the issue with Kurumi, it seems that she is searching for a sealed spirit. Then there is the question of the truth behind Kurumi is she a inverted Spirit like Touka was are is she like Kotori and Miku a human that became a spirit. This series so nowhere near finished the question is of the Date A Live movie that coming out, the issue is will it continue the story or will it be a rehash of everything that has happen in the past two seasons.
