Date A Bullet: Dead or Bullet

Date a live is back and it's great to see our beloved Kurumi again especially in her own story. Okay, I first thought that it was supposed to be a movie that is an hour-long but I watched the first episode and it was 24 minutes, standard time for animes. It was great how the premise of the story is shown in the middle part and didn't narrate it in the first part. If you really love date a live, even if you don't know anything about this, you will just keep watching it, idk for Kurumi? lol. Also, the subtlety was shown, not revealingwho was really the Kurumi that died. The art is so cute for the other characters but also for Kurumi but I kinda miss the old art. I think it would be more good if the director at least clipped a flashback about Shido to hype up the fans watching this.

Sooo, a light novel reader here which means that i am up to date with date a bullet and i gotta say that i had to reread the first volume. You might be asking "Why?" or "Whats your point?". Well, I had to reread it because i was not sure if i read the same thing. Cause the plot of the anime really differs from what i read and it was a huge disappointment to me. I wanted more emotions, more action, more character development and MORE SENSE!!!! Is it only me that thinks a bunch of stuff doesnt add up?! OKay, the main character ISKurumi, but doesnt make the WHOLE anime a great one. The setting is great but it is ruined. The original story was full of emotions, drama, yet this... is just a battle royale hosted for..? Who knows? Thats how the studio wanted to happen so here you go? Not a big plothole here! Nope! Anyway, I am not saying its horrible, but I gotta admit... even if the studio doesnt want to follow the LN, they should be able to make something... interesting and something that makes sense.

First review yaayy. It is basically an introduction to the next movie. A confusing start, but you start to understand during the episode, which greatly improves the experience watching. I liked how Kurumi's skills were presented, for example "aleph", which in the anime implied it was a teleportation, but in reality it is a speed increase, the movie made a connection with the OVA of Date a Live II, which was very interesting . The animation was interesting, nothing to bother me, the characters are cool and a little striking, especially the White Queen, that ending made me very excited for the next movie, I hope they keep thequality or even improve it.
