The song Date A Live by sweet ARMS presents a prevailing atmosphere of uncertainty, hopelessness, and despair, all of which are related to a world that has already broken down. The lyrics depict a setting where people are resigned and don't have any notion of what to do next. The first verse portrays a city where everyone looks down, and only despair is reflected in the eyes. The second verse raises an idea of pain that silently endures, and the whole world is slowly repeating the same mistakes. The chorus offers a ray of hope in the form of an invitation to change reality with the power of love and the opportunity to start everything anew.
The third verse depicts a world where even love could not save people from the destruction, and then there is only one option left - to choose to rebuild everything again or leave it as it is. The bridge tries to reassure the listener that showcasing vulnerability is fine, and everyone is battling with their own demons. It is better to believe and pursue your own struggle than remain stuck in the world you do not want to be in. The song's final lines offer a message of hope and encouragement to go forward, embrace change, and believe in oneself.

Everyone is downcast in this city (Dead or Alive)
where a dry wind blows through
My eyes sought for the light (Dead or Alive)
But all they saw was despair
My scream can’t reach anyone
So stop me with your very hands that I’m looking for
In this world where just about everything is broken
I never understood why
But I’m still scared of the kindness that I touched
There’s a gaping hole in my heart
Are you the one who will fill it?
Make your choice, Date A Live
(Wow Date A Live, Wow Date A Live)
A dull pain aches in me (Dead or Alive)
It comes back again and again
At the end of this war (Dead or Alive)
Is despair all that’s left?
No one can fix how I feel
So stop me with your very hands that I touched
In this world rejected by every single person
I can’t find a way to stay here
without hurting anything
I don’t know where to put my fading emotions
But will you accept them?
Please tell me, Date A Live
I waver in hesitation (between compromise and destruction)
I can’t control myself (wandering alone)
Our own senses of justice cross paths
My anticipation grows (but the truth is)
I want to believe in you, if something is going to change
In this world where just about everything is lost
I felt like I could see something
at the tip of your outstretched hand for the first time
My vague feelings
may be awkward and making slow progress
But they’re becoming more certain
My heart is in motion
Are you the one who will change it?
Make your choice, Date A Live

Tohka's first appearance will always be the most iconic for me in the whole series. Dropping in as the first spirit and accompanied by that beautiful music "Seirei" from the ost.

Sonotori da ! I think it’s the best spirit intro in the whole series. Everything is perfect : their face expression, their feelings, the music, ... everything. I fall in love with this anime everytime i rewatch it and the first season i’ll always remember while i felt when i discovered this series

My little brother and I discovered this while browsing on crunchyroll and just Date a Live. It was one of those moments where I just said "Ah, what the hell let's try watching it and see what happens." That led to watching the rest of the series and finding a visual novel for it. I REGRET NOTHING!
