Kurumi is literally the only reason why this ever got popular.

>>145135772
>Animation wise isn't the brightest thing out there, generic
Season 1 was really good looking. Season 2 was QUALITY all over the place.

>>145135831
>worst selling volume was hers
>Tohka still wins more of the popularity polls
The LN sales didn't even get that much of a boost.

>>145135888
If you mean BD volumes, it'll depends in the order they came out. Obviously the first volume's going to sell more than the second and even much more than the last one.

>>145135983
Volume 4 and 6 still sold more than 5. Kurumi is only popular for her design but if you really think she is the face of the series then you are very wrong, most magazines include Tohka in the cover whenever anything DAL related is released.

>>145136054
I wonder what would happen if she has as much screentime as Tohka or even Origami.
She only appears in like 3 episodes in season 1. In season 2 she only appears in 2 episodes (I mean appears as there was interactions with her).
While Tohka is in almost every fucking scene.

>>145136203
Tohka stopped being relevant in volume 7 and we are in volume 14 now, yet she still wins more of the popularity polls. It has nothing to do with screentime otherwise Yoshino wouldn't be the fourth most popular girl in the series and Origami would be popular as fuck but that's not the case.

>>145136355
Well who cares, as I stated in OP I couldn't appoint an actual worst girl.
I like them all. But Kurumi has an unique charm to her, I cannot help it.

>>145136610
Maybe you would dislike some of them if you take a closer look at the whole picture.

Give me my fucking 3rd season.

>>145135772
Now read the novel. The story does get more engaging.

>>145136054

She gets like 5x more fanart than all other girls.

Shitty magazine polls mean nothing. MC's and main girls almost always win those.

>>145136355
Not to mention the author doesn't give a fuck about character popularity
>>145139445
I need Origami in despair animated

>>145135772
Only watched first season + some OVA and only because of Kurumi. Average show at best. 5/10

Can't believe Kotorifags don't remember today is Kotori's birthday.

>>145135772
I'd give the second season's ova a 10. I still can't get over Tsunako's Nepgear clone obsession. Besides the fact that Shido is just Fang.

>>145139869
Who?

Anyone know why she joined that sumbag of Westcott?

You fuckers miss this show don't you? There were three DAL threads yesterday and I know, they were dead but people attempt to have discussions of this so much lately.

>>145135772
Where do I subscribe?

>>145140456
What?

>>145139596
and yet Tohka is still more popular than her among LNfag. Seriously, this argument is just as stupid as "it has a lot of porn so it must be popular" when it's not always the case.

>>145140382
>There were three DAL threads yesterday
with the opening post shitting on the series or a character.

>>145140382
OP here, I saw a couple of threads the past days and I even posted in one of those, but I didn't pay that much attention since I was still watching the series. I don't see the problem in making yet another thread myself now that I finished watching the TV series.

>>145140456
Sorry, idiots are currently being rejected, no subscription available for you.

>>145141620
>You just finished watching this.
Welcome, as you may not know, DAL threads have been dead for quite a while already and the only lively threads were with summary anon who hasn't shown up since vol.14. Leaving you aside, people claim this show is nothing special and is dead but lately there have been many threads of this popping up recently so I figured people do miss this series despite what they say.

>>145142089
I don't think is anything special, did I say it was a masterpiece or something like that? I didn't, right? So, I don't see the problem in making a thread about a show you just finished watching. I also don't see the problem in making a thread about a show that for some reason you start missing, as long as people don't start making generals.

>>145142606
>giving a 7-8 score to a "nothing special" series
Wat

>>145141400
The faggot thought the MC was shit. It was enough to know it was bait.
>>145142606
You should start reading the novels.

>>145139445

S2 killed the show.

>>145143412
Yeah, pretty much. That and the fact we ran out of content to discuss.

>>145143412
Why?

>>145141330
>Tohka is still more popular than her among LNfag

Says who? Polls with 500 votes?

>>145143671
Encores and the dragon Magazine.

>>145143573
Did you watch it? I think it's pretty obvious.

>>145141620
>Taking the bait.

>>145143797
He probably watched the BD version.

>>145143797
Don't forget short stories, last time the author did a poll to decide which girl gets a new short story Tohka won 2 and Kurumi 1.

>>145143930
Even watching the BD version should be obvious, the art is vastly inferior to season 1 and the amount of still shots increased and are still there.

>>145143797
>>145143930
I've seen animes with worse quality selling good.
Look at Konosuba last season for example.

>>145144025
>Konosuba
I don't think it looked worse than DAL II unless you watched the BD version. The TV version was terrible, I mean the very first episode caused most fansubbing groups and anime onlyfags to drop the series.

>>145144025
Yes, but konosuba was a new anime. DAL had already aired and people expected the same quality.

It doesn't help it was a fucking filler episode.

>>145144480
They should just fucking stop with the filler shit. It's not worth it. If they make a third season, they better seize the 12 episodes very well and not waste it in original shit.

>>145135772
It's Infinite Stratos with worse girls but a better MC

>>145144851
>IS
Anon.

>>145144851
>worse girls
>implying any harem can have a cast of more one-dimensional girls like IS girls

>>145143510
Vol.15 is due to september. But I guess those threads will also be dead since summary anon is no longer with us.
