Yup, I noticed it too after the finale today. I hope this will be an original film! (not a recap)

Or maybe even some cameos from the other characters who have not made an appearance in the anime yet.

So glad to see this show is getting more animated content - this is just one of those weird shows where I went in expecting not to like it and leaving very pleasantly surprised. Hopefully the movie is a continuation from the second season that'll lead into a third season - actually really enjoying the second season's faster pace.

Of all the shows out there that deserve a theatrical film, they pick *this* one.

What's next? A Maken-Ki movie? Confused

That is awesome to hear. I can never have enough Date A Live.

I'm really glad it's become such a big hit.

I've been ignoring this for sometime now but now I'm just starting to get curious. No, I don't think getting a film means I can expect this to be something of real quality but for it to show up this many times there has to be something to it of value...

That doesn't necessarily mean anything. Ikki Tousen has showed up a bunch over the past ten years and it's still complete shit. Neutral

A movie makes sense because there's not enough light novels out to make a season 3.

But a 90min movie would be the perfect length to animate Natsumi's arc. Then leave spoiler[Tobiichi Angel arc] for a third season or ova since it's still on-going in the novels.

Hopefully it's Natsumi's arc because not only do I want to see her animated but I want a figure of her badly. Animating just the Side Stories will do as well.

That's true... but this doesn't really look as bad as that and if I'm wrong and do think it sucks in the end then that'll just be the end of it.

If anything, most of the OST is fantastic and the openings for both seasons are pretty grandiose as well. It's not the BEST SHOW EVER, but for someone who doesn't watch very many of these types of shows, I really liked how entertaining most of the scenes are - especially the more serious stuff in the show.

I am hoping for new content and not just another "Series: the abridged movie"

I want an original film too. Wow. More Date A Live! I couldn't be happier since it is one of my favorite anime series when it premiered back in 2013.
