Date A Live
Thirty years ago, a massive spatial quake devastated Eurasia and killed over 150 million people. Since then, smaller quakes have struck periodically, keeping the world on edge. Shidou Itsuka is just your average high school student living with his younger sister Kotori—until a spatial quake breaks out in his city. While rushing to save Kotori, he encounters a mysterious girl at the quake's epicenter. She's a "Spirit," an otherworldly being whose very existence triggers these catastrophic events. Before he can process what's happening, Shidou gets caught between the Spirit and the Anti-Spirit Team, a military force dead-set on exterminating all Spirits. But there's a third player in the game: Ratatoskr, an organization dedicated to saving Spirits instead of destroying them. And it's run by his own sister. Kotori forces Shidou into their ranks and reveals their strategy—the only way to neutralize a Spirit is to make her fall in love with him. So now Shidou's got the weight of the world on his shoulders, tasked with dating his way to global salvation by seducing every Spirit that shows up.
