Jun Nakagawa is directing the 5th season at studio GEEKTOYS. The first season of the series aired in 2013, by studio AIC +. Production IMS animated the second season in 2014, and it was followed by an anime film, Date a Live: Mayuri Judgment, in 2015. The franchise returned in 2019 by J.C. Staff. Keitaro Motonaga directed all installments.
In 2020, studio GEEKYTOYS animated 2 consecutive spin-off movies for Kurumi Tokisaki titled, Date A Bullet: Dead or Bullet, and Date A Bullet: Nightmare or Queen. The same studio also animated the 4th season in 2022. Jun Nakagawa also directed all of the preceding series that were animated by GEEKTOYS.
The anime is based on Koshi Tachibana’s Date a Live light novel series. Fujimi Shobo published it with Tsunako’s illustrations from 2011 to 2020, and it has a total of 22 volumes in circulation. Yen Press is serializing the light novel in English and describes the plot as:
April 10. The first day of school. Shido Itsuka is rudely awoken by his personal alarm clock—his little sister. It’s shaping up to be another typical day…well, as typical as it gets on a planet plagued by massive spatial quakes. Little does Shido know, however, his life is about to take a sudden turn when he encounters the source of this destructive phenomenon—a girl his age, apparently known as a Spirit. Turns out, there are only two ways he can stop her from unleashing hell on the world: Eliminate her by force or placate her…by taking her out on a date and making her fall in love with him!
