Episode 11: Shido illuminates how he and Kurumi are the only ones who retain knowledge of the previous timeline. Reine analyzed footage from Origami's Inverse form and theories that despite the alteration of space-time continuum Origami possesses both personas of her current and old self, which the latter acts as a self-defense mechanism whenever she comes across a Spirit. He'd already preschedule the usual plan to have Origami fall for Shido and seal her powers. The two developed genuine moods on their date, although Shido refuses to oblige to Ratatoskr's three-way choice, wanting to advance Origami's previous aspects that catches her attention.

To deal with this problem, the Spirits have to kiss Shido to make the link flow inside him secure, but before they could Shido rampaged out of the infirmary. A flirtatious Shido ignites Yoshino and Miku's powers on the townspeople (including Ellen) to his amusement. Everyone catches up to him and declares he will only cooperate if they can make him fall for them. A competition is held in a manor, the girls dress in swimsuits to charm Shido. Although Origami suggests nudity, change the idea to simply strip to seduce Shido. Kannazuki began to take things too far so Fraxinus shuts off communication. Initially unfazed by their advances, Yuzuru, Kaguya, Natsumi, Yoshino, Kotori, Miku, and Origami spontaneously got Shido to feel lust. Tohka is the final; however, Shido collapse and develops abnormal Spirit signs and a spatial quake is about to emerge from him that could be more disastrous than 30 years ago.

Both Tohka and Shido's Sandalphon clash; a defenseless Tohka walks up and comes to the realization of love, and kisses him. His body and personality is cured, while Shido and Tohka share a moment alone.
That was the summary for Date A Live, am not going to end this post now as I do have something to say about Season 3, in this season there was nothing great about it even through some may said that it is pretty good but to me it was worse then the last two season. Every season was done by a different studio so far, and the first season has bad animation quality at times but still not till the point of one episode to cover the whole volume, even in season two this did not happen at all however season two was shorter in episode count due to the fact that they wanted to end when that arc and not stop in the mid of an arc even through the quality was worse then before, however season three is the worse by far as I had mention earlier this was due to the fact that they covered five volumes of novel content instead of just four with six episode per arc, that was the reason why I hate season three the much and the quality wasn't that great either due to the studio love to cut concerns as some people had pointed. I can go on forever if I were to talk about the studio was the studio did season three did many other well-known series too, such as Index and Railgun to name two of them which Index season 3 to have the same issues but that is for Index's post and I will leave it for other time.
