Ep 7. Visitors

Shido has been tasked with sealing the spirits who cause spacequakes, but the process requires him to go on dates with them and make them fall in love with him. In this episode, an unexpected visitor arrives in town. It's Kotori's classmate, Yoshino, who is also a spirit. However, unlike the other spirits, Yoshino is shy and afraid of humans. She has the power to control temperature and create a puppet-like being out of water, named "Yoshinon."

Shido is assigned to date Yoshino and make her fall in love with him. However, he quickly realizes that she is not like the other spirits he's dealt with before. She's innocent and gentle, and he feels a strong urge to protect her. Meanwhile, Kotori is worried about Yoshino's presence in the city, as she knows that her classmate has the potential to cause a spacequake.

As Shido spends more time with Yoshino, he learns about her past and comes to understand the reasons behind her fear of humans. He also discovers that Yoshinon is not just a puppet but is actually a separate entity with a mind of its own. Together with Tohka, who has also become friends with Yoshino, they try to help her overcome her trauma and learn to trust humans.

In the midst of all this, a mysterious figure appears, observing them from afar. This person seems to have a connection to both Shido and the spirits, and their motives remain unknown. As the day of the date draws to a close, Shido must confront his feelings for Yoshino and decide what he truly wants to accomplish in his mission to seal the spirits.

This episode explores the themes of trust, friendship, and the power of empathy. It shows how even beings with otherworldly powers can be afraid and need someone to help them overcome their fear. Shido's relationship with the spirits continues to evolve, and the series introduces a new character with her own unique abilities and personality.

Overall, "Visitors" is a heartwarming and emotional episode that further develops the characters and the world of Date A Live. It has a good mix of action, comedy, and drama, and it leaves the audience wanting more.
