To LOVE-Ru Darkness (anime)

This article talk about the anime. For its original manga, see To Love Ru Darkness Manga Chapters

To Love Ru: Darkness is the sequel to the first manga series and the third anime series in the To Love Ru franchise. It is more mature than To Love Ru & Motto To Love Ru; it retains its usual perverted comedy, but with more focus on its plot and more serious story and character development, and now provides much more graphic fanservice.



The To Love Ru: Darkness anime series is composed of twelve episodes and six OVAs. Each OVA episode consists of two or three story segments, each an adaptation of a chapter in the manga, with the first segment serving as the pilot episode of both the anime series and OVA series. The anime is based on the To Love Ru: Darkness manga by Saki Hasemi and Kentaro Yabuki, and more closely follows the manga than the first two series. The series was announced on March 31st, 2012 and the first episode aired on October 5th of the same year on Tokyo MX. The anime is produced by Xebec and directed by Atsushi Ootsuki.

The opening theme for the first season is "Rakuen Project" by Ray; the ending theme is "Foul Play ni Kurari" by Kanon Wakeshima.

The second season, titled To Love Ru: Darkness 2nd, began airing in July 2015.
