Zafkiel is the angel wielded by Kurumi Tokisaki in Date A Live, the anime adaptation of the Japanese light novel series. Shaped like a giant clock, it grants Kurumi control over time, making its summoning one of her most recognisable moments. Clips of her calling on Zafkiel circulate widely in anime edits, AMVs and fan videos, where the line works as shorthand for a powerful, confident entrance. Its lasting appeal comes from Kurumi's enduring popularity and the dramatic, time-bending imagery attached to the name.
About this sound
The 'Come at me, Zafkiel' anime sound effect from Date A Live, featuring Kurumi Tokisaki summoning her time-controlling angel for dramatic edits and anime memes.
This short clip captures a dramatic anime summoning moment built around the spoken line calling on Zafkiel, delivered with the confident, theatrical energy of a character preparing for battle. The voice is clear and commanding, rising over a brief surge of stylised sound design that gives the moment weight and urgency without drowning out the words. For a viewer, it lands as a declaration rather than a throwaway line: something powerful is about to be unleashed, time itself feels like it might bend, and the scene is suddenly charged with anticipation for the attack, reveal, or comeback that follows.
