High School DxD

Okay to get it out of the way, this anime is heavy on the harem which is why I would never recommend this to anyone, this is the kind of anime that you would stumble upon on your own. But having the harem in it is what gives the anime that extra boost and should not be judged for it. A show should be judged by the story and the quality of it which is why I gave it a 9 out of 10.

That being said, this anime is freaking awesome. The story does take an episode or two to get going but once it does, it is fantastic. A story about angels, fallen angels and demons, adding into it with violence and sexual content and boom you got "Highschool DxD". Along with very likable characters like Issei who's dream is to become the "Harem King", to even Satan himself, every character has a personality that the viewer can enjoy.

Now what makes this even better is that if you do decide to watch this anime and get into it, you'll be happy to know that there is a third season being developed and if you're like me and prefer dubbed over subbed November 2014 season 2 will be released in dubbed.

In all from the two seasons that I watched I am very pleased and anxious to watch the third season when it starts and hopefully will continue after that.

First of all, this is an action comedy, harem ecchi romanced, school anime with quite the amount of fan service, if this bothers you, you should not consider this as you will see quite the amount of nudity.

If you on the other hand are not bothered by this, please keep on reading!

Ever since finishing High school DxD New which is the season 2 of this show, I have been trying to find another decent ecchi, harem show. Sad to say i have been very disappointed, and i dare say the reason is that this show unlike many others of it's kind, do have a plot. I also felt like the characters in this show developed quite a bit throughout the show which I find rare in this genre. (Still a lot of show's I haven't seen)

What I also think helped this anime which i liked; - Likable characters! (Especially Issei and Rias)

• Character development

• Well animated

• Good voice acting (Japanese, no clue about dubbed)

• Actually has a plot! (Rare for this genre from what i've seen)

• Pretty cool action scenes

• Protagonist not a total wuss

Probably forgotten about some but anyways, an absolute favorite of mine in this genre and one anime I highly recommend, if you can live with some fan service.

Probably a 8/10 to be realistic, but I am a huge fan giving it a 9/10!

I wasn't too sure what to think about this show going into it. I found the plot synopsis pretty interesting so I thought I would check it surprised me in two ways. 1) the fan service was much heavier than I expected, not that I mind, but holy hell(no pun intended) I am talking tons of full frontal nudity and sexual imagery, and 2) its actually pretty good. It has an engaging plot, good characters, and comedy that extends beyond prat falls and accidental boob grabs. The story centers around Issei Hyodom, a pervert turned Devil and Rias Gremory, A voluptuous devil who is head of a prestigious family. They are solid characters who are much more than your typical harem anime archetypes. Is it the best anime out there? No, but it is a good watch that I would recommend, even if you aren't a fan of fan service. Though admittedly, If you don't like fan service, I could imagine some not liking it. I would say just try to look past it and enjoy a pretty good show.

The story hooks you, this isn't your run of the mill ecchi. This is the best ecchi out there, well of this kind anyway.

So first off the bat, you have a character which is almost speaks your most kinky and perverted desires. Issei has no bounds and it really adds to the comedy and the viewer character relationship. Then you have devils, breasts, but not pointless. An example of this is "Highschool Gf The Dead", OK you get it its an ecchi what do you expect but DXD isn't like that, the main character loving boobs uses it to his advantage creating very comical scenes. Then the action is on par with any other anime I have watched, so be it Attack on Titan, Bleach, Sao, Code Geass, DBZ anything... So OK you do get the random fan service, OK I enjoy it, but even if you do not like ecchi there is more to it. If you like ecchi you are in heaven.

You may be thinking, well you may watched some good stuff but your just a kid who watches ecchi and can't appreciate classics like cowboy bebop. Wrong, I have watched it, its good, but There is an experience that I can't get from anything I have watched, so be it deathnote, akame ga kill, aesthetica rogue hero. Highschool dxd got me most hooked and causing me to want a new season.

Seasonwise, 1 is best for me, 2 is good as well but in the lightnovel you don't get the same action anyway. Season 3 was very good, but it could have been so much better.

For viewers who not sure about Highschool DXD I recommend you finish season 1. It's a must, the last couple of ops are worth it.

It's unfortunate that some people can't see past the sexual comedy in the show to realize the story is quite well developed, and the action and characters all have motivations.

Personally, I like a good sexual comedy anime every once and a while, and DxD delivers. Some of the jokes are subtle, while others are nearly straight up pornographic, which I don't always have a problem with.

The show is well animated and has an excellent English dub for those who prefer to not read sub-titles.

All in all, DxD is amazing and one of my personal favorites. I highly recommend this title to any anime lover (above the age of 13)
