It's not really needed but Issei does admire Rias and wants to be worthy of her
Yeah, that too. But he more than a great man enough for his harem brigade.

I always take it that he just want to be more confidence on himself because as i read the LN, when he the one who tells or narrates the story, he always place himself as lower as possible from the others. Just my own interpretation anyway.


Your interpretation is quite accurate.

Yeah, it makes sense that he would want to be independent rather than as a 'servant' if he wishes to marry Rias some day. Still, would hate to see the group separate :(

I really should read the LNs, but they're so many of them and I'm just too lazy xD

Kuroka is one busty beauty. Honestly, I'd say that her and Koneko are my favorite female characters at the moment.

The fanservice was too good lol

The majority of this episode was buildup but the final parts were worth it....Diodora is a cunt and I really hope that Issei kicks his ass

Overall it was a good episode and I'm hoping that everyone in the group has great moments in the next episode

When Darklight gets in a fight, he gets in there good.

Anyway, Kuroka wants the D. You know, the dragon child. Not even Vali go touching that, though.
I like how Irina brings more humor into this. As for Odin, he brings in the Gungnir.
Xenovia will probably be beast with Ascalon.

Seems like Diodora going to get rekt next time.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

Just watched the episode lol, getting behind on this.

Koneko is so cute now! I can't believe that she have less screen time in the previous seasons, but I'm glad she got more time here.

Hauuu~ Koneko getting more moe and close to Issei, good development Koneko!



Also the cutest scene of the episode:


And not to forget the scene where Koneko-chan waited for Issei to sleep with him~

Asia was taken by Astaroth upside-down.
Odin was super OP there! Gungnir!
see-thru is more erotic than being total nekkid.
Azazel-sensei has other plans and those intel weren't shared to Issei's group to avoid being compromised.
3/5.

The boobage was strong in this one.

Also, it kind of seems like Odin is the most powerful character we've seen so far.

Oooooodiiiiin! Ooooooooooodiiiiiin!

Kudos to anyone who gets what I'm referencing with that.

Issei claims he wants to become a harem king or something and yet a peck on the cheek freaks him out so much he stumbles of the room. What is it with male protagonists and harems... they act pretty much the opposite way I or any male person I know would act in that dreamy situation.

I was actually excited for the rating game but then Asia goes and gets kidnapped again, not sure if the subs were spot-on but for me Issei said,
"I'll protect you... again I'll..." - which was really just adding salt to the wound of a recurring motivation that got old immediately after the first time they used it.

I remember back a couple episodes Issei was dreaming (or thinking) about Raynare (his ex who killed him) which I took as a hint that she would be making a reappearance sometime in the season but alas nothing of the sort so far, which confuses and upsets me some because;

a. why would they bother having him dream about her if she isn't coming back and
b. apart from Kuroka who has since replaced her, she was by far my favorite villain in the entire series.

Michael gave that sword to Issei sometime in S2 and he fused it with the gear. I didn't remember him using it too much though. According to wikia it "was previously used by Saint George to kill a Dragon" so I guess it's a proper gift for Issei.

Mod Note: Spoilers and extensive quote towers incorporating the spoilers have either been tagged or removed. Don't spoil and try to avoid the unsightly quote towers which just make the thread difficult to read.

One of the nice touches in this episode was just how much Rias cares about her family and making them all happy. Of course that means sharing Issei around with the other girls. Not to enter into the long debate that I had to edit in this thread, but I think Issei is growing and developing as the series continues. You might want to contrast him with the other two members of the perverted trio who he's left behind.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Man, Issei is like, the luckiest bastard ever. I am so glad that High school DxD will obviously have a harem end. All girls are cool.
I kinda wouldn't have mind Astaroth taking Asia if he was a real gentleman and if Asia wanted it, too.....but damn, go fuck him up now, Issei.

I just love the amount of mythology this show has in it, it really surprised me when all these other gods and such were being introduced and how almost everything is based off actual mythology from around the whole world. I think it's really amazing and makes me love the show even more, i wish the seasons were longer since I'll be finishing all the seasons before 3 days is over and I can't stand when I have no more episodes of an anime I really enjoy to watch.

That episode. Rias and Akeno fight each other for Issei was funny. So much boobs :D

Kuroka also seems to like Issei more and more, especially when she asks him to make a baby with her lol (wtf moment).

Wow Odin is really strong and has a good taste ;)

Asia got kidnaped by Diodora, I hope Issei will beat the s*** out of him.

At first I didn't mind Diodora but that smug look and arrogant attitude really makes me not like this dick anymore. And then him allying with the terrorists and using Asia as a shield. Thats pathetic and low. Kick his ass Issei.

Koroka out of no where like that and coming on to Issei was unexpected.

Koneko putting on that outfit O_O Oh my gosh. Was not expecting that. I agree Issie, so many mixed emotions. And getting kissed by Xenovia too. Lucky bastard. Yes I would have preferred it on the lips.

Damn. Odin is badass. Don't mess with him. And so is Azazel. He is probably my favorite character in the show.

I didn't know Odin is such a perv, well with Akeno who wouldn't?! Akeno's ass totally deserves that!
Kuroka wants his babies too, why I'm not surprised
Rias jealousy funny to watch, Akeno is so naughty :P
and of course Xenovia kiss should be on the lips, Rias and Akeno used their opportunities after all
And at last delicious undeveloped Koneko-chan decided to join in his harem too, nya :3
I think Koneko should be Issei imouto, would be good addition to Kirino and Kotori (same voice actress Ayana Taketatsu) and anime tradition :P

Great episode with lots of very good fanservice scenes. Issei should have properly thanked Irina for suggesting that the girls wear transparent clothes, they're sexy and cute as heck!

Also, why many bad guys in anime start having large mouths when they reveal their evil intentions?

These Rating Games are always more trouble than they're worth. Why does Issei keep participating in them? lol

Koneko is very affectionate now, compared to how she was a few episodes ago. The events in the Grimory realm must've made an impression on her.
