Don't treat him like an idiot!
- Why are you still an idiot?
- Manipulate this idiot...
For the most part, there are no complaints about imposing girls and ecchi, except for the characteristic ones: fan service to the detriment of the development of characters and the conceptual setting. The only plus anime is beautiful, with a certain level internal development female characters who face internal problems and try to overcome them. I would like to put instead of Issei, if not a progressive progressive, then at least Kazuma, so that the girls find harmony, and do not look like an appendage to a limited protagonist.
It was also nice to listen to Raiser's voice acting in the original voice acting and look at the wiser Azazel.
Now for the cons:
1. Issei is a dumb and impenetrable hero who
leaked the climactic finale of the first season
And now he also wants only boobs. Their abundance in the series is not bad, the bad thing here is that the hero does not learn lessons at all and without a second thought "pathosly" overcomes enemies. For a certain period of time about the events of the final, everyone just scores. Strength does not comprehend in principle, it comes to him by itself. The concentration on the boobs for her work symbolizes. You involuntarily recall the same Kazuma, who, with his fetishes, demonstrates intelligence and observation. The characters change there, the protagonist becomes more cunning and more tolerant of his team.
And here indulgence and acting out good guy with clichéd phrases like "You can always rely on me", "I'll protect you", "%prejudice_name% is bad, you're better than that!". I saw only one example of a good solution - his plan with Koneko in the eighth series (I forgot the season).
Rias, in my opinion, this is also not spared. In the first season, she looks like a girl not devoid of wisdom, a "mother to soldiers", who knows how to drive Issei forward with a carrot. But it turns out that when the story comes to the moments when it seems - here it is, the turning point of the relationship! - it turns out that this is so that Issei would say "Glad to try, president", and she, in turn, would continue to win back and at the same time reflect, they say, why does he address me as "you" ...
As a result, without proper elaboration, this results in
some kind of existential fight between Rias and Issei in a dimensional rift
After the fight with Diodora Astaroth. I don’t even know how to describe it, if you are familiar with the eighth grader syndrome, you will intuitively understand what is wrong with this fantasy incarnate.
2. The concept of the world. She was practically not outlined, they just shook out the bad fallen, good demons and, one must understand, stupid and limited churchmen from the box. If you look, then all the problems are due to specific antagonists, and not because of the absurd caste system or labeling (which is only condemned, but not criticized). One could not even substantiate the confrontation between the factions, but critically add the crisis of such a system to a logical contradiction, when everyone understands that everyone is the same, the enmity is provoked by established ideas about angels, fallen ones and demons. But this is not. Some contracts, intrigues, it is not clear why the war was waged at all. The churchmen, in theory, are represented only by Fried and Valper, who has gone.
However, if we abstract from this, then the anime will bring some pleasure. I'll give it a 7 for good female characters in general, some more advanced ones like Azazel (Rias in his style would also look good), White Dragon, Koneko, and for an unobtrusive, light story. I suggest you find a better one.

From the point of view of a light novel author, readers who are first introduced to his work will think "boobs, boobs, boobs ... Is the author from the planet of boobs?". Those familiar with his work, on the contrary, will think “Is this Ishibumi? Then what happened to the boobs?" . At the beginning of 2017, the continuation of the series was announced, the new studio Passione, which had previously filmed the Rail Wars anime, would take over the film adaptation.
Plot
According to the plot of the light novel, since ancient times, demons have been fighting for control of hell with fallen angels expelled from heaven. In addition, their common enemy was the angels sent by God against both races inhabiting hell. During the endless wars, all three sides suffered huge losses. In particular, both Satan and God were killed during the war. Because of this, several hundred years ago, the warring parties were forced to stop the war without determining the winner. However, relations between the parties are still tense. Due to the huge losses among the population, the demons began to resurrect people as demons. Each such person became a servant of the demon that turned him. In order to encourage new demons to develop themselves, a new rule was introduced - even servants created from people can become nobles if they can become strong demons.
The story follows the main character, Issei Hyoudou. Issei is a preoccupied high school student who has never had a girlfriend. At the beginning of the light novel beautiful girl, Yuma Amano, invites Issei to meet with her, but kills him on the first date, explaining that a certain "Holy Gear" that the Lord placed in Issei, and which poses a threat to the fallen angels, is to blame. Before his death, Issei, without realizing it, summons the demon Rias Gremory, who decides to save him by turning him into a similar demon and making him her servant. He also becomes a member of the school's occult research club, which consists entirely of Gremory's subordinate demons. After learning from the Gremory that by becoming a noble, he can have his own servants and build his own harem, Issei is eager to climb the social ladder of demons. However, it turns out that his magical powers less than that of a child and he cannot use even the simplest spells.
Several magical artifacts are actively used during the plot.
- Sacred Gear (jap. 神器（セイクリッド・ギア） Sekuriddo gia) - magical objects created by God and placed in the bodies of various people. Each holy gear grants its owner a certain magical ability. After the death of the owner, the mechanism passes into the body of another person. As the wearer becomes more proficient with their machine, the machine evolves and acquires new abilities. One of the stages of this evolution is the Balance Breaker. (jap. 禁手（バランス・ブレイカー） Baransu Bureika:, rus. Balance Breaker) .
- Evil Pieces (jap. 悪魔の駒（イーヴィル・ピース） I:viru Pi:su) - 16 chess pieces that every noble demon has. Each figure can be used to resurrect a person as a demon, and give him the ability corresponding to the figure. If a person has great potential, such as owning a rare Sacred Gear, it will take several figures to resurrect them.
- Holy Swords (jap. 聖剣 seiken) - Weapons endowed with holy power. Most of the existing swords are fakes that were modeled after the sword of God. Holy swords are divided into two types: the first type is ordinary swords used by exorcists to exorcise demons and fallen angels; the second type are "true" swords, which can only be used by a select few. Due to the use of holy power, these swords are extremely powerful weapons against demons and fallen angels. Even a small scratch is enough to inflict fatal damage on them. Known Holy Swords - Excalibur, Durandal, Ascalon, Caliburn, "sword of thunder".
Characters
Demons
One of the three races that inhabit the Underworld. During the War, both Satan and his proxies of the Demon Kings and most of the 72 Pureblood Demon Clans were lost. Therefore, the Kings and Satan were re-elected, and a mass conversion of strong representatives of other races began. "Converted" are placed below pureblood demons, but they are also given the opportunity to be promoted. The territory is divided among the surviving pureblood demon families. The capital was moved from Lucifaad to Lilith (both cities are in the territory of Satan).
Gremory clan
Issei Hyoudou (jap. 兵藤一誠 Hyodo: Issei) - main character. A troubled schoolboy who, until recently, never had a girlfriend. His first girlfriend was a fallen angel, Raynal, who killed him on their first date. However, his dying wish to die on Rias' chest allowed him to summon a demon who saved his life by turning him into a demon and making him her servant. Without hesitation, he makes any sacrifice for Rias. He also considers it his duty to protect Asia, but does not notice her feelings, attributing everything to the girl's kindness and her poor understanding of Japanese culture. He makes every effort to climb the social ladder and build his own harem. Wields the holy sword Ascalon, formerly owned by George the Victorious. The sword was given by the archangel Michael for the battle with Kokabiel, who was trying to unleash a new war. He also wields one of Longinus's thirteen weapons, holy gears with the power to kill God or Satan. His body was destroyed by Shalba Beelzebub, but after accidentally meeting the Dream Great Red Dragon, Ophis gained a new body with the help of the Infinity Dragon God.

Although Issei has an unprecedentedly weak magical ability, his Sacred Gear Boosted Gear (jap. ブーステッド･ギア Boo:suteddo gia) , when activated, doubles Issei's powers every ten seconds. Thus, despite his weakness, given enough time, Issei is able to gain immense strength. Ddraig is sealed in this mechanism. Also, its mechanism is able to enhance other people's magic, including the power of the cross and holy water. Due to the fact that he sacrificed his left hand, it represents the paw of the dragon. Therefore, Issei, unlike other demons, can touch such holy objects as a cross with this hand. However, due to regular rituals to draw the dragon's power, the hand remains in human form most of the time. In the team, Rias has the rank of pawn. As a pawn, upon reaching enemy territory, it can turn into any other piece except the king. Thanks to his Sacred Gear, it took all eight of Rias's pawns to resurrect him. Therefore, Issei is the only pawn in her team.

Fallen angels
One of three factions made up of angels who have lost God's grace due to having "dirty thoughts" that distract them from God's teachings in the Bible. Despite being cast out of Heaven, fallen angels and their subordinates usually choose churches as their bases. However, before that, they destroy all the icons there. On this moment, Fallen Angels are the smallest faction compared to the others.
Azazel (jap. アザゼル Azadzeru) - Leader of the Fallen Angels. Absolutely not interested in the resumption of the war. Engaged in collecting and studying the sacred mechanisms. He has advanced so far in his research that he is able to create his own Sacred Gears. Although, they are inferior in quality to those created by God. After the fallen angels, angels and demons made official peace, he became the curator of the occult research club. In the 12th volume, he left the post of leader of the fallen angels.
Reynall- The fallen angel who killed Issei. She pretended to be a girl Yuma in love with him and offered to meet, to which Issei agreed. She was Asia's guardian.
Barakiel- one of the leaders of the fallen angels, was betrothed to a human priestess. Father of Akeno Himejima.
Kokabiel- One of the leaders of the fallen angels. He wanted to unleash a new war between the three races. He was defeated by Vali Lucifer, who came to stop him on Azazel's orders. After being defeated at the hands of Vali, he was sealed in the Underworld at the bottom of Kokytos ("The River of Lamentation" is one of the rivers flowing in the Underworld).
Angels
One of the three main races, along with demons and fallen angels. Angels are powerful beings who serve the God of the Bible and have the power to attack demons. After the death of the God of the Bible in the Three Race War, the angels were not able to increase their numbers in the usual way, but after the creation of the Holy Courage system, they gained the ability to reincarnate people into angels. Unlike demons and fallen angels, angels need to purify themselves through sex, but before that, their partner must also undergo a lengthy rite of purification (taking several hours).
Archangel Michael- the strongest of the angels, after the death of the biblical God began to rule in heaven.
Irina Shido Issei's childhood friend, although Issei himself, not least because of her past bullying nature, considered her a boyfriend. Church agent and staunch Christian. She is one of those who received a holy particle for compatibility with Excalibur, and was the owner of Excalibur Imitation. Knowing how much Irina devoted herself to the faith, her partner Xenovia did not want to reveal to her the truth about the death of the biblical God. But having learned about this from the Archangel Michael, Irina, oddly enough, easily accepted this news, supplementing her faith in God with faith in Michael. With the help of the system, Holy Courage was turned into an angel, subordinate to the Archangel Michael, and received the rank of an ace. After the conclusion of the peace of the Three Races, she accompanies the Rias team everywhere as a representative of Heaven and restored the friendship with Xenovia that had cooled between them due to Xenovia's transformation into a demon, and also became friends with Asia, forming the so-called Church Trio. In love with Issei since childhood.
Dulio Gesualdo“Even before becoming an angel, Dulio was the strongest exorcist ever and was able to fight even against high level demons. Dulio is the strongest of the reincarnated angels, has 10 wings and is a Seraphim candidate.
dragons
One of the most powerful creatures in High School DxD. They always act freely and selfishly. But despite this, dragons have a high level of intelligence. Dragons are creatures that represent power. Because of this, at all times, dragons have been admired, respected and feared. Dragons are the only creatures that didn't help any faction during the Great War, unlike youkai, European monsters, spirits, fairies, and other supernatural beings. However, some dragons did join one of the three factions. Unlike other races that have a long lifespan, dragons are immortal, although they can die if killed. Currently, almost all dragons are either sealed in Sacred Gears, dormant, or dead.
