Highschool DXD

High School DxD Volume 1.png
Highschool DXD is based off of Ichiei Ishibumi's ligt novel Highscool DXD. The series main character is a highscool boy named Issei Hyodo. Issei attends Kuoh Academy because it was an all-girls school that recently turned co-ed, and the amount of girls outnumber the amount of boys at the school.  He lives a peaceful life until a girl named Yuma Amano asks him on a date. Since it's his first date and Yuma is his first girlfriend, Issei wants the date to be special. At the end of their date, they are in a park by a fountain where Yuma asks him if he wants to know what her wish is. Issei thinks he's going to get a kiss from Yumi, and he is speechless when Yuma whispers the words "Can you die for me?". She transformed into a Fallen Angel and killed him. She killed him because he possessed sacred gear which was seen as a threat to the fallen angels. He is soon revived as a devil pawn by Rias Gremory to serve her and her devil family. Issei meets a young girl while in town names Asia Argento and instantly falls in love with her and wants to protect her. Unfortunately for him she's a nun and he's a devil. But when the fallen angel's perform a cerimony to kill Asia and take her Twilight healing sacred gear Issei rushes to her rescue, but wasn't able to save her in time. Rias revives Asia as a devil because of her Twilight healing powers, and with a little help from Rias Asia moves into Issei's house. As the storie goes on we learn that Rias is supposed to marry Riser Phenex a full blooded demon. She didn't want to marry Riser so in order to determine whether or not they would get married they had a rating game, if she won the marriage was of and if he won she had to marry him. Issei was the last of her slaves to fall, and because she lost she had to marry Riser.  Her brother Sirzechs Lucifer who is not the original devil, but a more powerful replacement after the original Lucifer died sent one of his servants to tell Issei that if he cared about Rias, then he should just barge into the wedding and take her back. In order to defeat Riser and get Rias back Issei made a deal with the Red Dragon Emperor, and sacrificed his left arm for a temporary use of power. Overall I liked the series and cant wait for season two. I hope they eventually dub it as well, but ill settle for a season two.
