Waiting for season 5 just to how cao cao will be defeated by boob dragon. Overall it was amazing anime (not for everyone) and entertaining. Thank you.
This show certainly isn't for everyone. I couldn't recommend it to anyone other than young men, who will most certainly at least enjoy the constant nudity. But that shouldn't put everyone off. The series starts off seeming perverted, but as it progresses it starts getting soppy, cutesy and romantic. And so what? It's a boy's show, meant for boys at the kind of age where hot girls and breasts are all that matter, and in that area, it works.
The main point of criticism I have is in the writing. Some of the dialogue, is, well, pretty embarrassing, but on the whole it's okay. And I couldn't help feeling that the plots could be better; that many things about the demons weren't explored as much as I wanted them to be. In fact, the writing goes out of the way to include something to with boobs or whatever, but I guess that's what the exploitation genre is all about.
But still, the animation was very good, as was the music. Some of the battle sequences were thrilling, and the interactions between the main protagonist and his friends were pretty hilarious. On the whole, I enjoyed it; not for everyone, but if you're into this sort of thing, give it a go.

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)
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!

- 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

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.

Thanks for that super anime
Actually it's the best ever
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)

You come for the fanservice but stay for the plot. The plot isn't good but isn't bad either, it's decent for what it is. It's supposed to ridiculous but not much to say really.

Even the most innocent anime's portray women (more often girls) as submissive, scantly clad creatures with high pitched voices and airhead personalities, but this anime goes too far. The show relies on constant sex jokes and female nudity to distract from what is otherwise a bland and uninspired story. Even the action and fight scenes are focused on large bouncing breasts and making sure you see the characters skimpy panties under their short school girl skirts. I can definitely understand why a straight male would love this anime, but it's not for me. I like to keep my anime and my porn separate.
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.

This is a really hard show to explain. On one hand, it is completely ridiculous with the fan service. The outro and intros to the commercials are literally just naked pictures of the heroines. On the other hand, there are some really exciting moments where you can really sympathize with the MC. You'd have to watch the show to actually experience it, and even though I usually have horrible second-hand embarrassment which this show should have triggered, I didn't really feel it. It takes itself completely seriously at times, and at others, it devolves into a oppai fueled mess(but still amazing though). It's quite hard to describe it really, other than this anime is all over the place and is a great ride through all of it. Only complaint is they should have gotten some better artists(Oreimo& Date a Live animators, I'm looking at you).
"High School DxD" is one of the best anime tv show in America. It looked pretty interesting. In all 12 episodes all the way to Season 1 to Season 4, there are lots of funny moments, and some hot sexy scenes, but I think for me, it's not half bad as many people think.
High School DxD is a pretty good show so far, and one of my two favorite characters are: Rias Gremory and Akeno Himejima, because there nice, strong and powerful women, that not what they expected :)

High school DXD is one of the best anime has a great story line as well as with some great characters.It is an anime with a lot of nudity and boobs but it clearly doesn't mean that it lack in content.Issei the protagonist of the show is one of the most hilarious character.He can make u laugh even in the most intense scenes you can think of.The show is somewhat related to mythology as well as it's about the three factions present in the world the devil's,fallen angels and Angels.
The reason this show is loved by so many people is cause it attracts people in masses.If you are looking for a romantic show or with a lot of actions or a show with mythology or looking for a show with lot of humor.you will love this show.its also ranked as the most perverted show on the Top Tens website.Doesn't it makes the show sound more awesome. I started watching this just because my friend recommend it to me .And I was like if it's a harem anime it will just just have nudity and no story at all.But I have to accept I still thank him for recommending this show to me.I literally got hooked from the first episode and couldn't stop myself until I didn't finish all the 3 seasons.I have become an absolute fan of this show.Everyday I search about the official announcement of season 4 of this show.I will always be eagerly waiting for the new season.I really can't understand how this show can even lose its popularity. Guyz if you like the show make sure u rate it the best on IMDb to force the producers of this show to make a new season as soon as possible.I guarantee this show won't make u bore even a bit at any moment .

This show in my opinion is worth a watch plus they also already have 3 Seasons right now & there should be a Season 4 released out in the late Feb. or in the early part of March 2017 & would be worth the buy but in Season 3 that Scott Freeman isn't playing as Issei in it but it's a still great Season but still worth a buy & I'm ready for Season 4 to be released & when it comes out I'll be glad it does to have in my collection. You can go on YouTube to learn about what happens in Season 4 & I give this show in my opinion a 10/10 but for Season 3 a 9/10 since Scott Freeman wasn't playing as Issei for some odd reason that I don't know why, tho & I don't remember which website I got Season 3 from but I think amazon or eBay i think but I don't think Seasons 1-2 is available on bestbuy.com anymore but that's where I got the 1st 2 Seasons from, just so you know.

Don't let the fan-service fool you or put you off, this is pretty good! Ratings for the twelve S1 episodes,
Ep1 ~ 7/10; Ep2 ~ 7/10; Ep3 ~ 8/10; Ep4 ~ 8/10; Ep5 ~ 7/10; Ep6 ~ 7/10; Ep7 ~ 8/10; Ep8 ~ 8/10; Ep9 ~ 7/10; Ep10 ~ 8/10; Ep11 ~ 7/10; Ep12 ~ 8/10
All the vocal performances are spot-on (English dub), the artwork is great, the plot is intriguing, and the mythology of the Devils, Angels, and Fallen Angels is pretty deep. The music's catchy too (especially the end titles). It occasionally feels a little drawn out, but I guess it was necessary in order to put each episode's cliffhanger at exactly 23 minutes. Also, the lead character Issei's school friends are embarrassingly bad; fortunately they appear less as it goes on. And yes, there are boobs. Lots of boobs. And panty shots. But they played no part at all in this review! Overall, 7.5/10. Looking forward to Season two.

If you just a weird person who like naked girls uncensored watch it. I watch the first 12 episode (first season) and I dropped it. The show gets to like an excititng state good villian. Then turns it to a ridicules disguesting arc. Its okay for the show to have these fanservice girls. But in every single part of the show where they have actual good writtin stuff it turn bad cause the main character will only defeat the villian if the girl so she wants to date him or go to bed with him. And issei (main character) has a horibble personality and they need more male characters.
It has really beautiful base(story base, not some other 😉😉😉) and also the characters are well built even the female characters are really beautiful (except for season 4 I didn't get why they changed the animation in 4), but what matters is all the characters are really perverted and realllyyyy forwarded but still I love it (not the H scene, the story)
Carton as ecchi animation, this is the worst animation's characters ever
How is ecchi like an cartoons animation But its not for kids!!?
I didn't think I would like the show because it had lots of nudity in it, but just watching it I realized it is really a great show

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.
