Highschool DxD

Before I start, let me say one thing. If you don't like boobs, ass and nudity, then Highschool DxD is definitely not an anime for you! I'm sorry, but I find it funny whenever people watch an anime with "ECCHI" listed as the genre would bitch, moan and complain about the fan service. If you don't like ecchi simply because boobs and ass scares you then 1.) You can avoid it and just don't watch it altogether 2.) You can give it a chance but if you still don't like it, then by all means drop it.

Personally, I really enjoyed the series for what it is so far. If one can actually overlook the fan service, which is tame compared to a lot of ecchi anime I've seen out there (I know because I love ecchi anime. If you got a problem with me liking ecchi - SUCK IT! We're all entitled to our preferences and tastes!), it does have an interesting story and a solid plot for an ecchi anime much like Sora no Otoshimono for an example. The art, animation and sound quality are great in my opinion.

Even if you're not that much of an ecchi fan, I do think it deserves to be given a chance and for anyone who like anime with the elements of comedy, ecchi, harem and supernatural genres, then I recommend you to check this series out. Peace. read more

Personally I loved this show, I honesty dont care much for the echi in the show but to let others know if you dont like it at all, avoid this show. If you do like it your in for a treat. Now if you want to watch it for its interesting story and humor its very good in my opionion.

Story:8
Based off a series of novels this anime follows it closely. Its your normal highschool boy struggling to gain power throughout the anime and is feared for the power he may one day posess, with your typical harem mixed in with it. But what i find interesting in the story is the christain's church's staning in it, i loved how the anime talks about fallen angels, angels and demons are battling each other (or once did).

Art:7
I want to say the art is better than a 7, but i just cant. there were quite a few instances where they could have worked with the coloring and even the backgrounds a bit more or add certain details in some of the combat. but overall it was good so there i nothing really to bash on it about.

Sound:7
The sound was good, the sound effects were spot on but could have been chosen better at certain times again. the songs wer decent nothing really got me all hyped about so all in all, it was good.

Character:8
Every character was different which was nice. dont get me wrong they over exagerated certain aspects of the characters but that is its humor in the anime so i dont see a fault in it at all. such as the perverted teenager is exagerated beyond words but, its humorous in the situations it puts him in. Now with the 12 episodes of going through certain character's backgrounds it did very well. Now if they get a second season and stick with the novels it will soon tell the story of every person in the group and explains why each one was chosen by Rias (the master devil of the group) and why they hold grudges to certain groups.

Enjoyment:9
I really enjoyed it but this may be a little biased due to reading the books and getting really pumped for the show. But if you dont mind all the perverted scenes go ahead and watch this, its funny, puts the viewer in a good mood (most of the time), and has a decent story which is easy to follow.

Overall:8
Overall it was very nice. It may have some bad moments throughout the anime but overall it kept me either laughing, or on the edge of my seat waiting for more every week. And i hope whoever watchis this anime will enjoy it as much as i have. read more
