| Although this is not a great show by any stretch of the word...I have been enjoying it a lot so maybe I will preorder the DVDs depending. |
| Looking at posts on the Internet wouldn't bother me so much if people didn't also mix up he and she. |
| Boobs. |

  |
| Completely expected. Funimation always licenses shows with lots of tits. They always seem to sell well so it would only be expected that they continue to license them. At least this show isn't absolutely terrible like some of the other fanservice shows that they've licensed. |
| Ok™ |
| Well done on licensing the shittiest anime of the season. Hey, Funi, you guys ever going to release those Steins;Gate DVDs? You know, maybe before 2013? |

I think people are getting in over their heads about this show just because it shows some a lot of tits and shit. Big deal. |

If it's a good then....maybe I will get my hands on it some day down the road(since while I can't read it now, I will be learning some Japanese pretty soon). |

Anyway, it was expected, but I still lol'd a bit when I saw the only title from this season FUNi picked up so far is the full-on boobie show. |
| This should be interesting to see how the show turns out. |

I was going for more of a "Modern Warfare syndrome" or a "Twilight syndrome" where no matter how terrible it is, it'll still have record sales. |

Not all the chapters have been translated yet but it should be enough for you to read and know a bit more about the story. Besides all the ecchi and fan-service, I really enjoy it. |
|
| Of course they did. |
 |
| Nothing wrong with fanservice. |
  |
| I was wondering when I'd finallly get to see FUNi licensing something again. Let's see how this one turns out now... |

Damn I fucking hate that niche, considering sekirei is a good series. Hell, most youtube comments on the sekirei promos are people telling Funi off for treating it like some softcore porn. Yea sex sells, but most fans actually CARE about the plot of this show. Plus it doesn't help trying to recommend a series, and you get crazy looks. And was hoping Sentai would grab DxD..dammit |
McRib said: We have a saying along the lines of: what belongs together, will find a way to be together.Completely expected. Funimation always licenses shows with lots of tits. I'm only surprised because I thought Sentai already licensed it |
| Seximation strikes again. I like Highschool DxD and I hope it sells well. GO_KLAC-IGER said: ok now anyone thinking should we named funi to funi-service? give oh yes for dxd dub got how much they go till either manyuu hikenchou or this http://myanimelist.net/anime/11763/ either way we all win. lol Few liked Manyuu and as for the anime in your link, 99% chance. |
 |
| lol seen this from a mile away since Funi has the "Boobies FTW" mindset. Thats the only thing that probably sells well enough for them nowadays. Plus I also knew cause Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? is similar to this show so I knew they were going to get it except KwZDk is probably way better than HS DxD. This is why I like Sentai more we have a variety of genres both subbed and dubbed. |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| that's funimation for u they won't miss a chance to get an anime with boobies lol |
| Oh, jee, that sure was unexpected... -.-V |
| ..what's that...I smell butt hurt. |
| "Yo, Buddy. Still alive?" -Solo Wing Pixy, AC:Zero (best game ever) |
| There are always way too many people hating on fanservice & whatnot with shows like this. Honestly if you're not a fan, just stay away from the discussions around these shows. We've all read your opinion before and we probably don't want to read for the 967th time. Oh you don't like fanservice animes? Cool, now move along. |
| No. I want you to read my opinion. Besides, the only good fanservice anime is Queen's Blade. I've tried most of them, but they're usually awful, like Seikon no Qwaser, Maken-Ki, and Manyu Hikenchou. Even the older stuff like Mouse makes me want to gouge my eyes out. |
| I want Nichijou :( |
 |
| They didn't watse any time. :o No suprise though. |
 |
| Nice. Hope the dub gets good :D |
| Akeno will be voiced by Monica Rial. No doubt. |
 |
| How will they release this with all that nunservice and |

ZetaZaku said: How will they release this with all that nunservice and This isn't the 1980's and 1990's man. Funi did Strike Witches which is loli. My Main concern is will they release the DVD/BD 99% uncensored like in Japan. |

My Main concern is will they release the DVD/BD 99% uncensored like in Japan. Talking about Strike Witchers, they didn't bother removing the loli nipples in the American version, so I doubt they will do any changes from the Japanese BD in this case. |

| I agree with modshroom. If you're not a fan of fanservice anime, then go away. Nobody wanna read your sh*t opinion so go and get some attention elsewhere. Criticism is welcomed but you guys simply bad-mouthing smth. Also before you judge smth first read it's original source (the light novel in this case). @smxmartin21 IIRC there's a 12th volume where Issei probably returns. Not sure how. Relunx |

This guy.. he's joking, right? @ bakayaro - It's not always morals that make people dislike ecchi, and it's not always because of the ecchi that some dislike this show. |

Sir_Lexa said: bakayarokonoyaro said: You make me laugh because you actually took it serious, i pity you poorly raised creature. on a side note, just because you dislike it doesn't mean you should bitchin' and moanin' about it, it's obviously not for you, move on. I have not bitched and moaned. -sigh- I actually think High School DxD is an okay anime. If the main focus was not giving fapping material to people like you, it could have been pretty decent. This anime isn't fapping material. funny thing is, fap material usually makes more money than regular animes, Eroges in japan are heating the markets and making more money than idol buisness. so the more you complain, the bigger the fool you're making out of yourself. "people like you" Well excuse me, last time i checked, i wasn't a troll who goes around complaining about anime with fanservice and telling people not to fap to it. |
bakayarokonoyaro said: Sir_Lexa said: @bakayarokonoyaro Whatever. I'm not in the mood of flaming back and forth. Hell I'm never in the mood for that. Haven't complained though about anything. The only thing I'm complaining about is your thinking that everyone who doesn't care about ecchi and/or fanservice anime are obviously gay. But if your just trolling with that opinion, I'm fine with leaving this discussion as it is. If you need to bitch and flame back at me, write on my profile or PM me. You're never in the mood for that, yet you still replied to my post for teh sake of trolling. once again, that was obviously a joke, you took it seriously. who's a troll now? anyways, i'm not the type of guy who likes to argue over minor things online, that's immature, so let's end this conversation right here. Agreed. And just so you know, I never troll. EDIT: Decided to delete all my post from this thread. The news forum is not a place for unnecessary discussions and flaming. |

| People bitch too much about fanservice. It's like they've never seen a boob before. What's worse, they can't look past the fanservice and see that(while it CERTAINLY isn't the best and has some moments that are kind of stupid, see episode 10...) it actually has a pretty good story. |
| Lemme smang it girl. |
| awesome dont have to worry about getting it on ebay then |
