High School DxD (light novel)
| Thank you for this. |
| Thank You for posting this. As an anime-only watcher I am still bothered by the fact that BorN did not adapt the novels well, I still enjoyed the season but it was the weakest of the three. I was even thinking of reading the volumes that BorN was meant to adapt so that I could get the true story in preparation for the new season but I kept forgetting to do so. I hope they can fill in the gaps with an OVA or something and that we can get seasons 5 and beyond. |

| I dropped BorN entirely after several episodes as it was a mess. I really hope Hero covers things up. Guess I'll just have to really watch BorN to watch Hero as it's a direct sequel. *Sigh* Just a wishful thought, it would've been nice if Hero was a remake of BorN or Season 3 Alternative. |
| Why it includes only 13 episodes ? :( btw anyone can tell me if release times are also uncensored ? |

| I just realized I barely remember Season 3 xD. Could you elaborate on what was it that they cut from the Loki arc?? I only remember it being all over the place and then that hideous anime-original finale... Wait, was it I really have very vague memories about the 3rd season xD. I could have sworn that was in the animation... but now that I think about it... it wasn't. Damn, was BorN bad. |
| Well its a good thing that they are faithfully adapting the LNs for this season. I dont read LNs or manga but from the past experiences i can definetly say that faithful adaptations are always better. blueswizzle said: Well they can adapt that part as OVAs or ONAs like Oreimo diddeki_speed said: so their is a possible chance that their won't be a season 6 bc of missing info from born I think there is a chance if season 4 sells really well. Even though they cut out the important part from Born, the are continuing with the 4th season like Born never happened. So there's is a chance that we will se the cut out part in season 4 as a flashback or something. |

| Thanks OP for posting that. As a anime-only watcher, I also felt out of place with BorN (maybe only with the last chapters). I'm also curious about the event that was cut. |
| Please consider reading my novel for MAL x Honeyfeed Writing contest 2023 https://www.honeyfeed.fm/novels/12252 |
| Thanks for clearing things up mate |
| Quick question: was that whole "Raymere flashbacks/dreams" Issei was having in BORN in the novels or was that anime original? That didn't seem to be going anywhere. |

That assisted in pushing Issei to enter Juggernaut Drive when he thought Asia died. Idk if it was a part of the novels, but it did go somewhere. |

Yes Issei was having nightmare's etc about Raymere in the novels, it actually plays a pretty big role in his interaction with the girls around him. |
| OP: Thank you very much for the clarifications. Hopefully this'll help reduce the number of times certain questions get spammed this season. The only odd thing I noticed is that Bikou's hair is now brown.. Not sure why'd they'd go with a 3rd color other than to mix things up w/ too many light colors already? Oh! In the closing scene at track, it actually looks like Issei is taller than Rias. So they aren't totally ignoring physical character growth. ^^ They might be the same height.. hard to tell w/ these hairstyles. lol Newhopes said: Nain said: That assisted in pushing Issei to enter Juggernaut Drive when he thought Asia died.

The trauma from Reynare is the primary reason why Issei is still not a teen father. >_>;; He tries to come up with all sort of internal justifications about love and honor and respect.. but the truth is.... chicks be scary. ._.;; |

The guy has boobies getting flung at him left, right, and centre. He's the harem king we need. No sympathy here. |

We are talking about the MC who's brain BSODs when trying to comprehend what two naked girls are trying to communicate when they throw themselves at him and say "Let's make babies." Raynare is his ultimate anti-fetish and this is unarguable canon. lol MoltenFlame said: Quick question I've only seen the anime but I knew Born was terrible and did a little digging into the light novel as was just wondering does Edit: Also I've read this a bit but just to confirm should I just follow along with what happend in Born in Episode 1-9 and just ignore episodes 10, 11 and 12? Try marathoning BoRN while drunk off your ass.. Perhaps the classic "take a shot when you see a tit" drinking game would work for this. I don't recommend the "Random Gainaxing" game unless you are doing so with trustworthy friends who you can safely argue with over questionable calls along with someone who can function as an impartial referee. Then whatever you remember 4 days later is probably what matters. :3 |

| Thanks for the info OP. I've heard about it for so long that while I did buy it, I also took the info with a grain of salt until there was some sort of proper confirmation. I hope Passione does the best with Hero and that it allows them to make more faithful anime adaptations for the series. |

The recap episode was also well-received so far from Japanese fans, so it might've been testing the waters. All the retcon episode did to help this season was show the heroes at the end. That's assuming if they even plan to go that far. They might. DxD is pretty damn popular and it alway sells well when a new vol comes out. I'm just glad Ishibumi is doing the script writing this time. |
| Can someone tell me in a spoiler what was supposed to be the very important scene that got cut? Sadly my Japanese is not up to light novel reading levels yet. Luckily I also forgot most of the last horrible season so this retcon helped to reset it lmao. |

| to the OP. There are some stubborn individuals who refuse to accept the truth. If you could possibly link to the interviews so as to silence their pathetic resistance once and for all, that would be great. |

If you could possibly link to the interviews so as to silence their pathetic resistance once and for all, that would be great. I'd have to ask Code-Zero. This stuff is common knowledge on some Japanese boards like 5ch, but Code-Zero is the one who got the magazines and translated them for us about a year ago. I'll see if I can't find scans of them later. Anyways, if they want to delude themselves into thinking otherwise, it doesn't really matter. It was obvious to anyone that something was off in BorN. Bring it up to him anyway if it's not a bother. Wouldn't hurt to have more validity so that the delusions can be put under the sunlight to shrivel up and die |
| I knew some of this already. The parts I didn't know where the staff stuff and what percentage of each volume the anime did. I was originally going to read Volumes 5-7 before the BD's for Hero come out, but it appears I'm just going to have to start from the beginning. |
| If you see that my post is exactly 1 month old (or more) from when it was posted... Don't waste your time, especially when you want to reply with something petty & insignificant. Assume that I've moved on (because I have). |
| Couldn't they just reboot everything from the end of season 2? That would've been much better, having a proper adaptation of LN 5-7 with a proper design. |
