they have a lot of source materials to adapt. i hope they don't cramp the adaptation because the story is developed well on the following volumes.

and one more thing, what's with the trinity seven comparison anyway?

Welcome to High School DxD, where the good guys are devils and the bad guy is the church(season 2). Awesome.

Is it gonna be the usual? 2 LN Volume in a season?

So if that's Sairaorg Bael Ise is fighting in the PV, that doesn't happen in the LN til, i dunno, vol. 9 at least. That confuses me.It makes sense they would continue with the 2 volumes per season rate, but if Sairaorg is in this season, then either they are doing events out of order, cramming 4 volumes into one 13 ep season (vol. 8 was short stories only), or (and i hope this is true) they're making a 2-cour season. That would be awesome, and it would allow them to catch up somewhat to the LN.

Well, as curzon said, unless they're doing events out of order (which hasn't been the case as of yet in the previous seasons), then there's no way this season is only going to cover only 2 volumes. They have to cover everything from Vol 5 onward, and yet the preview showed the sparring match between Issei and Sairaorg (which occurs in Vol. 9) as well as Rossweiss (who appears in Vol 7). This leads me to believe they're going to end up doing a 2-cour season potentially covering from Vol 5 to Vol 10 (more or less skipping 8 since it was side stories) for a total of 5 Volumes.

Merely speculation, but it seems to make the most sense given how they handled the previous seasons.

As a huge fan of the Light Novels[read till volume 18,kinda lost track, will reread] I am totally stoked for this season, as volume 5 and 6 are very entertaining, still waiting for the one where Issei's dragon armor get's four different badass forms.
Also we now have the lovely Rosweisse-san! The cheapskate teacher!

To clear up concerns about certain parts of the PV:



So it's most likely going to be covering only volumes 5-6. Although, the serious atmosphere between Ise and Rias in the PV & visual makes me wonder if they're going to put greater emphasis on volume 10's events a little earlier in the anime.

No it's just that it's a personal thing, back when Season 1 was airing maybe I was patient enough to tolerate all of the ecchi and depthless characters, now I do not. It's also overdone, I may add, just how I personally feel, but good ecchi to me is one that will do it in moderation, this to me, is a show that gives the ecchi genre a bad name.

I don't mean to bring down the hype here, but I'm just not going to watch it, is it my loss? Anime isn't my life, so no.

Soooooo...coming back to this thread....

I heard a rumor or 2 that this season is supposedly going to break the trend of the first 2 seasons, and be a 24 episode season.

Now, what I heard were only rumors. Most likely just dipshits running their mouths. I couldn't find any source to confirm or deny it.

BUT, there's the chance that someone on here heard something. Can anyone confirm or deny this rumor?

There is no confirmation yet, whether it will be one cour or two cours. So at this point it's just a wild rumor.

Because that's when they finally do it.

As if. Issei would need balls for that.

Out of all the shitty LN adaptions out there this is one of the better ones. And since it's been almost three years since I read the novels, it will be like experiencing all of the stuff for the first time.

Well, I somewhat remember reading somewhere that season 2 kind of rushed things a bit, which is why I asked. Personally, I liked season 2 more than season 1. Although, I would have loved to see the full version of the IsseixRias kiss lol.

I watched alot of ecchi shows years back with no problems, but now, it definitely is much harder to watch certain types of ecchi shows, maybe because I'm older now .......idk, but imo, I find it to be the opposite of how you feel about this show. To me, even though the ecchi in this is really hardcore ( w/o actually going into fullblown sex) , it doesn't bother me at all because of everything else that the show does really well too, and I find this show to be one of the best series in the ecchi genre that has a large focus on the ecchi while not losing everything else.

You aren't hearing the fans. You're hearing those who only know the anime and not the novels >_> Also way to focus only on the least flattering comments that say nothing really of the full content of the series instead of the long posts from those who actually know the source material. If you don't want to get into the series don't make excuses how the fans or the rumors of the horndogs who come only for the fanservice are chasing you away.

I just took comments on the last page, I didn't need to look for them or choose them at all. Now, this may just have been bad luck that I stumbled on this thread right with those comments. You have to admit that this is still not really engaging, especially since that's not the first time I see that kind of comments at all.
And novels? i buy the novels I read. In no way am I going to spend money to something that has more chances to not please me than the contrary. And you would do the same as me in my situation, I'm sure of it.
Am I wrong in saying that this series has heavy fanservice and that a lot of people like it for this? I don't think so. Hence, I don't think this series is for me. Am I wrong in saying this? maybe. Is there enough chances for me being wrong to warrant me spending money to verify if I'm wrong or not? Don't think so. Again, you probably read LN without paying anything. If you were to pay, you would consider things differently and would probably be far more prone to stay away from any series that doesn't seem to be your thing.
Hence, I'll say it again. "The more I hear about this series , the more I want to avoid it."

The point is you are not hearing about the series. You're hearing a bunch of perverted horndogs who aren't interested in looking beyond the fanservice. Whereas myself and other novel readers know full well that there's more than just fanservice and that things will only get more serious as the series progresses. Hell the background for everyone in the gremory group is quite heavy and tormented. But no you just take the easy way out and draw your conclusion from that single page.

What makes DxD really worthwhile is the slapstick and self-aware over-the-top humor that is always present. The actual plot follows a very classic shounen plot (yes there is a shounen plot) and introduces a shit tons of characters and mythology every arc. Neither of these elements alone would be sufficient to make the series good but the combination of all of the above + fanservice makes this series more entertaining than it should have been. This proves there are shitty fanservice-oriented series and superior fanservice-oriented series. Not all fanservice-oriented series can be put in the same bin just because it has fanservice, a common mistake people often make.


Gary29 said:
Regarding the Trinity Seven-DxD debate:

DxD doesn't just throw fanservice out there for the sake of fanservice. Most of the time, the ecchi has a legitimate use in the plot somehow (take Dress Break for example - it's still being used to this day to defeat enemies). Several more examples of this are spoiler-area, so I'll tag it just to prove my point:



The thing with DxD is that the ecchi is actually really deeply intertwined with the plot (as hard as that may be for some people to believe), to the extent that it makes it magnificently serious yet hilarious at times as well. I'd also go so far as to say that the harem aspect of DxD is far superior to any other ecchi/harem series (although this ultimately boils down to personal preference for everyone), where the emotional bonds are extremely deep and everyone really does care deeply about one another, compared to TLR where the bonds aren't as strong or Trinity Seven where, from what I've heard, Arata doesn't care as much about the girls as a whole. MC and story-wise, nothing even needs to be said for those who've read DxD's LNs. And the only reason I'm mentioning the source material is because the anime hasn't caught up yet to a lot of what I'm mentioning here, so anime-only viewers might be thinking "what the fuck is this guy talking about?".

I can't say much about Trinity Seven, but from what I've seen so far, the harem aspect isn't anywhere near as good as DxD's. Even from an anime-only perspective, it's a bit fast how the girls just fall for him. What's the reasoning behind it?

That's not what I'm telling you. I'm not drawing any conclusions. I don't buy titles without being convinced that I have a high chance of liking it. I've been quite disappointed a few times even like this, so let's not even talk about buying a series which I'm currently concluding of having more than 50% chances of not pleasing. See, like I said, I'm not drawing any conclusion, and that's precisely why I'm avoiding this series. Because there's no way that your comments can erase their comments. It can counterbalance them, but not erase them that easily. If there's like 50/50, that's half a chance it doesn't please me. Even without drawing conclusions, avoiding buying them is obvious.

Besides, look at my "about me" section. Can you have any argument of this series being better than any title of the top half ( 1 to 15, so everything outside of the spoiler tag) LN I read? I'm only buying titles that have a good chance of ranking among those. That way, even if they're disappointing, they'll still mainly ends up as average or a bit above average in my ratings, so I have very few chances of actually regretting buying them.
If you can't see DxD as better than even one of those titles, then that means that I'm correct in avoiding that titles, as it's simply too much of a risk.

Just wanted to point something out about the types of comments you tend to see more often in regards to shows that contain sexual fanservice themes (especially in a site like MAL or well, anywhere actually).

You will always see alot more comments just talking about the sexual aspects of a show, and only a few posts that talk about everything else. I'm sure this basically applies to nearly everything in the world, especially on the internet. ( Ofc, there are forums, sites, etc that are exceptions, but MAL definitely isn't one of them)

So, yah, its alright if you know that heavy fanservice isn't for you, but if you're not 100% sure that you won't like a series, then I'd suggest you atleast listen to a few fans that can talk about more than just the fanservice aspects of the series, I mean its the least you could do.
