I don't understand why they don't bring Asia with them. I mean come on, you're going to battle a God that is a threat to the underworld and you don't bring your healer? What kind of people go to a battle without healer? Even most games need at least one healer in every battle.

Koneko's character development seems to be rushed. She already takes a liking to Issei only from one event with Kuroka. In season 1 she keeps on complaining on how Issei is perverted, yet the event with Kuroka changed that, Issei even touched Rias' nipples in front of Koneko. Shouldn't she act more different than she should be now?

For LN readers, I think you should check the author's (Ichiei Ishibumi) blog to know what's really going on.. If what the translated by google is true, he said the anime will cover 5,6 and 7 volume with Koneko, Asia and Rias getting spotlight for this season.. he also said that many people unsatisfied with Issei's denseness in previous season and it is decided to incorporate some of vol. 10 contents (just a little bit of it) to mash in within this season.. he didn't particularly say about battle with sona so we can safely assume this part has been cut until it have been proven otherwise
I cannot bring myself to rate anime that I have completed below 5. Well, it just because I have use up my precious time to watch it. so, the worse you will get from me is 5 (changes may apply)

he's still really WAY WAY WAY WAY too far from reaching his compatriot Vali in terms of strength and how much time he can stay in his suit (it consumes a large amount of stamina) oh and with he as he is now, he can only take a little bit of Ddraig's power because human generally has a very very low base stats, even he is a devil now, it only just increase by a little.. Btw, from what I know (correct me if I'm wrong), Loki is a GOD, same title as Odin, so he's lame yeah but with a very sound reason..

Edit: it is mention before I think, Fenrir's bite can even kill God, and it is suppose to be taken literally..

Pretty good episode on the whole. As long as plot events aren't voided, just reshuffled, I'm ok.
Glad to see in the episode preview we touch on Akeno a bit more, this episode seemingly resolved her issues before we could really touch on them.

I'm finding it really difficult to enjoy this season of DxD.

It was a bad idea to reshuffle so much content from future volumes into Volume 5. I'm worried about the continuity of the story going forwards as I feel that the reshuffle has opened up a whole lot of potential plotholes which the original LN never had.

In addition, the amount of rushed "character development" is really getting to me. In one episode we've had multiple reveals of skills/abilities/powerups which were done much more gracefully in the LNs. I'm worried that they've literally taken out a lot of the fun surprises from future episodes.

Though I understand they're trying to fit 3 LN volumes into a single 12-13 episode anime season, I'm feeling completely overloaded by what's going on.

That said, hopefully everything goes smoothly and all my worries are proven wrong with the rest of the season.

A pretty good episode this time around. Almost every char from the anime is fighting vs Loki.
Also these were some nasty strings from the other pervy guy(Sona's pawn, forgot his name).
Also Issei's "death" was totally unexpected for me it was kinda well done and oh my the rage of the harem incoming the next episode all at Loki. Behold! Also that cliffhanger Q_Q. Gotta wait till next week

As a novel reader, the rearranged events and subtle changes was quite likable. I'm a bit more concerned on how they seemingly "nerfed" Loki and Fenrir (+ his sons). Fenrir was in the top 10 strongest beings, it's hard to believe that Yuuto and Xenovia could keep him bussy let alone actually hurt him. In the novel this battle required assistence from Tannin, Azazel, Baraqiel and the Vali team. Although the latter is showing up next episode it still is a big downplay on Loki's and Fenrir's strenght.

What's next? Vali, Issei bitchslapping the Great Red?

That said the fact that they gave Sona's peerage some extra screentime was refreshing but i wonder if it was out of pity.

That's my problem. I'm fine with them rearranging events but I hate it when there's no need to. I don't remember Issei getting nearly killed like that or Rias going all super saiyan. I also didn't like how Akeno accepted her power because that ruins the scene that happened rating game. Next weeks fight is going to be extremely rushed. It doesn't help that they made Loki and Fenrir look like fodder even though his fangs can kill a god.

I'm not sure. Loki was supposed to have fled already. In this episode he summoned Fenrir's sons and many Midgardsormr clones which didn't happen until the final battle so that makes me think that the next episode will be the final fight.

I think Arthur appearance will make him retreat.

BTW next episode title is "Last day of Summer Vacation!" and episode 6 title is "Second Semester, Starts!".

plus they already summoned Mjolnir (small nit pick, but was it said in the anime that it was supposed to be a copy? I gues they either forgot or thought lets use the orginal)

Fenrir indeed got fodderized but if anything they made Loki do more than he did in the LN's. Also Fenrir gravely injuring Issei does happen in their first fight (which this is). The author put on his blog that they're doing this, the rest of volume 5, all of 6 and then ending with the final part of 7.

What a kickass episode I'd have to say. Rosseweisse is so hot I can't even. Loki is pretty scary with his Ragnarok stuff. . . Glad to see Koneko embrace her powers same goes for Akeno. But the Issei x Rias moment gave me goosebumps, ya. Rias is so pissed.

Did he really died..? Or just passed out? In the end, these were massive wound. But if he died, with the Phoenix Tears, I'd guess you can bring someone back to life if it hasn't been too long that he's dead.

Loki is pretty darn stupid. Don't mess with a harem full of super powerful girls.

Yeeeeesss, Koneko-neko form.... Hnnnnngg ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Not sure how to feel about the re-arrangement of events. Sure we get some nice action thrown to us earlier but the development of the characters prior to the action is reduced or worse, essentially gone.

I have nothing against the power-ups (Angel Irina, Nekomata Koneko, Half-Fallen Angel Akeno) but it just felt too sudden. In the LN, there was significant build-up and development that leads to those power-ups.

I also don't like how they made Loki weaker. Iirc, Issei's team, Vali's team, and other big shots had to cooperate to at least put up a fight against Fenrir. Here, they're not even struggling with just the ten of them.

But eh, Ishibumi-sensei's decision. I'll just see how the story comes around and how the timeline works out.
