Review of High School DxD

OK, all jokes aside. This anime has a good plot. While watching this I dared to look up the power scales in this universe. Aside from the "plot", each character is well-written but not to great. The main character can get perlitic at times but that is what some people's reasons why they dropped this show. For me, I loved how eager the MC wants to defeat the white dragon, his so long rival so to speak, and how he wants to be the harem king. He learns from his mistakes from past tasks then utilizes them to stand toe to toe with his rival. I'lladmit the characters do look hot but this show made me feel like there aren't just some plot devices just to make the show more appealing. Each character in the show is well-made and had proper screen time. All the character dynamics and how they communicate with each other is like a family. Each character cares for one another like when Koneko was almost turned into a villain by her big sister.

This is a good example of how to make an ecchi show, not to over the top where the "ecchiness" steals the whole show and makes the whole story bland and soulless. Other ecchi animes make the ecchiness the forefront of the show making the entire experience as just another henti or junk food por*.

Overall this is one of my favorite ecchi shows. I'm still sad that they decided to switch the studio for the 4th season. In conclusion, watch Highschool DxD, it has great fights, loveable characters, and a bopping opening.
