High School DxD: Anyone else who dislikes Asia?

Kaaviken said:


Well I appreciate your answer and opinions. I will certainly put everything you have said into consideration. But for now, lets just agree to disagree on some points though it seems like you have a better understanding of whats going on than I have (considering that you have read the manga, and that you like the anime so much^^)

Technically it was originally a LN (light novel) not manga.

We all can't like the same thing. So whether someone likes or dislikes her, I accept their choice either way. As for my opinion on Asia, I'm okay with her (don't dislike her) and the main group of girls because of how far I read and watch Highschool Dxd. Technically I don't dislike any girls as long as there is good development with each (with it being a harem series).

If this was more of a ONE girl choosing series (like Nisekoi, Love Hina, School Rumble), that's when I would have a girl to dislike (although there can be exceptions depending how story plays).

I agree I can't stand her, she is a waste of space to me replace her with that phoenix as she can create healing medicine.

I just don't care for her and that childhood friend turned angel they are the 2 girls I just don't like on the show but Asia is the worst of the lot.

And then to you Thyriad-oPPailov, im sure ur not 15 years old (just made my point come out better), and you are probably right about some stuff, but I cant find it in my heart to like Asia. I dont like weak, fragile women who is most of the time just in the way, but maybe you do and that I respect. This is just one opinion against another. Btw I dont think anyone knows the "love game" until they are truly in love with someone, which rias, akeno, asia nor anyone else has been.

Asia knows absolutely nothing about how to get close to someone aside from what Kiryu tells her, and like others said, she was a nun and a Holy Maiden before. None of the other girls were sheltered away from the concept of relationship except for Xenovia and she doesn't know the true meaning behind her actions.

And her "being only in the way" would mean that she brings absolutely nothing to Ise's life. She does. She's so important to him that he'd very likely lose the will to live if she died for real. He'd rather continue like a virgin forever than not having her by his side while being able to have sex with every hot chick in the world.

Thyriad-oPPailov said:
Asia is starting to get even bigger role than others in last episodes :D



Maybe you got me wrong. It is not like I love Asia, but I defend her because there are no characters in DxD that should be hated and people in this topic just hate her without much reason. I don't like "weak, fragile women who is most of the time just in the way" also, but Asia really is not that bad if compared to other anime characters who are similar. That said, Asia never made me angry like some other characters from other anime/manga.
I for example often hate loli characters, but I don't hate Koneko because she is also made very good in DxD.

There is strange number of members with less than 50 posts on MAL that attack Asia/so called LN purist and make the fight go on... it is strange sometimes I even see people with 1-5 posts... is this some campaign with multiaccounts?



Whoa it is maybe first bigger thing that I can agree with AverageFanboy

Btw you dont seem to have a very wide knowledge about anime so theres no wonder one of the only animes you have watched is your most liked one, and I think its easier to like something in an manga because you dont have to listen to bad music or bad voice acting etc.

Thyriad-oPPailov said:


Music and VA are very good in DxD so idk what you are talking about?
I watched many anime/manga before I joined this website, I added few old one as 'dropped' as I don't remember how many episodes I watched and what exact title it was, for example I watched many Dragoon Ball but didn't add them all. I joined this website not so long ago and after I watched DxD.
And about multi accounts I wasn't talking about you only. Look in other topic like "High School DxD BorN Episode Discussion".

She's a different type of character. She's the pure and innocent devil that still prays to God even though she's technically an enemy. The only issue I see is the excessive neediness towards issei. Beyond that I like her as a character.
Btw she's probably gonna be around for a while seeing how she was one of the first people issei really bonded with and when he leaves Rias' house to make his own she will probably go with him. So get used to her.

Ryoka767 said:
She is stupid and annoying and for some reason always wants to get in the way of Issei and Rias. And she is just OH MY GOD! I hate her.

Kuro_Yuuki said:


Were we watching the same show?

Ignoring the fact that harem anime in general usually have the girls getting in each others way in order to gain a lead on the other girls, I can't recall any instances where Asia has done this. At least not intentionally.

I can understand not liking Asia's character for whatever reason, but lets not pretend that she doesn't play a very important role in this show. Whether it be as a mere plot device or a fully fleshed out character, no one can deny that she serves an important role in not only the story, but also contributes greatly to the protagonist development as well. To say that she's "useless", of all things, is ridiculous.

RIAS_ISSEI_AKENO said:
I reaaly hate her because of her voice jealous of akeno and rias and a little flirter no offense i wish could die once again no offense or the guy who liked should have just got her and when rias and akeno fight for issei she gets so jealous and says uhmm no fair u two i just like issei x rias or issei x akeno who agrees with me huh?And vali should not just found her

haydnwright said:
I dislike because she is arguably the biggest whiner ever in anime, constantly crying and crying and crying and crying and "ISSEI-SAN ISSEI-SAN ISSEI-SAN ISSEI-SAN ISSEI-SAN ISSEI-SAN ISSEI-SAN ISSEI-SAN" I would call her a Parrot but thats an insult to Parrots.

SympathyRS said:
Thats completely true xD, I really find her quite annoying at times and she isn't exactly good looking.

DarklordVor said:
Hmm... I don't really hate her, I just dislike her but not to the point of hate.

Wittyname said:
Honestly, it's more or less that she falls into the very rules that every other character in the show has managed to break, one thing that has always entertained me about this show is every character is given a personality that tends to make them worth more than just ecchi. Hell, Issei, Azazel and Kiba are just as entertaining as most members of the harem.
Meanwhile, Asia is that 'I'm innocent' character that could be found in any other harem anime. She has her moments, but she lacks the amounts of personality all the other characters have.
