| That was a cool fight between two awesome guys, they need to face again ASAP. Loving both plot and plot as usual. |
 |
| I thought the new art style would be very hard to get used to (and while I still am getting used to it a bit) I've adapted to it, and I can say this first episode was pretty alright. |
 |
| Akeno seems even lewder now with new animation, what a great start wew. Tfw no Koneko to heal you. Issei oggling Venelana was lol Sairaorg seems like a really cool guy, crazy strong too. Akeno during the intermission ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Now that you mention...it's pretty weird that he rarely calls Rias by her name and he sleeps with her naked.. The ending was perfect, dat Xenovia booty and all those oppai!! |
 |
| I never was an Akeno fan, but at least I found her to be sexy previously. With this new art style she no longer have that adult older sister charm, the same goes for Rias. Other characters look passable but still prefer the old looks. Whether this new art style look closer to the LN illustrations doesn't matter one bit. If the characters don't look as charming as before, than it is bad. The fight's animation was decent, at least. Sairaorg seems like a cool opponent for Issei. |
| This is it!! Ara~araa~~ |
 兵家 "Green how I want you green. Green wind. Green branches." |
| Heh I love how after taking all those punches, Issei was dropped to his knees from the shame of having his power said out loud. Usually he owns it wholeheartedly, I guess you could say his embarrassment kinda reflects the respect he has for Sairaorg. |
 |
| Whew, great to see this back. I honestly love the new artstyle. For a first episode, it was pretty good. Looking forward to what this new season will bring. |
  |
| Episode felt kinda rushed. Like many jumps in-between to fit alot of stuff in one episode. Did the Ep 0 took away a episode? Also the nipple looking way off (beside all the meh character change). |
| Great episode. I loved every second of seeing Issei and the gang back. The light bout that Issei had looked way better than all the fights from Born as well imo. Lol'd so hard at Akeno and others trying to get a piece of Issei before he goes on his school trip to Kyoto. Feels awesome to have this series back and im totally looking forward to the next episode. |

take it back was cool with the new art but fully on board with the new studio change now glad i'm back to liking DXD ,but it's been ages since we don't get a ton of battle ecchi's now a days i forget how lewd they can get lol the girls look so good and the fights look great for this shows standards gonna just pretend born doesn't exist now on |

| And yet again he sleeping with his clothes on now wonder he can get any where |
 |
| I found the animation was a lot better than in episode zero. Don't know why episode zero was half ass compared to ep 1. |
TheOddFox said: I found the animation was a lot better than in episode zero. Don't know why episode zero was half ass compared to ep 1. Because it was a retcon episode meant only to put thing back on track so the next two arcs can happen as they should |
| Aww isn't Rias lovely? :3 A very good starting episode! The sparring with Sairaorg was excellent and he is one admirable rival. Even after hearing Issei's secret of his strength (which is indeed embarrassing), he still respects him and so does our Harem King xD That Rating Game is going to be epic! Now... What kind of adversities will our Harem King have to face in that school trip? :P |
THANKS SENPIEX  |
matiasotaku said: Its was okay, I like it,and yeah they changed their character design but at least is fun to watch. I really miss the design of akeno and Rias, although the design of the Rias 's brother is very cute ..... oh shit. Maybe what disappoints me the most is the ecchi that they have put back again. Ecchi was always there. It was BorN that fucked things up in that regard |
ROFL! This is mentioned BorN special episode 3. I laughed way too hard when I saw this.  Now THIS is DxD. 5/5 100% agree. Score lowered to 4.9/5 |

| The best ecchi/harem series in recent anime history returns with a PROPER adaptation |
| Don't believe the hype. |
| I swear I thought I was watching something from Pink Pineapple at first lol nothing too fancy in this ep I guess, the fight too, not really an epic fight but yeah, still passable as fight scene I guess. in all, this one is a pretty peacful first ep, I still enjoyed it tho.. And god that Akeno at the start, ngggghhh, I can't, I just can't. Koneko might be cute, but Akeno is on different level... glorious ED animation... finally something on par with the S1 ED ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) |
 |
| tbh, I already forgot what's last season plot/about xd well it's not like I'm here for the story to begin with.. |

Don't know why episode zero was half ass compared to ep 1. i didnt consider eps 0 was half-ass (for me eps 0 is Overwrite Story from Previous Studio) if me as production staff, eps 0 something like test product before release wait and see what audience response positive and negative response will be accommodate and try to fix it Ahh okay, seems quite reasonable then. |
| I'm actually getting used with the new style but still miss the old one, no can do let's stop complaining, the fight was pretty good tbh, let's hope we can get a good season. |
| More OPPAI! shame the one that I watched is fron [hs] subs, better rewatch it from [SubDESU] subs but the only censored part of ep 1 is a very short scene on bed... 5/5. |

Just watch a remux version. Aka HS subs from a uncen video source. Someone is doing that. SubDESU subs are beyond awful. |

Only in the dub does he call her rias which is a stupid decision on the dubbing team Never saw the dub but you're prolly right, he mostly calls her "Buchou", though I think I might have heard "Rias Buchou" a few times, but yea never "Rias". |

| I’m actually starting to like the new art style more and more. Sairaorg is such an awesome character so far! I really hope that he doesn’t suddenly become evil. |

| if we are supposed to forget the last few episode of Born, then how do they explain how Rossweisse joined them? was that the only thing that was canon in the last series ending? |
komic said: if we are supposed to forget the last few episode of Born, then how do they explain how Rossweisse joined them? was that the only thing that was canon in the last series ending? Rosseweisse joined them after the fight with Loki when Odin abandoned her |

Rosseweisse joined them after the fight with Loki when Odin abandoned her no. the Born she became a teacher in their school. She didn't join the family until the last episode of Born. |
| Awesome first episode! I enjoyed the fight between Issei and Sairaorg. Also at the end of the episode where Rias kisses Issei. Can't wait to see what happens in the next episode, especially on the school trip! |
komic said: no. the Born she became a teacher in their school. She didn't join the family until the last episode of Born. I was talking about the novel >_> |
| This art is starting to grow on me. But i still need to see more oppai to be sure. It's kinda funny that Rias is making such a deal about Ise fucking off for 2 days to Kyoto, when last season, he was gone for what, weeks, while he was training with Tannin, and she didn't even seem to care that he was gone. |
| Has anyone else noticed the massive growth in Rias' Mother bust? |
| After the 0 episode and this one I don't care about the art drop in the new season. I'm too busy enjoying my favorite characters from the novel coming to life - Sairaorg FTW! You made my day :D Mod Edit: Modified quote of edited post. |

| That fight between Issei and Sairaorg was pretty great. I seriously forgot how great this series was since its been 3-4 years since the last season. Hope it continues to be great. |
