Kind of disappointed that in the end all that Rias rage resulted to nothing. I was hoping to see a more badass mode of her kicking more ass.
She's suppose to be the best and the other be like her soldiers or something but in the end always the other do most of the things and especially Issei so i hoped to see her show some real power.

Did our main guy got a power of revealing your inner feelings while touching boobs now? Because that is how it seemed when he touched Akeno. Or does that has anything to do with that curse Loki threw at the end? Btw. Damn! she's like a complete clone of her mother. And some said Rias mother was the same.

Loving Xenovia's homework shirt. So hot.

Good episode. We finally have some light shed on Akeno's past.

With Issei's mouth wide open like that, that should've been an open mouth tongue kiss instead of a peck. But still, it was nice.

Great episode. It was nice to get an Akeno centric episode. She is so damn hot with her hair down. The kiss scene caught me off guard. Akeno is too sly. I think she takes the spot for best girl spot after this episode.

No OP this episode, but it sucks anyway though...
Your generic runaway-from-evasdroppers-and-then-ends-up-in-a-bunch-of-love-hotel-chain-bldgs scene.
At least Akeno stealed a kiss from Issei.

This episode really focused on Akeno and I loved it. We found out about Akeno's past and why she resents her father so much. Akeno is definitely one of the best girls in this anime (if not the best). xD She's so cute, hot and sexy. Damn, Issei's one lucky guy. xD

enjoying the season so far. the akeno date was lovely. and that Rossweise girl is just yummy. i will say that this episode though felt.....rushed. it seems like it opened up plot points that should have taken longer ot resolve.. nice to see kiba startin to get some in the ship department. hong Loki comes back this whole bit ith Issei wielding mjolnir seemed too convenient and the tears completely ruined the whole scene for me i was really looking forward to seeing Rias' rage and it just awefuly sudden the way she was calm again. she could at least have still been shaken by the ordeal. the Akeno X Issei moments were a the highlight for me. love dat akeno. the whole conflict with her and her dat felt way too short, so short that it didnt give me a chance to get into it. i do wanna see more Akeno Issei scenes. i like them about as much as i like the Rias X issei scenes.

girls i wanna see more of
Akeno. OF COURSE
Xenovia. Looking forward to her getting focus
Rossweise. Def looking forward to getting more of her, i feel she may be a ways off considering she's brand new and they still have other girls to cover.
Asia. Not really an Asia fan but i think the girl deserves something thrown her way.

I agree its good with humor and lots of great ecchi (soo many hot girls, Akeno especially) but the drama part has been bad since the beginning

Its just cringeworthy

During this episode, I was eating popcorn, drinking Samuel Adams, drinking Gevalia coffee, and drinking Tullamore Dew. Pure. Bliss.

Akeno is definitely my favorite girl now. I just can't resist anymore. :p

And that said, this series is finally getting me interested in the plot rather than just the boobs.

Also, I said "Pet her" out loud twice during the episode. Once when Koneko was laying in Issei's lap, and the second time when Akeno was crying on his shoulder.

Whoa this is shock for me. I had to pause every millisecond in scene when Phoenix Tears dropped :O I thought they got teleported lol

But it is great that even after I read LN I can be surprised!

I didn't like that Issei had no problem with holding Mjolnir without balance break form O.o
And I did not like the idea that Loki was not finished now... if he already got hit by Mjolnir...
Not to mention that Bilingual should be used during fight with Loki and there should be some god of oppai as I remember... If its not in anime then is Loki over? What is going on :/

Now volume 6?
I have no idea why plot change and they left Asia and Gasper out of first fight with Loki if Asia was not going to be kidnapped?! That would be better link to volume 6 if they want to change plot.
And if there was no khaos brigade why Sirzechs and rest of devil kings or high class devils didn't go to fight with Loki? This is all plot wrong... :/

If they didn't want to skip development of Akeno and Koneko then they shouldn't make them use their powers during first Loki fight...
The events with Akeno and Koneko were the reasons why the girls started to use their powers as I remember...
Why Akeno mother looks the same as Akeno :| and How can Baraqiel take bath with small Akeno :s And why there are no people on streets in scene of AkenoxIssei date?

I got mixed feelings about the changes... I still like some changes and I like every LN adapted scene till now, but this major change about Loki appearing so fast can ruin everything :/ Still this chapter got 5 out of 5: Loved it! (your vote) because Akeno and Phoenix Tears from Ravel.

You are wrong... DxD is all about emotions so how you wanna have zero drama?
DxD is best because it perfectly mixes many genres, but some people still don't understand that. That makes me sad.

I've beat him few times already in anime/manga/novel, but he is just a spam master and 90% of his posts are vague. At least once I saw him post during airing in japan AT-X... He sometimes don't even remember the plot or names.

Ravel's managed to save Issei in this one and Sairaog finishes off the Midgard Serpent.

Hooray, Akeno backstory! She was really cute in this episode. (^_^)
Dat kiss tho.

Hmm so they did tweaked the anime..



Not a fan of these little changes and the pacing of how it goes.. But that's just me.. Maybe I got attached to the LN 'cos of how great this series is..
Expecting it to be the same for the adaptation is too much I guess..

Nice to see the Akeno date take place, though i think it happens much later in the LN. A lot of events are shuffled around but i'm not complaining. It was also nice to see Akeno finally able to give Isse a smooch without being cock-blocked by Rias.

More Akeno is always a good thing, I find her to be one of the hottest of the harem, with Rias and Xenovia close behind. It was also nice to see Kiba and Saji having some positive moments with their apparent love interests as well.

I like this episode of High School DxD Born. If you talk about how the battle with Loki just ended, it just come to show you that Issei gotten much stronger in training. Akeno certainly takes her bond with Issei into the next level as she going out on the date with Issei at last. The funny part is that Issei easily notice Rias and the other girls were spying on them. Thus having them to make a break for it. Then there's her trouble past. I can't believe that Akeno plan to have sex with Issei in that bedroom. It's very noble that Issei turned her down for sex while she in the sad state. Her dad has been forgiven, became happy with Issei due to his goodness. And as for the result, she kissed him on the lips as she plan to make dinner for two of them. Way a go, Akeno. ^_^ Great job.

Wish that more could have happened between Akeno and Issei. But I know that this wasn't about that. It was about her backstory. Usually sweet anime characters are a huge turn off for me, but Akeno was different. I liked it. :)

Finally an episode with focus on Akeno. I didn't know that so much bad thing happen in her past.

I think everyone knew that Akeno is super hot, but she was so cute this episode. It's no wonder that she's one of my fav girls. Akeno = perfect girl <3

And that kiss, I'm so jealous for Issei >.<

OMG! A date with my #1 waifu, Akeno. She looked so beautiful in that outfit.

Damn. I wanted Issei to hit it, but as much as it pained him, I'm glad he resisted. When he does it with Akeno, it will be perfect.

Koneko now joins the Issei love train. Never thought I would see that.

That's a side I didn't think Akeno had. She is so darn cute that way though. And that ending tugged at the heartstrings.

Can't believe Akeno loses her ahoge with her hair down, 0/10 design.

Having the pervious arc finish in the first ~8 minutes of the episode was definitely an interesting decision. The pacing is really all over the goddamn place rn.

I hope it evens out a bit more, and honestly, without the high school setting, the last arc really lost a bit of the show's normal character. It kinda just threw a bunch of characters at you and didn't really elaborate. Even the Kokabiel arc, the worst before that last one, still had stakes beyond some "ragnarok" shit.

Akeno's arc was really touching for what it's worth. She's really come a long way from her days of only existing to say ara ara. It's a shame she had to share what's likely her only episode with the end of the previous arc because it felt insanely rushed.
