| Meh episode. Don't have anything good to say about it. :/ |
 |
| Rias in balance braker form?? Damnit what the hell is going to happen in the last ep! The PV does not lied issei is fighting rias afterall lol & hope for season 4! |
 |
| While i see that a bunch of things were eithier rushed or changed alltogether, as an anime i still thought this was another good episode 1 episode left :/ |
| Meh AO final episodes to an otherwise good, even if somewhat rushed, season. Japan be smoking da good stuff. |
seeusmile said: it was somewhat okey... but yeah found this really confusing :3. Like... was this suppose to be in the story? or just a random OVA? Not much of a general novel reader.. i just get my mates who read them to summarize for me, or if the manga was ahead of it i'd be reading that. This was not supposed to be in the story and the bits that were happened many volumes ahead of time and out of their logical place |
| damn, nice episode, too bad next week its over, and was it just me or did isseis face look really derpy...? |
| Red Dragon Empress? Yes |
| Man, I just couldn't help but kept laughing at this episode. Too much pent-up drama and what not. It's like everything is devised to go smoothly as much as you want for convenient of the plot with barring any casualties lol. Having problem with guidance? No problem! Governor general is there to back you up with his life and, and would even give you a departing gift! :D Want to reach your destination? No problem! Enemy-cum your overpowered, who can defeat you anytime, anywhere rival partner is already present there to help you through every thick and thin :D Are you hopeless even after reaching your destination? No problem! Laws of physics don't apply there and sheer will power of your heart will make you keep afloat :D Want to save your friend/lover? No problem! Just keep blabbering out her name and heart swaying sentiments and probably exchange a fist or two to win over her :D And last, but not least, don't forget to keep calling out your friend's name loudly over and over even in the midst of battle and after the happy ending :D Seriously, this season is such a disappointment. Season 1 and 2 had their charms but not this one! They are just trying too much to portray the sentiments and wrapping up the major events like they mean nothing. Even I can tell they are rushing it too much. |

I wasn't replying to you. and none of this crap happened in the novels so this is all anime original bullshit oh ok then, my bad... yeah i know its original anime concept, I did mention that i red some spoilers on the wikia...(LN) |

I know, ie. no Shiro monologues=The reason why he's a good character isn't there. I understand his character perfectly and never read the VN (only trying to read HF) Ishibumi himself made these changes and yet people don't even give him a chance. Who are we to decide if the author's right or wrong? He has a plan and I'll trust in it Even if it ends up failing you won't admit. Optimism without any evidence to support it is nothing but Naivety and wishful thinking |
| I'm keeping some faith but damn this season was so RUSHED. I really loved Season 1/2 but this fell way short..I'm still hoping for a season 4 but please get more then a 12 ep season, or go back to covering only 2 volumes. |
| I haven't read the light novels up to this point, having only read the first novel so far. as an anime only viewer who doesn't know what should actually be happening, this was shit. It makes no logical sense and as somebody else in this thread said, felt like a bad fanfiction. anime original content is not bad, I love the current Unlimited Blade Works anime which is full of original scenes, those scenes however are up to par with the quality of the rest of the series. As of the latest two episodes of DxD, the quality of writing has dropped dramatically, yet again this is from the point of view of someone who has not read what happens in the novels, thus I am not biased towards the novels at all. Rias using balance breaker, what? are you serious, there wasn't even a reason for that it's just there for no reason at all. terrible episode. |
| I don't really remember Rias taking that form in the LN. It doesn't matter to me how much it change from the original. So far its not that bad. Well after this I'll be reading the light novels. |
AverageFanboy said: The Ise doppelganger was made by using a fragment of Ise's armor, it was shown in EP 10. After he took her to the Dimensional Gap it most likely dispelled and the fragment was used to do that. No I perfectly understand the reason for it being possible, I'm saying there was no reason for brainwashed Rias to use that power she was wrecking them anyways. |
| Although I haven't read the LN at all I can see people getting mad about how they completely twisted the story and It looks to me like they rushed the episode. Also I have a question. Since they are not following the story properly does that mean that this is the last season or will there be more? |
 |
| Nope not touching on this one. The last ep better be something special! |

No, they are just adding stuff, the things they changed earlier don't really affect later events. A bigger load of bullshit was never spoken |
SovereignSky said: AverageFanboy said: LOL They aren't solving the whole trauma so I really don't see how they destroyed anything. Exactly, unless Issei saves Rias, confesses the trauma, it's resolved instantly etc in next episode. They haven't screwed up anything.... From my prediction they gonna screw up the BD sales because of these shitty original ending. and I start to wonder why people keep saying shit like "It's Ishibumi himself that rearrange the event and add original scene" because from what I see from this: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=16620 I don't see Ishibumi name in scenario or storyboard section so why did people keep saying that Ishibumi is in charge of these horrendous change? |

| The lack of ecchi in this season hurts me :( |
 |
| ^ Atleast there have been some awesome moments, It is my favorite season :3 |

AverageFanboy said: The BD specials (6 in total, 3-5 minutes long each) will have some fanservice galore, going by the titles, one will have some Rias VS Akeno goodness, another will be with the "Church Trio" (Asia, Xenovia and Irina), one will have a really nice Koneko using senjutsu scene from the LN, and even Grayfia will get a special for herself. I couldn't really think of what the other 2 are about by the titles alone. Gonna have to wait and see those. According to Ishibumi, they'll be fanservice scenes that didn't appear in BorN, like the Oppai Sandwich and some stuff taken from Short Stories (I think this refers to the Church Trio and the Grayfia ones) Thanks, can't wait! :) |

| Not sure man. Not sure at all. Just watched Ep 11 (thanks to ultra late FFF subs and Hiryuu just released the episode). In a way I think I'd prefer the original source of the LN. Yet, the changes aren't that bad - only Ep 11 had too less time. If 13 episodes long, it might have work (man - I hate when Anime is 12/13 episodes long and need more time to explain - why not making it more and be it? Money - a shit), it might have been a good way. But like this... Sure, the author of the LN has an idea. He has maybe a plan (lets hope he has one). Maybe he is also sick of the Anime? We don't know yet. Fact is, the changes were planned early on (you could see some of the trailer and the poster of Rias and Issei diestance poster). Now were those changes executed well? Wait for the last episode. Maybe they announce a new season after it? Most likely not. Where the changes needed? In my opinion not. The LN might have been not this 'dramatic' this time, but you had fighting, some romance and some ecchi here and there. A good mix. And sadly I kinda started to feel like this is the last DxD Anime we get to see. As if they kinda want to end it. Sadly. Wishing for more - but this time actual LN to Anime story. We'll see... |
| Issei all you need to do is FREAKING CALL RIAS BY HER NAME INSTEAD OF PRESIDENT!!!!! FUUUUUU------------ |
