This arc is significant because it gives us our only real character development for the season.
While it initially appears the two renegade angels are acting on their own to collect the pieces, it become apparent that the pieces of the sword are for a much larger game. Little do they realize is that two fallen angels have already been dispatched to retrieve the pieces at any cost. The occult club hears of Excalibur's existence and realize they must seek them out before anyone else can get their hands on it. The first six episodes of New focus on the group attempting to collect the pieces of Excalibur, a holy sword that can rid the devils of existence. The second season instead of focusing on one overarching storyline while balancing the characters and their relationships, decides to forego that and have two half season storylines that doesn't give you much of a break. Everything seems to be looking up for our lecherous hero, Issei, as his harem is growing larger and larger, and the women in it are growing more affectionate for his odd charm by the day, most notably Rias. Picking up directly where season 1 left off, the Occult research club are treating themselves to a much deserved rest after putting an end to the first season's big bad, Riser. Over the course of the first season, we watched as Issei and Rias's relationship grew (while Issei collected more women for his harem that is) and battled fallen angels together. Rias reveals to Issei her true identity as a devil, their war against the fallen angels and tells him that as a result of his death at the hands of Yuma, she has reincarnated him as a devil, becoming his new master in the process. Issei wakes up the next morning, believing that the events that occurred the night prior were all just a dream, though he is taken aback when he notices a naked Rias in his room.
Thankfully Rias Gremory (voiced by Jamie Marchi), a busty third year student that every guy wants and every girl wants to be, steps in and revives Issei, only for another fallen angel to enter the fray and knock him out cold. After their seemingly enjoyable date, Yuma brings Issei to a local park and sadly/unfortunately reveals herself as a fallen angel and asks him to die for her, attempting to kill him. After a typical day of doing nothing but ogling women, Issei is suddenly asked out on a date by a fellow classmate named Yuma Amano. One of the students, Issei Hyodo (voiced by Scott Freeman), is a lecherous second year student who lives a peaceful life, dreaming to one day become the harem king. Unknown to normal humans, angels, fallen angels and devils comprise part of the student population.
#HIGH SCHOOL DXD NEW CLEAN ED 2 NO SUBS SERIES#
the series revolves around Kuoh Academy, a former all girls school that has recently turned co-ed. In case you don't know the background of the DxD franhise, I'll fill you in. If you're not a fan of animated nudity and feel it ruins shows, then turn away now! If you were a fan of the first season, then let's see how DXD: New stacks up, shall we? It has a certain charm about it with it's fun characters, over the top humor, beautiful animation and exciting storylines. Though for some reason, I find myself drawn in by the allure of the High School DxD franchise.
If anyone reading this has read any of my past harem reviews, then you'd know I'm not typically a fan of the genre.
