High School Dxd: Complete Series Collection [Blu-ray]

Otaku John here to review High School DXD the Series. Okay, as a well-experienced connoisseur of anime, manga, and light novels, going back from the 70's to modern day, I have read and watched just about every series out there at one time or another. I can honestly say that for the genre it covers, this is a great anime. First and foremost this is a fan-service comedy. It's low-brow, and not intended to be taken seriously, or to compete with dramatic classics like Akira or Ghost In The Shell. This is just a zany, funny, slapstick show meant for people to sit down and watch to escape the harsh realities of a mundane over-serious world. That being said, this is definitely for adults. Lots of nudity, language and more adult situations than you can count. But that's the whole point, isn't it? Too bad the High School DxD Light Novels aren't available in the U.S. currently. Because the plotline and story is actually quite good. Animation is 5-star, characters are excellent, voice actors are top-notch, and you can't help but binge-watch it as soon as you put it on. Many people don't like this series, because they think it's too low-brow. But if you're a guy, and you're honest with yourself, you can't help but accept the fact that just about every guy goes thru a phase where they're a lot like the main character Issei Hyoudo,( in their own minds, if nothing else). If you like light-hearted comedy, and love to laugh, then get this. You won't be disappointed. Again, its made for adults, not kids. Think of it like an 80's R-Rated comedy film, akin to Porky's or Revenge of the Nerds. It's not a Francis Ford Coppola masterpiece of directing excellence, but it sure as heck is A-1 Entertaining. I also highly recommend getting the High School DxD light novels, if you ever get the chance. They're a great read. Also, don't forget, there's two more seasons of DxD available right now too, and another in the works in Japan currently.

High School DXD is, without a doubt, one of most popular anime right now and for good reasons! The storyline, humor, action, animation, music and dialogue is all blended together; which is guaranteed to satisfy any nerd. I have heard a lot of criticism about this anime, which I'm sure you've all heard as well. Honestly, I don't know what these critics were expecting. This anime is about sexy demons killing fallen angels in the battle between good and evil. This is what we called "Entertainment." If you were looking for something different, like "What's the meaning of life?;" then you definitely should stay away from this anime. Regardless, this anime is a must-buy for all fans of anime, especially if you like anime such as Sekirei, Queen's Blade and Sora No Otoshimono. The action is great, the humor is hilarious, the characters all have some development, and there are even some heart-felt moments where you're motivated to do the same as the characters. The music is AWESOME and the extras making the purchase well worth it. Funimation did a great job dubbing this series. Personally, I like the subbed version better, only because I feel like I can take it more seriously than listening to some cheesy dialogue. Still, it's worth watching at least once. Now, High School DXD New (Second season) was released in Japan in October 2013. Knowing this, we probably won't be seeing an American release until the beginning of 2015. However, I know it will be worth the wait. Please support by purchasing this Blu-Ray/DVD combo, it's well worth it! Thanks for reading!

- Synopsis: A war between Heaven and Hell takes place on Earth. The main character ends up getting killed and reviving as a devil. He's a simple-minded guy who just wants his own harem. Fortunately, he joins up with other devils that for the most part, treat him with open arms. Despite his perversion, our hero is a kind-hearted guy who cares deeply for those around him. From the moment he revives as a devil, his life changes for better or worst. This anime showcases Issei and his friends' struggle against other inhabitants of Heaven, Hell, and Earth. =========================================================================================================== - Analysis: This anime manages to make a relatively creepy but interesting concept fairly light-hearted and humorous. That is, devils, demons, and the like. While the common assumption that devils are evil is quite known, this anime shows that generalizations aren't always accurate. Even devils are capable of kindness. Furthermore, any faction is capable of good and evil, regardless of who they may be. History would serve as a good example of this. The main character Issei is also a very relatable guy. He's simple-minded and perverted. He isn't a tactician or strategist like some other characters may be. But like many fundamentally weak characters, he has a unyielding spirit to fight with everything he has and to never give up. A trait that may be respectable to some, while annoying to others. - Features: English and Japanese audio, as well as English subtitles. Includes 12 episodes on 2 Blu-rays and 12 on 2 DVDs with a run-time of about 5 hours. Rated TV-MA for violence, language, and sexual content. - Conclusion: Reminder that this anime is fan-service-heavy, uncensored, and will show plenty of boobs. Keep this in mind if fan-service isn't for you. However, it isn't just a simplistic anime, either. There's plenty of humor, perversion, and dark themes that are relevant to the physical world as we perceive it. =========================================================================================================== - Recommendations: Prison School, Binbougami ga!, Maken-Ki, The World God Only Knows, Kampfer, Shinmai Maou no Testament, Omamori Himari, Demon King Daimaou, Lord Marksman and Vanadis, Freezing, Cross Ange, and Aesthetica of a Rogue Hero.

Son friend enjoyed for his 18th.

One of my favourite anime of all time. Don’t be fooled by the fan service, this show is not what it seems, it’s so much more, it’s amazing. It has a really great story, characters, fight scenes, music, and is absolutely hilarious. The English dubs are done really well too. And of course the fan service is excellent. Honestly you have to watch it to understand, words do not describe how good this show is. It’s a crazy combination that somehow manifested into a masterpiece. Easily one of my favourite anime of all time.
