    Himegami is the best character in the series and the nurse is pretty good.

    Oh god no not another dxd. Maken ki was..watchable. Boob anime and good story lines don't mix. Not even GREAT story lines..I'm just asking for good. Decent. Had to drop dakura boku, freezing ugh..Hagure is clingling to life..still have queens blade on hold. Japan must be doing this on purpose. Purify society, fill the industry with moe and make all ecchi unbearable to watch.

    Either that or make everyone pedos. I'm looking at you nisimonogatari.

    lol fuck off

    The writing, plot, and characters in DxD are miles ahead of god damned any "ecchi" anime I can think of, and it should damn well be recognized for it.

    It was well received by even the most jaded, the most cynical, and the most prudish which is a damn fine accomplishment for a show in its genre.

    It's very obvious to me that you just don't like shows with heavy fanservice.

    @11:24

    Yes, it's standard shounen fair mixed with ecchi, the main character starts out weak, but gets stronger, and so he doesn't come off as completely useless and pathetic like 99% of the shounen leads in ecchi and actually earns the love of the many girls that fall for him.

    This is the greatest distinction between DxD and other ecchi, and if you can't see and appreciate that, that's your problem. And at least have the decency not to group it with the other generic ecchi garbage, any attempts at doing so are merely a practice in foolishness given that "DxD is generic and sucks" is furthest possible thing from an objective assessment. :/

    yeah, at least the main girl Issei was after didn't has an issue with his perversion (until later I hear which is fucked up).
    makenwhateverhisname wouldn't even hit girls and wants a fucking emotionally eff tsundere instead of Himegami, we don't need another Sanji, we have Sanji for the white knight role.

    Yeah they were both aimed at the same types of people. I'm all for boob anime thats just for fun or funny, ladies vs butlers is one of my favorites, but dxd seemingly (I dropped it after like 7 episodes) attempted to have some deep smart religious story line which insults the intelligence of any person with even a drop of theological study. Now don't think I'm overly religious I actually like it when nuns are getting #^#*%&* in anime I think its hot. But I guess being too educated I couldn't enjoy all the incorrect representations. Even if there were boobs. Make a fun carefree storyline that's fine like maken ki or lvb. Or make a deep smart storyline thats fine too. But don't get stuck in the middle or it fails. If you're actually knowledgeable about the references dxd makes, the inaccuracies will hurt your head and it will even start to seem like propaganda. PLUS even if you remove the religious demonish themes completely the plot is as generic and generic can get. I can name at least 15 series off the top of my head with the same story, same protagonist, and the exact same characters, one I already mentioned in my first post. That's not so much true with maken ki. This concludes my sankaku anime review.

    Except DxD makes no explicit mention of any religion. You're fooling yourself if you think it does. The mild religious overtones are just used as a back-drop to portray demons in a non-black and white light.

    And 15 stories? My God, how I hate obnoxious hyperbole.

    What makes DxD great is that its elements combined work better than most that attempt to do the same; it blends harem, romance, comedy, perversion, and a little bit of drama much better than most that attempt it. It's protagonist, who may be your standard idiotic pervert, is highly sympathetic, and does so much more to earn the love of the girls, it's not even arguable. You wouldn't be able to name single damn "ecchi" protagonist who sacrifices body parts in order to protect the girl he loves and later even dies for it. Another great thing about DxD, is that the female characters, for the most part, aren't useless bimbos. They're both strong and feminine, something 90% of harem chicks fail at. That's speaking on a character level. The anime manages to establish a great atmosphere, great production values, much higher than your standard ecchi fare, the voice work is so energetic and convincing; it's like the voice actors don't even exist, they meld and become one with their characters, the art direction is solid, and the animation is much, much better than your average anime. The sum of the parts here is far greater than the whole, which is why so many people like it.

    I'm sorry, but the minute you attempt to portray DxD as inferior to, like, any other ecchi anime, you are OBJECTIVELY wrong.

    Oh, and DxD being an affront to your sensibilities as a theologist or whatever the fuck you call yourself? Really? At this point one can only say that you're taking it way too seriously.

    No, actually, I think I'm going to give your way of thinking a whirl; I'm going to go watch Airplane and I'm going to boo it to hell and back because spoof/slapstick comedy is an affront to my sensibilities as an intelligent and educated individual, and bitch and moan about why the humor in the movie should have been grounded in witty raporte.

    Seriously, get the fuck off your elitist soapbox; you're way too fucking vanilla to pull it off. :/

    I'm not going to bother to read your story, from just glancing at it I see nothing but rants which always lack logic so I'm not even going to waste my time looking for rational perspective. Stop being an emotional woman and state your points clearly if you expect a response from me. Condescending rants don't hurt my feelings they just show me desperation and compensations from lack of intelligence. Notice how I made my points without having to, or caring to, personally attack.

    too dumb;didn't read.

    I am not anon 16:13. I am the one who wrote that "story".

    A few things:
    1- I afforded myself a different kind of obnoxious luxury - that mild personal attack - that you did yourself: appealing to your own authority and hubris. I see no problem here. Unless you possess any double standards? :)

    2- In that "story", I very clearly delineated why DxD is a notch above most ecchi. Whether you read my post or acknowledge that fact is no skin off of my back; I don't need you acknowledge the validity of geocentric theory in order for it to be true.

    3- As 16:13 has said, there is not a HINT of objectivity in your assessment of DxD, only hilariously subjective metrics used to measure objectivity.

    4- It's so very ironic that you call me out on my "unclear" presentation of my arguments, yet yours, in comparison, is severely lacking. Is the trope "brick of text" foreign to you?

    5- I think I'm about done here, as it seems you aren't interested in being confronted by reason or rational discourse yourself (if you were, half the things present in your miserable excuses for arguments would not be present).

    So good day, and I hope you develop superior taste one day.

    See how that works? :)

    Taylor, you realize that this, word for word, can be used against you, right? Anyone can dismiss your, uh, "argument", by the very same metrics you used to dismiss anon 10:55's, right?

    What's more, you essentially claim to have superior tastes, then go on to name Ladies vs. Butlers as a favorite of yours? You realize that the characters, writing, and plot are total garbage, right? Or is it good by virtue of you liking it alone?

    Man, you're a funny one.

    I'm being attacked by fanboys it seems. Listen this is essentially an argument over opinion. In FUN I tried to make it a logical rational battle of points and perspective. But all I'm getting is people reacting like they are so incredibly butt hurt the only way they can feel better is to try and hurt my feelings, and call me names, and be mean to me. I'm telling mommy.

    I have no desire to get into internet fights which is why even still I have not had to resort to insults and putdowns. Insults stem from a lack of anything smart to say. I don't mind debating over a series (which again is essentially opinion) but you people aren't doing it smart enough for me. All you're doing is "You're opinion is stupidd y-you s-stupid, Stupid! Baka!" Are you guys tsundere over me? I win if you have to resort to these desperate tactics to make a point. You're just a dog barking at the moon. I'm only dignifying your rants with a response in hope you may see the err of your ways. I am a king here, be happy that I have so much as acknowledged you.

    By the way I'll let you in on a secret, if you take a look at all my posts it will be clear I enjoy being the villain on this site. So being mean to me and calling me names does NOT bother me. It's what you're SUPPOSED to do. Don't play so easily into my hands and please notice this without me having to say it. I'm like the joker you're not supposed to like me. Present a challenge. The joker was smart, batman was smart, the joker had no interests in the common meaningless thugs and their rants. Ie; you. The best way to attack me and make me look foolish, which is what it seems like you're trying so desperately to do, is to not bark at the moon but to use intelligence. If you can, that is.

    That is all. I have finished you on this thread, try again on another.

    Yeah I agree with that. After reading the novels, I was disappointed that the anime had so much fan service. I definitely feel that they could have done with less service. There are 13 novels, now, that has to account for something.
