Dx.4 illustrations soon™
>xD
Fuck off.
>>160013344
Like a clockwork.
>>160013128
>xD
When is soon? Are we finally gonna get more details?
>>160014522
Now. Not season 4, Dx.4
Also, Ishibumi announced that Slashdog is getting a full LN adaptation with miyama illustrations, coming November 11.
>Cao Cao's face
Man, I haven't read the series in forever. What's the latest volume right now aside from Dx.4? What volume is the main story at right now?
Dunno who the fuck this is
>>160014811
Volume 24 is next.
>>160014686
As an anime only fag I can say thats pretty gay
That's it for illustrations, thanks again for your hard work, Miyama.
>>160014762
Isn't serafall supposed to have huge tits?
>>160015122
She's supposed to be like Rias tier tits with a slimmer frame, yeah. The illustration quality/consistency has never been very good.
>>160014852
>Saji is a chad now too
>>160015173
>>160015122
They can freely control their appearances.
>>160015281
After the debacle with Ravel, just blame it on Miyama.
>>160015281
Is that the official excuse, like she went loli mode in the side story? Or is it the Ravel debacle?
>>160015122
>>160015173
>>160015281
Pretty sure thats Sona
>>160015658
Was just about to say, aren't Serafall's eyes canonically blue in the novels?
>>160014810
>Cao Cao getting BTFO by fist caster
Based Sairaorg.
>>160014852
Maybe his little sister?
>>160015973
Tis a shame he's going to have to job for the plot at some point.
>>160013128
>>160014686
Which vampire loli is this one again?
>>160016182
He's not strong enough to be considered a jobber in terms of the higher tier characters
Did we ever get DX3 translated? I wanted my Elmenhile SS.
>>160016190
Elmenhilde, the one that's in Issei's harem.
>>160015822
I don't think so she had eyes like this in anime and on all miyamas art.
The illustrator is slowly losing their grasp of anatomy.
>>160016335
Check DxD 15. Serafall has blue eyes while Sona has light purple. But with Miyama I just can't 100% trust it.
All I can see in terms of spoilers is that Issei and Saji have a really big battle where the latter uses every dirty trick possible to stop Issei and eventually it turns into a brawl that reminded him of Issei vs Sairaorg.
>>160016219
I'm just saying, he's going to have to lose or get cheapshotted out in order to avoid interfering with the direction the story is going in.
Once elimination rounds start, Sairaorg can't get in the way of Issei vs Vali and Issei vs Rias.
And an Issei rematch isn't happening either, Ishibumi already said it in one of the afterwords. He (correctly) believes a rematch would never recapture the magic of the first fight.
>>160016463
The thing is he's mid tier at best so he can easily lose to the God teams at the very least.
>>160016419
Yea you have a point here.
>>160014762
This drawing is fucking awful especially Rias and Issei, what the hell
Even >>160014810 and >>160014852 don't look that good
What the hell?
Did Miyama forget how to draw?
>>160014762
I'm still mad they didn't buff up Issei in the anime desu.
>>160016695
He's been progressively getting worse and pumping out less content to boot.
>>160013128
>>160014686
Cute vampire. Shame this series is so terrible.
>>160016748
Good thing he gave us this at least
He probably just doesn't give a fuck anymore I guess
>>160016825
Through the first 12 volumes I'd say it was an 8/10, but not so much after.
>>160016878
Last few volumes were amazing though, and the side stories are pretty awesome too
>>160016941
Yeah, but the problem is
>tournament arc
Also volume 21 as a big cop out with essentially no one dying to 666, and Vali getting another damn powerup for status quo.
>>160016695
>>160016748
Miyama's probably lost motivation as the series drew on and the lolis got pushed further to the side.
You all notice how she always manages to get in an illustration of Koneko, Ophis, Ravel, Elmenhilde, or Kunou whenever possible, right?
>>160017052
>she
>>160016941
My biggest gripe is how the side stories weren't OVA's until the latest one. They were all so good to use.
>>160017016
What's wrong with tournament arcs?
It had the best fight in the series, and Sirzechs, Zazy, Levia-tan, Micheal and the others might as well be dead
Vali's power-up was bullshit though
>>160017052
I know, but Miyama drew Ravel with Xenovia-tier tits for no reason though
>>160017125
They also ruined the Grayfia one, she was supposed to be drunk in front of everyone and tease them all not just Rias
And they better animate the 3 faction sports festival battle
Grayfia is sexy. Any more about her in the novels?
>>160017278
Ah, that was just a special, not the full on onsen chapter.
>>160017278
That was just one time, get over it. 19 times out of 20 she's drawn amazingly.
>>160017599
She's in a supporting role this arc I guess
>>160017599
Yeah, "conversations" soon
>>160017616
Yeah I know, I don't get why they made anime original OVAs though, DxD has a ton of side stories to adapt
>>160017685
Except the writing confirmed she had huge tits
>>160016741
Please stop reminding me.
>>160014762
>Sonas master plan is to cosplay as Serafall
>>160014762
What the fuck is wrong with MC's arms?
are there any pure deus valt type characters?
i wanna see some cretin get fucked up
>>160016457
>have a really big battle where the latter uses every dirty trick possible to stop Issei
Saji villain confirmed.
>>160014852
Well this is Saji's imouto, apparently.
>>160020668
Is she going to watch her big bro getting beaten up?
>>160020847
>>160014852
>blonde haired buff dude
>cute imouto
>rivalry with MC
>wants to marry a high class devil, but she's against it
Saji is the new Riser, NTR levels are reaching new hights
>>160022136
But Issei doesn't really want to save Sona this time around
>>160022259
Wait until Saji goes evil
>evil dude tries to recruit Saji
>gives him dreams of getting a harem
>Saji goes bad
>Issei steps in
>Saji gets wrecked and sees the error of his ways
>Issei and Saji are friends again but Sona is in Issei's harem
>Saji's imouto is wet for Issei after what happened
>>160022413
>Issei and Saji are friends again but Sona is in Issei's harem

Don't make it worse, emojiscuma
>>160014686
Elmenhilde is quickly rising up the best girl rankings. Her power of absorbing and using powers of blood she consumes is OP as fuck too.
>>160014852
That's saji? wtf I'm gay for him now, how does that bitch sona say he sees him more like a brother, she should say she sees him more like a daddy.
Reminder.
>>160024198
Because she likes smart guys
Issei wins against Sona and and Cao Cao wins against Sairaorg.
>>160026442
Hax powers win once again. Issei hasn't truly beaten Cao Cao yet, and admitted that he was weaker, so I wonder if Cao Cao is one of the bosses this arc.
O MY TRUE LONGINUS
>>160014810
Shouldn't he die from just one hit from Sairaorg?
>>160026903
He already tanked a direct punch from Rook form Issei, so he probably worked on his durability after that.
Season 4 when?
>>160026576
>>160026442
Hax beats anything
Still how does Issei beat Sona, he was too dumb to realize his blood was being drained
Either you behave unpredictably and manage to go outside of her plans or you lose
>>160025042
this
>>160027031
I bet Saji screwed it up by wanting to 1v1 Issei after a certain point.
This thread needs more best girl.
>>160027031
Issei was a rookie then only just having unlocked BB and being shit at combat. You're just completely ignoring his whole progression and team. The very fact you thought Sona had any chance in hell when she's jobber the character is hilarious. You can keikaku all you want, but if the person you're fighting against can just brute force through them with just sheer power there's nothing you can do.
>>160027308
People forget that Sona her self admitted that the gremory team could pretty much over power most strategies she could come up with way back in vol 11 I think, during the wizard attack.
add to that all that everyone has grown and its no surprise that Issei won.
>>160027169
More is always nice though.
>>160027140
He cannot be that stupid
>>160027308
>>160027421
Issei was still retarded for not realizing his blood was being drained
Getting your blood drained is an unmistakable and pretty painful feeling, and something everyone has experienced, not to mention you can't just throw a needle at a guy's arm no matter how good you are
And you cannot bruteforce everything because hax abilities can stop you: Tsubaki can reflect attacks, Momo can create barriers, Tsubasa can make shields and just charging in blindly is suicide
Unless you're Rizevim and can ignore all that noise
>>160027031
She lost on purpose literally dripping.
>>160027748
So do the red dragon emperor pheromones just work like aphrodisiacs or what?
I guess since sacred gears work on the user's desire they might actually be strong enough
>>160014893
Story behind the image.
>Issei meant to use Dress Break on Ruruko but accidentally hits Rossweisse and Irina.
>Irina doesn't mind, but Rossweisse becomes angry that her crimson Valkyrie uniform was destroyed.
>>160029680
>Irina doesn't mind
It's a giant stadium packed to the brim with people from across the world you slut
>>160029738
They probably censored it instantly no harm done.
>>160030773
What is she so smug about?
>>160030829
Being a winner of dragon dick
I wanna FUCK Asia
>tfw so many best girls you can't decide on a waifu
>>160032292
I still can't choose my favorite girl between akeno, irina and xenovia, but if I was forced to choose a single dxd girl, it would be grayfia.
>>160025042
Holy hell i'm buying the manga.
>>160033306
>the manga
>>160014810
Why is my favorite character cao cao getting owned? Last time I read vol 20 he was pretty strong, being indra's vanguard helps too
>>160033444
He wins
>>160033444
No one can take a fucking full cast of FIST from the muscle wizard himself and just walk it off, not even a broken character like Cao Cao
>>160017278
>What's wrong with tournament arcs?
It's boring, uncreative and cliche. Dxd suffers from those tropes too much and it needs something fresh and new.
>>160033506Issei did.
>>160033433
The manga follows the LN way better than the anime it's the second best thing.
>>160033433
What's wrong with the manga?
>>160033799
>>160033822
>not buying the LN and reading it in Japanese
>>160033859
Man fuck that noise. I'm not gonna go through all that for entertainment and a hobby.
Where's my new season? I don't remember it being this long between them. Are they waiting for more material before a new season, or what the ducks going on
>>160034154
The two volumes are a lot of high speed action and shit so they probably need a lot more time to make it. BorN was hastily made with director issues and we all know how that turned out.
>>160033859
>not going back to school and majoring in Japanese to master the language so you can read the source material before the translations come out
I remember I stopped reading after 666 got unsealed, and then sealed again, I think it was Volume 20 or 21
How many other volumes got translated after that? Is it up to date? I have some free time now so I could catch up
>>160034187
>not being able to read it after a few shitty months of teaching yourself basic knowledge because Ishibumi's prose is basic enough to be a middle school bookI swear to god first person narration and sound effects really fires up my neurons
>>160034304
21 is when it got sealed up again. 22/23 is the start of the next arc and this is volume 23.5.
I believe 22 is fully translated now and 23 is starting.
>>160034154
All i know is Ishibumi talked about TNK working on it on his blog. No clue why they've been silent since the announcement aside from that though.
Kuroka volume when?
>>160036110
Never.
More spoilers.
>1. The serafall image is not serafall but Sona in costume doing her show for her
>2. Cao Cao defeats Sairaorg (I should stress in the rating game. As in Cao Cao won because some of his team was left standing. In the 1v1 match with Sairaorg we don't know).
>3. Sona looses to Issei
>4. Ravel is able to defeat Tsubaki by using the Doujin that featured Kiba x Issei. Oh yea also its famous in the underworld now.
>5. Apparently, not confirmed, Leonardo is not in Cao Cao's team.
>6. Vali becomes popular in the underworld because he is a real lucifer
>7. Issei accidentally uses dress break on Irina and Rosseweisse while trying to aim at Ruruko, Irina is like whatever but Rosseweisse is mad that her new uniform is gone.
>8. Perseus has a medusa shield
Make a shinmai maou no testament thread
>>160038807
>1. The serafall image is not serafall but Sona in costume doing her show for her
Well that explains things.
>>160034310
I'm about to duolingo this motherfucker just to get to read moon runes and be one of those dickheads that write fake spoilers.
>>160039574
>who asked her to do it
>how are they still alive
>why did she say yes
>how many times did Sona scream i want to die
Too many questions.
>>160038807
>The serafall image is not serafall but Sona in costume doing her show for her
>Sona with long hair or twin tails
Better design yes/no?
>>160039743
Twin tails are childish it works for Serafall, but just looks wrong on Sona.
>>160038807
>4. Ravel is able to defeat Tsubaki by using the Doujin that featured Kiba x Issei. Oh yea also its famous in the underworld now.
Ishibumi pls, I missed this humor.
>5. Apparently, not confirmed, Leonardo is not in Cao Cao's team.
This poor fucking kid is gonna be used until death by Indra
>8. Perseus has a medusa shield
Cao Cao's whole team is completely reliant on weapons it seems, I'm sure this will backfire.
>>160038807
>>160029680
>>160029738
Irina is supposed to be an angel
How is she not a fallen by now?
So I got the manga and its seems to be pretty fast paced. Was the LN as fast?
>>160041606
No the LN is slower paced and takes more time to develop the characters,world building with more inner thoughts of Issei,etc. The manga and the anime just slap the important events in your face and moves on.
>>160041972
Dammit. I figured. That explains why those other 3 fallen angels weren't shown during the raynare fight. I am disappointed.
>>160038807
I admit I'd read the shit out of a Kiba x Issei doujin especially if the artist keeps Issei /fit/. Kinda becoming Yumi for half of it works too.
Nice to know Lucifer is beloved considering he's been dead and his descendants weren't in power in the Underworld.
So if I want the full story, I gotta go through the really bad translations on baka tsuki?
>>160042244
The translation quality improves over the volumes hey it could always be worse there could be no translation at all. But yes if you want the whole story you need to read the LN.
>>160041972
>world building
Don't lie to the guy.
>>160042341
Thats a relief. Still gonna buy the manga. Hopefully by doing so, they finally licence the LN.
>>160042562
I fucking hope they don't
Licensing means no more fantranslations, and you don't want that when you're 23 volumes in
>>160042710
Hm...gotta point. But I do want a physical copy in my hands.
>>160042772
Then print it
>>160042783
Meh. Might as well support the manga. Might be fast but the story's still more or less coherent. Think this happened to the Haruhi manga.
In the next volume does Issei finally kiss or do something with best bird?
Ophis' spawn yet?
>>160013128
Red wine and lemon?
Blood and lemon?
Both are wrong.
>>160043590
Looks like an orange.
>>160043162
Wouldn't it be incest?
>>160043812
She's a god. Gods are immune to the negative issues with incest.
>>160043812
Nothing x nothing = nothing, so it's okay.
>>160042825
Enjoy watching the story move at a glacial pace once you catch up, and it never actually making it to the best parts.
>>160043844
>>160043879
Ok, but wouldn't a kid between Ophis and Issei break the universe?
That child would be stupidly OP, if Issei has any brains at all he should get on it right away
>>160043977
Well he's not overly bright, and she's a god. A broken god at that. Not sure if she can have children in the traditional way. But he can certainly have a Ophis and Lillith threeway though.
>evil
>>160044132
>inferior to the rest of the girls
>>160044048
Ophis can do whatever she wants with her body and appearance so she could have kids if she wanted
Just have a threesome with Ophis/Lilith and one of the other girls to show her how it's supposed to be
>>160044171
By broken I meant that Lilith exists. She's literally a broken god. Plus once again she's a weird dragon god. Who knows if she even can have kids in the traditional fashion. She might, but she also might not. I doubt it's ever been tested.
>>160044218
If anyone can and should test this, it's Issei
At least that's what Azazel would say
>>160044247
No doubt.
>>160044263
Speaking of Azazel, I'd love an Azazel prequel
Since Ishibumi said he'd like to continue writing about this universe Azazel is by far the most interesting character
>>160038807
>Oh yea also its famous in the underworld now.
>>160038807
>Issei is elevated to a sex god in the underworld due to the doujin.
>>160035066
There's that festival for the LN it's under that's coming up in October.
>>160047512
The avatar of lust is gonna have temples built in his honor
>>160013128
Elmenhilde fights against Rugal by using Gundam.
Xenovia defeats Sona and acknowledged her as a successor of the SC.
Seekvaira sent a Gundam figure to either Issei or Saji.
Ddraig and Vritra declared theyd keep fighting as long as their bodies could move, even if their consciousness left.
Bennia fights against Bova, with Bennia having the advantage.
>>160046470
How does that even happen?
The only possibility is someone from Sona's peerage being responsible
>>160051356
Kuoh is influential in the underworld which means what gets popular there can get popular elsewhere.
Volume 24 is confirmed a Koneko/Kuroka volume in the afterword.
>>160051448
Yeah but we're talking about a clandestine manga that secretly spread throughout the school
That said going on for 15 volumes means that someone was covering for them
In vol.25 for sure!
>>160051582
>>160051509
>Kuroka volume
My fucking dick
>>160051582
Give it up
The only chance she has is if parallel universes get involved
>AU Raya-chan appears and hugs Issei
>Issei is scared shitless but still doesn't pull away because her tits are pressing against him
Saji has a younger brother and sister
>>160051509
YEEEEEEEES BEST GIRL KUROKA GETTING THE SPOTLIGHT
>>160052555
So Issei gets another girl and another guy in his harem?
I know he's a dragon but he's just hoarding harem members at this point
>>160055303
I don't think they're in his harem at all. Ishibumi hasn't really added people that much over the last 10 volumes.
Come to bed
>>160060228
Part of me wants to point out that Akeno has 6 wings. 2 devil and 4 fallen angel.
Then my dick says to shut the hell up!
>>160060139
Today its Akeno´s birthday, first mom, best kidof the male kids at least, he ties with Airi for best over all, ara ara goddess, messenger of the chichigami, and best female fallen angel.
>>160061901
oops , forgot my pic.
>>160057062
Yeah but he got a bunch more in the future so he'll clearly have a bunch more show up at the end wanting his dick.
>>160062431
There's 20 kids and 10 confirmed mothers, however at least a few of them have other kids, because it was stated that only the kids of age to fight were in EX. I'd estimate that there's only a handful of girls left.
