Spoiler for Episode 9:

I actually liked the episode. It was focused on Gasper, a crossdressing vampire boy with extreme fear of talking to anyone because of his dark past. He was adorable even if he acts useless compared to the rest of the Harem King team, but his role as a Bishop was fitting. Too bad he'll become the target of a certain enemy already, but I'm hoping for him to try his own best. The cliffhanger ending was cathartic, and I'll look forward to see the conclusion of the new arc!

Gasper the vampire in the box debuts.

Damn you Gasper you're too cute to be a guy.

Episode 9

Poor Issei, not only that his harem failed to add a new girl, what he got is a cute trap.

Man, Issei.... I know you're not into sword fighting with traps.... Just stick will billiards and archery....

[shalala]

Lool even Michael is good looking. Not too sure why Issei has to meet with him. Gasper voice for some reason annoys me. I feel like it does not fit. Cool Sacred gear though. If he is able to master it. Then it would come in heady with Aisa Sacred Gear. I would have liked if there was more of an effect when Azazel appear. Other then him teaching them some stuff and then leaving even if he did want to talk to Kiba. Still I was not expecting Gasper to be a trap. I'd ship him with Koneko. Them seem lovely together.

Aren't angels supposedly to be beautiful people, what more could you expect from a Chief Angel?..

Ah, now that the vampire is out of the box we can finally talk about Gasper openly now. A fun episode and it introduced him well. His voice was indeed a bit odd but I think it's just the visual gap talking, associating that voice with that adorably cute body. It'll get more familiar in due time I think.

Now the angels have finally made their debut in the story, though I am surprised that Irina seems to be set to return as well based on the preview, I didn't think it would happen this soon.

Cut poor Gasper some slack Issei, he may be a boy but he pulls off this look superbly.

Hmm.......I start to confuse about the power ranking.

Is Archangel Michael (Angel) = Azazel (Fallen Angel)= Four great satans (Devil) in term of rank and power?

[The Green One]

To my knowledge it's never been formally measured between them, it's probably safe to assume they're "comparable".

In terms of rank they are equals, since each of them are the leaders of their respective factions.

In terms of power, you could say that they are equals as well...

Regarding the episode itself, it was pretty slow paced, but contained some pretty funny moments, especially Saji's and Ise's reactions to Gasper's actual gender ...

So, overall ... I enjoyed watching the current episode.

[kukuru]

Political rank doesn't equal power or even battle power.

Theres a ton of spoilers in battle rankings in dxd world, the author goes into that with a lot of details, so there is a real answer that's not open to discussion.

[D-KLAC]

so time meet other bishop aka gasper & yes it's a TRAP person indeed give is a vampire-demon-human but always hide in a box.

so give some training from sword run to garlic & oh azazel appear give some advice yet gasper still hiding.

then issei learn on gasper's past due being dad is noble vampire with mom as a human yet have probs with time powers indeed feel same story like asia had when she got bullied.

so issei give inspire & good feel help gasper did well boost gasper's mood & yet tip in asia, xeno, & koneko give gasper a bag mask to wear in.

all good & now issei with akeno say hello michael of the light angels.

[Benigmatica]

I guess the Bridget was dropped for Gasper! Damn, he's so cute...

Anyways, let's wait a see for the last 3 episodes!

[Haiprbim]

Nice episode, with our little Gasper, the Trap.
Cannot wait for the next one!

[Dengar]

Gasper is so adorable! I totally won't mind adding him to the harem. I mean, we've already got Kiba.
