And on Baka-Tsuki there are full translations for the first 5 novels(the 3rd isn't there because its more of a prologue so not as interesting I believe) so I would say start with those 5 first

And also, a good amount of the mythology stuff is made up, but I still love it anyways

Having ten different abilities he can use depending on who he is fighting(given the right conditions), with his [Warrior] form being practically effective against any god or campione does make him overpowered compared to a campione with only one authority (and one use only). Both have killed one god and gained his ability. Though it is just my opinion.

On baka tsuki only the prologue of Vol. 4 is translated, or are you referring to a different site?

Oh my bad, I havent looked at the site in a while, been reading the Chinese translations for a week straight

There are summaries on JCafe24 under the Campione section, you need an account and 1 post to be able to view the summaries, once you locate the campione thread there are like 9 pages, i think like the 7th one or so contains the summaries.(Don't think I'm allowed to link it to you directly, well you can PM me if you can't find it)

Also, yes some of his individual abilities are strong but in the end it is just from one god. The other Campiones already have many under their control. I think of it as a way for Godou to stand somewhat of a chance vs other Campiones. Plus he hasn't mastered all the 10 abilities yet. Once you read further you will start to see more of his limitations and just how big of a gap his fighting abilities are compared to others.

I think n0m@n is buried by translation requests already. I suppose I might get to Volumes 3 and 4 eventually, if no one continues. Volume 5 had a lot of hype (Youth scene perhaps? Or Ena's introduction). And I wanted to do justice to the Chinese mythology in 6 and 7.

Not really, more like 6 and 7 will come together, but only when I have the time...

Presumably. Campiones don't die of disease or old age, that's for sure. Though Voban is introduced as the oldest Campione, a much older one is mentioned later.

Quote:

Shouldn't the marquis be able to get more out of his authority (Apollo)? Having control over wolves is nice, but what about the other aspects, rat swan and serpent?Compared to Godou, who gained 10 authorities by killing one god, marquis's single authority is a little underwhelming

Well, there was the whole swallowing the sun part, so there should have been more solar related powers.

Quote:

Are Osiris and Apollo ability sealed permanently or is it just temporary?

Apollo should be completely sealed, while Osiris is partial. For example, part of his Dead Servants were freed. How does "partial" work on his other Osiris powers, who knows? After all, Voban hasn't reappeared yet. Besides, he has tons of authorities from all the gods he killed for sport so he didn't seem too worried.

When is aisha fully mentioned?

From what I remember, the golden sword is temporary anyway. It should last for a few hours, a day at best. But don't ask me where I read that...

I don't know. I know V8 mentions her, but some earlier volumes should do so, too... how about V1C1, when Erica meets the leaders of the knight orders? They wonder who they can rely on and go through the first six campione... There we should get "Aisha, Eternal Beauty, Queen of the Cave, seen by nobody for a long time". That's the most we ever learn about her.

ReaperxKingx · 2012-07-04, 08:42

I forgot where, but Aisha is the Oldest Campione alive. She hasn't been seen in 200 years. Right now, the active Oldest Campiones are Marquis Voban (Title: Balkans' Devil, guy must have good taste in countries. The Balkans is a very beautiful ancient looking country) and Luo Hao (Title: Jiangnan's Leader, she too must have good taste in countries. That place is probably the only place that could remind me of the Mythical city Atlantis, so much water there). Both are respectfully the same age, 200 years at least and are rivals. Aisha (Title: Alexandria's Lady. She is from Egypt, pretty much everyone knows Egypt so I will not go into much details) she is 1800 years old. Most likely she is the strongest out of all the Campiones due to the experience she has. First mentioned in vol 1, not too much is known about her. Best to ask Kadi or zzhk.

gevara20 · 2012-07-04, 16:21

what ability awekned Yuri after received "youth protection?"

ReaperxKingx · 2012-07-04, 16:35

I think the Youth gives all the girls the same power which is the battle awareness of the Campiones, body characteristics of Campiones (Like healing fast) and high increase of Magic. Godou becomes a real Lady Killer when he uses the Youth. Didn't he swore he had to block that ability and never use it again in vol 5?

gevara20 · 2012-07-04, 16:57

someone in this forum said that youth awekned hidden ability. hence Yuri end up witch new ability. In vol 10 page 301 Yuri looks like she use new power

ReaperxKingx · 2012-07-04, 17:00

Best to ask Kadi or zzhk concerning those matters, my guess is that the Youth increase Yuri's Spirit Vision.

Miraluka · 2012-07-04, 17:31

No way he will seal the only way to fight back the girls.

Spoiler for Youth incarnation:

cutieteen97 · 2012-07-04, 17:59

Since he's a Campione and doesn't have issues with disease or age, why the hell is Liliana so concerned about his nutritional intake (like the stuff in vol 5)?

ReaperxKingx · 2012-07-04, 18:00

He change quite a bit over the course of each volumes. He is still a bit green when it comes to intimate moments, but he is a lot better. Oh cutieteen97 he does not die of age or disease, but his body is still a bit normal. He still feel sleepy if he haven't gotten enough sleep, evidence in vol 5. He will probably feel weak if he hasn't eaten the right foods as well.

Kadi · 2012-07-04, 18:04

She just likes doting on him, living out her secret fantasies... the beginning of V5 makes that rather obvious, I think...

As we all know, what Godou decides is never what ends up happening in these kinds of matters, much to his chagrin.

Agree here. Though it's enjoyable.

I think I tried to post my own theory before reading the latest volume. Ah, here it is:

Hey, just wanted to say I'm super grateful for your work and happy to see you from the DxD community! Vol 5 was SUPER fun! Those Yuri moments were

Kadi 知識の探求者 Join Date: Feb 2012	sighs Spoiler for Youth incarnation: From my understanding, using the Youth on a girl heals her wounds, her physical and mental fatigue and gives her a share of a Campione's (humongous) magic energy. That's it. Also, it's temporary. What the girls do with that boost is up the them. E.g. I think in V5 Erica uses it to activate a spell that she normally can't use due to lack of energy reserves. It's the same for the other girls.
