Ahh that it does. What traits are hereditary to the Gremory family then? We haven't heard much about that side of the family.

Besides the crimson hair, I don't really think they've ever mentioned the trait passed through the House of Gremory, especially since really the only ones that can claim to have the Gremory trait and not the Baal trait is Rias' dad, since both Rias and Sirzechs got the Power of Destruction.

[dragonroots]

The two things the Gremory family is known for is their crimson hair and their loving nature towards their servants.

[Mura]

Not much is known about their Devil Powers or lineage though. I do find that quite odd.

[quezero]

aside from the kind caring side of the Gremory I don't know.

Dude, Vali's fighting sexual. The whole reason he answered butt is because Odin pressured him into answering. If given the choice of boobs, face, butt..........................or how good a girl can fight, Vali would likely choose the last one.

Honestly if he actually did care about butt he would have already lost his virginity to Kuroka. When you have such a nice ass (plus the boobs and the face) offering such a good deal and even going as far to try to seduce you and you still don't take it.................

Yeah, Issei is perfectly justified to think Vali is gay.

Havesgate, please don't bring any other works in this thread. It would only cause problems forus with the Moderators. Anyhow, over here in Florida is 12:43 am so this will be my last post. Has there been any news concerning the Novel thus far? It should be noon or close to noon over in Japan.

[A Random Stranger]

according to amazon.jp the book will be available by april 21? o.o I hope some local book shop would release them today

Well in terms of pure power Issei is definitely top class. It's highly implied that even his BB mode is ultimate class in raw power. Plus it was never stated that Rias's father is extremely strong (certainly not maou level). So Issei being stronger isn't that unnatural.

Most people are weaker than Ise nowadays

[dragonroots]

@Clue Ise in BB no boosts is apparently at the level of a top-tier high class devil, if he were to boost he would probably hit ultimate class level power (though that would probably just be at the weakest level of ultimate class), going into Trianna he'd probably be mid-tier ultimate class, and CCQ will be anywhere from high to top-tier ultimate class.

Looking back I still found it funny how everybody stated that Issei was the least talented.

Six months latter Issei grew at a exponential pace while others grew at a arithmetic pace.

Koneko ironcially grew the slowest being not even at high level devil yet and she pointed out Issei's lack of potential the most.

Karma's a bitch.

I look at it differently.
Vali is the most talented ever in the traditional way of measuring power.

Isse IS the least talented ever in the traditional way. However, Isse created his own path through the way of Oppai and in this new way, he is every bit the rival of Vali and likely the strongest Red Dragon Emperor ever (True Queen). Also, what Isse lacks in talent, he makes it up with his heart and work ethic. That's actually one of the reasons I like Isse so much. He IS one of the least talented in the whole series, but he carves his own path and works harder than anyone else.

No, Koneko isn't the slowest because she actually HAS growth. The slowest or rather the person with virtually no growth is Rias. Now that is ironic since Rias started out in volumes 1 and 2 as the strongest in the team and by volume 11, excluding the Bishops who are support units, is the second weakest (only ahead of Koneko).

[dragonroots]

@Log Well, remember also Sairorg, when he was born he was said to have low potential like Ise, he trained hard and proved everyone wrong. Same situation with Ise, everyone was saying how weak he was and how he had no potential in him at all, he trained hard and became one of the strongest beings. That's why the two of them get along so well, Sairorg is the same as Ise in terms of potential.

@whsie actually she is probably still as strong as Akeno and maybe just abit stronger than Zenovia, here's my ranking of their power.

#1 Ise (duh)
#2 Kiba
#3/4/5 Akeno, Rias, Ross (all have equal power imo)
#6 Zenovia (not by much is she behind Akeno, Rias and Ross)
#7 Koneko
#8 Gasper (yes he can fight so he gets a ranking above Asia)
#9 Asia (obv cause she can't fight)

Well before Ise comes back is a perfect chance for growth for Rias. She has relied on Ise the most. With him gone she will have to step up the most especially with the battle to come. Maybe she'll show her strength from her Gremory father rather the power she inherited from her Baal mother.

[Clue]

Doubt this^
it's kind of illogical to have sairarog, a devil around rias age, be as strong as an ultimate class devil just because he trained extremely hard.
the demon world is approximately the same size as the earth with a much smaller population
If they can live for 10000 what happened to all the people that have been training just as hard for 5000years should they be considered super ultra meg ultimate class?
the power levels and the rate of progress between characters when compared to background knowledge is so illogical...
