Just caught up with the spoilers and read some very interesting events. Poor Bova, Ishibumi needs to give the guy a break. Also while I know dress break was useless against Rias but why didn't he use that move to read her mind through her breast.

Asia's BxB told Rizeviem to piss off, this is not new.

Stop trying to shove everything in your static little box. Everyone here is constantly growing and improving their powers. Ishi has never even pretended that the status quo was set in stone.

And that's why I said it makes sense. Its the "what the author needs at the moment" level of power. If you think that way, nothing needs to follow a logic and any kind of power up makes sense. You just have to give the excuse of "everyone is training and improving", and guys will keep improving and at the end of the series everyone will be at the level of a Heavelyn Dragon.

Life 1: The Debut of the New Devil (Ingvild)

Issei wakes up from his dream and thinks that he was marrying more than 12 people, but cant think of anyone. 4:30 in the morning, so Rias tells Issei time for morning exercises. Issei x Rias kiss than left to do morning training.

Issei, Elmen, Nakiri, Bova, Ravel, Ingvild are doing a marathon. Church Trip, Rose, and Roygun has their own dedicated space. Its hard for Elmen to train during the day, but Ingvild is fine bc she use to run around the beach. Its an increible sightseeing Ravel and Elmen training are laughing together as they train

In the park where many things happen, Issei is helping Bova do 500 push ups. Nakiri mentions that the previous Ouryuu, could’ve been the strongest one in history. Asia arrives to bring water and talks about the past. Issei and Ravel discuss copyright fees earned from Oppai Dragon, and they used it to buy a mountain forest. Before the RG, they need to focus on Ingvild's first time working as a devil.
In Issei's office, they're seeing Ingvild work for the first time. He remembers when he at first he couldnt transfer with Magic Circles. Ravel has a headache because Ingvild has too much magical power to control, so theres a high chance the transfer could explode. This is proof of her power as a descendent of the Old Maou Leviathan, so Issei decides to accompany her
Lavina, Kiryuu and Mil-tan summons Ingvild. Lavinia says that her students learn very quickly. Kiryuu is using magic to make love horiscopes to swindle money, and Mil-tan is obsess with flying in the air. Someone summons Ingvild to help him move into his new apartment and that person is Vali. Vali summoned them because Issei's peerage, Vidar, and his own team recommended him to help him his move stuff to his new apartment in Kuoh Town. Slashdog team arrives and they start making Yakisoba noodles

Le Fay came to help with the move, but Kuroka is sleeping at Issei's house. Vali is interested ing Ingvild and the new Longinus because both of them are similar to each other, as they possess the possibility of overwhelming power beyond normal devils and says that all of this is based on how she is guided. He asked if Issei will use her in the RG as he would like to discuss it and he's looking forward to fighting against the 1st Gen Wukong. Vali asked if Issei will be merciless against Rias, and he says he will to live up to his companions. Minagawa yells at them to stop talking and help move.

After the move, Vali gives Ingvild a White Dragon plushie as payment for the work. They return to the office and Asia is interested with the plushie. Ravel pulls Issei to discuss Oppai Dragon work. Issei sighs at all the work for school, devil, DxD missions, Oppai Dragon, and the RG, as the RDE.

Spoiler for Life 2:

Life 2: International Rating Game Conference:

On a large outdoor stage, Oppai Dragon and Darkness Knight Fang are fighting against Evil Dragon General Bavo and the new enemy Marshal of Phoenix(Riser). Switch Princess arrives to help defeat Riser. Backstage Issei and Kiba discuss about how Riser isnt that popular with kids and Akeno has been singing the Oppai Dragon song with children. Issei returns home to Rias, Koneko, and Akeno. Kiba promises to defeat Issei.

Ravel gives Issei a special fan letter that was sent by a Grim Reaper of Hades, because of the Mysterious Devils and Nyx, they're alarmed, but there is nothing unusual about its contents: "I am very interested in Oppai Dragon, every time I see it, I feel it in my heart. I have a mother but no father. Can you be my chichi (father) if you can?" Grim Reaper. Issei is touched by the letter, Ravel says though his position is complicated, if Oppai Dragon can save a child thats a good thing. Issei immediate writes a reply in his spare time

In the afternoon, Sairaorg's team arrives and he praises Issei for the letter. Sairaorg vs
Shooting Star and Indra vs Mahabali. Issei wants to join in helping Sairaorg prepare, but Sairaorg stops him saying that opponents shouldn't participate in team meetings. Issei says that they're comrades in arms. Rias and Riser join and Riser says that Shooting Star has devils that arent High-class but arent recognized by the government while Rias says that they have wizards whose generations of generations have mutated in ability. Also Shooting Star has unlocked his SG a few years ago and is able to master its abilties.

Sairaorg talks about Ruval and how his team has Gods and Longinus. Riser says Ruval's not using his own peerage, and they discuss Unknown Dictator's abilities. Sairaorg says that he wouldn't be able to fight his own woman. Issei says he wont hold back and Rias blushes and says that if something like this would affect their marriage, then she'll be very strict.
Sairaorg wants to have a revenge match against Issei, Issei agrees and says that whether a god or his fiancée, he'll win. Riser tells Sairaorg he still has him, but Ravel teases him saying that everyone is ignoring him, to which everyone laughs.

Rias and Issei teams (Minus Crom and Bina) watch Indra vs Mahabali. The rules are Defeat the King and win. There are no special rules. Indra's team has the 4 Heavenly Kings and his son Arjuna. Mahabali has a team of Asuras. Mahabali has 6 arms each holding a weapon, while Indra summons his own weapons at attacks with lightning from the sky which shakes the space. Akeno says that his lightning is a different level compared to hers and her fathers. Issei is shocked, but Ddraig tells him he defeated Typhon, Vidar, and Nyx, so have more confidence.

At the end of the battle, Mahabali's team have been severely strucked by lightning and Indra's face is shown to be ecstatic of the fight. Indra complements Mahabali and he replies its not a bad thing being complemented by an enemy. Ravel says they should prepare.

Oh I forgot about that, thanks for reminding me.

Issei tried to use Pailingual but due to Rias and Gasper being fused, all he could hear was just jumbling voices of Rias and Gasper so that technique was useless as well.

Blazor 98 · 2018-12-20, 13:50

So, do you all think Rias got the best of Ravel when it came to tactics in this match?

Yeah, no. This is just you being upset that you can't keep track of power levels.

Trying to say that the characters always training is some kind of plot device is just silly. "Oh the people trying to get stronger got stronger, plot hole!". Especially when one of the basic premises of the series was that the death of God and collaboration of various mythologies allowed for extreme and unusual growth.

Spoiler for Life 3:

Life 3: Before the Final Battle
Before the day for their joint training session on the mountains, Akeno and Koneko both want to spend time with their husband as Akeno doesnt get to spend much time with Issei and Koneko kisses Issei and is sad bc she will be going on the 2nd Year trip to Kyoto so they wont be able to be together for a while. Bc of the RG, Akeno's feeling because fighting with her husband makes her sad and her S and M elements are complicating her feelings. Issei says that he'll defeat them, but for now he'll spoil them. All of his other wives(Except Kuroka) arrived cockblocking Issei, so they all slept on the same bed....until Xenovia kicked Issei off of it again.

Next day, they arrive at their training camp, Issei, Ouryuu, and Bova went mountain climbing, Xenovia and Irinia trained with each other, Roygun with Bina, and Rose, Asia, Elmen, Ravel, and Ingvild study magic together. Ingvild with little effort is very talented, but there are some concerns. Her power is unstable and to use her in the RG requires a lot of Pieces as she would take up 7 Pawns with the fact that her powers have been sealed and she hasnt trained with her SG meaning she could limit Issei, Bova, and Ouryuu as well as recording her singing is not allowed in the RG. Ingvild also has the powers of the Leviathan clan's "Sea Serpent Dragon Tail" which allows her to flood large numbers of uninhabited cities and she may also transform into a Snake-shaped Dragon. She sometimes unconsciously uses it, which forms a water dragon. Issei decides not to use Ingvild against Rias, and after agreeing to it, she falls asleep as a symptom of her sleep sickness, she falls asleep at school and at work.

Everyone continues training for 3 days, Issei has been training to stay in DxD for as long as possible as well as exploring more inside of his SG. After training everyone watches Sairaorg vs Shooting Star RG, the field is a sea surface with many islands with the beginning of the match shows a cannon fire towards an island for Shooting Star. The attacked retired a Bishop and Pawn of Sairaorg. Sairaorg deliberately flies to the air to provoke them to attack him. Shooting Star's Rook is a low-level Devil, Bishop's technique was praised by Rose, and his Knight is super-fast. Roygun says that her connections revealed that all of his members have been discovered by Shooting Star by "There is delicious food there" and invited them to the Azazel Cup. Shooting Star is revealed to be a 30 year old Magician with Devils also as his ancestor. He possess Devil's blood, but its very thin which is how he got his Longinus.
Shooting Star and Sairaorg are fighting each other on a island where their attacks are destroying a small island in the distance, Sairaorg feels that he's not using BxB. Shooting Star says that he has no talent and without this sword he'd fail. Sairaorg relates to him saying they're the same as he didnt inherit the POD, so he uses BtB and tells him to use his Longinus to defeat his. They fight like when Sairaorg fought Issei, and Sairaorg tells him no matter what, they cant change all the loses he faced in the Preliminaries, Shooting Star says they dont care about that as they'll keep moving forward step by step. Ravel says that Shooting Star's team finished eating just before the RG, so they all start collapsing and Shooting Star cant beat Sairaorg in a physical contest. Sairaorg punches Shooting Star which knocks him to the ground. They talk about being acknowedged by Oppai Dragon and Shooting Star satisfied surrenders.

Issei excited with the RG and his date with Rias enters the bath where he meets a sliver haired girl who looks younger than 20yrs old Grayfia. She points her mask back on and says she knows about his date with Rias. Her participating in the RG is a secret that the Gremories dont even know until her face was revealed during Dulio's match. She's only here to make Issei become a Maou. Though he isnt interested in politics, he imagined Ingvild who is a descendent of Leviathan would be troublesome. Issei asked why does she want him to be Maou, she says that he has supported children, saved the UW numerous times, and has earned the acknowledgement of the old devils, also her younger brother will need to take on the task of the next generation, so he should stand up and face them.
Issei sees her face that shows she's determined to make him Maou, but also sees unstableness. He remembers Sirzechs telling him to become a Maou before leaving and telling him to be there for Grayfia as she's lonely. Also that Grayfia is clinging to those words which is the reason why she’s so focus on making him Maou.. Issei says he'll fulfill Sirzechs' request to be there for Rias, Grayfia, and Millicus. Grayfia becomes shocked when he mentioned Millicus, Issei says that even if he wanted to be Maou, I should be with his family. He tells her that since Sirzechs left Millicus must also be lonely. Grayfia shocked and speechless leaves the bath. The Church Trio arrives and a misunderstanding occurs until Ravel diffuses it. Issei and Ravel later discuss that they've never seen Grayfia like this before, and that she needed to face this and they should tell Lord Gremory. Ravel says he's become more king like and she'll support him as his manager.

Issei and Rias go on a date where they travel to Tokyo by train. They talk about how Issei sacrificed his left arm become a Dragon's arm to save her from her marriage ceremony and now he's a full Dragon. Though Issei is a humanoid Dragon reincarnated, revived by the 2 Dragon Gods, and has Dragon Deification, his soul is the same. Also that he'll knock down a God, as well as his master, girlfriend and fiancée. Issei also promises Rias that he's her pawn, he promises to be the Strongest Pawn, and to defeat her. Rias says she'll also defeat Issei and they both swear to each other and shake hands. Then they continue with their date.

Why are you mad? I'm agreeing with you. Kiba trained so hard that his BxB gives him a boost of speed that make him almost as fast as a Heavenly Dragon. It makes sense after all he is training and trying to get stronger. And no matter how big the power up is, it makes sense as long as the character trains.

Spoiler for Life 4:

Spoiler for Middle Game:

Middle Game:

Rias' plan was to catch Ravel off guard where they managed to defeat 2 of Issei's members already. Bc of Roygun's experience and rank, she's a threat in the late game, but now she's gone, they'll now need a new strategy. Kiba understands that both Kings have similar styles and that Rias had Gasper counter and destroy Elmen's bats ending her scouting. Suddenly they see Church Trio riding on the Dragon King Fafnir Chariot with Panties inside Fafnir’s mouth. The panties inside his mouth are playing a song sung by Issei that the lyrics were written by Vidar and Apollon composed the music. Kiba is stunned and Rias reveals that the Gremory has a new program with the Church Trio as underwear models. She assumes that Issei will try to take the initiative and orders all members to leave their base. She says to protect Valerie while everyone now does their own thing. Crom ask if he can battle Fafnir. Both sides began their battles.

The song that Fafnir played was called "Fat Times ※Mothership Theme Song"
Lyrics: Vidar
Composer: Apollon
Singer: Issei Hyoudou

Asia vs Crom:
Crom rushes towards Fafnir and Asia tells Xenovia and Irina to let her and Fafnir handle Crom. Xenovia understands her determination and tells Irina they're goal is to reduce Rias' numbers as the Trio and Panties cant win against the Evil Dragon, so Asia will use herself as bait. Crom lets the 2 escape, he tells Asia that he respects her bravery and remembers Rias saying that Rias, Akeno, Koneko, Gasper, and Kiba would've shown her mercy but need to retire her in order to win. She tells Crom that to defeat Asia, he has to defeat Fafnir. Fafnir leaves the chariot and dons a strange armor saying he'll protect Asia. Both Fafnir and Crom declared their names to each other as they begin to fight.

Rose & Elmen vs Akeno & Valerie:
Rose and Elme were flying around where they discover the 2 and Akeno says that their goal is Valerie. If they can't beat Valerie the worst case was they seal her powers. Since there are no Phoenix tears, they can't afford to lose her. Rose uses Mistilteinn to attack Akeno, so she transforms into her FA form with 8 wings and no longer needs the bracelet. Elemen drank Issei and Ravel's blood. Akeno says Rose's magic power is difficult to resist and that she's her husband's Rook, but she's Rias' Queen. Akeno then takes out a Ghost mask that Rose senses is dangerous, she then summons 2 Ghost of Japanese Myth saying that her good interactions with Suzaku have increased the power in her mother's blood. Akeno's mom was easily approached by Ghost, so Akeno can control Ghost and Imps. Under restrictions of the RG, summoning's are limited based on their power which is why she has 2 Ghost and Issei's team has Fafnir which Rose didnt know about her contract with the Ghost. Both start attacking each other to test their powers, where Rose sees Elmen summons a Sliver Motorized Knight(Mech) to help her fight Akeno and the Ghost.

Ravel vs Koneko:
Issei and Ravel are flying together where they saw Koneko waiting before the fountain. A friend's showdown, Ravel launched an attack from her huge fire wings and Koneko with 3 tails attacked Ravel, but she quickly healed. Ravel and Koneko both said that the other has improved.

Ouryuu vs Lint:
Ouryuu plans on assisting the Trio after defeating Lint who is revealed to be a Joker, so she can't be underestimated. Ouryuu notices that Roygun used a Time Bomb effect of Crack on Lint that not even the Holy Grail could fully heal at this moment. Lint activates her BxB "Purple Inflammation of Love Bully Angel" which summons 3 Angels (2 Male 1 Female) that represents Siegfried, Freed, and Lint. Ouryuu judges the situation and manipulates the earth to block all 3 angels, thinking about being unable to save her, Ouryuu plans on not to fall behind from the previous Ouryuu and accelerated his fist into Lint retiring her. He avenged Bova and Roygun's power is really power. He smiles and says that though he lost at least she didn't win.

Asia vs Crom Part 2:
Crom's flames, fist, and fangs cant break Asia's BxB which is speed healing Fafnir. Asia then gives Fafnir her panties which he then summons a ladder from his mouth summon 500+ little Fafnir Mechs. Crom burns them all instantly but Fafnir using all of his power to bite and break Crom's left wrist while protecting Asia. Asia tries to heal Fafnir and she tells Crom that she'll fight him as Issei's wife. Crom respects her courage and love for Issei, retires her. He's proud to fight both of them and leaves looking at his broken wrist.

Spoiler for Power within Force::

Power within Force:

When Xenovia was training she was praised for her talent, but couldn't catch up to her predecessors. She always wonder if she could catch up to them. When she first meet Strada, his presence was unforgettable and Strada didnt expect her to be a cute girl. She felt he was out of her reach and now he's in front of her in his prime age of 50. Xenovia wearing Dragonar was not fatally wounded by Holy Fist but she's seriously injured. Although she has 2 swords and Avalon to heal herself, she can't regain lost stamina, and Irina who's with her cant heal like her so she cant afford to get hit. Strada asked them to show him what the Church has taught them. Xenovia asked what would they need to reach him, he says his one of the Strongest humans in history and that he's the Embodiment of Power and the Upper limit of mankind without a SG. So Xenovia must defeat him to be the true successor of Durandal. Ouryuu arrives to help and all 3 target towards Strada's fingers on his left hand. But its taking a long time to damage them, but they managed to break one of them, but will take a long time to damage another one. Ouryuu managed to break his left ring finger, but Strada destroyed Xenovia's Dragonar in a counter attack. Xenovia used Cross Crisis, Irina created numerous light bombs and Ouryuu did a heavy kick towards Strada which sent him flying.

An announcement was made saying that Elmen and Valerie have been retired. They wonder what the situation is on the battlefield and Ouryuu tells Xenovia to retreat quickly but was then punched. The 3 looked and saw Strada has returned but Durandal 2 was broken. Ravel said that Strada used that Sword to defeat numerous opponents as well as fought against Vali and Arthur's Collbrande. Despite Durandal 2 and his fingers are broken, Strada shows a fearless smile and makes a clenched fist despite his injured fingers, the destructive power hasnt decreased at all and his body produces an even stronger aura. He tells them that the real battle starts now and that even with a broken sword, his punch cant be stopped and the embodiment of power cant be stopped. Ouryuu swallows his mouth and asked what do they do now? Xenovia thinks "Will I be able to become like him??"

You're trying to say that people training to get stronger actually succeeding in their goals, in a setting where breaking limits is a basic mechanic and the main characters have the support of multiple mythologies in their growth, is illogical.

Because you can't keep up with it.

For her substitute, either Ingvild or Rias. Or better, both.

Spoiler for Oppai Dragon vs Switch Princess:

Oppai Dragon vs Switch Princess

Issei confronts Rias at the roof of the Academy building where she is waiting for him and they are reminiscing about the past. Issei says that his battle with Kiba has caused his body to be in pain everywhere and that he realizes that Holy Swords and Dragon Slayers are truly his natural enemy. Rias says She's glad she fell in love with Issei. And tells Gasper "now". Gasper's shadow creeps up and surrounds Rias body as she goes into Balor form.

Issei says you are a female so you should know I have the advantage and he uses Pailingual on Rias, but hears a mixture of Rias and Gasper's voice. So he uses Dress Break DxD. The Darkness around Rias falls apart but suddenly attaches itself back to Rias body.

Rias says your dressbreak is useless as I have thought of a way to deal with it. As Issei thinks of a way to deal with Rias, her eyes starts to glow red and Issei immediately retreats and fly in the sky as Rias launches as massive attack of POD at that that could have defeated him.

Issei suddenly remembers what Indra said, "Do you know the difference between you and Rias? Rias Gremory is strong even without you but you do not do well without Ravel."

Issei thought of a strategy. Issei uses Dress Break DxD on Rias. Rias says It's useless but Issei took the opportunity to use his tail to attach to Rias. He uses the Breast Canon by sucking the power out of Rias breast. Rias breast energy is being sucked away and she can't focus on using her POD. Gasper cant reattach himself to Rias meaning that she has no defense at this close of range as Issei's jewels show "99". Rias chest becomes flat and Issei is in tears to see those breast flat. He uses his canons and defeats Rias and Gasper. The audience cheers for Issei and Ddraig flies towards Issei having being injured everywhere, one of his hands are broken, and his wings are filled with holes. Issei says he won, Ddraig says there was no victory against the Strongest Evil Dragon but it was fun. Issei and Ddraig high-five and declared themselves the Strongest.

Eh, not really. Her opening move are alright but on the other hand Rias was force to give away her position as well to Kiba, Lint and Strada, not to mention that even in the 4 vs 1, Roygun to put a "clock bomb" on Lint that would've retired her anyway. As king Rias didn't need to give away her position. She could've just like Strada and Lint take care of Roygun.

Again it was a good idea on Rias part but don't you think Ishibumi could've written the same thing but the opposite since Ravel and Rias have similar tactics. Rias could've sent Kiba and Strada as scouts like she did against Vali's team in the goal to make Issei burn up as much of his stamina and time limit. Rosswiesse traps them in a barrier and Issei DxD, Grayfia, Xenovia, Asia and Roygun wipes both of them out. Gasper's bats are destroyed by Elmenhilde (after drinking Issei's blood).

The thing Ishibumi needed a way to reduce Issei's team since they outnumber Rias team and the best way he could think of doing so was to make Rias have a tactical outplay on Ravel. Which doesn't make sense to me.

Ravel is someone who match wits with Rudiger of all people and you're telling me she couldn't predict Rias would create a simple trap like that? Especially since Ravel is aware of Koneko's senjustsu ability to detect the position people?

Nah. I prefer the power mechanics of DxD that according to you the character only needs to train that he will improve as much as he wants/needs and any kind of power up can be justified by the phrase "he is training so he is improving".

Ise thinks, but gave up understanding the sentence then lost consciences Spoiler for Life 1: Life 1: The Debut of the New Devil (Ingvild) Issei wakes up from his dream and thinks that he was marrying more than 12 people, but cant think of anyone. 4:30 in the morning, so Rias tells Issei time for morning exercises. Issei x Rias kiss than left to do morning training. Issei, Elmen, Nakiri, Bova, Ravel, Ingvild are doing a marathon. Church Trip, Rose, and Roygun has their own dedicated space. Its hard for Elmen to train during the day, but Ingvild is fine bc she use to run around the beach. Its an increible sightseeing Ravel and Elmen training are laughing together as they train In the park where many things happen, Issei is helping Bova do 500 push ups. Nakiri mentions that the previous Ouryuu, could’ve been the strongest one in history. Asia arrives to bring water and talks about the past. Issei and Ravel discuss copyright fees earned from Oppai Dragon, and they used it to buy a mountain forest. Before the RG, they need to focus on Ingvild's first time working as a devil. In Issei's office, they're seeing Ingvild work for the first time. He remembers when he at first he couldnt transfer with Magic Circles. Ravel has a headache because Ingvild has too much magical power to control, so theres a high chance the transfer could explode. This is proof of her power as a descendent of the Old Maou Leviathan, so Issei decides to accompany her Lavina, Kiryuu and Mil-tan summons Ingvild. Lavinia says that her students learn very quickly. Kiryuu is using magic to make love horiscopes to swindle money, and Mil-tan is obsess with flying in the air. Someone summons Ingvild to help him move into his new apartment and that person is Vali. Vali summoned them because Issei's peerage, Vidar, and his own team recommended him to help him his move stuff to his new apartment in Kuoh Town. Slashdog team arrives and they start making Yakisoba noodles Le Fay came to help with the move, but Kuroka is sleeping at Issei's house. Vali is interested ing Ingvild and the new Longinus because both of them are similar to each other, as they possess the possibility of overwhelming power beyond normal devils and says that all of this is based on how she is guided. He asked if Issei will use her in the RG as he would like to discuss it and he's looking forward to fighting against the 1st Gen Wukong. Vali asked if Issei will be merciless against Rias, and he says he will to live up to his companions. Minagawa yells at them to stop talking and help move. After the move, Vali gives Ingvild a White Dragon plushie as payment for the work. They return to the office and Asia is interested with the plushie. Ravel pulls Issei to discuss Oppai Dragon work. Issei sighs at all the work for school, devil, DxD missions, Oppai Dragon, and the RG, as the RDE. Spoiler for Life 2: Life 2: International Rating Game Conference: On a large outdoor stage, Oppai Dragon and Darkness Knight Fang are fighting against Evil Dragon General Bavo and the new enemy Marshal of Phoenix(Riser). Switch Princess arrives to help defeat Riser. Backstage Issei and Kiba discuss about how Riser isnt that popular with kids and Akeno has been singing the Oppai Dragon song with children. Issei returns home to Rias, Koneko, and Akeno. Kiba promises to defeat Issei. Ravel gives Issei a special fan letter that was sent by a Grim Reaper of Hades, because of the Mysterious Devils and Nyx, they're alarmed, but there is nothing unusual about its contents: "I am very interested in Oppai Dragon, every time I see it, I feel it in my heart. I have a mother but no father. Can you be my chichi (father) if you can?" Grim Reaper. Issei is touched by the letter, Ravel says though his position is complicated, if Oppai Dragon can save a child thats a good thing. Issei immediate writes a reply in his spare time In the afternoon, Sairaorg's team arrives and he praises Issei for the letter. Sairaorg vs Shooting Star and Indra vs Mahabali. Issei wants to join in helping Sairaorg prepare, but Sairaorg stops him saying that opponents shouldn't participate in team meetings. Issei says that they're comrades in arms. Rias and Riser join and Riser says that Shooting Star has devils that arent High-class but arent recognized by the government while Rias says that they have wizards whose generations of generations have mutated in ability. Also Shooting Star has unlocked his SG a few years ago and is able to master its abilties. Sairaorg talks about Ruval and how his team has Gods and Longinus. Riser says Ruval's not using his own peerage, and they discuss Unknown Dictator's abilities. Sairaorg says that he wouldn't be able to fight his own woman. Issei says he wont hold back and Rias blushes and says that if something like this would affect their marriage, then she'll be very strict. Sairaorg wants to have a revenge match against Issei, Issei agrees and says that whether a god or his fiancée, he'll win. Riser tells Sairaorg he still has him, but Ravel teases him saying that everyone is ignoring him, to which everyone laughs. Rias and Issei teams (Minus Crom and Bina) watch Indra vs Mahabali. The rules are Defeat the King and win. There are no special rules. Indra's team has the 4 Heavenly Kings and his son Arjuna. Mahabali has a team of Asuras. Mahabali has 6 arms each holding a weapon, while Indra summons his own weapons at attacks with lightning from the sky which shakes the space. Akeno says that his lightning is a different level compared to hers and her fathers. Issei is shocked, but Ddraig tells him he defeated Typhon, Vidar, and Nyx, so have more confidence. At the end of the battle, Mahabali's team have been severely strucked by lightning and Indra's face is shown to be ecstatic of the fight. Indra complements Mahabali and he replies its not a bad thing being complemented by an enemy. Ravel says they should prepare. Spoiler for Fan: Fan: In the RG player village, inside BSoDDK's hotel room, Balberith is watching Chichiryutei Oppai Dragon. Though he has the powers of a Super Devil, he has the spirit of a child and is in search of his father, he discovered fatherhood (misunderstanding that breast[chichi] = father[chichi]). While investigating Issei, he watched Oppai Dragon show everyday and sang the song. Gressil who is 2m tall with black hair and Sonneillon who is short with dark blue hair tells Balbeirth to take a walk which he refuses. He's told that he shouldn't watch TV all day and to look at his opponent, which he replies give it to the Grim Reaper. Zeno is overwhelmed because all of them have the spirits of children and are extremely powerful. Verine enters and gives Balberith a ticket to an Oppai Dragon show. Verine is relative mature but is still sort of childish, Zeno doesnt know how to report any of this to Hades. For Balberith who was born a short while ago doesn't understand justice and evil, but he wants to be Oppai Dragon. So he begins his education into "Chichiryutei Oppai Dragon"

Darksider555 Bringer of Darkness Join Date: Aug 2016	Spoiler for Life 3: Life 3: Before the Final Battle Before the day for their joint training session on the mountains, Akeno and Koneko both want to spend time with their husband as Akeno doesnt get to spend much time with Issei and Koneko kisses Issei and is sad bc she will be going on the 2nd Year trip to Kyoto so they wont be able to be together for a while. Bc of the RG, Akeno's feeling because fighting with her husband makes her sad and her S and M elements are complicating her feelings. Issei says that he'll defeat them, but for now he'll spoil them. All of his other wives(Except Kuroka) arrived cockblocking Issei, so they all slept on the same bed....until Xenovia kicked Issei off of it again. Next day, they arrive at their training camp, Issei, Ouryuu, and Bova went mountain climbing, Xenovia and Irinia trained with each other, Roygun with Bina, and Rose, Asia, Elmen, Ravel, and Ingvild study magic together. Ingvild with little effort is very talented, but there are some concerns. Her power is unstable and to use her in the RG requires a lot of Pieces as she would take up 7 Pawns with the fact that her powers have been sealed and she hasnt trained with her SG meaning she could limit Issei, Bova, and Ouryuu as well as recording her singing is not allowed in the RG. Ingvild also has the powers of the Leviathan clan's "Sea Serpent Dragon Tail" which allows her to flood large numbers of uninhabited cities and she may also transform into a Snake-shaped Dragon. She sometimes unconsciously uses it, which forms a water dragon. Issei decides not to use Ingvild against Rias, and after agreeing to it, she falls asleep as a symptom of her sleep sickness, she falls asleep at school and at work. Everyone continues training for 3 days, Issei has been training to stay in DxD for as long as possible as well as exploring more inside of his SG. After training everyone watches Sairaorg vs Shooting Star RG, the field is a sea surface with many islands with the beginning of the match shows a cannon fire towards an island for Shooting Star. The attacked retired a Bishop and Pawn of Sairaorg. Sairaorg deliberately flies to the air to provoke them to attack him. Shooting Star's Rook is a low-level Devil, Bishop's technique was praised by Rose, and his Knight is super-fast. Roygun says that her connections revealed that all of his members have been discovered by Shooting Star by "There is delicious food there" and invited them to the Azazel Cup. Shooting Star is revealed to be a 30 year old Magician with Devils also as his ancestor. He possess Devil's blood, but its very thin which is how he got his Longinus. Shooting Star and Sairaorg are fighting each other on a island where their attacks are destroying a small island in the distance, Sairaorg feels that he's not using BxB. Shooting Star says that he has no talent and without this sword he'd fail. Sairaorg relates to him saying they're the same as he didnt inherit the POD, so he uses BtB and tells him to use his Longinus to defeat his. They fight like when Sairaorg fought Issei, and Sairaorg tells him no matter what, they cant change all the loses he faced in the Preliminaries, Shooting Star says they dont care about that as they'll keep moving forward step by step. Ravel says that Shooting Star's team finished eating just before the RG, so they all start collapsing and Shooting Star cant beat Sairaorg in a physical contest. Sairaorg punches Shooting Star which knocks him to the ground. They talk about being acknowedged by Oppai Dragon and Shooting Star satisfied surrenders. Issei excited with the RG and his date with Rias enters the bath where he meets a sliver haired girl who looks younger than 20yrs old Grayfia. She points her mask back on and says she knows about his date with Rias. Her participating in the RG is a secret that the Gremories dont even know until her face was revealed during Dulio's match. She's only here to make Issei become a Maou. Though he isnt interested in politics, he imagined Ingvild who is a descendent of Leviathan would be troublesome. Issei asked why does she want him to be Maou, she says that he has supported children, saved the UW numerous times, and has earned the acknowledgement of the old devils, also her younger brother will need to take on the task of the next generation, so he should stand up and face them. Issei sees her face that shows she's determined to make him Maou, but also sees unstableness. He remembers Sirzechs telling him to become a Maou before leaving and telling him to be there for Grayfia as she's lonely. Also that Grayfia is clinging to those words which is the reason why she’s so focus on making him Maou.. Issei says he'll fulfill Sirzechs' request to be there for Rias, Grayfia, and Millicus. Grayfia becomes shocked when he mentioned Millicus, Issei says that even if he wanted to be Maou, I should be with his family. He tells her that since Sirzechs left Millicus must also be lonely. Grayfia shocked and speechless leaves the bath. The Church Trio arrives and a misunderstanding occurs until Ravel diffuses it. Issei and Ravel later discuss that they've never seen Grayfia like this before, and that she needed to face this and they should tell Lord Gremory. Ravel says he's become more king like and she'll support him as his manager. Issei and Rias go on a date where they travel to Tokyo by train. They talk about how Issei sacrificed his left arm become a Dragon's arm to save her from her marriage ceremony and now he's a full Dragon. Though Issei is a humanoid Dragon reincarnated, revived by the 2 Dragon Gods, and has Dragon Deification, his soul is the same. Also that he'll knock down a God, as well as his master, girlfriend and fiancée. Issei also promises Rias that he's her pawn, he promises to be the Strongest Pawn, and to defeat her. Rias says she'll also defeat Issei and they both swear to each other and shake hands. Then they continue with their date.

Ouryuu filled with anger says he'll avenge Momiji, his older sister of 3 years. Telos Karma is the reason why she's gone, Mitsuya says that "Kaede" chose to stay there to guard there as it is a mission and "that's if she hersellf wishes to return". Issei's parent defuses the situation as they left the room and Issei's team leaves for the RG. (Slashdog 3 spoiler: Momiji Nakiri is the original owner of Telos Karma.

Darksider555 Bringer of Darkness Join Date: Aug 2016	Spoiler for Life 4: Life 4: Game Starts At the beginning of the RG, both sides shake hands. Then they get transported to their bases. The location of the RG is a replica version of Kuoh Town. Issei's base is his house but there's nothing inside, and Rias' is the High School. Issei's team have the strategy meeting, where their 3 main battles will be Balor Princess, Strada, and Crom. Issei says that even Bina can hardly cope with the 3 of them. Balor Princess is beyond Maou and its amazing she was able to fight 80% Fenrir. The problem is that even they attack Issei, he could only handle 2 of them as Ddraig has a time limit and even if Issei's a god, he cant fight all 3 of them at once. There's also the 2 other Longinus and any trump cards they may have. They decided to focus on Rias and avoid Crom and Strada. Crom is unwilling to use Promotion. As well as focus on Valerie as she's their healer. The most important thing in the game is Issei. With the meeting almost over, Ravel sends Roygun, Bova, and Elmen to scout. They say to fight Balor, try to make her consume as much physical strength of Rias and Gasper and avoid the range of the monsters. Suddenly as they were about to move the ground vibrates. They rush outside and hear that a Pawn of theirs has retired. They see Roygun in the air as well as a 3-eyed beast, a purple battlefield, a 6-winged angel, and Kiba with Strada. Bova has been retired. In the opening stage Rias personally made a surprise attack, and Rias' eyes glowed Red stopping Roygun then she gets retired as well. Issei tried to save her, but Ravel stops him saying they need to avoid losing any more people. Ravel tries to calm Issei down and the real battle starts now. Spoiler for Middle Game: Middle Game: Rias' plan was to catch Ravel off guard where they managed to defeat 2 of Issei's members already. Bc of Roygun's experience and rank, she's a threat in the late game, but now she's gone, they'll now need a new strategy. Kiba understands that both Kings have similar styles and that Rias had Gasper counter and destroy Elmen's bats ending her scouting. Suddenly they see Church Trio riding on the Dragon King Fafnir Chariot with Panties inside Fafnir’s mouth. The panties inside his mouth are playing a song sung by Issei that the lyrics were written by Vidar and Apollon composed the music. Kiba is stunned and Rias reveals that the Gremory has a new program with the Church Trio as underwear models. She assumes that Issei will try to take the initiative and orders all members to leave their base. She says to protect Valerie while everyone now does their own thing. Crom ask if he can battle Fafnir. Both sides began their battles. The song that Fafnir played was called "Fat Times ※Mothership Theme Song" Lyrics: Vidar Composer: Apollon Singer: Issei Hyoudou Asia vs Crom: Crom rushes towards Fafnir and Asia tells Xenovia and Irina to let her and Fafnir handle Crom. Xenovia understands her determination and tells Irina they're goal is to reduce Rias' numbers as the Trio and Panties cant win against the Evil Dragon, so Asia will use herself as bait. Crom lets the 2 escape, he tells Asia that he respects her bravery and remembers Rias saying that Rias, Akeno, Koneko, Gasper, and Kiba would've shown her mercy but need to retire her in order to win. She tells Crom that to defeat Asia, he has to defeat Fafnir. Fafnir leaves the chariot and dons a strange armor saying he'll protect Asia. Both Fafnir and Crom declared their names to each other as they begin to fight. Rose & Elmen vs Akeno & Valerie: Rose and Elme were flying around where they discover the 2 and Akeno says that their goal is Valerie. If they can't beat Valerie the worst case was they seal her powers. Since there are no Phoenix tears, they can't afford to lose her. Rose uses Mistilteinn to attack Akeno, so she transforms into her FA form with 8 wings and no longer needs the bracelet. Elemen drank Issei and Ravel's blood. Akeno says Rose's magic power is difficult to resist and that she's her husband's Rook, but she's Rias' Queen. Akeno then takes out a Ghost mask that Rose senses is dangerous, she then summons 2 Ghost of Japanese Myth saying that her good interactions with Suzaku have increased the power in her mother's blood. Akeno's mom was easily approached by Ghost, so Akeno can control Ghost and Imps. Under restrictions of the RG, summoning's are limited based on their power which is why she has 2 Ghost and Issei's team has Fafnir which Rose didnt know about her contract with the Ghost. Both start attacking each other to test their powers, where Rose sees Elmen summons a Sliver Motorized Knight(Mech) to help her fight Akeno and the Ghost. Ravel vs Koneko: Issei and Ravel are flying together where they saw Koneko waiting before the fountain. A friend's showdown, Ravel launched an attack from her huge fire wings and Koneko with 3 tails attacked Ravel, but she quickly healed. Ravel and Koneko both said that the other has improved. Ouryuu vs Lint: Ouryuu plans on assisting the Trio after defeating Lint who is revealed to be a Joker, so she can't be underestimated. Ouryuu notices that Roygun used a Time Bomb effect of Crack on Lint that not even the Holy Grail could fully heal at this moment. Lint activates her BxB "Purple Inflammation of Love Bully Angel" which summons 3 Angels (2 Male 1 Female) that represents Siegfried, Freed, and Lint. Ouryuu judges the situation and manipulates the earth to block all 3 angels, thinking about being unable to save her, Ouryuu plans on not to fall behind from the previous Ouryuu and accelerated his fist into Lint retiring her. He avenged Bova and Roygun's power is really power. He smiles and says that though he lost at least she didn't win. Asia vs Crom Part 2: Crom's flames, fist, and fangs cant break Asia's BxB which is speed healing Fafnir. Asia then gives Fafnir her panties which he then summons a ladder from his mouth summon 500+ little Fafnir Mechs. Crom burns them all instantly but Fafnir using all of his power to bite and break Crom's left wrist while protecting Asia. Asia tries to heal Fafnir and she tells Crom that she'll fight him as Issei's wife. Crom respects her courage and love for Issei, retires her. He's proud to fight both of them and leaves looking at his broken wrist. Spoiler for Sister: Sister: Rias vs Grayfia Rias (Balor form) and Kiba approaches Issei and Grayfia. Rias launches an attack at Grayfia while Kiba fights Issei. She summons a black beast to which Grayfia dodges and that have a beam clash. Because Rias strength is above Maou class, she overpowers Grayfia's attack. Rias is trying to extend the state of mass of POD that she acquired from her training, while also taking into account that she cannot stay in Balor form for long as she has a time limit and it would be fatal if she stays in it too long. Grayfia's dodges it and that go at it. As they are fighting Rias remembers that during their stay together, Grayfia's mood has been uneasy ever since she joined the tournament. She knows that Grayfia has been feeling lonely ever since Sirzech was gone. As this goes on Rias POD overwhelmes Grayfia demonic power but stops her attack using time stop. Rias says that Issei is fighting hard for his own dream. After several defeats and battles, he found something and became a high Class devil. Grayfia says "I'm just... I'm just...." Grayfia sends her unstable demonic power to block Rias attack. They have another clash between demonic powers. Rias says "Please don't be imprisoned in the pain of Queen Lucifer. Maybe my parents can't replace Onii-sama but we are still a family" Grayfia's mask breaks from the clash and burst into tears. "I'm just.... I'm just..." Rias POD engulfs Grayfia and she retires. Spoiler for Life Friend VS Knight Friend: Life Friend VS Knight Friend Issei vs Kiba They arrive in a shopping center parking lot. Issei remembers when he first became a Devil, Kiba was the one who brought him to the ORC. Kiba says his goal is to surpass Issei and he'll continue to be with his friends in the future. Issei uses DxD G, so Kiba takes out his strongest sword and various Dragon Slayers and points them towards Issei. The two have spared numerous times so they're familiar with their fighting styles. Gram, Holy Demonic Swords, and his Dragon Knights are having difficulty in trying to break through the defenses of the black armor. So Kiba uses a new technique to transform the Knights to become boosters on his arms and legs to accelerate faster and superimpose as much damage as he can on Issei. Issei enduring the damage decides to transfer power into his speed which allowed him to hit Kiba. Kiba highly injured refuses to give up and tried to release a large amount of Holy Swords at the edge of Issei's foot, but he breaks the Magic Circle with Ascalon, so Kiba pours all his power into creating a Holy Sword and rushes towards Issei. He manages to damage his right shoulder, but Issei pulls the sword out and hits Kiba severely damaging him. Since they know their styles so well, he hates losing to guys like Issei outside from Issei. Issei leaves the building where he encounters Crom and notices his left hand is broken. Ddraig laughs and says he was injured by the Great Dragon King. Crom responds that he did eat the Son of Lucifer. Ddraig gets materialized and asked if he'll fight him like that, and Crom said he should be honored that this is the best state to be in against him. They declare their names and Crom says this era is very good, the Azazel Cup is fun, and today's a good day as he hears 2 Dragons called his name today. Issei then leaves towards Rias Spoiler for Power within Force:: Power within Force: When Xenovia was training she was praised for her talent, but couldn't catch up to her predecessors. She always wonder if she could catch up to them. When she first meet Strada, his presence was unforgettable and Strada didnt expect her to be a cute girl. She felt he was out of her reach and now he's in front of her in his prime age of 50. Xenovia wearing Dragonar was not fatally wounded by Holy Fist but she's seriously injured. Although she has 2 swords and Avalon to heal herself, she can't regain lost stamina, and Irina who's with her cant heal like her so she cant afford to get hit. Strada asked them to show him what the Church has taught them. Xenovia asked what would they need to reach him, he says his one of the Strongest humans in history and that he's the Embodiment of Power and the Upper limit of mankind without a SG. So Xenovia must defeat him to be the true successor of Durandal. Ouryuu arrives to help and all 3 target towards Strada's fingers on his left hand. But its taking a long time to damage them, but they managed to break one of them, but will take a long time to damage another one. Ouryuu managed to break his left ring finger, but Strada destroyed Xenovia's Dragonar in a counter attack. Xenovia used Cross Crisis, Irina created numerous light bombs and Ouryuu did a heavy kick towards Strada which sent him flying. An announcement was made saying that Elmen and Valerie have been retired. They wonder what the situation is on the battlefield and Ouryuu tells Xenovia to retreat quickly but was then punched. The 3 looked and saw Strada has returned but Durandal 2 was broken. Ravel said that Strada used that Sword to defeat numerous opponents as well as fought against Vali and Arthur's Collbrande. Despite Durandal 2 and his fingers are broken, Strada shows a fearless smile and makes a clenched fist despite his injured fingers, the destructive power hasnt decreased at all and his body produces an even stronger aura. He tells them that the real battle starts now and that even with a broken sword, his punch cant be stopped and the embodiment of power cant be stopped. Ouryuu swallows his mouth and asked what do they do now? Xenovia thinks "Will I be able to become like him??"

Darksider555 Bringer of Darkness Join Date: Aug 2016	Spoiler for Oppai Dragon vs Switch Princess: Oppai Dragon vs Switch Princess Issei confronts Rias at the roof of the Academy building where she is waiting for him and they are reminiscing about the past. Issei says that his battle with Kiba has caused his body to be in pain everywhere and that he realizes that Holy Swords and Dragon Slayers are truly his natural enemy. Rias says She's glad she fell in love with Issei. And tells Gasper "now". Gasper's shadow creeps up and surrounds Rias body as she goes into Balor form. Issei says you are a female so you should know I have the advantage and he uses Pailingual on Rias, but hears a mixture of Rias and Gasper's voice. So he uses Dress Break DxD. The Darkness around Rias falls apart but suddenly attaches itself back to Rias body. Rias says your dressbreak is useless as I have thought of a way to deal with it. As Issei thinks of a way to deal with Rias, her eyes starts to glow red and Issei immediately retreats and fly in the sky as Rias launches as massive attack of POD at that that could have defeated him. Issei suddenly remembers what Indra said, "Do you know the difference between you and Rias? Rias Gremory is strong even without you but you do not do well without Ravel." Issei thought of a strategy. Issei uses Dress Break DxD on Rias. Rias says It's useless but Issei took the opportunity to use his tail to attach to Rias. He uses the Breast Canon by sucking the power out of Rias breast. Rias breast energy is being sucked away and she can't focus on using her POD. Gasper cant reattach himself to Rias meaning that she has no defense at this close of range as Issei's jewels show "99". Rias chest becomes flat and Issei is in tears to see those breast flat. He uses his canons and defeats Rias and Gasper. The audience cheers for Issei and Ddraig flies towards Issei having being injured everywhere, one of his hands are broken, and his wings are filled with holes. Issei says he won, Ddraig says there was no victory against the Strongest Evil Dragon but it was fun. Issei and Ddraig high-five and declared themselves the Strongest. Spoiler for Durandal: Durandal: They discuss all those that have been retired in the RG. Xenovia mentions that they couldnt retire Crom and Strada. Strada talks to them about being young and despite everything about him, his life is limited and he'll live at best another 30 years. Irina jokes that he'd be over a 100 by then. Spoiler for Parents 2: Parents 2: Issei and RIas' parent congratulate each other for how they children did. Though Issei's dad apologizes for Issei retiring Rias, Lord Gremory says that in the world, sometimes people win and lose. Issei's mom is worry that her son and daughters will get hurt but accepts their bravery as she saw with Asia. Grayfia walks up and sees Millicus crying. He knew she was in the Azazel Cup as Bina from the beginning, but never told her. Grayfia sees the video of the RG and realizes how cruel of a mother she's been. Grayfia realizes she's been focusing too much on what Sirzechs said to Issei before leaving and ignoring Millicius. He isnt angry at Grayfia and says the best thing is to be a hero. Grayfia cries and hugs him decided to be there more for him. Spoiler for New Life: Victory or Defeat: New Life: Victory or Defeat Few days after the RG, both teams are celebrating at Issei’s house. Rias’ team congratulates Issei on winning and he’ll act for them for now on. Issei express concerns over Cao Cao’s new heroes. Kiba asked Strada what he would do now, he says he stay in Kuoh until the end of the tournament because of the relentless atmosphere. Crom and Ddraig talk about really strong enemies who they’ll fight. A few days after, the 4th match began with Diehauser’s team winning. Many members of BSoDDK were struggling and Balberith was the most eye-catching player in their team, but they lost when Diehauser retired Zeno showing that power isn’t everything in a RG. While watching the RG, Koneko notices that Balberith’s attack was similar to a move of Oppai Dragon with Irina agreeing, as its strange since that was an original attack by Issei. Issei says that Grayfia probably wont be participating anymore and Lord Gremory and Rias knows that she’s been depressed since Sirzechs left. Issei knows that Ajuka is considering sending her to fight 666 with Sirzechs despite only a handful of people knowing the Isolation Barrier Field commucations. So they may lose a powerful queen. Issei is also worried because of the 2nd Year class trip which means Koneko, Gasper, Ouryuu, Ingvild, Ravel will be going to Kyoto as well as Issei will be going there as part as a show for Oppai Dragon. Thinking about Yasaka, sightseeing and how much Rias loves Kyoto, he hopes the trip with be safe. Spoiler for Gods of Hell: Gods of Hell In the Rizevim Institute, the Gods of Hell are holding a meeting, members mentioned are Hades, Tartarus and Angra Mainyu, as Erebus and 2 Maou class devils are missing. They used Lilith to create many mysterious Devils and Artificial Super Devils which they sent those to Azazel Cup. But with Nyx captured and BSoDDK eliminated is not considered much of a problem. Their main problem was Balberith was has been obsessed with the Oppai Dragon TV show to the point he changed his fighting style as he keeps studying from the show. Hades already considered the fact that the Super Devils may be defeat because of their childish mental age, so further research is required. Hades shows Verrine something interesting and displays to her on a monitor a silvery humanoid. It is one of those mechanical life forms form Azazel and Ajuka’s Intel, but the problem is that they arrived much early than what was record. He wonders is Azazel and Ajuka not know of this deviation. He asked to gather more information as they don’t have enough information which means that this could lead to DxD and the Gods of Hell’s destruction. Hades wonders how will the Devils and Angels will respond to this.

Lord Kai Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2018	Just caught up with the spoilers and read some very interesting events. Poor Bova, Ishibumi needs to give the guy a break. Also while I know dress break was useless against Rias but why didn't he use that move to read her mind through her breast.
