6. - Koneko
7. - Xenovia
8. - Irina

1) Asia is first on my list because she is the closest girl to get the secret taste of the Hyoudou family. Asia been traveling for sometime, I believe she must be the one who taught Rias and Akeno how to make European and Chinese dishes in the household. Asia had a rough life, she most likely learn a lot of cooking styles and cuisines. It has been acknowledge by Ise that Asia has something special in her cooking.

2) Akeno is said to have a maternal feel of cooking. In American terms, a comfort feeling like a Thanksgiving kind of feel. Considering that Akeno's background, she probably helped in the kitchen with her mother. Even when she became a Devil, she was a low class Devil though I am sure that Rias will ensure her royal cooks will provide Akeno a good meal. Somehow I feel that Akeno prefers to cook on her own even then. She isn't too much into tradition or into culture, so she is more tolerant to try out different style of cooking.

3) Rias is a good cook. Ise already voice that he is grateful to be alive to eat her cooking. Despite Rias saying she don't want to be pampered, she was most likely was when she was young so I feel that her Royal cooks prepared most of her meals when she was young. Rias love Japanese cultures, so she is probably the top Chef when it comes to Japanese food than Asia or Akeno. Due to her deep love for Japanese culture, I think she would struggle to trying out new style of culture food in particular when you consider the culture difference. For example, Japanese cooking usually consist of Seafood, Soy sauce, regional herbs, rice, and of course noodles while European consist of dairy, olive oil, breads, pasta, potatoes, and cattle and often time lamb. I find these differences a bit too much for Rias to adapt so quickly, but she will excel if given time.

4) Rossweisse, her cooking haven't been mentioned a lot but show signs of great interest. She hinted that she cooks the cuisine native to Valhalla, primarily most likely European. Considering the level of details and her serving Odin, her boss and God, she must have a considerable or decent level of cooking skills. She also adapts her recipes to fit the need or consideration for her eaters, in particular Ise during volume 13, life 3, part 2 she made a nutritional biscuit type of food and added sugar to allow Ise to down it easier. She may be the biggest expert when it comes to European cuisine, even more so than Kiba I believe.

5) Ravel, her skills of lunch and dinner haven't been noted so it is unknown. Her only skills that been revealed is her skills of breakfast and desserts. Well to precise, the pancakes she made during volume 13, life 4, part 4 is her only breakfast item. Still, pancakes is an old American classic and she was able to make great ones base on Ise's response to them. She shown adaptability when she made those pancakes despite the limited ingredients. She could probably make amazing Belgium Waffles. For dessert, okay, if no one knows how good she is with desserts than you have not been truly reading. Its been noted that Ravel when she was young and part of Raiser's group she would cook desserts as a passion. Sweets and desserts is most likely the hardest to cook because one must balance the level of sweetness of the cuisine and its one of the types of cuisine where you will not be let off the hook if overcooked.

6) Koneko, is kind of blank. Not much is known about her cooking. Though she is shown to try anything to elevate her standing in the harem since her body isn't at the point where Ise desires it. Knowing that, she would most likely not try to compete with Rias, Akeno, Asia, Ravel, and Rossweisse in cuisines they excel at knowing she can't surpass them. Its been known she loved snacks and tasty convenient food. If I had to pick what type of cuisine that Koneko would excel at, it would be American cuisine. Too many types of variations to count so here are links to get the full scoop.

7 and 8) Sigh, nothing to be said. They got the energy for it, but just don't see it happening.

Because i am also considering the deserts of Ravel and her royal cook training as a princess like Rias, She even can cook desserts during her brother training with natural ingredients.

And we dont know so much of Rossweisse, Issei even said that she spoke like a farm girl, when talk on the phone, we do not know how is her cook for Issei tastes yet. We need to wait.

Perfect for the baba-con within

Cause orchid seed wasn't hired to make one... too busy making Hyakka ones . Go get Total Eclipse one! Better than wasting money on a fail of a ending for a game... .

unless "she's" like mil-tan

[II Maestro]

^Please don't let Chichigami-sama turn out to be the same as Mil-tan Nyoh~! My heart won't be able to bear it if the goddess of breast is a muscle builder.

[Valky]

Off topic a little .

DxD apparently got itself an "erotic battle adventure game", lol. It's for n3ds only though.

I guess it means it's popular enough to get itself a game, I hope it will be a good sign of hope to get another season for the anime .. I wanna see volume 10 animated so bad.

[n0m@n]

Nice a game.
Btw has 3ds gotten cheaper? I will buy it if its cheaper than before.
If I remember correctly, we need to buy a Japanese 3ds to play Japanese game right?

yes unless your a pirate then flash carts can lift that restriction... still I'm not yet complacent with today's 3ds flash cart tech

[Valky]

Yeah, n3ds games are region-locked. Unlike psp or vita. Too bad though, I hope they made it for Vita/Psp too, since I don't have n3ds.

[II Maestro]

^That's right! I too don't have a nintendo 3ds. Ugh ... How I wish there's a psp game of DxD.

[Valky]

Life.1 done by n0m@n. You can read it at his blog.

[II Maestro]

There are short stories in this volume though I'm looking forward to Vali & Albion's story, Poor dragon. I wonder if Albion ends up just like Draig becoming a baby dragon because of Oppai Dragon.

[Jettskie]

Thanks for the update in your blog, n0m@n. Nice chapter. I think Albion suffers after becoming butt dragon.

Mil-tan... The deadliest Magical Girl in the universe.

[II Maestro]

Looks like Leviathan has her eyes on Mil-tan and wants to scout Mil-tan since she has a spare evil-pieces.

Milt-tan sure is awesome in many ways, He was able to fight the Khaos Brigade Magician with his fist.
