Hmm i understand, i have read the LNs but its been awhile. I dont think there was much hint about him either.

I think its good too to have these sudden plot twists (those "that escalated quicky" moments), not everything needs foreshadowing. Hopefully it would be made much cleared next episode. This guy appeared at the very end afterall, before that we were lead to believe that Freed was just a lone rogue.

Yeah, i know that things were explained more thoroughly in novel, but the studio didn't show them properly in adaptation, hence my confusion. strictly speaking, the adaptation lacks some subtlety, which i've been complaining about since episode 1
You have be complaining about everything before the series even started .
Now i hardly post since i like to save up eps but if you already made up your mind why watch the show.

Because i want to see how it ends? Because there're still things that draw me into this show? Now that i've already on eps 4, it seems like a waste to just drop this show. Mind you, i'm a critical person who's hard to overlook flaws in a show, hence my constant rants.

Did Koneko get spanked too? This is important.

Here's the problem.
You said u weren't a fan of high fanservice and quite frankly we warned u that there was a ton of fanservice well ahead of time every single thing you complained about is basically what makes this series this series. If u understand whats happening then its pretty easy to figure out and sorry bro if u thought the naked apron part was retarded get off because stuff like that is what makes this series enjoyable for most of the other people. Early issei isn't fun because he's a badass he's fun because he's a perv and that's what people enjoy so stop watching or watch and don't complain to us because we're tired of it

Quality episode. I really like where the series is going so far. The appearance of this new fallen angel adds a nice twist to the end. Excited to see more.

I don't see a problem with the plot, the boss speech and reaction pretty much summed up everything nicely in typical boss (gloat) fashion. If you can't connect the dots beforehand, he basically bullet points every major event for the viewers.

The LN is not to blame with this one. Sure it isn't as smooth transition and suspense being condensed , but losing the plot at this point is really...impossible.

Anyone who doesn't understand what's going on are probably still thinking of Irina's boobs.

For some reason, Lucifer stands out as an angel, yet when I think about Beelzebub, I only remember that he is the king of flies and I think of some sea dragon for Leviathan.

Oh I loved this episode During the first 3 eps, I was worried about the lack of shower scenes (that sauna doesn't count ), and I suddenly felt a weird feeling: this series actually has a story! An ecchi series with a story! What happened to the clothes that get ripped for no reason, revealing bouncy boobies? There's no story as to why girls get their top ripped across the chest, revealing glorious boobies

But then this episode came out, and I get to enjoy boobies and story. If everyone can hear me voice right now, I am so Freed for these girls. Especially Seitokaichou, ah, spank me for I am a bad man! I saw you naked in the sauna with Rias, you have to spank me! In fact, since I sinned against you and Rias, both of you spank me at once! Heck, 2 thousand spanks isn't enough, how about we get both Vice kaichou's to spank me too, 4 THOUSAND SPANKINGS HERE I COME

And I'm sorry Asia, your butt is worth grasping, but.... RIAS' NAKED APRON IT TOO MUCH I gotta rant, but you silly camera man, why you not show Rias butt more clearer? Her hair was in the way, lousy Asia butt bias cameraman

Oh, and I love Irina/Xenovia bodysuits

lol Now, I did think that too, heck I wanted to see it, but my fun was short lived once I realized something...

Remember Koneko's role? She's the Rook, she can take a beating, so spanking Koneko is like spanking a tank, you just don't

I know what's going on, and I think highly of Irina's and all the others girls' boobs as well. How do we calculate that?

What I found interesting was that mom was totally supportive of the naked-apron for both girls. I almost expected her to join them.

The episode´s pacing was weird, if not awkward.
Everything else ok.

This made me laugh more than it probably should have.

I really enjoyed this episode again, stories getting cool and the fanservice is better. DxD <333

Issei level.

But seriously the notoriously higher screen time and animation level on breasts is above and beyond. The bounce, the texture, the lighting...

It fits DxD on more then a superficial level

I really really hope they can somehow get enough volumes to do the oppai-dragon song.

Lovely episode. We got to see a naked apron Asia, and we finally got to take a closer look at irina's oppai, after getting only a short glance at them in the OP and ep. 3's intermission pic. To top it off, we even get some nice action

Not counting humans.

That said, considering this anime loves rooting for demons and the Satan-side, I wouldn't be surprised if God was evil or dead or the servants become demons like Asia or pretty much nothing good for that side.

PS: And last time I checked, Lucifer is supposed to be a fallen angel...
If the "God" in DxD is anything like the God in the Bible, he's a wicked, mass-murdering bastard:
Drunk with Blood: God's Killings in the Bible

Spoiler for A few examples:


Long list of God's violence in the Bible

Compared to this God, Kokabiel is still meek as a lamb.
Which gets me an idea - this God would be a great choice as the last and fiercest overfiend Issei and Co. have to battle
