High School DxD BorN - Overall Series Impressions & Total Series Rating
This thread is to be used for discussing the entire episodes of High School DxD BorN ... your thoughts about the show, overall impressions, expectations and hopes about Blu-Ray/DVD-exclusive footage etc.
A few subjects you might want to ramble on about:
And so on. The poll represents your total series rating. In other words, how you would rate all the episodes combined (1-10)? If you'd rather rate the whole series by technical/artistic merits, you can do so. An example: Animation Quality: 1-10 Voice Actors: 1-10 Script: 1-10 Soundtrack: 1-10 Editing: 1-10 Enjoyment: 1-10 Emotional Involvement: 1-10 Average = Total Series Rating Or a combination of the two. Or your general gut feeling. Feel free to discuss and more importantly, have fun |

This series was just awful and was really painful for me to watch - especially last 3 filler episodes. Overall Born deserves nothing more that 4/10. I just want to forget that it existed and most probably this end for HDxD anime for me. Even if they create 4th season, IMO it will be just like Rosario 2 - fanservice anime only show that have almost nothing common with source material.

The truth is overall its below average. They did some things well but most things poorly. As far as adaptation wise yea this is miserable. Animation has never been an issue for me but hey thats me.
Rossweise's character was absolutely dreadful this season. vol 7 was completely lost in the fusion and vol 5 was cut up nicely at the end. I am looking forward to a s4 IF it happens because it would be an incredible season if done right. However if they didnt make another i would understand it.

Honestly did anything they say end up not being a lie they say they'll give more focus to characters and all we get is her crying in a corner all season matter of fact them butchering most of volume 7 means she most likely got less scenes that if they did this season without changeing half of it and then adding filler.

Overall, I vote this as a 5. The only reason I give that is that they did do small parts of it really well and the animation overall was the same quality as the previous seasons which I did like. If I judged it base solely on the story line, then it would rate a 2 or less, but I did upgrade it because of certain parts that I did like.
Some examples is where Akeno shows up in the bed in the first episode, the time when Rias and Isse confront Kouroka in the 3rd episode, and the sequence on the practicing of the 3 legged race. There are a couple of others that were even shorter, but that was the ones that stood out the most. The worst part was how the handled the whole Loki thing. It was more like they were trying to cash in on the Marvel Movies use of Loki, then actually writing him in for good story telling. As for Rossweisse, I totally agree with how horribly they used her in this season. I was completely stupid. Probably meant to be comic relief, it was just plain annoying instead. Also, the score for the episode could have been really good, but the use of the music was at best seriously flawed and at worse horrid. The fight scenes were not in my opinion used correctly at all nor did it have any of the fun as in previous seasons. It was tiring and lacked any spirit. |

Overall thoughts on the season.
Not really the best season, the mix and mash wasn't really the best, and the cutting of the scenes did ruin what i would feel is good. So here goes. Pros:
Cons:
Neutral:
Questions:
All in conclusion, there was few issues with the middle part, but the ending part leaves much to be desired. I feel that this season slaughtered too many character defining moments, personally i kinda hoped that they used the curse on Akeno instead of how they handled it like a minor plot. The animation wasn't so good like the previous two seasons but still acceptable. Now hopefully the short specials can soothe the anger for us. |

Gotta say, it's a step down from the previous season. While BorN has some great moment like the Juggernaut Drive, I'm disappointed that it didn't handle some plot points like Akeno's resolution with her father Baraqiel, as well as Loki who did most of the damage early on the series but he sealed himself after Episode 10!
Good season, but not as great as the previous seasons! |

Can season 3 really be called that? Only bits and pieces of the light novel were used, while Vol.6 was the only thing close to being adapted(even that had changes). The rest was anime original, which have been only meet with questions and criticism. Also the occasional doom and gloom about a new season being shattered while pre-order sales indicate the direct opposite. This season has been a roller coaster.
