High School DxD 2012

I probably enjoyed this series more than I really should. It is a terribly generic harem series and you've probably seen all of these characters and plot devices before. However for whatever reason, I still enjoyed this series as a bit of mindless, silly fun.

Issei, our protagonist, whilst fairly generic, was at least unapologetically perverted, which I much prefer to the spineless harem lead who moans about how horrible it must be to have all these ladies fawning over him. He also does have a few moments of greatness and at least seems willing to fight for his clan.

I didn't like all of the heroines but I found Asia to be quite adorable and Rias' constant teasing of Issei to be quite fun. I also did like the idea of the demonic clan and their different class of "chess pieces" that fight for them.

Ultimately, you're not going to lose out much by not watching this series. But if you have some time to kill and fancy a silly perverted comedy anime with a few interesting ideas and some likeable characters, give it a go. A second season has been confirmed and I will probably be watching it.
