High School Dxd: Complete Series Collection [DVD]

I have tried to watch this on the Internet for ages now and always got to a certain episode on a site and the link was down ruining my enjoyment of the series so when I saw this was going to be sold like this I decided to grab it.Product Description:So this comes as one case which holds hold four discs inside:Two Discs = DVDsTwo discs = Blu RaysRegion Codes:DVDs = 1, 2 ,4Blu Ray = A, BLanguages = Japanese & English DubbingANIME:So the anime itself is really good I know people say its a fan-service but that just adds an element for us guys to enjoy. It's from the same creators as Ikki Tousen but add a few years and this is where they have come too so it just goes to show they are making strides in the animation industry. Anyway so we have the first complete series here and the content is superbly drawn, where the animation is really good on the eyes and you can tell it hasn't been rushed in its development.The audio is as you would expect fitting for the scene and not overdone very suave in some areas and heart pounding in others. I will say the audio sounds much better on the Blu Rays a bit of a no brainer but that's the truth. The dubbings are easy to listen too for both versions the Japanese and the English both voice overs are enjoyable to listen too and not annoying but I've found to enjoy the English version a little more as it has had some new scripts thrown in e.g. New Jokes, New humour. This was unexpected to be honest as they usually try to stick to the Japanese script, which they have but just expanded on it in slight instances.The Characters are enjoyable and not irritating and well thought out and you can come to like them not for their assets guys but for their personality and roles in the series. As expected of a fan-service anime they touch bases with small girls to stupidly large girls (Bust & Booty) for all us fantasists but I don't care leave it to your imagination to decide on that one.STORY:The story is rather twisty but not complicated to understand after the first two episodes. I am going to resist in explaining the whole story but the general summary is our protagonist Hyoudou Issei, a 2nd Year High school student who hasn't had a girlfriend all his life out of the blue finally gets a girlfriend! but then after a short time dating gets killed by her.This is where our second main character Rias Gremory shows up. where Issei is revived back to life and learns the shocking truth from her that in fact she is a Devil and now so is he. The story also expands on Issei as he learns he has a weapon inside of him called the "Sacred Gear" which evolves and gives him tremendous power.The story continues to follow Issei and Rias and the rest as they explain to issei they are locked in a three way battle against fallen angels and regular angels the only difference between the two angel types is one are angles but they have been corrupted by evil desires and the others pretty much normal angels out to fight devils.It's got the same mock up as most other animes as it follows the characters in all there going-ons at highschool and beyond and how they develop in battle and life so nothing out of the ordinary.Evaluation:Please give this show a watch if you are a fan of Anime but as stated this is fan-service heavy but still contains a very good story behind it and at the time of writing the second series is already streaming and on its way so don't fall behind everyone. The animation is amazing along with the dubbing in both English and Japanese and the characters all enjoyable with unique traits to watch and understand.Try it guys you won't be disappointed. :)

Bought this on a whim, because it popped up in my recommendations. I'm so glad I did because I laughed so much. So wrong but...

love it great price as well

There are anime's that have Plot (Fan service) and actual Plot (A well thought out story).High School DxD has both. It has an intense amount of fan service and is a very ecchi anime, but at the same time, covers itself by giving a backstory as to why it has so much fan service. The story wouldn't make sense without the fan service.High School DxD originally started off as a Manga series, so if you want a sneak peak, I highly recommend reading the manga (Which is also available on Amazon)Brief overview of the series:There is a teenage boy by the name of Issei Hyoudou who suffers from mass perversion.After a slight altercation between him and a "Fallen Angel" he becomes a Devil.His power is linked to his perversion, the more perverse he is, the stronger he gets.There's fan service, character development, fan service, fighting, oh and did I mention fan service, since there is a lot of it.That's as much as I will say as a brief description since I don't want to spoil it too much.If you enjoy fan service and want a laugh while also enjoying a well thought out story, High School DxD is a great choice.The product itself:This is the Blu-Ray version only, there is no DVD copy included. I say this since there is a special edition available which contains both.It IS region coded for Region B, so it will mainly work in the UK and Europe.Un-censored, and boy is it Un-censored. This is NOT the version that covers up certain aspects, so if you're buying this and live with someone, make sure they know about it or you may well be having an awkward conversation.

Firstly I will try to keep this review spoiler free as I can for people who have not watched this Anime or are going to be purchasing it in the near future. The product contains two Blu Ray discs which holds episodes 1-9 on disc 1 and 10-12 + OVA in disc 2. I personally like the design of the cover art and how you have the option to flip the cover around to use the second artwork which I totally like with my Blu Ray Anime. Next lets get the fan service part out the way, I can say that there is a lot and I mean a lot of fan service that the eye can see which might not be everyone cup of tea. However if you can look past this the main story is very enjoyable and humorous as it follows Issei Hyoudou who is a high school teenager and somehow manages to get into some shenanigans and then gets turned into a devil and lets say some interesting things happen...very interesting things. Overall I can say that this 12 episode anime has been very interesting and I would recommend you give it try and as stated look past the fan service and you will find a very thrilling story and that is why I have rated this 5/5.
