High School DxD (ハイスクールD×D)

What's up?

I'm Issei Hyodo!

My dream is to become the Harem King.

But you should know...

...most people wouldn't refer to me

as a normal high school sophomore.

That's cause I'm, like, totally a devil!

Seriously! I'm not lying!

I sorta died,

but then, a sexy devil brought me back to life.

Her name is Rias Gremory, and she's hot AF!

She made me the pawn in her chessboard devil family thing,

and I've been hangin' with her crew ever since.

Oh yeah, and the legendary

Red Dragon Emperor dwells within me. NBD.

One day, we were just about to get our sports festival on

and this creeper showed up

thinkin' he was gonna marry Asia.

Diodora Astaroth, AKA upper-class devil dickhead.

I mean, so what if he comes from a good family

and has abs that won't quit.

That guy's a bag of dirty douche water.

I was like, "Screw him!

I'm never gonna let anyone force Asia

to do anything she doesn't want to do!"

I got super pissed

and then I super kicked that twatsicle's ass.

Asia was saved, and all was awesome.

Thank you, Issei.

It's time for us to go home.

All right!

But first, I'd like to say a little prayer.

You just got rescued, what's there to pray about?

That's a secret!

Asia?

Who are you?

Dear little sister of the despicable

and fake "Devil King."

Most know me as Shalba Beelzebub.

However, who I am is the one and only

true descendant of the Great Devil Beelzebub.

Beelzebub's what?

Please, Shalba. Help me.

Just imagine it.

Both the old and current devil kings combining their strength.

Why, Shalba?

You were a fool. How dare you align yourself with me.

Sister of the impostor, Sir Zechs.

Please don't take this personally,

but I believe I shall have you die here, as well.

Of course. You were behind the death

of the Glasya-Labolas heir, too.

But why bother involving Asia in your murderous plan?

You'll suffer for what you did to her!

Asia.

Asia?

Where did you run off to?

Come on.

Let's go home.

Issei.

Please, Asia.

We were gonna win the race in the school sports festival.

We...

We still need to practice.

Issei!

Rias?

Do you know where Asia might've gone?

We need to find her fast, so we can leave.

Help me.

We can't leave without her.

She's practically family.

Oh, Issei.

Now, who would have thought

the princess of the Gremory household

had such horrible taste.

Would the red filth like to know where that girl went?

I sent her far beyond our reality.

Into the Dimensional Gap.

The exposure has surely consumed her flesh.

To put it simply, the bitch is dead.

As for you, devil, the one who calls himself "Shalba."

You made a poor decision,

and now you must pay!

Issei!

-- I, who shall awaken. -- It's starting.

The time has finally come.

I am the Heavenly Dragon

who stole the principle of domination for God.

It has always been this way.

That is correct. Always and forever.

I mock the infinite, and fret over the dream.

What the world desires.

What the world rejects.

I shall become the Red Dragon of Domination.

Has always been power.

Has always been love.

I shall drown you in the depths

of crimson purgatory.

What is that? What is that?!

His aura and power are incredible to behold!

And dangerous.

Asia!

Juggernaut Drive!

Oh, Issei.

You monster!

Divide!

He's using Vali's power?

Why must Vali always insist on standing in my way?

It's too much.

President!

Rias, please. That isn't Issei anymore.

No! You bastard!

This creature must be the Dragon of Domination!

I have no intention of dying in a place like this.

Not by your hand!

I can't move. My legs!

Gasper, you can't stop time right now, can you?

Boost!

We can't stay here, Rias! If we do, we'll die.

Come on. I think we should retreat!

I won't.

Please, Rias!

I'm sorry. We're going!

Boost!

You can't! Don't you realize I am the descendant

of a true devil king? You're a mere dragon!

Longinus Smasher!

Don't you dare!

Red Dragon and White Dragon, damn you both!

Where's Issei?

Issei.

What's wrong?

He took out Shalba, but he's not reverting back to himself.

Ah, the Juggernaut Drive.

Vali!

Interesting find. I sensed a change in Issei's power,

and came to see why.

Also...

Asia!

This little healer is one of yours, is she not?

We just happened to cross paths with her

while we were moving through the Dimensional Gap.

This is one very lucky girl.

Don't worry. She's alive.

Asia! Oh, Asia!

Unfortunately,

it looks like your servant had an incomplete transformation.

Issei, no.

Do you know if there's any way to change him back?

There's a chance.

It might happen naturally,

but if not, he'll use up his life force,

and that will kill him.

What if we tell him Asia's all right?

Pointless. He can't hear you.

If you merely approach him, you'll die.

But, far be it from me to stop you.

What about the power of the White Dragon Emperor?

Please, Vali! Do you think you're strong enough?

I'm begging you to do whatever it takes to save Issei!

Help us! Anything, everything.

No matter the cost, we will do it!

The only thing I think might work

is to find a way to get deep into his psyche

and then shake things up a bit.

Into his psyche, huh?

Shake things up.

Bingo bongos.

All you need to do is show him some boobs.

We can't show him anything until he's out of that state.

Then how do we get him out of it?

It's been said since ancient times

that music has been known to calm the anger of a dragon.

I'm not aware what the right songs are, though.

-- Music? -- Music?

-- Music? -- Music?

Music?

Music!

I know the right song!

Huh?

No way!
