High School DxD Hero

Synopsis

Continues the story of High School DxD BorN

As summer break begins at Kuoh Academy, Issei Hyoudou, the Red Dragon Emperor, and the Occult Research Club members restart their operations. Following their clash with Issei's rival Vali and the Chaos Brigade, it becomes evident that Rias Gremory's peerage still lacks sufficient experience. To ready themselves for upcoming dangers, Rias and Azazel guide the group through rigorous training in the Underworld. Throughout this period, the team's bonds deepen, and Issei becomes increasingly entangled in intimate relationships with the club's female members. Simultaneously, their adversaries grow in both strength and quantity. The crisis escalates with the sudden appearance of Loki, the Evil God of Norse mythology, paving the way for dramatic showdowns and intense devil battles in High School DxD BorN!

In this installment

After pulling Rias Gremory from the Dimensional Gap, Issei Hyoudou, the Red Dragon Emperor and self-proclaimed Harem King, returns to his routine high school days with his Occult Research Club comrades: Yuuto Kiba, Asia Argento, Xenovia Quarta, and Irina Shidou. The club heads out on a school trip to Kyoto, only for their visit to a temple to be interrupted by an assault from local youkai. In the aftermath, they discover that the city's legendary nine-tailed fox guardian has been abducted, and the group is wrongly accused of the theft. Now, Issei and his friends must battle to vindicate themselves, salvage their excursion, and shield the city from looming catastrophe. Back in Tokyo, Rias remains with Akeno Himejima and Koneko Toujou, growing increasingly anxious about leaving the lecherous Issei unsupervised with the other female members. Underneath this worry, however, lies a more profound uncertainty: what are the genuine emotions Rias has been grappling with over the last several months?
