Okay, Let's Talk *High School DxD* Season 4 Episode 1 (Eng Sub, Of Course!)
Right, let’s be honest. We were all waiting for it. The glorious return of Oppai Dragon. And yes, I'm talking about High School DxD Season 4, episode 1, with those crucial English subtitles.
Finally, we can understand what everyone's saying. No more guessing games based on... *ahem* visual cues.
The Hype Was Real, But…
Did it live up to the hype? Maybe. Maybe not.
Here’s my slightly unpopular opinion: the animation style was… different. We’re used to the, shall we say, *enhanced* character designs. This was a bit cleaner, smoother, almost… angelic?
Look, I’m not complaining, but the shift was noticeable.
Rias Gremory Still Reigns Supreme
But fear not! Rias Gremory still looked amazing. That's the important thing, right? And Issei Hyodo? Well, he’s still Issei. The lovable, perverted, dragon-powered goofball we all know and... tolerate.
His dreams of becoming the Harem King are still going strong.
Plot? What Plot? (Just Kidding… Sort Of)
Okay, the plot. It’s there. Something about Norse mythology and Loki causing trouble. Typical demon stuff, you know.
Honestly, I was more interested in the, uh, character development. Or lack thereof.
"Boobs are Life!"- Wise words from a wise man (or Issei, same difference).
Those All-Important Subtitles
The English subtitles were crucial. Absolutely essential. Without them, I’d be lost in a sea of Japanese honorifics and dragon roars.
Big shout out to the translators. You are the true heroes.
The Fight Scenes: Epic or… Meh?
The fight scenes in episode one were decent. Not mind-blowing, but decent.
I missed the old animation style a bit here. It had a certain… *oomph* that this episode lacked.
Final Thoughts: Worth Watching?
Absolutely! It’s High School DxD. Even a slightly different animation style and a plot that’s sometimes secondary can’t ruin the fun. Especially when it's Eng Sub.
Plus, there's the fan service. Let’s be real, a lot of us are here for *that* specifically.
My Unpopular Opinion (Again!)
My unpopular opinion? Season 4 Episode 1 wasn’t the BEST episode of High School DxD ever made. It was good, solid, entertaining.
But it was missing something. Maybe that raw, unadulterated energy of the earlier seasons.
I’m still excited to see where the season goes, though! After all, who can resist a good story, powerful characters, and a healthy dose of… well, you know. Roll on the next episode!
