High School DxD tells the story of Issei Hyoudou, a high school student whose desire to form a harem leads him to spy on women, being portrayed as a young man with no direction in life. However, his fate takes an unexpected turn when an attractive young woman proposes a date, later revealing her true identity as a fallen angel and ending up brutally attacking him.

Fortunately, the narrative takes a new turn when Rias Gremory, a senior student and high-ranking demon, decides to grant Issei a second chance, reviving him as her servant. This is how Issei joins the school’s enigmatic Occult Research Club, thus beginning an exciting journey.

Throughout this fascinating journey, Issei finds himself immersed in a world inhabited by angels and demons, where confrontations and training are commonplace. Adapting to his new role, Issei finds himself involved in a sphere full of mysteries and dangers, sharing exciting and, at times, suggestive moments with his eccentric companions.

The plot not only delves into the fantastic and supernatural, but also explores the duality between innocence and seduction. Issei is forced to keep his new life a secret from friends and family, creating a delicate balance between his day-to-day life and the daring adventures that await him in this enigmatic universe.
