The anime High School DxD has the following description: Issei Hyoudou is a high school student whose desire to form a harem leads him to spy on women, which leads him to be 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, his life 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. Issei joins the school’s enigmatic Occult Research Club and begins an exciting journey.
Slowly adapting to his new life, Issei must train and fight to survive in the violent world of angels and demons. Each new adventure will lead him to hilarious (and racy) moments with his new classmates, while keeping his new life a secret from his friends and family.
