Recently the official Twitter account of High School DxD tweeted on September 30th that all episodes of High School DxD will broadcast on day three of Niko Niko katakawa Festival 2022.
Once there is any official news about the same, We will make sure you hear about the new season from us. Until then, we have high expectations of the new season coming into the spotlight this year.
What Can You Expect In The New Season?
Season Four ended on a cliffhanger where Azazel confronted Indra regarding Cao Cao and how he knows him. To which Azazel got a surprising reply. Indra knew Cao Cao from a young age. Moreover, he was aware of Cao Cao’s alliance with Hades.
In fact, Indra purposely hid it from everyone. Of course, Azazel ignored it. (But for how long?) Regardless, Season 4 wrapped the 10th Volume of the Manga.
If we were to speculate about the Season 5 plot, it would likely follow Volumes 11 and 12.
The new season may open with the promotion exam and further follow the scores that would determine the devil’s skills. Even if Issei scores well, he cannot rank more than the lowest class.
Things are looking like a changed scenario as Koneko knows about the closeness of Issei and Rias. On the other hand, Rias wants to feel secure about it, as Issei is all worried and unreasonable.
Meanwhile, each girl from the high school tries to seduce Issei or at least get involved in physical acts (as the female sexual stimulation increases). Further, Issei might join the school as a professor.

High School DxD Background
High School DXD is a manga adaptation that is of the same name and is immensely popular amongst readers. Moreover, it was furnished by “Ichiei Ishibumi”, and the illustrations were done by “Miyama Zero.”
He had a good experience with the series as it gained worldwide recognition within a few days of the release of the first season (2012). Surprisingly, the plot was engaging!
Kuo Gakuen used to be an all-girls private school until it was converted into a co-ed. The school contains quite a few secrets, and one of such secrets is that it is a hotspot for angels. Fallen angels, to be precise.
The series’ protagonist Issei Hyodo is a high school student, and how can we say it… (whispers) perverted? Issei Hyodo is from Kuoh Academy and has a strange wish to rule Harem. Which means he wants multiple women to be involved with him.
On the other hand, we have a red-head princess devil named Rias Gremory. She has resurrected Issei as a devil so that he can serve her family.
Their relationship is forbidden and dangerously sinful between the overworld of angels and devils. He was killed after his first date with Yumma Amano, who stabbed him as he fell in love with her.
Rias found him in devil form and made him serve her and her family. She had this intention in her mind already while saving him as she was a top-class devil.
Issei has many challenges in front of him because he will have to survive in this new world by learning how things work. He needs to train and fight for himself.
Does Lssei Find Out The Truth?
Issei finds out the truth about the dark past of club knight Yuto Kiba. Learning that Yuto was part of an inhuman experiment.
Further, the fights begin as evil rises with a new army. Rias realized her team was not strong enough and was acting out of the league. They train heavily and intensely so that they can face Loki, the god of mischief.
