After getting used to the new art style from the new production studio Passione, fans have fallen in love with High School DxD‘s fourth season. This is especially true as each new episode provides many NSFW highlights the series is famous for.

Episode four of the series started the fight between Issei’s small Kyoto group and the mysterious Hero faction, and this hilariously leads to Issei exploring his powers of perversion even further.
Episode four’s eye-catchers follow up on a bit of exploration last week at they focus on Rossweisse, who’s experiencing a bit of character growth this arc (you can find the very NSFW images at this link). She even has a particularly standout moment in both character personality and strength when she arrives to the fight drunk.
As you can see in this gif, Rossweisse provides a different kind of fanservice. Although it’s more safe for work than the series’ typical service, it’s definitely a welcome change of pace from the norm.
The latest episode focuses more on action than fan service, which is a good move for the series’ arcs which usually kick up around four episodes in. Still, it manages to hilariously use Issei’s more evolved “Booblingual” to make an action scene more NSFW (which you can see at the link here).

If you are not familiar with High School DxD, then you should know the series is one rooted in supernatural adventures and gratuitous fan service. The story follows a boy named Issei Hyodo who is best known for his perverted ways. After being asked on a date, the boy is killed when the girl turns out to be a fallen angel. Issei is revived by a busty classmate of his named Rias who is a devil herself, and she contracts the boy to become her new pet as she reincarnated him into a devil during his resurrection.
