Asia?
Why?
Asia!
Why?
Enough playing around, Diodora Astaroth.
Who is there?!
The little sister of the despicable and fake great devil.
I am the true descendant of the Great Devil Beelzebub,
Shalba Beelzebub.
Beelzebub!
Shalba! Lend me a hand.
If both the old and current great devils combine their strength...
Huh?
Fool.
Current great devil?
Calling the true bloodline "old" is a mistake in itself.
You were behind the death of the Glasya-Labolas heir, weren't you?!
Starting to claim oneself a great devil is sheer arrogance.
I am the true descendant of Asmodeus, Creuserey Asmodeus.
So one of the great masterminds finally shows himself.
As a member of the True Satan Faction, I will avenge Cattleya Leviathan.
Using the power received from Orphis,
we will destroy this world and create a new world for devils!
I will never forgive your crime of killing Asia!
Little sister of Sir Zechs. I will have you die as well.
Asia? Asia?
Where did you go? Come on, we're going home.
If you hide, we won't be able to go back!
You're such a joker, Asia.
Hurry up and come out!
Issei.
I beat up the guys who bullied you.
So let's hurry home. Come on, Asia.
Asia!
When you hear the voice in your heart
You can be reborn infinite times "NEW -> BORN"
"High School DxD BorN"
I can't hide it any longer
Salvation and ache, a mirror's PARADOX
I realized once I faced myself
The soul must be where my dream rests upon
The moment I met you and touched you, your tears spilled on my hand
Because their heat melted into my heart, our feelings could connect
"DEAR" x "DEAR" wait for me!
I make choices within this despair
Not because of blessings, but definite FEELING!
Until I reach deep into your heart
I'll call as many times as it takes, "YOUR NAME"
"Episode 9: Dragon of Dragon"
It seems things are cleaning up quite well.
Do you think Rias and the others are okay?
Let's go home, Asia.
We're doing the three-legged race in the sports festival.
We need to practice.
Issei!
Unforgivable! Unforgivable! I'll cut you!
I'll cut you down with my blade!
Xenovia!
It's useless.
Give Asia back.
She's my friend!
She was so kind! She was gentler than anyone!
Shit!
President, Asia isn't here.
We have to find her quickly.
She's my... She's our treasured family!
Issei.
Truly, the princess of the Gremory household has bad taste.
You, red filth.
I sent that girl far beyond the dimensions.
Surely her body has expired by now.
In other words, she is dead.
Well, Fafnir. I'm going to have you help me out a bit.
Sir Zechs.
You damned artificial existence!
Creuserey. For the species known as devils to continue their existence,
war in the underworld is unnecessary baggage.
A bastard who deals not only with fallen angels, but the angels themselves,
has no right to speak as a devil!
I don't want to hear that from an unhappy misfit
who joins a happy-go-lucky club like the Chaos Brigade.
Creuserey, as a great devil,
I will eliminate anyone who is against the current underworld.
Th-This is?!
Impossible!
Why?
Wh-Why must the real thing lose against a fake?
I eliminated the snake that was moving within him as well.
Oh? I didn't think you'd come here yourself.
Azazel. It has been a while.
Issei?
Rias Gremory.
Red Dragon Emperor?!
If you don't want to die, leave this place immediately.
Huh?
Hey, devil. You called yourself Shalba?
You made the wrong choice.
This amount of aura and power!
Dangerous.
Issei!
What's happening?! Issei!
This is...
I, who shall awaken...
It started.
Looks like it's going to start.
What?
...am the heavenly dragon who stole the principle of domination from God.
It has always been like this.
Right you are. It's always been so.
I laugh at the infinite and fret over the dream.
What the world desires...
What the world rejects...
I shall become the Red Dragon of Domination.
...has always been power.
...has always been love.
No matter the times, you always choose the path to ruin!
I shall drown you in the depths of crimson purgatory.
Juggernaut Drive!
If we defeat you here, will peace finally be achieved?
Impossible. You cannot defeat me.
Though you have immense power, you show no interest in the world.
So why are you leading a brigade of terrorists now?
A world of silence.
I would like to return to the Dimensional Gap that is my home
and reclaim that silence.
That is all.
The Dimensional Gap, huh? If I remember correctly...
I see, Vali. I know what you want!
Hey, Vali. Is it really here?
In a Dimensional Gap like this?
We'll definitely find it.
Hyodo Issei.
What's wrong?
Change of plans. We're going to the underworld.
Why are we going so suddenly?!
What's that?
Asia!
Issei!
Don't joke around!
My light of judgment! Try and take it on!
Divide!
What?!
Divide! Divide! Divide! Divide! Divide! Divide!
Divine Dividing?!
That power.
It's the power Issei stole from Vali!
Just how much do you plan to stand in my way, Vali?!
Y-You monster! So this is the Dragon of Domination?
Gasper's time stopping abilities!
E-Even my powers?!
Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost!
This is bad. If we stay here, we'll also...
President! Let's retreat for now!
Issei.
Rias!
President!
I'm sorry!
Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost! Boost!
Longinus Smasher!
Damn you! Red Dragon! White Dragon!
Is standing by and watching all that we can do?
Issei.
What should we do? What will make Issei change back?
Issei.
As I thought, the Juggernaut Drive.
White Dragon Emperor?!
I only came to observe because I felt the change in Hyodo Issei.
Is that Hyodo Issei?
It looks like he had an incomplete transformation.
Is there a way to change him back to normal?
Well, he's in an incomplete state.
There's a chance he'll change back
and a chance he'll use up his life force until he dies.
Either way, his life is in danger.
--Asia!
We happened to come across her
while we were moving through the Dimensional Gap.
She's real lucky. If we didn't find her,
she would have been exposed to the void of the Dimensional Gap
and her body would have dissipated into the nothingness.
Rias?!
If we tell him that Asia is safe,
Issei should be able to regain control over himself.
Just approaching him will kill you.
I won't stop you, though.
I will go!
Me, too.
I will go alone!
--President Rias!
--President!
Issei, I'll save you.
Please. Save Issei and President Rias.
Your power as the White Dragon Emperor may be able to do it.
Please.
Vanishing Dragon Balance Breaker!
What are you planning to do, Vali?
I'm just going to contain his power a bit.
You have to touch the opponent you want to use Divine Dividing on.
In that current state...
Yeah. An eye for an eye. A dragon for a dragon.
I, who shall awaken,
am the heavenly dragon who lost all to the principle of domination.
I envy the infinite and yearn for the dream.
I shall be the white dragon that masters the path of domination.
I shall lead you to the farthest limits of innocence.
Juggernaut Drive!
Hyodo Issei.
Are you not my rival?
Divide!
Divide! Divide! Divide!
Issei!
The rest is up to you guys.
Issei.
Come back, Issei!
Issei!
My name is Asia Argento. Please call me Asia.
Asia.
To make a lot of friends, and go buy flowers together with them,
and buy books with them, and chat with them...
That's my dream.
Asia.
I'm so happy... to have made a friend like you...
if only for a short time...
But she died, didn't she?!
She is dead!
It was worth it to toy with a boy who's never known a girl.
I just looked the least bit troubled, and immediately,
you became concerned about me.
But the whole thing was just for show, to make you act like that.
Would you die for me?
Issei, don't you recognize me?!
Strange. His energy signature is not purely dragon.
Something is in him.
You came, Orphis?
Please, look at me!
Issei!
You're crying for me...
I can't hold on anymore...
Thank you...
I couldn't protect her. Again, I couldn't protect her.
That's right.
You couldn't protect her!
Not then, and not now!
No!
Issei!
No!
Issei.
President?
Issei, there's no meaning to my life if you aren't here!
If you won't come back to me, I'll disappear together with you!
So, Issei...
So!
President, I...
President Rias?
You came back.
You came back. Issei...
My Issei!
What's that?
It was inside of him.
Issei!
Issei.
President. Everyone.
Um...
Asia!
Vali and his allies saved her.
It was by mere chance.
Asia! Asia!
Huh?
Issei?
Asia! Thank goodness--
Asia!
--Asia! Asia! Asia!
--X-Xenovia, what's wrong?! I-I can't breathe.
Asia, we're friends!
Yes.
We'll be friends forever!
Yes.
So don't leave me behind ever again!
Yes. We'll always be friends.
Asia!
Yes.
Hyodo Issei. Look well.
That's what I wanted to see.
That is...
Dragon of Dragon.
He is often called DD, the true Red Dragon God Emperor, Great Red.
Great Red.
DD.
He chooses to live in the Dimensional Gap
and flies around for all eternity in there.
That is Orphis' purpose. And my goal is to defeat him.
Goal?
I want to become the true White Dragon Emperor.
The White Dragon God Emperor.
Someday, I'll take down the Great Red.
Great Red. It has been a while.
Who is that?!
She wasn't here until just now!
Orphis. The dragon god of infinity, Ouroboros Dragon.
What did you say?!
O-Orphis is...
The leader of the Chaos Brigade.
Someday, I will definitely obtain silence.
Hyodo Issei.
Do you want to defeat me?
Yeah, I do.
It'd be terrible if you halved the boob size of the president or Akeno!
You're so interesting.
Get strong, Hyodo Issei.
Well, let's go back. To our home.
Yes, President!
Welcome back. Did you find Great Red?
We only got a glimpse.
That's all?
Well. A few other things happened, too.
Cattleya. Creuserey. Shalba.
The honorable blood of the previous great devils ran through them,
they should have lived honorably as well.
So, why did you save the Red Dragon Emperor?
That's so unlike you.
It was on a whim. That's all.
Perhaps, nothing is really over yet.
Remember this, Hyodo Issei.
President. It seems I caused you a lot of trouble again. Sorry.
No. You are the best...
the best servant I have!
Yes! I always think of you, President...
Issei?!
Issei!
What you think of as peace can be painful for others.
Issei!
Right, pretty much everything
I think you know already
But you know the heart
Isn't all-knowing
Only the important things fail to connect
In the end, analog is the way to go
That's why right now
I want you to give it a proper shape!
Your teasing VOICE
Give me! Let me hear it
Just a little bit is fine
I don't want ambiguity, I vote no secrets!
DO YOU DO YOU KNOW?
Give me your answer
I'm not scared at all
I can't say it, but you know, right?
Please understand
TELL ME HEART
Because what changes everything
GIVE ME WORD
Is always you
"Next Episode: High School DxD BorN"
I'll go see Vali.
The twilight of the gods is fast approaching.
Yes, he finally came to pick me up!
You haven't tested it yet, right?
I know.
"Episode 10: The Occult Club Disappears?!"
Even if it means lying to yourself, you always try so hard.
