High School DxD is what happens when a writers' room confuses "ambiguous" with "didn't finish the draft".

“Popcorn's burnt. Like this film.”
High School DxD
Masterfully crafted. Un-roastable.
An absolute cinematic disaster.
Issei Hyodo is your average perverted high school student whose one wish in life is to have his own harem, but he's got to be one of the unluckiest guys around. He goes on his first date with a girl only to get brutally attacked and killed when it turns out the girl is really a vicious fallen angel. To top it all off, he's later reincarnated as a devil by his gorgeous senpai who tells him that she is also a devil and now his master! One thing's for sure, his peaceful days are over. In a battle between devils and angels, who will win?

Hot Take: High School DxD's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece
Director clearly thought High School DxD was deeper than it is. There's a difference between ambiguous and unfinished, and this leans hard into the second.
Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in High School DxD actually is?
Rewatched High School DxD last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.
[Serious Discussion] Is anyone else completely checked out by the pacing in High School DxD?
Honestly, High School DxD would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.
