8 High School DxD Main Characters Overview
While there is an extensive roster of characters in High School DxD, most only appear in a couple of episodes and seasons.
Check out our rundown below on the main characters to refresh your memory before season 5!
1. Rias Gremory and Issei Hyouda
Rias and Issei are the main characters and the anime often centers around their relationship. What started as a little crush has moved even more seriously in the latest Season 4, High School DxD Hero.
There’s even a scene that depicts the two’s relationship gaining approval from Rias’s family.
While their relationship is essentially confirmed at this point, the harem genre won’t let Issei lock into a monogamous relationship just yet.
Issei is a typical, perverted but oddly loveable character who would do anything for Rias and his friends. He’s also marching towards his goal of being the Harem King with nothing stopping his way.
He’s Rias’s servant in the Pawn Class. But he soon realized it’s an important position requiring Rias to use all 8 Pawn slots when resurrecting him.
Rias is a part of a powerful, highly regarded household, the Gremory Family, and her brother, Sirzechs Lucifer, is one of the Four Demons Lords. She lives a normal high school life in disguise to get away from the implications of her position.
2. Akeno Himejima
Akeno Himejima is the dark-haired, beautiful onee-chan character that just makes you melt. She’s a calm and gentle person but contrary to her outward demeanor is a masochist who loves causing others pain.
She’s also extremely powerful and uses elemental attacks as her weapon of choice. Her favorite thus far seems to be lighting attacks, earning her the title of “Priestess of Thunder”.
Akeno is the Vice-President of the Occult Research Club. She’s the daughter of a Fallen Angel, Baraqiel, and a shrine maiden. She eventually met Rias Gremory and the two became quick friends.
Rias then contracted Akeno as her first Servant and is a Queen Class demon. She’s a powerful sorceress that can use her powers to attack enemies or shield allies.
Arguably, she’s also the ‘best girl’ in High School DxD with many fans opting for her as their favorite in the series.
3. Asia Argento
Asia Argento is another of Issei’s admirers. She’s an innocent, and naive girl who serves as one of several ‘loli’ characters in the anime.
She was a nun in the Catholic Church and moved to Japan to help the people. She gets lost and captured by Reynalle, the same Fallen Angel that murdered Issei, prompting his revival by Rias.
Asia’s also a powerful healer who uses her powers for good, healing anyone and everyone she comes across. She’s also known as the “Holy Priestess” for her good deeds and her healing powers.
Rias Gremory revived Asia after her untimely demise caused by Reynalle. Reynalle extracted Asia’s Sacred Gear, which is what she was after the whole time. She is a Bishop Class Demon and is now loyal to Rias.
She doesn’t have any fighting/offensive techniques and supports the team solely with healing.
Asia is also able to tame dragons. She has pacts with Rassei, a baby sprite dragon that was infamous for being a rowdy, untamable wyvern. She also has a pact with Fafnir, known as one of the Five Dragon Kings.
4. Yuuto Kiba
Yuuto Kiba is the pretty boy in High School DxD and pulls it off well. He’s usually calm and collected and is adored by all girls in Kuoh Academy, who’ve named him the “Prince of Kuoh Academy”.
Contrary to his calm demeanor, he also has a darker side. This is especially apparent whenever Kiba comes across mentions of the “Holy Swords”. When he was a child, he was a test subject in the Holy Sword Project.
Conducted by the Church, it was to create children capable of using Holy Swords. With the project’s failure, all the test subjects were killed including Kiba, who was later revived by Rias and now serves as her Knight.
Whenever he meets a Holy Sword wielder or someone associated with the experiments, he loses his cool and seeks revenge. His main goal is to eliminate and destroy all the Holy Swords.
Being a Knight, his main strength is his speed and mobility. He also has the Sacred Gear: Sword Birth which allows him to summon any number of swords from anywhere he pleases.
He also has a large collection of Demon swords to help deal with different elemental attacks. Kiba is also regarded as one of the best swordsmen in the anime thus far.
Koneko Toujou
Koneko Toujou is another member of Issei’s harem who once despised him and his perverted tendencies. Over time though, she follows suit with her other harem members in loving him wholeheartedly.
But she still hates him being a pervert generally. Koneko is a cute, small, loli-style character who’s also a half-Nekomata / half-demon mix.
She serves as the catgirl character with some typical traits like meowing, cat ears, and mannerisms.
Toujou is one of Rias’s Rooks after Sirzechs Lucifer saved her from the punishment of a crime she did not commit. Sirzechs then brought her to Rias, who she now serves.
She’s cold, quiet, and minds her own business until she warms up and is more comfortable with the person. But she’s also extremely loyal and would do anything for her friends and Rias.
Koneko is a half-Nekomata cat-like demon who uses ki manipulation that turns her into an incredibly powerful fighter. She can lift boulders and fight anyone head-to-head regarding brute strength.
Her ki manipulation mixed with demon arts increases her hand-to-hand fighting prowess while bolstering a tough defense. Koneko is also a rare kind of Nekomata, the Nekoshou that are known to be the strongest among the species.
Xenovia Quarta
Xenovia Quarta is a foe-turned-friend and a blue-haired master sword user.
She was part of the Catholic Church where she served as an exorcist. After embarking on a journey to Japan in search of the fragments of Excalibur, she eventually fell out of the Church’s graces.
High School DxD New Xenovia Tribute
She then sought out to be one of Rias’s Knights and turned into a demon.
While Xenovia is sort of a dunce when it comes to common sense situations, she’s an intelligent person. She’s also one of the top students in class.
She’s a knight who usually focuses on speed and mobility during a fight. However, she’s been trained to excel at outright strength.
Xenovia is a powerful swordswoman that’s almost on the same level as Kiba.
Her actual power is the ability to use any Holy Sword at its full power. But becoming a demon, she now relies on the demon sword, Durandal which is almost as powerful as the Holy Sword Excalibur.
Gasper Vladi
Gasper the Cute Trap Loli – High School DxD Hero Episode 8
Gasper Vladi is a cross-dressing vampire who enjoys adorable girl clothing. But this is in part due to his past, where he was ostracized for being a half-vampire/human hybrid.
Vampires hold pure-blooded lineage in high regard. He was feared and abhorred by Gasper’s ability to stop time. Eventually escaping, he was soon attacked by Vampire hunters and perished.
Rias found Gasper gravely wounded and revived him as one of her Bishops.
And since Gasper does not have full control of his unpredictable powers yet, Rias lets him stay in a restricted area in the club room to limit unintended accidents. He has a shy and closed-off personality.
Eventually, he gains confidence after befriending Issei and the rest of the team. He’s now an important team member and would do anything for them. He can stop time, he also has Vampiric powers to control bats and shadows.
