When is the new season of highschool dxd coming out

Animes have become everyone's favorite as the storylines are incredibly vast. 'High School DxD' is another anime that is based on a Japanese manga series, and it has been adapted into several successful anime series and spin-offs since 2012. Not to mention, 'High School DxD' has a huge fan base who are now waiting for the fifth season. Even though no official announcement has been made, fans expect Season 5 of 'High School DxD' to take forward the story from the arc of Hero Oppai Dragon from the manga. Here is everything we know so far about the fifth installment. 

When Will 'High School DxD' Season 5 Premiere?

The fourth season of High School DxD premiered on April 17, 2018, and ended on July 3, 2018. However, there isn't any news about the fifth season or related development. However, the light novel author, Ichieie Ishibumi, reportedly confirmed that season 5 is on the way and encouraged fans to continue buying the light novel series. If fans continue buying the light novels, it may hasten the production of the anime.

Season 4, when aired, showed the Hero Oppai Dragon story arc from the manga in the beginning, covering Volumes 9 and 10. Therefore, we can base our expectation on the fact that there is content for season 5, and it is expected to continue the story arc and adapt Volumes 11 and 12. However, Passion Studio is yet to comment on it. If everything goes smoothly, we can expect the fifth installment to come in 2023.

We will keep this article updated as new information emerges.

What Is 'High School DxD' All About?

The story revolves around Kuoh Academy or Kuō Gakuen, an old girls' school before becoming a co-ed institution. But, the school has a secret hidden inside it that no one knows of—that it is the home of many fallen angels, both good and bad. The main character of the show is Issei Hyoudou.

Issei happens to be a promiscuous guy who dreams of having his own Harem one day and wants to date some of the beautiful girls in his school. He couldn't believe his fate when a beautiful girl named Yuuma Amano asked him out on a date. However, little did he know that Yuma is none other than a fallen angel called Raynare and he gets stabbed to death by her. Issei, however, gets a second chance at life when a beautiful senior, Rias Gremory, brings him back to life. But, giving Issei his life back, Rias had her own intentions as she was a top-notch devil. She makes Issei her servant and forces him to work for the school's Occult Research Club. 

Since Issei got a second life, he needs to learn how to fight and train himself to survive in a world of angels and devils. The show moves forward, and eventually, it becomes clear that there is something wrong with the Occult Research Club's Knight, Yuuto Kiba, who is composed and cautious most of the time. Issei finds out the reason behind Kiba's unusual behavior is because of his dark and bloody past, where he was subjected to a brutal experiment. As Issei tries to learn more about the mystery and secret, an old enemy returns with the new ones, and he is left with his comrades to fight them back.

Fans see later in the show that Issei's and his comrade's weaknesses are exposed by their sworn enemies, resulting in making Rias realizing that her team is immature and has been acting like one for so long. Therefore, she, along with Azazel, lead the members of the Occult Research into a high-intensity training regime in the Underworld to prepare them for whatever challenges await. When the team matures, they have to face none other than Loki, the evil God of Mischief in Norse mythology, and winning against him is going to be the toughest thing to do.

Who Are The Characters For The Fifth Installment?

The main character is Issei Hyoudou; along with him there are Rias Gremory, Asia Argento, Yuuto Kiba, Akeno Himejima, and Koneko Toujou. All of them have an important role to play. 

Why Is It Taking So Long For The Fifth Installment To Come?

It is being said that the studio responsible for the production of the previous four seasons will no longer be a part of the anime show in any capacity. This was the main reason for the long break between the fourth and current seasons. Because of this, nobody talked about anything further as they wanted to be sure about everything else before making any comments. The shift of studios happened because those responsible for the show wanted to follow the graphic novels, which are based much more closely than the previous studio had been. With the former four stories, the studio started drifting away in the terms of the story in the manga and basically started creating or, rather say its own story. The situation becomes a little complex here as both the manga and the anime series are equally loved by the fans and have a huge fan base. Many fans who follow the show and read the manga have complained that it is like being exposed to two completely different things, which is why the decision was made to change the production company.
