Junior High School DxD Begins With First Episode

As a gamer with years of experience under my belt, diving into the world of High School DxD once again feels like reuniting with old friends after a long absence. The franchise has been a staple in my anime rotation for quite some time now, and I’ve eagerly anticipated each new installment.


In a fresh chapter for the series, High School DxD has ventured into a new phase with its latest sequel and spinoff titled “Junior High School DxD“. Although the original novels by Ichiei Ishibumi and Miyama-Zero have concluded some time ago, the franchise remains vibrant with continuous sequels being released. The popularity of this franchise can be largely attributed to the successful run of its four seasons on TV anime, which fans eagerly anticipate a comeback. Fortunately, the novels continue to deliver new tales while we wait for potential future adaptations.

The storyline of Junior High School DxD kicks off with its inaugural volume, “The Transfer Student Is a Samurai Girl,” making its way onto bookstore shelves nationwide in Japan. This fresh installment brings forth a new leading character, Zetta Miyamoto, who is a descendant of the renowned samurai Musashi Miyamoto. As a spinoff series from the original, it introduces an entirely new cast, with familiar faces like Rias Gremory reappearing from the main series later on. For a sneak peek at Zetta Miyamoto, take a look below.

As a fervent admirer, I can’t help but exclaim: DxD!!! What an incredible scene!! Can’t wait to see what happens next! Speaking of DxD, the suspense is killing me!! I simply cannot contain my excitement!! How about you? Are you as thrilled as I am for the upcoming episodes?!

What Is Junior High School DxD?

Regarding the initial installment of Junior High School DxD, publisher Fujimi Shobo offers a tantalizing hint, stating, “This narrative unfolds immediately after Issei and Rias triumphed in the rating game against the Sairaorg Bael clan. Zekka Miyamoto, who claims descent from Musashi Miyamoto, has had her life dictated by her sword. The reason for this is ‘Tensei’, a blade she’s possessed since childhood. This sword possesses its own will and absorbs power from the enemy’s chest. Moreover, it’s a sword that adores breasts and enhances Zekka’s strength by enlarging them!”

Zekka’s journey persists as she aspires to match the might of ‘Tensei’ in mastery of the sword. She possesses extraordinary blade skills and believes that growing stronger will lead to popularity and friendship. Yet, the world presents a stark contrast; as her power increases, so does her isolation. It’s not the Sengoku era we’re living in, even if you wield a sharp blade with skill, youth remains elusive. In her frustration, Zekka exclaims, “I detest these curves! I yearn to be an ordinary girl and have friends!”
