With so many LN based anime getting new seasons, I hope this OVA is the prelude to a new season on the near future.

Go watch hentai. You'd be getting the same experience: all sex and no real storyline.

I'm still debating whether or not to buy the set when it comes out next week. I've tried two times to get into but I end up bored. All I see is a poor man's High School DxD.

Fantastic news! Gonna have to order it to go along with the rest of the series I have. 60 minutes means it should have a fair bit of progression as well if based on the books.

Looking forward to seeing more of the world, intriguing story and of course the delightful ecchi greatness.

Well it has more of a plot than Prison School and its at least more entertaining to watch. Then again I'm already weird for watching it being that I'm a girl. >_>

There's nothing weird about you liking this series. I kinda like it. My obvious objection is that is just a DxD clone.

No need to get toxic Taifood. If you don't have anything to say but troll about the news go somewhere else. Everyone has different tastes.

Are the LN on sale in the US?

Have you ever watched the anime? Inside the genre of ecchi LN based anime Testament is one of the best. I even like Testament more than DxD (and i like DxD allot).

Basara is a better MC than Issei.
At least Basara is stronger since the beginning and don't spend all the time crying as how weak he is. Im really sick of Issei crying all the time. DxD would be better if Vali was the MC.
And Basara really do live as a real harem king. Issei spend all time wanting to be a harem king and don't farther than kissing the girls now and then and touching breasts.

And DxD story is having too much Shonen and too much tokusatsu troupes.
DxD is more for older teens and Testament is more for young adults.

I like DxD for the comedy and Testament for the story.

BTW, some hentai have better story lines than many shonen manga out there.

Oh my God, YES! i was waiting for a long time for this, looks like the studio is willing to keep adapting, the novel is even in the final arc, so a new season with 12 or 25 episodes could actually adapt the entire rest of the novel i think.

People like you who don't know the difference between hentai (pornography) and a ecchi or seinen series with more mature content are really annoying in this community, Testament doesn't even have sex scenes until this point of the show and a show having sex doesn't even mean it's hentai/pornography since doesn't have explicit sex, and to finish, you will be really hard to find any actual hentai with the story and characters of a ecchi series like Testament, so educate yourself before throwing ignorant comments.

Did you just say that Basara is a better MC? Hell the fudge no.

1) Basara has a harem with no logical reason behind it. Is there a point for them all to be under a succubus curse? No. Mio was the only one that needed to be under it because it was all they had at the time.

"Basara lives as a harem king."

Yeah, while simultaneously being completely nonchalant and uncaring about it all. That's so [expletive] tropey it makes me want to gag.

2) Basara is the most [expletive] bland OP character I've ever seen in my life, well barring Touya from Smartphone, but that's besides the point. He has no motivation in life, and Mio/Maria treat him like absolute shit. The guy still wants to protect them with his life, and that becomes his reason for living. Can you say, lazy writing? At least Issei is established as a pervert who wants these things, ergo IT MAKES SENSE. Let's also not forget that Basara's part of the hero clan, people sworn to kill demons. Why all of the sudden is he not like that? Aren't they taught to know that demons are seductive? Can you say, contradictory writing?

3) The biggest WTF offender is how Basara and Mio treat each other. They both call each other siblings, even though they aren't related and are clearly in love with each other. That is [expletive] weird dude. It takes incest to a whole new level. They're not blood related, but it looks like they want to be.

4) Did this show even have villains? I can't remember them.

I'm not saying that DxD is good in terms of narrative quality, but their main characters are written far differently. Issei wins. Your tastes don't matter. I agree that Issei is a massive bitch, one that should just make a move already, but my opinion doesn't matter either. Narrative quality matters. What makes sense matters. You can't use the "within this genre, this is better" argument. Harems in general have garbage writing.

Couldn't disagree more. Testament is written so damn lazily that I have trouble distinguishing it from real hentai.

Also the sexual scenes in Testament are literally borderline hentai. Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. The only thing missing is penetration.

Just a quick note. SPOILER: Basara and Mio are related, theyre first cousins I believe. Basara's mother is Mios fathers (The previous demon king) sister. So Basara's Mother is Mio's Aunt.

Looking at what you write, i have some doubts that you watched the anime.

1- Succubus course/master-slave contract - make both parties stronger and they know each other location.

Also Basara have a real harem and all harem members have lots of "fun" unlike shonen harems where after 1000 episodes nothing really happens.

2 - Motivation. His harem are his family Mio and Maria are his step-sisters and he fights to protect his family. Reason enough in my book. And in reality Mio are his spoiler[real cousin]. Also Chisato are his spoiler[cousin].
Yuki and Kurumi are childhood friends. And Zest is his cute maid. So they also deserve to be protected

Also the hero clan expelled him. He have no reason to behave like he is still with the clan. And he isspoiler[ 1/3 human 1/3 devil king 1/3 god] . So no need to attack all devils because he is not a hero anymore and in reality he is spoiler[part devil-king] .

3 - Incest. Really!? Is that really a problem in a fantasy story?? This is not real life, so zero problems there.

4 - Villains: Demon lord faction council, Zolgear, Volga, Admirath, Belphegor, Valga, Ornis, Nebra, Chaos just to talk about the ones that appear in the anime

My problem with Issei is that he is your everyday typical battle shonen MC. Stupid as a door, pervert, and start as weak human with a special weapon, it takes to much time to get stronger and lots and lost of training.
And, in my age, it feels very boring to wait to the MC to get stronger enough. I prefer OP characters and skip all that boring training episodes.
Also Issei cries allot, men, just grow-up and behave like the age he have, he is not a children anymore.
That's why i would prefer Vali personality as the DxD MC personality.
And also that's the reason i prefer Basara.
