1. Isn't it obvious that he/she will be a new character? :P That being said, it could very well be a descendant of Roland who is from or otherwise linked to the church in some way. Of course, it might also be someone who simply "inherited" Roland's spirit like Jeanne and Hercules did their namesakes.

2. So far, Ishibumi has failed to kill off any character on the "good" side, which Riser is currently on, and although there are those who dislike him, there are fans of his character as well. More likely, he will "die" in some other way.

My idea is that perhaps the "death flag" is not a literal death for him, but something like him suddenly becoming the next heir of the House of Phoenix after his older brother Ruval sacrifcies himself to protect him. Thus he raised the death flag for his brother and for his "freedom". Or some other curveball like that...

3. Probably during or after his Rating Game against Riser...perhaps linking to his opponent's "death".

4. No clue. Don't want him switching sides, though. Perhaps the annoying villain who provides insight into the mind of his master from behind bars...

5. Between the fact that all other Dragon Kings have appeared and the way her relationship with Ddraig has been hinted at and such, I can't believe she wouldn't appear.

6. Hard to say. Not enough info has been revealed to make a suitable prediction, IMO.

7. I should hope so. There's a good chance that the one in the hands of Mephisto Pheles' group will show up. And then there is the one that Ajuka believed he had a line on. If both those do appear, then the last will definitely appear.

8. Could be, or he could truly join Issei's harem (without gender change). At the moment, it could go eigther way, IMO. But would be a shame if he doesn't get with her.
