Hope that Issei wins, if he loses for me his RG of V22,23,DX4 and 25 go to be blessing inside a toilette. We have see only a Rias's match and she loses, I doubt that Ishibumi's goal is Rias's victory and this arc is for the teams of Issei and Vali. In conclusion Issei and Vali are the best Azazel's students and he want that they 2 have a figth a clear winner so should be perfect Issei vs Vali such the final round.( Also I hate that when a MC loses a round of a tournament before the final round, Pokemon Anime's traumas please don't ask me more XD).
