I am actually glad in this season that they are focusing on Issei's painful reminder of Raynare because this was a issue that held back his relationship with all the girls for quite a while, and it made him take a long time to confess to Rias because of this because he was afraid to commit himself to Rias, and any of the girls, and the Author has to be praised by this because if anyone has this done to them they would react the same because he was afraid that he didn' t deserve any of these girls, and was also afraid of the same thing happening to him with Raynare even though he knows that the girls won't do this to him but this is what is called a Mental trauma, and it is something that just doesn't go away so easily.
