Fair enough, I was actually going to suggest that as well if you wanted to continue.

Mainly the last list was just my personal thoughts. Given how long and complicated the posting list was i wanted just to give my own thoughts a quick summarisation so sorry if i didn't make it clear. I think that It is certainty that most if not all of the girls introduce on the hero’s side will end up dating someone. I'll just go and list my thoughts on the girls overall to start:

With Kiyome I think that  Ishi wants to put  her together with Issei as he has created 2 short stories revolving around her and has had her show up in the main story 2 times with her being mentiones in Shin volume 1. My main idea is that  she'll get dragged into a problem and has to be brought back to live and eventually gets engaged to Issei.

Tsubasa is a girl i also think will be added to the harem in a side story as well. If you remember it was mentioned that she has a crush on issei and has only held back from asking him out because Rias and Akeno would most likely  do their best impression of  Yuno from Future Diary

For Jeanne that was a bit of wishful thinking but i do hope that Issei does get a former enemy in his group. I honestly thought that she would return to the story  by being forced to  help the ORC defend Kuoh but given how things have gone now i agree it is most unlikely.

Tiamat i think may not end up as a member of the harem as she appears to have a negative relationship with Ddraig that is even stronger then the treasure debt. We have to see more of her character but  I do definitely want a proper dragon girl in Issei's harem by the end of the series  and Tiamat is definitely qualified for that role.

With Griselda  i agree wit hall your points about Issei and Griselda and i do hope they get together by the series end, as it would be great pairing. Griselda has some great chemistry with Issei and Issei has definitely found her sexy. I definitely think Issei and her can have some great development but it will either have to wait to during or after the Angel team has lost  of fought Issei again. Maybe both.

Finally I think Lint will most liekly end up in the harem for sure. As you said with Bennia (Which i agree with) is thatgirls in the ORC are going to end up with Issei is  a rule Ishi has been going with but i think he has also been having those in The Hyoudou residence as well. Also in Joker of the Ball Game Ishi indicated a  real character arc for her that as yet to be detailed but given Rias losing  in the tournament now she will most likely be interacting with Issei more since she is staying in Kuoh town for now.

Overall i think this is how issei's peerage will end up:

Queen: Inglivid,  Bishop: Asia, Bishop: Ravel, Knight: Xenovia, Knight: Bennia or New swordswoman, Rook: Rosswesse, Rook: Elmenhilde,  Pawn: Kiyome Abe, Pawn:  ????? new girl

Though honestly most of it was just what i personally thought may happen at the end of the theory. I remember you mentioning earlier in the conversation about the tweets but since i can't see it since it is Japanese so i do understand that i can't read. I hope he does eventually change his mind involving Valerie and Gasper like he did for Ophis death, and eventually does the Issei and Valerie pairing that seems a lot stronger than the brother sister dynamic the vampire pair has.

Though quickly notice is that I agree that walburga is most likely not coming back into the story now that i think about it.

Ththough regarding the scene remember that issei recognised and didn’t recognise some of the floating boobs. I think Ishi name those 15 wifes to confirm there places but also mentioned a lot more in the second group to come because  he has yet to determine some girls like Lint and Kiyome ending up with  Issei in the end or not. He most likely wanted to confirm quite a few but still leave some wriggle room as we can surmise no fully that Sona and Seekvaria are not going to end up marrying Issei since they were in the audience whilst Griselda is still quite open.

(Which i also want to ask, did you find it a bit strange that Suzaku was not there. It may  a bit of a streth but going by this logic she could also be a bride as well given that her plan to marry tobio in the prequeol book Slash/Dog is a bit ridculous as one single marrige will not be enough to fix that families problems. plus she does not seem to actually like tobio that way, only so that she can fix the mistakes of her family does she want to marry him. What are your tohught, do you think Suzaku maybe a dark horse in Issei's harm, get together with her cousin or  marry someone else completly?)

However there is an theory that i want to propose. I Have been thinking that Gasper may eventually become a transgender girl (with the gender ray). I have noticed that Gasper continues to wear girl clothing as far as i am aware and that Ishi may eventually have him gendesrwap, as i think the reason he introduced the gender ray (Well other than for laughs) was to leave it open to have a trasgender love intrest.

I know that Gasper is dipected in the EX future story is ultra manly man know, but i would like to see some curve balls to shown that the charcthers still can personally change the future.

Even if Gasper does not  havee feelings for Issei as a woman, i think it would be a lot better  fit for his charcther now to realise that yes, whils it is important to be strong and asertive i think Gasper using the genderswap ray would be a better  fit for his charcther. It would also help seperate Gasper as a character from Nakirir as they both  seem to fit the role of Young boy who looks up to issei adn only Nakiri's got the grude against Mitsuya  right now to make him different.. After saving Valerie Gasper became a bit bland once all of that was sorted with no future arc as far as i can see. Though i doa acknowledge that the next volume will be focusing on the Kistune girls and the Underglassman so some devlopement most likely coming.

What do you think as a theory for his future character development, as i personally would like it being done like this as  i finished Zombie Land Saga  so it’s a recent theory but  i think it would be  a fitting end for Gaspers's arc.

Sorry if it is a bit overblown but there was a lot on the topic i wanted to say. Hope to hear back from you so we can continue this conversation.
