Man so many things in this volume that I felt was a bit of out of character for Ishibumi's regular pace. First we get the cermony of Issei getting a High Class Devil and the Rias and Akeno getting graduated from high school, then skip foward to a Rating Game match, Where Issei has already recuited a mysterious queen (Which I hope is definitely not Grayfia. His peerage felt anti-climax and perdictable after he recuited the church trio to aid him in the tournament) and a male pawn, which I hope is only for the tournament and not a official member of his peerage and a quick match between Issei and Barakiel, which I wouldn't happening in the next volume, but hey it was still good regardless, and sadly Ishibumi has now stated that DxD last story won't go past volume 30? What does that mean?

Is this arc going to end with 8 more volumes and end at 30 or the just current story of this arc (I'm guessing its just the prior.)

If I have to rate this, I would give a 7.5 out of 10

Pros:

1) Issei has become a High-Class Devil

2)He has form a peerage and already picked out a Queen (Again I hope its not Grayfia)

3) The International Rating game and gradutation

4) Akeno's second kiss with Issei

5) Issei's confession to Akeno and proposal to Rias

6) Illustration of Rias and Akeno and Issei's DxD form

Con:

1) Too quick of a pace (In my opinion)

2) Issei's peerage felt too predictable and anticlimax (even if some of the members aren't official in his peerage)

3) Rias's OP peerage

4) Issei allow a "MALE" to join "His Peerage!" (Oh the Horror)

A quick question to B214:

When are you going to official going to make a page for Issei's peerage? When volume 22 is translated and up on Baka tsuki or sometime sooner?
