Rias - how many volumes to gain a one strike kill technique?

Akeno - still emotionaly insecure after how may volumes?

Asia - most frequently referred to as a cock blocker -- Guess what!!! In the story line, Rias will be Isseis first (Maybe not clearly stated but implied). Also Rias is protecftng her virginity untill she is married (after she graduates from college). So if not Asia then someone else or some other situation will prevent Issei from going all the way.

I realy wonder if most of you are looking at actual charactor progression. Not everyone advances at the same rate, but they are advancing. Each charator has progressed in their own way, some with power ups, some with maturity, and some by breaking out of their molds.

Everyone has their favorites and least liked in the story. Even though I like Akeno, I find her to be the stalest charactor in the series. When Issei died she went catatonic. When Rossweisse asked Issei to be her boyfriend she became gloomy (catatonic/gloomy not much of a differece). Yes she has gained some new abilities, yet emotionaly she has advanced the least.

If you are going to hate one or another of the charactors at least give them a fair chance. I could list every one of the main charactors and give examples of their down sides and I could also give examples of their up sides. Like a charactor or not each one has a place in the story line.
