The war has been going on for many years, all parties are suffering enormous losses. The main thing is that during the battles their actual military leaders - Satan and God, die.

They still remain tense. And because of the great losses, they begin to resurrect people under the guise of demons. As a result, such a person becomes a servant of a demon who decided to resurrect him. In doing so, they need to stimulate these new demons for development.

Magic artifacts
In the anime High School DxD, magic artifacts are actively used. There are special magic items that are created by God. He puts them in the bodies of all kinds of people. These are precisely those “holy mechanisms”. They allow you to acquire its owner a magical ability.
If the owner dies suddenly, this "mechanism" passes into the body of another person. If the owner becomes more skilled over time, then the “mechanism” can evolve. Then its owner gains new abilities.
Demons have their own magic artifacts. These are 16 chess pieces. Each of them can be used to resurrect a person, as well as to help him gain a certain ability. If a person has great potential, for example, he has several powerful "holy mechanisms", a demon can spend several such chess pieces at once.
Special saikens are also used in these battles. This is a magical weapon endowed with special power. In fact, these are swords, however, among them there are many fakes. These swords are divided into two types. Exorcists use some, with their help they drive out demons and devils. The second type of sword can only be used by select warriors. They are a special weapon against both fallen angels and demons. Even a small scratch caused by such a sword is enough to defeat the enemy fatally.
Demon characters
All in the series involved 72 clans of demons. The most powerful is the Gremory clan. It is he who includes the protagonist of the series. This is a high school student named Issei Hedo.
The girl who kills him turns out to be a fallen angel, whose name is Raynal. But Hedo escaped. He used his last dying wish - to die on Rias's chest. This helped him to call for help a demon who revived him. True, from now on he had to become her servant.
At the same time, Khedo believes that his duty is to protect Asia. At the same time, she does not pay attention to her feelings at all, believing that her kindness is connected exclusively with excessive kindness and a complete lack of understanding of Japanese culture.
Hedo makes great efforts to climb the demon career ladder in the High School DxD series. His ultimate goal is to get his own harem.
Hedo has a sacred artifact - this is the sword of Ascalon, which once belonged to George the Victorious. The sword was granted by the archangel Michael, who planned to start a new war, but so far without success. In general, Hedo soon finds himself with a rich arsenal of weapons. These are 13 weapons of Longinus, each of which is also a "holy mechanism", has powerful power, with its help it is possible to defeat even Satan or God.

Love for rias

At the same time, it is worth noting that Hedo simply has unprecedentedly weak supernatural abilities. But he has a unique "holy mechanism" called Suteddo Gia. When a hero activates him, his powers double every 10 seconds.
As a result, even being weak, he can still defeat the enemy if he has a sufficient supply of time. Ultimately, he can become the owner of a real powerful force. Moreover, its "mechanism" has a unique ability - it can enhance someone else's magic, such as holy water or the cross. Hedo sacrificed with his left hand, now it is replaced by the dragon's paw. For this reason, he, unlike all other characters, is able to touch all kinds of holy objects.
But most of the time, his hand remains in human form, because she has to participate in rituals to draw the power of the dragon. He has the rank of a pawn in his clan. On the one hand, this is not at all prestigious; on the other hand, once on enemy territory, he is able to turn into any other figure, with the exception of the king.
Interestingly, he gains new abilities thanks to Rias's chest and his sexual desires.
Rias Gremory

In her demon team, she has the rank of king, that is, the most influential figure. Over time, she falls in love with Hedo, even settles in his house. When the protagonist declares her love, she reciprocates with him.
Interestingly, her breasts are key to reinforcing Hedo. Therefore, among the enemies in the anime "High School Demons", she has a funny nickname - "Switch Princess".
Other demons

Race of fallen angels
In the anime "High School Demons" (season 4), a particularly stubborn struggle is waged against fallen angels. It includes former angels, whom God denied because of their vulgar thoughts. They were cast down from heaven, but now they also choose large churches as their bases. True, before they have to destroy all the icons.
Among the fallen angels, Azazel stands out. He is their leader. True, he is absolutely not interested in the resumption of war. Instead, he studies and collects "holy mechanisms." In this work, he moved so far that he began to produce his own artifacts. True, they are significantly inferior in quality. When angels, demons and fallen angels made peace, he entered the post of curator of the club of the occult sciences.
Another leader of the fallen angels is Kokabiel. He is just trying to start a new war between all races. Azazel was even forced to give an order to stop him.
Race of angels
In the anime "High School Demons" there are a lot of angel characters . They are powerful, have always served God, therefore they are entitled to attack demons.
After God died, the angels could not independently increase their numbers. But over time, they created the Holy Courage system, which allowed them to transform people into angels. An interesting feature: angels need to be cleansed with the help of sex, unlike representatives of other races. But at the same time, their partner must undergo a ceremony of purification, which usually takes several hours.
The most powerful of the angels is the archangel Michael. After the death of God, he seized power in heaven. He is loyal to Hedo, while trying to prevent a new war.
On the side of the angels, his childhood friend Hedo, whose name is Irina Sido, is fighting. It is noteworthy that Issei for a long time considered her his girlfriend, mainly because of her cocky character. She is a committed Christian and church agent. The owner of the sacred particle, which allowed her to become the owner of the sword of Escalibur. She devoted herself to faith. For this reason, her partner Zenovia did not even begin to reveal to her the truth about the death of the biblical god.
Irina still learned the truth from the Archangel Michael. It turned out that she easily accepted this news and now began to believe in Michael himself. With the help of the Holy Courage system that appeared, she turned into an angel and began to directly obey the archangel Michael, having received the status of an ace. After the three races made peace, the Rias team made peace with Xenovia. As a result, a peculiar Church Trio was formed. It is noteworthy that Irina has been in love with Hedo since childhood.
Another angel is Dulio Gesualdo. Before becoming an angel, he was an exorcist. And very strong and powerful. He had the ability to fight demons of the highest level. He is the strongest of all reborn angels. He has 10 wings, he is one of the main candidates for the Seraphim.
Dragons
Powerful creatures that also participate in the confrontation of races, dragons. However, they do not act purposefully on any side specifically. Instead, they act selfishly and freely. At the same time they have a very high level of intelligence. By themselves they personify power.
Therefore, for centuries, everyone was afraid and respected dragons. They are the only creatures in this world who have not sided with any faction. During the Great War, almost all supernatural beings fought for the angels, then for demons, or for fallen angels. And only dragons managed to maintain neutrality.
With the exception of only some individuals who nevertheless sided with one of the races. If representatives of other races have long life spans, then dragons are immortal. They cannot die of old age, but they can be killed. In the times presented in the anime, almost all dragons either sleep, or are sealed in the Holy Gears, or have died.
