Como siempre con estas novelas ligeras, no puedo con las situaciones malas salidas de tono, ni con muchas de las acciones de los personajes.
La trama de las hermanas es interesante (fuera de Shidou), pero no le da lo suficiente para ganarse la tercera estrella.
De hecho, a punto he estado de dropearlo, por suerte he seguido porque para el último tramo la trama se pone interesante.

This volume was simply marvellous. It was really great and a fun read.
We are introduced to a several new characters, the important being the Yamai twins and Ellen. The Yamai twins are the new set of spirits and Ellen is the best "wizard" of DEM industries, whose rival is our favorite Ratatoskr.
In this volume, we are for the first time presented that both groups are basically enemies. With which we gain an additional villain, being the evil organisation.
The book even ended in an cliff-hanger so that's even better.
But what I feel lacking is a strong male character. I really like High School DxD, but not because of the ecchines, but because of the diverse characters in the gender sense. Shidou does have a friend but I feel that he is only an expositional character. Well let's hope for the best.

Having little time to recover after events from the previous volumes, Shido and his classmates go on a school trip to a semi-tropical island. Here he runs across twin spirits hell bend on killing each other. To make matters worse, a new enemy makes an appearance to oppose Ratatoskr.
Much like the previous volumes, the story is a mix of rather absurd humour, satire for dating games, with an intriguing world and mystery. The mystery is only deepened, not just about Shido's and the spirit's nature, but also the people involved in some kind of shadow war with one another. I do hope that at some point, new spirits stop appearing and a name list is added to the front, because it is getting a bit difficult to remember even though I do love the personalities of the twins.
Looking forward to the next part.
