Issei Hyoudou

Issei Hyoudou is a second year student at Kuoh Academy and he is the Pawn of Rias Gremory's Peerage.

## Appearance

Issei is a high school student of average height with short spiky brown hair, with two short locks of hair behind his head, and light brown eyes. His most commonly worn outfit is the Kuoh Academy boys' school uniform, which consists of a blazer (more commonly black, although in other media is shown with a tinge of purple or grey, with white accents) over a white, long-sleeved dress shirt with black highlights with a black ribbon on the collar, matching black pants, and brown dress shoes. However, Issei's uniform differs in the fact that he wears a red T-shirt underneath his open dress shirt and blazer, and wears blue and white sneakers in place of dress shoes.

## Personality

Issei is exceptionally unintelligent and a pervert, often prone to indulging in lascivious fantasies and is completely obsessed with women's breasts and has his own harem. He is also the owner of Boosted Gear one of the original 13 Longinus so he is very arrogant and confident.

When he saw Aaron phenex surrounded by beautiful girls, Issei was very jealous of Aaron. And upon hearing that Aaron Phenex was just a trash from the other devils' accounts, Issei's attitude changed immediately.

Issei immediately arrives and says that they should leave this trash behind and join his harem, which immediately angers the girls and nearly kills Issei if Aaron doesn't stop them. Issei with his stupidity continued to say stupid things but when he saw that the girls didn't care and continued to cling to Aaron, Issei immediately got mad. But before Issei could do something stupid, Sirzechs Gremory intervened to avoid unnecessary incidents from happening.

Issei foolishly intended to continue yelling vulgar words to insult Aaron but immediately became scared and in pain when his legs were severed by Maki.

Issei still did not regret his actions but began to blame Aaron and resented Aaron even more. Issei got mad again and challenged him to a Rating game but lost and the Boosted Gear was taken by Aaron (Aaron used a special item created by Aaron that was able to take away the Sacred Gear without killing the host).

After the Boosted Gear was taken away, Issei's value in the devil faction's eyes was no longer high and no one cared about him anymore.

## History

Sometime during his childhood, Issei met an old man who told him and other children stories about breasts, which eventually led to Issei's fascination with them and his perverted tendencies.

He attended the same middle school with Matsuda and Motohama and the three of them started attending Kuoh Academy one year before the story, and have come to be known as the Perverted Trio to just about the entire school.

Issei meets Riser Phenex, a man from the Phenex Family, who, to his shock, is revealed to be Rias's betrothed wife. Issei refused to accept him as Rias's fiance, and he activated his Boosted Gear to try to cope. Riser goes one-on-one but is easily defeated by one of his Pawns. After Rias agrees to face Riser in a Rating Game with her engagement on the line, Issei and the rest of the Occult Research Club members go to a mountain to train. He later assisted Rias in her first-ever Rating Game match against Riser in a replica of the school, in which he teamed up with Koneko where he incapacitated three Pawns with his new Dress Break spell, defeated one rook with Dragon Shot and assisted in defeating five of Riser's Peerage with Kiba before going off to face Riser alongside Rias. Issei, however, was incapable of doing anything as his body reached its limit due to the burden of the boosted power that is continuously placed on his body and was nearly beaten to death by Riser, forcing Rias to resign.

Later waking up in his room and being informed of Rias' defeat by Grayfia, Issei becomes frustrated and blames himself for his weakness only to be given a paper with a magic circle engraved on it by Grayfia that allowed him to warp to the Underworld. Upon arriving at the engagement party hall, Rias' brother and Satan, Sirzechs Germory, reveals that he set up this event as entertainment for Rias' engagement party, which allows Issei to battle Riser one more time in a one-on-one fight with Rias' engagement on the line. During the fight, Issei revealed he formulated a strategy beforehand that required giving up his arm to the Dragon in his gauntlet to use his Balance Breaker armor for a few seconds, in addition, his dragon arm can now hold a cross to use against Riser. However, his armor disappeared quicker than agreed due to still being weak. Even so, he gained the upper hand by poring Holy Water that's been boosted onto Riser. He then doused the Holy Water onto the cross and transferred his remaining power to deliver a devastating punch that knocks Riser unconsciousness and won.

After escaping the battle and rejoicing in his victory, a taunt suddenly rang out, shocking everyone present. When Issei and the others turned towards the direction of the sound, there was a group consisting of a handsome boy and four attractive girls. Issei was surprised by the girls' beauty when a mocking sound from one of the girls rang out again but this time it was mocking the entire devil faction. Especially the Phenex Clan, they were even more mocked by that girl for agreeing to these stupid things just because they didn't want to confront Sirzechs Germory.
