Animes Like Highschool Dxd Novels & Stories

Highschool DxD is such a wild ride—ecchi, action, and supernatural lore all rolled into one. If that's your vibe, 'Testament of Sister New Devil' is a no-brainer. It's got the same mix of risqué humor and demonic power struggles, plus the protagonist's dynamic with the female leads feels similarly intense. 'Rosario + Vampire' also hits those notes with its monster school setting and harem elements, though it leans more into comedy.

For something with a darker edge, 'Highschool of the Dead' blends ecchi with zombie apocalypse chaos. The fanservice is just as over-the-top, but the survival horror twist keeps things fresh. And if you're into the battle harem aspect, 'Date A Live' offers a sci-fi spin with spirits instead of demons. The protagonist’s ability to 'seal' powers through romance? Cheesy but weirdly addictive.

If you're into the mix of ecchi, action, and supernatural elements that 'Highschool DxD' delivers, there's a whole world of anime that scratches the same itch. For starters, 'Testament of Sister New Devil' is practically a spiritual sibling—supernatural battles, cheeky fan service, and a protagonist caught in a wild power struggle. Then there's 'Trinity Seven', which blends magic school shenanigans with a harem dynamic and a protagonist who’s unapologetically bold. 'Campione!' also fits the bill, with myth-based action and a dash of romance.

For something slightly different but still in the same vein, 'Shinmai Maou no Testament' pushes boundaries even further with its themes, while 'Masou Gakuen HxH' leans into mecha and ecchi. If you’re after more comedy, 'To Love-Ru' is a classic, though it’s lighter on the action. Honestly, the fun part is discovering which of these clicks with you—some lean harder into the fan service, others into the lore, but they all share that addictive blend of chaos and charm.

Highschool DxD really hits that sweet spot between supernatural action and, well, ahem generous fan service. If you're hunting for something similar, I'd start by diving into the 'ecchi' and 'harem' tags on sites like MyAnimeList or AniList—they're like treasure maps for this genre. 'To Love Ru' is a classic that comes to mind; it's got the same playful vibe with aliens instead of devils, and the comedy lands just as hard. 'Testament of Sister New Devil' is another no-brainer—supernatural battles, cheeky romance, and a protagonist who’s as clueless as Issei at first.

But don’t sleep on 'Date A Live' either! It swaps out devils for spirits, but the mix of action, humor, and romantic tension is just as addictive. I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve rewatched the 'Dress Break' scenes in 'DxD,' and 'Date A Live' delivers its own brand of chaotic charm. If you’re into lighter tones, 'Rosario + Vampire' is a fun throwback with monster-school shenanigans. Honestly, half the fun is digging through user recommendations—you’ll stumble on gems like 'Shinmai Maou no Testament' or 'Hyakka Ryouran' when you least expect it.
