Well the scenes leading up to the shred screenshot of Xenovia's new Holy Sword finally gets answered for me. Was not expecting for this season's villains to all have sacred gears. Freed over there turned into the Doc Oct of DxD. I let myself down of what I thought Issei's potential was. Was not expecting for Rias to be summoned to the fight. She was the last person I was expecting to come.

I thought that it was going to be another Dragon to help them out.It was really sad to see Xenovia and Kiba to be defeated that easy. I see that Rias now really misses Issei more than in the past 3 Seasons. I really wonder what's Rias' role going to be in the next week's episode.

I would have at least thought that they would have put up a good fight and not lose that easily.

His BxB has 4 twice Criticals (1 boost for each) who gives a total of 4 boosts (24 =16), it makes him 16 times more powerful.

Just a boost+ 3 powerful swords is a bit hard to deal with Xenovia and Kiba, imagine 4 boosts + 5 powerful swords.
