I’m noticing a trend that ecchi anime adaptations are usually not so well received by the fans of the original source material. At least it is not a Rosario + Vampire affair where the ecchi was added into the anime.

Where To Start The High School DxD Light Novel After The Anime?
If you watched all four seasons of the High School DxD anime, you can pick up the light novels at Novel 11.
Is The High School DxD Light Novel Over?
The High School DxD light novel is complete. It ended in 2018 with Novel 25.
It also has a sequel light novel series, Shin High School DxD, that is ongoing.
Where To Start The High School DxD Manga After The Anime?
There is also a High School DxD manga, in case you need to visualize the “plot,” but unfortunately it adapts the first five light novels and then stops, so if you watched the anime, not much point in reading it.
What to Expect From The High School DxD Source Material Compared to The Anime?
High School DxD is one of those anime series that starts off strong, but becomes less of a good adaptation as it goes on. Season 3 was particularly bad. While you don’t necessarily need to read the High School DxD light novels from the beginning, you may actually wish to start instead at Novel 5, which is where Season 3 starts.
Will There Be A High School DxD Season 5?
High School DxD was one of the rare ecchi anime that got more than one season. However, it seems to have fizzled out firmly in 2018 when Season 4 was released near when the light novel ended. It is unlikely that, at this point, they will make more.
