The theme of self - discovery is also common. Issei in many fanfictions is on a journey to find out more about himself, his place in the world, and his true potential. And of course, the theme of the supernatural world and all its elements like magic, different species, and ancient secrets is often a big part of these fanfictions as it was in the original Highschool DxD.
Romance is also a big theme. Just like in the original Highschool DxD, his son usually has his own love interests. These relationships can be complicated by his status as Issei's son. Sometimes, potential partners are attracted to him because of his family name, and he has to figure out if their feelings are genuine.
Power - up themes are also quite common. Issei often gets new powers or abilities, and Rias may play a role in that. For example, in some fanfictions, Rias helps Issei to master a new form of his Sacred Gear. This not only strengthens Issei but also deepens their bond as they train together. Another aspect is the exploration of the supernatural world in the context of their relationship. Since Highschool DxD has a rich supernatural setting, fanfictions may expand on this, like how Issei and Rias face new threats from the underworld or other dimensions together, which further cements their relationship and showcases their individual growth.
Another theme is adventure. Since Highschool DxD has a lot of action and supernatural elements, fanfictions might have Issei and Akeno going on adventures together, facing powerful enemies and overcoming challenges as a team. They could be fighting against other devils, angels or fallen angels in these stories. And often, these adventures also contribute to the growth of their relationship.
Well, often in Highschool DxD Issei bashing fanfiction, a common theme is power redistribution. Since Issei is a central figure in the original in terms of power - up and his role in battles, these fanfictions might shift the focus to other characters getting stronger or more important in different ways. It could also be about changing the overall tone of the story. Instead of Issei's more comical and pervy attitude driving parts of the plot, the fanfiction might have a more serious or different comical approach by removing or reducing his presence.
One common theme is power escalation. Since Issei is OP in these fanfictions, the story often focuses on how he continues to gain and control his ever - increasing power. Another theme is harem - related, as in the original Highschool DxD, Issei has a harem. In the fanfictions, his OP status might attract even more characters to his harem, and the dynamics within the harem change because of his new power level.
One common theme is his relationships, whether it's with his friends or potential romantic interests. Another is his growth as a character, in terms of strength and maturity.

Fanfictions may expand on these storylines while highlighting their relationship.
