Synopsis
Tsubasa Kazanari and Kanade Amou—the idol duo known as Zwei Wing—use their songs to power ancient weapons known as "symphogears" to combat a deadly alien race called the "Noise." While the general public is aware of the Noise's existence, knowledge of the symphogears are kept a secret. When the Noise attack one of Zwei Wing's concerts, Kanade sacrifices herself to protect a young girl named Hibiki Tachibana, leaving Tsubasa devastated and a fragment of her symphogear embedded within Hibiki. Two years pass and Hibiki is once again dragged into a Noise attack. While rescuing a young girl who has been left behind during the evacuation, she awakens the power of Kanade's symphogear lying within her. Although Tsubasa still grieves over the loss of Kanade, both girls must now learn to work together using their powers to defend humanity against the Noise.

Starting off, the plot is definitely interesting, and the lore is honestly a masterpiece. That said, I can't help but nitpick some parts of the drama. I find some of them overly done, with certain moments feeling unnecessary. Even so, the overall drama and emotional narration are pretty solid, and I love them. Craftsmanship-wise, everything was great. Whether it's the visuals, the animation, or the overall direction, they all hit the right spot. That said, the best part of the craftsmanship is definitely the music. It was such a peak performance from the characters. On a side note, I just can't help but comment on how unrealistic this series is in some aspects. I mean, considering how much action and destruction there is, I can't fathom how everything is still so orderly, as if everyone is just living normally despite the constant danger. Overall, I'd rate this series a 8/10. To be honest, the lore is written ingeniously, but I just can't help having a critical view of the story.
What... an absurd moment. I mean, come on, bro! I don't even know what to say about it. Like, how the F? That crap was scientifically impossible, LMAO! Even if it were possible, it wouldn't have ended that simply. Let's set that aside for now. This was such an epic episode. I really loved the power of friendship here. It wasn't overdone—just within the limits of plot armor, in my opinion. The narration was also amazing, and the wrap-up was pretty satisfying.
EPIC! Setting aside the battle, which is amazing on its own, what really makes this episode so great is how emotionally driven it is. Every character, whether major or minor, has their own moment, which makes the whole episode much more engaging for me. On a funny note, she said it. SHE SAID THE THING! Absolute CINEMA!
Pardon my words, but I just can't help it! Finé's bitch slap was so freaking funny, LMAO! To be honest, I didn't expect that move from her. Kidding aside, this episode was really epic. The intense music made everything even more engaging, and the twist, while not completely unexpected, was still a bit surprising. What I liked most about this episode, though, was the drama. It was just perfect, and it stirred my emotions really well.
This episode was pretty epic, but I feel like it could've been so much more. I just can't help but nitpick the plot. To be honest, I was expecting a more dramatic action this time, but the way they resolved everything felt way too smooth. I probably wouldn't be this critical if the story hadn't set up such high expectations for me. With how much they emphasized working together, the way everything wrapped up just felt pretty unsatisfying.
I really like the balance between the drama, action, and coziness in this episode. It's one of those rare episodes that's just so calming to watch. On another note, Unc Gen needs more screen time, bro! Such a great supporting character deserves more exposure. On a funny note, though, I can't help but laugh at Chris' reactions. She's just like a cat! So guarded, yet so cute!
W episode! I was truly touched by the relationship between Tachibana and Miku. That said, I can't help but be at a loss over their actions. Like, bud... don't you guys feel any pressure? Adrenaline? Tension? I'm flabbergasted by how chill they are after all that, LMAO! That said, it isn't a bad reaction. In fact, it's super wholesome.
No offense to Miku, but isn't she being so childish? That was a very important moment for both of them, and she decided to act like that. I just can't help but feel bad for Tachibana here. I'd be more lenient if no one had explained things to her, but everything was explained! Why be stubborn about something Tachibana has no control over?
I can't help but laugh at Tachibana's info-dumping. That was so random, LOL! On another funny note, I didn't expect Tsubasa to be such a slob! It's totally different from how cool her character is. Overall, this episode gives a great balance between its heavy narration and action. The craftsmanship during the fight was really awesome, and the emotions were conveyed just as well. I also loved the little detail of the BGM stopping and resuming during the awkward exchange between Tsubasa and Tachibana. It was a great directorial touch.
Ah yes, the good old Engurishu, LMAO! Kidding aside, this episode was really fun to watch. The visuals and animation were just amazing, and the fight scenes, especially Tachibana's moments, were super epic. On a side note, though, this totally reminded me of Excalibur. What a showcase!
I... don't understand the need to risk it all. I mean, it didn't seem that dire. Their battle was also at a stalemate. I think this drama was unnecessary, to be honest. That said, I've got to admit the battle was really great, and the intensity was high. It was super engaging and very enjoyable to watch.
I really feel bad for Tachibana in this episode. She totally doesn't deserve any of this, bro! Not only is she bound by duty, but Tsubasa also makes things harder for them. That said, I don't find Tsubasa hateable at all. In fact, I understand her feelings a lot. It's just... simply unfair, you know?
This episode is just okay. The narration is pretty heavy, but it's very necessary for the development. To nitpick, though, the way Tachibana remains so composed throughout the episode is a minus point for me. To be fair, she has experienced this before. Still, I find it hard to believe that she's so calm throughout the entire episode.
What. A. Premiere! Let's set aside the story for now. The craftsmanship in this episode is mind-blowing. The visuals, animation, direction, and, most importantly, the music and BGM gave me goosebumps. What a great start. Story-wise, it's definitely very interesting, and the way it's told makes me very curious about what these noise creatures truly are.
Um anime que conseguiu combinar ação com musica de uma forma muito boa
For the last episode, the second half of the episode was easily my favorite because it was filled with so many heartfelt and emotional moments between Hibiki and the others. I also really liked the new designs for Hibiki, Tsubasa, and Chris, they all looked really beautiful despite their designs only consisting only two colors.
This episode was filled with so many emotional scenes that kept me invested to see what would happen. Many of Hibiki and Tsubasa's scenes were the highlight for me because of what Tsubasa tried to do to help Hibiki. The second half was especially memorable because of how heartfelt and emotional it became.
There was a lot of interesting scenes in this episode that kept me invested from the beginning to the end since it finally showed more scenes of Finé. I found her design to look really beautiful, her story was also pretty interesting to learn about.
This episode was filled with bits of emotional yet heartwarming moments surrounding Chris that made me really like her character even more. The first few scenes were especially emotional because it showed just how much she experienced in her childhood. However, the second half was definitely my favorite part because of how heartwarming the moment was with between the main casts.
Some of Genjuro's scenes made me appreciate his character even more because of what he tried to do. I also loved the second half of this episode because of the wholesome moments Tsubasa was able to share with Miku and HIbiki, which easily became my favorite part of the episode. The final few scenes with Tsubasa were especially sweet and heartwarming.
