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.

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.
