| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well this episode made me happy for the Sheer fact that CHRIS in the following spoiler About the beginning, the start was rather nice in that they showed another part of Chris’s armor breaking up here and another view of the beam coming towards Chris here. It showed angles not seen before IMO. While I admit that Fine’s face here did not look too thrilled but angered. In fact I pity how they show Hibiki here all crippled due to the trauma of Chris’s sacrifice. Suffice to say that the heart depiction in the spoiler About Hibiki in Berserk mode, it was very nice of them to show Hibiki being normal to gradually being infected with the darkness here. As it shows only her face black. Tsubasa in response had a nice angered face here and a a very nice challenging pose towards Fine. Obviously anger is at its peak. However Fine was totally not impressed with her pose here. Despite that Hibiki’s Berserk mode fully in black appearance in the spoiler If psycho was not enough 2 fronts opened up while Fine is healing: 1. Hibiki turning against Tsubasa in the spoiler 2. Hibiki got the anime girl in the spoiler So that being said the Berserk mode being not controllable should have a off button somehow to turn it off. Cause it was totally not beneficial other than mass power. It paranoid a civilian girl and hurt Tsubasa badly. At least it made her lose energy in the worst case. About the girls helping out, resuming it all is the following spoiler Bringing in the girl that Hibiki saved along with her mother was nostalgic in the spoiler About the fan service, in terms of fan service, I find that during the naked innocent session of Kanade/Tsubasa that the close up of Kanade in the spoiler (NSFW)
About Tsubasa VS Fine, totally mind blowing BGM amazing! It was totally kick ass! Fine really did not look too thrilled over all this but Tsubasa did not waste anytime to fight. A immediate 2 hit combo in the spoiler THIS! What is in the following spoiler  While the Blast Radius in the spoiler About Hibiki and Fine, bad situation! Total abuse. No it was not cool. Seeing Hibiki being kicked, get her hair abused and end up like in the spoiler In thee end my MIRACLE REVIVER comes around. Everyone’s songs revives everyone relics and reincarnates their Gears as White Angel Gear. Hibiki looks most stunning in the following,  Along with Tsubasa and Chris in the spoiler BTW Image Stitches are done in the Club: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=417445 Nice ones of Kanade, Fine, Hibiki and Tsubasa. GIFs are done in the club: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=417487 Made a sig of the end of this episode. |

| Kill em all averted by the choir. Glad Hibiki, Tsubasa, and Chris are back alive Tower of Babel got destroyed as well by Tsubasa's " heroic sacrifice". Ryoko is going to get what she deserves for last episode. Hibiki in full berserk mode is quite scary and awesome. |
 |
| The choir of hope saves the episode. |
 |
| For anyone’s information in terms of Fine’s attack in the spoiler http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asgard According to it, it’s the Home world of Odin. Based on that info I can assess the following part in the spoiler One should know that someone whose protection you use belongs to can and should be able to remove it or use it as deemed. In other words Hibiki was able to break the protection because she is linked to the spell’s Home world ruler. That itself makes her supreme in all magic pertained to that Home world For all magic of a Kingdom’s ruler belongs to them and can be used as suited. Therefore Hibiki was able to break that protection while Tsubasa simply could not. Hope it helps to understand that one element. |
| Well, out of everything in this show that's the one thing I didn't see coming. Now hopefully it just sticks to 'kill Hibiki' rather than killing them all again. Also that twin-tailed background girl was even more annoying than usual in this episode. |
| Good episode,sing to victory!! Hibiki Berserk mode was awesome,now that is a berserk mode!! Tsubasa was awesome this episode,first stopping Hibiki,then the fight with Fine(the ost was awesome btw) that it was great and last....sacrificing herself to destroy the Tower,i really liked her death also was well made. Fine all her plans is she being a hearthbroken bitch that got rejected...typical. The Chore for the rescue!!! Thanks to them Hibiki got her determination and it looks like it bring back to life both Chris and Tsubasa YAY!!! Also twin tailed girl...i really wanted to slap her more that once. Next episode they are going to kick Fine ass and then....maybe die.....will see. |
| Horrible anime |
| Well, damn cliffhanger, but I thought it was necessary So all three of them had new transformation. This is going to be intense. |

Also that twin-tailed background girl was even more annoying than usual in this episode. Or better yet, none of them could die and we could have a happy ending. Here's to hoping. We've had 2 resurrections so far. |

| Bitches be crazy. |
 |
| At the start of the episode I was thinking it was going to be a terrible episode but it turned out good at the end. |
| I hate that bitch who keeps comparing stuff to anime. You're not being funny or clever, I just want to hit you. |
| "My tables-meet it is I set it down That one may smile, and smile, and be a villain." |
| Glorious music. |
| I can't believe that for a sec there, I thought this might end up as a good show. And fuck no, you don't just get freaking obliterated into nothing and then magically resurrect cuz ya heard some chicks sing. Go die already! ... On the other hand, as far as I can recall, Hibiki was dead at the beginning of episode one, right? So, fingers crossed! Also this:  I just... This has got to be the most ridiculous attack animation I've ever seen. Just... What the bloody hell. Dat quality. SYMPHOSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT! |

| I kinda just laughed the whole way through this episode. Not even the characters can take this shit seriously Hoping everyone dies and stays dead in the final ep :P |
Xtc said: i dunno you get bored after a while when all series just have happy ending Plus the biggest let down for this show was how it was going for a darker tone from the first episode foreshadowing one of the characters Deaths and killing off the most interesting person kanade but slowly became a train-wreck after that.katsu044 said: damnit i thought this was the end! once again another cop out and everyones fine! can a brotha get at least one Bad ending for once this season lol still have my hopes for Another and Future dairy.

Xtc said: not necessarily but if your trying to go for a serious tone right off the bat and then do a 360 at the end it's kinda of a let down you know it's just a shame because this was one my biggest surprises of the season but turned out to be one of my biggest letdowns haha.katsu044 said: Xtc said: i dunno you get bored after a while when all series just have happy ending Plus the biggest let down for this show was how it was going for a darker tone from the first episode foreshadowing one of the characters Deaths and killing off the most interesting person kanade but slowly became a train-wreck after that.katsu044 said: damnit i thought this was the end! once again another cop out and everyones fine! can a brotha get at least one Bad ending for once this season lol still have my hopes for Another and Future dairy.

| Wow :D they have hiper-tech supercomputer at school :P but still this show is so bad that it's actualy quite good last episode was in a bland area, but we've returned to "logic" of it and other things that make it funny Fine is one over-talkative villain, even by the standarts of anime-world or maybe she can only recieve information if she will speak it out loud. Who knows. And dat anime-reference girl :P but she wasn't soooo bad this time. BTW I somehow don't think they were resurected for real - ok in this series it is possible but maybe it's more or metaphor... spirits of friends unite with one remaining to fight for love, justice and peace So for all of those flaws 5/5 |

| not a bad episode BUT what brings my piss to a boil is when anime charackters talk about what would/should happen in this situation if they were in an anime !!! we fucking know ur in an anime so crawl thru that damn hole and stfu ! 3/5 5/10 |
KerozinnMar 25, 2012 1:15 AM
| Yay,Chris is alright along with everyone else including "Kanade".See by the end of episode there are 4 lights when they are resurrected. |

| Bet that Hibiki is going to use her Swan Song in the next episode ;) btw, everyone can use the Swan Song only once or am I wrong? |
| Hibiki yelling symphogear with the angst of every high school kid ever was awesome. i dont really know why chris and tsubasa are alive again but whatever, i didn't want them to die in the first place. |
 |
| Is here anybody that likes this anime? I do :) Aww Hibiki is going to die next ep! |
| anime is just average cliche story. hard to realy like it |
| People talking shit about this -.- I too once lost hope but this episode is a good comeback. When Chris and Kanade was alive I was like O.O. We will see in the finale. Somehow this anime reminds me of Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica |
katsu044 said: Haha my thoughts exactly, was just waiting for someone to slap her hard and tell her to get ahold of herself^^Meta bitch-Yumi wasn't annoyning at all and who puts a switch that high up ! And indeed that's the first master power-switch I've seen that was so small and placed in such an inconvenient place xD Seriously hope the whole "resurrect" thing is just a metaphor though... I want Hibiki to go on a final rampage, where she annihilates Finé and destroy her own body in the process. Everyone holding hand laughing as they walk into the sunset and live happily ever after are the worst endings, even for something so cliché as this. |
| Hmm..so when is Hibiki gonna die? |
| Inb4 Ryoko use her swan song and since she has fused with her power there's only Hibiki's that can stand up to it. At the start of ep 1 we've been told that Hibiki died... I don't buy that bullshit anymore since you obviously cannot die in this show if you're a main character. We'll probably be shown the scene in ep 1 where Miku mourn the death of Hibiki only to be shown a bit afterward that Hibiki is still alive and pursue her new found dream in the shadow. 6/10 if Hibiki survive. 7/10 if Hibiki really die with no hint whatsoever of her still being alive. |
 |
| Suddenly lolpower and double resurrection. Right when i started to believe the ending will be just as shown in 1st episode. Now i'm not so sure anymore, but it wouldn't be suprising if all three of them sacrificed themselves to kill Fine in the end. |
| レッツゴー ED イケイケゴーゴー |
| Aren't it more symbolic stuff like their Symphogear that reactivate in Hibiki's? I think Hibiki is still going to die. Not because of the Swan Song, but because of the fusion with the monsterthing... |
| Dutch anime blogger with a love for Ikuhara's antics and proper storytelling. |
| Enjoyable ep. SYMMMPHOOOOGEARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!! - That's epic!! I can replay that scene for over 100 times. I like anime girl (twintail girl )(Yumi) more and more. I would like to see other character like her in another anime. Fine haven't use her swan song yet. If she do, Hibiki kanade and chris may have use their swan song to stop her ,resulting in the death of them. Waiting for last ep. |

| How can something be so bad yet so awesome at the same time? My maiden heart is in turmoil |
| Yes! Chris is back! Ultra Happy! |
| My head is full of fuck. What the hell is this show on about? Good to see Hibiki back on her feet though. Let's tear some shit up in the last episode. |
 |
| It seems the main problem with this show is that the writers are apparently all newbies. The concept is good, but the writing and therefore execution of it continues to fall short. I'm hoping we get a full figma line and not just Hibiki, I would love to have more mecha musume girls to my collection. |
| I really wanna slap that anime comparing bitch so hard right now. Kill her already Jeeeeeeez. This show would've been so much much better if it weren't for the horrible battle animation and lousy story telling. People need to know when to kill characters already, STOP KEEPING THEM ALIVE DAMN IT!!!! |

 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| This show just took a huge dive once Chris and Tsubasa came back from the dead. |
