I tell you what we need:
More ninjas.
More captain.
Dinosaurs.
Dinosaurs with lasers.
NOISE dinosaurs with lasers.
More Miku (maybe with a regular gear as well).
More ZENBU.
More Nana.
More Bikki.
More horribly, generic, yet awesome and catchy J-Pop/electro.
More camp.

I am optimistic we will get most of that, so it should be fine.

I see no reason why I shouldn't enjoy such a gloriously bad anime. I will rate it low and have fun mocking/cherring it on.

Sadly, most popular trainwrecks like Mirai Nikki, Valvrave, Guilty Crown, Code Geass, SAO, etc. have a fanbase that seem to be very keen on proclaiming their anime is worth a bit more than series like this. I believe all these shitstorms wouldn't need to happen if they were a bit more relaxed like Symphogear fans and just accept the flaws their favourite anime has.
Liking bad anime is not (completely) masochistic and liking something bad doesn't erase its' flaws. A simple fact most people do not get when it comes to more popular titles with very vocal bases. People should just accept that not every anime is Monster tier perfect just because they like it.

I read somewhere that all the CD sales combined would put this anime - if the revenue generated from them would be counted just like revenue from BD/DVD sales - around series that sell roughly 25k per volume. Very impressive I must say. Sadly, I cannot find the source anymore.

Not sure if I'm down for a third one of these. The second one started off reasonably strong but kind of regressed to the level of the first series by the end and the animation quality just does not keep up in either of the first two seasons. Both became hard for me to even enjoy as a simple guilty pleasure by the end and became more of an obligation to finish but who knows depending on the season I might still find time to at least try the third one out.

Is this for each season? Or for both seasons combined?

Either way... that's very impressive.

IIRC every CD of S2 sold above 15k (with two Nana Mizuki's above 30k?) so that should be just about Symphogear G.

You've got to be fucking kidding me.

As a general rule I always have to watch sequels, but I hate this show and I was so glad when the second season was over. I mean, there's nothing against people who do enjoy this show, but it's just not my thing and I picked up the first season by accident while it was airing.

And now I have to watch more of it -___-

Yeah, I can use myself as an example, I used to be adamant on proving that Guilty Crown was the most perfect thing ever wow I'm so embarrassed now. I still love the anime but it has several flaws and I've come to accept those flaws.

A third season? Interesting. I have the first two on my PTW so I will watch them eventually.

You aren't making any sense. If you don't like the series then you don't have to watch it.

As for me. I am definitely excited for this.

Really? Seriously though, aside from some decent battles this series is pretty meh at best, no idea how it managed to get a 2nd season none the less a third.

I just random'd across the Symphogear3 anime entry... I'm shocked... and happy! (... adds to plan-to-watch)

Wow lots of whining about the plot-holes in the series... so what? I don't love this series because of the plot. I love it because they sing while fighting in mecha-esque outfits!

I wonder if they'll find an excuse to make Miku and Maria symphogear users again?

I kind surprise that Symphogear have a third season since the noise basically gone and Dr. Ver got arrest I assume they may do a prequel how Kana and Tsubasa became symphogear user. Honestly I rated the first season a higher than it needed consider how some parts are bad and the animation...Well the DVD/BD combine with the CDs make enough money to fund it.

If it continues to slide down from where the 2nd left off, it might count as an artistic achievement.

I was surprised this got a second season, now it's getting a third? Wow.

When the first season was airing I watched four episodes and decided to drop it. It wasn't abysmally bad but it wasn't really good either. Not to mention that I almost never heard a good thing about it. I decided to not check out the second season based on my experiences and all of a sudden everybody likes it? Weird...

It's cool that enough people liked it to get more of what they want, but I won't be checking it out.

BD/DVD sales for the first and second seasons. The second season actually gained more buying fans, which is not what usually happens for sequels.

Bahaha seriously! I'm actually very happy that this got a third season. I didn't enjoy the first very much but the second season was awesome fun. I'm expecting it to raise the bar again with its craziness and amount of cliffhangers. Very excited for this!
