ha! another thought which I had - well from different place :)
now everything is open for Miku to get her Symphogear or whatever it is called

in first episode she mentioned (in the grave scene) that they were fighting together, so it is possible

and I think that Hibiki goes to berserk mode while facing an enemy and here it looked like her main concern is to save Miku, so going wild and Boom!-Boom! maight have been blocked by it

Glad to see Tsubasa and Hibiki getting along better. It seems to me Miku thinks Tsubasa and Hibiki are an item, which is no good since I ship Miku x Hibiki.

I'm also glad to see that Hibiki is learning and growing stronger. I sort of despise MC's who are weak and worthless.

Went back over that scene a few times but... well there wasn't any mention of that at all. She talked bout how Hibiki kept singing till the end even while coughing up blood. Started crying bout missing her. Then finished on a "my best friend kept singing" ...so... she wasn't including herself anywhere in there.

I dunno personally I think she'll never get a symphogear. Her relationship seems similar to Nanoha's school friends imo. Well... if she does it'd be after Hibiki dies I'd think.

I thought Miku was gonna turn towards the path of the yandere there but shes found out now so probably not :p

Hibiki is <3 Her latest attack was cool too (even better than that blasting zone attack she stole off Squall in the previous ep ) Hope she sticks with her fists instead of that big ass sword.

Couple things. The glowing, naked Kanade made me roll my eyes. To be expect, I guess, but that doesn't make it any less silly. Don't know about you but I've never pictured someone who's dead in my head naked and glowing.

Was moving to the roof really necessary? It doesn't seem too odd as a viewer but look at how it would have been for the characters. Hibiki asks something, they pause, leave the room, walk all the way to the roof, and continue as if the question was just asked. Weird, just weird. I know the scene change was for effect but you know.

Again, the Hibiki fighting better thing. I don't see it. Sure, she's more determined but she seems to be fighting exactly the same as she always has. I guess I'm missing something but it's not rocket science, it's hand to hand combat. Punch, kick, block, dodge, repeat.

Well, despite all that I did like the episode a bit so it's fine.

What did Hibiki want from chris, a date? she's such a flirter lol , she already has her own harem! (?)

Besides the "yuri atmosphere", the American conspirations and the bad songs and average animation while fighting, What's with this anime that I don't get bored while watching it? xD

Well Tsubasa finally changed into being friendly with Hibiki, can't say I was looking forward to this happening. It just happened so suddenly. Guess it was nice to see her giving her tips and see how she sucks at housework stuff lol.

Finallllyyy the secrets outta the bag now and Hibiki is caught red handed by Miku. Meh I am half interested into seeing where this will go. And wow Hibiki sure got strong in a hurry.

Hmmm I hope Chris will come out of all this fine and maybe even switch sides. Her past was just =/, felt bad for whats shes been through. Dno why but I somehow already like her character.

(rewatching)

I had totally forgotten about why Hibiki punches the noise... She can't materialize her armed gear (spear) so she focuses that energy into her punch. It all makes sense now!

At least Hibiki won't have to keep her secret from Miku anymore.

Good to see how Tsubasa is warming up to Hibiki. Although it's sad that Hibiki and Miku are growing father apart ;_;

Great episode!!

Hibiki is getting stronger each day. Glad she can handle herslef on her own. I can't believe Tsubasa is no longer angry with her :O

It's not like they resolve things, but i guess too much hate is bad to you.

Poor Miku. But at least she knows what Hibiki is doing behind her back.

Can't wait for the next episode!

Wish I visited this board back in 2012 to fight all these people talking shit about Aoi Yuuki's singing, haha. She has such high, infectious energy, even if the technical side is not great.

Also this was the episode I officially fell in love with Hibiki, such headstrong determination and genkiness. She was such a baddass in this fight.
And she subscribes to the Nanoha school of making friends through beating the shit out of them, which makes for entertaining television.

I'm surprised by how well Tsubasa is moving around after using that Symphogear technique that killed her friend before. Did it really just have to do with how fast she got treatment?

Hibiki doesn't want to give up on her normal life and become a weapon like Tsubasa, but she also wants to do her absolute best to defeat Noise. Hard compromise. Of course, it'd also be helpful if Miku could stop conveniently inviting her to do things whenever she feels like

"My weight is...I'll tell you when we're better friends!" :3

"Let's talk! We can't fight each other!" God dammit, Hibiki, some people aren't able to be saved. Though I do have hope for this girl in particular.

So now Miku knows that her friend's a musical superhero. Let's see how much danger this actually puts her in/how pissed she is about having this secret kept from her.

Poor Chris is kinda like the butt monkey of this series, she can’t catch a break. Oh well, I guess it’s back to the electric rack for her.

As for Miku, she needs to get away from Hibiki. All Hibiki is doing is breaking her heart and causing confusion.

When they’re just sitting around talking about random shit in their base, it bores me. When they start singing though, and shit starts to go down, it’s the most entertaining thing ever. As long as the highs really outshine the lows, I’m going to get through all five seasons of this

I want to smell that laundry! It must smell heavenly after those girls had sweated so much from all that running.
Tsubasa is such a messy girl. Anyway, I want to sniff all of her worn bras!
Hibiki's "getting to know each other" intro was hilarious.

This show needs to stop it with all of the pancake propaganda. 0/10 episode my day is ruined.
When a pancake lover does something: "Outrageous vicious crime"

When a waffle lover does something: "That means it is not illegal"
