It's nice to see Shirabe and Kirika taking action this week! I'm glad to see Hibiki recover though. Knew she had more going although she is badly injured. Feeling bad for her right now ;_;

Shirabe and Kirika works very well imo as a team. The song was catchy too. However, I still think the enemies is too strong.

Whew, great episode for Kirika and Shirabe. Those two went all out and did what they set out to do. Even if they couldn't win, they had one hell of a fight.

Time for Chris and Tsubasa to clean up!

Can't wait to see these new enhanced gears in action and how they are related to that magic sword Dainsleif.

Also look forward to when Hibiki gets her Gungir back.

I wonder if she will ever go berserk mode like last two seasons (even if reason behind it was gone).

Definitely decided to give Shirabe a new weapon for this season. I guess they felt that purely giving her saws wasn't quite enough and decided to give her an extra weapon she could wield. Her hands were kind of free while fighting anyways. Still a kind of funny choice to go with.

I'm hoping to see some improved firepower for the gears rather than a simple passive boost. Will have to see what Chris and Tsubasa can do next episode.

New and improved symphogears ( I hope ) for the girls. Awesome ep with Kiri and Shirabe on the spotlight. Awesome to see how Tsubasa and Chris save Shirabe at the end. Looking forward to seeing Tsubasa and Chris next week!

Not ashamed to admit I sat there clutching my rock the entire episode, and its not even the Yuri.

Yoyo is cool, I liked DESS's song better though, unlike for G, and they're not even trying to be subtle any more.

Duet ED, guess it'll be a BR special like Orbital Beat ZABABA and the two songs at the end of G?

Carol's little rhyme at the dinner table was the cutest~

Shirabe and Kirika fighting the HibiMiku powerhouse for the position of OTP. Their Duet was mint and I love the Yoyo.

Chris and Tsubasa come in with their own duet, you could really hear each of their themes in the song Hibiki + Miku duet inbound. Although apart from Radiant Force and Exterminate I'm don't think it'll be topping G just yet. Also the Latin chanting whenever the dolls are on the hunt is ominous as f*ck.

Shirabe's song is Genocide Saw Heaven (Kirika is Overkill Scythe Hell). Together its Just Loving X-Edge.

Tsurugi + Zenbu = Bayonet Charge. There will be prizes for those who got that (the name I mean, if that wasn't obvious).

(That typo never happened)

And I thought Ep04 was the best episode after 01.

The "lets kiss" lyric of Shirabe and Kirika, wow.
Glad to see TsubasaChris get some light, tho myself actually ship TsubaALL.

The new ending song gave me quite a hype, the same with the Kiri x Shirabe duet.
Let the shipping ship sail.
And also, i'm starting to expect the Autoscorers 's paring.

The new ed song is cool, it really picks up at the second half.

So glad Shirabe and Kirika are going to be alright. Didn't actually expect them to get killed off, but you never know. Still concerned about their overdose nosebleeds causing damage later on. Best pair right there.

Yesssss Kirika and Shirabe action! Kirika has been my favorite since Symphogear G but after seeing Shirabe attack with a RAZOR YOYO (so badass!!!!!) I think I might like them both now!

Nice symphogear upgrade, but I'm a little sad that they don't look any different :(

Liking that OP more than the previous seasons' OPs.

Given that Kirika's, Shirabe's and Gungnir's crystal got destroyed, how will they get them back? They mentioned the core of the symphogear's secrets so maybe they can remake them....

3 things can happen:
Hibiki will just randomly summon it again somehow
Dansleif will come to Hibiki's aid (and may or may not cause the above as well)
Shirabe will channel Fine's spirit and tell them how to make symphogear's

Which reminds me.....what happened to Durandal?

Amazing episode!

Nice to see Carol's past and why she wanted to destroy the world. Still i was surprised how early Project Ignition started and they were able to finish it within the episode :O

Kirika and Shirabe!!! Linker overdose!!! Glad to see some more screen time for them!

They showed some new moves, but shame it didn't do much for Alchemy based enemies.

Glad Chris and Tsubasa are back!!!!! Love the ED song!! I really hope they release Glorious Break and this song in one album :)

Can't wait for the next episode!!

I've mentioned this in some prior episode topic but Fine is gone after she sacrificed herself to save Shirabe in G.

Durandal is buried deep in storage somewhere in Division 2.

Shirabe and Kirika did well in holding off the Micha, but they almost got pawned...thanks to:
The Enhanced gear! here we go! but only 2 enhanced, for Tsubasa & Chris only.
Hibiki go rest, you're still wrecked! you'll get your enhanced also but not now. Let the others shine!
5/5.

After watching the episodes after this one. I wonder what is this "one" the Autoscorers are trying to choose and are planning for? Micha mention saying how Shirabe or Kirika could've been "possible candidates or choice" for their plans, but decided not to.

I wonder who they plan to choose and what they plan to do with her? The one they pick.

All I figure that it's going to be bad.

Carol looks incredibly bored there. The little backflash to her sitting at the table with Hohenheim her dad was funny though.

This fight also showed how much Hibiki powered up. She easily handled Micha, and it didn't look like she as holding back. Why use a ruse if you can simply overwhelm your opponent. They didn't so before nor after so i don't think Hibikis fight was either, and yet she totally overwhelmed Micha.

A Yo-yo.... A very Unconventional Weapon choice... Much like a Flail.
Attached Saw into YO-YO and It's hers...

It realize that Kirika and Shirabe Lacks a Defence and more Offence. So If they dish out A lot and The Enemy is still Standing then they are fked.

Maria From Season 2 Had A cloak that was more Defensive. it's gone now.
Front Hooks...Oh yeah...

Carol/Elfnein's dad looks like a young Hohenheim from FMA.

Shirabe's transformation looks better this season. She looks so cute! I love seeing her lickable armpits while she's showing off those yoyos. She looks nice naked, too. I will screw her!
