Ah, Hibiki and her friends engages in one final battle in this season's finale.

I'm glad they didn't leave out any of the main character and everyone joins in the party. The battle cinematics for this episode imo lived up to my expectations. Hibiki in particular brings her best into that fight. It's also cool to also see the rest of her friends and comrades singing in union together.

Pretty solid episode.

Solid 10

The series ended with quite a bang and I'm really surprised that Miku survived, I can't see this getting a season 6 (this ended far too well) but a spinoff may happen if it sells.

I feel that we'll get a new generation of Symphogear users in a few years. For now, I think this episode serves as the closing chapter to Hibiki Tachibana's story.

And so this is the last episode of Symphogear all together. Damn, this was such a nice ride for the past 7 years.
I cannot believe it got better and better and they just never knew to stop.

This was one of the best ending episodes they could of given the viewers.
Can't wait for the LIVE concert, but I guess they won't announce any project (TV Anime-wise)...

The score went quite high since Episode 12 and this is the best season of Symphogear in my opinion. After that GX!

Bye Symphogear, I will miss this project but the songs will always be in my heart or on my CDs, haha.
EDIT: My only wish would be for them to animate Miku's transformation in XV-Style...

They could at least give me a movie to enjoy Mikugear a little longer.

Goodbye Symphogear. I doubt I will meet another seiyuu cast like this one again. Nana and co are probably retiring soon.

Oh boy, do I have some bones to pick with this episode but I'll keep it to myself. This being the last episode of the Symphogear franchise people want to share their feelings about it, so I don't want to annoy others with my rants.

The only thing I'll say is that I expected much more grandeur and "over the top-ness" from this episode, so this felt a little bit weak for a franchise finale.

That being said, I have a feeling this won't be the last time will be seeing Symphogear. We might not get any more seasons, but movies and OVAs are still a possibility.

I have to say this, I was crying like "it's over.... NOOOOOO!!!!!"

With this ending I can't believe that it's the ending.

The fights scenes, man I can't believe that Carol join for this, it was awesome and when Hibiki embrace Miku, a good lot of tears came from my face.

Carol is gone...... NOOOOOO!!!!!!

I can't also believe that Miku join with the Shenshoujing faust robe to help the main six Symphogears, and like the number 7 gonna made curious so I'm gonna search for something about this.

The songs, holy shit I was surprised and now it made happy.

I love how the shows handle with the terms of mythologies here, like it was history class but much better.

In the Yggdrasil core, Everyone is here, thanks everyone for rescued the humanity future.

When Shem Ha trapped all the girls,I was like "Holy crap not again", but also was like when Fine was defeated in season one, but the words of Hibiki and Miku, she dissappear forever.

I have to say this, when I was searching a good anime to watch, I across Symphogear, I was happy because Nana Mizuki was here, but now I love this series with all my heart like with Heartcatch Precure.

Now it's over, I'm gonna miss this masterpiece but still hopping for another thing from this series.

I'm sorry but Senki Zesshou Symphogear XV is the best anime of this season summer 2019.

Did the Symphogears really gone forever?! I don't knowbut also I don't want to believe it is true.

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to listen to Symphogears songs right now while playing with my 3DS, again X'D.

The only thing I don't like is that writers obviously had to execute the most overused cliché in anime and still somehow redeem those three cunts, whole nothing that they did was even close to atoning for murdering 100k innocent people, children included, for simple amusement.

And if I remember correctly, the first or second season also ended with "The End" card in the last frame, so there is always some hope.

I expected over the top hype but this episode did not deliver on that. But what we got was serval emotional gut punches in the space of 20 minutes which is even better.

I want to cry and scream at the same time. I don’t want it to be over.

Honestly. I'm happy with this neutral ending. This means whatever Hibiki will say to Miku depends on the fan's imagination. So i hope that there will be less fight between fans. Since it always about if the ships is canon or not. This ending has giving freedom to both shippers an fans that like or doesn't like the Hibi x Miku ship.

Yea, but when they were presented as irredeemable, evil bitches, who, unlike other antagonists, were not even pretending or trying to make their cause look anywhere remotely good, I thought we'll finally get something different.
But old habits die hard, I guess.

And so it's over, this has to be the one of the best endings I've seen, It paid respects to every part / character from all it's seasons, heck something as basic as Hibiki's "I must be cursed" played a role, love how the poster of this season was the very final scene, I don't want this series to ever end if I'm honest, it has so much passion, love and care from it's fans and creators.

I was a little bit underwhelmed by how KH3 ended but this show is exactly what I was hoping for, I wish as everyone mentions, that after live 2020 we get new info and that XV was the end of Fine's Arc and the beginning of a new one, just like KH3 was the end of Seeker of Darkness.

Hate this tease at the end, just say the 3 words we all want to hear from you Two!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fun fact: Seven songs brought together to save the world

Seven years to bring this series to this point where it could end across five seasons.

Nice. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do without Symphogear in my life. I more than likely will binge the entire series again and again because it is definitely in my top 10. It was truly an amazing ride that was more than just a simple anime, it was the definition of art that combined so much talent into one project. I feel like the ending isn't that resolved...you still have a "What happened to the Gears?" "What future entails for the users and for SONG?" Like a proper epilogue to send off the characters would be nice but all I can say is...thank you for the past 7 years.

Now then...time to go work on a tribute art piece to Symphogear and do a guitar cover of Metanoia. Feel free to add me or message me for links once it's done.

This was a pretty decent episode. The Shem Ha fight was WAAAAAAY too short though for being the final fight of the entire franchise. Half an episode really?!?! Adam got at least 3 building up his fight.

They tried to make up for Miku's little involvement at the end there but too little too late in my opinion. However she did look absolutely beautiful in that gear with what looked like a vail. Sucks we didn't get a song from her.

Miku is the biggest disappointment of XV with her having WAAAY too little screen time especially towards the end. I hoped we'd get Miku gear in like episode 11 or 12 so she could fight more.

This episode kind of just felt rushed but I guess Symphogear does that a ton anyway so whatever.

But that last scene though. We've been waiting for sooooo long to finally here what these "feelings" that Hibiki and Miku have AND THEY END WITH THAT SHIT!!!! Seriously what a cop-out! JUST TELL US!!! That felt unsatisfying as hell being a humungous HibiMiku fan. You literally just had to put three words in and it would be great.

I was hoping they'd at least make up for Miku not being around much by making them kiss or something which they even teased but NOPE!

Overall XV was greatly disappointing final season but It had its good stuff like animation and music.

Im going to go re-watch season 1 to relive my original Symphogear hype then I might re-watch XV as I might be more forgiving of it after a re-watch. (Probably wont be)

Yeah Im really looking forward to see that. Its my last hope to see their "feelings".

In the OVAs as well they've had a lot more fun and embraced the characters gayness XD. Particularly Miku is way more open in the OVAs than she is in the series. Like that one scene where she's taking pictures of Hibiki on the beach lol.

Cant wait for those and for them to elaborate on these "feelings" they built up all of XV.

ANIMATION OVERLOAD! And I didn't expect Carol to get in on the fight too!

METANOIA? More like SHINING FINGERRRR!!!!!

THEY DID NOT! AND WHY DOES MIKU'S HEADGEAR LOOK LIKE A WEDDING VEIL!?

Woohoo! We get to see everyone again! And aww, Fine and Enki. Man, if they were going to pull them out, I was hoping that they would have used the past characters as stands for the gears, silently supporting them during the final battle. It would have been even more epic and emotional that way.

Symphogear XV....well what can I say? It's Symphogear being Symphogear. XV was defintely iffy in some parts, but they definitely put all their work into the animation and all the colors in this last episode despite the surprisingly consistent animation quality that this season has put out. And for being the last episode of the series, it leaves that feeling that there's even more to come. I'm expecting all kinds of OVAs to be made, and now that the series is over, they can take all the time they need to make them. Looks like XDU is going to get a lot of content before Symphogear Live 2020. We can only wait and see now. It's just so unfortunate that I had to lose an ear this year, so I couldn't appreciate the music as much, but I really thank Satelight for creating Symphogear and having me experience it. I hope this sells well so that Satelight can get some leverage for the future. Thank you Symphogear staff.

This was the ending Symphogear deserved, except.

1 Crunchyroll didn't translate the damn songs. Hopefully they go back a fix that.
2 Just let them confess already. It's not even a matter of liking the ship or not. After all of that build up, and them both wanting to confess feeling they haven't had the guts to put into words, anything else would have been out of left field.

Carol is really an important character this final season.
Without her they would all get turned to silver or if they survived the silver attack.. they're all still fucked, because they won't know how to properly destroy the core of ygdrassil if Carol did not tell Elfnein how to do it. Also turning silver into gold is badass!

Shem-ha saved Hibiki in the end. I guess she was befriended too.

Hibiki Miku ship sailed at last. Waited years for this. :)

What this show was back then, and what it is now... WHAT. A. FUCKING. IMPROVEMENT

Everything about this season was epic, i don't even remember a time when i DIDN'T have a single goosebump in every episode. That has got to say something of how i feel about this season already, right? Everything was wild, action packed, story driven, character driven... DAMN! It didn't even catch a break, and that's just how i love it!

It's a solid 9/10, definitely one of the best anime airing this year, i dare say it.

Despite it’s flaws. XV was great experience. The Symphogear franchise has my spot in my all time anime franchises of all time. We still have the newest Symphogear Live coming soon, and who knows? Maybe they might tease a new season, movie, or a new generation of gears. Aoi Yuuki, Nana Mizuki and the rest of the cast kicked ass these past seven years with their acting and singing chops. I still appreciate your thoughts on this season. Twas a fun seven year ride.
