Starting Symphogear G, I honestly didn't expect much. I thought the first season was a mix of fun but awful writing, and a few enjoyable songs. Come the first episode of this season, I am instantly hooked and feel like shouting "Fuck yeah!" every episode. I've liked nearly every song in the second season and I feel the writing isn't a trainwreck like first season. I love how I'm actually in some way rooting for the antagonists for G for have their own motivations and troubles, where as in the first season I just felt Ryoko/Fine was full of shit and just there for the sake of having an enemy.

Apparently though, after discussing with some people, a lot of people actually found season 1 much better. There are some fans that stated season 2 doesn't have the fun and enjoyment derived from the first. It's actually quite baffling to me, as even though I understand there are OPINIONS, I just felt season 2 was just superior to the point of objectivity.

So what are your guys thoughts? Have you enjoyed more or less of this season, or is it the same?

Lets just hope we don't get another season...

Season 1 was kinda okay. But Season 2 with all those drama and what not, it makes me to think its plain stupid.

Season 2 is better. With the story cause so far each episode I am wanting to see the next episode right this instant. The previous time I was like this was with Sword Art Online, Gundam 00S2, Shakugan No Shana S2, Macross Frontier, and Sakurasou No Pet No Kanojou. As you can see with all the animes I watched in my lifetime that is a small number. The series was supposed to be a total of 24 episodes. So they moved it to 12 and then thought it was to short and more could be explored so they gave us season 2 to fill that gap.

I preferred Season 1's plot, plot progression, and character writing.

Maria, Kirika, and Shirabe were introduced this season, but they don't really have a lot of personality in this specific season anyways, later seasons fix it, but in this season, they felt a little flat.

Dr. Ver was an okay antagonist, but all he ever did was make bad decisions for the sake of making the plot move. He works, but I don't find him intimidating, or enjoy him as a villain

I think while the animation has improved, it lacks the charm of the previous season so that it's just okay for the most part.

This season was definitely a roller coaster, but I think going back through both seasons that I prefer the first, especially since the first season has a strong "humble beginnings" feel to it
