| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Explosive finale! We get tons of action from the Symphogear users and in general, everything came together in one climatic action. Lovely songs used in the finale as well. I guess it was a bit predictable though with the direction of this though... Maria and Tsubasa's combo attack made me laugh a bit. Idk why but probably because of the way it was done lol Glad to see the fighting is over. 7/10. It was fun. |
 |
| Season 4 when? |
| Symphogear says deus ex machina all the way lol. Crazy explosions as always. Symphogear never disappoints when it comes to fighting scenes. Loved that final fight. 7/10 from me. Definitely a guilty pleasure of mine. |
| Amazing finale. More explosions and bigger weapons. Symphogear, you never fail to amaze me. That yuri moment between Elfnein and Carol though. Also, Gyakkou no Flugel with everyone singing as the finale's ending was a nice touch. |
 |
| Glorious Break, basically sums up what i want to say LoL. Not half bad. First half may seem a bit rush, but in fact it is pretty match together with the songs and scene. Especially op song came up same time the giant lion starting to explode, watching the whole thing in HD sure to be Glorious Break LoL. My compliment to Carol with her belief of songs cant save everyone/things at the very end of falling and reject Hibiki's help. Well Hibiki will still save her anyway. And holy sh!t, Elfnien's voice of dainslef when Hibiki activate the mode. Cute voice i guess? Pretty scene with Elfnien and Carol, with both half broken merge into one. Yes our Miku, at least we get a hug from her T.T Believe in Justice and Hold a Determination to Fist =@ |
| It was a fun ride man, Symphogear never dissapoints in their fighting scene and soundtrack. 7/10 Season 4 plz. |
     |
| 7/10 - carol's giant dragon (or something like that) - maria x tsubasa combo attack - hibiki's giant fist - magical explosion that obliterate the town symphogear never cease to amaze me. i think we will get our 4th season. |
| Mahou Shoujo Incident. We have to get another season just to see that XD. This episode was all hilarious. I think the pacing was ok, the X-Drive action last season was about half an episode and that's what we got here too. So many great X-Drive moments though. I mean everyone lending their power to Hibiki was awesome leading to her last attack, Kirika and Shirabe basically fighting in a mechanical Pac-Man, Tsubasa and Maria's combo attack, just hilarity and fun. Will certainly miss this series until hopefully the next time. |

They clearly said a Mahou Shoujo incident in Europe......it might mean actual magic, Alchemy=/=Magic |
| Carol die or did Carol and Elfnein fuse? |
But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
Zapredon said: I suppose you can cay it's both. Carol is definitely dead. The memories that defined her were annihilated in the fight so Carol basically ceased at that point. Seems she basically just downloaded Elfnein's memories into her body which then basically made it Elfnein's body. I wouldn't call it a fusing of minds since there wasn't enough left of Carol's mind to fuse with. Carol die or did Carol and Elfnein fuse? Didn't see any sign of Carol still being in there, though I suppose they could expand on it in another season. |
| Good finale, though, I think it will come a season 4 Actually what Genjuro and Tsubasa's dad-brother-thing were talking about more cases coming up because USA fell, so besides Carol one, there will come more (this is what i understood from their conversation, so probably, 4th season) I kinda wanted a final new song but oh well, maybe they didn't want to make a new song since they made tons of new already for this season. Technically Hibiki got to make the spear of Gungnir, yeah, on her arm but still, and later made it a giant punch, awesome touch. What I was fearing became truth with Elfnein, though, I didn't expect Carol would come to SAVE THE DAY. I think actually they fuzed, and the predominant personality who controls the body is Elfnein, but I think Carol is still there somewhere in her mind. I need season 4 now |

Don't forget the fucking UFO made of saws and scythe fangs (it was also making ufo-like noises) and Maria's sword funnels (a la Gundam, as if Airgetlam couldn't have gotten any cooler as it was). Like, my body was not fucking ready for half the shit I saw in this episode. This is probably the best finale so far. Glad to know they are not backing down and making it clear this time around there will be a sequel. My guess part of what is on that SD card relates to Dr. Ver's research on the Nephilim (as seen by his scribbles in the cell walls) and how to make Linker. I figured that Minase Inori would be the one to stay but I guess they are planning to do like Miku and relegate Carnein to a support non-singing roll.

Genjurou replies about things getting out of control in Europe. This show, at its core, is a mahou shoujo no matter how you spin it, the show is just being self-aware. See you in Season 4! |

| Huh. Was there a new song or were all the songs just used from the opening/ending/and G finale? Anyways, that setup for a sequel. I never imagined that after the first season that this series would continue for so long. Can't say I'm not looking forward to it, especially when the first episode of sequels generally have so much hype attached to them. |
| Intense fight with the final boss lol Hibiki's parents are back together and i wonder if there will ever be a 4th season |
 |
| 8/10 this anime never fail to deliver the out of mind fighting mechanic. |
| That Maria x Tsubasa combo lol. The screen literally slowed down so we could see their boobs press against each other. |
| 10/10. This episode features everthing that made me fall in love with symphogear-the power of friendship,awesome music, and badass fight scenes! Definitely my favorite of the 3 finales. All their x-drive modes were over the top, from Kirika and Shirabe's pincer thing to Maria's funnels. Maria and Tsubasa's combonation attack was neat, and Hibki's final attack was awesome. lso I love that the group song has the same time as the swan song. |
"Fortress Maximus has come himself. Okay! Then I shall get Fortress Maximus to fight me, huh huh huh!" |
| It took me 3 seasons but I think I'm finally warming up to Hibiki. I wonder how long she can play happy family with mommy and daddy though, mom don't look too keen lol. Next season: Miku meets the parents... Maria x Tsubasa obviously canon now. That tsundere blush at the end 0///0 Also, I knew it! Chris-chan is a smart girl <3 |

| All those people dead, and the final scene is Hibiki trying to force her mother into getting together again with that worthless cowardly deadbeat. A terrible ending to a terrible season. |
Gersen said: All those people dead, and the final scene is Hibiki trying to force her mother into getting together again with that worthless cowardly deadbeat. A terrible ending to a terrible season. Well just remind yourself that worthless guy ended up saving Hibiki's life. But hey, I'm sure the MC dying is a pretty minor. In the end all it is, is a step forward. The ending showed it will be a long road towards any reconciliation. That Hibiki would make an effort to help heal her family makes sense after spending all that time punching her way through issues. The ending was good and was so was the season. |
| symphogear some how manages to top it's over the top action each season i don't even know what to expect anymore if we get another season besides the hints of "mahou shoujos " though the action and music despite a lot of it being reused was top notch oddly enough there was to much action for me lol hell whenever i thought we were gonna get some down time those dolls showed up to fuck things up everytime!. have to say the plot this season was the weakest out of the 3 and the whole hibki getting her family back together seems all kinds of bad Mama T doesn't look all to pleased. 7/10 milk it dry for season 4 hype! |
 |
| Symphogear, even if the build up this season was mediocre, this show always pulls through on the climax. 8/10 for finishing strong! |
 |
| I'm very satisfied with this season 2 anime end with great ending and great battle Need season 4 please <3<3<3<3<3<3  |
 |
Jaridan said: Same here. Would've been lovely to get something suited for the occasion versus reused.The only thing that honestly disappointed me was that they just reused a few of the songs that have been used before instead of having a new one in the finale for the finale like in the 2 seasons prior :/ Still, though, I loved how the cut to the vocals during the Glorious Break attack card scene was done. Gave me chills. Writing's still meh but I'm basically a slave to the series at this point and I'm in it for the action and music. I eagerly hope for a season 4 (and hopefully they won't have another bs noise clone if it happens). |
| So Carol gave her life force to extend Elfneins via awesome yuri kiss. Definitely wouldn't have minded some of the other girls kissing, Shirabe/Kirika. Season 4 is basically confirmed and Tachibana family reunited. Good stuff, solid 9/10 from me. Symphogear is amazing. |
 |
| this show is so dumb lol |
| Nah... i liked the previous season... i felt like the final battle had more blast than this one. |
 |
| EPIC does not even BEGIN to describe this episode. A huge drill by Tsuba and Maria? A huge whirly pincher-bug-mech thingy by Kirika and Shirabe? A huge Lion mech from Carol? HIBIKI'S RAINBOW FIST OF LOVE??? yes please Season 4 plz. Suprisse it's coming this fall. plz. need more symphogear. This season was AWESOME and miles above the previous two. But those were awesome as well!! 10/10 |

| This season started promising, but wasn't quite as good as season 2 overall. Still Symphogear is always a pleasure to watch. |
| I loved the finale awesome never fails me and I'm so happy that elfnein is still alive but in the next one I hope miku becomes a symphogear I would really like that it would be so awesome cause like she is with them and never able to help that much I just hope that in the next one she is a symphogear |
| wat the EF! OK no one died...just elfnine absorbing bad Carol happened. 3/5. 7/10. |
 |
| The song for all 6 of them was a bit... slow. I was expecting a bit more. Carol was still psycho-awesome though. And, that is a BIG fist. Weird choice of song to end with... a remix of Zwei Wing's song from the first episode of the first season. They're pretty well setup for season 4 anyway, so here's hoping. Episode: 5/5 (of course) Season: 8/10 (very good, same as the rest of the series) Love it. One of my favorites. Lacking what's needed to get a higher score. |

| Amazing episode, but there is somethings i need to comment on. First off, the animation is just amazing throughout the series, but some mishaps like the last episode. Watching this again on BD will be better for sure. I think GX tried to be safe. The season is just a combination of S1 and S2. Carol looks like the complete version of Fine if she had this power, main characters supposed to be dead, revives the last second. Phonic Gain-Ex Drive used as a final attack etc. At least Carol went all in. And wow Glorius Break as ending song and attack!! So Elfnein was supposed to die due to her extreme rejection state, but Carol saved her by giving her life and body so both of them can remember their father?? Sad end tbh :( Poor Kirika and Shirabe having homework in Summer XD Guess Tsubasa and Maria are officially together now :) Finally Hibiki and her family are going to rebuilt together. Hopefully the father is no longer a wimp this time around. Amazing end to the series, but used too many familiar scenes from past season. Kinda wish Fine would have revived in the end. Would love one more Symphogear. Preferably a movie with a new enemy and stronger and better fights. Would love to see Symphogear with a budget and animation of a movie one :) I give this 9/10. 1st episode and 12th episode were definitely the highlights of the series. Want more Symphogear!!!!! |
| There could easily be another season. This was alright, I think. Some small changes from start to finish. |
 |
| well that was good. really good. Good to know Hibiki's family is starting again. |
RediceRyan said: There could easily be another season. This was alright, I think. Some small changes from start to finish. Yeah, I think this is the kind of setup where you can keep going for a good while. Just need a new threat to spring up. They are basically super heroes and in that case....there's always a new super villain on the horizon. At least the sales look good enough to continue onward. |
| That was a pretty explosive ending to S3. All in all, I don't really think GX lived up to my expectations following the last season, which I loved. I suppose the main reason being that I don't feel interested in Carol as a villain character and her reasons for doing what she did weren't strong enough to justify her actions. I mostly see a stubborn little girl with little likability, at least some of her dolls were cute although forgettable. The old alchemy vs symphogear idea sounds great on paper though not so great in practice. My favourite thing this series added were the ignite modules. I always love the idea of taming a dark power and the new transformations were such a joy to see. Other than that moment, I felt like only the last few eps really moved the plot forward while the rest were filler. Also I loved the cliffhangers in S2 but they disappointed me here. I didn't feel any sense of urgency or peril as a submarine got chopped in half or a character was thrown in a life or death situation. Usually I enjoy how over exaggerated they are but this series left me feeling disconnected at what was happening on screen. GX sticks too close the formula but nonetheless it's an important chapter in Symphogear which ties in the previous seasons as well as introducing some new elements in to the mix. A mild 5/10. (Btw great music too) |
| Exterminate !!! 6/10 |

| S1 still the best season. S2 I didn't like S3 was an intermediate between S1 and S2. Even considering the situation, I still can't believe how Carol interpreted what her father said before him die as: destroy the world or something like that. This makes the reason of the main event of this show somewhat silly. 5-6/10 |

| Show got better as each new season came out. Season 1 was just a mess, season 2 was okay and Season 3 was the best out of the bunch. I still find it hilarious how Carol interpreted her father's words as something as destroying the world... That was the most laughable part tbh. Season 4 set up obviously from the chip, even without reading the news about it being announced, it's easily shown here as Dr. Ver gave them the chip to analyze for whatever reason. Dr. Ver is still the best villain hands down. Loved that guy—until he died by debris. RIP. |
 |
| Well, compared to the symphogear G, season 3 is really bad. At least villains were interesting... maybe with the exception of Carol, her back story is so cliche and boring. On the other hand the dolls were really interesting, Micha's design was one of the best that i've seen in ages and it really sucks that her battle form was only shown for 2 minutes, I thought that she would come back for the last episode. It's a real shame that Auto-Scorers were just killed one by one in order. Can't really say that I enjoyed the drama or the scenes with the power of friendship either. It feels like 6 main characters is a bit too much, I wish that they focused more on Hibiki. The music was fine and the finale wasnt as epic as it was in 1st or 2nd season. Pretty much like Micha, Dr. Ver and his legendary faces didn't get enough screentime. Oh, and I still think that Hibiki's dad is a dick. |
