THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
A very lighthearted episode with the usual cast hanging out. The little tea party they have together is a chance to get to know each other more.

In particular, Shenlin Kuo had more screen time with her character. I think this show is trying to flesh out the main cast as much as possible. I kinda like her character, seems like she's the type that is open minded with confidence.

That blond girl with the black cat was funny the gap was expected tho.
Especially when the cat appeared.

The other characters looked ok but i wonder how this group will do.

I also wonder why they are all using Nokia's 3310 those phones are ancient.

Laughed a lot at Tazusa (the girl with cat) thinking she's the same voice as BanG Dream's Chuchu.

Lily doesn't think of it that much but she really hits the jackpot with her first friends Kaede and Fumi (the local journalist, character database and Assault Lily Twitter account admin).

I also wonder why they are all using Nokia's 3310 those phones are ancient.
They can throw it at the Huge and it's the Huge who got damaged.

Also, representative of Vietnam, because that's where Azone is producing the doll costumes.

Another Schutzengel partner...and it's Wang Yujia and Kuo Shenlin. The tea party sure acquints them together with the building large cast going forward.

Riri is STILL infatuated by Yuyu...and the rumour of them being a Yuri couple sure does not fit with her hidden personality well.

The naming convention though...

Still trying to flesh the world-building with the many characters, and that's A-OK for now, while being light-hearted at the same time. Tazuya is gap moe with the black cat moments, and Riri and Fumi going around forming their small legion group for fighting against the Huges.

@Aversa I'd thought they'd update with the modern 3310s but nope. Ancient figures are they. @nseika hope this stays true to the calling.

Still an OK episode, and reaffirmation of the relationship between partners, not like it's a bad thing. No THICC shots this episode...

The naming convention is terrible and screams chuuni with either ridiculous kanji combination or intentionally uncommon reading.

Actually surprised they produce anime of this. Thought it would just be a fan service anime (as in affirmation to those who are already collecting the dolls)

Yujia and Shenlin are just roommates if I’m not mistaken. Not official partners like Lily and Yuyu.

Great episode as usual. “Yuri” seems to be the talk of the school and Riri helping her classmate out with her sniping training was nice. Pretty cool setup episode.

So we’re finally starting to get into the thick of things https://imgur.com/a/rkmVfRb with exploring what exactly the Huge are and what they want. Next episode looks like we’ll be getting some backstory, can’t wait.

The biggest surprise was the fact that the chairman is a guy, so men do exist in this universe lol

Fumi so happy to be invited to the legion. Kaede, of course has other reasons for joining. lol

did not expect Miriam to join in as well. Now they have someone who can fix charms in their group. ^__^

Yuyu did not expect so many people to join Riri's legion. Now, she's a bit uncomfortable?

Ando, the girl who likes cats is so nice and funny, she even has catfood ready. xD

I've wonder what is the Huge's information in that report? I thought that maybe Huge is manmade things, a weapon made by a certain country.

Yuyu+Riri=Yuri. Yes I agree!!

It is now time for team Yuri to get their legion. Keade, Fumi and Miliam have already joined the legion as well as the Yujia and Shenlin the center of attention this episode. Tazusa part with the cat was quite funny especially when Fumi saw her cute side.

When I saw the chairman was a guy I was surprised cause I thought this show was gonna be all girls but you know it is OK.

Good episode :)

This episode was great. This series is yuri enough, and now Yuyu and Riri's names were spelled so it would be written as "yuri". Also, the most powerful weapon known to mankind makes its appearance in Assault Lily: The indestructible Nokia 3310!

They are focusing too much on Yuri baiting. And thighs fetish.
I know that to each their own and they are cartering to the target audience, but most people would rather see some compelling story and decent writing.
So far this is a complete Symphogear ripoof, including exact same characters.

Yuyu and Riri's pairing is called Yuri, huh? Honestly, that's a perfect name for them, in more ways than one. XD

Aside from the funny moment with Tazusa going fan-girl crazy over the appearance of a cute cat, Riri's recruitment drive for her and Yuyu's new legion was going pretty smoothly. Wang and Shenlin make for an interesting duo, though. Since Wang wasn't sure whether she wanted to join or not, Shenlin gave her a tough test to prove her worth.

Not only did Wang pass this test, the animation quality during her sniper bullet rounds and Shenlin's successful deflections looked really good. I also liked the OST used for the whole scene, too. =)

The plot seems to be moving again, as we saw the chairman getting vital info about the Huge. I'm expecting a mixture of seriousness and comedic moments in the next episode, which I look forward to seeing, as always.

But seriously I like it better than Symphogear. The animation is better and it's overall more enjoyable. There's a decent amount of fan service, and I can't comment on story this early. But overall in the long run, I'd like to see more of it (atleast it's not boring so far).

Couple name "Yuyu + Riri = Yuri", even with all the yuri vibes this show has going on, how in the world did I fail to realize this could be a thing XD

Those sniper bullet rounds being shot from Wang and blocked by Shenlin were amazing to look at! Great animation there. I do like Shenlin a lot!

Pretty relax episode other than the shooting at the end. Yuyu definitely underestimated Riri for setting up her own legion so easily.

So Yuyu and Riri team name is "Yuri".

It's time to form their own legion and things are going smoothly, which surprised Yuyu a lot. Never underestimate Riri.

The scene with Tazusa and the cat was funny.

Yujia got introduced in this episode. The part with Shenlin's test was pretty good. Yujia has impressive skills.

I don't have a lot to say so far except to point out that both art directors and the assistant director have worked heavily on KyoAni work, so I really see this as sort of a crossover between KyoAni and Shaft.

When I look at it that way, first of all, it's a dream come true for me because I love both studios, but second, I feel like I understand better what they're doing with the characters and style of character development. It's really reminiscent of something like Hibike! Euphonium where they're all learning about themselves and furthering their relationships, with the backdrop of fighting the HUGE, as opposed to it being entirely focused on the action.

but we got to see some team building and everyone is flocking like doves to Riri though they almost did Kaede dirty taking her for granted shes been there since day one and she wasnt the first they asked lol


Shenlin rose to the top of favorites so far girl is kinda scary its always the calm ones to watch out for her mock battle with her Lily some nice eye candy i cant get over how a show like this looks so good at times

Also funny how she tried telling everyone it's Yuyu's legion, yet everyone just call it Hitotsuyanagi Team.

Rather than Symphogear, aren't the setup in general closer to Mai Hime ?


About Fumi, she's a great asset. That girl is a walking Assault Lily encyclopedia.

Got to catch up with characters from the toy lines and the novel. We’re not even including the theatre stage only (the group with brown pink uniform) and students from Tokyo’s schools.

Even among the background characters there are characters from the Custom Lily line.

Tazusa will be the last lily forming part of the legion

Okay, Riri's Legion recruitment felt easy so far, having 7 out 9 cute girls already on her first day recruiment. Well, no doubt, they just loved loli so thats why they couldn't resist Yuri invitation xD. Whos the last 2 girls? That black cat and green hair loli? Well lets see the continuity on the nwxt episode, then!

Not much i can comment here beside the recruitment attempt of Riri. Her couple name with Yuyu? Lol. Like i said before, even her school name aggree with the bait and took it all in an instant, so i don't surprised at all if they had a couple name as Yuri xD. I really curious about their Legion name, was the name used Yuri too or not? Only time knew whats goin on in the future....

About the eastern name, Wang Yujia, its a little bit surprised for me that her family lived far away and used such a western place like Iceland as their homeland. Welp, they even didn't care much to explained the world situations after Huge attack. So, let my surprise only stop into that matter for a while. At least Kuo Shenlin had a nice design and just attached on her personality faster than i thought. Yeah, her eyes, and her calm and cool act felt so good on my heart xD. Their skill, tho. Its so useful, i believed. Look at the composition of Riri's Legion so far. One as a dedicated sniper, combined with a heavy guardian like Shenlin, then having a nice intel gatherer like Fumi. Kaede, Yuyu, Riri as a front attacker. I think its good formation, with an additional two more defender their team could be so great as an assault Lily!

Well, left aside that, the explanations of Moyu about Huge was really intriguing me in the end. When she finally wanted to explain more about world building, they skipped it for later. Thanks! Not gonna mentioned Yuyu transformation, tho. She had a nice conversation with her room mate~

I think this is a good episode, even though there were several moment that had missed the impact. Its still a good progression, at least for me.

Maybe Mai Hime is just too old ^^;;

Besides, the charm of Symphogear is getting really over the top and ridiculous it goes full turn and become fun. and the songs of course.
I really curious about their Legion name, was the name used Yuri too or not? Only time knew whats goin on in the future....
They seem to use Norse names for the team.
Ichi's team (where Araya, the girl who challenged Yuyu in eps 1 is member of) is Alfheim, which in the story setting, one of the best Legion internationally, although they're 2nd generation and the previous one got disbanded. Yuyu also used to be member of 1st generation Alfheim. I hope the script team don't pull a typical pushing them into a pinch just so the "newbie team" can show their strength by saving the day.
The Legion where Shiori (the twin braid girl Lily interviewed) is called Reginleiv. According to Fumi in Twitter, it's the largest Legion in their school with 18 members (the regulation only set minimum of nine members, but no maximum limit)

Lily's Legion is... Radgridr, or just Hitotsuyanagi Team.

Their skill, tho. Its so useful, i believed. Look at the composition of Riri's Legion so far. One as a dedicated sniper, combined with a heavy guardian like Shenlin, then having a nice intel gatherer like Fumi. Kaede, Yuyu, Riri as a front attacker. I think its good formation, with an additional two more defender their team could be so great as an assault Lily!
There's a limited variation of rare skills among the Lily actually, rather than everyone having one of a kind skill. As if it is written for playable game system to balance the character creation option.

Based on their profile from elsewhere, Shenlin is not even using her rare skill to slash those bullets. Her skill is for different purpose.

The pairs are more personal guardianship like relationship, and it’s their school’s tradition. Other schools got their own take on it.

9 members in a Legion is the minimum number by regulation. It’s related to minimum number of members needed in their most common tactic to handle Huge (that passing the projectiles like in episode 3). They can also have more than 9. On average, a Legion usually got 13 members including reserve.

Also, a Legion need at least one member with Register rare skill (like Kaede). It’s an all around buff skill, also come with a lower rank observation skill (smaller area than Fumi’s Eagle Eye). According to Fumi, Lily otaku usually check who’s the Register in a Legion.

I like the 2 new characters and their introductions were pretty good.It's pretty hard to keep up with all the characters, since they keep introducing more and more left and right.

But man Shaft is doing more amazing work with the animation. The little shooting scene was so pretty and cool at the same time. The opening and endings visuals are really good as well.

And once again, then thighs were amazing. Thank you for the meal Shaft :D
