Come decide what other non-seasonal series I'll be watching alongside Symphogear on a weekly basis (if I don't vibe with them after giving them a fair chance, I might drop them FYI)~
I'd appreciate a vote, even if you don't have much interest in the current choices (of which are wholly decided by me "this time")!
2022-11-22 17:00:10 +0000 UTC View PostHey, bet this came as a surprise, but I did promise to make both happen "sooner rather than later" and I made sure it would be before the month rolls over so everyone has time to think about the new options.
So what's exactly different?

CRIMSON SUPERNOVA! Let slip the hounds of war, the fragile peace between Creatureland and Maidalien in Akihabara is about to shatter as the spark known as Manami, a delinquent maid, seeks vengeance against the Oinky Doink Cafe for what they did to the Moon Bunny Cafe during the premiere! Nagomi's trauma also worsened, thanks to Nerula and what happens... even if I feel like it needed more time to have the proper shock & emotional weight it was going for.

LUM'S SO CUTE! I adore every outfit she's worn thus far, truly an incredible waifu with impeccable fashion sense! It was great spending time with Kagura once again, but the highlight's easily Lum's efforts to save Ataru from public embarrassment... it was really sweet, even if he didn't deserve it. It does seem like we're one step closer to a true relationship forming between them though! What did you think of this episode?

CURRY IS LOVE, CURRY IS LIFE! Sure, it's a slower episode, but it's important to take a proper breather after the Goblin Dungeon excitement, so I welcome the cooking show and the hilarity it brought! It did make me want to eat curry after all. I do wonder how the fight with the Blue Cat mercenary will turn out, it was wild seeing Fran so angry. What did you think of this episode?

A HEARTBREAKING OUTCOME! Studio Bones absolutely nailed it, the animation talent brought on was outstanding, it was easily the coolest & showiest Dimple's ever been in the series... and I can appreciate that, given what occurs, even if it does make me so emotionally distraught. I can't say I was expecting this arc to turn out like this, but it's easily one of my favorite of the entire series. What did you think of this episode?

GAMMA'S HILARIOUS! No lie, watching her fall down the stairs, cutting away as we hear her reactions in the background while focusing on Cid's deadpan expression, only to then cut back to a casual, facedown Gamma... it gave me Konosuba vibes, a good sign for the comedy! I can also appreciate the different mindsets of Iris & Alexia when it comes to both the Cult & Shadow Garden, a nice touch based on their own experiences. What did you think of this episode?

SPICY INTIMACY & THE GUN DEVIL! I wasn't expecting that twist with Power, I'll admit it, so I feel bad on Denji's behalf and how it did sorta traumatize/break the man... but holy shit, Makima decided to be spicy with him, almost killed him with a heart attack too! I'm so excited to see what the Gun Devil, the "big bad" of all the Devils, will look like & if Denji can actually fight it, considering how strong & fast it is... Himeno's also a delight to watch!

TRAGEDY STRIKES! I swear, who thought that the Happy Birthday song was too joyful and decided to make it so painful in this series... if I had a nickel for every time this song made me cry, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but still very strange that it happened twice in one series. I mean, yeah, it was only a matter of time before real painful moments hit, but c'mon... THIS WAS STRAIGHT UP CRUEL! What did you think of this episode?

SORA THE FAIRY APPEARS! Only a matter of time until Rein's kindness "backfires" but I truly appreciate how wholesome this man can be, even when facing down an enemy of unfathomable magic prowess... it was so cool to see him tackle the divide between Fairies & Humans with a true Beast Tamer mindset! I do quite enjoy Sora so far, can't wait to meet her sister! did you think of this episode?

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER! I can't say I was expecting to learn a limitation of Anya's telepathic abilities during an Eden College exam focused episode... turns out her power's connected to the moon's phase, an "eclipse" (which might refer to a "new moon" instead) actively negates/blocks it. Uncle's also come around to help her survive the midterms! What did you think of this episode?

GET TRICKED! So far, the mentor/student dynamic between Furfur & Jazz/Allocer might be my favorite... it's just so damn entertaining to see their situation & motivations, as well as what the students have managed to pick up from the experience! Beast Queen Keroli also looking so fine, holy shit.

SHIGARAKI'S TERRIFYING! I can't believe how incredibly overpowered this man's become, wielding All For One's stockpile of Quirks, enhanced with super strength, capable of extreme Decay, and undeterred by the presence of so many heroes... I fear he'll target Aizawa to disable his Erasure here soon, it's the only obstacle stopping him from killing everyone present. What did you think of this episode?

TSUBASA VS HIBIKI?! I'll admit, definitely wasn't expecting this development so soon... it was obvious there'd be issues between them, given the origins of Hibiki's powers as a Valkyrie, but I do suppose a brawl's a good way to vent your grievances, even if it's one-sided in terms of combat capabilities. Or maybe it'll turn into a "Hunt The Most Noise" competition to be more fair & square... What did you think of this episode?

STRAIGHT FIRE! ...I will not apologize for the pun! On a serious note, definitely an incredible episode, the new characters & their abilities got me hyped for what's to come, especially with Talulah's firepower & dragon-esque appearance! I do wonder if the Catastrophe will hit during their fight/escape, that's the only plausible way out of this situation I can think of. What did you think of this episode?

PRINCESS KURAMA! I'll admit, I didn't expect a whole "sleeping beauty" scenario mixed with a "tradition vs free will" undertone, but it was quite entertaining! I do wonder what other Alien Waifus we'll meet & how they'll add the main cast's dynamics... Hopefully Kurama & Kagura both show back up sooner rather than later! What did you think of this episode?

RANKO'S BIRTHDAY! Nagomi's bond with Ranko continues to strength slowly but surely, one life or death situation at a time! I can appreciate that everyone else was willing to eat bean sprouts to scrounge up enough cash to get a proper birthday cake for Ranko, it does make me happy to know their rude behavior was all an act as well... I'll continue to cherish our mature maid! What did you think of this episode?

GO TEACHER!! DUNGEON CLEAR! So proud of Fran & Teacher, overcoming the Greater Demon with an all-or-nothing bet was straight up incredible.

MOB VS DIMPLE ROUND 2! I wonder what emotion Shigeo's experiencing with that end scene, certainly wasn't expecting his shirt to be called out (though it did need to be said), so perhaps it's 100% embarrassment? It also makes me laugh that Dimple's Golden Transformation feels so DBZ... it's so entertaining! What did you think of this episode?

I AM ATOMIC! Seriously, what an incredible display of strength by Shadow... the way it was animated and executed was straight up impressive. I can't say I was expecting his solution to the nuclear bomb problem to be essentially "become the nuke itself" but it really does fit him well. So cool to see the Viscount stuff tie into this arc as well, a welcome twist for sure!

I /might/ be on the road to recovery, trying not to jinx anything, but with this development, I should be able to start making videos again soon.
Once I got the energy & health to do so, seasonals take priority so I can get caught back up, then I'll do my best to crank out some Symphogear for y'...
Hey, guys, just wanted give y'all a heads up that content will be delayed for a short while... mostly a couple days but I've come down with what's probably the flu and it's kicking my ass, I did manage to get all the Weds series recorded but I don't have the energy or mental state for Thurs onwards... which sucks because prior to getting sick, I was planning on getting another Symphogear out this week.
I apologize for the delays & I'll aim for a speedy recovery

POWER'S MOVING IN & SHE'S AN ANGEL! Our boy's about to achieve his (short term) dream of fondling a chest, so glad Power decided to keep her word & even sweetened the deal by allowing three squeezes. I do wonder if they'll get interrupted and it'll become a recurring gag for the show, that'd be hilarious! So cool to see that Devil Hunters make contracts with Devils, Aki's Fox Devil is crazy cool and I can't wait to see Makima's Devil! What did you think of this episode?

ELAN'S TRUE COLORS! Seriously, the amount of disrespect this man showed both Suletta & Guel was absurd... definitely seems like he'll be a problem going forward, based on what was revealed about his past, how he might relate to the Vanadis Institute, and that he's working with his own (fearsome) Gundam, the Pharact (with a solid design & skillset).

SHOW 'EM WHOSE BOSS! So damn satisfying to see karmic justice be delivered onto these assholes, it was time they were taught their place & knocked down a peg, especially when it came to Rein enacting his revenge after all the abuse & harassment he went thru!

ANYA'S SCHEMES FTW! Operation Griffon was a... (partial) success? I can relate with Henry's confusion, the fact Damian & Anya managed to win first place & earn a gold medal is absurd... and hilarious! I do love that Loid's a doting father, proudly reporting every step of his daughter's growth (with a straight face & serious tone). What did you think of this episode?

THE HARVEST FESTIVAL BEGINS! So ready to see what crazy bloodline abilities the newly introduced characters will have, as well as how the Misfit Class will show off the fruits of their hellish training! I do like the fact it gave me early Naruto Chunin Exam arc vibes, a good sign for sure.

DID THAT JUST HAPPEN?! No less than absolute chaos was unleashed, it was an incredible (and dreadful) sight to behold... easily one the craziest moments of the entire series, the scale of destruction and death is similar to the events of Kamino... It'll only worsen from here on out for the heroes, no doubt about it. What did you think of this episode?

SO MANY QUESTIONS, WHAT IS GOING ON?! I can't say I was anticipating majority of what went down in this premiere, the pacing nearly gave me whiplash as we jumped from one event into another... but it somehow actually worked out really well. Out of everything though, that end scene with Hibiki's transformation slaps the hardest and makes me want to binge! What did you think of this premiere?

So, I decided to check out this series after all, and turns out, the atmosphere and characters are definitely right up my alley! I don't have any notable experience with the mobile game so this is my first time with this universe. I do wonder what'll happen next, a catastrophe's inbound, so is it a storm or something else entirely? What did you think of this premiere?
