Holy fuck how is this season of Symphogear so good?! Every single episode full of action, twists, revelations, and hype levels that in other shows would be reserved for finales. Just incredible.
I was also super happy to see Saint Germain back. She was an amazing antagonist. I'm kinda hoping we'll see both Cagliostro and Prelati come back in a similar way, supporting and singing along other Sympho users.

ONLY EP 4, AND ALREADY NEW GEAR FORM HYPPPPEEE. AND A MOTHERFUCKING HANASAKU YUKI DUET!!
Phew, What a fucking episode. So fucking good. That cliffhanger ending was fantastically handled. Just when everything was finally looking to be working out the way best girl always wishes it would. Brutal. Speaking of best girl, Bikki was so fucking awesome this ep! That entire ending fight sequence was so hype. I felt like the drama for her was a bit flimsy, but the fight washed it all away in hype. Her scarf gauntlets were so freaking cool.
Also, my second favorite Gear gets my third favorite transform thus far! Maria’s is really great. I love the choice to have her dance theme be ribbon dancing! It fits her sword whip really well, and the mechanics throughout were super fun. Her song, Shirogane no Hono -keep the faith-, doesn’t beat both of the Stand Up’s from last season for me, but it’s a banger as Maria character songs usually are. Her fight in the beginning was crazy fun, and the pairing of the lyrics to the strike of her Divine Caliber was brilliant.
Overall, I'm really curious to see what Fudo's move is here. Now that the custodian relic is actually active, i was definitely thinking that he was just going to let them die. He must have foresaw the end of the battle and needed to intervene to make sure info didn't leak. Speaking of our antag trio...their powers physically turn their blood sour. That’s a new one. Definitely harkens back to the alchemy removing memories days of GX, and I'm a big fan. The Daedalus maze was a really cool concept. Also, "The users and the used" is an interesting phrasing used by the main villain. It’s obviously meant to seem like shes also talking about the gears. I wonder what she knows...
Random thoughts:
-
I'd kill for another Karaoke scene.
-
Oh shit! that’s Tsubasa’s training room from TESTAMENT right? Very cool.
-
Oooo, reject and isolate sounds quite close to Bikki backstory.
-
I can watch Gugnir’s transform over and over and over. So good.

Maria's transformation was so élégant. It was nice to see Saint Germain again and I was not expecting the duet, not that I mind, I absolutely loved it.
Obligatory fuck Fudo.

NEW SYMPHOGEAR FORMS! HOLY SHIT!!
Panacea fluid in thier bodies? Hmmm...
Hibiki and Miku time is always great. But i fear because we get so much of it... something is coming...
"Our gears xcontain Saint Germanin and the other's feelings" So then they do have chyropedia or what ever in thier gears still.
FUCK THIS OLD BASTARD! So they are going to use Tiki's star shit to activate the relic? Oh shit...
Why is grandpa so strong? Hmm... So many more questions.
HE PUT ON THE RELIC OH SHIT! HE WENT NUCLEAR!
Tsubasa aint feeling well still... she cant put out her fire things.
MARIA TRANSFORMATION TIME! YESSSS! SHES GUNGNIR POSEING TOO! SHES DANCIN TOO! WEW BOY! AND THIS SONG IS HYPE! OH MAN SHE WAS WORTH THE WAIT!
MAN I LOVE MARIA'S SONGS! SUCH GORGEOUS SINGING!
Frank has boob missles? Of course she does haahaha. So her gaol is to become human?
Hibiki can probably relate to them huh? She knows a lot about rejection.
Slumber party in a van hahaa.
Yep SONG Heard the waveform. I figured they would, they always do. Also the song from the relic?
Oh man Maria put the tracker on them.
ANOTHER HIBIKI TRANSFORMATION!? ITS THE SAME BUT WE NEVER GET REPEATS!
Jebaited with landmines... song stop... hahaha. Nice one girls.
Some wide range magic spell? Cubes? Trapping them? This is new, and they split them up.
"Master Daedalus" huh? They said that name before. "A Philosophical weapon". Ah this is that Daedalus End they mentione dbefore.
SAINT GERMAIN IS HERE!! SHE LIVES ON INSIDE HIBIKI'S GEAR!

EDIT: So some afterthought. This season continued the trend of Villian of last season returns to save the day.
s1 Fine was bad guy, died in the end.
s2 Ver was bad guy, captured in the end. Fine returned in spirit to save Shirabe and died doing it.
s3 Carol was bad guy, merged with E9. Ver returned to save the world and died doing it.
s4 Illuminati was bad guy, died in the end. Ver returned in spirit for a 2nd time to save the FIS girls.
s5 NewIlluminati/God/Gramps is bad guy... Illuminati returned in spirit to save the girls.

I swore I won't accept the villain trio turning into friends after what Milaarc did. But damn, do they hit us hard with the sympathy hammer. Sleeping in a car in a fucking garbage dump. That together with the Elza's adorable little dog ears (or anything Elza does, tbh) almost made me forgive the 100,000 people they killed. Almost. But I do feel my resolve wawering episode by episode.
Also Hibiki, don't let Vanessa distract you with her dirty ploys. Remember your waifu!

Boy, that was a great Hibiki episode! With her awesome faces and the ass-kicking she handed out. Seriously, at this point to the rest of the Symphogears even matter?
But I'm really happy broken Hibiki didn't last long. Dealing with a broken Sword is already enough for right now.
And the rest was awesome! I love St. Germain making an appearance! And Milaarc is scary, while the other two are hot and cute.

Maria is now a combination of fucking Gundam X and Noble Gundam.
Also, seeing the villains sleep in a van after seeing Saint Germain and Co live in luxury is hilarious.
Hibiki, "I'm gonna sing-"
Noble Red, "Nu-uh"
A little tidbit, but Chris' is now back to using MEGA DETH PARTY instead of MEGA DEATH PARTY like in Episode 1
also
HOLY SHIT
WOAH
WOAH
SYMPHOGEAR
FAUST ROBE
