Senki Zesshou Symphogear G Review

Overall Rating 6.4 out of 10 - Good sequel that somewhat improves over the original.

I recommend watching.

I was rather critical of the original Symphogear as it began really promising and interesting, but then managed to fall flat with distasteful plot twists and monologues. I disliked how they treated Yukine in first season and a number of other things.

Second season managed to fix most of the issues I had with the original. Aside from few moments here and there is a very solid and entertaining experience.

Here we have three new gear users and somewhat expanded support cast. Shirabe and Kirika are likable enough to watch and Maria does not get too much screen time.

Plot manages to stay interesting without too much questionable behavior from most characters. Occasional WTFs do occur. They also justify some actions after the fact, but the way they do it does not sound completely illogical.

We also got Miku squid. They could have made her cuter and sweeter too, but alas.

Overall, it's solid experience. I recommend watching.
