Winter 2011/2012 Anime Review: Senhime Zesshou Symphogear

Have to admit…I was NOT expecting this to be this good.

Another day, another new anime to watch. Well, I actually watched this last night and didn’t particularly feel like writing about it until today.

Anyway, Senhime (or Senki, as I have seen it advertised in some places) Zesshou Symphogear is about 2 girls who fight evil beings called the “Noise” with the power of music.

Now, when I first saw this synopsis, I was like “What the crap? This sounds so stupid”. Somehow, I ended up watching it, thinking that I somehow let myself be fooled into watching something thats going to go the same way as Rio: Rainbow Gate (that god awful pile of trash that shouldn’t even be considered anime).

And I have to say it’s a little bit of awesome. I mean….they even display the name of their moves on the screen in epic fashion! And it’s not put there just to cover up the lameness of the move. The move itself actually DOES look awesome. The name card for it just that’s extra little bit of awesome.

And then there’s the transformation sequence. Again, a very awesome scene to watch. But then, I’m a sucker for magical girl-style transformation scenes (Sailor Moon, Nanoha…I love it all…)

I’d say its 3B Ratio is actually pretty balanced at the moment, which is nice. (I might actually make a page explaining the 3B ratio, because I think it’s a little awesome and deserves recognition)

If Only A Stadium Like This Existed...

So yeah, overall I’m liking this series. There isn’t really much of a story to it yet, but there’s more than enough time for all that, if they continue with the awesome fight scenes. :)

That’s all I’m saying about this one.

Off to go play some games. Cosmic Break, anyone?
