Symphogear General - /sgg/

Believe in the song of your heart.

Who here working themselves up to be preemptively upset over Season 4 so they can be pleasantly surprised when it's not awful?

TsubaMari yuri, starring Maria clinging desperately to the domme role. A bit on the shorter side, as well. Contains femdom and some very, very light bondage.

Chocolate, cooking and shoes aside...

GX is shaping up to be pretty decent as someone who's watched the majority of the series in the past week

Any teasers as to what S4/S5 might entail?

>>13981794
I would hope nobody is trying to hype anything. At least not until we get a PV.

Hype ruins everything.

Has anyone synched GX subs to BD rips yet?

>>13981798
Yeah there's a teaser at the end of GX

Go get watching and ignore our negativity

Stop that.

>>13981796
Thanks anon.

>>13981794
I did that as soon as it was officially confirmed/announced.

>>13981798
They just announced them recently.

GX drops a few plot hooks (about how relic tech is spreading, and then during the final episode there's another plot hook) but that's about it.

>>13981803
Not him, but it has some good parts.
Also he hasn't finished it yet, and everyone thought it was great up until certain parts.

>>13981803
To be fair the beginning actually was pretty good. Ressou Gungnir showing up again was really great.

>>13981798

Also YOU WILL NEVER LEARN ANYTHING ABOUT THE CUSTODIANS

>>13981829
They're saving it for the series finale/movie.

>>13981829

That covers most of the important stuff until we hit a direct conflict with them.

Am I the only one who wants villains who can give the gears a challenge and push them to the limit without making them job like GX did?

>>13981829
>tfw Ver will never become a cyborg in literal Mjolnir armor, take a shovel to the moon, and jam a shard of Senshou Jing into the giant relic to unite all languages once more

>>13981833
I legit doubt it'll ever come up. The closest the series has come to that cosmic realm is Fine's love for God and it's been pulling back from that with G (Nastassja reiterates Fine's dreams of freeing the Lulu Amel, and that's all) and GX (Carol's sole reference to the Ancient shit is explaining the origin of Alchemy and Songs and implying they're Fine's fault)

I hope Season 4 is going to tear the veil of the Custodians away but I feel it's just plain not happening

>>13981841
It's going to keep escalating like all these things do. Eventually Hibiki is going to punch a Custodian.

>>13981847

One day Hibiki is going to accost God and be all

It is. That's explicitly stated in both S1 and G.

>>13981851
Then he'll talk about how he just didn't like her back, and delusional post-topdad Bikkie will punch him and say he's a bad man that needs to be saved.

>>13981852
Didn't we see a giant relic under the surface of the moon?

>>13981855

Do you actually think that "the Custodians" are ripped from KR, and not literally all the other lore over the past century about godlike technobeings?

>>13981910
That is awesomely stupid.

>>13981899

And all of that (except the bit about creating humanity) corresponds to the Archons, or the Annunaki, or whatever mysterious name-label you want to slap onto the ancient ayys from /x/faggotry.

Symphogear isn't tapping into Agito. Symphogear and Agito are tapping into ancient alien shit.

No, they aren't. And from what little we know of the Custodians, neither are the Custodians and the Lords.

Ancient alien inspired shit always changes to match the medium that's adapting it, anon. Take this American example from 1999 - ancient ayys with extraordinary godlike abilities who gave humanity the gift of knowledge, but some factions among the ayys said "no that's fucking stupid humans are pieces of shit" and there was a war among them.

The biggest human evolution thing in Symphogear was Relic cancer, which is pretty far from the Seed of Agito powers manifesting "naturally" in random people.

Well, Ver was right. Carol's dream is stupid no matter how you spin it. Fine's dream still made some sense, and Hibiki was just being ignorant.

From what I gather the keywords are excessively vague when it comes to that. All it says is "humanity found a way to surpass them, in order to stop this they made the moon and the monsters to slow the Lulu Amelu's progress and keep an eye on them"

For all we know the Relics could've been the thing that caused humans to surpass them.

>>13981955
Not really ringing any bells over here

>>13981961
I think it was in a keyword or something, or maybe it was that they were just from another universe rather than going to another one.

>>13981960
>humanity found a way to surpass them, in order to stop this they made the moon

It was probably just Fine building her giant tower

"Shit they've mastered basic architecture we gotta stop them"

>>13981951
>Fine's dream
>kill everyone so I can fuck God
But she didn't want to kill everyone, just those who got in her way. She just wanted to destroy the moon then take advantage of the panic and rule the world.

>>13981962

You know I love this shit but all this Keyword stuff seems like a lot of important information to leave to the wayside

I kind of want to see them accidentally re-enact various mythologies with the custodians.

>Tsubasa kills Not!Orochi
>Hibiki gets rekt by Not!Fenrir

>>13981962
>>13981960
>A long time ago the Custodians remodeled the moon into a device that emits the "Curse of Balal," in order to steal away the unified language of humanity. But the moon was also put in place as a means to manage and observe humanity. In prehistoric terms the Lulu Amelu were the word used to describe "humanity," they existed face to face with the Custodians who were more or less are equivalent to the "creator" or "god."

>In the past the Lulu Amelu were equal to the Custodians, but they found a way to make themselves stronger which the Custodians saw as at threat and sign of disrespect. After the Custodians used the Curse of Balal to steal the unified language, the Lulu Amelu felt hostile to beings that they could not understand. So, the weapons known as "Noise" were developed as a way to kill only the hostile Lulu Amelu without bringing harm to the planet's environment.

This seems at odds with what the show tells us

But it's definitely in line with the standard ancient ayy stuff

>>13981973
It's pretty in line with the show, the only difference is whether the reason for the curse was Fine being a pest or humans in general getting too uppity.

>>13981976

The origin of the Noise, too. Fine tells us they're a post-Curse weapon (in line with the keywords) but she tells us they were created by humans in order to murder other humans, while the keywords imply that the Custodians created the Noise in order to genocide the Lulu Amel.

It's interesting to me because the keywords take a sort of "mythic" or "general" perspective while Fine's story tells us the "personal" perspective.

>>13981960
>humanity found a way to surpass them
Which keyword was this?

>they made the moon and the monsters
But the Noise were made by people.

>For all we know the Relics could've been the thing that caused humans to surpass them.
That would make it pretty different from Agito's deal.

>>13981980
No, that keyword also says that the Lulu Amel created the Noise to fight these hostile beings that they cannot understand (other humans because of the curse)

>>13981983
They made the moon, the keyword does say the humans made the Noise.

>>13981984

Oh, I was reading it as the Custodians creating the Noise because the Lulu Amel were hostile to them.

MY BAD.

>>13981943
Is there anymore to this doujin?

>>13981987
The sentence could be worded more clearly

>>13981973
>In the past the Lulu Amelu were equal to the Custodians, but they found a way to make themselves stronger which the Custodians saw as at threat and sign of disrespect

They ate from the tree of knowledge of good and evil

>>13981995
No, they built a tower.

>>13981999

It's a metaphor anon

The tower, shaped like a penis fucking the heavens, represents the loss of their innocence

>>13981969
>then take advantage of the panic
From resulting natural disasters, she mentioned.

She was gonna fuck a lot of shit up

>>13981984
How does that time frame even work out?

Babel was in Genesis, Solomon was all the way in Kings' and a part of recorded history when people actually could understand that others spoke different languages.

Is it just Kaneko saying "screw it" to using the mythology for anything other than set dressing?

>>13981995
>There's an anon here that doesn't know what the Tower of Babel is
>doesn't know that was the absolute inspiration for the language part of the curse

>>13982001
What? I mean I understand, but only people without innocence can come to that conclusion as the other people think it's just a tower.

>>13982004
>Babel was in Genesis, Solomon was all the way in Kings' and a part of recorded history when people actually could understand that others spoke different languages.

The Staff of Solomon was used to seal the Noise (presumably Kaneko is conflating Solomon's staff with the ring he used to seal demons).

Presumably prior to Solomon the Noise weren't trapped in the Treasury of Babylon.

>>13981933
what was the letter again?

>>13982007

Anon, if he knows about the tree of knowledge of good and evil, he obviously knows about the Tower of Babel.

>Now the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden? And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden: But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

That's the line in the bible which corresponds to "make themselves stronger than the Custodians".

Kaneko probably combined the Fall with the Tower of Babel, just for neatness.

>>13982004
Ullr's bow is a machine gun. Or on the other hand, there's no Odin and dudes in the old testament.

I wouldn't worry about it being too accurate to the stories.

>>13982011

>>13982015
>Kaneko probably combined the Tower of Babel with the fancy final dungeon tower from this one video game he made, just for neatness.

>>13982017

Sure, but the bible shit seems foundational to the Symphogear universe in a way the relic fragments the Gear girls use aren't.

Like, it doesn't matter that Odin hung from a tree to gain knowledge (which is probably why Hibiki spends most of the show suffering) from a worldbuilding perspective

>>13982024
Nor does it matter that Adam and Eve ate the serpent's offering from a worldbuilding perspective.

>>13982029
>offering

Does that mean dick

>>13982009
That's still a lot of time with unstoppable monsters running around doing everything in their power to kill every human they see.

How do you even survive that, much less craft thriving societies all across the world? The only thing in the entire franchise that can prevent the Noise from just running up and hugging every human, including the ones who made them, is Solomon's Cane. Not even Fine's ancient magic can do it without the cane. Or what, you could stop the Noise from moving by speaking Hebrew or something at them and nobody thought to do that?

>>13982017
The bow kinda makes sense since it could be an interpretation of "with one shot it can release ten arrows"

>>13981963
>"Shit they've mastered basic architecture we gotta stop them"
I thought about this earlier
If Humanity were a space-faring race, a simple tower wouldn't have mattered worth a fuck. I thought for a bit and it made more sense that the Tower of Babel was closer to a Scrin Ascension Tower than a giant staircase, some kind of fuckhuge portal device or transporter.

>>13982033
>That's still a lot of time with unstoppable monsters running around doing everything in their power to kill every human they see.

They're an anti-human weapon created by humans though, so presumably they weren't just GENOCIDE AND GENOCIDE 24/7

>>13982033
Noise breaking out of the Treasury without someone using the Cane of Solomon (which they hadn't used for who knows how long) is extremely rare. When Fine started using it they noted an alarming increase in Noise attack frequency.

>>13982004
Shit gets lost and fucked by time, anon.

The records of what originally happened lost bits and pieces over time, people filled them in with what they think are happened. Repeat that and you get stories that doesn't match up.

And also, the fact that constantly translating between different languages will fuck up the meaning of a sentence. The curse of language would end up fucking up every written or orally passed down shit.

>>13982041
Not talking about post-Solomon events, I'm explicitly wondering how the creators of the Noise weren't just dusted by their own creation the moment it was made, and how they can have an endless amount of Noise that didn't completely annihilate humanity before they were sealed off by Solomon.

The only explanation I could maybe think is that the Noise wouldn't target those whose blood is close enough to the original family who made them or something.

In which case enemies for next season could very well be inbred Noise Jews

>>13982017
Ullr's bow isn't a gun, chris just made it a gun. The gears conform to the preferred fighting style of the wearer on a most likely subconscious level, which is why hibiki put her armed gear power into her fists instead of a weapon, because she was unable to form a weapon because she didn't want to use a weapon.

>>13982020
He meant the tower of babel combined with the fruit of knowledge anon, not Kadingir, which is the one Fine built into a cannon.

>>13982024
>>13982029
Also Symphogear is a JRPG, Genjuro exists.
Also the gods were probably just super Genjuros that wielded the relics and not actual gods. pic related, Genjuro looks pretty much like Susano, probably the kazanari family is descended from them.

>>13982036
God wouldn't actually do that to us, probably aliens getting mad at us building an orbital elevator.

>>13982044

>>13982049
Some of the made up words actually seem to have meaning.

>>13982055
>that didn't completely annihilate humanity before they were sealed off by Solomon.
The Cane was used to control the Noise, and the Treasury was used to store them. Presumably all three were created alongside each other.

>>13982055

Maybe they just weren't berserk man-murderers until their original creator died off

I mean presumably ancient humanity would have had more relics to dust the Noise with

Gungnir got broken SOMEHOW after all (it was totally during Ragnarok wasn't it)

>>13982055
The only person left who understands the Noise's IFF system is Carol. Either way it's idiotic to think they couldn't control their own technology (because the noise are literally ancient overtech machines, not monsters) and they're in the Treasury of Babylon because it seems to work exactly as it should in lore (holds all the treasures of the world, etc).

>>13982064
No, the ToB probably came later. It's more likely they were just stored inactive in warehouses since there was only one Babylon and the Noise were likely widespread weapon systems.

>>13982068
Gungnir was broken by Seigfried

>>13982059
>God wouldn't actually do that to us, probably aliens getting mad at us
Remember in Wild Arms where for a quarter of the game you thought the enemy were demons until they revealed that they weren't spiritual beings but rather super-powerful aliens?

I suspect it's the same thing with deities in Symphogear.

Okay so a ton of S1's relics were weapons used to slay monsters, right (except Nehushtan, which was a staff used to cure poison shit)

So presumably Odin, Susanoo weren't Custodians (or gods), just great heroes who passed into myth

The Odin slaying a super Noise with Gungnir becomes part of the Ragnarok cycle, likewise for Susanoo killing Orochi and Kagutsuchi, or Roland killing a bunch of Mussulmen with Durandal

We are, the gods were just super strong humans, because there were different gods in different regions separated by language. these gods were likely the leaders of the original split human tribes.

>>13982204

Actually, couldn't the various mythologies happen together with the Tower of Babel incident?

After all, there are similarities between different mythologies, and there are outright counterparts of pretty much the same "god" in some mythologies(Roman and greek, for example). Some of the "gods" existed before the Tower was built, and some were from after the Tower was destroyed.

The ones that existed before the Tower would have been known to people of various places if they were famous enough, thus ending up with multiple mythologies of the same individuals under different names(thanks to languages), then with the degrading of shit over time, the original legends became distorted due to damage to the records, translations, etc, they all became parts of different mythologies simultaneously.

>>13982188
Nigga I can teach you about the tower of Babel.
The tower didn't fuck up language. It's a curse god placed upon humanity to punish them for trying to reach his heights.
Thus, the language was split only after it's building.
In Symphogear they call it "the curse of Balal", after the Hebrew verb used in the Old Testament: "Alohim balal sfatam" = God mixed their language.
When Fine is building her canon-tower she uses the Sumerian word for "babylon" = Ka.Dingir, Ka meaning gate and Dingir meaning god; Gate of God, Bab El.

For now, the myth of the tower is only known from the Old Testament and a Mesopotamian origin for it was still yet to be discovered, unlike other myths like the the flood and the creation of man.


And only to set things straight, the creating of men myths speak of the Lulu Amelu, which are simply humans.
Literally the words means savage persons, and gods created them after the Anunnaki didn't want to do the Mesopotamian ditch digging work so they asked the gods to create a substitute who will do all the work.

It is common knowledge that the Ziggurat are probably what inspired the story or vice verse, but what I mean is that a Sumerian\Akkadian epic describing the people building a tower to reach God and as punishment their languages get confused has not been found yet, unlike Atrahasis and the Flood in the Old Testament which are somewhat parallel.

Is it dream time again?

I dreamed watching GX Hibiki, Tsubasa, and Chris jump back in time to just before the Zwei Wing concert. The three got thrown into Div. 2's main room (the one we see in S1) through a greenish portal surrounded by 00 Quanta's GN Sword Bits (similar to Gundam 00's movie; I have no idea why).

As soon as they regain their footing, Hibiki and Chris rush towards Ryoko and hug her. Hibiki tells her "You don't have to do this", and Chris follows up with a stuttering "We know you, and we l-love you, all the same" while blushing.

Meanwhile Tsubasa smiles and lets out a relieved smile, then walks toward the wide-eyed Kanade and her younger self. She says "I'll explain everything later" while ruffling Kanade's hair.

I'm not Kanadeanon. But this random dream is one of the happiest I've ever had.

Do you think Miku ravages Hibiki while she's asleep every night?

>>13983745
No. She wakes her up at 2:17 for that.

>>13983748
>she only wakes her up after handcuffing her limbs open

>>13983723
There's some stuff like that hiding in Wild Arms too. Worth checking out if you haven't.

>>13983754
Well, pretending to resist can have its appeal.

Maybe one day I'll play them.

A pun worthy of our Ayahi-overlord.
When is your Ayahi arriving?

>>13983891
Aoi is a demon.

>>13983981
So is Otome road hell?
I can totally see Aoi wearing a devil costume trying to lead people down the rotten path as Ayahi dressed in white with huge angel wings tries to keep things straight.

>>13983981
And Nana is God.
