Because Nips prefer cute shit, and neither of those anime are cute.
Blake Harris
>no name source Eh... this is clearly stupid shit. Symphogear only sells to otaku anyways
Sebastian Torres
>*8,207 pt Symphogear How come Japan loves this show so much? Very curious.
Henry Rivera
The arc that gets adapted works kind of well as stand-alone, and lots of people don't like arc 2.
Ryan Lewis
JKnM is full of cute girls and yet it's flopping
Henry Cruz
>692 pt Hensuki What went wrong?
Parker Brown
Because magical girl anime, jpop, Nana Mizuki.
Kevin Taylor
Million Arthur also had Nana and that flopped hard. Granbelm is a magical girl anime too (kind of) and it's flopping.
Jonathan Ross
It's a bad adaptation.
Kayden Cook
How is it bad?
Noah Watson
>vinland saga sad
Cameron Ward
It should have had Yuri in the first place. Alot of cute girls doing loveable things with each other instead of being with guys what killed it.
Chase Collins
Having Anna gone was a huge mistake for Granbelm.
Dominic Taylor
Did you even watch the show? There is only one relevant male character in the series (Waseda), and there's one canon lesbian (Lily) and at least one other character who may be a lesbian too (Majime).
Asher Morgan
>*637 pt Dr. Flop HAHAHAHAHHAHAH >*310 pt Vinland Saga didnt expect that
Brayden Ortiz
What's the Kirara line again?
Logan Cruz
singing while fighting, no anime ever did this right? also all the song is good. Hibiki being hibiki, so manly that she created another harem in another universe.
Elijah Morris
I will give you the honest answer: it's because Symphogear is an idol show without the idol plot. The BDs for this series has always been just the icing in terms of profit even at 10k average per season since it profits way more through mech/CD/singles/concert any way. On why it didnt really break off with the idol otaku and has remained steady with a decent dedicated fanbase (which mostly are Nanafags) instead was because it didn't really pander to the idolfag enough.
Eli Jackson
>*3,044 pt Machikado Oh? Doing better than I thought. My favorite serie in this season. "Gambare! Shamiko!"
David Reed
I would really like to see Symphogears grand total sales from EVERYTHING after the last volume gets released.
It's super QUALITY, might as well buy the books since that's complete so you won't get cockblocked.
Evan Young
Please no. The fact that they stop it even though it's still guaranteed to sell shows that Amagetsu and Kaneko still love the series enough to give it a good send off. No point for more season of rehash drama.
Jack Foster
Vinland Saga is 10 years too late
Isaac Gray
>its like one of those low budget shows Gonzo loved to make in the 90s, like Speed Grapher Picked up
Most stuff is either expected or a disappointment. Happy for Shamiko though.
Jackson Smith
PRAISE SHEM-HA

>cute girls >balance between edge and justice >music >a studio team that seems to really care about what they're doing >a shit load of throwbacks to popular toku, mecha, old shonen and old western action movies >asspulls and pants-on-head ridiculousness without ever feeling dumb or retarded >NANA It's like a manly over the top super robot anime but converted into a magical girl anime.
>symphogear is retarded It is internally consistent and everything is explained. When did this board become so stupid?
Christopher Williams
>reading comprehension
Tyler Murphy
Fucking based! I wasn't there on day 1. In faact I'm a bit of a new fag to the franchise, hell I binged four seasons before XV aired. I thought s1 looked ugly, even though most fans claim it has the most soul. Hibiki, and her songs, were also a bit lack luster in s1, but she eventually grew on me and is my favorite geah. My favorite season's G but XV is a really close contender, it might be my favorite season depending on how it ends.
The live watches have been an absolute blast. And I'm amazed at every new meme you guys manage to concoct. I'm glad to be part of such an amazing community. Thanks symphobros.
Where is "reading live watch threads while also watching GX because I'm 2 seasons behind" on this list?
Isaac Perry
>When did this board become so stupid? The irony, read the post again.
Landon Peterson
Aren't Symphogear Live 2021 tickets randomly given to BDs? Is it only for pre-orders? Either way it incentives fans to "buy now think later," making this list pretty biased.
