Catching up on official site updates

I had a busy weekend so now I'm going back to look at all the updates on the official site. This includes a preview of episode 1 and new quotes on all the character pages. They also put up keywords, but they are rehashes of ones that were in s1 and G.

Magazine interviews and more shed some light on GX (spoilers)



From now on I will be marking posts like these with a spoiler tag to alert readers that specific details will be revealed in the post. Although the interviews don’t exactly spoil specific plot details that effect the entire series, they do spoil some of the “events” that will occur in episode 1. If you’d prefer to be surprised, I recommend you stop reading. 

What’s in a name? GX’s new characters and their influences


From the beginning, the names of the characters in Symphogear were carefully chosen by the creators, usually to highlight their role in the story, or other times to reflect deeper meanings and hints at their backstories. In GX, this is no exception. Carol and Elfnein received their names from co-creator and music producer, Agematsu, while the four dolls were likely named by Kaneko. In this post we’ll try to explore what their names might mean.

GX observations and theories

It's still too early to know for sure what GX has in store for us, but I think we can take a lot of the comments that have been given to us and begin to draw some conclusions. I'm going to throw around some of my ideas here.

New site updates and more

I finally secured a copy of Megami Magazine for myself, I was hoping to get it much earlier but because it came out on the weekend no stores in my area decided to update their stock. Hopefully I'm more lucky when Newtype and Animedia roll out in another week or so. Today there was also an update to the official site with more designs and Nana also announced the OP song title.
