They're here~!

The 2nd volume of the Symphogear manga is out and in my possession! As you can see I've got two copies, one of course is for debinding and scanning so I can share it with all you folks - but it will take time! If you're interested in owning your own copy please check out CDJapan!

Symphogear iPhone app

Oh man I can't believe I forgot to post this. Yeah so an iPhone / iPad application came out recently, there's a free version you can try or a full version you can buy. It's basically a character interaction app where you can touch the character on screen and they say lines from the show. The lines were re-recorded by the actors specifically for this app. Currently it's only Hibiki but Tsubasa and Chris will be added later (and supposedly a rhythm game of some kind).

Updaaaaate

Hi, I'm not dead. This blog is still alive. I have no news about season 2 because nothing has been announced yet! In the meantime, however, I come bearing translated fan comics to make you laugh. Also manga volume 2 gets released on February 9th, I've pre-ordered two copies so one will be used for scanning and translating. Expect more posts soon-ish?

Translation Corner #10

This entry talks about the tragedy that occurred at the concert in episode 1, it details a lot information that was never mentioned in the anime. This is a pretty depressing read, since it goes over the number of people in attendance and how many died.

Translation Corner #9

I was going to get back to these at some point, might as well start up again. This keyword deals with information about countermeasures against the Noise.

Symphogear Concert Goods available!

For those of you that didn't know, the Symphogear concert had exclusive goods available for purchase. Due to large lines (of over 700 people!) at the concert, they announced afterwards that all the items would be available for order on Good Smile's online shop. Much to my surprise, these goods have also been made available on the international shop as well so that overseas fans can buy them!

Season 2 confirmed

Way too tired for a real post right now but the Symphogear concert just ended in Japan and a second season was announced along with a nendoroid of Chris. More details later if I'm not dead tired.
