Symphogear GX Design Archive

The Symphogear GX Design Archive is the third book in the Symphogear "design" series, and like its predecessors it doesn't disappoint. It's filled with 250 pages of conceptual art, prop designs, background sketches, interviews and more. Previously the "design" books were only available for sale at the concerts but the GX Design Archive retails for 4,000 yen (about $32) and can be purchased online from amiami, CD Japan and Play Asia.

Symphogear GX Staff Book

Long time no see. Thought I'd give the old blog an update now that some new stuff has come in. I hope to return to regular updates...someday. H&D subs for OVA 2 coming soon, the script is out of the draft phase but I fear setting the signs may take time. My thanks to those who are sticking with us. In the meantime let's take a look at the new releases as we gear up for the concert at the end of the month.

Production of Symphogear part 1: Storyboards

Although I had hoped to update the blog more frequently after H&D finished subbing GX, various things have gotten in my way and I haven’t had time. This will likely continue for the next few months, but I’m still going to try to update when I can. Recently there have been some significant merchandise announcements that I’d like to cover in a more comprehensive post, but for now I’ll just mention that the GX design artbook and staff book were announced for a February release next year. To celebrate that I’m going to make a few posts to share some production materials I’ve gotten my hands on over the past months.

Summary of Zesshoushinai GX 1

Tonight I got my copy of BD vol 3, after watching it I decided to do a quick run down of what happens in Zesshoushinai. Of course H&D has plans to do subs, but it might take awhile depending on various factors. In the meantime I hope this will satisfy your appetite.

Symphogear GX design sheets

Whenever an anime series ends the secondary market is often flooded with production materials that are sold off by staff members looking for extra money. Recently some of the design sheets for GX when up for auction, reaching prices of $500 and $600 for 100-200 sheets.

Dec 2015 Interview with Kaneko and Agematsu

The most recent issue of Bushiroad's monthly magazine was released just a few days ago. It features an article and interview with the creators in celebration of the upcoming release of the Symphogear GX booster for the Weiss Schwarz card game. It also includes an exclusive promo card!

Symphogear and Yugioh

What exactly is it that these two series share? It might surprise you to know it's more than just the subtitle "GX."
