RIP Hibiki, turned into a final boss by being too nice.

That seemed...a bit abrupt, tbh. Curious to see where they're going with this. It need scarcely be said that Miku had better get plenty of screentime trying to fix this.

So are we getting aliens as the bads after this is done?

Noted immaculate soul: If this marks the return of berserker Hibiki I'm going to everywhere. Though I admit for a moment I was looking forward to seeing a severed arm become god.

...Does ANYONE even remember what Symphogear's version of Original Sin is supposed to be? Or the Curse of Balal for that matter?

Curse of Balal was god saying lol gently caress off you can no longer communicate with each other to humanity for Fine trying to get the tower of Babel built, I think. God in this case probably being aliens.

What if God isn't aliens and is instead like the whack scientist dude in Gundam 00 preparing humanity to band together to greet aliens

Also can we talk about how loving great it is that Hibiki, all-around sweetheart and the closest thing the show has to a messiah figure, is the one to have inherited the power of The Christ-Slaying Spear?

I just want to know how Gungnir got from Scandinavia to the hands of a random Roman soldier.

The whole thing about conceptual weapons is that Words and belief have power so it's probably more belief in it and the Spear of Destiny got intertwined and so now Gungir is the Longiuns Lance.

I think one thing we can all agree on is that the moon is turbofucked.

I'm placing the odds as follows (subject to change based on feedback): -Hibiki retains godhood: 10-1 -MIKU INTERRUPT: 2-1 -Kanade coming back from the dead to bitchslap some sense into Hibiki: 1-1 -Goodbye, moon: 2-1 -Aliens: 3-1

So...it occurs to me that this episode confirmed that Jesus exists or existed in Symphogear lore, in some fashion or another. ...Are we going to meet Jesus? Can we get Him to officiate Hibiki and Miku's wedding?

I support Hibiki for goddess because analysts say her girlfriend is 50% less likely to destroy reality than Madoka's.

I sort of miss when it seemed like Nanoha could feasibly take Hibiki in a fight.

So, here's my predictions. The Gears (-Kirika) will show up and ineffectually battle Hibiki. She will need to be taken out by Gungnir, which they don't have (since hibiki has it). Maria will psych herself up to take it back, but fail. Such is Maria's lot in life. Miku and Kirika will show up and appeal to the 'real' Hibiki, and somehow get Gungnir from her. Miku & the gears will use the spear to activate X-Drive and fight Hibiki. (I don't know who uses the spear - probably Miku, but maybe St. Germaine?) With X-Drive & Gungnir hey will "destroy" Hibiki, but it's a fake-out; Miku believes that Hibiki's fist only destroys evil, and Hibiki ain't evil Chris will be alone, forever. Ed: I hope the last episode has a Tsubasa concert as part of the epilogue. Eela6 fucked around with this message at 02:29 on Sep 19, 2017 |

Germaine is going to sacrifice herself somehow. We've already got an alchemist, don't need another.

I hope she survives, but she probably won't. Her armor being made of guns is cool.

Well, if Hibiki somehow becomes lucid while in god mode, will she bring the other two alchemists back?

I hope the alternate reality power comes back yet again, anything goes now and related side-story source XDU is all about them alternate branches it's probably also where the team can source an extra copy of Kanade or a Miku who's already a Gear

Gahhhh I'm already dying to know how this turns out, this wait is going to kill me. gently caress, I hope this Power of God amounts to more than just Hibiki turning into a big scary monster and getting punched back to normal

I mean, I don't want Hibiki to die or anything, that'd be a bizarre swerve. I'm just hoping that this isn't just a matter of "Oh Bikky's the final boss now." Like she actually gets to use the Power Of God against a new enemy or that this is a character beat before an action sequence or something like that.

Like she actually gets to use the Power Of God against a new enemy or that this is a character beat before an action sequence or something like that. Here's my somewhat serious predictions, in order of likelyhood: 1. Hibiki gets taken back down to normal. No divine power lingers at all. 2. Hibiki gets taken back down to "normal", but she's not back to 100% normal. Some divine power lingers, but she can't tap into it at will. 3. Hibiki dies. 4. Hibiki remains a god, able to tap into at will. Honestly, 1 and 2 do feel a bit even, knowing this series. E12 can't get here fast enough.
