A great show that shouldn't be missed
by David -
The first season of Symphogear is an excellent package. Most often with anime BD releases you can't expect much extra. They do give the usual OP/ED along with trailers. On top of that though they give an in-universe concert sequence, live action concert event with the voice actresses taking part, and a live-action intro to the show.
The show itself is excellent. It has some very solid action sequences, concert scenes that some actual idol anime could learn from, and some interesting visual choices for those OP/ED sequences. The story is a solid start for the franchise. Some things are obvious, but there are also some legitimate surprises in this one.
Symphogear is unique. A mixture that works. You take one part magical girl, one part idol show, part superhero, action, and throw in a slightly futuristic setting. A show where people are fighting and singing at the same time.
I'd absolutely recommend it.
Good Sales = More NA Blu-ray Releases

Ok, here's the deal... The show is great, it's fun, over the top, and cheap by most blu-ray standards. We need this to sell well so Discotek will bring over the rest of the seasons to the states. Buy It!!!
A unique show that's worth your time

Symphogear is a show that's definitely a handful to summarize to someone. It's an amalgam of many facets of anime, from idols to magical girls to drama and so on that normally would have no business working in one show, yet somehow here it just clicks into one package of unfiltered hype. There is a reason why this franchise went on to span 5 seasons, a mobile game, and sold out concert venues. The first season is definitely a slow burner to start, but if you stick through (and turn your brain off) you'll hopefully see why this show is as popular in Japan as it is.
The Blu-Ray is also a great package as well; on top of all episodes of the anime, there are many bonus features such as interviews with the creators, promo materials, and so on.
Good Subs
by Harriet Tubman -
Quality distribution. The subtitles are very professional and easy to read even among all the flashing colors. There is also a generous amount of extra content a pleasant surprise. The price ain't half bad either.
High intensity action, fantastic plot and great music all tied into one.

Excellent show! Have been waiting for a blu-ray release for a couple of years now. Music is amazing and the story is top tier. Everyone should have this in their collection as it’s that meaningful. Can’t wait for the rest of the series to come to the US on blu-ray.
Great start to a great series

The first season's only problems are that it's animation is clearly more budget than later seasons, and some of the fanservice is poorly placed. Despite how rough around the edges things are, there's a distinct charm and feel of beginning to the first season of Symphogear, which makes sense. it's a much simpler time compared to later seasons, and I like that. The series is hype, Hibiki is my favorite character of all time, Tsubasa's theme from this season is iconic, the op and ed are both iconic, action is great, melodrama is enjoyable, lesbians, and this is one of the darker seasons of the series, making it a really good hook, but it has plenty of light for the viewers who aren't too into that that sort of thing(it also helps that the darkness mostly serves a purpose to create stakes)
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
