There's my 3x3. It was painful trying to decide whether to leave off Madoka or JoJo. Note that I count multiple seasons, spin-offs, and movies all as part of the same franchise. That means if Magia Record is good enough by the time it finishes, Madoka could still overtake JoJo for that last spot.

either the second ED (whose name escapes me right now) or After The Fire

Based on the response I got when I asked...

Is it just a fancy way of saying "my top 9 favorite anime" or is there some sort of pattern or rule to it?

Yep, that's pretty much it.

I saw this video posted on /m/ of the Symphogear VA's shilling the final season's BD releases. They're in character but breaking the fourth wall, and there's quite a bit of self-deprecating humor in these, especially from Nana/Tsubasa. It has some spoilers for that final season though, so watch it at your own risk if you're planning on or in the middle of watching the series but haven't finished it yet.

https://youtu.be/9LeI7JfAf7o

On that note, the final BD of the season was released in Japan today, which means all four of the Zesshoushinai OVA episodes and all of the season's songs are out as well. That means we officially have zero new Symphogear content left in the pipeline outside of future updates for the XDU mobile game unless some kind of new project is announced at the upcoming live event.

"It's not like this is an anime or anything"-chan and the other side girls that are in Hibiki and Miku's class are getting their own gears as part of an upcoming event in the JP version. Holy shit.

But the side stories in Symphogear XDU have been really good. It's just wholesome non-canon fun that doesn't affect the main series at all, and more importantly, it's more Symphogear content with the characters we know and love. Yes, these stories being tied to a gacha game does kind of suck. But it's not like they're locked behind a super difficult event that only whales can complete. In all of the gacha games I've played a decent amount (FEH, GFL, ReLIVE, MagiReco, and now XDU) I've never once felt pressured to spend money to be able to beat something story-related. Outside of the most difficult missions for big rewards (that usually don't have any story with them) and PvP stuff, I've been fine as a F2P or small spender.

So all in all, I'd rather a franchise get more content through a gacha game than just completely die.

I started to do a "serious" one but it felt a bit hollow, so I re-did it to games I've played/that had some meaning to me. I bet Smash Bros or Breath of the Wild will make it pretty far. Maybe Fortnite but I'm not sure if their userbase is the type to vote.

Side note... has anyone here watched Cross Ange? It has action, it has yuri undertones, and it has main characters voiced by Yukari Tamura and Nana Mizuki, so it sounds like it's essentially the closest thing there is to more Lyrical Nanoha. Is it actually a good show? And (since MAL said it aired with an R17+ rating) is it too gory for me to handle?

Yeah. There are some deaths, but only super early on, and I don't entirely remember if they were gory. Might give me an excuse to rewatch it...

All right. If you do re-watch it, get back to me on whether it's something I can handle. Or if the stuff I can't handle is in only like a couple of episodes, give me a heads up on where/when it happens.

I would definitely not recommend it to you, just within the first 2 eps there's some gruesome shit i don't think you could handle, and the ride never ends. The middle of the show is pretty "tame" then it goes downhill again in the later portion.

Oh yeah, semi spoilers i guess but the "yuri undertones" are completely thrown out of the window and fuck over that idea really fast because even though the anime is about this girl overcoming literal fucking hell and getting her revenge, they introduce a male character and suddenly she's a fucking damsel in distress, so don't go into the show with the wrong idea.

I got through the gory and messed up stuff and ended up loving most of it but god damn it pissed me off so fucking much by the end...

Cross Ange is a bit odd and Cookie pretty much nailed everything about the show. Eyebrow raising scenes at the start, cools off in the middle, ending is weird again.
Doesn't help that the dude in a Fukuda produced work is immediately comparable to Kira Yamato either.

Apparently this week's new episode of Magia Record (subbed) was the most "meguca" episode yet.

The English simuldub also finally reached the point where I switched away from the sub when the dub was announced, which also happened to be the "big hook" episode where shit completely hits the fan in the story.

cross ange is trash incarnate. the yuri "undertones" is basically just female jail lesbian exploitation that ends up just being bait except for like one character that actually was lesbian. and eventually, everyone falls for fukuda's self-insert Tusk's dick. hell, im pretty sure they got yukari tamura and nana mizuki to voice characters so that fukuda could say he NTR'd nanoha and fucked fate. dont watch cross ange unless you are specifically looking for something trashy.

the cross ange game is what the cross ange anime shouldve been.

I watched more Little Witch Academia today. An episode of Amanda being a total badass immediately followed by an episode of Constanze being an adorable dork was exactly what I needed today.

I also started on Levius today. First two episodes were pretty interesting.
