We come to it at last. The final Princession thread of our times (for now, hopefully)

It's been a good year.

I'm sure there's still a daijobujobu excuse to make threads somewhere in the future since there's probably more music to release, even if it'd be mostly the OST's BGM.

Awesome finale to an awesome series. I would love for this franchise to continue with another new series in the future, but if this really is just a one-off and there's no encore planned, then I'm just glad I was here to experience it. 9.5/10, one of the best magical girl anime I've ever watched.

Great characters, great music, excellent finale. I am really going to miss this one.
Band Snatch is the best villain group in the last 20 years and it is sad most anime fans will never know who they are.

I don't think they spent 6 years making PO just for 1 year airing. Producer Suwa said his works will be letting more people know about the existence of this anime. So they definitely will make something in the future.
>>
>>287316852
There's always the concert and the ongoing manga in corocoro is revealing big lore, like Hakua exploding the 5th BandSnatch.

In an ideal world, there would be a doujin in the works about the princesses gang-raping Nabisuke here
>>
>White Queen only manages to summon a mere Jammersnark
>Red Queen powers up Band Snatch for a little while
>Black Queen single-handedly amases two worlds worth of Musessence and OHKOs Carol
The real reason Nacchi never got powers is because she'd be too OP
>>
>>287317712
I'd love to see this be a recurring franchise that comes back every 3-4 years rather than every year like Precure does. I'm just not getting my hopes up too high.

Huh it was actually fairly even, I had the impression that Meteor had a lot more focus around the second cour for some reason
I remember being slightly sick of her songs at one point (as much as I like that dumbass)
>>
>>
In the distance, that day, when the star became music...
A great ending to a great show. The quantity and quality of music, its integration into the fights, the sheer love given to the side characters, the constant nerd references, and the gradual build-up of the plot from Queen to Queen to Carol all made clear this is the kind of series that is simply fun because the people making it are having fun. I really hope the staff will be able to carry this passion into another project in the future, be it sequel, prequel, or a new successor to the proud battle idol tradition.
However, I must seriously criticize that, all being said and done, the Alicepia Defense Force did not receive nearly enough headpats. Justice for our brave birbs!

Watch some early Heisei tokusatsu, they had a J-drama vibe while still being kodomo-muke, then watch some newer tokusatsu since they share the same DNA but are more kid friendly, and then that experience will wean you into kodomo anime.
Many late night anime creators specifically said they've tried to capture the magic of Kamen Rider Ryuki and yet their violent psychos all fall short compared to Asakura.

Continuing on with reading the anthology manga, there's been more heartwarming chapters.
-Like Riri opening up and healing ever since she's met the trio and people in her class noticing she can be cute.
-The girls having a party in the usual place, which reminds me that we never saw the sisters go back there? It felt very healing after all they had been through.
-Or Calist catching a cold after mothering the other guys too much and them worrying about him, but even when he's touched by their care he still nags them.
Kagari and her passion for B-grade movies still remains my favorite

I think it's disappointing she didn't do anything and Carol wasn't even a character. Maybe they could've cut down on all the flower knight filler in the middle of the series to develop those two instead. Carol as Global Warming is not interesting.
>>
So what exactly does "kira gira" mean?
>>
>>287323213
Carol not being a character is good because then the series can have literally only morally good people in it at the end.
>>
Retard aside, I do wonder whats everyone favourite songs. This series really had a fantastic soundtrack, even picking a top ten was pretty difficult.

Shinku no Ibara > Super Higher Dreamer (for my precious) > Legendary Revival > Perfect Showdown > Luminous Bloom > Monochrome Eden > Hakua no Youran > Triad force > Zettai Utahime Sengen > Gekkou it's ME

Kaneko said in PO what they wanted to describe is everyone has their own justice, that's why there's no evil villian as a final boss but a natural disaster.

That's a ridiculously hard question to answer. From my head today..
Skyward Bouquet >Legendary Revival >Future Never Ends >Only Yours >Luminous Bloom >Quintet Pulse >Perfect Showdown >Zensekai Utahime Sengen> Shimei wa Akaki Serenade > Jinsei wa Ryusei da
>>
>>287323213
I like it, makes the whole thing feel more epic. Not in the meme sense but rather the literary one. Alicespia's creation as it is revealed to us has the vibes of a proper creation myth and Carol a proper end of times. Both feel like divine, larger than life phenomena in a way it would not be possible if they were actual characters.

it's just combining two very similar onomotapeia for "shining", "kirakira" is well known and refers to general shininess while "giragira" has connotations like a bright summer day and implies a more consistent shininess

LEGENDARY REVIVAL

They put in a ton in the final eps so need some time to mull them over but I'm feeling Future Never Ends likely will be my favorite.
All of these would probably be in my upper portions of 'overall', even not filtering by singers.
>>
>>287323659
Favorite Nacchi song?
>>
>>287323490
You mean shutting, surely.
>>
>>287323656
Lulutto is very good for a first episode and I wonder how it'll develop from here, whether it actually has a twist or it's just comfy all the way.
GC is such an incredible mess but it might be funny bad at least, or it might get good later. The whore ghost still feels like they're asking you to give this all the porn Princession didn't get, lol.
>>
>>287323656
GC ep1 felt even rougher than Symphogear ep1 and that's saying something. Not technically, but in every other way.
>>
>>287323973
Symphogear ep1 is arguably not even bad in any major way imo. Despite spending a couple minutes and a lot of budget on a literal idol performance (a much better one than GC's at that) and juggling a flash forward and a flashback it still feels properly paced and manages a good introduction of every character it shows, while also setting up future midseason plot elements. When you reach the final scene you understand exactly both what's happening and why people are reacting to it the way they are.
GC has some utterly schizophrenic pacing. It feels like two episodes crammed into one, and you could easily cut 50% of the slice of life setup in the first portion to give the rest more time to breathe.

I really like how Alice and the hags and Thoma literally live on in musessence itself. It's a great allegory of people living on in your good memories and in the things they did while also completing the show's setting and themes. Princession is such a clear hymn to life and art and self expression when you analyse it. In that sense Alicepia and the real world becoming one is saying you no longer need a special place where you're allowed to be yourself if we can make the whole world like that.
>>
>>287324258
Nagase sure doesn't look the same color as that YELLOW background
>>
>>287324332
Yeah, fair. Hopefully if Lulu stays chill the threads will calm down too (though I hope it gets weird instead). I think threads are always rougher when something is starting probably.
>>
You know, I forgot Alicepia has time dilation. Nabiscuit is probably a couple hundreds of years old if not more from his perspective. I think the Snatches might be pushing over 100 too. This makes the hags extra haggy.
>>
>>287324426
I recall the designer saying she made Shinku and Hakua in the image of Taisho era girls, if that's the case they'd be 100 years old or over in our world and easily 3+ times that in pia.
>>
>>287323331
For me it's
>Super Higher Dreamer (both versions)
Nacchi creating the song in-universe and then it becoming the Princesses' super form power up song was so fucking kino. The opening of the battle version always gets me hyped just listening to it.
>Only Yours
Love the lyrics and both of the fights where it was sung. Whereas Over the Blaze is mainly about protecting Alicepia as a whole, Only Yours feels more intimate and personal. Kind of wish we got more Hasegawa screentime
>Legendary Revival and Luminous Bloom
Very hype songs, they nailed the Symphogear-style "11th hour comeback moment at the end of the episode" both times. The bit dedicated to the girls at the end of Legendary Revival is great.
>Kimi to Tsunagu Orchestra
Something about the first ED is just very comfy to me, it already feels nostalgic after only a year. I like how it has this uplifting "it'll be daijobu-jobu" feel to it with the lyrics and anything.
>Honourable mentions
Zettai/Zensekai Utahime Sengen, Perfect Showdown, Triad Force, Quintet Pulse, Monochrome Eden, Kira-Gira Infinite, Innocent Call, all of Kagari's songs, fuck it all the songs. It's actually insane how we got so much great music, at a rate of over 1 song per episode, and a lot of them were sung while fighting, by newbie VAs too. We may never get a show like this ever again so I'm truly grateful for this past year.
>>
>>287324639
>Kimi to Tsunagu Orchestra
I've always liked the line about facing the sun in that one. Like you said, it's uplifting.
>>
>>287324639
Hasegawa had such a cool concept for this sort of series. And then to only ever featured in one episode.
>>
>>287324970
Hey, she was in that episode where they kind of made her sorta jealous over Kagari getting along with Sumire... Or was that her focus episode? In my mind that's two episodes

>>
>>287324378
There wasn't a whole lot of concrete stuff to theorize about based on the first episode. I'm honestly surprised it made it to bump limit, especially for a series that took a day or two to get any subs. Part of it was arguing about different anime though, which will hopefully die down once there's more episodes to think about.

Interested in how the musical aspect will play into it. Creamy Mami was kind of a let down in that regard as it only had a couple of songs throughout its run and for a series with a pretty big idol focus its performance animation was lacking I felt. Hopefully we get a decent amount of well choreographed performances, plus the opening leads me to believe we'll have dimension hopping shenanigans like Flip Flappers (and Creamy Mami even).

I loved the ending. I’m a sucker for this kinda shit like Princess, Symphogear, Yuuki Yuuna — basically the true heirs of Saint Seiya (what it could’ve been without that washed-up drunk messing it up).

I mean, it was obvious they were going to do it, but I can't stop loving that shit every time it happens.
I wasn't that much into this series overall but I still had fun during the big moments. Band Snatch were cool. White Queen was cute. The NPC were fun, especially the Kana Asumi girl whose name I can't remember.

Did anyone from the staff ever say why they changed Sumire’s uniform in the second part and gave her a male one? Even in the chibi scene at the end she still had her girl uniform.

It's probably something simple like "She just prefers the girls' winter uniform and the boys' summer uniform"

For these element garden animes do the VAs get singing lessons?
>>
>>287362636
Pretty sure all professional seiyuu go through extensive vocal training and are expected to know how to sing on top of being able to voice act.

>>287362636
I think in Japan most seiyuu have extensive training in a variety of fields but still many are heavily dependent on the voice director.
In Symphogeah a few of the VAs had no real music career before it (or like Kayanon don't really have an interest in being a singer outside of it being a useful skill for a VA to have) and in their performances through the anime you get that sort of "trial by fire" feel as they have to keep up with Nana and Ayahi and Nanjo.

All actors are heavily dependent on their directors. It doesn't matter how talented, skilled or experienced someone is, it is impossible to judge your own performance on the spot.

What? Bandsnatch and Red Queen arc were the peak of the series. After that it absolutely floundered with the Flower Knight arc. It didn't recover until Bandsnatch came back but by then there were like 5 episodes left. It's really a shame. Yes, I watched all of it. No, that doesn't mean I can't criticize it. It means I'm more informed with my criticism. The show is cute but it had an awful middle phase it never fully recovered from.

Then I strongly advise you to watch CPK - great production values, great story centered around amateur music-adjacent content production in futuristic vrchat, with an interesting twist on a classic fairytale, great music (though some old vocaloid fans hated certain remixes)

I see, thanks for the insight. I would have thought they would go through a quick regiment specifically administered by elements garden to see if they were a good fit for the songs. Idk what the process of VA selection looks like especially with an anime so heavily focused on singing

The reason it piqued my curiosity occurred when I was listening to the songs again Navisuke's "King of Solitary" sounded a bit off from the rest vocal tier wise. Don't get me wrong I really like the song especially the chorus, the issue is that during some parts of the song it feels like he's just reading the lyrics with just a slight hum to his voice

It is a highly competitive industry. If interviews and mangaka anecdotes are to be believed, they have hundreds of seiyuu read lines and the directors pic the ones that fit the best. They don't get any special training by the company, they are expected to keep up.

I tend to only follow a few new shows per season because I grind through backlog more and I have been steadily ramping up on being into tokusatsu for various reasons.
I've got a Sentai series on backlog and I'm jumping around and trying to juggle Ultraman and Metal Heroes and various one and dones...
I'm not currently watching it now but Janperson was amazing. Also it is certainly more on-topic given how much Kaneko likes Ultraman, I recently watched the original 1966 series and it really holds up well.

Four of them are shorts so let's ignore them
46 shows * 23 minutes = 1058

17.63 / 7 = 2.5 hours a day
Not that bad really

So far I have watched
- Go For It, Nakamura-kun!!
Might drop cause the gimmick got old fast and censorship. Apparently it's slowburn and never goes anywhere too.
- Ghost Concert
Might drop depends on how it's executed. Episode 1 was a mess as is.
- Needy Girl Overdose
Might drop, not really my thing. And I don't like the artstyle.
- LuluttoLilly
Nostalgia bomb from Studio Pierrot.
- Nippon Sangoku
PEAK
- Witch Hat Atelier
Might put on hold off due to fully animated content cut.
Planning to watch Agents of Four Seasons next.
This is my first time keeping up with an anime season instead of watching whatever on my long ass list.

Still catching up on Princession and Nacchi really is a good kid for them all. Also you cannot make me believe Sumire is 14 while Kirika and Shirabe of Symphogear are 15. No way is that real.
>>287386591
Does it count that if I know the source material is manga I read that instead? I caught up with Marriagetoxin's manga and it's pretty entertaining. Way better than the dreck Sakamoto Days ended up as. Otherwose just been catching up on older shows like Gundam and like another anon said, Tokusatsu. It's related cause I'm slowly finishing the original Ultraman, which gave us Kaneko. Anons, most JP things we watch can trace inspirations from it.

Looking back at the final few episodes, the role of the queens in the whole thing is kind of interesting. Clearly they could act independently of Naviyu to the point of just leaving him and materializing on their own if they wanted, but what they chose to do was give him the power to carry out his plan, while also giving the Princesses any support they needed in trying to stop him. It's like after their own attempts failed they just decided to back everyone at once in hopes that one of them would come up with a working solution.

I don't think so, we are told by Band Snatch that Red is betting on the Princesses and we see White is still backing the sisters. Nabisuke was at no point the plan A, he was never in control of their powers and both Queens know for a fact Alicepia alone doesn't have the power to stop Carol. His evil scheme was doomed to fail from the start, even if the tower had worked.
White knows holding hands is the only thing that can change the future and Red knows the girls have endless potential for growth. They both know self sacrifice is not enough to save the world better than anyone. It is clear to me he was a disposable pawn to get the girls ready for Carol.

I feel like this would be way less of an issue if they just had Symphogear on a little bit of life support (I don't count DJ events and merchandise spam)

Were these ever for sale? There are a couple floating around the second hand market.

>>287413865
They are pretty consistently better at handling Jammersnarks but worse overall. As the Flower Knights, they got solo'd by Calisto for an entire cour then jobbed to the princesses hard. As princesses, they needed the rat to power up and barely fought any Jammerwocks.
I don't think they were ever supposed to be particularly strong. They are more like the DMjii of this show, really useful in boss fights but otherwise the weakest.

Precure is an institution, so it does a lot of the basic weekly magical girl stuff right. Past seasons were amazing and they've fallen to the side a little, or maybe it's just that I'm old, it's probably that I'm old.
That's why Princession appealed to me, some of the things it was doing, light the fights felt like they broke those iron clad traditions that have to be followed no matter what. Princession did a lot Precure couldn't, or won't do.

Ghost Concert is proof that Agematsu needed Kaneko to take his ideas and turn them into a coherent story. Princession had a coherent story beginning to end. After the first episode, all the important details, Alicepia, Musessence, the Jammerwocks and the Princesses was all clearly laid out. Meanwhile we're two episodes into Ghost Concert and I have no fucking clue what's going on, whether the story's about AI or Ghosts, what the main threat or challenge even is.

When they worked together, we got Symphogear. Separate, it's clear which of the two is a better storyteller as opposed to an idea guy with no idea how to stich those ideas together into a narrative.

Now for the horror scenario for all you anons watching both: what if Princession was written by Agematsu?

Agematsu would have tried to push back on the porn ban

I don't even want to think such thing. Agematsu should just write lyrics not story.

So far it is just the plot of Doom but instead of hell, the glowies stumbled into the nasuverse.

>what if Princession was written by Agematsu?

I still think PO has a chance to get season 2 after reading Kaneko‘s joke.

"If Kaneko and Aisora could each double their powers using song fragments of Ena and rona's,
we might be able to broadcast a continuous series like TV Asahi's Sunday morning anime...
Unfortunately, since it's just the two of us, we can't mass-produce it."

Honestly the current season is doing a lot of things well and ironically it's because it's doing them like Princession did, between actually making side characters reoccurring and a 'villain' merely testing the main cast and the yuri incest double henshin.

Girls can be husbands too.

In hindsight it's not that surprising that GC comes across as discount Fate to people. Symphogear itself is very clearly influenced by Nasushit in some parts.
>>
>>287466780
A good amount of Kaneko's batshit lore is less dumb than Nasu's, somehow.
>>
>>287467290
Yeah but Nasu (who is a known hack) is good at making his garbage cool enough for you to play along, and he's definitely better at writing a coherent narrative or characters. GC so far seems insanely amateurish in a lot of aspects, from premise to pacing, and all the good thematic elements just remind me that Symphogear already did it better. At least it's yuri so I'll keep watching but man it just oscillates so wildly between interesting stuff and just atrocious realisation.

>When they worked together, we got Symphogear. Separate, it's clear which of the two is a better storyteller as opposed to an idea guy with no idea how to stich those ideas together into a narrative.
Agematsu doesn't even deny this btw, there's like 4 different interviews where he just says "I personally think Kaneko writes the most interesting stories in the world"

the original Symphogear draft Agematsu had before asking Kaneko for help was about fighting 4 elemental themed bosses and then the their boss (yes, really).
GX was a callback to that idea.

At the same time, Kaneko has massive self-worth issues and has talked about how he has written entire projects, entire games with no credit at all after coming on to "help". He refuses to reveal what they were too, he literally doesn't want the credit.
Even for Symphogear XDU he had this autism for absolutely no reason, wrote a whole double-part event but had the game advertise it as him doing the "draft" only to be forced to admit he wrote 100% of the entire thing 1 day after release because players noticed it was full of his usual insane jokes and obscure references. Supervised the Gamera collab but only says so after the entire game has already shut down.

The two of them need each other so much its not even funny

When did the Magical Girl genre stop being for teenage girls and started being only for toddlers or old men?

>>287471245
The toddlers were first, teenage girls and old men joined later

What a failure of a franchise. Precure did everything it could to alienate women with Idol Precure and Princessions Orchestra still couldn't get an audience that weren't pedos

Finished episode 46 (45 was beyond peak), love their songs to Navue. But goddamn it, Kaneko and Aisora just had to make it Wild Arms 2 again. Though, Aisora did it already with Knight Blazer in Nyaruko's Henshin.

They really love the second one a lot among all the Wild Arms over there. Also Elfnein joke in the post episode preview.

That’s the spirit. Idols graduate, gacha dies, threads 404 - but Princession is eternal in our hearts and hard drives.

We’ll just loop the lives, rewatch episode 12, and pretend it’s still Sunday. It never ends, it only begins… again.
