The summer 2019 series Symphogear XV received a simulcast through Crunchyroll and now we’re finally getting a home video release. With Discotek Media slowly but surely working through these properties, this season is getting the attention now as the final season. While no date is set for it yet, they confirmed that it is coming – in its original Japanese language with English subtitles – and will include the omake episodes, clean theme songs, the premiere event, and more extras when it arrives. That will all be detailed with the solicitation in the near future.
The fourth series was directed by Katsumo Ono, features character designs from Satoru Fujimoto and is animated by Satelight.
The Japanese cast includes Ai Kayano as Kirika Akatsuki, Aoi Yūki as Hibiki Tachibana, Ayahi Takagaki as Chris Yukine, Nana Mizuki as Tsubasa Kazanari, Yōko Hikasa as Maria Cadenzavna Eve and Yoshino Nanjō as Shirabe Tsukuyomi.
The franchise began back in 2012 with two more seasons coming in 2013 and 2015 respectively. Funimation originally streamed the first season of the series but passed on the others as they did not pursue a home video license. All three seasons also streamed on Crunchyroll.
Original concept: In a world where aliens known as “The Noise” threaten the earth, only one thing can protect the human race: the magical armor Symphogear. But in order to save their world, the Symphogear wearers will have to learn from the tragedies of the past.
