The fifth season of the hugely popular anime "Senki Zesshō Symphogear" has finally been confirmed! The Symphogear series has been airing since 2012, and in addition to featuring a star-studded cast, it is also a unique series that focuses on the theme of "song." It has also attracted attention for its heated battle scenes. So, this time we'll be introducing a ranking of the strength of the characters that appear in Symphogear!
10th Place: Serena Cadenzavna Eve

Maria's younger sister, 13 years old. Her compatibility coefficient with Symphogear is high, making her a Symphogear compatible. Despite her talent, she has an aversion to fighting and a calm, gentle personality. She first appeared in "Senki Symphogear G." She played a key role in providing rear support. He sang the ultimate song to resolve the Nephilim accident and was the catalyst for awakening his sister Maria.
Gear: Agartram
His main color is silver, evoking a fairy-like appearance. While he possesses the unique ability to manipulate energy vectors, perhaps influenced by his own aversion to fighting, he specializes in defense and lacks offensive capabilities. This puts him at 10th place in the strength rankings. It's unfortunate that he dies in the story after singing the ultimate song, and doesn't see much action afterward. The character himself seems to be quite popular.
9th Place: Miku Kohinata

Hibiki's childhood friend. She shared a room with Hibiki in the dorms, helping her get changed and worrying when she comes home late. She's become like a wife to Hibiki. Originally an ordinary person, she was forced to wear Symphogear due to a scheme by Dr. Well. Although she no longer uses the gears, she continues to receive rave reviews as a support character.
Gear: Divine Beast Mirror
Compared to other Symphogears, she is made from a relic several levels below average, making her the weakest Symphogear. However, thanks to her flight abilities and the ability to disassemble relics, which could be considered Symphogear-killing, she has a track record of cornering superior opponents such as Chris. Despite being the weakest, she possesses the potential to be the most deadly.
8th Place: Akatsuki Kirika

Like Maria and the others, she was on Dr. Well's side in "Senki Zesshō Symphogear G," opposing Hibiki and the others, but eventually reconciled and became friends. She has a playful personality and often ends her sentences with "death." She seems to be especially close friends with Shirabe. She's also good friends with Hibiki, who shares her love-like friendship.
Gear: Igamari
She's a close-range, well-balanced character, slashing with her scythe-like weapon, splitting its blades, and throwing them like a boomerang. She's also a versatile mid-range character, combining her blades to form an axe or scissors. Her combination attacks with Shirabe are particularly deadly. Ranking-wise, she and Shirabe are like one, and her solo abilities are inferior to those of Maria and others, which is why she's ranked this low.
8th Place: Tsukuyomi Shirabe

Like Uta, she was on Dr. Well's side in "Senki Zesshō Symphogear G," opposing Hibiki and the others, but they eventually reconciled and became friends. While generally laid-back and low-key, she occasionally displays bold, witty behavior, making her a typical mysterious girl. She shares a romantic-like friendship with Uta.
Gear: Shurshagana
Shurshagana's distinctive feature is its versatility. It can launch discus saws from its twin-tailed headgear at its opponent, use its shape as a wheel to move, act as a wall to block attacks, and even transform the bottom of its skirt into a blade to slice through its opponents. Its versatility is high, but it's ranked this low for the same reasons as Singing.
6th Place: Maria Cadenzavna Eve

A diva who calls herself Fine and leads the armed organization Shirabe and Uta against the entire world. In the end, she joins Uta and Shirabe and Hibiki's allies. She is one of the most popular characters in the series. While her appearance and personality suggest a bold and unwavering leader, she also has a girly side, eager to go to the beach in the summer and excited by a shrine filled with rabbits. She also has a "flawless" side, as all of her strategic moves backfire... It's this contrast that captivates her fans...
Gear: Agatelam
She treasured a fragment of the Agatelam worn by her younger sister, Serena, and Elfnein's alchemy brought it back to life, allowing it to be used as Maria's Symphogear. It excels in wide-area attacks, firing countless daggers and rapid-fire light bullets. She also inherited Serena's special abilities, including vector manipulation, giving her excellent defensive capabilities.
5th Place: Chris Yukine

She first appeared in episode 3 of the first season, and after fighting with Hibiki and the others, she became a friend. When she first appeared, she had no friends, but was touched by Hibiki and the others' kindness, becoming the show's most easy-going character. She has a cute, tsundere personality, and her popularity is so great that her solo performance (Classroom Monochrome) in episode 4 of "Senki Zesshō Symphogear G" was hailed as a "godly" episode.
Gear: Ichiival
She's capable of long-range, wide-area fire using crossbows and gatling guns. She also uses bows and missiles to provide rear support for Hibiki and the others, while also providing firepower. She can also use the Reflector, which deflects a blow powerful enough to pierce the moon, as shown in the final episode of "Senki Zesshō Symphogear G."
4th Place: Tsubasa Kazanari

A female defender from the previous generation, Tsubasa is a reliable older sister figure. She harbors animosity toward Hibiki, who inherited Kanade's Gungnir and is her only source of comfort. However, they reconciled thanks to Hibiki's straightforward personality. Also, as a female defender, she can be described as useless outside of combat. She has devoted herself to training since she was a child, and is so bad at cleaning her room that she makes her manager, Ogawa Shinji, clean up her underwear.
Gear: Ama no Habakiri
From a young age, she showed great potential as a Symphogear compatible, referring to herself as a "sword" and constantly honing her skills. She also excels in close-combat swordplay. She also boasts impressive combat prowess, using tricky attacks like flying slashes that utilize the opponent's shadow to freeze their movement, and the ability to enlarge her weapons to block attacks.
3rd Place: Hibiki Tachibana

The protagonist of this work. She was one of the victims of the Noise attack that occurred at a live concert two years prior to the main story. During that incident, she housed a fragment of Kanade's Gungnir within her body. Later, she gained the ability to wield Gungnir in response to Hibiki's feelings. She is a straightforward girl with a strong sense of justice. Her passionate feelings have an impact on those around her. His righteous actions have earned him numerous praise from fans, who call him "handsome."
Gear: Gungnir
His fighting style is close-quarters combat. He learned from Kazanari Genjuro a technique that involves striking his opponent with a powerful blast of power on par with a Zesshō. Unlike other Gear users, he lacks other techniques. However, he makes up for this with his exceptional ability to combine the powers of other Gear users.
2nd Place: Kanade Amou
Source: Senki Zesshō Symphogear ©Project Symphogear AXZ
One of the twin vocal units "Zwei Wing." Tsubasa's former partner. A big sister-type leader, she's perfect for leading everyone. She notices Tsubasa's nervousness before a live performance and provides support, demonstrating her consideration for the smallest details. Despite his relatively early departure, dying in the first episode of the first season, he remains immensely popular with fans.
Gear: Gungnir
Originally unable to become a compatible, he became one after Ryoko overdosed on the compatibility drug. This limited his combat time, but he boasts high combat prowess. His fighting style is spectacular, with him spinning his spear at high speed to create a tornado that blows away surrounding enemies, or duplicating a thrown spear and piercing Noise with countless flying spears. His combat abilities are so high he could be said to be a match for a thousand men.
1st Place: Genjuro Kazanari

He is the commander of the Second Division of the Special Disaster Countermeasures Mobile Unit and possesses extraordinary combat abilities. He uses mysterious martial arts and possesses high physical abilities. He is Tsubasa's uncle and Hibiki Tachibana's master. Although there aren't many actual battle scenes, he occasionally shows glimpses of his power as the strongest, stopping Tsubasa's special move with his fist or overwhelming Fine in Nehushtan armor with his martial arts skills. This has earned him the nicknames "The Strongest Old Man" and "The Extraordinary Man" from fans.
