  1. Can someone clear me something? The first ep barely aired and now a concert (among others) is announced. Is that normal?

    1. Concerts for anime that star popular singers is not unusual, and in Symphogear's case it was expected because there was a concert last year. However, an announcement right after episode 1 came as a surprise because it's really fast! But I think they wanted to keep the fans excited without making them wait until the season was over.
