Symphogear, also known as Senki Zesshou Symphogear, is a Japanese anime television series produced by Encourage Films, with production assistance from Satelight, which aired on Tokyo MX between January 6, 2012 and March 30, 2012.

Senki Zesshou Symphogear synopsis from Haruhichan:
Two years ago, a pair of idols, Tsubasa Kazanari and Kanade Amou, collectively known as ZweiWing, fought against an alien race known as Noise using armor known as Symphogear. To protect a girl named Hibiki Tachibana, who got severely wounded by the Noise, Kanade sacrificed herself. Two years later, as Tsubasa has fought the Noise alone, Hibiki ends up gaining the same power as Kanade.
