The existence of Parallel Worlds (並行世界 Heikō Sekai?), alternate universes or multiverse is a recurring concept in Senki Zesshō Symphogear XD Unlimited.
Overview[]
The existence of parallel worlds is first mentioned when the Gjallarhorn relic suddenly became active after the events of the Magical Girl Incident. With the relic now being active, the Symphogear users are able to travel through parallel worlds through the relic.
Multiversal Travel Methods[]
There are currently two ways to travel to the multiverse.
Gjallarhorn[]
The Gjallarhorn portal
- Main article: Gjallarhorn
The first and common way for the Symphogear users to travel to parallel worlds is the usage of the Gjallarhorn relic.
Elekleid[]
The Elekleid portal
- Main article: Elekleid
Blitzers are able to travel to parallel worlds through portals opened with the Elekleid.
Duplicator[]
The Duplicator (デュプリケイター Dupurikeitā?) is currently owned by an organization that aims to overthrow the world snake known as Skuld (スクルド Sukurudo?). This magic key is extracted from the Chaos Beast. In Chapter 3 of LOST SONG, one of the member, Julius lend the duplicator to Hibiki Tachibana so that she can cross to Hibiki Tachibana (Another)'s world to fight Tesla side by side with her.

| World of Kanade (奏の世界) | |
          In this world, Tsubasa was the one who sacrificed herself by singing her Superb Song instead of Kanade during Zwei Wing's concert. Later, Kanade discovered Bavarian Illuminati and Alchemic Cult. Event Timeline:
 In this world, Tsubasa was the one who sacrificed herself by singing her Superb Song instead of Kanade during Zwei Wing's concert. Kanade later stopped performing and has been fighting alone for three years. In this world, Hibiki Tachibana did not become a Symphogear user. Major incidents such as Luna Attack (ルナアタック), Frontier Incident (フロンティア事変) and Magical Girl Incident (魔法少女事変) did not exist. Therefore, the Treasury of Babylonia did not close and Noise still appears. The whereabouts of Solomon's Cane and Nehushtan Armor were unknown. Karma Noise existed and appeared during the Zwei Wing's concert and Tsubasa sang her Superb Song to defeat it. Ryoko Sakurai was alive, but it's unclear if she has awakened and become Finé. Mr. Ogawa has quit the second section after Tsubasa's death.  After the incident in Katayoku no Sōsha, Kanade relaunched herself as a singer again. Mr. Ogawa still did not appear in this event and there was no whereabouts of Kanade's manager. There was an NGO activity group called "Sirius Symphonic Orchestra", where this group of people performed in charity concerts amid war zones to bring smiles to victims and refugees. As a child, the alchemist Alicia Bernstein belonged to this group. Chris' parents also belonged to this group in this world. Alicia possessed a relic called Armonica (アルモニカ) that had the ability to make all humans sleep. Alicia also has control over Bergelmir (ベルゲルミル), a living, complete relic similar to Nephilim. It has a special ability to use cold air and its power exceeds that of the Ignite Module. In order to counter Bergelmir, Ryoko borrows it from EU who found the Brísingamen (ブリーシンガメン), a complete relic in the shape of a necklace that belonged to the goddess Freyja. Kanade awakened the relic in the presence of Bergelmir and wore it in a form of Brísingamen Gear to defeat Bergelmir. The series of incidents by the Sirius Symphonic Orchestra was later named the "Blackout Incident" (ブラックアウト事件).  After the Blackout Incident in Sōyoku no Sirius, the organization called the Alchemist Association (錬金 術師協会), which was similar to the Bavarian Illuminati and the top three brass and the director Adam Weishaupt have been confirmed. However, Tiki, the autoscorer did not exist. Adam does not seem to be particularly involved in the Blackout Incident caused by the Sirius Symphonic Orchestra. The Lapis Philosophorum Faust Robe has already been completed and he seems to have managed it without the help from Château de Tiffauges. In this world, Adam has a property known as "Adam Sphere" (アダムス フィア), the MacGuffin of this event. It was a device for storing Adam's magical power and it has a very dangerous Tunguska class hidden power. In this world, Adam was a good man. He has a strong sense of companionship and a sense of responsibility as the head of the organization. Similar to the Main World, only Saint-Germain knows his true appearance.  In this event, Adam created a theme park named "Providence Park" (プロビデンス・パーク). It was extremely large, powered by the "Adam Sphere" and has various facilities. Providence was a concept such as "providence" or "will of God" in Christianity. The park also featured the Eye of Providence (プロ ビデンスの目), the eye-based design has a mark with an eyeball on top of a pyramid-shaped one. It also appears in the event logo. The automaton made by Adam was operating as a mascot and staff, called "Pelican-kun" (ペリカンくん) and "Lion-kun" (ライオンくん). Both were familiar animals in alchemy.  Carol Malus Dienheim in this world belonged to the Alchemist Association and acquaintance with Saint- Germain and others. Although it was not explained in the Senki Zesshō Symphogear AXZ, the technique of incinerating "memories" was heretical. The Izak Malus Dienheim in this world has also been burned at the stake in the Inquisition. After that, Carol began to hate the world similar to the main world story. It also appeared that Izak has made the prototype of Arca Noise and now Carol completed it. Château de Tiffauges was then created later and mentioned in this event. It also appeared that Château de Tiffauges was originally built by Prelati but ended up stolen by Carol to cause the Magical Girl Incident. Compared to the main world story, Carol's Château exploded when forcibly reconstructed. However, this world's Prelati's Château has the ability to reconstruct after disassembly. This event also introduced the original XDU character called Noel (ノエル). He was the counterpart of Elfnein in the main world, a waste skeleton, but he was given considerable knowledge as a preliminary for the execution of the plan. However, he became rebelled against Carol after he had touched the complete relic Dáinsleif. When countering Noel, Saint-Germain realized their Lapis Philosophorum did not complete and somehow Carol's Lapis Philosophorum left by Izak was revealed to be completed. Adam, later in the event revealed Izak was an old friend of his.  Jeanne d'Arc (ジャンヌ・ダルク) who appears this time was one of the heroes who played an active part in the war hundred years ago. Her follower Gilles de Rais (ジル・ド・レ) revived her through alchemy. Since Jeanne was deceased, Gilles revived her by extracting data about her from Akashic Records (アカシックレコード) and downloading it into her body. In the Main World, Akashic Records was a Yggdrasil's information library, so it was quite dangerous in many ways. Gilles who conduct this dangerous study has been sealed by Adam. Saint-Germain on the other hand, in this world once taught Jeanne about warfare. The resurrected Jeanne uses Fierbois' Sword (フィエルボワの剣), also known as Michael's Sword (ミカエルの剣) along with a technique called the Shine of the Saint (聖女の輝き), which will erase the surrounding object by wrapped in light. It seems that those who were erased will be transferred to the isolated space and will continue to be sucked up by what was called the existing force. At the end of the event, a counterpart of Jeanne who originally appeared in Uragiri no Cadenza event, also appeared in this world.  This event took place in Providence Park and introduced Orem (オレム) an alchemist who looks like an old woman. In this event, Carol and her Autoscorers enjoy their holiday and chill near a swimming pool. Adam, on the other hand, gives the Autoscorers a mental imagery into Swimsuit Form, allowing them to play around the swimming pool. While Carol let down her guard, Orem appeared and uses her special net to kidnap Carol. It was then revealed Orem kidnapped Carol was to extract all her knowledge as she claimed that after extracting Carol's knowledge into herself, she will become the top Alchemist in the world and everybody will know the name "Orem". It also turned out that Orem in the past made a mermaid appearance Autoscorer, named Merrow (メロウ) but a failed version, so it ended up being used to vent all her anger and made herself feel good later. The Autoscorers made friends with Merrow and were led to Orem. Upon meeting Orem, she scolded Merrow for leading her enemies to her and forced Merrow to fight the Autoscorers until she broke. The Autoscorers were reluctant as they just made friends with Merrow who was also an Autoscorer like them, but under Carol's command, they countered Merrow. Carol then frees herself from the net and surprises Orem with an attack. After Orem was defeated, Merrow's function stopped and under Carol's command, the Autoscorers bring her back to Providence Park. When the Autoscorers thank Adam for the swimsuits that allow them to fight easily in the water, he then mentioned that the swimsuits were originally made by Carol herself, with a design match to each Autoscorers' attribute and personality. As for Merrow, Carol mentioned she will repair her and Adam will prepare the necessary parts. After the repair, Merrow can be Providence Park's manager due to her suitable mermaid appearance.  Samael (サマエル) was a custodian (カストディアン) that Adam mistakenly thought who made him. Upon meeting Samael, Adam was easily brainwashed by Samael with an order to exterminate all alchemists. It was later Carol tried various ways and finally convince Adam of the promise he made with her father, Izak and finally awaken. It was then revealed that Samael also known as Crimson Serpent (赤 い蛇). According to the Old Testament, Samael was a red serpent who lured Adam and Eve into eating the forbidden fruit. In this event, the fragment of Lapis Philosophorum given by Carol to Leiur combined with energy from Phara, Garie, and Micha, giving Leiur her Golden Heart Mechanics form. Later in the event, Saint-Germain, Cagliostro, and Prelati combined their Lapis Philosophorum fragment into a single complete stone and give it to Carol, causing Carol to gain Alchemic Gold form. The golden radiance also allows Adam to Mental Imagery into half golden Baphomet form.    | |
| World of Adults (大人たちの世界) | |
   A world where Section Two existed but not the Symphogear system. In this world, Finé tried to take over the world with Kadingir but stopped by Genjuro and enrolled in Section Two. She then developed RN-Type Revolutionary Specialized Armor which allowed the user to fight Noise. This armor was activated by user's mental power instead of song. The armor also has similar effect as Symphogear system where it can disable Noise's Phase Contrast Barrier and has Barrier Coating. Event Timeline:
 A world where Section Two existed but not the Symphogear system. In this world, Finé tried to take over the world with Kadingir but was stopped by Genjuro and enrolled in Section Two. Without Hibiki existing in this world, the medical case of a fusion between a relic and a human being did not happen. Finé thus unable to fuse with Nehushtan Armor and regenerative abilities of the armor was never brought out, therefore Finé in this world was weaker and easily stopped by Genjuro. After Finé enrolled in Section Two, she developed RN-Type Revolutionary Specialized Armor which allowed the user to fight Noise. This armor was activated by the user's mental power instead of song. The armor also has similar effect as Symphogear system where it can disable Noise's Phase Contrast Barrier and has Barrier Coating.      | |
| World of Serena (セレナの世界) | |
   A world where all Symphogears were wiped out except Serena, who survived and was put into frozen sleep. In compared to Main World, Maria was the one who successfully activated Nephilim instead of Serena. In this world, Karma Noise existed and majority of receptor children, including Maria, Shirabe and Kirika were killed by them. The Section Two was existed before disband after Symphogears did not return when they stopped the Lunar Attack by Finé. This world then only justify F.I.S. with Professor Nastassja in lead with Serena as solely Symphogear user. Event Timeline:

| World of Sharon (シャロンの世界) | |
  A world where Section Two is led by Yatsuhiro Kazanari and the Symphogear System was abandoned after its only test candidate died. It is later revealed that the project was continued in secret. Tsubasa (Another), Chris (Another) and Sharon were introduced in this world. Event Timeline:
 A world where Symphogear has failed to be put into practical use. Sakurai's theory does not exist in this world and the Symphogear system advocated by F.I.S. scientists has developed the power to fight noise. However, the study was discontinued without demonstrating the usefulness of Symphogear because the user was killed by Karma Noise effortlessly. The first and last Symphogear user in this world was called Tina Wheatley (ティナ・ウィートリー), where she was also one of the F.I.S. scientists. In addition to Noise, there was a threat of humanoid robots called Auto Machines. Unlike Noise, it's better because physical attacks were effective, but it's also difficult to fight without Symphogear. It seems that Section 2 began to appear around the time when Yantra Sarvaswa was lent to F.I.S. Section 2 at this time was led by Yatsuhiro Kazanari. The Auto Machine was manufactured and operated by the relic Vimana, which was a flying battleship that appears in Hinduism, but the one that appeared in this event was a combination of Vimana with multiple relics and machines. It was researched and developed as a force against Karma Noise to replace Symphogear. It was then revealed that Yantra Sarvaswa was being used to operate the flying battleship Vimana and one of the people who conducted an artificial fusion case experiment as a biological part was Sharon (シャロン), the original XDU character. Oswald (オズワルド), the mastermind of the series of incidents, was the husband of Tina Wheatley mentioned above and Sharon along with her other sisters were his step-daughters. Oswald was also the director of NEXT, a special research department of F.I.S. and an old friend of Yatsuhiro. Oswald did not treat them as his daughters but only as his belongings, similar to the main world Fudo Kazanari, where he used them as a power to protect the world even if this power will kill all the daughters. Sharon who became a fusion with Yantra Sarvaswa was then brainwashed to clean away the happy memories spent with Hibiki, Tsubasa, and Chris and forced to further fuse with Vimana. Oswald mentioned that Sharon had become Vimana's brain and heart.  Tsubasa Kazanari (Another) and Chris Yukine (Another) of this world belong to an organization called Kagemamo (影護). Kagemamo was an illegal organization that aims to steal and destroy relics and heretical techniques. It seems that Genjuro of this world launched it. Ryoko Sakurai was once enrolled and created Symphogear. Ryoko also awakened and become Finé. After that, there was a weapon of mass destruction called Doomsday (ドゥームズデイ), which was a patchwork with relics and heretical technology. Kagemamo was once destroyed in this battle with this Doomsday two years ago, causing both Genjuro and Ryoko to die in this battle. This Doomsday was a red bipedal robot that looks like crustaceans such as crayfish, crabs, and shrimp. It fires a laser that extinguishes any subject. It was developed by a research institute in Anaheim (アナハイム) in the United States. After the battle, Kagemamo was revived and led by Kusagi Kazanari (風鳴九皐), Genjuro's older brother. Both Tsubasa and Chris of this world wear a cloak on the gear and are similar to Genjuro of this world. It was a high- performance cloak that can reduce not only the impact but also the beam.   | |
