Let's fix that
platinum is cute
No Jubei, no buy
Why does Rachel have to suffer so?
wow look at all these fucking lameass changes I don't give a shit about and two fucboi new characters with obligatory Nine
>Terumi is good
DAY 1 BUY
I played online and some guy made fun of me after beating me several times. I feel so triggered.

>Played against a platinum player, someone I've fought before and had good games with
>Picked makoto because I wanted to practice her
>Combos me into a corner and just wins the first round from there
>2nd round he corners me again and does a couple mix-ups on me until my health is in astral condition
>Then he just walks forward (for more heat, I think)
>I do a couple combos on him but then he hits me with a frying pan and astrals me
>I open the pause menu and quit back to the room because I never liked how long some of these astrals are
>He then leaves the room
Fuck, I probably seemed bitter as hell.
>>317439383
hmm you mentioned Makoto in your post but forgot to post her, i got your back

Playing BBCP story mode. So, when do I get to punch something? Also the plot still makes no sense.
>>317439139
>>317439490
Have you been following the story up until now? Because it'll make slightly less no sense.
CPE also had a cutesy recap of the first two games that basically tells you nothing, but you do get to hear Rachel say "BLOODY HELL," so I thought it was worth the forty dollars.
>>317439676
>>317439869
>>317439907
>>317439490
You don't do much punching in BBCP story mode. Aside from a couple contrivances, the fights actually have context and a meaning to actually WHY they're fighting. A couple times were just "I DON'T LIKE YOU, LET'S FIGHT / I'M GOING TO MISTAKENLY FIGHT YOU INSTEAD OF TALKING IT OUT" But nothing as much as the last couple entries.
So you'll only fight when there's reason to fight. Turns out conflicts can be solved through talking. Who knew?
>>317439139
I approve.
>>317440006
Unfortunately that also means there's like no fights and half the time you're playing as Ragna with no drive.
Also I'm really tired of that whole god damn bit where you soundly kick the other guy's ass but still lose in cutscenes. Why can't they just let you play as the guy who's supposed to win in every fight?

It's been like two days, where the hell are these coming from?
Although it is not looking good for Rachel.
>>317441007
I want to mate with Makoto.
I haven't seen anyone use Makoto's new move in mixups while Tsubaki's new move adds some crazy ass dimension to her playstyle that makes her mixup much scarier. I think Tsubaki looks more promising.
>>317441106i don't play fighting games, i just love Makoto
>>317441106
Good stuff, thanks.
Not Makoto related, but Nightmare Edge was one hit on the way down in the early loketests, wasn't it?

Wasn't Jin terrible in CS?

In my understanding Izayoi wasn't too popular before, or at least in CPEX.
I wonder if that will change now.
>>317441826
Most of the time when I see it, it gets blocked.
>>317441828

Probably never.
Why the fuck did they give him that?
>>317442271
i'm not actually sure since i never played online back in cs
More Gameplay!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3U6Z4Xiy0j4
>>317443035
Maybe people were just bitter about losing the wiggle.
Anyone else think the music got more generic in CP? They kinda ruined the original theme songs for the old characters.
>>317444524
I don't know to be honest family. I stopped caring bout the music after CP.
>>317444524
You're not alone in disliking the remixes.
>>317444524
Define generic
>>317443876
Oh, they toned down Active Flow. In the location tests, it seemed to give you a completely ridiculous 70% of your burst back and now it's half that.
>They gave Azrael a DP
>They removed Rachel's pumpkin
>They gave Azrael a DP
>They gave Azrael a DP
>They gave Azrael a DP

>Arakune's overdrive instant curses
Does anybody else find this stupid? Especially since Active Flow can give you overdrive faster
>>317445289
Is that what was happening? I thought I was crazy and that Arakune was getting a hit in somewhere that I wasn't seeing.
If that's really how it works, yeah, that is going to be the most annoying bullshit.
Looks like Gadget Finger places the opponent farther away from Tager. I mean he still has magnetism, but it will make getting out of those mix ups easier now.
Did anyone clear Tsubaki/Izayoi's arcade routes yet?
Are there two Tsubakis running around or do they have continuity like Noel/Mu?
>No, I won't put Jubei in because he is too small, inbox issue blah blah
Then make him wear these things. It's Japanese as fuck and fits his character design. Fucking Mori.
>>317446046
It was in one of the other threads, forgot which one. I'll try to dig it up for you
>>317438784

>>317440680
>Terumi top
Okay, bullshit. He got an overhead and plus j.2d and some neat bnb replacements but he's still gotta be shitboxes and no air game.
Plus no cheese Messengas anymore, just fatal counter anti-zoner ones
>>317444524
I like a few remixes but overall they're lower quality than the originals.
Exceed Accel only costs you your overdrive or does it also consume your Heat gauge?

so no
>>317448391
I don't know man it looks pretty solid to me. The only thing I'd say is Noel should be up a tier and maybe bring Kokonoe down.
Wow, Ragna's Nightmare Edge is pretty good.
From the looks of it and what it does, I'm liking it more than Belial Edge.
>>317448487
it's a day 2 tier list, it means jack shit
looks more like he just took that evernote summary and threw the rest of the characters in
there's zero reason for Bullet to be A tier, or Terumi S. Also even though Lambda has potential on paper, so far literally nobody did anything impressive with her
>>317448961
God, looking at how shit Terumi is and then seeing someone post that BS tier list made me sad
>>317448961
>Bullet
>A Tier
>>317448961
>Lambda has potential on paper, so far literally nobody did anything impressive with her
Woah there buddy I think you need to open your eyes. Lambda is CF is a huge upgrade from CPEX
>>317449392
I think you need to open your eyes there buddy, where oh where are the vids for my eyes to see? Got any links?
Any Day 2 Tier list is shit. There's no way people have played enough to figure out all the new match-ups and who stands where with all the changes and buffs/nerfs. Even most of the impressions from the pros were just them saying it's too early to say anything solid.
Give it at least a week before taking any tier list at face value.
>>317449392
CF Lambda is waay better than CPEX for sure (better zoning, actual mixup etc), but you don't put her on A tier if nobody is showing what the character can do
zero impressive footage so far, I mean look at this crap
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7PPxM0OtoWI#t=1m58s
she's pretty different from CPEX so I'm optimistic about her development, but nobody's putting the work yet

>that neutral 5D range
>that afterburner speed
Not being able to combo into 5D from 5C anymore honestly doesn't seem that bad now.
>>317450490
That command grab looks so fucking brutal.

Thats a bit horrifying

>chibi nine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zh4lQRv_BiU
Naoto honestly looks really fun. I like how in your face his gameplay seems to be.
Shame it sounds like he's mediocre from all impressions so far. His DP beats out Ragna's though.
who are the kebabs of blazblue?
>>317450490
I'm still mad about having to drop my pressure just to use Afterburner
at least Flint Shooter going fullscreen even at H0 is pretty good
Looking at the character select screen there's space for at least 9 more hexagons.
There's 2 really obvious gaps in the dead center.
>>317451362
I was expecting a fist fighter like makoto but he mostly kicks in his combos. I was excited about him at first but then I saw that his combo routes are just something something banishing fang, something something banishing fang INFERNO CRUSADER. I was expecting more than that but I'll try him out anyway.
I just noticed Valkenhayn and Carl got new standing overheads. Guess they're trying to make this game much more mixup heavy
>>317452074
Yeah, the biggest problem with him is how straightforward he looks, but that was probably the intent. Guess he's supposed to be a beginner character like Ragna.
Minami is doing some neat combos with him in that video. That Drive combo he does about 40 seconds in was cool.
>>317452279
sometimes I forget CT's HUD was fucking ugly
>>317452429
Yeah it was cool, I'm just worried that he'll be TOO simple and everyone would just block him with ease.
>>317452556
His overhead doesn't look that great but his normals look decent and he has toetap confirms. You can probably get some shenanigans going with his Sway Shift too.
Man, I'd kill for a CF arcade cabinet here.
Any late night lobbys right now?
>Terumi's new overhead
>he just fucking headbutts you with his hands in his pockets
Man I don't care if he's an overused scrub character. I love how disrespectful all his attacks look.
>>317452729
Do any part of banishing fang his high?
>>317452771
I don't think so
>>317452957
I love how cocky his Japanese voice sounds
>https://youtu.be/d6xQatyVh5k?t=2836
So you can combo off of Bullet's command grab even from the opposite side of the screen as long as you're in Level 2.
>>317452279
Guard Libra needs to come back.
>>317452729
Yeah, his Sway Shift looks really useful. Though I haven't seen anyone uses it.
>>317453107
*hits high
Does anyone know what they did to hazama besides taking the I-Frames off of SUPER SNAKE KICK? Every time I see one he just does the same stuff from CPEX.
>people saying Bang is S
>no gameplay to show this off
No way that we're CS1 again.
>>317452969
Wait wut? Is this some modded fanmade stuff?
>>317452957
They kind of removed even more of his scrub stuff in favor of hard shit with worse payoff. He's basically low tier hero mode.
CF doubled on that it looks like with harder BnBs and nerfed supers.
Too bad everyone's going to hate you for using him forever no matter what since CP1.0 was a thing.
>>317453330
Can't no charge stance specials from neutral now, you have to land his new special (Jagai?) to do that
Chain recovers slower
There's more but I don't remember, might as well just check dustloop if you want to know.
>>317453465
now do a SUPER SNAKE KICK
>>317453330
Ouroboros stocks don't recharge as fast anymore so he can't poke you safely from fullscreen forever now, which is a huge nerf and the main reason people aren't projecting him to be high tier anymore.
>>317453361
>Jagoku no longer connects full if the opponent is airborne
I can't believe they sat down together, discussed this, and made the conscious decision that this was okay.
I'm completely new to fightans.
I suck and I can't perform even basic combos, but I've been practicing.
Am I supposed to focus on one character and get comfortable with it, and learn the game with it?
I've only been playing Jin so far, and a bit of Platinum Trinity and I don't know if this is a smart thing to do. I can't play other characters for shit.
Playing continuum shift extend here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-C03on6ujQA
Video with a lot of Bullet play starting around the 18 minute mark.
Her command grab looks really fucking good now that people are actually using it and her pressure in general seems more scarier. Looks like you actually have to give her an iota of respect now even when she's not in Level 2.
>>317453595
Fellow shit fighta anon here, fuck Jin, play Tager.
Why?Cause its a fuckhuge guy with mad control over the oponent with grabs that will make the oponent curse your lineage.
Surprising them with a circle b after blocking all of their combos is always just so fucking fun.
>>317453595
learning fighting games is a long process. It's like learning a musical instrument. The most important thing to do is keep playing to get a feel of what to do and the rest will fall in place.
>>317453582
Well, it does do corner carry now and you can at least do 5B 5C 3C 22Cmax 236D 5A 6A hj.C1 j.D j.2D for a midscreen combo. I don't know if the 5A is a microdash only thing or not.
Messenga completely losing strike invuln is unforgivable, though.
>>317453921
This or fap to waifus
>>317453595
sticking to one character at first is good, but it's also worth trying out characters a little bit (like doing the first few challenges or tutorial mode) just to check who fits you best
Jin is a good character to teach you fundamentals, but if you enjoy playing Platinum of course it's fine to keep her as well
>>317454091
why is a boy wearing a bikini?
>>317453221
The timing on it is too exact. It's the same reason people rarely use Hakumen's Drive.
>>317454559
It's not about timing.
Haku players tend to use his drive less because it's easily punishable and anybody who played with H-man players a little is wary of it.
Beside his Drive is basically a reversal in the form of a counters, so it's logical that if you overuse it people will start to bait it.
what did the pillow noel gave to ragna look like?
>>317445853
GF was already a poor option in CPE since 4D and 2D put you at a much better frame advantage, CF just made it complete shit.
thread is sleeping
>>317455542
Like this.
Watching Hazama play I don't think he looks that bad. He still has the gay screen control and safe pressure. It looks like that's enough to make him good.
>Terumi is worse

When this happened
>>317460179
Masturbating must be one helluva a ride.
>>317440680
What the hell. Blazblue hasn't always had this many s-tiers has it? Although I don't know much of balance as the last game I've purchased was CSE (waiting for CPEX in january). From my understanding chronophantasma had rather good balance.
I suppose having more s-tiers is better than having a select few, though.cough cough CT
>>317444986
Thank god for that. Maybe next they can undo some CT-tier decisions (Azrael dp, arakune instant curse, etc) and although it's not as bad now that active flow has been nerfed and thus indirectly nerfing exceed accel, maybe some tweaks are in order.

From Dustloop
>Izayoi
>3 Hibiki
>6 Jin
>7 Ragna
>8 Nine
>Hibiki is asking what Tsubaki is doing since she was supposed to be searching for Jin. Tsubaki says that she is going to do her real role, to bury the Grim Reaper. Hibiki says that Kagura haven't given out such an order, and he will stop her before she commits treason.
>Tsubaki stops Jin from chasing after Ragna since his wounds haven't fully healed. After battle Jin tries to stop Tsubaki but she runs of anyway.
>Tsubaki finds Ragna, but Ragna doesn't remember her, although he seems to recognize Izayoi. After the battle she tries to kill Ragna but Nine interferes.
>Tsubaki asks where Nine have put Ragna, but Nine refuses to tell her since she can't allow Ragna to die right now. Tsubaki says to Nine that she should know how dangerous Ragna is but Nine says that Ragna still has some uses.
>After the battle, Nine says that if Tsubaki wants to kill Ragna, she should kill Izanami before the doomsday.
>>317438106
Is that Shulk?
>>317464290
no, it's Light
>>317463165
>Losing to Tsubaki
How low you've fallen, Ragna.
>>317463165
How the hell do you beat Nu, yet lose to Tsubaki?
>>317465575
He can't help it. He's pretty much in lazy mode and is much weaker now.
>>317466162
Yeah but this is a new low even for him.
How do you lose to Tsubaki, but beat Nu? No matter how you cut it, the specs between Izayoi and the 13th Prime Field should be completely different.
Jin's one thing. After receiving such a huge injury from Ragna at the end of Chronophantasma, even Tager might be able to give him a run for his money. But fighting Murakumos is Ragna's specialty, and he even beat Nu.
>>317466383
It might have been familiarity, I guess. After all, Ragna's fought Nu at least three times now. More if you count past loops. Even if he can't draw out the bulk of his strength, his body probably remembers how to deal with Nu's attacks.
I'd imagine that's also how he's able to survive Fake Hakumen's assault without using the BlazBlue. He can't win, but he can at least avoid receiving any crippling injuries, I guess.
Good morning thread
>>317467325
Morning we're just discussing how low Ragna's fallen.
>>317470209
Thought that was Makoto there for a second.
Source?
>>317470938
I was never able to track that doujinshi down and don't know if it even got produced. That's all I have from it.
>>317467789
Losing to Tsubaki now? Christ, what happened?
>>317472287
Does that matter? Anything can happen in arcade mode. There was one continuity where Hakumen lost to Arakune.
>>317463165
So Izayoi is also in the "real world" where things have consequences.
Well, at least I'm assuming, because the continuity still doesn't match up.
Can anyone tell me how I get good with the character commonly known as Barrette? I don't care if she's good or bad competitively because I'm not good as a fighting game player overall.
>>317447868
>>317445289
It's bad, but it might not be THAT bad. It doesn't increase the curse meter, it only converts what's already there to a curse state.
https://youtu.be/3U6Z4Xiy0j4?t=46m21s
Still seems crazy strong, but at least it isn't free.
>>317473053
A butt for someone to help you out.
>>317465575
Ragna is for bullying.
>>317473053
Most important thing is to manage her heat level because without them she is very weak overall.
Learn some basic combos that end with one of her D moves to increase it every time you hit somebody.
Her neutral, like most characters depends against who you are fighting, with slower characters like Hakumen or Kagura you can sometimes try Afterburner (214D) when there is a lot of space between you and them.
With most characters you will have to depend on actually hitting and because most of her moves are inferior to the likes of Jin or Ragna, you have to be more tricky about your approach. Try using 236A to cover yourself ( Just don't overuse it because it can't be punished with good jump-in) and 2B ( it is just a good move).
When you finally acquire heat levels you get quite good reward of almost any hit and quick and cancelable dash. Remember to not waste your heat level meaninglessly on some 5A confirms or doing 5D pressure with defensive opponent.
Her reversal (623B) is not particularly good so be modest with it.
If you have problems with opponents that jump out of your mixup/pressure try using 623C to catch and punish them.
Always be aware how much time you have until your heat levels expire - this is crucial and it can easily kill you.
Anyway good luck.

It looks that way, the Tsubaki version of her story, she has no memories of the events that happened
Also from Dustloop
Tsubaki
>3 Tager
>6 Jin
>7 Kagura
>8 Nine
>Tager and Tsubaki doesn't have any memories for CP
>Tsubaki tries to convince Jin to return, with Jin saying that even with Izayoi one can't escape the Embryo(does Jin mean memory alterations?) and Jin then says that there would be no meaning to go back to the NOL now. After battle, Tsubaki is conflicted with Jin not going full strength while going against order. Tsubaki tells Jin to at least talk with Kagura but Jin says he doesn't have time for that. The screen turns black and someone cuts Jin.
>It was Kagura that cut Jin, and Kagura acts nothing like he did in CP. Tsubaki wanted Kagura to at least ask for the reason why Jin did this, but Kagura says the reason isn't important, it's only that going against law is a great sin. Kagura then asks if Tsubaki is going to go against the law and become a criminal also, and Tsubaki starts to feel like this isn't the Kagura she knows and starts to fight Kagura in order to let Jin escape.
>After the battle, Kagura says the he won't question Tsubaki any more since he had got report that the one that had chased after Jin had killed him.
>Tsubaki falls down on her knees and cries that Jin can't be dead for a thing like this, and suddenly gets a vision of her being Jin's secretary. And then she hears Nine's voice saying ”so that is your wish”.
>Even though Tsubaki hadn't regained he memories, she called Nine, Phantom and Nine. Which made Nine wonder if it was memories from Izayoi.
>Nine ”Your strong wish linked with my desired world, that is the requirement for the entitled” ”The entitled have the chace of having any wish granted”.
>After the battle, Nine says that she feels sympathy for Tsubaki for being treated by this crazy world that same way as she have.
>And to have her wish fulfilled, defeat Izanami.
So I've pirated Continuum shift for PC.
I'm really shit at fighting games and this is basically my first time playing fightans outside of parties and such.
Should I buy it on PC? Is online alive or should I look for somethin' else?
I've checked out guilty gear as well and I don't like the characters at all
>>317476730
Not alive on PC because Continuum Shift Extend is out of date and released too late. Chronophantasma Extend is releasing in January on PC, which should be about current with western consoles for a good amount of time, which might be more alive.
CSE might be worth buying if you want to get into the story though. Which you shouldn't, but I did anyway.
>>317445163
Azrael originally had a DP, then they tweaked it so that some characters can't punish him on hit, then removed it, then gave him back the DP because it was so fucking easy to destroy him on wake up. Why you might ask? All he had was his backdash and all 1 super that's invincible on startup has super long startup.
Fuck you.
WHERE
IS
BANGS
STORY
>>317478234
So can it be punished if it is blocked in CF?
>>317472287
I assume that he's just weaker than he was in the last game. That said, anything can happen in BB's arcade modes so who knows if that'll actually happen in the console game's story mode.
>>317478234
He needs to be destroyed on wakeup. Make this motherfucker have SOME weakness.
>>317479334
They didn't go into much detail but here it is...
Bang
>Carl
>Tsubaki
>Kagura
>Nine
>Asks Carl if they are going after the Grim Reaper together, Carl refuses.
>Thinks that Tsubaki(NOL) is attacking Litchi and thus fights.
>Bang calls Kagura a traitor, and Kagura says that Tenjou was assassinated and that Tenjou told Bang to take the citizens to Kagutsuchi.
>Nine says that for Bang to fulfill his wish, he must defeat Izanami.
>>317480401
... Of course, it's a DP.
>>317481272
>shit neutral
>awkward normals (either too short or long range)
>all his pressure has gaps because of links
>suffers most from OD cancels by other characters because of said links
also his DP ain't some Ragna/Kagura tier DP, it's pretty bad. You can pressure him for days if you know how to space yourself on his wake-up (there are OSs to catch his backdash).
>>317481419
Wow, it's fucking nothing
>>317481756
Bang is a minor side-character. Were you expecting the plot to revolve around him?
Nine is boss of Act 1 and Izanami is obviously Act 3 boss.
Who do you think will be boss of Act 2? I bet it's Es.
>>317481981
He had some some relevance in CP at least.
>>317483267
Yeah, he actually got to do something instead of just being a joke character. That doesn't mean he'll become important to the plot from now on though.
>>317482475

Is it considered gay if you get turned into a woman and start liking men?
Any moonspeaking anon capable of translating what they're saying in here? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ql77Kln3wk
I'm so fucking curious.
>>317487082
why would it be?
Do they hire different artists for the arcade illustrations everytime a new game comes out?
>>317487082
yes
>>317487445
Nope, CT and CP are both by Mori I believe, and CS and CF's are by a different guy.

No. Liking the opposite sex isn't gay.

It's natural for Mai to like boys now that she's a girl.
>>317491843

>Have a man
Anon please, the waifufags would riot.
>>317492794
Tsubaki is in love with Jin, Mai is in love with Taro and Shiori is in love with Mai. Makoto, Kajun and Noel aren't in love with anyone.
>>317493170
Well she fucked kagura.
>>317493170
Makoto prefers casual sex.
>>317493170
I think I'd be fine so long as its not kagura
>>317493325
Until she says yes I will deny that forever
>>317493493
autism awareness month was in april, my man
How the hell could the rest of team remix heart have an impact on the plot at this stage? For all we know, Mai,Kajun and Shiori were turned into seithr. I wonder what their desires would be.
>>317493839
Hopefully they won't.
Why is Ragna so popular with the ladies andJin?
>>317494034
But he's not.
>>317494034
Kagura I know its you
>>317487328
It's on dustloop and in the archive. I don't remember the whole thing, but it's something about how Nine is the fake Nu to fuck with Ragna, how Ragna's wish is the church scene reuined with his family, and how Ragna isn't one of the "Entitled," but Nine hopes that Ragna can gather the Nox Nyctores and defeat Izanami.
Most of the endings are kinda similar.
>>317493839
Mori could easily come up with a reason to make them relevant. And do you really think that Mori will kill off a bunch of characters off-screen for no real reason?
Mai's wish could be to protect the people she cares for or to prove her worth to her father. Shiori's main desire seems to be to protect Mai. Not so sure about Kajun; she cares for her friends but not as much.
>>317494512
Thanks, my man. I could pick out a few choice words, but that clarifies things a lot.
Makes me wonder if we'll get a new character for each act of the arcade mode. It would be pretty neat.
When will Ragna get an aerial distortion?
>>317493493
It's interesting how with a lot of Blazblue waifufags, winning the Ragnabowl trumps purity.
I guess it's similar to how in romanceor haremshit, you always want the best girl to win even if the protagonist sucks. But in this case the protagonist doesn't suck and people want girls who aren't even competing in the 'bowl to take home the prize.
what if CF ends by looping back to CT.but with Naoto replacing Ragna.
>>317495284
I will never understand how you shipperfags work.
>>317495598
A popular theory on 2ch right now is that Naoto is supposed to be the "real" Ragna.
Kind of baseless at this point, but I wouldn't put anything past Mori. At this point the best ending Ragna can hope for is just ceasing to exist entirely anyway.
>Jubei's swords can cut things which cannot be cut
Please let him be able to cut projectiles when he's finally playable.
>>317496242
Ragna will marry Celica and they'll live happily ever after.
>>317496385
>Marrying your own foster mom
No.
>>317495598
We riot.
>>317496385
Also riot.
>>317496242
I don't understand why they'd think Naoto is more "real" than Ragna.
>>317496924
Because Mori.
>>317496342
Hakumen already has that gimmick even if it's not his Drive.
From what we know of Jubei's powers he can cut what normally can't be cut and can also see the true form of things using his brother's eye. Don't know how either of those would translate to gameplay though.
Ragna is a fake
Saya is a fake
Noel is a fake of a fake
Rachel is a fake
Celica is a fake
The true protagonists this whole time were those assholes from Bloodedge experience and Mori finally got to break into the light novel scene like he wanted.
>>317495738
What's not to understand?
>>317496924
Dunno, but both Valk and Nine consider Naoto a huge threat because his existence in this timeline is apparently fucking with things. Valk tries to stuff him back into the Cauldron so he'll go back to his own time period.
>>317497293
But that shit stinks of generic harem
>>317497427
So shouldn't he be the fake as the outsider and not literally everyone else?
I mean I don't know why I'm pestering you with these questions when Mori just does whatever the fuck he wants. I think I just feel threatened because I like Blazblue and hate light novels.
Post the single most retarded plot twist you can think of and we'll see which ones are actually true when the console version comes out.
>It turns out Terumi was a good guy all along
>Naoto is Ragna's son/father depending on the timeline
>>317497635
You like visual novels and hate light novels?
>>317497635
I won't let Naoto take Ragna from me
>>317438106
This is one of the worst and most incoherent video game stories I've ever witnessed and the gameplay is mediocre too compared to other similar fighting games.
Why does anyone like this garbage?
>>317440680
>E: Rachel
Why do they hate her?
>>317497752
bedman is the master unit
>>317497752
adachi is the killer
>>317497895
Maybe they had flashbacks to her in CT and got PTSD so they overly nerfed her as a result.
Removing the pumpkin is straight retarded though. It was like the biggest part of her gameplan and her key to pressure and approaching people.
>>317497752
>Naoto replaces Ragna
>Jin/Ragna do not exist anymore
>Noel replaces Saya
>Storyline continues from CT with Naoto as Ragna, Raquel as Rachel, and Noel as his sister
Or
>Terumi was a good guy
>Amane is the big bad
>Carl turns into Relius
>>317497752
Hazama is Makoto's mom
>>317497752
Carl is actually Relius from the past somehow.
>>317440680

Time for me to try even harder.
>Nu: Rag...na...?
>Ragna: Saying kill or being killed while crying... >It's the same as a child saying “help me”.
>I see... so that's why I... I came to save you. I think.
Nu: ...I don't get it.
Ragna: Doesn't matter if you don't get, I don't get it really either. To begin with, we'll leave this place.
Nu: Why? For what reason do you “save”? … “Ragna”. What do you desire?
Ragna: My desire, you say? I...
Nu/Nine: What do you desire in this “worthless” world?
Nu/Nine: “Ragna the Bloodedge”!!
Ragna: Wha! What...? Is this my memory...? Who... Who are you...
Nine: Is that your desire? Seriously... it's so stupid...
Ragna: !?
Ragna: This is... Shit, what is going on!!
Nine: “It's been a long time”. Ragna... Ragna the Bloodedge.
Ragna: “Long time”? … who are you.
Nine: Doesn't matter who... For “now” it doesn't matter.
Ragna: Ke, after looking huh. … And, was all of “this” up until now your work?
Nine: I wonder about that. I'm only observing your dream.
Ragna: My dream?
Nine: That's right. Dream. That really stupid dream of yours.
Ragna: Don't say stupid over and over again... Just who do you think you are.
Nine: I'll say it several times, stupid, it's stupid. A dream that will never be granted...
And for that reason, even “that child” got dragged into it. Seriously... it's really stupid.
Ragna: That child?
Nine: No more talking. We don't have that much time.
Ragna: No use for arguing huh...!
Nine: Before the world approaches the complete doomsday, kill the Imperator, no, Hades Izanami with those hands of yours.
Ragna the Bloodedge. You know I... wishes from the bottom of my heart that Hades Izanami is being killed by your hands... Fuhuhuhu.
Man, fuck Nine, Where the hell does she get off calling such a desire stupid? Hypocritical bitch. You killed millions of people because you wanted to save your baby sister. Ragna just wants his family back, what right do you have to judge him or mock him?
Isn't Terumi's goal to destroy the Master Unit which is the exact same thing the MCs are trying to do?
I legitimately would not be surprised if they pulled a "I was just pretending to be evil to set things up so you guys would have the tools to defeat the bigger bad" moments before he dies (for real this time).
>>317498926
I would be so fucking mad. This guy single-handedly ruined Ragna's life and if he just pulled a "I WAS JUST KIDDING" I'd be so fucking confused.
>>317497775
Pretty much, yeah.
Visual novels are for when you have an idea that's probably too long and you can't afford to have it animated.
Light novels are for when you have no ideas but also can't draw so you make a script and then pay someone else to draw like five things.
Every light novel I've ever liked reads more like a regular book.
Does Blazblue have anybody who plays like Sho Minazuki?
>>317499838
Which one?
>>317497895
Too good for this world.
Nerfed in the story. Nerfed in gameplay. Going to die. Prospects of winning the Ragnabowl looking slim.
>>317499230
>Light novels are for when you have no ideas but also can't draw so you make a script and then pay someone else to draw like five things.
This smug assumption and generalization of "lelelel LN authors want to become mangaka but they can't draw so they just make LN heheh" is obnoxious as shit. And anyone who says that shit always sound condescending somehow believing their assumption is absolute fact.
Apparently there is 100% absolutely NO WAY that an LN author just wanted to make an LN, every single one of them wants to become a mangaka but make an LN because they can't draw.
>>317500042
Naoto will take her!
>>317499924
Regular sho, he plays more like a Blazblue character anyway cept he has no drive.
>>317500089
Not him, but novel adaptations adapted into anime rarely turn out good for some reason
>>317499838
>>317500182
For Sho, Hibiki sort of looks to be the same playstyle with double hitting moves, a rekka-like string I think, with a super comparable to Memesmasher.
>>317498790
As we all know from CP, saving Celica or even fake versions of Celica from her own suicidal tendencies is worth everyone else dying, because Celica is so pure and perfect that nothing else matters.
But Nu is still getting saved.
>>317500089
It's true though. Otherwise there'd be no point in writing in an eye-bleeding script format.
I'm a Hakumen main but I'm trying to sub Terumi, anyone have any tips?
>>317500374
>As we all know from CP, saving Celica or even fake versions of Celica from her own suicidal tendencies is worth everyone else dying, because Celica is so pure and perfect that nothing else matters.
>>317500291
Anime adaptions for LNs are usually just extended commercials to get people to buy the actual LN. It's rare that they get more than one season do you're pretty much forced to buy the actual novels if you want to find out what's going on. They often leave a lot of stuff out too.
A lot of people think that "Light Novel" means they're always short, easy to read books. But there are some of them that are as thick as fucking dictionaries.
Pic related. The Senjou no Horizon novels are huge.
>>317500676
>It's true though
See this shit? This is what I'm talking about.
So confident and certain of his assumption believing what he thinks is a fact WITHOUT any proof or evidence to back him up with his "what I think must be right BECAUSE I SAY SO".
>Hurr why wud they write light novel other than wanting to make manga but can't draw hmph, heh, kek. Look at me being a smug condescending shit
So, it is impossible to want to write a light novel without wanting to make a manga?
Your logic is fucking flawed, you said LN is when someone wants to make manga but can't draw, yet how come there are fucktons of manga where the story and art are handled by two different people(pic fucking related). If said LN authors actually wanted to make manga, they would partner up with an artist to actually, you know, MAKE a manga, instead of making a light novel.
You're a fucking annoying high-and-mighty smug conclusion-jumping prick. Get off that high horse.
CF should have a gag end featuring a cooking contest with Hazama and Mai as the judges.
>>317500364
Really? He seems more like Makoto with swords to me.

Unf.
She actually looks really solid this time around. That command grab is the tightest shit ever.
>>317502005
Design number 6 would of been best for Bullet. Just fix the hot pants so they don't have that stupid rip in them and she's golden. She actually looks like a fighter rather than a cosplaying street walker.
>>317501118
If you want to get technical, the definition of light novel seems to just be "includes some pictures and has anime on the cover."
When I think of light novels, I think of how the vast, vast numbers of them read like scripts. Also they're mostly written in first person for whatever reason. Neither of those are strictly true though. But since I'm painting in broad swaths anyway, I'm going to say that I don't like the trends and characteristics of light novels as a whole, or "I don't like light novels."
>>317501519
Still true though. Should just make a manga. Or write a book.

That's probably due to the whole Astral Vision style teleport shenanigans with Hibiki's drive, you could refer to that as his High Speed Movement, but he's the closest character BB has to Sho, and I say that as a Sho main myself.
Apart from that, there aren't any real characters that play like Sho, you could always try Terumi, he's quite simple to play like Sho, and aside from being a low tier hero type, he's pretty fun to play as, as well!I had this exact same trouble when I first started playing BB, so don't worry.
Sorry I can't really help that much, my solution was to find a different type of character to play.
>>317502457
>I don't like light novels
Then leave it at that instead of making shitty over-confident assumptions.
>Still true though
Oh, you're still doing this shit, eh, faggot? Why are you so sure about this? Why are you so deadset that "LN authors made LN because they want to make manga but can't draw"? What concrete evidence are you basing this off?
You keep repeating the "lel it's true, though. Still true, though lel" without actually proving a counter argument to support your case. I already pointed out the flaw in your logic by presenting a manga drawn and written by 2 different people respectively. That proves that if someone wants to make manga but can't draw, they would just partner up with an artist to make manga, instead of making LN.
So the fact that LN exists pretty much means LN authors just want to make LN, not because of their inability to draw manga. If they want to make manga, they would just partner up with a manga artist.
Stop being an arrogant faggot who jumps on the conclusion of the reasoning behind someone's decision of creating a work in a certain medium being their inability to create a work in another medium, dipshit. Get off that high horse.

And that is because?
Try to actually make your claim more than just an assumption with a smug attitude this time around. Try to provide concrete evidence that actually proves that "LN authors make LN because they can't draw manga" instead of your over-confidence shit that always say "WHAT I SAY ABOUT LN AUTHORS IS RIGHT RIGHT BECAUSE I THINK IT IS".
Pic related, a manga actually written by a light novel writer, and no, the writer cannot draw, someone else drew the manga for him. He still continues his light novels during this manga's publication and after, which means he wants to create an LN out of his desire, not because he wanted to make a manga.
What now, faggot?
>>317504998
One time case.

Nisio Isin can't draw, and since drawing is slower than writing, he's forced to make light novels. See, that's just more evidence for to the fact that it's true.
>>317504151
Same pass as always?
>>317505426
I'm jujst curious how far will he go making his claim but never show any proof or logic?
All he has been doing is making stupid assumption
>Oh, this writing style in light novel isn't really appealing to me. OH, I KNOW, THAT MUST BECAUSE THE AUTHOR WANTED TO BECOME MANGAKA BUT HE CANNOT DRAW SO HE MADE AN LN INSTEAD! YEAH, I MUST BE RIGHT!
Somehow ignoring the fact that there are tons of manga written by someone who cannot drawn while the art is handled by someone else. What a fucking idiot.

>>317503286
Or I could hope for a new character that could mimic his playstyle. Blazblue apparently has lots of characters in waiting but I don't know if any of them even have a dual wield style.
>>317505504
Then how come he made Medaka Box, a MANGA, together with an artist who handled the art, you stupid faggot?
He wanted to make a manga but cannot draw, so he partnered up with an artist to make one. Yet he still writes light novels, which means he makes LN out of his own desire, not because of his desire to make manga that cannot be fulfilled due to his inability to draw.
Try again. Come up with an actual evidence that can actually support your claim this time.
I have successfully proven you wrong with manga that has separate artist and writer, which is a solid proof that writer who cannot draw would just partner up with an artist to make a manga. What is your "Hurr LN authors made LN because they can't draw manga durr" claim other than a mere assumption?
>>317506048
Squirreltits is the bait used to get people into Blazblue.
How many people started playing just because of Makoto? I bet there's like at least like, five.
I started playing when I pirated CS2 for the psp
>>317506567

>>317506564
No, you missed my point. He wants to make a manga, so he partners up with an artist when he can't draw. But since there's not enough artists willing to work with writers to go around and the output of artists is slower than writers, he'd be starving on the street not doing anything when he's not working with someone with drawing talent. So in the downtime after he finishes writing and in the middle of serialization, he's forced to write light novels because the artists he'd be partnering up with is still working on the previous thing and he can't draw himself. See? Completely true.
>>317505814
>Writer who can't draw making a manga with someone else handling the art = Writer who can't draw but want to make manga will make LN instead
All these manga with separate writer and artist have successfully BTFO of you. How about you stop embarassing yourself?

Gee, then how come those manga writers who cannot draw and DON'T make LN can still make a living out of their manga which they partnered up with an artist to make?
Tsugumi Ohba isn't an LN writer.
Checkmate, motherfucker. Still waiting for your proof. Also, I gotta need citation for what you just said there. Actually YOUR WHOLE CLAIM about this matter needs a citation.
>>317506809CT Rachel for me. Liked her character design; I was too shit to actually play her.
>>317507516
Because those guys aren't lazy like LN writers who can't draw or find people to draw. Geez, you need to follow along better, it's so simple.
So if Nine wants everyone to kill Izanami, I guess she's no longer under her control. When the hell did that happened? She was still under Izanami's control at the end of CP.
>>317507974
Presumably Story mode will explain it.
>>317507974
Jubei freed her.
>>317507974
Jubei most likely broke her free of her mind control since that's what he's been trying to do since CS.
Bitches can't resist the cat dick.
>>317508273
>>317508437
She returned to Izanami after her fight, but I guess they can say that she was merely pretending.

>>317507935
>Because those guys aren't lazy like LN writers who can't draw
Then how come they need to partner up with an artist?
>or find people to draw
That means if they want to make a manga but they can't draw, they would look for an artist to make one, while when they make an LN, they just make one out of their own desire.
Checkmate, nigger. Where's the actual proof to your claim now?
>>317508273
When was this? After evil Nine showed that she retained memories and lucidity and kicked the crap out of him in CP?

Because they can't draw, but they're not lazy LN writers, so they find a means to make manga. LN writers want to make a manga, but they're lazy or can't find an artist, so they make LNs instead.
>>317509116
If that smug faggot hadn't opened his mouth thinking he knows the reasoning behind why LN author would make an LN like a smart ass who needs to be educated, thread wouldn't get derailed.

>>317509485
Y'all niggas should learn to stop replying to shitposts.
>>317509432
Weird.
You said earlier LN writers who write manga go write LN in the meantime the artists work.
Yet now you say that manga writers who don't write LN are not lazy like LN writers even though LN writers work more while manga writers who cannot draw and don't write LN don't do anything while the artists work so they have less things to do unlike LN writers who are also writing manga.
You're contradicting yourself here while desperately trying to come up with a response. Good job :^)
Checkmate. Anything else to say?
>>317510242
Shut the fuck up you goddamn moron. Are you fucking autistic? Stop replying to the same bait over and over.
What's the current status of every girl that likes Ragna?
>>317510242
Oh. I did say that, didn't I? I messed up.
You're right. Some LN writers just want to write LNs. I'll stop teasing you now.
I don't know about the other guy, though.
>>317510553
Noel wants to kill herself.
Celica just saw a fake Ragna die and she's very sad. Also sister's there too.
Rachel's dying but she wants to save Ragna. She feels uneasy about Naoto's presence, as it's thinning Ragna's exisence.
Nu wants to form a perfect fusion with him.
Lambda wants to kill everyone who might hurt Ragna. Her goal is to be with Ragna.
>>317444524
I really REALLY hate the remixes. I had hope that they would use the original music because they're back in Kagutsuchi, but NOPE.
Fuck Arcsys if they make them payed dlc in the home release again.

Anon, I'm not sure you know what that means...
They were all available for purchase in the gallery in CPEX, so you just had to play Arcade mode and online matches a couple times to get them all.Unless you're talking about Vanilla CP, in which case I'm a fucking idiot, apologies.
>shit character designs
>shit balance
>combat system so terrible they had to completely re-do a shit ton of major elements at least 3 times at this point
Face it. Blazblue is a shitty fighting game for weeaboos with bad taste who play it for a mediocre storymode.
>>317511410
Pretty sure he means vanilla CP where everything really was paid DLC. Classic ASW.
>>317511350
In everyone's dreams it's basically a living nightmare for them until Nine shows them a happy memory then uses it to spur them into taking Izanami on. Through in some she instead shows them a good dream then shows them a horrible nightmare and in some she shows them a nightmare and even worse nightmare like in Noel's, Makoto's and Tsubaki's.
>>317511108
To make the ending all the sweeter.Nah, Ragna's gonna fucking die and everything will be suffering forever.
Meanwhile, in Happy Kagura Land, Kagura's dreaming of government reforms, free universal healthcare and equality among races. Kaguracare is not a dream. Vote for Kagura.
>>317512213
who's gonna pay for everything huh
>>317512213
Kagura pls go and stay go
>>317512213
You don't vote for Kagura. You support his coup.
>>317512354
Ragna.
>>317510945
honestly, all remixes kinda grew on me after some timeexcept Oriental Flower II
>>317512403

>>317512403
where he gonna get the money huh
>>317512721
No more food for Tao.
>>317512721
He'll surrender himself to a trusted sponsor and they'll use his bounty to pay.
In other words, he'll pay with his life.
>>317512880

>>317513008

Switch to Stylish Mode.
>>317513215
Well, I guess that's how you run a proper Communist shithole. See you at the Two Minutes Hate to rage against the criminal Ragna the Bloodedge, comrade.
Which characters own vehicle licenses?
Obviously, Jin and Kagura do since they both own motorcycles. Tager probably doesn't have a license under his current identity, and to begin with, I doubt there are many vehicles that would be able to accommodate his size.
>>317453357
it's from a video telling the entire CT true ending
>>317513614
Don't. Stylish Mode is awful in situations where the character can't use their Drive. The auto-combos all have Drives and specials incorporated into them, so it can actually make those fights harder.
Just use Throws a lot. I find that works.
>>317514621
Even those aren't made for someone of Tager's size.
>>317503070
>Hakumen in 1.0

>>317482475
>Who do you think will be boss of Act 2?
>>317517082
In CP, it was 100% curse if you got hit, 50% on block.
In CF, they've changed it to overdrive to activating curse with whatever's in the curse meter at the moment of activation. No hit required.
>>317503196
It's more than just the Saber even if that's a very notable part of it.
The air Seraphim moves are ridiculously good space control, her new jB has a retardedly good hitbox, and she still has her ridiculous mixup (now made even safer thanks to the new D Saber)
Seigi Girl is looking amazing.
tsubaki is cute.
GG's to everyone in the lobby

>>317518283

>>317518292

I got to the part in the story where Tsubaki turned into Izayoi. I loved her emotions, she was flowing with rage and passion. That makes me appreciate the character in a new light.
Why can't Jin and Noel get along?
>>317511410
>Unless you're talking about Vanilla CP
>>317511573
This. I don't have Extend, so I didn't know about them being available by playing the game now.
>>317519614
Including the DLC in Extend is one of those odd gestures that's nice, but also probably pisses off everyone who bought a thing for vanilla only to have the money wasted a few months later.
>>317517239
It already does that in Extend
>>317519894
Oh, then nothing's changed.
>>317519873
By that reasoning there should never be a new version of a game ever.
>>317517227
Nu will get what she want's won't she?
>>317520082
I'm just wondering why they bother with making paid DLC. Or why people bother buying it.
>>317520591
No anon. No one will get what they want.
First, he'll sacrifice his left arm for Lambda. Then, he'll sacrifice his right leg for Celica. For Noel, a lung and maybe a kidney would do. For Nu, his right arm, approximately up to two inches above the elbow. For Rachel, the liver and maybe the blood-pumping heart. By that point, he'll be dead. The remaining body parts will be divvy'd up between the remaining characters. And finally, his soul will be squeezed dry for one last sacrifice.
>>317520870
If people are willing to pay for them, then it makes sense to make these DLCs. I don't think music is that important so I don't care either way.
So who in your honest opinion is the one that will most likely end up with Ragna? Nononono not the one you want to see win the Ragnabowl, be sincere, please.
I say heends up alone
>>317521467
He either ends up with Celica or he dies a tragic death
>>317521467
Celica.
>>317521467
I genuinely believe that Nu will win and they'll merge to become Alpha.
>>317521467
He'll end up with Tsubaki.'s hat.
>>317521467
He dies.
>>317521467
Family ending like he dreams.
>>317521467The sweet embrace of death
Will Hakumen show his face to Ragna before he fades away?
Will he call Ragna "Nii-san" just one last time?
>>317522368
more important
will we see Taokaka's face?
>>317522229
No, Saya.
>>317522368
>Will he call Ragna "Nii-san" just one last time?
I really doubt he'd do something like that as he said a trillion billion times that he has abandoned his former identity. He might show his face though.
>>317521467
Ragna won't die, but I bet he will end up without an arm
and Celica will be there taking care of him doing everything
So how do you feel about CF?
Damage seems overall lower although that could be because no one has optimized everything yet. But sans like 2 characters people seem to be struggling to hit 3k.
Carl seems to have gotten better as a solo character but as a unit with Ada he seems worse. And that makes me sad.
Hakumen's current combo paths seem super awkward
Why do people keep doing OD to EA? Couldn't they get more out of an OD combo rather than 2k something that is usually blocked on reaction?
Naoto and Bullet look like they fell off hard since the loketests. Jin is looking very strong at the moment. EX fireball seems to do everything
>>317523182
There's no way Celica doesn't have a time limit or something.
Otherwise Kokonoe has the power to bring people back from the dead. That'd be ridiculous. Even for Blazblue.
>>317523731
Celica is a special case because she came into contact with the Boundary when still alive. Kokonoe used that to bring her back. She can't bring back anyone.
>>317523062
I like how everyone from Ragna family goes white
>Ragna was blonde and turned white haired
>Jin is blonde and hakumen is white haired
>Probably they sister was blonde too and Nu is white haired
>>317523692
It's better than CP since they removed SMP.
Not a fan of some bullshit they added, especially Tager's synergy with EA
Won't play anyway since Rachel is a fucking joke
>>317523937
I like how Jin's development didn't change his character. He's an asshole but nowadays he's a more noble asshole
Unpopular opinion thread:I really don't want alpha to happen.
>>317523882
Which sounds silly to me. I'm inclined to argue about how if she can just do that, a ton of people in the cast are now immune to death because they can make chronophantasmas of Roy, Ragna, Jin, any of the Murakumos, Nine, Trinity, and probably a bunch of other people I'm forgetting.
But I suppose they can always just invent more plot reasons as to why it has to be Celica and why they can never use this particular plot device again. Still think there's something deeply and cosmically stupid about being able to make permanent copies of the dead who can hang around and do stuff. It feels cheap. Like Nu wishing her self back together in CP and being kill-crazy after she sacrificed herself in CS.
Should I play Noel?
>>317524243
How do you know she's a joke? People say that she's different and they don't know how to properly use her yet. That doesn't mean she's weak.
>>317524243
The loss of pumpkin is a critical blow to Rachel since that was one of her primary pressure tools. This is actually the second time they've tried to make her into a pure zonerthe first time was CS
>>317524407
No.
>>317524573
El.
>>317524604
a shit
>>317524367
Neither do I. I mean fan art and jokes are one thing but it would be supremely stupid if it happened for real
>>317524442
Oh come on man you don't have to be fucking genius to see how weak she got. She can't keep pressure anymore, hell even her neutral stopped working
What am I going to do? Hit them with my Tsubaki-like normals?
Can't wait to she get playable
>>317524737
I think it's better to wait a few weeks before passing judgement.
>>317524778
Where are the other 62? I'm looking to stock up.
What if Naoto-Kun ends up like Azrael, Bullet, and Amane in CP and ends up barely doing anything in the actual storymode?
>>317524983
I'd be happy and say it was a good inclusion.
But we both know it's not going to go down like that.
>>317524841
N-O already passed his judgment and I trust his opinion
>>317524841
With other characters this is true, but it's too late for Rachel.
>>317525247
>>317525332
Maybe she'll get buffed up for the console release then.
>>317525389
Of course that could happen, but right now she's shit.
>>317525389
Maybe they'll make balance changes with the act 2 and 3 updates?
>>317525247
Not wanting to play highly-technical, weak characters. Please....
What are the chances of any XBLAZE character being in CF, playable or not?
We already got Nine.
>>317489357
Shouldn't Es, Touya and the rest be dead by now? It's been like 200 years, plus Black Beast.
>>317497752
we are going to get new 6 heroes, and Jin will be the leader
>>317524668
But it'd make so much sense.
I know it's late in the thread, but where my Platbros at?
>"Oh Mr. Hakumen! You were always so nice and funny!"
As soon as she said that I wanted to somehow enter the game and tear her fucking tongue out and stomp it repeatedly. Then again, Hakumen would probably slice me in two, but I would die knowing I did the world a huge favor.
>>317526275
Here.
Where's my vomitbro at?
>>317525641
Too bad, should've sticked to like any other fighterSwitching to Jack-O

>>317526395

Nigga people were pulling that shit in 1.0. It's a valid tactic, because, as you can even see in the match, you regain your burst in one round usually. That said, most people will opt to keep it to burst from really heavy dmg combos or blow people up off a really juicy hitconfirm.

There's nothing pro about ODing at round start. It's personal preference. Start the round with 4 stars and regain burst in the round or keep it to really blow someone up if they do something stupid.
>>317527239
You wouldn't believe how many people get hit by raw Zantetsu. We are mostly fishing for 5C hits to blow people up tho.
>>317498926
I know they're trying to kill different gods but I can't shake the feeling this is going to happen.
I bet Terumi's running out of time since everyone including Ragna has forgotten him and he can't grow strong without their hate.
Hell, I'm not quite too sure what they're sayinjg but it seems like he's fed up with Hazama from their battle quotes, so he's got nobody. He'll probably realize he's going to be too weak to do shit, bitch about his plans failing in the usual mental breakdown manner and pull some pseudo-heroic last battle where he reveals everything he knows about the Azure to Ragna before he croaks.
>>317527545
>it seems like he's fed up with Hazama from their battle quotes, so he's got nobody
That's because Hazama, unlike Kazuma, actually talks back at Terumi, which annoys him.
>>317527017
Don't reply.
I want to lick Platinum! Any new gameplay webms of her?
>>317497752
>Naoto is Ragna's son/father depending on the timeline
Naoto being the son makes so much sense
>>317527727
It's different from CP's at any rate, where you know they were working toward the same goal.
I bet Hazama finally graduated from being one of the two faces and is pulling his own shit. They don't seem to be connected at all anymore given Orochi Burensou uses Hazama's voice.
>>317510826
Why does Noel want to kill herself and why is Rachel dying? Lambda and Nu are pretty obvious but I'm rather surprised to see Lambda go yandere
>>317527920
There's a disturbing lack of CF Plat.

>all he got as compensation is a very slightly better version of his j214B
Even Mitsurugi has said that he thinks Hazama is shit now
>>317527950
Considering that Nine is interested in Hazama's wish, and says that it's a masterpiece, I wouldn't be surprised if he betrays Terumi for whatever his own ends are.
>>317507507
Here's the basic rundown, everything in bb's world is a story written in a book. And that author is Amaterasu. This is what Relius meant when he said that humanity was confined to Amaterasu's limits. Killing Takamagahara is one thing, that's just the computer that rewinds time and let's Amaterasu rewrite her story until she can get the ending she wants. But what happens if you kill the author of the world you're living in? Well according to Izanami everything will die and be reduced to nothing, Terumi wants to show the world the truth of despair or whatever the fuck, and Relius wanted to pick up the book and somehow use it to allow mankind to exceed all limitations because why the fuck not. Now as far as the heroes go I can't say what they gain by protecting or destroying Amaterasu. Rachel and Kokonoe both state on different occasions that despite how terrible a place it is they still overall like the world they live in. And according to Rachel even if Hades successfully destroys their world as long as Amaterasu lives the data can be saved and their world rebuilt.
>>317528001
Noel wants to disappear because of the threat she poses to the others in the current situation.
Rachel's used too much power. The more she interferes, the weaker she gets. She wants to save Ragna, but the more she tries, the closer she inches towards death. Rachel was someone who was never supposed to interfere from the start, but she's doing it way too much. She's paving the way towards her own self-destruction.
>>317528252
Hazama was always a dick. I bet he'd have no qualms about screwing Terumi over.
>>317528252
but, hey, what if
kazuma comes back ?
>>317528253
The world in BB is supposed to be dead, the only reason that it's even "alive" is because of Amaterasu rewriting and rebooting time.
So Terumi saying that the world is all lies is true, and Izanami's wish to destroy the world is just her trying to return the world to the state that it should be.
>>317528540
He'd probably fuse with Terumi, unless Mori pulls a "Kazuma loved Trinity all along!" and screws Terumi over.
>>317528312
Idiots. Whose going to save Ragna if you both die? Without those eyes and that wisdom that guy's a walking dead man. You think queen misdirection can save him?
Since the thread is full of lorefags, can someone help me with the plot?
I played the whole story of CP but I couldn't get who exactly was terumi if he wasn't hazama, and how they switch up
and how is he alive after the whole fucked up plan to kill him 'worked'
>>317528998
Relius made Hazama as a body for Terumi to inherit later. But because of some spell cast on Terumi in his previous body, he can't fuse minds with Hazama. So Hazama has his own personality. Normally they switch out just by giving each other turns with the body, it looks like. After Trinity fucked with him, he got two bodies. Somehow. Materialization rod of hers probably involved. But they were linked in some way and that's what got him 'killed' by the end of CP via Platinum's stabbing Hazama.
As for how he's alive no clue. Probably something something Azure, time fuckery, Nine's a bitch, in that order.
>>317528948
Nu will save Ragna!
>>317528998
>who exactly was terumi if he wasn't hazama
Terumi is currently a ghost/spirit, he once inhabited the Susano'o Unit, is the creator of the Azure Grimoire, worked with Relius pre-Dark War to attempt to create the first Kusanagi, and creator of both S7 and the NOL.
He has to possess bodies (Relius makes them) in order to exist in the world, otherwise his existence is unstable. That's why in CT he yells at Noel to look at him, her Observing Hazama as Yuuki Terumi allowed him to more properly fuse with his vessel.
>how they switch up
Hazama owns the body, so he's basically in charge most of the time, it's like in YGO with Yugi and Atem. Hazama is the "front" and Terumi is the "back". If Terumi wants to do something they just switch out.
>how is he alive after the whole fucked up plan to kill him 'worked'
Because you can't die in BB.
>>317529383
>because of some spell cast on Terumi in his previous body, he can't fuse minds with Hazama
To add to this, the reason he can't fuse minds properly anymore is because of the effects of Mind Eater. When Nine put the geas on him, she only specified that it would be applied to Terumi. So at the last second, Terumi unfused his and Kazuma's minds, so Kazuma himself would be unaffected by the geas and continue to carry out their plans. Because of that, Terumi can't properly fuse minds with his vessel anymore.
>>317498926
Most of them are only strong due to his actions anyway. It's unlikely to be "ONLY PRETENDING" so much as, "I turned you dumbasses into my weapons, so that I could drag that holy bitch down."
>>>317499183
>This guy single-handedly ruined Ragna's life
There's more than one signal that Ragna may be artificial, Terumi may have literally made Rags in a lab.
>>317502440

>>317530458
You mean Relius, right? Ragna and his siblings were rescued from a lab owned by Relius.
>>317530629
No I mean Terumi since he predates Relius, had the necessary knowledge, and made the Black Beast which Ragna is one component for.
Though Relius could have been involved, those two go way back.
>>317530552
You would deny the world Bullet's thighs and ass?
>>317530878
Thighs and ass are best in skintight clothing.

>>317530975
Less is more.
I fapped to the Mai/Makoto doujin again.
>>317531893
The Kanten one?
>>317531948
Of course.
>>317530861
Is Ragna a component for the Black Beast? I mean technically, but then we get into paradoxes. You need an Azure Grimoire mini-cauldron and a Murakumo unit to form a Black Beast. Terumi and Relius build the Murakumo, and Ragna has his Azure Grimoire which is a previous version of himself who became a Black Beast. If we imagine that it were somehow possible to have a Ragna without an Azure Grimoire, then Ragna would not have anything to do with the Black Beast.
Also that mini-cauldron thing hurts my brain. If the Azure Grimoire is tapping into the fundamental energy of the Boundary, and the Murakumo units fuse with that to become a horrible monster of destruction, how is that Murakumo units were designed to enter the Boundary via regular cauldrons and why didn't that completely bite humanity in the ass when they first tried it?
>>317532135
>a Murakumo unit to form a Black Beast.
No. Ragna can turn into one on his own.
>>317531948
>kanten
can't get any more off-model than that
>>317532373
I don't know if they're going to clarify interdimensional Black Beast AIDS later on in CF, but I thought he only lost control after Nu did something to him.
>>317532695
In CS he turned into a Black Beast on his own in his bad ending.
How do you guys manage to sustain a general on /v/?

I didn't know that actually. Should go back and see that ending.

Speaking of waifufaggotry, why have none of you bitches posted best girl?
>>317526763
Is it me or did they put better hitsounds over CP's awful ones? The new announcer sounds weird though.
>>317536106
You first faggot
>>317536106
But best girl has already been posted.
NO, ALPHA FAGS AND PLATINUM FAGS, GET OUT.
>>317536243
I just did, senpai.
Did somebody say Platinum?

>Cecilia Famador will never be back as BlazBlue's announcer
Man, they got it right the first time. Her and SF Alpha announcer are the best fighting game announcers ever.

There is no need to be upset over people posting the best girl.

Same way Smashfags/Tumblrfags do, by posting roughly the same shit over and over until an update on the subject comes up.
