I was just playing arcade mode in CF with Amane and realized something about his name. It's literally pronounce "A man ne", as in "a man" and the "ne" (isn't it? In Japanese). So Amane's name sounds like "It's a man, isn't it?" I wonder if that was on purpose.

Help with picking a main

Hey! I recently started getting a lot more into fighting games, and I got Blazblue Centralfiction on sale and I'm loving it! But I'm a bit overwhelmed by how many characters there are, and coming from mostly Netherrealm fighters (Although I've played quite a bit of Street Fighter long ago), I'm struggling to find a character that's similar to the ones I like! I main Jax in all the MKs, and so far the one that has felt the best for me was Bullet! Any tips for other similar characters, or any tips from any Bullet mains?

I can't believe BB ended without us ever knowing Taokaka's true face

This bothers me so much. Why can't we get a glimpse of her actual face?

My eyes can't track Valkenhayn

Nor my hands neither. I was trying to pull out his combos, and it was so far easy until he starts transforming and detransforming with very tight timings at supersonic speed. How is anyone even capable of playing this guy without some short of ninja training?

What's the deal with Platinum The Trinity?

I know that Trinity Glassfille was one of the six heroes (for some reason she's the only one that wasn't on record and was unknown) who helped defeat the Black Beast in the Dark War back in 2100s AD. After the war, because she was in love with Kazuma Kuvaru, she undid the mind eater spell that Nine cast on Yuuki Terumi. When he got free, he threw Nine to the boundary and killed Trinity. Before he killed her, she transfered her own soul into her Nox Nyctores. A hundred years went by, and Jubei has taken in two children inhabiting one body, Luna and Sena. These children found the Nox Nyctores and Trinity inside of it asked them to wield it/her so she could be taken to places to assist the heroes undo Terumi's plans. When the children weild the weapon a third soul (Trinity's) became a part of them and from then on they called themselves Platinum The Trinity.

What I don't get is, how on earth do Luna and Sena share a body? Did Jubei found these children as separate or already as one body? Why don't they each have a body of their own and have to share a body? No matter where you look, it seems Mori never revealed why they're like this, or did he?

Got something to say about the announcer voices

Let's face it (save for the character announcer voices as they're intentionally meant to be funny) all the announcer voices are hot garbage. I can't see why anyone would unironically like them. They sound so cringe, like they just got somebody from the streets. Ultra Street Fighter IV (Jamieson Price) and Dragon Ball FighterZ (Justin Briner) announcer voices just blow them away so hard it's not even funny.

If you're curious who the voices are

  • Cecilia Famador (CT)
  • Dale Paris Sanchez (CS-CSII)
  • Sachiko Hara (TAG)
  • Julia Yermakov (CP)
  • Rumiko Varnes (CF)

We don't know who did Continuum Shift Extend as the credits don't list her but it's likely Sachiko Hara as the CSEX and TAG announcer voices sound similar.

Save for the last two (maybe 3), all the announcers pretty much only appeared in those respective games and nothing more, like ArcSys pulled random people off the streets. If ArcSys ever does another BlazBlue fighting game please get an actual VA and not some rando in Japan. FighterZ did that, USFIV did that, Granblue Fantasy Versus series did that.

Screen freezes while game is still running

Hello, I just bought Blazblue Centralfiction but when I launch the game the screen just becomes black while the game is still running. Everytime I tab out to tab in it just shows a frame of the game. So the game is running while the screen is frozen which hints me that it might be a monitor problem. Any advices would be greatly appreciated.

Just got the game say something that doesn't make sense to me

I try to do this with a lot of new games I get because I will never be new to them again. Tell me something that doesn't make any sense to me and I will try to guess what it means.

Problems with Tsubaki's combos

Hello again, it's me, the combo noob dude. Usually I try everything that comes to mind in order to get the combo challanges like alter the timing of the previous hits, microdashing, etc. But this time I'm out of ideas.

1.-The problem is with Tsubaki's hard combo challenges #7 & #10, cancelling j236A with jD in order to follow with a jB. I get the timing is pretty night, but is there any trick? I hold jD after the special to help with the timing, but it's still hard. Still I can pull it out 1 every 10 times, so it's not that big issue.

2.-The big deal is jC after jBB - jc. It just doesn't land, jC has like a very downward hitbox and just doesn't reach the target, which is usally a bit higher. I feel like Tsubaki should be higher to get the hit but I'm already high jumping. Maybe holding jD too much leaves me closer to the ground?

I'm asking because Tsubaki has really nice and easy inputs but contrary to everything else, I can't manage to pull these 2 out.

What if the Izayoi was a sentient weapon?

I know that the Izayoi is a prototype to Murakumo Units, but seeing as how it has a Sealed form and a released form, I couldn't help but think of it as a Zanpakuto from Bleach. And then I asked myself, "What if the Izayoi had a Zanpakuto spirit like in Bleach"? So now I wanted to know your opinions. What if the Izayoi was sentient, and whenever Tsubaki used its released form it took control over her body? What would its personality be? And how do you think it would act?

I just discovered Blazblue. And going down the rabbit hole that is the story. I know, I'm late I know. The story is really hard to understand and there are bits and pieces that outright don't make sense. So, I have a question about the original world.

So, in the original world, Susano'o gain sentience and got a will of its own. He got fed up to be a slave of Amaterasu and separated himself from the Susano'o unit. That vacant space got noticed by humanity and that's how the world came to know the boundary. Supposedly humans cannot go to the boundary, as they could die, so if humans were only able to look at the boundary and the Master Unit from afar how did they determine what it was? How did they come to know that Amaterasu was the being that created the world and can shape reality to her liking? How did they discover the Azure? How did they know what seithr was? How did they know that the Master Unit could only respond to humans? Which is something that led them to develop prime field devices. I don't know. πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. Then, humanity was able to create the Takamagahara System, three computer AIs that for some reason have the same power of the Master Unit but it's limited (how were humans able to create such a thing?) Then, they sent Prime Field Devices to the boundary to explore it, the units and the azure (and they had to send several?). The original prime field device made contact with Amaterasu and the original developed a soul (just because πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ) which caused all other prime field devices to develop souls as well (just because πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ). They wanted to be just like humans and cohabitate with them only for the humans to fear them and try to destroy them, due to fear that yet other unknown beings are reshaping their reality to their liking, and humans wanted total control from the get-go. Humanity declares war on the prime field devices but their too powerful and the Original with Amaterasu can just observe other possibilities and reshape reality to the prime field devices' advantage. Clavis Alucard (a vampire) suggests to develop the Izayoi to cloud the Original from seeing what was happening so that she could no longer observe. And they develop the Izayoi how exactly? πŸ€” Anyway, humanity still couldn't best the prime field devices and so they created the Black Beast (How did they create it? Out of thin air? πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ). The Black Beast proceeded to destroy the world, and the Master Unit created an embryo (just because) to create the "fictional" world of Blazblue as a copy of the original world, but Amaterasu based her creation around Ragna so that he could save her one day.

This is how I understand the origin of Blazblue. And then you have the Manga of Naoto that is an alternate world (which I have no idea what is about) and the world of ES from the visual novels (yet another alternate reality that I have no idea of) and both these world coalesce with the world of Blazblue and affects it somehow. Anyway. These are my questions. Thanks for reading.
