I played the games and delved into the story by reading its wiki yet I still find this anime confusing. I can only imagine the suffering that new fans who watch this anime must be going through.. I'm not surprised if they drop this very quickly, such a shame.

Meh episode. At least we see Ragna's flashback and learn something about his past.
So, the green-hair guy is the main villain?

for the most part yah, him relius and one other character that shall not be named are the main villains, though judging from how horrible this anime has done at explaining shit id not be surprised if the other villain even shows up

Will Relius Clover ever show up in this!?
P.S. if this happens, then it's most likely that he'll be voiced by the same voice actors who also voiced Theo from P3P, imo anyway....

Relius has shown up in this episode, he even talked with Hazama using a phone.

melina-san, if what you said is true, then check Relius' entry via BlazBlue wiki to find out what I said regarding that is true....

here comes Continuum Shift i guess

Taokaka is awesome as always, her and Boobie Lady are best together! :P now where's Bang to stalk Boobie Lady?

i like that the themes (Rachel, Hazama vs Ragna, and Calamity Trigger at the end) werent remixed.

Makoto cameo...

Hazama/Terumi devour the eggs whole is...alluring. love that guy

only bad spot is that my hatred for Carl has boiled very high with his appearance.

yea, i enjoyed this more than the first two

Are you colourblind? Ragna's hair wasn't white, it was blonde. That scene was actually well done imo.

yah....right...blonde, I mean aside from the hair mess up the flashback was actually pretty well adapted. hell even the animation was pretty good

He was clearly only supposed to be white/grey in that scene, you can't even tell his eye color. At the fire his hair was blonde; http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h6/ServentArcher/ddd.jpg

his hair shouldnt be white anywhere in the past, the anime hadnt explained this yet and probably never will but

They just fucked up in that flashback scene,

As far as I know they retconned that

Also in case someone is interested, HUGE BlazBlue Chronophantasma SPOILERS

- Tenjou used to be the ruler of the NOL but Hazama and Relius overthrowed him and put Saya in power instead. The war of Ikaruga was his attempt to recover his rule over the NOL.
- Kagura is a NOL general who is doing a coup d´etat to overthrow Saya and put Tenjous son as the ruler of the NOL. Kagura mangages to put most of the good guys under his command
- Bloodedge is Ragna from BlazBlue Chronophantasma, as far I understood from the spoilers on the internet, he never sacrificed himself, since the Black Beast is a cauldron he used it to go back to the future with Noels help.
- Saya is currently being possesed by Izanami who is supposed to be an inmortal being that is literally death incarnate.
-Hakumen is the one who kills Hazama
-Nu synchronizes (or something like that) with Noel so she can "pirate" her characteristics. Once she has done that she is capable of opening the Nemisis Horizon, from what I understand this is a gate leads to the Master Unit Amaterasu.
- Saya forces Take Mikazuchi to land on the planet, since the world is filled with seither she can use it as many times as she wants. Nu fuses with Take-Mikazuchi
- Saya shoots Take-Mikazuchi against the Master Unit but Rachel protects it with Tsukoyomi.
- The Final Boss fight is Unlimited Ragna vs Take-Mikazuchi. Ragna activates his BlazBlue and defeats Take-Mikazuchi. Ragna enters its core and saves Nu.
- The Blazblues Ragna and Hazama own are inmitations, Saya uses all the sins of the world (lol Fate stay night rip off right here) to create the Embryo, this Embryo thing is a key part to create the True BlazBlue
- The game ends with a huge cliffhanger, Saya appears, Ragna attacks her but is backstabbed by Nu. Saya says the words "awaken beast" and Ragnas azure grimoire/Blazblue suddendly goes berserk, his right arm turns into a claw and several black beast heads grow from his back, Jin and Noel in her Mu-12 form team up to try to stop him but the berserk Ragna unwillingly beats the shit out of both and mysteriously dissapears. After that Tsubaki visits an injured Jin and Noel. She finds Rachel on the way, she tells her that Ragna will soon die but either Tsubaki or Jin must kill him before he dies, if they fail to do that Rachel asks Tsubaki to kill her. Rachel tells Tsubaki that there is an evil entity inside Ragna so powerful that it could destroy the entire world, this evil entity is currently consuming Ragna and it will end up killing him completly (I guess Rachel wants to kill Ragna before "this powerful evil entity" completly takes over Ragna).
- At the very end Ragnas and Nus crests appear with some japanese engrish saying "End there is the beginning. I have enclosed a contradiction of all. I beginning all. I will destroy everything. Is "Blue" I am. THE BLAZBLUE."

EDIT: I just noticed that spoiler number 10 was not completely accurate so I corrected it

Never played the game.
Got confused with the plot.
The battle time make sense if you were playing a fighting game, but weird when in anime.
Those kittens were cute when running outside.
good for me that I don't know too much about the game, otherwise I would be upset with the anime, but still not very good as a show; felt like many things were reused from the game.

you just provided even more proof of how bad this series is, you had to look up on your on free time a description of a MAIN CHARACTER to even remotely understand what the hell was going on with her or her relationship with ragna.

This anime is a fucking joke

Yes. As an anime watcher only, I have no idea what just happened. From what I can tell, Noel is some kind of vessel to a power and by looking at Hazama, it woke up some sort of other personality inside him. Noel isn't even doing anything to stop Hazama. I wonder what she would do.

Judging from what the others say, they pretty much wrapped up one game in 3 episodes lol.

2 episodes actually, only about 2 to 3 minutes of ep 3 was from the first game, the rest was for the second game, i should mention the first game is by no means a short game, its like 8-10 hours....condensded into 40 minutes skipping roughly 95% of the game

The flashback made me close my eyes, that was way too gory than I could handle. Didn't feel as rushed as the two first episodes and it had some funny parts. This could be the start of something new.

EDIT: I will probably remember that egg scene for the rest of my life.

Narrative that while filling the vision of topics which in part explains, however, leaves the viewer quite thrilled about the true plot. Do not connoisseur of the game this is the feeling I get, then it may be that those who have played does not see it like that, points of view! ^ ^ "
Narration who sins also during the presentation of the new characters, who are they what do they want? Good questions! XD
Technically, then is made even worse, both as animations as drawings. The Hood E. and TeamKG, I do not han met, even at the brackets ecchi that glitters is not really their job! Drawings with ups and downs, more bass and treble. Too bad it seems to have a lot of potential, but here it is working really bad!
In the throes of an outburst of joy for having revised Tao, do one more point! XD

Alright. I guess that was a monster. That appears every 4 years... we're not going to see it again. Also I think it won't be explained in the anime. Oh well. I can't tell if Alucard(that vampire girl) is good or not.
