Oriole Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Oh I see Tsubaki's summary is on jbbs somewhere. Her fights are Carl, Hibiki, Hazama, and Jin. Anything noteworthy there? Seems it's simply her defending Noel if my understanding is correct.
JustaMaskedFreak Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I read many things and my god! This is becoming way interesting!
Toxin45 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 So Azrael wants to know about the master unit. Only terumi seems to know who
Mirage of Void Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I am not really caught up in the story at the moment or anything new, but during Naoto's arcade mode, somebody tells Naoto not to "touch" the azure, then izanami asks who that person is and why she's interfering with the embryo- and boom, it resets and cuts to Es for a split second. So does that mean Es is intervening with the embryo, or?
Luminos564 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 OK so we've got Ragna being resolute and that's all kinds of awesomesauce. I must admit, reading that he jumped in to protect Mu-12 against Nu-13 brought a small smile to my face. And all so that he can save the both of them (please include Lamb-chops in this plan too). I just hope this plan of his, as indicated by his speech to Amane, doesn't amount to another "Zero Requiem". That little scenario has been done before and it's not even that good a plan to begin with. For the unawares, here's how it boils down: -Protagonist attains suitable amount of power. -Said protagonist begins making himself be the "villain" in the eyes of others. -Protagonist declares himself the enemy to everyone in the known world. -Everyone in the world is united by having a common foe to fight against. -Protagonist fights the person he has deemed to be the "Hero" for the scenario (in this case that'd probably be Jin). -Protagonist dies in the fight, his name dragged through the mud for the rest of history while the world moves on in supposed unity. With that out of the way, has there been any summaries for either Noel or Mu-12? Given how much focus has been placed on them again, one would think they'd be one of first ones to be spoiled. Then again, we are not even 24 hours into Act III so I'll try to contain my hype/confusion (blame Mori).
Toxin45 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 1 hour ago, MaximusMurkimus said: I think Relius meant she was human in terms of her physical limits, regardless of how she was created. So in other words, just repeating what Terumi said to her in CP. That being said, is he really Observing her or did he mean that in a more literal sense? Both probably.
MaximusMurkimus Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I thought about the Zero Requiem deal too, but I don't think Mori's going for that, seeing as how Ragna already is public enemy #1 for the entire series and is actually trying to make the best out of it this time.
Zedar90 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Noel 3 Litchi 6 Nu 7 Amane 8 Terumi Noel feels that what she is looking for isn't close, and that she must find it fast. And Litchi attacks Noel. Litchi says that she will get rid of Noel, so that she can use the azure to reconstruct the world so no one will be sad. Noel fights back saying that she can't understand Litchi feelings. And that she must find something even though it's scary. After the battle, Litchi asks if she can't save Roy, and she also said that if Noel didn't exist she could change the world. Noel apologize and leaves, and as she leaves she hears Terumi's voice saying that she will taste despair again. Nu attacks Noel out of the blue, and senses Bolverk from Noel. Noel asks if Nu is here to kill her, so that Nu will obtain the world. Nu says that she only wants the nox. To collect the nox and become one with Ragna. And for that reason, Noel is in the way so she should die. Noel says that Nu face is that same as her own, it like it was that child. After the battle, Nu asks where Noel is, and Noel is surprised that Nu can't see her. Noel wonders if Nu could have been like a normal girl if she had lived like Noel had. But the Noel wonders why she thought so, no matter how similar they are, they are different people, right? Amane asks Noel if she is looking for something, and Noel asks Amane if they have met before. Amane says they might have met before, or they might not had. Noel then asks Amane if he have seen someone looking exactly like herself. Amane asks Noel why is she looking for her. Noel says she doesn't know, only that she must find her. Amane then says that the scary girl from before looked like Noel, and Noel asked if Amane had been watching that. Amane said he was sorry about that, and that he was not going to interfere with the world. So if Noel wanted to hear something from him, she had to do it by force. After the battle, Amane said he knew where she is, but it's a dangerous place, and he asks Noel if she really wants to know. Noel says yes, and after that Amane asks Noel if she had ever thought of why she cut “her” off. Noel: (A little... I feel like I've remembered a little... That's right. I “cut that child off”... But why? Why did I cut her off? It was supposed yo be... something important.) Terumi: Hey... “Successor of the Azure”. To meet you here. No, this is the right place, huh. Noel: …!? W, who are... you? Terumi: Ah, that's right. You've forgotten me... No, You cut me off in the memories as well? How convenient. Noel: Cut off... you too? Terumi: Then I'm “here”, in “reality”. And, I have something to ask of you. “What” did you see inside the Black Beast? Noel: Black... Beast? …!? Terumi: That's right, you saw didn't you? You should have! When you got swallowed down by the berserk going Ragna the Bloodedge, you should have recognized it! Noel: Ah.... no... no... I... Terumi: Pull out that memory!! recollection inside the black beast? Mu shaped Noel. That is... what is there is... ah, so that is. I... I.. saw it. At that time, inside the darkness, inside the Black Beast... (Black Beast? What am I saying? But I can't stop... it's overflowing... this is, memory?) I saw it, with these “eyes”. That is... a “gate”... That right, that's why I cut her off... To forget everything... To protect “that person”. No... I mustn't remember! I must forget... At that time, what I “recognized”... that child also, I forgot for that reason...! Terumi: Remember! Take it back, “Noel Vermillion”! That thing inside the black beast! Accept it, Recognize it! perceive everything! And... Merge “god slayer”. Act as the “key” and open the “gate”! Noel: ! No! That gate mustn't be opened!! I will not merge with that child. I will not take back the power of god slaying. “Yuuki Terumi”! I will not give you anything! Absolutely!
FKGunBlaze Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Noel renounced to her powers (and by extension, Mu-12) to protect us ;_;
Toxin45 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I wonder what Mu-12 arcade is? You misspelled Amane

Thanks a bunch. 6 minutes ago, GunBlazer said: Noel renounced to her powers (and by extension, Mu-12) to protect us ;_; Looks like it. Or at least protect Ragna (I don't think she ever refers to anyone as "that person" other than him). Seems like the titular "Central Fiction" might actually pertain to that scary-looking gate with the Black Beast's emblem. But, Noel was "devoured" by Black Beast Ragna? Back in CP Finale? That's the only canon time Ragna went berserk unless suddenly his Bad Ending in CT is now simultaneously canon as well. Curiously, it seems like opening the gate begins a merger between Noel and one other being. Your guess is as good as mine as to who that is though.
JustaMaskedFreak Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Amane is becoming way more interesting in this act and for the whole story in the game. Hmmm... I wonder what other secrets he will tell us...

Toxin45 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Also Act III from tumblr has Hazama and Terumi quotes against each other Terumi: Sorry Hazama-chan I am done with you. I already deicided on my new vessel Hazama:My, you're no longer interested in the vessel.Well I'll take it then. As someone on tumblr said It's a little weird to hear them act unfriendly towards each other.

Though the gal within the Amaterasu is positioned in the "crucified" position so there is that. But this is all spiraling out of control. The world is in total chaos and everyone is gunning for each other's throats and ironically, the man called the Grim Reaper is the only one saying "This shit is dumb. You're all dumb".
Toxin45 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I think Terumi wanted to use Noel to open the master unit with the girl inside is.

Curiously, it seems like opening the gate begins a merger between Noel and one other being. Your guess is as good as mine as to who that is though. Has to be CP. It shows "Mu shaped Noel" and Mu fought berserk Ragna in Godslayer mode during CP's True Ending. Something interesting about that "gate" and Es. In XBlaze Lost: Memories Hinata had a dream about her past. In the dream the girl who was kidnapped at a young age by scientists (her) was told to stand in front of a gate and try to talk to a girl on the other side to convince her to open the gate. No matter what Hinata did the girl never responded. I initially believed this was just how Hinata processed the experiments to open the Gate to the Boundary with the Embryo but perhaps there is something more to it and that is the gate Es is protecting.
MaximusMurkimus Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Hmm, no bombshells like in Act 2 just yet. I'm gonna need several tubs of popcorn while doing the console story mode, for sure.

Wait, if she was "devoured" by him, how'd she get out since we know Celica was treating her after the fight? Then again, perhaps by rejecting her powers she was catapulted out of there. The Black Beast is a walking, rampaging Cauldron after all and we do know they're used for all sorts of shenanigans in BB. 11 minutes ago, Ogiga99 said: Something interesting about that "gate" and Es.

Possibly. It could be that opening said gate leads to catastrophic results though what that means isn't explained yet. The funny thing with gates in any form of fiction though, is that most of the time, they will be opened. 8 minutes ago, MaximusMurkimus said: Hmm, no bombshells like in Act 2 just yet. What, the "Blazblue is the past to Bloodedge experience" not a big enough kaboom for ya ? We've yet to see the rest of the cast's arcade runs too. So let it slowly build up.

Either way, it would explain a lot, so not really the bombshell I had in mind. And IIRC BEE didn't state anywhere if it took place before or after BlazBlue, if anything it existing might mean that there is yet to be a relatively positive ending in store.

So before Bloodedge Experience could occur the event of CF would probably have already happen. Yay! Time travel.

MaximusMurkimus Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 Oh god, time travel within time travel. At this rate the universe is gonna be devoured by a black hole due to being unable to handle all of these time distortions. Either way, the fact that Valk and Relius are present in both means that they at least know something that they're not telling anyone right now.
