Blazblue: Short Stories and Novel Discussion

[WolfCrimson]

Body swap most likely.

[mAc Chaos]

Random, but story related. I wonder how Hakumen's drives are supposed to work in the story.

[zephyr07]

coming out of bb retirement just to say this story blows my mind

and not in a good way

. At least it's monthly so I can take it in small doses. Don't know how much more traps I can take.

let alone traps without any functional MALE genitalia. *shudder*

I thought Bridget was bad enough, but Mai takes the cake.:psyduck:

although page 7 makes me almost want to forgive mori. Almost.

[Takoto]

I didn't really care about this until I heard Mai was transgender. I doubt it's a "body swap" and BlazBlue are probably trying to incorporate an ACTUAL LGBTU character into the story. Which I think is good. However they could... handle this badly and make it offensive... transgender stuff is a delicate topic. But I'll definitely keep up with released stuff about this now.

I mean I was KINDA interested when I heard it was drawn by Sumeragi/Sume who is one of my favourite artists but the story seemed meh so I was going to read it after a long while of it coming out buuut yeah.

Can't wait for Jin to appear in this. =|

Mai x Jin plz.

It's kinda like Dizzy x Ky. Except not.

[Circuitous]

I'm guessing it's another spirit like Terumi, this time in a "female" body. Also? Balls-out retarded.

I doubt so. It's more likely body swapping shenanigans, or spirit posession.

Mai x Jin is basically Ky x Necro. Search your heart, you know it to be true.

[Agni]

AFAIK, westerners generally tend not to care about supplementary material, so most localization companies usually ignore stuff like novels and information books.

We tend to not care because we never GET the supplementary material.

I bet Relius is involved with this. He better be.

[zephyr07]

of course relius is involved. mai is actually kazuma. put in a girl's body by relius. after going through that traumatic experience of being groped by makoto, this will explain why current hazama hates her so much. Plus we know that there's only 1 character in game that likes Noel's cooking.

therefore, mai= kazuma. qed.

So Mai is a dude? I'm so thrown off by this.

Mai for BB3. I'm serious.

quitting all bb plot.

I'll tell you what I really think about it on twitter

[TD]

hazama was groped by makoto wat. if he 'didnt like it' why wouldn't he just kill her right then and there XD

[Ryudrake]

I was waiting for something like that. On the bright side it's not part of the main series...hopefully.

Crossing my fingers as hard as I can that that is the case

Mm, now I've looked at it more, it doesn't look like Mai is actually transgender U _U Oooooh well. Though I still doubt it's a body swap, seems more like Spirit Possession of possibly a man-made body, as said previously. Humans can sometimes be born with breasts and no vagina though, so it's not entirely impossible that Mai was just "born like it" or something- though with everything said, the fact she "acts like a man" and all, I think it's spirit possession, but a very ditzy spirit who can't act feminine.

Also, Mai likes Noel's cooking. Who else likes her cooking? Hazama, who is also a spirit. Spirits like terrible food, speculation conclusion!! (I'm not being serious here okay)

[mAc Chaos]

hazama secretly every character

the entire game's just been him trolling the player

[WolfCrimson]

I have a question: Kazuma's body contains Yuuki Terumi the spirit, correct? Where did Kazuma's spirit go? Into Mai?

[Starlight777]

If that's the case then getting a playable Kazuma in BB3 would=Mai? Oh Mori you devil.

[Michi]

OH GOD YES

I have a question: Kazuma's body contains Yuuki Terumi the spirit, correct? Where did Kazuma's spirit go? Into Mai?

MAYBE. But myeah you can say Kazuma's dead. :v Terumi devoured him pretty erotically hard. But oh god, I just started some Kazuma -> Mai madness. What have I done.

Still crossing my fingers that Jin would really appear as a character in remix heart rather than just a cameo. :>

[kylehyde]

Everytime a new story comes out and it's setting is in the NOL academy days I get a little depressed because I know it ain't going to have Ragna in it T_T.

[mAc Chaos]

I forget, if Ragna overloads his use of the Azure Grimoire, does he just turn into a burnt out husk of seither, or does he turn into the Black Beast anyway, or something in between?

[Vulcan422]

According to CS Story Mode he becomes a Black Beast-like creature.

[mAc Chaos]

Is it possible for him to become an incomplete Black Beast?

Like, Nu apparently became the original one, before Bloodedge got absorbed into her. So that means the Black Beast didn't even really need Ragna. Maybe it works the same the other way around.
