Starlight777 Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 So Izayoi is a mode change character whose change alters her movement and specials? She sounds like she can annoy people in the same fashion Aigis does.
Isuna Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Famitsu, apparently. Though, don't try to pick it up today, the issue releases tomorrow. Ah, I see. I'm quite busy tomorrow, so I'm not sure if I can get it then either.
Juunee Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Speaking of damage, I wonder what Azrael's average damage output will be like in the corner once they figure him out. Causes death to character on hit with meter, inflicts sadness on opposing player.
Starlight777 Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 So Izayoi's Drive, OD and a DD all have the word justice in their name. Anymore justice and she'll be as cheesy as Hakumen.
syzm Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 So Izayoi is a mode change character whose change alters her movement and specials? She sounds like she can annoy people in the same fashion Aigis does. It sounds like she has to actually build her meter through damage instead of just zoning and waiting for it to fill up, though. Given that the meter for it looks exactly like Hakumen's I'm assuming it'll generate similarly. And the fact that Tsubaki is a Hakumen fangirl, which drove her to copy one of his game mechanics.

Takoto Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Loving Izayoi!Tsubaki's outfit. And how NOT SKIMPY IT IS IN COMPARISON WITH THE OTHER GIRLS omg I'm so butthurt about skimply women in blazblue But seriously she looks badass, and when I first saw her the first thing I thought was "Is she like a faux-Murakumo or something?"
Star-Demon Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) I think she probably is. It's possible that, if we're to believe MU is coming back - that everyone's going to be pulling someone out of somewhere. ILLUSION OF TIME. LOL. Or, perhaps the mind-rape Tsubaki underwent somehow leads her story into having the Izayoi to take her over (it IS a nox.) in b4 Litchi was right about Tsubaki. Also - I think I might like the Negative penalty change. Jesus so much info coming out. No time for all of it! Edited November 14, 2012 by Star-Demon
Narroo Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) I always liked Tsubaki and her prude outfit too. I just never had the patience to play her seriously. I'm gonna see if her "true form" changes that lol. Still mad those people were right though. Oh come on: Noel's profile they posted SAID that Tsubaki was possessed by the Izayoi. I saw this coming a mile away, even without the trailer; it was pretty much confirmed with the Nu/Mu descriptions. That said, I wasn't expecting it to look like a Murakumo. That WAS surprising. EDIT: Anyone else thing that Izayoi looks a bit like battle mode Lenneth from Valkyrie Profile? Oh dear, we need a lenneth palate. Edited November 14, 2012 by Narroo
Mumm-Ra Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) I pretty sure bugs still consume metre during OD. Also, I thought Arakunes OD last quite short in comparison to Ragna. Maybe I'm just wrong. This loketest some guy said that if you get curse during OD the meter is frozen, but if you start OD during curse the meter keeps depleting, yet curse won't end if OD doesn't end. So OD can be used to extend curse a little bit if you use it post-curse, or that's what I understood, there's this one guy in one of the videos that activates OD just before curse runs out so I might be right. No idea about the lenght issue, I thought it was HP dependant? Since Ragna has less HP than Arakune, his OD should last longer when on low health I guess. Edited November 14, 2012 by Mumm-Ra
Cryingvoid Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 I saw this coming a mile away, even without the trailer WOOW! YOU"RE SOOO AWESOME! Just how much more amazing can you get?

SoWL Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Here, have some HQ Izayoi screens from famitsu: http://www.famitsu.com/news/201211/15024349.html Too bad that there's no text at all for now.
Airk Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 She looks even cooler in sprite form than in concept art. And more actually dressed.
Rishtopher Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 It sounds like she has to actually build her meter through damage instead of just zoning and waiting for it to fill up, though. Given that the meter for it looks exactly like Hakumen's I'm assuming it'll generate similarly. Reminds me of Labrys with her axe meter, only it actually changes the way she plays once it's built up. After it's built up and/or activated, does it drain gradually, or after she uses specials like Hakumen? Really hope she's fun, I don't think I've wanted to play so many characters in BB before.
Darlos9D Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 She looks even cooler in sprite form than in concept art. And more actually dressed. At least somebody in this game is keeping it classy.
Rishtopher Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 And "Freedom Justice" is the name of her OD, which seems to improve the zoning game of her normal mode. Wait, is she a zoner? She was just announced right? Is there any indication as to how she would play?
YoYoCheese Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 (edited) Wait, is she a zoner? She was just announced right? Is there any indication as to how she would play? She's a form change character ala P4U's Aigis. From what I understand, her base form is a zoner who's goal is to build up her special gauge. Her alternate form is a high mobility rushdown character who, sort-of like Hakumen, must use up her special meter for her special moves. Edited November 14, 2012 by YoYoCheese

Do you happen to know the answer to my meter question from before? Does it drain like Hakumen's meter (on special activation), or is like like Orgia mode?

If I had to guess, I would say that it works like Hakumen: special attacks cost one or more orbs depending on the move, but that's really just speculation on my part.
TPPR10 Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 The fist picture... I am guessing that that's either her taunt, way to change modes or she got some Mighty Speech action.

Hecatom Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 For the screenshots it seems that she could have a dash like I-no/Morrigan
