Chaoschao222 Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 I'd laugh if the rival ended up being the one who saves the day and not the main character. That like never happens in these types of scenarios. Nu saves the day teaming up with Mu and Izayoi, Ragna's arm is used as a power source, he loses it. Saya is moefied and returns to normal, Silver Hakumen, Mechakaka, and Golden Tager appear at the end of True End in a gripping cliffhanger leaving you wanting more. BlazBlue Kart is announced the following TGS. Is how I think things could play out.... sorta.

Now I'm gonna pissed if this isn't the ending period. This is better than anything they could come up with.
NovaFortuna Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) The main aspect of Jin i can relate to is his caring side to Tsubaki. Like I mentioned before, Im a sucker for love in stories. Seeing them reminds me of me and my fiance (minus the drama). Jin really isnt that bad people. I think the problem is is that we're comparing him to alot of other characters and their actions rather than looking at him as a singular. WoF Jin gave up everything to encounter Ragna and also lost everything in the process. The current Jin is growing and already stronger than his WoF counterpart. Keyword is growing, we're watching him go through the process of whats really important to him at the end of the day. Which is Tsubaki. Not everyone will like a character but imo he's really not that bad. Not amazing, but not useless/worthless either. I also think Hakumen will pass away before the story is over as well. I honestly think the remaining Six Heroes wont make it to the end of the series tbh. Kinda agree with you, but the problem with the Tsubaki thing is that once done he once again has no porpouse aside Niisan unless something else happens. From arcade we know Tsubaki will be fine before the game ends. Tsubaki got her answers as Izayoi, she pretty much doesn't need Jin anymore to be on the good side. This wouldn't be so bad if Jin was a minor character or a supporting one, but he is promoted as a main character, yet his impact in the story is one of the lesser of the cast (and no, Hakumen doesn't count, he is a character on his own) Hakumen: It's gotta be something badass, and I highly doubt he'll beat Terumi...that seems like Ragna's job. How about a heroic sacrifice to save Tsubaki? I can see him doing that Jubei: Being a mentor, he'll probably die giving last advice to Ragna...or die along with Phantom in a "together in death" sort of thing. Pretty much what I think as well. EDIT: Cut down obnoxiously long post Edited January 13, 2013 by NovaFortuna
BlackYakuzu94 Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 Let's be entirely fair here; 1. We only have arcade shit to go on, and that's nowhere near as substantial as the console story. 2. We haven't even seen Jin's Arcade mode, or what he plans to do in it. I mean his final bosses are Tsubaki & Izayoi, but also Ragna and Hakumen I believe. I know Jin may seem static now(And for a while he was), but I think we're judging prematurely here considering we're basing all of this on small quotes and nothing more.
LionHeartx Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 How about a heroic sacrifice to save Tsubaki? I can see him doing that Nah that'd be lame. To me the "heroic sacrifice" usually end up boring and anti-climatic as hell unless the person sacrifices themselves to save the person who kills the big bad in the end. Highly doubt Tsubaki is gonna be the one to kill Terumi/Relius/Saya/Gold Tager. I mean it would make sense if he did give his life for Tsubaki but I'd rather seem him not go out like a bitch >.>
Starlight777 Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 I don't see why Platinum would die in the story. Luna and Sena, that is, Trinity's soul finally passing away would be given if the Six Heroes would go down. Wasn't it mentioned somewhere that Trinity's existence is slowly fading away anyhow? Trinity just passing away for good does seem like a pretty likely conclusion for Platinum's story.
Guymam Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 You guys think Hazama is going to die? How will it feel when it's revealed He's been the good guy this whole time, having to resort to being evil to right the world and set it on the correct path without time loops, takemagahara, etc. he resorted to being a dick to achieve this because everyone is either useless or has their head so far up their own ass that they are pretty much useless. prove me wrong nerds
harmless kitten Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 I love nobody likes Jin, period. I like him, but I know better than to suck up 16 pages of the thread with arguments about Jin's morality/character development. Although I do stare blankly at Jin being a "static character." Or Jin having to be relatable in order to be likable.
Rishtopher Posted January 13, 2013 Posted January 13, 2013 snip That would be boring because Itachi did it first. :|

mAc Chaos Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 The game's actually hinted at that for Terumi before. Remember the quote for his level is "The devil is not as black as he is painted," and then there's the stuff about the true dead form of the world he showed Noel.
Putin Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 Yeah, that's actually possible, since I've always wondered why the "good guys" go against Terumi's gang; all they want is for the world to continue its natural cycle, without loops -which also make beings like Rachel suffer-, and meet its inevitable demise. Sure, their ways are not "correct", but their goal seems fair and there's probably no other way to achieve it. I imagine Terumi near the end of the story, beaten down, explaining in a desperate, yet at the same time Hazama-ish way, how he just wanted all of this endless suffering to end. I guess he could just kill himself (?), but the idea sounds cool.
Agni Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 The main problem I see with Jin is that Mori has committed a classic mistake with him: too much specialization. Jin is basically nothing without Ragna, Noel, or Tsubaki to motivate him. Take away his obsession with those three and he doesn't really have enough of an established character to really do anything with him. Some of the other characters suffer from this (like Litchi or Nu) but most aren't as bad in that respect. On the contrast, take someone like...Makoto for instance. Makoto is quite invested in her friends (Noel and Tsubaki), but she's still got other stuff like her involvement with Sector 7 and her beastman history so she isn't entirely motivation-less without Noel or Tsubaki. ...Did we already stopped talking about Jin?
Icefang Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 The real ending would be Ragna dreaming in a drug-induced coma in Litchi's clinic for the last six months.

I guess he could just kill himself (?), but the idea sounds cool.An asteroid smashing the Earth would be natural too, so it's not necessarily better that it's just a natural thing. They're attached to the world they're living in, not what might be remade after whatever shenanigans get pulled. Plus Terumi isn't exactly someone you can put any faith in. I wonder what that whole "devil is not so back as he is painted" quote was about.
redsilversnake Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 I wonder what that whole "devil is not so back as he is painted" quote was about. Mori thought it sounded cool.
Ctrlaltwtf Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 I wonder what that whole "devil is not so back as he is painted" quote was about. I've always thought Bang's should have been: "A fool knows no fear. A hero shows no fear."
Surf Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 Yea i agree we've discussed Jin as a character for far too too long. The the about Terumi and the gang is they are right in thwir cause. But they go about it the complete wrong way. Im interested in that black as he is painted quote as well. Ive thought about Terumi secretly being benevelont. But that idea didnt last night. Hes the prime example o Trig a megalomaniac, like I-No. Their crazy as shit, just because, it seems. They havnt gone into Terumi complete background so who knows if something did indeed happen to him. But as of right now i believe hes just insane and nothing else.
Tong Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 So, is Azrael a member or experiment from Sector Seven? Gotta wonder how a muscle-head like him could develop an advanced limiter like Enchant Dragunov. And also, how did he get so strong prior the limiter.
Starlight777 Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 I wonder what Azrael did to have Sector Seven imprison him in the first place. There had to be some sort of body count.
Master Of Chaos Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 I wonder what Azrael did to have Sector Seven imprison him in the first place. There had to be some sort of body count. Maybe he had something to do with the incident involving the slaughter of Bullet's mercenary group?
LionHeartx Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 He probably just Gomikuzu'd the wrong person...
Ctrlaltwtf Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 Changing the subject to Relius, I currently give him a 15% chance of pulling a Darth Vader. And a 100% chance of telling Carl to give in to his hate and kill him, thus proving himself as worthy of the Clover name. (he says something to Carl very similar to this in Arcade mode)
BlackYakuzu94 Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 I love how Relius seems to not give a shit about Carl, or what he's done; his reaction to seeing him is more or less "Oh, it's you" in the most bored tone ever. He's even more of a sociopath than Hazama, at least he reacts to the shit he does.
