~Avant~ Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 But was it confirmed or ever stated that they were traveling together?
Lou_Cypher Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Not to sound like the ignorant one, but when or where was it confirmed that Baiken and Anji were traveling together? They seem to have opposing goals so that wouldn't make much sense Not confirmed, just me impying it since she never got to kill I-No. And Anji already found That Man anyways. Also, we know that Chipp and Potemkin are working together given by the events of the novel where Chipp's guarding the president. What chains would that link though?
Jam-Kiske Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Well Eddie is dead for sure I'd say. Millia is not as completely obvious but it seems likely considering the path she was going. Sol and Ky HAVE to have settled their differences for Overture to work at all.... Of course previously Ky was helping Dizzy learn about herself and well... you know... >> I wouldn't know about who Anji would be travelling with... I don't think it'd be I-no since she was supposed to be sealed I'd see her as being by herself again in terms of lurking around... I've got a lot to say about her but I'm not going to now... Anji travelling with May would be most interesting to me... I'm not sure I know how Baiken would fit in there but I suppose it could be possible that all three of them could be together... don't know. >>
Skitz Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Are Guilty Gear: Judgment and Guilty Gear: Dust Strikers considered canon since they had a storyline? If so, where would they be placed in the timeline continuum (Before or in-between GGXX and GGXX Accent Core+)? Where is 'The Butterfly and Her Gale' placed in the timeline continuum (Before or in-between GGXX and GGXX Accent Core+)? Who is That Man's third servant? Is he known or is he still some shadowy figure? So far I only know of I-no and Raven. One last topic that's been confusing: do the stories in GGXX and GGXXAC+ happen in sequence after the other, or do they occur at different times (i.e. GGXX is part 1, then something else if TBAHG fits here, and then GGXXAC+ is part 2)?

And the answer to the 2nd question is there.
Skitz Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 This should belong to the official plot Q&A thread. And the answer to the 2nd question is there. Thanks for the directing. It seems to be in the same place that I've put it at for awhile now, but I'm not certain whether the year is right or not (even the guy who posted it said he didn't know much). What concerns me is, since GGXXAC+ gave us an extension in the XX story (or a Part 2), and if TBAHG takes place after the events, then it could not have been that long of time. I'm starting to believe that TBAHG is smack-dab in the middle of GGXX and GGXXAC+ (Both parts 1 and 2 of the story respectively). I guess it should be there, but this one is a GG Stories thread, so I'm not that far off.
Blade Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 To be fair, I was asking to confirm how many years passed after GGXX for BAHG. I believe it was 3 so that was my date placement, but I do know it's after for sure. Just checked, it's 2182.

I believe it was 3 so that was my date placement, but I do know it's after for sure. Just checked, it's 2182. I meant no offense mind you. I'm still trying to piece the whole story together myself without submitting to rumors and fan speculations. But, your data does add significance. That would mean that the time line would go like this: Gear Project, Crusades (GGXX Drama CD's Blk/Rd), NoK, GG:ML (GG1), LtA, Drama CD GGX, GGX:BYS, GGXX:MC [Part 1+2 divided up], and then BAHG. It all makes a lot of sense now, if Chipp is indeed working with Potemkin while he's with the U.S. President there.
Blade Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 I already posted an expanded timeline a while ago, but at the time I was still adding things up, so eventually you'll see a more thorough one posted either as FAQ or in the Q&A Thread. Also I pkan to tie-in the loose ends in transition of GGX+>GGXX>GGXXAC+ since those three are tightly linked.
Skitz Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 I like how your setting things up, Blade. I was going to jump on that myself, but I was doing some further investigations (i.e. where the GGXtra manga takes place. It's obvious, but I have to get off my lazy butt and read it). Aside from that one, my only confusion now is if GG: Dust Strikers and GG: Judgment are canon and where they are placed.
Blade Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 I'll answer this in the Q&A Thread so as to redirect you.

Jam-Kiske Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 I seem to recall Chipp saying that he had already gotten his revenge in GGXXAC+ and since he takes his revenge in The Butterfly and Her Gale well... then that would have to put it between GGXXAC & GGXXAC Unless I'm wrong in recalling that... >>
Blade Posted August 13, 2009 Posted August 13, 2009 Yes and no, I'll answer it in the OTHER THREAD. *dramatic pointing*
Lou_Cypher Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Have I mentioned I now ship Jin/Yuffie along with Ky/Larxene. I'm not odd for actually roleplaying those am I?
Blade Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Lou...don't confuse people who don't play those games.
Blade Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Guilty Gear XX Drama CD: Night of Knives Volume 3 Epilogue ~Golden Age~ Millia: It's good for now right? The commander is still sharp as ever. Zato: Do you wish to kill me? Millia: That's not what I mean, but… Zato: From Venom's proposal…That Man's death…the truth behind Catalonia's secret…inefficient subordinates aside, and all the so-called attempts for peace, I can feel a desire to kill from you…I am only interested in that. Millia: Now I see…well…about me…. Zato: You could have refused the mission and cancelled meeting for it. You betrayed the mission. Millia: I'm pretty weak, aren't I? Zato: That's not it. At some point, that way of doing things will get you caught. Millia: What should I do? Zato: The Soshiki won't look for you right away, but for now you can only flee. Millia: So there's no turning back? Am I a traitor to you? Once more…tell me if I'm a traitor… Zato: The Soshiki will be hunting you now…they won't rest. As a Traitor, this time failure results in assassination (he's referring to those hunting Millia). Millia: I wonder…if Venom will be happy…? Zato: Millia, you're still an assassin…no…I no longer need my humanity after this…please don't forget it. Millia: Zato… Zato: We're through…I won't forgive any more… Millia: I understand…but I won't run… (Millia walks away and closes the door.) Millia: (I won't ever run, Zato. Someday I'll come here again. And at that time…things will be put to rest.) Sometime later… A child cries about how itchy she is. Millia tries to calm her down, noting she seems to have pockmarks on her body. She tries to quiet the girl but it doesn't seem to work. Johnny: Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa! That's quite enough, little miss! Millia: Who are you!? (He seems like he's hiding something…) Johnny: (consoling the child), for a kid to cry this much is normal! Here…let me give you something….yes-yes-yes-what-what-what…what do you think of this wet cloth? Hmm? Hahah… (the child begins to laugh with him). You're a good kid. Looks like you're missing your mom here…that's not good… Millia: She's not mine if that's what you think. Johnny: Whoops, excuse me! So in other words she's being taken care of by you…eh? Millia: Yes… Johnny: I'll have to draw a line there…consider the situation for a child, do you really think this place is best? Millia: That's a mean thing to say…I was only trying to help…she was all by herself… Johnny: Hunh!! Now I see…but this place isn't very safe or very good for her. I happen to know a good place a den mother could look after her and get her clothes, though that's not saying much. Millia: Really… Johnny: Well, right now I shouldn't talk…tomorrow I have someone I have to return to, if I don't they'll kill me… Millia: Is that so…? Would you be able to make a side trip? Johnny: Sure. It's fine, for this child I shall bear any burden… Millia: EH..? Johnny: Heh..I was just doing the humanitarian thing…so stuff that happens, no matter what…it won't matter! Millia: (A demon slayer?) Johnny: Heheh…don't be so blue…It's not something to boast about but, Love is one of my primary duties! I take my leave then…have a wonderful day! Millia: If that child receives a home, then it's fine. In the meantime…I didn't really want to get hit up by some boring guy anyway…as for me, as long as everything's fine I'm leaving… Johnny: That settles it then…if I say I got delayed by a woman, everything for a lady, especially my love…will be given in assistance. Millia: You're pretty amusing…who are you? Johnny: Johnny..That…is my name. Narrator: After this, all knowledge of Catalonia, including its king…were lost to general public knowledge. The Head Commander's negotiation mission (Zato's Mission) was successful. Knowledge within the Guild regardi-- Johnny: Hey wait! That's a SE-CR-ET!! Well…while everyone's still happy, why don't we stop there! Narrator: Knowledge of the two of them became a mystery…information regarding the assassins' involvement with the incident, even up to the last was hidden. The true task they had been given had begun to take shape. Zato, Venom, and Millia. The three of them never reunited, as an infinite sadness became their fate. But that is a tale for another time. A white light was gathering itself through their efforts, though they were separate, their hearts had united…indeed, a warmth. Guilty Gear XX Drama CD: Night of Knives…END.
Blade Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Closing notes: There's a few things that I've not exactly made clear with my rough translation of Night of Knives...and probably some misinformation occurred as a result...May has nothing immediately to do with the God Series orphanage...or rather, more specifically, the God Series had more to do with Zato-one's kinjuu than anything else...the God Series were called "Sentinels" basically the equivalent of Humans given a "Dark Sentinel" form of the beast that Eddie can generate. I apologize if there's more key information out there that I'm not able to squeeze out of this turnip of a story, but my language comprehension skills only go so far... Furthermore, this apparently WAS the mission in which Millia was ostracized by Zato, however it seems he was very lenient on her afterwards and the idea that Zato-one was caught and put in dimensional prison appears to have been retconned from the immediate story...though it's still possible he was caught by the IPF later on only to meet Testament. The Soshiki compound in which they resided had a lot of things I wasn't able to completely describe in detail...particularly the point at which Zato's kinjuu was harvested for cloning/implantation in soldiers and the part where Millia is to some degree being interrogated by Slayer while immobilized. If anyone who can understand spoken Japanese can go over the Drama CDs again for me and seek corrections on some things or mistakes I did, I'd appreciate it, there's a lot of info there, including pre-revolution Zepp info. Johnny seems to want to "hide" a few things too. This'll be the last "storyline" post translation I'll probably do for a while since I plan on dedicating myself more to answering questions in the Q & A thread. I hope you guys liked it.

danceljoy Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Gigiddy... *Types it in Google* Yeah, intentionally yes perhaps... I was actually planning to write an X-rated scene, but even with a big amount of research that's the best I can so for now. Ky and Dizzy are just too innocent
