Blazblue: Alter Memory

[Agni]

I guess that would depend on how detailed the rotoscoping models currently are. Some things would definitely need to be remodeled such as cloth and hair.

In the GG xrd trailer, Ky's outfit shows a lot of cloth effects for example, if using that as a benchmark.

Given that FGs use completely canned animations down to the neutral poses, they could simply pre-calculate cloth and hair calculations for each animation on a more powerful computer, and then use the animation data there. Since the characters will never make a movement outside of the pre-defined animations, there's no need for real-time processing of such things. Would help keep the framerate high too.

What is that even from.

[BlackYakuzu94]

PRetty sure its a "TALK ABOUT THE ANIME" bot.

[Chaoschao222]

That's more or less what it means, yes. Looking back, I should give a text-based warning along with the no-fun bot when suggesting people get back on topic so it doesn't spawn another off-topic discussion about what it is.

LOL at that name for the opening theme. "Blue Blaze"... it's just BlazBlue but with the word order in reverse.

[SolxBaiken]

Is the shot with Bullet, Azrael, and Amane from the CP console opening perhaps? .o.

[samthegreat]

So I had to flip my head upside down to gaze at perfection properly... Is this subtle trolling right there?

[BladeOfJustice7]

I'd assume so, it couldn't be anything else.

[RagnaXBL]

Not bad, wanted it to look like the calamity trigger opening in terms of animation quality but i guess i was hoping for too much

still looks pretty good though

[BlackYakuzu94]

Could look worse, its alright for what it is I suppose. So it is an adaption of Calamity Trigger it would seem.

[kosmos badgirl]

Decent trailer. Who is the girl singing the ED Theme?.

Aira Yuhki.

I figure you're asking "who", not "how".

[kosmos badgirl]

Odd that so many BBCP-related terms, and even BBCS-related terms were in a trailer that appears to deal with BBCT alone.

IMOOOOOOO (so chao doesn't body me till the end) CT's OP is pretty bad.

In terms of animation quality it's great (the anime itself). Not jojo/Shingeki great but close enough. Dat shadinnngg

[SoWL]

The CP OP teaser was the best part of the trailer for me. The animation is nothing outstanding, and it feels like the coloring is a bit too pale. I also don't like Faylan singing three OPs in a row, I want my KOTOKO

[Tokkan]

That's cool. I'm not really a fan of KOTOKO, only songs from her I've ever really liked are "Being" and "Light My Fire". "Ao -Iconoclast-" is pretty meh and "Hekira no Sore e Izanaido" is godawful.

[TheYukianesa-01]

Animation isn't that top notch, but I personally like it.

"Hekira no Sore e Izanaido" is godawful.

I think my feelings hurt ;A;

[Kurushii]

If you want to watch the PV, go watch it on the website. Do not re-upload it to YouTube and other sites. ASW is handing out copyright infractions for this stuff and we will not support it here.

[Chipp12]

Anybody recognized that they've actually used arcade CS opening instead of godawful console one?

[kylehyde]

I like the fact that we got to see a snipet of young Ragna trying to control his new arm. I hope the anime dives deeper into his past with a bit more detail than the games do.

[LeDom]

What I really hope for is that all of the characters will get a good amount of focus. Of course Ragna, Noel, Jin and Rachel will have more exposure; they're the main characters. However, what I like most in the BB story is seeing events from many character's point of view and seeing them develop and progress with their respective goals.

And I hope we won't have a close-up of Noel's ass or Litchi's cleavage every two minutes...
