I can't tell if that's sarcasm or not but I'm hoping it is because "helpful" is the last thing I'd describe myself as.

All we have for now is a leak. No scans, not even a photo. There's not much more detail besides what's been summarised by Japanese blogs, which is what we've been told thus far. The information you're asking for, it doesn't exist just yet.

Yeah, I know. It was out of line. I just don't like the claim anything by Mori (who called Makoto's outfit "normal") is "mildly respectable". That entire line of thinking is just disturbing.

Hahahaha.... oh wait, you're serious. Let me laugh even harder... AHAHAHAAAA!!

Oh um nothing concrete, but she was at Cup of Tea (the recording studio) around the same time as David Vincent, D.C. Douglas, Richard Epcar and Ellyn Stern. Also, her recording sessions were being watched by Karrie Shirou, who works for Strangely Compelling. ArcSystemWorksU tweeted about recording of a new game and even retweeted something about Karrie helming some of those recordings. Nothing confirmed but the dots fit into place.

That should happen, if only for all the butthurt. All the glorious butthurt. BUTTHURT FOR DAYS!

How would Remix Heart characters probably play like? Mai = Similar to Sho/Minazuki (P4U2) Taro = Ranged Grappler (which is kinda a scary idea) Shiori = Mix of Bang and Terumi Chachakaka = Mix of Tao and Hazama Seifer = I have no idea how but I'm imagining an Evil Edward Elric in terms of aesthetics. Akane, Cajun and Ema-sensei I have absolutely no idea. And IMHO if Shiori and Chacha were made playable, they should be one playable character together, 2-in-1. Not sure how that would work, but that's just my opinion on the matter. This news kinda explains why Stephenie Sheh was apparently at a recording session for something ArcSys-related as I had gathered from stalking Twitter in the past couple of weeks.

No, it isn't. It's Tomokazu Seki. It's in the freaking credits that "Original Man" (AKA "The Original") is voiced by Seki.

Yes, it is canon. Depending on who you talk to that may or may not be be a good thing.

Lolwat? There were people complaining about how Venom sounds like a white guy trying to sound black... then it turns out that Venom is voiced by an actual black guy.

Pretty sure you can do that in CP, it just works differently. In fact, I'm pretty sure you can play any mode while waiting for matches in CP with the exception being story mode.

I already pegged her as Val.

I honestly don't see how you can think Aria is voiced by Cassandra Lee. She doesn't sound like her at all.

Bullet's story is stated as just being one of the new stories and we also know that there are Kokonoe and Kagura stories. Her story focuses on an event in the past where she infiltrated Sector Seven to find out about what happened to her unit. About the other 2: Kokonoe's story, interestingly, is about Lotte "Roy" Carmine (Arakune before he was Arakune). Kagura's story is about the shared past between him and Jin.

... Aria sounds nothing like Cassandra Lee. She sounds more like the same VA as Dizzy and April.

After listening for a while, Ram's voice is fine. Just needs better direction.

I already did that a week ago when discussing info coming from Famitsu.

[/spoier] An L is missing.

Uh... the official Japanese website of BlazBlue mentions the Xbox One version, Famitsu also mentions the Xbox One version. I'd imagine it's not only for the West. We've heard nothing about what's happening in the West with BBCP Extend. Actually, I just realised. This scan is probably from Dengeki Playstation, so of course they wouldn't mention the Xbox version.

I can not see this scan, though it may or may not be new. Please upload it elsewhere. Edit: My mistake, your link is just faulty. You forgot a colon. Scan is new, but doesn't actually have new info. Of note, it does not mention the Xbox One version at all. Actually, the Xbox One version isn't even available for pre-order last I checked, only the PS3 and PS4 versions are.

HORI are releasing a BBCPEX stick. It's PS3/PS4 compatible and uses a 6-button layout; looks like it's based off the HORI Fighting Stick and not the HRAP. This is the first BlazBlue-based HORI stick since the one they made for BBCS Extend. It's kinda true though. There's no way of telling how a company will react to a lack of purchases.

http://www.arcsystemworks.jp/bblive2015/outline/ BlazBlue Music Live 2015 will feature the vocals of Kanako Kondou and Tsuyoshi Koyama. I like that logo, it looks like two birds locking talons with eachother.

You think that actually exists?

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201412/25068695.html So, about the new stories. Apparently with them the game's story length goes up to approximately 40 hours, 10 more than the original Chronophantasma was reported to be. The way they've been described reminds me greatly of the EX stories from the handheld version CS2 and also CS Extend. Those were half an hour in length each, were set in the past and had no fighting. They are individual character stories, but there is no confirmation as to whether the Bullet, Kokonoe and Kagura stories are the only one being added or not. If they are like the EX stories from Continuum Shit II/Extend, then if we go by their length (30 minutes) and divide by the amount if hours being added, we'd get approximately 20 new stories. Probably reduce that to 18 if we count the anthology from the Vita version of CP, since it is being included in CP Extend. This is by no means confirmation of there being that many new stories, please do not take it as such. It's just something to ponder on. Probably worth noting, one of the preorder bonuses features Noel wearing the summer uniform of the Military Academy, which first appeared in Remix Heart.
