Zedar posted the scan already.

... They just spoiled the fact that the girl from the screenshot in the Xblaze Lost Memories Famitsu article is in fact Celica and not just a lookalike. Fuck.

Looks like Ramlethal? The text on the scan says it is Ramlethal.

I have found better translations of Celica's moves. Pic Confit (Pike + Confit) Arc Griller (Bow + Grilling) Marteau Flan (Hammer + Flan) Hache Rôtir (Axe + Roasting) Lance Quiche (Lance + Quiche) Armure Sorbet (Armor + Sorbet) Sabre Anglaise (Sword/Saber + Crème Anglaise) Casque Veloute (Helmet + Velouté sauce) Please use these translations from now on.

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201408/07058595.html Aegis Blade now has invulnerability. Strike Fall > Mirage Thruster is now a thing as well.

Ah looks like the style of Xrd's Story Mode is a mix of the older story modes from previous GGs with the cinematic cutscenes of Xrd's arcade mode.

"Guard Cancel Overdrive" apparently will have the same length as normal Overdrive in the loketest versions at least.

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201408/07058595.html Lvl2 drives can be cancelled into special moves. This change was made because non-Lvl3 drives were rarely used. Parry is now a strike with guard point.

Valkenhayn's Himmel Wolf is now throw escapable. Holy shit. It's now a normal throw and can be broken like a normal throw.

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201408/07058595.html Interview. Also, a new system mechanic "Guard Cancel Overdrive". You can now cancel into OD from block.

It could refer to the Narrator option as seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=loqDj9DhzNQ Edit: I saw your post on NeoGAF, FluxWaveZ. You might want to correct yourself.

If I'm to believe my sources then Margaret's title is イケメン飼いのドS秘書 (The Sadistic Secretary of Herding Pretty Boys).

To be fair, Minerva is basically Celica's enabler for becoming playable and Minerva didn't actually appear until the final chapters of BBCP's story. Mori was just covering his arse by avoiding something that's technically a spoiler for the story of his own game. Even the BlazBlue Phase 0 novel avoided giving any sort of hint that Trinity was one of the Six Heroes because it came out reasonably close in date to the console version of BBCS; the intention was that you were to play through Bang's story in CS to get that confirmation.

All we have is movelist changes for now. Actual balance changes won't be known until the loketest starts in a couple of days.

It may be called "Id Zein", just FYI.

Upon further research, it's probably "Pic Confit" (no K) and "Ache Rotir".

Nu literally stabbing Ragna in the back probably has something to do with it.

And just like that I missed that Amane's Seiju Rensokyaku now has 236236D as its input now (was 632146C). I'm working on Celica's move list. BTW, Lambda's OD is called "Illusion". Celica Movelist: Pick Confit - j.214A Arc Griller - 236B Marthe Franc - 214B (chargeable) Ash Rotir - 236C (chargeable) Lance Quiche - 214C (chargeable) Armure Sorbet - 632146A (chargeable) Sabre Anglaise - 632146B Casque Veloute - 632146C

http://blazblue.jp/topics.html#topics661 Command list PDFs have been added. Lambda does not have Supra, Supra is exclusive to Nu. Makoto parry is now 214D. Relius now has a 3rd follow up for Id Lauger. Izayoi can now follow up Strike Fall with Valkyrie Astraea. Kagura's Fafner/Dragon's Ascent has a B version now. Probably somethings I missed. Looking over: Tao has a new move called Tao Pittan, input is j.214D while at the edge of the screen (or just j.D when used as follow-up to Dancing Edge). It is chargeable and can be modified by holding 6. Hazama's Jabaki now has a new input, 236A (was 236D) For Valkenhayn, Koenig Wolf and Eisen Wolf now have C Versions while Himmel Wolf is now throw input. Bullet can now Brake from Miquelet Capture by pressing B. Izayoi's Slaver Trans-Am now costs a minimum of 1 stock but will consume all stocks (previously cost exactly 4 stocks). Kokonoe's Activate is now chargeable. Edit: FYI trying to skim while relaying info is bad, I got a few details wrong while posting it here and had to correct myself several times.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1cSOE4y1ks#t=470 Yeah, he starts explaining it at around 7:50. "kyodaika suru" ("become giant").

Called what? Ozawa said so himself in that demonstration.

I wasn't arguing against his point, I'm just a dirty stinking pedant.
