Tokkan

No confirmed date for the anime.

Fujiwara, not Inafune. Mighty No.9 on the brain? (Isn't MN9 on everyone's brains?)

http://blazblue-am.jp/ Website has updated with TV channels. BBAM will be airing from October on Tokyo MX, TV Osaka, TV Aichi and other unannounced channels.

BBCP, Getsuei Academy -kou, Seisou no Amazones, Swords and Darkness, Damascus Gear ~Tokyo Shisen~, Fantasy Hero (Tentative), Magical Beat.

Your hints for the reference are "Hiimdaisy" and "Shadow Teddie".

Are you doing this intentionally or did the reference just fly over your head?

Oh... Well, I found a sample reel on his talent page.

Continuum Shift novel looks like its cover connects with that of its second part in the same way Phase Shift 2 and Phase Shift 3 did.

Eh... I don't think Mitsuhiro Ichiki can do a convincing "feminine voice" in the way you're probably thinking.

Hibiki is voiced by a guy in the original Japanese, he should in fact still be voiced by a guy in English to remain consistent.

Also Rina Satou, who's voicing Mei Asou in Getsuei Academy -Kou-. They're calling it a "tour version", which may be like the specials between the first season and Zoku. Edit: I had a look and it's on the same day as the release date for Getsuei Academy -Kou-. It's also 2 weeks before the release of BBCP on PS3.

Dafuq? That's not what it is. The poll is part of an event called "The BBCP 1st Character General Election" which ran from the 8th through to the 31st of August and in which players spend their P$ to vote on their favourite of the current playable cast (20P$ = 1 vote, 200P$ = 10 votes). The winning character was going to have their VA become the announcer in the Arcade version for a limited time, have a special title and a special icon commemorating their victory awarded to all registered players and have a "limited illustration" of them posted on the official site at a TBD date. http://blazblue.jp/topics.html#topics533

http://sp.bbcp.ac/info_event_list.php?y=2013&m=09#info59 Azrael won the "Character General Election". Which means Azrael's going to be the announcer in the arcade version for a limited time and also get a special illustration.

False, that feature is in fact available in arcades. It was even advertised as a feature of the player's guild before launch. http://www.famitsu.com/images/000/024/585/50a9125087542.html

Methinks they're going to launch a Bururaji series that runs concurrent with the anime.

Actually, they're tin badges.

Stuff from the network mode section that might be of some interest: 1. In previous games you could play around in Training Mode and Arcade Mode while waiting for matchmaking in Ranked. In CP, you can now wait for matchmaking in Tutorial Mode, Versus Mode, Challenge Mode, Score Attack and Unlimited Mars. 2. When they looked through the Icons (they showed normal, Bururaji and "Practicing" Icons), I noticed that Kagura's icons were locked and are behind question marks. Also, both Kokonoe and Mu don't have Bururaji icons (weird that they don't). There are Bururaji icons for Gii, Jubei, Lambda, the Imperator and Celica. Noel and Tsubaki each have 2 Bururaji icons, for both their new and old designs/colours.

From 4Gamer (http://www.4gamer.net/games/213/G021354/20130828038/) "Hehehe... It's been awhile... Brother." Ragna muses about how pathetic he is, then is startled when he notices that he's being healed by someone... Interesting, so this scene is after the equivalent story episode for Hazama's arcade final boss. I knew this scene had to be in the present day, Ragna's wearing both sleeves of his jacket.

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201308/28038865.html Another Famitsu article on the story mode. Edit: http://www.4gamer.net/games/213/G021354/20130828038/ 4Gamer has a similar article, their screenshots of the story CGs also have dialogue. LOL, Ragna talks to himself about how pathetic it was for him to be defeated... Then he notices he's being healed and he's like "Huh? What... This sensation...!?".

The rips I've seen are only of the iTunes version of the single, which does not contain the off-vocal tracks. If you want the off-vocal tracks, you'll have to buy the physical disc.

No. Please be patient.

Or you know, Rachel could just be Rachel and flat out refuse to give Ragna any explanation... Because she has done that several times before, even in times when actually explaining things to him would probably be to her own benefit as well.
