... Do we even know what time travel rule set BlazBlue follows? Is it an immutable timeline, a mutable timeline or parallel timelines? (I don't think it's mutable, lol.) Because predestination paradox is something you see in an immutable timeline, but Noel's very existence makes me think it's parallel timelines.

the reason the dolls are called "Detonator" is because he plans on using them to activate ("Detonate") Kushinada's Lynchpin.

Got the real thing. Mu's arcade mode is a direct continuation of Noel's. When Mu fight's Ragna, it's because she wants to prove she can become as strong as he is. Then Terumi brings her over with a phenomena intervention to fight Nu. Nu basically beats the crap out of Mu, so she has to retreat. After which, Rachel brings her back. Rachel tells Mu/Noel to go back to Kokonoe, but Mu/Noel had a few realisations about what it means to become strong and that Rachel is in fact a kind person.

I was joking.

It's more like Mu/Noel thinks Ragna's being a pervert and staring at her bare skin.

http://contentssync-arcsystemworks.ambel.info/index.cgi?eid=817 Qualifiers between February 16 and April 21. Finals in mid-May. Further details are to be revealed in mid-January when the tournament's official website is expected to go up. The venue for the finals is expected to announced on the official website at a later date.

Mu's arcade mode: 7th: Ragna 8th: Nu No Izayoi, weird.

Only the ones that you can buy are viewable on the player's guild site. Default 6 do not show up.

I posted that info. It was a mistake but not on my part, the post in the jBBS thread listed the numbers as being 3,5,6,7 and not 3,6,7,8 as it should have been. I made a later post pointing this out as I had saw a stream of Azrael arcade mode then. Also, don't count on there being a new character after Izayoi; at least not until on or after the console release.

Phase Shift characters have their own category, which we already have all the icons for.

http://blazblue.jp/cp/chara_myu.html Mu's been added to the official site. Her new move, Ikutachi's command is 63214B. Would post this in the Mu general thread in the Mu sub-forum, but I'm getting a "not acceptable" server error when I try to open that thread.

That "teaser" is technically correct, just only for Izayoi's arcade mode. Whenever we get to see that.

Not yet, actually. Though in Makoto's arcade mode ending, Izayoi is basically about to kill Makoto until... something... happens and she stops herself from doing it and drops down to her knees. Makoto thinks she came back to her normal self in that scene, but there's no sign of that being permanent or anything.

Possibly a potential design for Shuichiro Ayatsuki. However, it's hard to say since we never actually got to see him, we've only seen his logs.

In Chimelical Complex, Terumi possessed Jin. But that's just a manga adaptation. CT Reconstruction indicates Terumi was visibly there, even if nothing but a shadow, and was not actually possessing anyone. He actually communicated with Ragna, even.

I think I have an inkling of this, actually. In the Wheel of Fortune Drama CD, Relius and Hazama basically treat Saya like an object and call her the "vessel". Plus in CT Reconstruction, Noel has a dream where she was sick and "her brother" (Ragna) was taking care of her. Of course, this dream was just a memory of Saya's that Noel was experiencing in her dream. Basically, my theory goes that the Imperator has hijacked Saya's body, and the bulk of Saya's soul is inside Noel, with Nu potentially having some of Saya's soul too. Now, as to who the Imperator actually is, I have no clue. Those were a control group, unnumbered prime fields that were being experimented on to perfect the tempering process for 11, 12 and 13. Relius said as much in his BBCP arcade when fighting Makoto.

Prime field devices are made like the Nox Nyctores, except the mass of souls is sealed within a person rather than a weapon. The Murakumo Unit is itself a manifestation of the prime field device's powers in the form of armour made of Hihiirokane metal. But the actual Nox called "Murakumo" are the prime fields themselves once they've finished tempering. About the other 4 Nox. Yukianesa was wielded by Seven (who was also the ancestor/founder of the Kisaragi family), Bolverk was used by Three. You already know about Celica with Nirvana. I don't know about Rettenjou, I think I read Valkenhayn may have used it but I got no confirmation, I consider that potentially false for the moment.

Yes, but this was only done once. To make Take-Mikazuchi. Take-Mikazuchi's core was then divided in 2, and the other half was divided into 8 to be used as the cores for the other Nox.

Nah, it's a bit different from that. Hakumen is Jin inside the Susano'o Unit. From what I remember, the Sankishin came from the Boundary and both the Susano'o Unit and Tsukuyomi Unit were excavated with the first gate/cauldron. The Alucards took custody of them. Terumi was the original soul of the Susano'o Unit. Also, the Master Unit has its own soul, too. The Master Unit rewrote Kokonoe's memories with a phenomena intervention for some unknown reason in Tager's BBCP arcade ending.

Who said that?

Why would he call himself "Susano'o-no-mikoto" when waking up Mu if that wasn't his name?

Terumi was in the Susano'o Unit because Terumi IS Susano'o. And yes, this does mean his goal is to kill his sister, the Master Unit.

Please don't call me a translator.

What difference does that make? You're still being close-minded.

LOL... it's not "anime" colour, it's "reference" colour (Japanese call it "parody colour"). Same as in CS, where Jin had Ky Kiske, Hazama had The Joker and Valkenhayn had Jon Talbain. Felicia and Ika Musume have BASICALLY very similar colours, but Felicia is a more likely reference because CAT.
