The Red Queen isn't actually the Queen of Hearts. The former is the Red Queen as in red/white chess sets, the latter is the...well, you know, card. /nitpick Who is the March Hare though? And Makoto could be the dormouse. They're both rodents after all.

I hope Valk doesn't play like Talbain or Slayer just to mess with everybody. And wasn't the source used for Valk and Platinum's drive names not valid? We still don't know what their drive names are (although Lycanthropy and Angelica wouldn't be out of place), neither what they do.

Might be caused by trauma, much like Ragna's. Or magic.

Teach Me, Miss Litchi's information (stuff about Armagus, the NOL, Dark War, etc.) is canon, its characterization is heavily exaggerated and its events are not. Help Me, Dr. Kokonoe would presumably be the same. edit: Ninja'd. >:

You can try to scan it without breaking the spine? However, the side close to the middle will probably be cut off. Alternatively, take pictures with a camera. Sure, it makes for crappy scans, but you can keep your doujin in pristine condition. May I ask what doujin and pairing it is? :3

Not that many sadly. And even fewer scanned. ;_; What internal organ do I have to slice out to get them aaaah. I guess since it's just lolporn it doesn't adhere to any plot (god knows most of the stuff I enjoy doesn't) or semblance of characterization, it's just PWP for the purpose of whacking off, but....did they really have to make Nu's breasts like F-cup?

HAHA OTL I totally did not realize that. Sorry for riffing off your request D:

Droppin' it off here for the list~ Maskless!Hakumen smiling sadly, while Ragna gently caresses his face. Insert sad quote like the spoilery one we talked about or something like, "you'll always be my brother?" Idk, your choice. Be creative! (I can do a art-fic trade too.)

GIMP hates everyone. The reason it's free? It's powered by your tears of frustration as you vainly attempt to work out how the fuck to use it, and even if you do that, it persists in glitching up or freezing or RAAAAAAAAAAARGH ...But very nice job. It looks great to me.

It wasn't really translated but there's bits and pieces of a summary on page 59. I think. I'm still skimming. edit: quotan'

Rachel never bites Ragna in her short story though. I think--think, don't quote me on this--she draws a magic circle around him, it glows blue, sometime later Ragna....sort of wakes up, but not really, only his right (now red) eye open. He then drags himself to where the Black Beast's body was sealed, and is engulfed in darkness. Let me go flip through the past pages to find the summary. But....I'm not sure anymore. The whole vampirism issue is, iirc, never talked about aside from Rachel's CT arcade ending, and that's only "oh yeah once I bit a boy with jade eyes. Felt good, man." Both of his eyes are red? They look green to me. His right eye appears to glow red during Black Onslaught (or at least the part where Ragna's covered in shadow), though. And y'know, we've never seen Rachel in direct sunlight. She might sparkle after all! .... I'll get my coat. (And just as a question, maybe we should move this conversation to the BBCS speculation thread? It makes it a little difficult to find actual info buried in this thread.)

Ragna's Drive is named Soul Eater. The Azure Grimoire devours souls. Blood Kain enhances the power of Ragna's drive. HMMM. Ragna does have an unused quote where he says something like, "I'm not suckin' your blood 'cause it tastes good!" but really, given the information from Rachel's material collection story, you could make an argument that Ragna isn't a vampire at all. Not even half. He lacks the needle teeth Rachel has too.

Oh my god, common sense, dude. If it's about Continuum Shift's story, it should be easy to assume that it's going to have spoilers. Judging by the sound clips for Mu vs Jin, I guess End Bringer would be the official translation for Antibody?

Because they're her clones. But it's made pretty clear the Imperator is THE Saya. The fact that Ragna and Jin immediately realize it instead of going SAYAAA--oh wait you're not her, my bad sorry sorry or something is a pretty big tipoff. Ragna being Bloodedge isn't possible even with timeloop shenanigans. If Bloodedge exists in every loop, but Ragna has become the Black Beast in every loop except the True End...well, you see something wrong here?

....Uh, what? Ragna isn't actually calling the Murakumo Units Saya, he's apologizing to her memory. The Imperator is most definitely Saya unless the next game spits out another tweest at us. And Mu only calls him Bloodedge once, it's either the Black Beast or nightmare. It's just referring to his title, and unless reincarnation or more cloning (please no) is involved it's impossible for Ragna to be the Bloodedge Jubei knew.

More like the Azure colored his right eye red. It's magic, it doesn't need an explanation.

Not in the game. In one of the phonecards Mori drew you do see it, it's normal-shaped but dark, and extends up to this shoulder. If you shock Ragna, you can actually see where the artificial parts of the Azure end and his actual arm begins. Edit: LOL I just realized Ragna is actually still wearing his glove and seal-thingy on his right hand in the phonecard....but if you look at his shoulder you can see some nasty-looking red-and-black swirls and lines. Also as a teenager, Ragna wears a noticeably longer glove on his right arm than on his left.

It's most likely her Azure fragment in the shape of an eye, much like how Ragna's is in the shape of his right arm.

Yeah, it is. You may have to zoom in a bit, but it's definitely messed up, especially compared to Ragna's green eye. Also, look very closely at the bottom right.

Possible answer is that she never bit him except in the first loop. It was the Azure Grimoire that saved his life in all other timelines.

Yeah, Nu's right eye is like....funky. If you look closely the sclera is black and has some weird swirls in it. It reminds me a lot of some official artwork where Ragna is using the Azure and his right eye is darkened, although not totally black.

I'm sorry, it would just seem like a cop-out to me. Hey, if the three siblings were the artificial humans spoken of in the Collection, the ones made from the Black Beast's DNA, does that mean Ragna is his own father/clone? And technically the father of his siblings?! 'Cause, uh, that's. wat. Damn timeloop shenanigans!

Same...egg...? LOL that's identical twins. Considering they're all green-eyed and blond, and Jin and Saya have similar facial structure, the signs heavily point to them all being biological siblings. But even if they aren't, psychologically, they're all still siblings. If the whole man-made bit is 100% true, then they could just come from the same stock. Though personally, I will be very :| if Mori says they aren't biological siblings.
