Well, where do I start? It was April 22nd, 2010. I was just a rejected, depressed guy before finding BlazBlue. The only things that kept me from killing myself were mainstream anime and FPS's (which I got bored of shortly before playing BB for the first time). One day, our class went on a field trip to the public library. We were allowed to borrow one game, so I looked around for an interesting-looking game. My eye caught the radiant cover of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger. The most interesting thing about the cover was the characters, to be specific, Ragna the Bloodedge and Jin Kisaragi. I borrowed the game and popped it into my 360 right away.
The first thing I noticed was the storyline. I was like "OK, I don't understand what's going on" and such. After a week of the game, I started to understand the story and how the characters developed over the course of the game. When I finished the true ending, I cried my heart out at the Noel and Ragna seen.
This game brought hope into my life and inspired my to become an author (well, amateur any ways). You can really learn a lot from this game.
