Sorry for the double/triple or whatever post xD Thought I'd make a fresh post for going through the links. The Notable Japanese Rachel Player Ranking as also been updated for this week (05/05/2013 GMT+1 19:00) Before I go on to sort through the videos, I'll type up a little run down of what I'm planning: 1. Add in the new characters that will be available on JP console release into the video match ups list. (Done) 2. Break the list between two posts to allow more videos to be included on the first page of this thread. (Done) 3. Catch up on the videos that need checking through on the BBCP Video Posting Thread. Page 38 onwards. (Done) (Kind of an ongoing thing though) Just like. A, B and C I will change the character names to the intials/2 letters later on: (Done) [04/12/13] RC (Momoiro) Vs RG (Hara) [?/?/13] RC (Rin-Hime) Vs VH (Koge) x2 [?/?/13] RC (Rin-Hime) Vs VH (Koge) x3 [03/31/13] RC (Tamio) Vs CA (Roi) [03/31/12] RC (Tamio) Vs PT (A-ru) [04/16/13] RC Vs TG (Charin) [04/16/13] AM Vs RC [04/16/13] AR Vs RC [04/16/13] AM Vs RC [04/16/13] AM Vs RC [04/16/13] AR Vs RC x2 [04/16/13] RG Vs RC x6 (I'm sure I counted six matches in a row here but I feel like I've made a mistake, I'll have to review this at another time) [04/16/13] PT Vs RC (N-O) x3 [04/16/13] LT Vs RC (N-O) [04/16/13] MK Vs RC (N-O) [04/16/13] RG Vs RC (N-O) [04/16/13] MK Vs RC (N-O) x8 [04/05/13] RC (Arisa) Vs HZ (Hiro) [04/05/13] RC (Arisa) Vs TK (Kyari) [04/05/13] RC (Arisa) Vs CA (Tooru) [04/05/13] RC (Arisa) Vs RG (Naru) [04/18/13] TK Vs RC (N-O) [04/18/13] HZ Vs RC (N-O) [04/18/13] LT Vs RC (N-O) x8 [04/18/13] RC (N-O) Vs JN (Gagaga) [04/18/13] JN (Gagaga) Vs RC (N-O) [04/18/13] RC (N-O) Vs TK (Kinji) [04/18/13] RC (N-O) Vs LT (Galileo) [04/19/13] RC (Minoru) Vs AR (Fumo) [04/19/13] RC (Minoru) Vs RG [04/19/13] RC (Minoru) Vs PT (H&K) [04/09/13] RC (Minoru) Vs RG (Rousoku) [04/06/13] HZ (Ryota) Vs RC (Tamio) [04/06/13] HZ (Hasegawa) Vs RC (Tamio) Post #379 Link 1 doesn't seem to feature any video.

However Chariot have their own YT it was pointed but I'm not quite sure what will be missing. Here's the link nonetheless: Chariot YouTube Thanks to samthegreat for providing us with more Rachel Videos Just editing in the dates so I can quickly add them into the match ups posts. Checked up to Post #391 of the CP Video Posting Thread

I'll see what I can do tomorrow. No college on Monday due to Bank Holiday. Just posting here as a note to self; I got to check Post 38 of the CP Video Posting Thread onwards for Rachel videos. I'm sure by the time I get round to adding/checking everything I'll have to split everything between two posts. So I think I'll do that, when I'm at it I'll add in the new characters names in preparation for when the game is released. Busy day tomorrow if I can use this computer.

Then you're going to need to use Tenso which I tried signing up to yesterday but Japanese law states that sites like Tenso need photo evidence of your billing/home address (Tenso tells you what they need and how you can upload proof). Basically you provide proof of the information you are submitting. I sent my proof away but I still have to wait for several days until they can decide the proof is good enough. Once you've proven your address you can start using Tenso as the middle man to get things from websites like Amazon Japan you can't order normally. I can't move onto the next stage until I've been given the clear for my proof but I did a fair bit of reading of the terms of use and FAQ's Tenso provide. But either way you'll be waiting a few days until they say you're good to use their service. EDIT: Just got an email from Tenso today, I failed the proof thing, I forgot to upload an image with my "Name" and "Date of Birth". Whoops. I guess I wasn't thinking clearly at the time, still sleepy. They'll let me redo it until I can confirm the details I sent them it seems. They say you can use things like a Passport, drivers licence or an ID card as a few examples. Thought I'd bring it up here if anyone else was thinking of using Tenso. Back to square one with that then as Amazon Japan is back up for me xD

It was very difficult for me to navigate the website anyway as I don't understand Japanese (I need to see if I can learn somewhere, I'm hoping to go next year xD ) I live in the UK, England so I couldn't find any way to order from them, so it might be different for you and others who live in the US. Sorry I'm not much help on this area.

Well I tried logging into Amazon.jp with my own Amazon UK account and it wouldn't let me log onto the Japanese Amazon store, I made a Japanese Amazon account to try and bypass that problem only to find that my Postal Code didn't fit into the boxes provided for shipping address. Which means if I want something from Amazon Japan, I need to use something like that Tenso. Amazon US and UK work together and you can buy from either one whether you live in America or Britain. But JP like keeping their items to themselves it seems and sell only to the Japanese market. Otherwise the world would be filled with Dakimakuras xD

Well I trusted Amazon UK when I got the Sonic Generations Collectors Edition. The packaging was twice the size of the original box. I'm sure as it is Amazon just in Japanese (same company so) it'll be easier to trust imo. It's just that Tenso stuff that bothers me as they have to act as a middle man to get things from the Amazon.jp to other countries. EDIT: Hopefully my pre-order with Nin-nin game will work out so I think I can sleep tonight... For now anyway. Had all sorts of problems where I needed to speak to my bank and go through the ordering process while on the phone to stop my payment being blocked. Bad thing is, I didn't do the work I was meant to do over the weekend for College D: SCREW IT! I'M DOING THIS FOR RACHEL (I don't like to lie so I won't. So I'm going to say I had more important matters on my plate this weekend) @TD: If you'd like, I don't mind taking some time aside to work on the structure for presenting your new Mix-Ups thread information. Then send you a PM whether you like how it is presented or not

Updated the Notable Japanese Rachel Player Ranking for this week: 04/28/2013 GMT+1 20:00 Sorry for the late update but I've been spending a lot of time hunting down the LE of CP to no avail it seems >_> Hopefully when College work settles down I can go back to sorting through the video thread as well. Apologies there for taking ages to go through it all still. EDIT: Sorry still for taking ages to get round to the videos. Still going through this Apprenticeship process and my College work, College should be over in 3-4 weeks time so hopefully I can get everything done before then and crack on with some Rachel videos.

Looks like I can't do anything till Monday now. I'm sure all business has closed up shop for the weekend. Monday is useless to me due to college so I ain't waking up at 4 in the morning >_> Another thing I don't like when reading through YesAsia's (I considered as I've become impatient xD ) website in the FAQ's, they can't guarantee that you will receive all the bonus stuff if you order. So I read it like this. You spend (in my case £105) for just a regular copy of the game, for they don't mention anything further on from their answer in the FAQ that they would reduce the price if you don't get bonus stuff. They also have some strange refund/return policy. I didn't like the idea of this but I thought I'd try and set up a Tenso (not very confident in going about all this) and it's a nightmare to sort through and now I'm waiting until they can confirm my details as I had to upload an image as proof. In the end I might as well see what the situation is on Monday and just sleep all day tomorrow. I'm going to be waiting anyway >_> Hopefully PlayAsia who I'm more comfortable ordering from will do another pre-order run and I check the website at a lucky time. Sorry for moaning here but I wanted to vent my tiredness somewhere, I'm off to sleep for the remainder of the afternoon or something. I still want Rachel Neno badly though.

I can always try though xD Thanks for clarifying that with me, I'll keep checking the websites Edit: Still holding out, not died from lack of sleep yet. Promise xD (spelling mistakes, I blame tiredness)

You say EST midnight samthegreat. It's now 4AM in the UK so I guess I've got to wait another hour or two.

I'm F5'ing now. I've got Dr.Pepper and my will to go on. All day and night. Keeping my eyes open and checking things regularly. I'll be getting the EU version when that happens as well, for I can't read Japanese. Edit: I shouldn't be doing this but I'm putting this before my college work xD I got a lot of work to catch up on soon as this is all over and my goal is reached. Hopefully I'll reach it otherwise my work doesn't get done.

I don't care, I want Rachel xD And other swag to go towards my BlazBlue shrine I'm trying to build. I'm going to be up all night and morning checking for CP LE. Luckily it's a weekend. Rachel -----> She will be mine

Even if 160 USD sounds cheaper in GBP, £105. It's still too much. P-A (I assume you mean Play-Asia, I'm not very good with abbreviations) I guess I'll have to stalk the website night and day on my PS3 web browser waiting as I don't have my own computer. Amazon JP was too much for me to Navigate, I could only make an account and then I couldn't figure out the rest ;_;

;_; I missed out on the LE pre-orders. I really want that Rachel neno and now I'm kicking myself and everything. I got caught up in work I didn't check DL this morning.

Don't worry, I update in small segments a bit at a time and regularly check the character limit. I like updating slowly and systematically so I can be aware when I may need to split the Match Ups post into the posts around it and free up more space while keeping all the links present Thanks for letting me know what Momoiro's new name is, I'll be sure to update the name soon. EDIT: Done Btw, sorry for taking what it seems to be forever checking through the Page 38 onwards of the CP Video Posting Thread, I've been concentrating on College work and I'm applying for various jobs, apprenticeships etc. for when I finish College soon.

Neno petite can be worse than normal nendoroids , especially the BRS ones. I still can't get Dead Masters Scythe on without making everything else fall apart. Same for BRS cannon xD By the looks of things Gii looks like he'll be troublesome to get on his stand... Btw I forgot to mention on here I've changed all the character names in the CP Rachel Video Thread, I've put up the key to who's initials/2 letters belong to which character on the latest post and in the post that shows the Japanese Rachel Player Rankings and Combo videos

Glad I was able to provide you with some feedback Btw, Rachel neno looks amazing. I really need a job... I've been searching for a while now ;_; I've only caught on about the two new characters. Guess I could make a space for them in the Video Thread in preparation for their release, even if they are console only. I wonder if the Rachel neno will come with the EU version though? Or I may import to ensure I get that neno xD I really want her to travel around with me in my shirt pocket.

Death Awaits First 20 episodes were boring to get through of the anime I thought, shin took forever to die but then I guess it got better as it went on from that point onwards. Overall it was worth watching I thought

I've only done a gif or two at college using Flash. I'm sure there is a program out there if you look around that'll allow you to make them and may be you don't have to pay for. Sorry I'm not much help with where you can find such programs though, I cba to make these sort of things out of College so I don't know. Just search around is all I can say.

Updated the Notable Japanese Rachel Player Rankings for this week. (04/14/13 GMT+1 18:19) I've made and added the Key for the character names. I will change the names but it will be a slow process as I want to make sure I change the names without causing any problems to the links themselves. So I'll change the names throughout the week. EDIT 3: Changed all the names. Due to this new change, I now have 5000 characters more to work with so I can fit more links into one post Also, Apologies for taking ages to get round checking out links, been busy with college work and what I'm going to do after I finish College xD So I'm running slow checking the links. I don't mind if people put full names of the characters when posting links, I can always change them later. Also the light near the computer I use has gone so I can't check things out much in the evenings, my eyes can't cope well in the dark. Another EDIT: Updated the Notable Japanese Rachel Player Rankings (04/21/2013 GMT+1 18:08) Btw thought I'd put the Key here as well as the main page: [info=-Key of Character Names] Note: Still working my head around the tables and how I should make things presentable. If anyone wishes to suggest anything, I am open to suggestions. [TABLE=width: 250, class: GRID, align: left] Character Initials (2 Letters) Amane AM Arakune AR Azrael AZ Bang BA Bullet BU Carl CA Hakumen HA Hazama HZ Izayoi IZ Jin JN Kagura ?? Litchi LT Makoto MK Mu-12 MU Noel NO Nu-13 NU Platinum PT Rachel RC Ragna RG Relius RL Tager TG Taokaka TK Terumi ?? Tsubaki TB Valkenhayn VH [/TABLE] It'll take some time to get used to but if there are any problems we can always revert back to using full character names again and re-organise the main match ups post.

Makes sense as I wouldn't want to do accidental Lotus but knowing myself and nerves at times I'll probably end up doing BBL somehow xD @TD: I think strategy/tactics compendium is ok, you might want in brackets though (Mixups/Pressure) like the currently named thread just to reinforce the point that the thread will contain mixups and whatnot. People might see the words tactics and strategy similar to how you would go about fighting specific characters like the matchups sub board is for. I'm also thinking that the term mixups and pressure seem more like keywords people keep an eye out for. I may be wrong though but I thought I'd put down what was running through my mind and hopefully provide some feedback to your question EDIT: I've put up the Key in the Rachel Video Thread for each characters 2 letters (initials/abbreviations or whatever you wish to call them) that now represent them in video links that are posted.

I find it helps to time a little for when you go to press J.2C for if you do J.2C without using J.236A before hand, I find I sometimes do J.2C too early and my opponent doesn't get hit in the right place in the air... if what I remember is correct. (This might be me talking a load of crap but I find it helps, may be I'm just used to it or something. Apologies in advance if I make no sense xD )

Thank you everyone for your input on how you would like to see the names in the Video Thread links be presented, it seems most would like to see 2 letters used instead of shortened names. That's fantastic, even better for saving on the 50,000 character limit space. I thought it best to gather views/opinions before making any changes, as I would like to make the thread presentable to how you are all most suited/comfortable with. At the end of the day, you are the guys who will be using the Video Thread I will begin changing the names soon. Probably on Sunday when I do the ranking updates etc. For now, taking into account the use of 2 letters for the playable character names. I will be creating a key which will state which 2 letters belong to whom, for example "JN = Jin". The 2 letters for each playable character will be based on the official listings. Amane, Azrael, Bullet and Izayoi will have their 2 letters based on how the smiles (Ball) list has them, for example "AM = Amane".

Just to let you guys know, Tales series related. According to the latest issue of "Games Master", you'll have to wait till the year "21013" for "Tales of Xillia". 21013 isn't an error on my part btw. (I don't buy it btw, but I flick through it out at my College's Library when a new issue appears. I don't like magazines much, I gave up on them)
