The first book is named Bloodedge Experience 上. 上 is given to the first book in a Trilogy or Duology. So Bloodedge Experience should be either two or three books. But that doesn't mean that Naoto's story would be over after two or three. There might be more in another name. That message was more towards the japanese readers than the english. There is very little overlap between the english and the japanese, so I don't believe it matters that much what the english community spoils about it. I'm more interested on why Mori is asking not to talk about the last two pages. Why so specific? I'm guessing it's something major that effects the entire franchise. Or does Mori do this a lot? The only time that I remember he doing it was at the release of Phase-Shift 4, when he wanted people to not talk about Kokonoe bringing Celica to the present as a chronophantsma.

It likely comes from Mori's twitter, https://twitter.com/zatuyoP/status/476555694070444034 . Also on twitter, Mori asks that people don't spoil about the things that happens on the last 2 pages in Bloodedge Experience.

It is younger Sechs', it was stated on the Masuzawa's twitter, but his hair color when he was younger was never shown in the game.

This was never posted, right? Ragna in a suit from Mori's twitter. And there is some new info about Bloodedge Experience. In Naoto's right eye there is the special ability "Hunter's Eye"(狩人の眼). Hunter's eye allow Naoto to see people's life force as numerical value. He has a childhood friend with the name Hayami Haruka(早見ハルカ). Raquel has an overwhelming Life force value, and she orders Naoto to get hold of the Azure.

You're right, they do turn golden when Rachel is using Tsukuyomi. Strange that I never noticed that... Her eyes should probably be red since she is a vampire. Clavis and Rachel's eyes are red, so probably all vampire's eyes are red. Also, looking at the finished cover and the unfinished, it looks like Naoto didn't change at all, but Raquel did quite a bit. Her face is from a complete different angle. And about the logo, why is the X completely different from the reset? Is it only for style or is there a reason?

Wait, Raquel's eyes are Orange/yellow? Weren't they red in the character design shown earlier? I wonder what's up with that...

It happens that it's read as Blazblue but written as either 蒼の魔道書(For Ragna's) or 碧の魔道書(For Terumi/Hazama's) in the text, but they are the fake ones. The real deal is the one written as 蒼炎の書 in the text.

Some art from Mori's twitter: Mori was told that you look 1,8 times cooler in a suit so he tested it with Jin. Mori thinks Jin only looks like a bad guy in it.

Ragna's Grimoire is a prototype for the Azure Grimoire, which is a portable cauldron with the main purposes to temper Kusanagi with the power of the boundary. Now about it being called a fake, it's a real Azure Grimoire, however the Azure Grimoire is a fake/imitation of BlazBlue(蒼炎の書, Book of the Azure Blaze). In other words, It's a real Azure Grimoire but a fake BlazBlue.

If there is going to be another anime, I hope it isn't CP. The story arc begun in CP isn't really over, and there was no scene I really want to see animated. I hope if there is going to be a new one that it's an adaption of Phase series. ... or Remix heart...

Looks like it's about XBLAZE(https://twitter.com/Bo_deWindt/status/464878195020292096), look at the responses, especially zackreese's.

Time is reset to the year 2100(The time-line refer it to Loop start point, Jin appeared in the past before 2100 and therefore Hakumen remembers from an earlier phase were Noel didn't survive), but why 2100? Maybe that is as far as Amaterasu can go back to or Amaterasu has only chosen that time because anything before is irrelevant and doesn't need to be altered. First thing, Read careful what Terumi says, the Prime Field met the Master Unit, that doesn't mean that it met the Amaterasu Unit, or maybe it did. In present Amaterasu Unit = Master Unit but has it always been like this? There sure wasn't a big golden satellite in the boundary when Master Unit was shown in XBLAZE. And someone is inside the Amaterasu Unit at the present, that point have been hammered in ones head in CP (the girl who write the story, going to "kill" her, as long as her memories is intact the world can be reconstructed). Now could that prime field be Amaterasu? Maybe, but I think there's to little info to make that decision. Amaterasu seems to work very hard to make the current world continue to exist and fight against never ending despair. Would a random doll that gained a soul and later almost get killed and dumped into the boundary have the motivations to do this for what feels like thousands of years?

The creation of Takamagahara-system went like this: Humanity dug up the Susanoo Unit, after futher digging they found a cauldron. Inside the Cauldron there is a space known as the Boundary, and it's proved that the Boundary effects the worlds time and space. The phenomena system "Takamagahara" is made to manage the Boundary, but the moment it tries to start a program they get an intervention from someone on it's self. After some investigation it's known that the one to make that Intervention is the Amaterasu Unit. Here's Terumi-sensei lecture from the CS LN volume 2: A story from a time long ago. At one time the humans found the boundary and a hole connecting to it, in other words a Cauldron. Going through the Cauldron they arrive to the boundary, a space filled with seithr. ... Here's a question to you Ranga-chan. What kind of substance is Seithr? 3,2,1, Time's over~~! Seithr is particular programs. It has existed in this world since the ancient past, and everything in this world is constructed from this substance. The Humanity that took a peak into the boundary found an existence that could freely control the seithr. That is Master Unit... A God! The Humanity wanted the power of god. For that reason they created the Dimensional Boundary Contact Prime Fields, and contacted the Master Unit. It was success and it took back lots of data from the Master Unit, but at the same time when it got in contact with the Master Unit it awoke the power to freely rewrite the phenomena... It got the "Power of the Eye" in it's body. To be able to rewrite the truth to however one who like, that's some power right? Obviously, Humanity got scared of the Prime Field that returned and dumped it into the boundary. However, they saved the Data, and with that data they created an artificial "Power of the Eye". And with the Power of God, they would control the phenomena themselves. And that was the... Takamagahara-System. Takamagahara-system would observe and modify humanity, the world, the phenomena to make sure that no matter what distortion that would be created, that the humanity would continue to exist for eternity. And because of that the "looping world" that existed until a few days ago occurred. You understand right? The humanity created a god. However, there is no need in this world for two gods that controls the phenomena. Don't you think so too? Off course the Takamagahara-System got to the same conclusion. To kill god a weapon is needed. And the material chosen for creating that weapon was the Dimensional Boundary Contact Prime Fields. So if Takamagahara tries to do something that Amaterasu doesn't like, it will block them since even tough Takamagahara does have a lesser version of the "Power of the Eye" it's no match to either Amaterasu or Noel. It wasn't until Izanami started to use the Takamagahara that it would become stronger than Noel yet weaker than Amaterasu. Takamagahara tries to do their best to kill Amaterasu so that they would be the only god and have full control over the phenomena, that's why they released Terumi from the boundary and they thought had full control over him, but Terumi was able to escape their attempts to reset Terumi by using Phantom's magic (Terumi said there methods to do the reset wasn't good enough) and used Izayoi to make things they couldn't see.

I get the feeling that it's like that. It would at least make something that conflicts with each other being solved. That is, Takamagahara is responsible for the loop and the girl(Amaterasu) is the one who is rewriting the "story" over and over again. So Takamagahara would make the reset by destroying something that Amaterasu doesn't want to be destroyed and therefore Amaterasu starts to rewrite(rewinds time to the year 2100) the story again.

What says that Takamagahara can reset the world a day earlier? Their method isn't that simple, they brute force it by nuking Kagetsuchi with a weapon that can at earliest be fired every 4 years. What's shown that they can do is to reset time by nuking and shift observing a phenomena during the activation of Continuum Shift. Also they wait until the very last second until they reset, this is what they say at the end of the CT LN volume 1: The outbreak of THE BEAST(ザ・ビースト, Za Biisuto) is confirmed. The System shifts towards phase 298. --- Arrival axis is 2099, 12, 31, Japan. --- Phenomena error is 1 in 7200... Error in last phenomena was 1 in 400... Master Unit's completion is 267189... Starting modification... System have been reset normally. --- Takamagahara-System begins observing phase 299.

From what I understand, that's how it is. However there is a problem with that and that is, what happens if Takamagahara would be able to reset time when Noel saved Ragna? No Black Beast in the next phase? Or would the time-line not care about it and create a new one with no origin since the Black Beast is too important for the Time-line and must exist? If the Black Beast that appears in 2100 is Ragna and Nu and it is it's first appearance, then what was that Black Beast that appeared thousands of years before CT? Hopefully it will be clearer in the next game or in some LN, but what's known is the time-line is reset so that it could counter the reappearances of the Black Beast in present time.

From how it sounds, if Takamagahara didn't reset/rewind time, the Black Beast would appear in the present time instead of in the past. The boundary is not part of the time-line really, it's outside of it. So they leave the time-line, the time-line is reset to the past, the Black Beast appears again but it's the past now.

First, the Embryo is written with the kanji's 蒼の胚(ao no hai, Azure's embryo) so it's safe to assume that the Embryo is going to be born as an "Azure"(Blazblue). Now, for the lost part, the only thing I can think of that he means about that is the events of the end of Xblaze, unless he talks about something that has yet to be shown. Spoiler for Xblaze:

The loop is for trapping the Black Beast, that's what the MC's at least says: BBCP:MCII: The system that is managing the world, Takamagahara, from this moment is rewinding time to the year 2100 to prevent the resurrection of the Black Beast from those two's fusion. BBCP:MC: Blazblue Calamity Trigger is in the truth a story about a world in a loop. In order to prevent the appearance of the Black Beast, the time has repeated itself countles times from the year 2100-2199. This is from the CT LN volume 2: That giant's light was a way to force reset the world when the world for some reason didn't loop. Takamagahara is more or less using the same methods as the Imperator, however their reason for it is different. Takamagahara want to ensure the humanity's survival in a secure and stable way (This world is anything but stable) and the Imperator wants to revert the world back to it's true form, a world of death.

The time-loops was there to trap that the Black Beast and make sure it cannot progress further in the time-line. Takamagahara-System didn't have that much power, Amaterasu was blocking them from doing certain things, so they wanted her dead and to activate Doomsday and rebuild the world to the shape they wanted it to be. By shooting Take-mikazuchi, Kagutsuchi will be destroyed resulting in time being Rewinded to the year 2100 (Didn't something similar happened when Jin died?). Takamagahara decided to enter next phase since in their eyes, nothing had changed, but since Rachel stopped the beam, Takamagahara decided to enter Continuum Shift instead, even if they wanted, they can't shoot Take-mikazuchi until 4 years later.

For the moment yes, no more time loops and resets, past cannot be changed. However, currently Doomsday is in progress, the world is getting a complete reset and the Successor of Azure will rebuild the world. So I think there can be three ways for this to end. 1, the Doomsday is put to stop and they will try to revert/save as much that is possible. 2, Amaterasu re-creates the world and the world is back in it's CT loop. 3, A completely new world is created (such as Izanami's world of death, or something else).

That's the entire point with the "Party". They use Phenomena Intervention to create "conflict"(people get restless, start to fight) and Amaterasu removes that conflict by rewinding time. However the more Amaterasu has to rewind time the "closer" she must get to the present world, and once she is "close" enough, They open Nemesis Horizon and pulls Amaterasu to the present world.
