Sorry, I didn't mean to say that you was incorrect or anything like that. Only tried to be a more clear why Raquel is used instead of Rachel if confusion with some would arise.

Yeah, looking up ラケル(Rakeru) will lead to Rachel, however, if one would call her Rachel, people would believe that it's pronounced the same as the other Rachel. So Raquel would be better in my opinion, since it's closer to the pronunciation of the katakana as well as Raquel is a Portuguese or Spanish variation of the name Rachel.

Keep it in the correct order, Ragna>Naoto>Touya. But yeah, Naoto doesn't only look like a mix of Ragna and Touya, his name is a mix of theirs as well. And to make it clear, the characters names from Bloodedge Experience is Kurogane Naoto (黒鉄ナオト, the meaning of the kanjis in the surname is Black Iron) and Raquel Alucard(ラケル＝アルカード)

Phase series: Phase 0 & Phase-shift 1-4. 5 volumes BlazBlue Series: CT 1-2 & CS 1-2. 4 Volumes. Bloodedge Experience: First volume announced. So, 10 books for the moment.

I don't remember when I last laugh so hard after I understood the joke. But I also think that I laughed for the wrong reason.

She has long blond hair, red eyes, a small body but try to give the impression she is older and a black ribbon that gives the impression of a rabbit's ears. She gives strong impression of Rachel, and I don't think that it's a coincidences. Rachel is a Chronophantasma, i.e. she got her future changed (unless she is an exception, but I would believe that is more towards Amane). So it's possible this is Rachel before she become a chronophatasma and took the title of Tsukuyomi, maybe even before she was Amatsumugi and helped. I agree. I won't say anything about this before more info is given.

Want to know more about it, plan to read it. What else is it to say about it at this stage? Not much info has really been given about it. The art work at least shows that it isn't about the current Ragna that we know about, but will likely have some connection due to the Bloodedge name. What can it be about? Is it Rachel and is that guy who will become Ragna? Or does it take place after BB4? Will it show the reason why the evil will disappear if Rachel dies?

About him looking like Touya? To me, he looks like the middle ground between Ragna and Touya. On the unfinished cover and the lower monochrome head, he looks more like Ragna to me. But his hair color, ahoge (but it's longer here) and eyes reminds me more about Touya.

Bad quality since it's from Blue Radio. First artwork from the new LN series, Bloodedge Experience. Edit: Here is also the Logo that was shown yesterday on Arc Live

Episode 9 http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/1398320234

Due to some trouble, the old link for Arc Live doesn't work. Here is the new one: http://live.nicovideo.jp/gate/lv177018532 starts in 2 hours.

Let's see. In CT, it was never shown or said how Terumi looked like. In Extend, it was this image (https://i.imgur.com/phDXceC.png). And in the LN of BBCT, he was described as his ghost form when he killed Celica, and in front of Ragna, it was always described as shadowy man. Also, Ragna never recognized Hazama, it wasn't until Terumi talked that Ragna knew it was Terumi. The same was for Celica, she recognized Terumi the very moment he talked. It isn't clear, but Terumi complained about Celica's barrier that he couldn't get near since he didn't have a body.

No, that conversation is in CS, after the observation/recognition. It made the merge possible (or at least better) but the mind eater is still in the way. There wasn't a merge (or there was an even worse one) and that's why Terumi is free to move as a ghost in CT, but in CS he must be killed. Also, in the novels, Terumi was in his ghost form when he attacked the church (Man like a shadow, one eye and a red crescent moon shaped mouth that doesn't move). And Hazama was never Terumi in CT, it wasn't until after the observation he went Terumi mode. Terumi has been a ghost ever since Takamagahara released him from the boundary, they only released the ghost body.

To "anchor" his existence onto the world, Before that, he barely existed thanks to Ragna and Kokonoe's hatred towards him and Takamagahara's observation of him. Also his merge with Hazama isn't perfect. This is dialog about it from CS vol.1 novel: Relius: It looks like your merge with the vessel isn't perfect. Terumi: Tsk... you see that. That isn't fun. Relius: I prepared that vessel. I can see the condition of the thing that I made. ... it is due to that magic. The remnants from the Mind Eater on your soul is hindering. Terumi: You don't have to tell me, I know that... Seriously, give me a break, that shitty bitch. It's such a persistent curse, just what one could expect from the Genius Witch Nine of the Six Heroes. Well, it is how it is, nothing to do about it. It is a strange feeling, but it doesn't get in the way... But more importantly, Kagutsuchi.

About Terumi wanting to become the Black Beast. First, it was the Sector Seven that tried to temper the Black Beast by using the method that Relius taught them. And Terumi(Hazama?) would be the body and Noel as the heart. But did Terumi really want to become a Black Beast? Even, as you said, Nu didn't know the reason why he would want to. Couldn't it be simply that Terumi tried to make Kusanagi while tricking the Sector Seven to think that they would make a Black Beast? Which failed due to Noel resisting the fusion due to having Saya's memories (who hates Terumi) and Takamagahara firing Take-mikazuchi on ibukido.

The Black Beast is when the fusion between a Azure Grimoire and a Murakumo Unit fails. It was never the desired result. The Black Beast is simply the Azure Grimoire going berserk and draining all souls it can touch while taking form of a monster. It was one of the steps of creating Kusanagi, how ever since Noel was a Prime Field with the Azure inside of her she could temper without the need of an Azure Grimoire.

While the Black Beast (Ragna + Nu) comes from the earlier phase (let's say, fall into the cauldron in phase 50 and appears in phase 51) Ragna got sent into phase 0 by Rachel, the very first phase. That's why there is such a big paradox. Where did Ragna come from. So the jacket Ragna has been given in all phases are CP Ragna's jacket.

Before Ragna goes back in time, there is a giant paradox/problem in the time-line, from where does "Bloodedge" come from. Due to this, the time-lines ae very loose and can be changed. When Ragna goes back in time, the paradox is solved, the "Bloodedge" has a origin and thus the time-lines becomes firm and can't be changed. In other words, the past can't be changed any more, and what will happen in the future will happen.

Library: Over a thousand of years old Vampire that has watched over humanity's history from a hidden castle. Former head of Alucard Family. Valkenhayn's first master and Rachel's parent. He was kind and gentle man, and he wished for a peaceful future for all living things. However at the same time he knew all of humanity's light and darkness, and he grieved over his powerlessness since even though he could see all phenomenons, he could do nothing but to spectate. Even if his aging is strange, the more strange thing I wonder about (unless I'm forgetting something) is how he died. The last thing known about him is that he sealed Terumi inside that room. So, how did he die? Age? Murdered? Accident? Stress from the sealing? About his aging. Since Rachel inherited the Tsukuyomi, maybe Clavis had it before, and it was the thing that made him not age, and once he made Rachel inherit it, he started to age. The Tsukuyomi is after all The Time Protector. Maybe it protects it's users time as well (non aging).

More or less something like painkillers. They are meant to reduce the burden on the body when using stronger and bigger abilities.

Izayoi is the newest weapon that was made with the technology used during the war against the Black Beast(or something very similar) thousands of years ago. And it's the prototype for the Murakumo that the Murakumo Units are using. It has two known forms, the sealed armament(the shield towards observers) and Zero Type(the weapon against observers). The Murakumo Units do have one thing similar to Izayoi, and that is that they are protected from Observers, they are immune to phenomena Intervention, which include the Master Unit's one as well. The "Kusanagi" must have three abilities, 1, to find the Master Unit inside the boundary. 2, Be immune to it's power. 3, be able to destroy it.

Does the Black Beast really have a physical presence making it possible for it to rip the clothes? Isn't it only big pile of seithr swallowing everything it come in contact with? There is also the thing that Ragna does have his sword and jacket when he is inside the Black Beast. He protects Celica from Beasts created from Celica's memory and Ragna kills Nu by striking her with his sword. So he somehow got hold of them.

After some thinking, I realized one thing, It's about Ragna's jacket and sword. As we know, Ragna goes back in time in CP, hands over the jacket to Celica and Jubei picks up Ragna's sword after Ragna jumps into the Black Beast. Celica then has the sword and Jacket until Jubei gives them to Ragna after Ragna's training with Jubei. Ragna later fall into the cauldron with Nu during CT and becomes the Black Beast and appears in the year 2100. Doesn't this mean there are 2 jackets and 2 swords during the Dark War? Bloodedge has one of the Jackets and Swords, and inside the Black Beast there is the other Jacket and Sword. So couldn't Ragna just had found the Jacket and Sword he used in the Climax, when he was inside the Black Beast those 3 years?

Wait, I think I know the miss, it's the position of the No. 5, it's supposed to be over the emblem, not under. http://i.imgur.com/rROZTi7.jpg also. it's No 5, not No, 05.

A random kaka for the moment. She is one of the kaka clan's warrior. She is traveling around the world like Tora and Tao. Tao calls here Momo-nee(Big sis Momo).
