Carl having the qualities to become an observer might be a reason why Amane is chasing after him.

Let's not start up random crack guesses with no basis again shall we...? Black Beast is known to be a power from the Boundary itself, and was also known to be an avatar of destruction in the past. And it is explained that the current Black Beast is a failed product of the Kusanagi, where the Azure Grimoire and the Murakumo failed to fuse.

And not only Rachel, but even Hazama had said that Carl is useless right now but he will have a great role to fulfill in the future.

It's not confirmed or is it obvious that the Girl (Monster) is Nu. Right now there are only two prime suspects that match the description and they are Nu and Izanami. It's just that both them have a bit of a contradiction towards the description given by Rachel in her story. Black Beast can't really apply to being an imprisonment considering Nu had become the Black Beast with Ragna out of her own will. This is the contradiction that exists for her when compared to the story given by Rachel. Izanami I already explained her contradiction towards the Story, that she isn't a Monster that devours the world. If you consider Nu and Izanami's contradictions when compared to the description given, Izanami's contradiction has a more impact towards her being the lesser suspect as the story outright tells that The Girl was a monster who devours the entire world, and because Izanami is a mismatch towards that description she has a more higher chance in NOT being the Girl described in the story. Master Unit itself might be a prison for the possessor but that's not confirmed so can't really make much theories out of it. But considering Rachel does say that Amaterasu is a Girl, it does probably mean someone is inside that huge mecha object. Terumi seems to be able to do physical attacks even as a spiritual body as proven by his attack towards the church, although it is possible that it was just through the use of Uroboros that he was able to do physical attacks. (Celica was killed as Terumi had punctured her neck by using Uroboros). Also, to continue on with the subject on Carl, there is one thing I forgot to mention. In Relius' Story Mode, he mentions that Carl has the capabilities to become an Observer.

Amaterasu is not a monster that devours the world, and if Amaterasu was, it would mean she would already be dead long time ago due to being killed. The description for the writer is that it was a girl who was imprisoned in a jail. The Jail may depict the Boundary itself or it is possible that the huge obstacle shown in CP which is shown to be Amaterasu is actually like a jail that keeps its possessor inside it. Also in the game, the girl who was the writer of the story and the girl who was the monster were differentiated. So they are different individuals. Nu has one of the characters with the most death flags in the entire Blazblue cast due to her characteristics.

It is unknown how long Amanohokosaka had run for Imperator. It is known that they are a imperial family, but it is not known how long they had political powers for the past 150 years since Mei's time. Fact is, Tenjou had hidden the fact that he was the imperator, which Hazama took advantage of by calling him a rebel by putting Izanami as the new imperator. Your second sentence doesn't really make sense. Please write proper grammar...

Rachel never really showed much care towards Nu at all. Only thing that is confusing is why she had involved herself with Nu when Nu was dreaming in the Boundary. You could just say she was just "checking" upon the actor, but I don't think it was really something that simple. There probably was another reason. It may have to do with why Rachel had involved herself with both Noel and Nu altogether in the past.

Only thing Rachel does to Nu is that: 1. She tells Nu that she is dreaming in her arcade/story mode personally (CT) 2. Tells Nu that her face is becoming "annoying" to see, while saying that Nu should really hold back considering her obsession towards Ragna. (CT, after she defeats Nu in battle) 3. Wonders what Nu wants so badly (CP, before fighting) 4. Tells Nu that her obsession is something to be admired of, but that Nu doesn't have any place to be and tells her to go back to the bottom of hell (CP). Sometimes their lines can be taken seriously as a sort of hint for future stories but sometimes they don't have to be taken that seriously. Only time Rachel calls Nu by her name is Ragna's Gag reel but that's it and that's not canon. =w=; Anyhow this is how it is: Amaterasu (Writer of the Story), wants to make a story where a "Girl" who is also a monster itself, to be saved by a certain hero. However the Hero never hears the girl's pleas and just kills her. Because she is a monster. Only "Heroes" I can think of in such case are Jin and Hakumen, and their "The Dark One must be destroys" statement proves it that they will in the end destroy the evil no matter what, because it is a "dark one" and they know it is a "monster", which will destroy/devour the world. We know that the only "monster" that devours the world is the Black Beast, and the only "Girl" to become a Monster that devours the World is Nu. So she would be put as the 1st suspect of being the "Girl (Monster who devours the world)" Terumi and Mu-12/Noel tried to become one but it failed since Noel rejected Terumi, so that's out of the equation. Although Izanami is technically a monster in terms of power, and that Saya's vessel is captured by her, Izanami isn't really a "monster that devours the world". I would put Izanami as a 2nd suspect of being the "Girl (Monster who devours the world)". Amaterasu is looking for a hero that "saves" and "rescues". Ragna falls into that category since he is fighting to save and protect right now. It might be the main role that the Guardian of the Azure is given. However Ragna probably did not meet the requirements or condition to become the Guardian of the Azure just yet, so we can't say for sure right now. But as an opposite, Ragna also falls under that category where he tries to kill the Girl who is to become a monster (Nu), because as you guys have seen, he never heard Nu's pleas or anything and just tried to kill/destroy her no matter what. And that only ended as his downfall which ended the "Story" and time rewinded back to AD 2100. Only contradiction is that 1. Ragna has never defeated Nu in CT timeline 2. Ragna would never become a "Hero" even if he defeated Nu (although it might have him avoid fusing with her becoming the Black Beast) Although Ragna and Nu's battle is similar to how Amaterasu's story goes, there are contradictions when compared to Amaterasu's story that I don't think CT was the key towards Amaterasu's story at the time. They may have been similar but they weren't exactly the same and were pretty much off how it went in Amaterasu's story. Ragna is no hero nor does he become one. Jin and Hakumen falls under that category more.

In case you guys forgot, Lambda was stuck in the lab nearly dead until Tager salvaged her. So it's impossible that Amane met Lambda. He wasn't even in Kagutsuchi either. As for Ragna thinking Lambda was Nu (which he was right about), he did in both Arcade Mode and the Anime, but not the Story Mode. This just a hypothesis, but what if Amane identified Nu as "Girl (Monster)", which he saw/met before in previous timeloops when Amaterasu's previous "Story" failed due to it meeting the permanent ending where the "Girl (Monster)" died? Because as I said before, the only girl that matches the description of the "Girl (Monster that devours the entire world)" is Nu because of her being the Heart of the Black Beast, where she is inside it. Also the fact the only Monster known to devour the world is the Black Beast. Also guys, I added a History Timeline page on the blazblue wiki, which I translated off the Chronophantasma Material Collection. http://blazblue.wikia.com/wiki/History That's what I think too. If I had to guess, if Remix Heart characters are going to be added into the Next Story, then Remix Heart has to end first. That's what happened for Phase Shift and Chronophantasma, where Phase Shift ended first on 2012 Sept 20th before Chronophantasma Arcade was released on November 21, 2012, which was when Hazama's Arcade mode revealed Celica appearing.

Amane seriously doesn't seem to give it his all when he fights, where he is always playful and such. He even says that Ragna is no match for him. And I am not too sure if I mentioned this before, but apparently Amane knows Nu. If you see Amane's line with Nu, he says "Haven't I seen you somewhere before...? But this killing intent... You aren't a nobody are you?". I wish it is covered in the future why Amane knows Nu. (Don't bring up Es, because that is not the case) But Amane also considers that Azure has nothing to do with himself when he fights against Mu-12. But that's expected as he is an observer. If you also consider the fact Amane's power is related to time (Like how his Astral makes the victims turn into their younger/previous selves), it is possible he is related to the Sankishin somehow. As for the next story though, I think it is unlikely that there will be totally unknown brand new characters being added into the game. If new characters are going to be added, I would say characters from Remix Heart being added into the main story is more likely, but that will have to wait till Remix Heart itself is over.

Carl will definitely go through a change, whether it is good or bad. And I stated this before weeks ago, but Rachel has stated Carl does have some kind of role to fulfill but he has not done so yet (Well he barely had any relevance towards the main plot at all). He probably has to meet some kind of requirement or condition and then use the knowledge and skill he gains from it to fulfill the role he is given.

That's an interesting theory. I mean I knew that there was a good reason why Amane went after Carl so much, and I was sure that it's not just because he is a bishonen. If Carl does earn "education" from Relius and learns some technology, then I think that might be possible.

Relius also mentioned that Makoto has become a good soul. Even Makoto wondered in Episode 11 what kind of role she can have since she doesn't have any special powers or title like Jin and Noel XD;; As for Litchi and Arakune... I seriously can't tell how things are going to flow for them =w=;; For one thing they barely had any relevance towards the main plot or had much story in the CP that not many improvements or such were shown for them... More like we don't even know what happened to Arakune after Episode 8 of Sector Seven and Episode 12 of Chronophantasma... Toxin just stop. stop

There is one thing that interests me. Terumi said that Nine "found out too much" and that it was one of the reason why she was killed. I wonder what she had found out? The truth behind the world? If Phantom is freed and becomes Nine again, I wonder if she can use her knowledge to help freeing the world from its current system, by cooperating with Kokonoe, mother and daughter. There are two ways Phantom/Nine can go for. 1. Stays as Phantom all the way and gets in the protagonists' way until she is defeated then becomes free 2. Becomes freed midway in the story and joins the team and supports them using her knowledge. May live on or die depending on how the story goes. I am more wondering how much Amane will be relevant towards the story. I mean I can tell he is an observer like Rachel but unlike her, he doesn't really involve himself. He has given some slight advices towards characters but that's about it.

Toxin to my ignore list. I had it with his fail theories with no basis at all where it's not even referenced from the official sources. Terumi gave Saya Yukianesa? I ALREADY SAID THIS BUT TERUMI COULD NOT ENTER THE CHURCH'S AREA AT ALL DUE TO HIM BEING A SPIRITUAL BODY HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY THIS. Forget it. Had it with your fail posts. Bye.

Yeah it really leads towards her being the main suspect but I want more detail on it. We know that out of jealousy, Jin was going to kill Saya, then she just gave him the Yukianesa. That's all we know right now. I wanted more detail on that. Usually in a novel, writers sometimes write down the character remembering the past in detail when they go emotional or betrayed about a certain character because he/she was acting weirdly at the time, so I hope that happens. For example, I hope the novel will say after Ragna says the "DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT!", where it says like for example, "Ragna remembered... Before that hellish attack... that Saya was totally not herself at the time and she had a certain face looking at him at the time..." Something like this for example really. I was wondering if the novel could just provide more details on things that ended really vaguely in the game.

Argh, one more day till Continuum Shift novel release. I hope it covers some more details on stuff that were missing in the game. For example, I hope the novel covers a more detailed story on about Jin's story about him receiving Yukianesa. Also about what Ragna meant by "DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT DAMN IT! Is that how it was? So that's how it was Saya?!" Right now it's a theory and hypothesis that Ragna was concluding that Saya was indeed not acting herself before the tragedy, but I hope the novel turns that into a fact by covering more details. I am more wondering if even the novel will use that "Noel feels pain after seeing Izanami" part that was in the anime. If it does, I hope it explains something about it, and if not, I hope that can be covered in the CP novel in the future. I hope the novel also has more Ragna x Lambda QwQ Looking by Lambda being in her cape and such XP Gotta wait for the official novel release and gotta wait for someone to scan or summarize it... T__T Stop it... just stop it... Ragna getting a 2nd form? WHAT? From the soul what? PROOF? There was no such thing ever being depicted or shown EVER. No no no, It's not that Nu "carries" a part of Saya's soul. It's just that she was influenced by it when she was cloned. That's it. Get your fact straight already. WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT'S EVEN INSIDE RAGNA OR KNOW ANY BASIS ON IF THERE IS EVEN ANYTHING "SPECIAL" INSIDE. NOTHING WAS SHOWN AT ALL. IZANAMI BEING A GODDESS DOESN'T EVEN LINK TOWARDS HOW JIN OBTAINED YUKIANESA........................ THERE IS NO PROOF OF HOW AND WHEN IZANAMI POSSESSED SAYA SO STOP WITH THE WHOLE THING. This is why we are saying you are only spewing up crack and unintelligent theories. DO YOU EVEN UNDERSTAND JAPANESE? HAVE YOU LOOKED AT ALL THE OFFICIAL SOURCES? tvtropes and fan-made sites aren't a place where you get your information to base things off. The way you talk doesn't seem like you have even looked at the entire Chronophantasma Story Mode at all or even understood what the characters even said in there, and are just basing things off short summaries made by fans in tvtropes and some fan-made websites... And speak proper English already.

Stop double posting... And what's up with all the unintelligent and crack theory posts...? The detailed name of the monster is "The monster that devours the world", which is doesn't really match how Izanami is :/ It pertains more towards The Black Beast as it is known as the monster that devours the world.

Rachel lost the powers as an observer due to "joining up the stage", where she even lost the ability to use Teleportation magic at all pretty much. I think that the Guardian of the Azure is a mandatory required being that is needed in the world, it's just that the one to become it needs to go through several stages of trials or meet a certain condition to become it. I also think that the one that Amaterasu has been looking for is the Guardian of the Azure, just that none showed up in all of her time loops. Terumi is dead for sure. Hazama however, I doubt he died just stabbing each other with Platinum was way too vague of a death. I am not too sure if Izanami can observe what Hazama and Relius are doing, but if I saw this right, considering Izanami said "Hazama and Relius aren't coming huh... Well it's fine. Their contract with me was to end by the banquet's end. But there is the truth that they did serve me. So next time we meet, I shall give them a good death." I think it depicts that Hazama may still be alive. But considering the mystery behind Terumi trying to become a Black Beast, that needs to be covered. But I am not too sure how that will be explained if Terumi is dead. Rachel might be a source to know about it. There is the Life Link between Hazama and Noel still, although I am not too sure if it still exists between them. As I have been saying, the only one that has the qualifications to become the Guardian of the Azure is Ragna. Jin and Hakumen are not qualified as they are "Eiyuu" and Power of Order, and as told by Rachel's story, Eiyuus were always the one who brought ruin towards Amaterasu's story by killing the "Girl (Monster)". Instead of trying to save her. Rachel said Ragna is needed for this world and he hasn't really done much to save the world from its current corrupt system just yet. He still has more roles to fulfill to free the world from the current system. But to do that he needs to fight Jin as he is the anti-body of the current world. I don't think that can be avoided. I am hoping that Carl and Relius become family again while Ada and Ignis become human again instead of dolls. I can see some hope where this does happen. Trinity... I know she is a soul bound to the Nox and all, but... yeah she is a goner for sure... But it would be sad as she did love Kazuma (If it wasn't for Terumi, there was the possibility that Kazuma would walk the path of good)... I would love to see her love being fulfilled in the end but from the current situation, I am seriously not too sure... I hate to say this as a Nu fan, but yeah Nu has barely gotten any development at all. When she was Lambda, she showed some hope but that became pointless Lambda died and after the soul went back to her original body, she went back being yandere. But for sure as seen by her personality while being in Lambda, she isn't really that evil. It's just that she was a victim of torture done by the true evil, which were Relius, Hazama. Izanami probably took part as well. As for that stabbing at the end, I was sure that was Izanami's doing instead of Nu doing it on her own will kind of. Actually before all the programming and such, she didn't want to go killing each other with Ragna... She was longing for Ragna while crying... From my view, I think that saving Nu isn't that easy. She was programmed, tuned and adjusted to be corrupt and such, where if she is gonna be saved, she has to become freed from all that. Being in Lambda's body proved it, as Lambda's body wasn't programmed and made like how Nu was, where instead of a Yandere personality, Nu showed a kind personality as Lambda. If Ragna is going to save Nu, this is going to be more difficult than how Jin, Noel, and Makoto saved Tsubaki as for Tsubaki, she was only affected by Mind Eater and was only about half taken in. However for Nu, she went through 5 years of torture, experiments, adjustments, tuning, and programming, that she despises the world (Which was Hazama and Relius' aim as they must make the Murakumo Unit hate the world in order for them to destroy Amaterasu). I still see hope in her becoming saved, but that will depend on how the story flows. If she stays as Izanami no Tsurugi till the end, then she is bound to die one way or another. If Ragna faces Nu and does something similar to what Jin, Noel and Makoto did for Tsubaki, she might become able to be saved. I am not too sure about sacrifices, but the story Amaterasu is aiming for is where people are "saved" instead of "perishing", so the final story will probably have a good end. Before rebuilding the world, she needs to become freed from all the experiments, programming and adjustments done to her so her true personality can come out.

I would love to see that too 8D Ragna is the only one who actually has a harem =w=; (Including BL) Actually considering he has met Amaterasu before somehow, we don't know. Nope. She considers them the same.

*facepalm* That's not the topic we are talking about here... We are talking about Yukianesa =_=

O right, yeah, now that I think about it, how did Yukianesa which was in Seven's hand get into Saya's hands? The fact revealed in Volume 1 of CT novel was that Ragna and Celica never even saw Yukianesa until Jin had it. Saya gave it to him. There was a barrier around the church, and as explained at the time, Terumi did not have a physical body, where even though he did have Uroboros, as a spiritual body, he could not go into that barrier. However, Saya gave Jin the Yukianesa, then Jin destroyed the Barrier from the inside, where thanks to that, Terumi was able to enter the area. The mystery behind the attack is getting more mysterious.

Well Bang didn't get any for his b-day for sure lol.

I had to deal with so much unintelligent posts made by a certain individual... =___=;; One more thing, Rachel said that Ragna is an individual who is "needed" for this world, so I doubt he will get killed or anything next game just because he went berserk because of Izanami. First thing that will probably happen in the next story is the protagonists saving Ragna from his current state, they then continue to go after Izanami. As for Nu... until it is revealed what happened to her in Episode 18... I can't make any speculations on her... Only thing I can wish is for her to become free from all evil... If she went with Izanami and Phantom in the end, then she will likely get in the protagonists' way again as Izanami no Tsurugi. If not and she went on her own, then it is likely that she will be traveling around alone, but considering her programming, it is highly likely that she went back to Izanami. If she went solo, I really don't know what she would be doing alone. I am more wondering if the synchronization with Noel would affect her in terms of soul, mind and personality somehow (instead of just copying the way she speaks), but that kind of thing will have to wait till next game if such theory can apply to her. Nine will likely be freed from Izanami. INB4 Kokonoe gets punished by Nine o3o I seriously can't tell whether Terumi/Hazama will appear next game. If at least Hazama is alive, it is possible that he will repent his evil ways (I mean Kazuma was not evil before.), but............... if he really died in Episode 18 then good bye Terumi/Hazama FOREVER (Good for me since I hate Terumi. Hazama's normal personality is good though). More like whether Terumi/Hazama is alive, they can't side with Izanami anymore, so Hazama is pretty much solo now even if he is alive. Not like he can go to Relius either since Relius is broken. I more see Relius getting influenced by Carl and Litchi kind of and repent his evil ways too. Although Carl says his father will pay for what he has done before, from the scene with Nirvana and Ignis, I started to see some hope that they will return to being a whole good family. Litchi and Arakune I seriously have no idea what will happen to them. If things go good, then both will be saved. I mean they barely had much relevancy towards the main plot that I don't know how things will roll for them =w=; I also doubt Platinum died (I mean come on, she is a loli... Children shouldn't die x_x), but I would say it is highly likely that Trinity herself really may have died. Jin and Hakumen...... I don't know about Jin, but Hakumen for sure will likely try to kill Ragna saying it is too late for him and saying "In the end, The Dark One must be Destroyed". This is just a personal wish, but I wish there was a Gag Reel in the next game where Izanami is involved 8D. Wish there was another Gag Reel where Nu was involved too... I wish she becomes Litchi's fashion/cosplay victim if she does... TwT Current cosplay victims are: Noel, Tsubaki, and Bullet, so... I hope the next victim is Nu QwQ If Mai does comes out in the next game though, it is more possible she will become the victim =w=; I also hope that in the next game, if there is another Spectacles of Eros gag reel, I hope it can affect girls who already have strong feelings towards Ragna :p If it does then we would see how Rachel would act if she was totally infatuated towards Ragna :p

You mean this?
