The 5th season of AniClash, the premier online anime fighter tournament series, will conclude with what guarantees to be our biggest and best event yet: AniClash Prime 2! Going down this July 8th and 9th, this multi-stream netplay major will see classic AniClash competitors and newcomer alike vie tooth and nail for the series' biggest prize prize pool to date, currently sitting--at the time of this writing--at a grand total of $432! This was made possible largely due to a plethora of incredibly generous cash donations from members of our community, and many thanks go out to all those who were so kind as to support this event in that way. For the uninitiated, here is a quick rundown of the baseline information that all those interested in competing in this event need to know: Q: What is AniClash Prime 2? AniClash Prime 2 is an online BlazBlue: Central Fiction tournament being held July 8th - July 9th, 2017, the sequel to last year's smash hit AniClash Prime. The tournament will be held through the Playstation Network, meaning that only players in possession of a Playstation 3 or Playstation 4 copy of BlazBlue: Central Fiction are eligible to enter. Q: Registration? Registration and information regarding such can be found on this page of the tournament's Official Website. Registrants will be manually placed into the participant list upon review and approval of their forms. As is listed on the registration page, currently have an entrant cap of 48 players in place, and with 21 of those slots being filled at the time of writing, it's highly recommended that all interested parties register as soon as possible. The tournament is free to enter. Q: Where do I attend the event? The event will take place over the course of 2 separate days--July 8th beginning at 6PM EST and July 9th beginning at 7PM EST--streamed across both AniClash's Official Twitch Channel and our secondary stream provided by prominent Anime FGC streamer Koefficient. Q: What are the payouts for AniClash Prime? At present the tournament will be boasting a cash prize of $432 total to be handed out to the tournament's top placers. This number will grow over time with donations and boosts from Insiders and the community; closer to the time of AniClash Prime 2 the exact final prize pool and payouts will be updated on the tournament's official website as well as in this thread. Stay tuned. Q: Is this tournament region locked? Yes. Only North American players will be allowed entry. Apologies to our international players, but with a siable cash prize on the line we must take extra measures to ensure matches are as lagless as possible. For the uninitiated, this page on the tournament's website also details tips and suggestions we recommend in your efforts to minimize lag in your matches, as well as our policies on disconnects and other such occurrences. Q: The website mentions something about a Day 0 event happening on July 7th? The official AniClash Prime 2 tournament doesn't begin until July 8th, indeed, but on July 7th--in preparation for the true event--we'll be holding an entire day of both casual and competitive BBCF programming for our community members and other interested parties to take part in. Participation in our Day 0 events is not at all required or directly tied to the actual Prime 2 tournament itself, but--if interested--information on Day 0 can be found here. Q: I have additional questions or comments regarding the tournament! Feel free to leave a comment or question in this thread; we'll get back to you as soon as possible. You can additionally contact us on our Twitter, join our community and ask around on our Discord server, or ask away during our regular numbered AniClash tournament streams, taking place nearly every Friday at 8PM EST on our Official Twitch Channel.

A bit late on the post this week, my apologies. But! We're once again returning tonight(Friday, 9/16), 8PM EST for our AniClash 42, the 2nd event of our 5th season and similarly the 2nd in our Final 4 series of BlazBlue: Chronophantasma Extend events! Registration can be found on both the event's Challonge Page and it's thread on the Official AniClash Website. Remember, special bonuses are awarded to all competitors registered on our website, so check out and make an account on our newly launched hub if you're so inclined. Our giveaway of a copy/download of BlazBlue: Central Fiction is also still active; the winner will be announced on September 30th, so make sure to secure your chance over at our website before it's too late! The stream, found at twitch.tv/anime_inspirations, will go live at around 6:00 PM EST for pre-tournament friendlies, with the main event beginning at 8:10 PM EST. Hope to see you there!

Indeed we are. In the grand scheme of the community, fairly few players actually have access to the Central Fiction demo as things stand, and the demo won't have consistently available netplay. We'd be closing off much of the ready and willing playerbase and likely doing more bad than good for our events at this moment, plus we always planned on having a final few farewell tournaments for CPE. With how surprisingly well last night's event turned out despite the present hype around the CF demo within the community, we're confident we've made the right choice. Once Central Fiction launches on the 6th of next month, though, we will indeed be upgrading and it will be the game used in all of our events from then on.

We're officially live for a pre-tournament friendlies stream at twitch.tv/anime_inspirations! Feel free to stop on by in-game and in the chat to prep before the event, and don't forget to register over at our Challonge Page before it begins at 8:10 PM EST! There was previously an issue with the our challonge page that prevented some users from registering, but it has now been fixed and is open for sign-ups. Hope to see you there!

AniClash returns this Friday, September 9th with the inaugural event of its evolutionary 5th season! This tournament marks the first of our final 4 BlazBlue: Chronophantasma Extend events before the launch of the upcoming BlazBlue: Central Fiction. The stream will kick off with an hour of friendlies starting off at 7:00 PM EST, with the event itself kicking of at 8:10 PM EST on our twitch channel twitch.tv/anime_Inspirations. Registration is available through our Challonge Page as well through our newly launched Official AniClash Website. While both methods are perfectly acceptable for registration, we highly recommend those interested register on our official website, as doing so yields a number rewards tied to that website that can help to enrich your entire Aniclash experience! We're also holding a raffle for a free copy of BlazBlue: Central Fiction on that same website; don't miss out on your chance to net this upcoming release free of charge! Visit the first post or the above challonge/website links for all the details, rules and regulations of this event. Hope to see you there.

I'd imagine it's likely a bit of both, personally. Some of you may be aware that this account runs a netplay tournament series for BlazBlue called AniClash, and one of our series organizers created a new video on the Central Fiction dub issue that you can find here. It's already gotten a fair amount of exposure from various figures within the anime FGC on social media; please do feel free to share it with fellow fighting game enthusaists, the voice actors themselves, Aksys, etc. maintain momentum around this movement if you're so inclined.

After a hiatus following the rousing success that was AniClash Prime, the premier online anime fighter tournament series is set to enter a new age this September 3rd! AniClash Season 5 will see a bevy of alterations and improvements made to the series' tournament formula that raises the stakes and exponentially increases the real-life rewards for our competitors, and the launch of our official forums will offer an incredibly involved, engaging and interconnected social experience that will tie together all aspects of the AniClash ecosystem. With in-depth overviews of both of these exciting new series developments, a premiere of a brand new episode of our AniClash Countdown Series on our official YouTube channel--youtube.com/animeinspirations--and information on how you can win a free copy of BlazBlue: Central Fiction courtesy of AniClash, this is an event you most definitely won't want to miss! Keep it locked on all of our social media outlets listed in the graphic above and make sure to tune in to our stream at twitch.tv/anime_inspirations during the afternoon of September 3rd to be there as AniClash undergoes a monumental evolution!

We're live for this weekend! Remember the deadline to register for AniClash Prime is 1 hour before the tournament begins, or Saturday July 2nd, at 5:30 PM EST. Additionally, the stream will be launched around ~1PM EST on Saturday July 2nd for friendlies/scheduled events/money matches (if interested). We're hoping this will be an extravagent and hype event on the closing chapter of Blazblue CP Extend. We have signups for Pre-Event Friendlies/Money Matches if anyone is interested.
