His role is indeed huge in the story, and from what I heard, he's even One of the Ten Sage, literally. Not just one of, he's actually ONE, leader of the ten sage. That mean his magical prowess is nothing to sneeze at, I wonder how many trick does he still have up his sleeve.

Be careful with those soul theory, eventually someone will mention Naoto and everything will explode (or implode) on itself. ... oops ...

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it possible for a lone soul to become a core of a Nox if certain conditions are met? Tenjo is an example. Rachel said that he have a "noble soul" and thus enough to become the core of the Rettenjo

The world must be really turning to shit if we need that many Counter Guardian people with Power of Order around. But seriously, what the hell is the Power of Order anyway? where is it come from? Everyone acknowledge it but everything about it seem pretty vague. I'm not sure even Archer Hakumen know the detail.

Is that Izayoi by any chance the one from Hakumen's line? Oh wait, Nu killed her ... or did she? Blazblue characters aren't very good at staying dead...

You mean what ELSE is Ragna the Bloodedge? He's already a lot of something, his right arm and eye assimilating the Azure already make him part Ars Magus, his right arm is mechanical, he could even be part Vampire due to Rachel biting him. I'm surprise he's still considered human at this point, it's like the theseus ship paradox, how much can you replace until it's not what it is anymore?

But now that Hazama and Terumi are back together with Hazama in charge, I have a feeling that they're a bit of a wild card right now. Since according to Relius's extend gag reel (non-canon of course) Hazama can actually be a decent guy if he want to. But alas, it could be all just wishful thinking on my part.

That stage is called "Judgement Day" so ... yeah ...

Oh yeah, it was suppose to be a one-way-soul-disintegrating-portal-to-hell. But after Ragna, Hakumen, Trinity, Nine, Nu, Terumi, Relius, Makoto, Jin, Arakune (some of him at least) and god know who else I'm starting to think it's just a place for everyone to chill until the plot need them again.

About Kazuma, I always though that Kazuma is Hazama but apparently he isn't (damn Amane's astral). In that case what happened to Kazuma exactly?

So let's me get this straight, Naoto' strory is something like this: In the Blazblue world, a Naoto certainly existed in the past, HOWEVER, he died at the hand of Clavis. HOWEVER, there's an alternate reality that he survived and that world is Bloodedge Exp. But now, reality is breaking down, every alternate world has disappeared, leaving Blazblue world the only timeline still standing (for now). HOWEVER, Raquel manage to save Naoto from being erased along with his timeline by booting him out of the Bloodedge Exp world and place him into the Blazblue world, passing him off as "Ragna", which slowly overwriting the real Ragna existence because clearly the world hasn't shit on Ragna enough as it is. So basically, when they say that the Blazblue world is the "origin" of Naoto's world is doesn't mean that Blazblue happened before Bloodedge Exp. It just mean that the Blazblue world is like a big tree trunk and every other worlds, including Bloodedge Exp, are the small branches. Did I got that right?

Hi guy, a newbie here, I'm a fighting game casual, I've finished bbcp for a while and is anxiously waiting for bbcf. I've come across bits and piece of bbcf story online and it's been bugging me to the point that I almost lost sleep over it, almost. It does however made me create an account just to ask this: WHAT. THE. ACTUAL. FUCK. It seem that the story has gone even further down the rabbit hole than it already is (which I naively thought was impossible before), by that I mean it has gone so far down it seem come out on the other side of a completely different universe altogether.... Seriously, Noel is what now? The hell is Naoto doing here? He's a walking clusterfuck (plotwise). Where is Tao in all of this? And apparently ES is going to going to crash the party too ... Can anybody tell me what happened since the end of bbcp? Just the generally idea of what's going on and maybe where we are (or might) heading to. PS: Please excuse my English, it's not my first language.
