Of course, back in the earlier instalments, there was the whole endless loops in time, and the multiple possible results. But now, it's all one timeline. As Saya put it, it is now a world of death, where when someone's life ends, it truly ends.
I like their joke explination for why she kinda drops out of the story,where she misses the train while she was buying tangerines in the station store, or something
The best part is that they show the specific scene where the source material gratuitously reminds you that Lambda is just Lambda's corpse with Nu's soul inside of it, so it might as well just be more screen time for Nu
VixYW It was alright, but it had some issues. Still enjoy the series enough I'm gonna get the whole bluray thing once funimation releases it cause I'm a dumb drone.
Keyblade Apprentice Playthroughs May I ask why? I prefer this opening because the chorus, which is the heaviest part of the song, has more intense action animation than CP's first opening did. I thought the animation during the chorus in the previous one was kind of slow and boring.
Dazardz well it might be partly that Cp was the first BB game I ever followed before release so seeing that opening new for the first time does hold some value to me. But I think the main reason is that I admit the animation is better in this and the action is good, but something about the song I just listen to and I feel like I've heard it before in every other fighting game. The previous opening, yes I admit was slow, but that's what i like about it. I felt like it was different from some other openings in fighting games I've heard and it showed off a number of characters really well in some cinematic form. This one does a better job showing off all the characters and it does it in a very high flying action way, but with that said it also has an issue (and I admit this is a nitpick and not at all a fair thing to say) of showing off Celica like 4-5 times in the opening. Don't get me wrong, I think this opening is just fine on its own and it's by no means bad, I just like the previous opening more cause it was a bit different in its own way and more of my taste, this one didn't stick to me like the previous one did. But that's just me. Lack Luster might not be the best term. not my thing would be the better term to use
Me too. The music just escalates there and is perfectly matched by Ragna doing the most badass thing in the entire series. Kinda sad it's only in the opening, though. In the full game, it goes a bit differently.
I cannot count the amount of times I've watched this. I recently got Calamity Trigger and Continuum Shift Extend in the steam sales... And I've become officially hooked on this series. Februari can't get here fast enough.
The Continuum Shift Extend actually includes both the calamity Trigger and Continuum Shift story but with extra stories. Overall I hope to see this continue after central fiction story
Black Orb hanging in the sky. Big bad Izanami wanting to use said Embryo to purge the world of life because it connects to the Azure and the origin. *cough Holy Grail and Akasha* Jin and Hakumen being walking time paradoxes with the latter being the world's anti-body that essentially does the same job as a Counter-Guardian. Observer's like Rachel keeping things existing because the act of observing actually makes things exist. The concepts are very... Nasuverse-ish ain't it?
Thank You ArcSys!!!!!! Finally. BBCT's OP was amazing. BBCS's quality obviously went down. BBCSEX's got better but still not good BBCP's was almost like BBCT. This one is the BEST! I cannot believe how good this was! Finally! Please stick with the story mode's character designs! Thank you!
Nelson II Salazar the..."story mode character design"...? What the fuck are you talking about? Also, you forgot CS2 Also, BBCP's opening was shit, no synchronization between the scenes whatsoever. The song gets to the chorus, which is supposed to be the part where, you know, lots of shit happens on the screen, and instead we get Izanami tilting her head and Hazama laughing while moving very slowly towards Jin. The hype was so real there, uh?
FA-ST Notice how different the character select screen, story mode and old OP charcater designs are? Yes, I forgot cs2 but that OP was not good. Probably the worst. The announcer was the worst too
I...see no difference. Ragna still has white hair, heterochromia, a red jacket, and a big sword; Noel still has blond hair, green eyes and guns behind her; Tager is still a big red cyborg, and so on...what, you expect them to not make new artwork for every new game? that would be boring.
yeah, compare an entire anime to an opening, bravoh! boruto and dragonball super had much worst parts than alter memory, two big companies and animation studios
@@valentds well i guess you dont understand what we mean lmao. We are not comparing this opening to the anime. I was comparing Chronophantasma story to Alter Memory story. Chronophantasma has better story writing overall. Then again its a game and Alter memory is an anime. They cant possibly cram the whole story into 12 episodes and expect it to look good. so i understand
Faylan has gone on a long hiatus to recover from autoimmune disease. She might not sing in the Central Fiction opening(if that was the plan) if that releases this year.
+Ride The Lightning I know what Mori said. If the story ends in the next game, then that is the end of the game. Whatever Mori has planned for BB after that is not a part of the game that ended the current story. If you don't agree with the explanation, then add "of the story" in your mind to my last sentence. lol
FA-ST From the start, it has been stated Blazblue follows Ragna's story, hence the reason why he is the main character. I could repeat myself again, but that would be pointless, so I'll do it with sources. I'd appreciate if you would counter by doing the same as well. Here, he never once clarified that it was Ragna, but Blazblue, nor did he include Xblaze into the percentage: "When we met to talk about BlazBlue: Continuum Shift you said we were about halfway through the BlazBlue storyline. How far does BlazBlue: Chronophantasma take us?" Read more at www.siliconera.com/2013/07/04/blazblue-chronophantasma-brings-us-80-through-the-blazblue-story-and-other-tidbits/#0THrvDVmzuTFkbqY.99
The song starts with Ragna, Noel, Jin together fighting Izanami and with the song ending with that close up into Celica is just perfection All their OPs are great, the Extend ones are extremely good
MrOnepiecem7 Dance Dance Revolution, an old dance game. Google some songs from it, there's a bunch of tracks that sounds a lot like this one, specially its intro. Dem fast 100%-synthesizer beats.
Great news for Central Fiction. The return of KOTOKO and Faylan. "KOTOKO's opening theme song is titled "True-Blue" and Faylan's ending theme song is titled "BlazBlue ~Hikari no Mukō e" (BlazBlue: To the Other Side of the Light)."
LOVE Tager's changes. His 6A now hooks aerial opponents to being at his feet, and he can Oki (is that the right term for his Gadget Finger?) or use his 2C to combo further.
Wrought Iron Hero I don't mind Celica but the second ArcSys confirmed that XBlaze and Remix Heart (a.k.a; how we don't respect the universe that the creators gave to us) are canon killed the story for me and made it absolutely annoying and boring. I'll only play for the characters now.
Chips Light aw, come on, Xblaze isn't that bad. It's nice actually. If you take Hinata and Bitch!Mei away from the cast, everyone is pretty likeable too.
Am I the only one that noticed that we only see Ragna's face while The Phase 0 Parts of the opening as Bloodedge? During the pre-chorus and Chorus, when he puts on the Red Jacket again and takes Bloodedge as a title, we don't see his face at all. I wonder if its to foreshadow the ending of story mode.
Blaazaram Its terrible don't watch it this is coming from a hard core BB fan. The studio that did the anime messed it up so bad, the only good things was the OST and imo episode 8, besides that and the derpy animation don't watch it.
i didnt even notice it last night cause i was too busy freaking out over the animation but ooOooHH TERUMI TRANSFORMS INTO BLACK SUSANO'O WHILE HE'S FIGHTING HAKUMEN AAAA * q* that was beautiful.
you can red her story in the Phase Shift light novels the one with one eyed ragna was in fact taken from Phase Shift 0, so it's the closest we'll ever get to see these light novels being animated.
0:02-0:06 I have to admit, seeing Ragna, Jin and Noel gearing up for combat like that gives me chills every time.
Same
i wll be come 18 next month It was a long six yr since I started playing this game. 😢
Same here. The way they did it was perfect in my opinion.
Tao so irrelevant to the story in CP that she shows up for 1 second looking at a butterfly. Thanks ArcSys. At least you remembered her in the opening.
i miss the days when all characters had thire own story T_T
Of course, back in the earlier instalments, there was the whole endless loops in time, and the multiple possible results. But now, it's all one timeline. As Saya put it, it is now a world of death, where when someone's life ends, it truly ends.
snakeater21 What im supposed to say ?!
I like their joke explination for why she kinda drops out of the story,where she misses the train while she was buying tangerines in the station store, or something
Well, Ignis has more screentime than Relius :v
Dat Izayoi grin though. unnnf.
Ikr😂 that don't look like a face of justice😂😂
Taunja Johnson That my dear friend is the face of a yandere.
Agreed!
Notice that she is also crying too, thats important to notice.
William Prevel Welp that scene completely made me see things in another way. I barely saw that...but aw. D:
They bring back lambda just to show her death in the intro. Oh Arcsys.
The best part is that they show the specific scene where the source material gratuitously reminds you that Lambda is just Lambda's corpse with Nu's soul inside of it, so it might as well just be more screen time for Nu
That scene in the intro wasn't even a scene from Chrono Phantasma, it was from the end of Continuum Shift
Poor Lambda... Even her Gag Reel in Continuum Shift was fucking depressing...
Litchi, Makoto, Bullet gave extra bouncy beatz for the opening. I still love it years later
空耳歌詞、あってるかは知らぬ！
吸い込まれる暗黒の下（もと）
揺らぎ落ちるは涙の影
隙間を埋めた慈しみに
私は何ができるだろう？
真実はもう君を見てる
永久（とこしえ）を示す祈りでも
時に導かれた切望が
確かな絆へと紡いでいく
探せば探すほど
失われるセオリー
それでも君となら
覆す、世界ごと抱いて
運命は無償の愛
君に捧げ、リベンジ討つよ
ah, 体は何度も削がれても
誰よりも強い願い、願い続けて
届いてほしいよ
蒼く降り注ぐ彼方へ
this came out six years ago and i just realized that tsubaki is crying during that izayoi grin moment
Holy shit I never noticed that, damn thats good.
Now THAT is attention to detail
If only the anime was more like this.
***** ...what 18 dollars?
SolΩ .... Am I the ony one that liked the anime?
VixYW I liked the opening, 'cuz Faylan. Does that count?
I guess? The op is really awsome
VixYW It was alright, but it had some issues. Still enjoy the series enough I'm gonna get the whole bluray thing once funimation releases it cause I'm a dumb drone.
love how this intro perfectly summarize taos significance to chrono phantasmas plot in just couple of frames
Yup, I cri she's my favorite character:(
Definitely better than the previous opening.
Dazardz I completely disagree I thought this one was kinda lack luster and preferred the last anime opening
Keyblade Apprentice Playthroughs May I ask why? I prefer this opening because the chorus, which is the heaviest part of the song, has more intense action animation than CP's first opening did. I thought the animation during the chorus in the previous one was kind of slow and boring.

The Keyblade Apprentice And it was much heavier

Me too. The music just escalates there and is perfectly matched by Ragna doing the most badass thing in the entire series. Kinda sad it's only in the opening, though. In the full game, it goes a bit differently.
also is where the music starts when you preform your astral
1:24 I want that in high def wall paper size.And you should too

Overall I hope to see this continue after central fiction story
ゲームOPだけにするのもったいなさ過ぎるくらい曲も映像もカッコよすぎて未だに聞きに来てる
自分も今でもちょくちょく見に来てる
0:44 it seriously sounds like its leading into the chorus of Can't Beat Airman
Holy shit I can't unhear that now
わお
Desmond Hastings wonderful
Same here
I thought I was crazy
1:06 ここの狂ったような笑顔好き😊
God the part with Makoto makes me so hype it just syncs with the song so well.
Skormie The true sync with the song's hype is the Izayoi's scene :>
To each his own.
0:23 Baby Rachel
Probably the best BlazBlue opening yet.
this is probably the best animated blazblue opening
0:29 HER BUST MOVES TO THE BEAT WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL
This is still better than central fictions opening lmao
I came back just to say that the animation of this 1 minutes of intro is better than the entire episodes of Alter Memory
Not a high bar but still spittin' (4 years ago)
@@Emiya491 thank you hero of justice
Black Orb hanging in the sky. Big bad Izanami wanting to use said Embryo to purge the world of life because it connects to the Azure and the origin. *cough Holy Grail and Akasha*
Jin and Hakumen being walking time paradoxes with the latter being the world's anti-body that essentially does the same job as a Counter-Guardian.
Observer's like Rachel keeping things existing because the act of observing actually makes things exist.
The concepts are very... Nasuverse-ish ain't it?
Thank You ArcSys!!!!!!
Finally.
BBCT's OP was amazing.
BBCS's quality obviously went down.
BBCSEX's got better but still not good
BBCP's was almost like BBCT.
This one is the BEST! I cannot believe how good this was! Finally! Please stick with the story mode's character designs!
Thank you!
Nelson II Salazar the..."story mode character design"...? What the fuck are you talking about?
Also, you forgot CS2

are you talking about the designs of when Rachel, Valky and so on were younger?
I mean the Novel designs at 0:25 :3
Nelson II Salazar Try BBCS2 by far the best opening as far as music is concerned. I'd have to say the animation in this one is the best though.
0:56のラグナすき
1:17 "Fuck yo footing"
The full version of this song drove me back here
LOL it was so good i had to watch it twice.
Fine, i lied. I rewatched it 78 times.
ストーリーのシーンがアニメで動いてて良い!!このくらいのアニメ化が調度よかったのに例のCS編までのTVアニメ化が黒歴史すぎる
Just to enforce the "Alter Memory is and will forever be shit" train, THIS IS WHAT IT SHOULD HAVE LOOKED LIKE.
yep if only the anime was like this be dam cool
yeah, compare an entire anime to an opening, bravoh! boruto and dragonball super had much worst parts than alter memory, two big companies and animation studios
@acertainperson openings take less work and money to animate

なんだこの高クオリティ!?(驚愕)
That Hakumen vs. Terumi!
You have no idea how tight my pants are right now!
darkingPS3 it would be nice when ingame terumi whould changes in Black Sussano when when he goes in Overdrive mode
When you realize the OP features phase 0. Big hype!
OMG! That was EPIC! Faylan, as usual, with another amazing song. The story is 80% complete. The next game will be the end.
The end of the story not the game.

DDR?
dance dance revolution?
MrOnepiecem7 Dance Dance Revolution, an old dance game. Google some songs from it, there's a bunch of tracks that sounds a lot like this one, specially its intro. Dem fast 100%-synthesizer beats.
An alternative would be Blazlue: SMM aka Steal More Money
Daniel Suzuki Silva g
Production I.G Studio did all this great animation stuff though!
Great Animation thou
This single intro is the most anime thing ever created!!!
最初のとこめっちゃカッコいい！！
やぁ。7年前の貴方！
Fucking love the story they put into BlazBlue: Chronophatasma, Really love it if they put it as an anime
+CHEZ PIZZA Or a movie. SHUT UP AND TAKE MY PLATINUM DOLLARS!
That had to be the first time I saw Tager without his armor on.
i just hope Mai actually has enough roles for the next installment, or she just gonna be 'there' for its manga promotion, lol
All I saw was Noel looking awesome; no one else matters!
Well, the Black Susanooh was pretty cool.
Great news for Central Fiction. The return of KOTOKO and Faylan.
"KOTOKO's opening theme song is titled "True-Blue" and Faylan's ending theme song is titled "BlazBlue ~Hikari no Mukō e" (BlazBlue: To the Other Side of the Light)."
Ok. If they make a theme specifically for the final battle, both of them better be singing it.
Any news on when it's being released?
October 6th in Japan, Somewhere during November in US and Vaguely Late 2016 in EU.
Kokonoe, of course she would use a computer to have her machines to all the heavy lifting xD.
Best intro in the Whole Series.
LOVE Tager's changes. His 6A now hooks aerial opponents to being at his feet, and he can Oki (is that the right term for his Gadget Finger?) or use his 2C to combo further.
ChroPhas Tager was a mistake.
Dawww... Jin and Tsubaki are two shit crazy love birds :D.
This opening is foreshadowing two events in central fiction xd
Susanoo and the embryo nice
1:10 for Tao being Tao
damn.. this op looks so nice..
all BB extended Op was awesome..
I'm really glad I waited for the extended version of CHRONOPHANTASMA.
Oh boy, more Celica. Just what we all wanted.
Wrought Iron Hero I don't mind Celica but the second ArcSys confirmed that XBlaze and Remix Heart (a.k.a; how we don't respect the universe that the creators gave to us) are canon killed the story for me and made it absolutely annoying and boring. I'll only play for the characters now.
Chips Light i'm still going to pretend those don't exist
MuStCoMmEnT09
That'll be hard knowing the Blue Haired Bitch from Remix Heart is going to be playable later on.
Chips Light aw, come on, Xblaze isn't that bad.
It's nice actually.
If you take Hinata and Bitch!Mei away from the cast, everyone is pretty likeable too.
Wrought Iron Hero That's basically Kondo's reaction every time Celica's VA appears on BlueRadi
このオープニングまじカッケーー w 大好き！ アニメも音楽も最高だ
Who else came for the plot? Lol
I did. And yes, the actual plot.
Ive played all them for the plot :)
I play games only for plot
man i knew arc is gotta throw out a bbcpex on our face so my previous combos practice attempt would be render useless. Wonder what's next
人生初の格ゲーがこれだった
It's really funny to me that most characters shown fighting eachother, and then there's Taokaka, lying and playing with butterflies.
wow, the opening is so perfect i love it
One of the best openings Arc system has ever done
Best bb op so far !
Nobody dare state their opinion on this one, everyone's already flaming
Oh thank god. The animation for Chrono Phantasma's intro was so awful. Glad to see a return to form.
Now about those in-game anime cut scenes...
That was awesome! I'm so getting this version of Chrono phantasma! XD
Very cool, my PS4 is ready.
Mine too :)
I dont have a PS4... Im readying my PS Vita instead!
William Prevel you can buy it for PS3 too
See in January for the PC version.

Thanks Shoryuken for show me this. This weekend i've had planned to buy Chrono Phantasma, now i'm going to buy this instead :p
You know the video where the baseball security guard dances his heart out well imagine that but sped up at 1:17
THIS. THIS IS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR.
0:10 Black Beast: Hey Ragna, Jin, Noel! Guess what's my favorite fruit.
Ragna and co.: What?
0:14: Black Beast: PUNCH!
(said Black Beast on purpose)
That’s actually Gigant: Take-Mikazuchi. It’s made from a copied version of the Black Beast, so you aren’t that off, though..
at 0.11 i feel a little deja vu ( snk op1 )... btw ,
many memories when listen to this ost was back :")
1:08
Oh my...
while i love the opening, i must address one particular issue i have with it... WHY DO THEY BOTHER TO USE NU'S BLADES AND NOT MU'S TURRETS?!
If it ever gets a new adaptation it would be amazing if Ufotable is the one who does it,avoiding me to wach an awful made TakeMikazuchi
Jek MX Blazblue is already practically a visual novel
I skipped the Original CP so I can buy this version!
Can't wait for it!
Am I the only one that noticed that we only see Ragna's face while The Phase 0 Parts of the opening as Bloodedge? During the pre-chorus and Chorus, when he puts on the Red Jacket again and takes Bloodedge as a title, we don't see his face at all. I wonder if its to foreshadow the ending of story mode.
何度見ても神
this should def have its own anime
Blaazaram It already does :T
Fuuuuuu I didn't even know!! Thanks for the heads up dude!
Blaazaram Its terrible don't watch it this is coming from a hard core BB fan. The studio that did the anime messed it up so bad, the only good things was the OST and imo episode 8, besides that and the derpy animation don't watch it.
STILL FAYLAN HAHAHAAOHGODWHY
Yup
:^)
Watching this makes me want as Phase Shift Anime....
HYPE!!!! I AM HYPED!!!!!!
Finally Blazblue got some quality animation!
This song is so Damn Catchy.
and the video too with that parts. a perfect fast opening
i didnt even notice it last night cause i was too busy freaking out over the animation but ooOooHH TERUMI TRANSFORMS INTO BLACK SUSANO'O WHILE HE'S FIGHTING HAKUMEN AAAA * q*
that was beautiful.
Who still listen after 9 years 🙌
Me
I'm not even mad...
It loops itself...
-Kuroi Fenris
Celica looks like a nice, warm-hearted character. I hope she has a story. I also hope it's a story that I can relate to.
you can red her story in the Phase Shift light novels
the one with one eyed ragna was in fact taken from Phase Shift 0, so it's the closest we'll ever get to see these light novels being animated.
very Good Animation ^^
Well, looks like it's time for my Rachel to come back~
Well, that sad :
1:08 wow
