Unlimited character

Unlimited Characters are generally more powerful versions of the normal characters. Every character has an unlimited form that can be selected in the Character Select Screen. However, unlimited characters are only permitted in Versus Mode, Training Mode, Legion Mode (to an extent), and online play. Unlimited characters can either be unlocked by purchasing downloadable content for the character, by beating Arcade Mode with the respective character in Calamity Trigger (Ragna, Rachel, Hakumen, and Nu only), by beating the Score Attack Mode with the respective character in Continuum Shift, by purchasing them in the Gallery in the portable ports of Continuum Shift II and Extend, or beating Unlimited Mars Mode with the respective character in Chronophantasma. Unlimited forms of DLC characters are automatically unlocked.

Trivia

 * When an unlimited character is selected, his/her name will glow pink in the game's HUD. In Chronophantasma, Unlimited characters' portraits now have reversed lighting, an eerie purple glow behind them, and glowing eyes.
 * Players always have to fight against Unlimited Hakumen in Arcade, Score Attack and Story mode in Calamity Trigger.
 * Unlimited Jin has to fight against Unlimited Tsubaki at the end of Jin's story, "Decision".
 * Unlimited Nu is (except for Hakumen and Nu herself) the endboss in Calamity Trigger. Unlimited Hazama and Mu are the opponents in Continuum Shift's True Ending, "Murakumo".
 * The last fight of Arcade mode in Continuum Shift for every character (excluding Hazama's and Jin's) is unlimited Hazama. Instead, Hazama and Jin fight an unlimited Ragna the Bloodedge.
 * Unlimited Ragna is playable in the true endings of BlazBlue.
 * Unlimited Lambda-11 does not exist. Instead, unlimited Lambda is replaced by Unlimited Nu-13.
 * From Continuum Shift II onwards, if certain conditions are met in Arcade mode, Unlimited Mu-12 or Unlimited Ragna can be fought depending on the character. Some characters cannot fight them at all.
 * In Continuum Shift II and Continuum Shift Extend, all Unlimited characters are based on their Continuum Shift counterparts, with the exception of Mu in Extend, who keeps her changes. In Chronophantasma, the characters now have their updated balance changes and have been reworked, but as of the 1.01 patch, they retain the original 1.00 balancing.
 * In Chronophantasma, the characters have the Overdrive versions of their Distortion Drives as the default versions. Generally speaking, all characters have Overdrive active by default.
