Talk:Ragna the Bloodedge

His name

 * If he really is Jin's brother, the name of the character data should be list as "Ragna Kisaragi" because the name from the character info should be real names. Nathan900130 19:11 24 May 2010 (UTC)
 * No, Jin was adopted into the Kisaragi family after his, Ragna, and Saya's home was burned down. There is no confirmation on what Ragna, Saya, and Jin's true surname is. Judge Balthier 02:34, May 25, 2010 (UTC)

Ragna and Amaterasu
I went looking through Japanese (that i can think of) and found a thread for a connection between Ragna and Amaterasu. Even I don't understand much of what the thread is saying, Ragna definitely needs a power increase to destroy Hazama...a massive power increase. I read on Blazblue Wiki and that someone wrote that Saya destroyed the unit, however it can still be fix. Anyway, I don't even know if Ragna can handle such power (could drive him crazy).

Ragna's and Noel's Relationship
After the first game, they seem to bond very quickly. When I saw the second promotional trailer, Ragna shows more determination. I only understand a few japanese words, all I could figure out is that he is going to kill Hazama to save her and Hazama constantly taunts him as usual.
 * This... isn't the place to be discussing this. This is for talk about the article. Please discuss speculation on forums. Takoto  22:54, May 30, 2010 (UTC)

Alias

 * Hey, some people like Ragna and Tager have their own alias, should we put the specific character's alias in the character info? Nathan900130 22:26 6 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah sure. Takoto  16:07, July 6, 2010 (UTC)

I don't think Ragna lost his powers
I might be wrong, but if you pay close attention in Blazblue Continuum Shift's True End, where Ragna helps Noel regain conciousness, he was using his left arm, which the azure was concealed in his right arm.

He destroyed his arm with the armagus. He still has the Idea Engine. There will a better explanation of its function in the next game. Alot of stuff happened during the true end of CS.

@I Not Sure, but i think he just sacrificed the idea Engine from his powers, since ragna Said "IDEA Engine: Reverting Conection", and since Ragna Azure Arm Is his Right Arm, he may Still Have His Azure Grimiore

Ragna acts like such a Badass but he's scared of ghost, needles, snakes....

Not a dhampir?
Huh? No one's 100% sure Ragna's a dhampir? But doesn't the Main Wikipedia state that he's a dhampir? --Yuna.Fan
 * Wikipedia is often wrong. Gonna keep it like this until I/we/someone finds a source stating ether "Ragna is a dhampir" or "Ragna is a half-vampire". The problem with him being a dhampir is, a dhampir is a half vampire whose father is a vampire and mother is mortal human; we can assume Ragna's Dad (if he had one, hinted at he might be an artificial human or something akin, in CS) wasn't a vampire.

 * Yeah, but some fictional characters became dhampirs by being bit by a vampire.

 * Not many actually become "dhampirs", though, they simply become "half-vampires". A dhampir in legend is the son or daughter of a pure vampire father and a mortal mother; but as said, Ragna isn't a dhampir until Word of God says he is (word of god being, some form of official source. IE. Material Collection, out-rightly said in games, online official profile...). Takoto 15:43, February 17, 2011 (UTC)

Alright, fine. I guess I can see your point.

Ragna is not an artificial human
This is a reference to a sloppy edit from a few hours ago. Ragna's speech to Noel about being a human being  was him trying to express that whether she was born artificially or not, she was as human as himself; not an thing. It was not a hint or implication that he's a testube baby. The part about his soul was a reference to his revival thanks to Rachel's bite.

And no, the English dialogue is the exact same as the japanese(sans the spoken language, of course.)

 * I'll let your edit stay, but, there is a lot evidence apparently in the MC and in the Japanese version of the game that Ragna and/or his siblings are artificial humans. Also, no. The English and Japanese versions of the game are not word-for-word like each other, there are a fair few differences, stuff the English version of the game left out to simplify it. I heard from people who played both versions (and understand both English and Japanese) that the English version left out a couple of things. ~Takoto 17:20, March 17, 2011 (UTC)

Ragna is not a vampire nor a dhampir
When Ragna lost his arm and left for dead it was Jubei that saved him with his power (which is not know very well yet). The scene can be seen in Blazblue Continuum Shift in Ragnas story mode during the flashback he has. I dont know why people think Rachel bit him because its never hinted or mentioned in neither of the games. Rachel was with jubei because she is trying to stop history to repeat itself in calimity triger.


 * Did you actually read the trivia remarks? He was bitten at least ONCE. Rachel (and the Azure Grimoire) was the one who saved him. She bit him in the original timeline and indirectly showed him the way to the Azure Grimoire in the other timelines. Please play CT again and read the Material Collection.


 * But the short stories and Phase 0 are a bit inconsistent. Ragna already got his red eye before he touched the Azure Grimoire, yet he can't see with it anymore in Phase 0, after he was stripped of the A.G. .92.73.118.97 00:47, May 22, 2011 (UTC)

Ragna Comparisons.
I know you want to compare Ragna to different characters of different series of anime and video games, but can you get rid of the comparisons. They really don't have any weight other than the sol comparison. The other references really don't pertain to describing Ragna the Bloodege and is only speculation. Not trying to troll but when reading the article it really takes away its authenticity.
