Hazama

A top secret informant working for the Librarium. At first, he appears to be supervising Noel's actions to keep her in line, but he has a sinister hidden agenda. In truth, he is actually Terumi, the main villain of BlazBlue and the mastermind behind many of the events of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger. At the end of the story Hazama is shown to be a captain for the Library and has given confidential verbal orders to Tsubaki to kill Noel and Jin. Originally appeared as sub-character in the BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger Story Mode. The pose that he does as Terumi, as well as the fact that he uses knives in battle, makes him a possible reference to Dio Brando of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure.

In Continuum Shift, it is revealed that Hazama was in fact, one of the Six Heroes and Hakumen's armor used to belong to Terumi. He created the Cauldron which would eventually transform into the Black Beast and had joined the Six Heroes in order to quell the mistake he had made. However, after the job was done, he immediately turned his back on the heroes and killed Nine, Kokonoe's mother. As the main antagonist once more, Hazama plans to destroy the core unit, Amateratsu; using Noel who becomes the Kusanagi unit.

Powers and abilities
The full extent of Hazama's abilities has not yet been revealed but is considered by many to be extraordinary in terms of power, so much that even Rachel second-guesses about fighting him though Hazama himself avoids confrontation with her as well. In battle, Hazama wields a pair of double-bladed small knives attached to a chain which he can uses to attack opponents from afar or reel them in as well as zip around the battlefield to quickly, if not, instantly close gaps between him and his foes. He also employs the use of dark energy which he forms into shadowy serpent-like apparitions to lash out at his opponent. Having been the original creator of the Azure Grimoire, he possesses his own imitation, activating it in an identical manner to mock Ragna, though he shouts Blazblue instead of Azure Grimoire. When activated, a large magical circle envelops him, slowly sapping away vitality of anyone who steps inside. In the Story Mode of the first game, Hazama's true form as Terumi depicts him as a black apparition with green glowing veins and aura, or alternatively, his facial features become psychotic and his hair spikes up.

Trivia

 * One of Hazama's alternate color palettes dresses him in white, which is seen by many as a tribute to the late Micheal Jackson
 * He bears a strong resemblance to Gin Ichimaru from Bleach. Also, Hazama and Gin Ichimaru are both voiced by Doug Erholtz in the English versions of their respective series.
