User blog comment:BP Vermilion/Loopdy loop holes and unexplained stuff that doesnt make sense :D/@comment-88.77.74.130-20120323174834

I haven't played Extend yet, so I can only answer a few questions:

1. Just a wild guess(as far as I have understood Shuichiro's log entries). In the original timeline, Shuichiro, Relius and Terumi tried to make Kusanagi, the Cauldron went out of control and it became the Black Beast. The remnants of the beast became the two Azure Grimoires Nu and Ragna possess(ed). Fusing these parts together will result in another failed try to make Kusanagi and will again make another Black Beast. However, in the loops, instead of making Kusanagi, Relius and co. just open a time portal which will summon Nu who fused with the Azure Grimoires. This would basically mean that only one Black Beast exists. Relius fell into the Gates of Sheol(to the Boundary) or was swallowed by the "black thing" and was sent to the future in the other timelines then.

2. Kokonoe can act as an observer, but I don't really think she remembers anything about the other loops. Calamity Trigger(Rachel's story) revealed that she is one of the first who notices the timeloops every time which basically means that she can't remember anything about the other timeloops.

3. Not stated. My guess is that it's a causality weapon just like the 10 Nox Nyctores. Consider it a Nox which does not have the title of the Nox (yet).

6. Alternate timelines. This is actually a wild card excuse.

7. Uh... where is the question? ;D

8. You know, I could ask the same regarding how exactly he ditched the Susanooh Unit...

9. He died. Clavis/Claudius/whatever might be a vampire, but as he said, vampires don't live forever.

10. In her mind, she is probably over 72500 years old...

11. Probably because he possesses a Nox and because he is Relius' son, who openly opposes the Puppeteer.

12. As having said before, you can be an observer, but that doesn't necessarily mean you'll disappear if someone else doesn't observe you. One could even say that Ragna and Noel(Mu) acted as Hazama's observers, yet they don't disappear.

14. Relius seemed to possess Nirvana before Carl. He used Ada to improve Nirvana and left her in an incomplete form to Carl, so she could "babysit" him. Carl had to finish his father's work and somehow managed to "fix" her.

15. Either a translation error or not every unit that was sent to the Boundary was an Anti-Sankishin Core Unit.

16. Maybe...? Nu possessed the Blazblue, too.

18. The original Ragna could have just picked up the jacket and the sword sometime in his life. There could be more than one Bloodscythe and the jacket in the game's timeline.

19. Not every true end in the characters' storyline is in exactly >one< timeline, that's why there's a true ending(again the wild card excuse). It could have been an alternate timeline or whatever. It's not like Carl, Tao and Bang tried to defeat Hazama together in Bang's story, either. Hazama and Hakumen's story contradict each other, too.
