Being created in the likeness of Terumi, Kazuma bears a strong resemblance to him, except his bangs hang over his eyes. He wears a standard Magic Association uniform with a purple ribbon tie and a black cape, along with a matching pair of black pants. He has a very pale complexion.

Originally, he was a kind, curious, and sometimes weird person. His personality was the exact opposite of Terumi’s, but they shared the same hobbies (especially his love for boiled eggs which was eventually inherited by Hazama). This all changed when Terumi began making him doubt the people he believed he could trust and as a result he began adopting Terumi’s depraved mentality over time. After finally fusing with Terumi, his influence completely took over Kazuma’s mind and he no longer cared for others or even the affection that Trinity Glassfille showed him, eventually using those very feelings she had to manipulate her.

Lambda greatly resembles her predecessor Nu, but with the exception of a palette swap; having light blond hair, a tan complexion, and black and white armor. From BlazBlue: Chronophantasma Extend onwards, Lambda has a constant dark green aura enveloping her.
Within her battle armor, Lambda is identical to Nu, save for the key differences above. Her actual appearance is that of a young woman with tanned skin and long, light blond hair that is tied into an plat that easily reaches the back of her calves. She wears a huge visor with a single red eye, the visor has two massive ear-like constructs coming out of its sides that skim past the back of her head. Lambda typically wears a black body tight jumpsuit that covers her from her neck to her upper thighs; the suit has no back and has a small metallic piece covering the bottom center of her pelvis. When in her battle form, her shoulders and back are covered with her cybernetic armor, as are her, usually bare, fore arms, which are equipped with gauntlets that are attached with small blades; her fingernails have small, yet sharp, blades attached to them. Her legs are covered by the typical Murakumo Unit armor and the 8 Murakumo blades surround her.
Outside of her battle form, Lambda wears her black jumpsuit and a cape that is divided into three cloves. The cape itself is black, white and yellow, the lower parts of the side cloves have inscribed on them: “Λ No.11 Murakumo Unit ◄Idea DRIVE► -2198-”. Her cloak is held together with a large metal tablet which has her crest engraved upon it; hanging from this tablet is a small yellow and white fabric.
In the end of BlazBlue: Centralfiction , Lambda dresses as a nun and now works at the church along with Noel.

At the beginning of her story in BlazBlue: Continuum Shift which showed her past where she was in the middle of being experimented by scientists, Lambda was full of emotion and seemed to act slightly similar to Noel Vermillion in some aspects. However, because her desperate pleas for help could not be heard, and because the scientists had taken their experiments on her to the extreme, Lambda had unfortunately died. After Nu’s soul was salvaged and installed into Lambda’s body, due to the remnants of Lambda’s memories remaining in the body, Nu had temporarily mistook the memories as her own, which made her go into a panic as she was remembering the painful experiment that Lambda had gone through in the past. This forced Kokonoe to erase the memories within Lambda’s body completely, turning Lambda into an empty shell. As a result, Lambda became emotionless, quiet, and only follows orders given by Kokonoe. Over the course of the story, however, she started to regain Nu’s memories, remembering Ragna the Bloodedge as a result, and even refusing to kill him when Kokonoe ordered to do so. After recovering her memories completely, she rushed to protect Ragna, albeit at the cost of her life.
In BlazBlue: Alter Memory , Lambda was at first shown to be an emotionless weapon following Kokonoe’s orders, but later it was shown that Lambda was an innocent girl at heart who didn’t know anything. She was shown to be caring towards an injured tartar that Arakune had dropped and was sad about its death. Because she never had experience in the outside world, she had tried to copy what Ragna does after seeing him. She also did not know the meaning of being “gentle” at the time, so Ragna had taught her the meaning behind it.
After returning in BlazBlue: Chronophantasma Extend , Lambda developed amnesia when first reawakening back in the real world. For the most part of her Arcade Mode , Rachel and Noel have her face multiple illusions of other characters from the series in an attempt to jog her memory and get her to remember her life. After finally defeating a simulation of Nu, she is able to remember her previous life, her master Kokonoe, Ragna’s name and how nice he was to her. From that point onward, Lambda became a kind, innocent and caring person outside of battle, despite also being a soldier that doesn’t ask questions who works for Kokonoe, which she somehow doesn’t seem to mind.
On top of that, it is hinted that she may have a romantic affection for Ragna, or at least cares about him a great deal. Unlike her counterpart, Nu-13, her love is more subtle and quiet, compared to Nu’s stalker-like, yandere obsession that she has for Ragna. An example of this includes her battle with Hakumen in BlazBlue: Centralfiction , where she states that she wants to become stronger in order to be with Ragna and protect him from anyone that threatens to hurt him. Also, in her Act III of Centralfiction, when she is beaten by Ragna she willingly surrenders to him, saying that she will let him destroy her since her only wish was to meet him.

Meifang is a young woman with fair skin, long black hair tied into two pigtails, and blue eyes. She wears a red and white headgear that resembles horns, a white cape with a red and white dress underneath it, a dark form-fitting bodysuit, and long black socks with standard Control Organization boots.
When she was a child, she wore a traditional Chinese dress and two lotus flowers hair accessories on each sides of her pigtails.

Meifang is masochistic and somewhat psychopathic, and does not let anyone stand in her way. Everything she does is for the sake of the Emperor, but she still retains a bit of common sense, as when she ordered her men to not lay a hand on Tsubaki Yayoi , since she does not want to quarrel with her family.
When she was a child, she was a sweet, nice, and friendly girl. She was very loyal towards Tenjō and they became very good friends.
In the years following Tenjō’s death and the Ikaruga Civil War her personality changed drastically.

Litchi is a tall, young, and attractive Asian woman with long black hair tied into a bun, pink eyes, pink lipstick, and large breasts. On top of her hair is her pet panda, Lao Jiu . She wears a stylish Chinese doctor uniform with long white sleeves, a yin and yang brooch ribbon, a red vest, and a skirt dress that exposes her thighs. When in battle, she wears a slightly similar outfit: her hair is tied into a ponytail with Lao Jiu sitting on top with a yin-yang hair accessory at the end of the ponytail. She also wears an unbuttoned red vest that shows her black bra and breasts with separate black sleeves, a long red skirt, black thong and red shoes which are in a Chinese sort of style.
When she used to work for the 7th Agency, her hair was styled the same way as the style she uses for combat. While performing medical work as a doctor she used wear China-red glasses with a styled white lab coat. When she was younger, her hair was as long as her back, and she kept it tied with a deep green bow. She also wore small glasses, along with a sleeveless red shirt, white tights, and red slippers. When Amane Nishiki uses his Astral Heat on her, this look is retained, but Litchi is with Lao Jiu. [1]
In BlazBlue: Alter Memory during the hot spring scene in Episode 5, Litchi is seen wearing a strapless white bikini while she lets them tastes the water from the Kaka tribe hot springs.

Litchi, at first glance, can be perceived as the perfect woman – courteous, sexy, and intelligent. Being a doctor and former scientist, she is a kind person who is willing to help those in need. She is good friends with the Kaka tribe , acting as their teacher both mentally and, in Taokaka ’s case, physically. She has a one-sided, rather awkward relationship with Bang : Litchi likes him as a friend, while Bang is infatuated with her, but does not know how to express his love.
In her heart, however, Litchi hides a deep guilt for not being able to help her colleague Lotte, who became the being known as Arakune . In secret, she has searched for a way to cure him through any means necessary. It is through this that she is manipulated by Hazama to work for the Control Organization .
However, she did not take any joy in the act, only taking such path because she has tried other paths to no avail such as asking Kokonoe, but was refused. She also realized that she had to use the cure for herself, as leaving it alone will not make her own corruption go away by itself, as seen in her Bad Ending. It also shows her unwillingness to give up or taking the easy way out to live in ignorance of her own condition when there’s so much she could do for the benefits of others.
Despite working with the Control Organization, she never stooped as low as her other co-workers and does not discard everything else in her search for a cure for Arakune. Litchi remains a compassionate, courteous soul with a kind heart. She has two obsessions: Peking duck and cosplaying as smaller girls when she is drunk (due to accidentally buying clothes that are too small for her size and wishing to see what they would look like on a person).

Linhua is a young girl with long, navy-blue hair tied into a bun, and navy-blue eyes. She wears a white Chinese outfit with a black sash tied into a butterfly, short black tights, sandals, matching bracelets, and an anklet.

Linhua is a serious, kind, helpful, and honest person. She admittedly looks up to Litchi, and even looks out for her well being, to the point where she even fights against Tager in the story to protect her, punching his giant, metal hide until her fists began to bleed. She hates the Control Organization for killing her parents, and sometimes gets along with Bang Shishigami and Taokaka .

Estella is a mature woman with long blond hair tied into bun, blue eyes, and long triangular earrings. She is well-endowed and has a mole below her left eye. She wears an exposed military staff uniform with a short white collar accompanied by a small black tie, a sleeveless lab coat, black elbow guards, white gloves, a mini skirt, and black stockings along with military boots.

As a teacher, Estella keeps a professional attitude during her job. Fair and impartial, she is normally quite relaxed, but can also be intimidating when the students do not do their jobs properly. She also seems to put quite a considerable amount of time in keeping herself physically fit, going so far as to fill her room with training equipment.
Secretly however, she is fond of cute things. She even has a basement with her entire collection of frilly dresses and stuffed animals below her room.


BlazBlue

Celica is a young woman with long, auburn hair tied into a ponytail with a red ribbon, pale skin, and bright eyes that are described to be like soft, wet soil in color. She wears the standard uniform of the Magic Association with a red ribbon tie. The uniform itself consists of a plain, long sleeved, white shirt with golden rimming across the collar and sides, with black and gold cuffs; the shirt itself only comes down to her hips and leaves her navel exposed while keeping her hips covered. The uniform also consists of a frilled black mini-skirt with a golden line crossing it horizontally; the skirt itself barely reaches her thighs and is held in place by a small golden buckle. Finishing her look, Celica wears a standard black cape with golden lining that reaches the small of her back, and simple brown high-heels.
After the Great Dark War, Celica began to wear a standard nun uniform that is consistent in design to those who belong to the Roman Catholic faith. The uniform itself is a long, black, single piece dress that reaches down to her feet, the dress also has long sleeves reaching down to her wrists. The dress has a white collar and a long black veil.
Her swimsuit in Chronophantasma has her wearing a salmon pink and white two-piece bikini top with a matching very short skirt, a white bikini with two straps and brown sandals.
During her youth, she had medium-length hair. She wore a simple pink overall-like dress with a yellow bow that reached to her thighs over a simple white shirt with pink cuffs. She also wore white socks and black shoes with pink bows on the front.

Celica is a kind, generous, and sociable person who deeply loves her sister and friends. She is a sentimental individual who maintains a firm stance that all life is precious and will use her healing magic to assist those in need of it, regardless of who or what they are. She is also shown to be selfless to the point that she will shield a person with her own body without any hesitation and was willing to sacrifice herself to activate Kushinada’s Lynchpin, believing that her sacrifice was a small price to pay for the chance to defeat the Black Beast and save the world. She develops affection toward Bloodedge as time goes by and seems to idolize him. She had difficulty interacting with Kazuma Kval due to the uneasy feelings his presence evoked within her. It has also been noted by people (particularly Bloodedge ) that she has no sense of direction, which usually ends with her getting lost.
She is also shown to be very stubborn, such as when she ignores her sister’s warnings and heads to Japan by herself to search for her missing father and is also unwilling to admit that she has a poor sense of direction, leading to frequent quarrels between her and Ragna, which had once ended up with Mitsuyoshi attacking Ragna, falsely believing that he was bullying Celica as he had been trying to snatch the map from her.
She is suggested to have been in love with Ragna in the epilogue of Phase 0, where Nine and Jūbei goes to her church to tell her that they wished to hold their wedding there. When Nine asks Celica about her current happiness, whether if she should have become a magician or even get married, Celica replied with her promise to Ragna, that she was willing to wait for him to return so that “she could meet him once more”, “even if it will take many years, even if it will take many decades”, and then she would return his sword and jacket to him, since “he had promised to come back to get it back after all”. This is proven in one of the gag endings in BlazBlue: Chronophantasma where the Popularity Glasses is placed on Ragna once again, and Celica is shown to be unaffected, meaning that she truly loves Ragna.

Kokonoe appears as a fairly young adult catgirl with a slim build. Her eyes are a golden-amber with visible bags under them, due to working overtime in her lab. She has pink hair which she keeps tied in a specialized style consisting of a long ponytail backing up longer tufts resembling large cat ears, which tend to overshadow her actual animal-like ears, which fade into white at the tip, these ears are bent forward slightly. Her attire consists of an altered, scientist version of the usual Kaka jacket with a white coloration. A hole at the lower base provides room for her twin, cat-like tails. She also wears a pair of small spectacles, and is never without her trademark lollipop.
The oversized sleeves are cut at the sides to make it easier for her arms to slide in and out of them. She wears a pair of red capri pants lowered enough to reveal black underwear, with a black belt adorned by a large cat bell. The attire is completed with a pair of white mules with heels similar to the boots the Kaka tribe wears, but with no vamp, allowing her to take them off almost reflexively as her story mode render shows her barefoot in one of her feet.
In BlazBlue: Alter Memory during Episode 8, she also wears a white high-neck sports bra underneath her Kaka jacket after the oversized sleeves of her jacket got spilled with her own coffee.
When she was young, she had short hair and kept it in a pigtail, and wore the same yellow ribbon that she wears as an adult. She also did not wear spectacles. In terms of clothing, she wore a jacket similar to Taokaka’s except with the hood down, and with a black collar.

Kokonoe is a rather serious and cynical woman with no regard for emotions, and always strives for Tager to complete his missions without fail; however, she can on rare occasions be quite personable, mostly around her creations. She is displayed and perceived as cranky and foul-mouthed most of the time. She and Taokaka possess a few similar personality traits, something that most note as “more in common than they realize”, due to their impatient nature and short attention span.
She has some traits of her father and her mother, even though she tends to be bitter at both of them deep down for them not being a part of her early life. She also displays signs of being aware of the racism displayed to her heritage as a half-beastman; believing that people will show prejudice against her, it’s for this reason that even her potential new students and apprentices aren’t aware of her species, as displayed by Litchi in BlazBlue: Chronophantasma .
However, as Celica points out, Kokonoe is a good person at heart. Without Litchi’s knowledge, she became Arakune’s Observer despite the risks entailed to prevent the Boundary from consuming him and is trying to figure out an effective solution for his depraved state. Also, she repeatedly shows that she will only resort to mass destruction in a worst-case scenario, preferring to minimize the casualties caused by her war against Terumi or not have any at all. She was also willing to use an alternative method to activating the Lynchpin where Celica wasn’t sacrificed despite her being merely a clone and even took the initiative to create the Ex Machina: Minerva so she could defend herself.
Tager has described Kokonoe as being selfish, foul-mouthed, having an addiction to Silvervine candy and having the belief that the entire world focuses on her and her alone. Overall, Tager gives a very negative outlook on her when first describing Kokonoe to Noel Vermillion; however, at the end of his “frank opinions” on his superior, he states that she is actually a very kind and good person, something that Makoto Nanaya immediately calls out on, calling it contradictory to his previous sentiments. Her anti-social behavior and lack of outdoor activity implies that Kokonoe is a hikikomori.
Lotte Carmine also introduces his opinions about Kokonoe to Litchi Faye Ling when they first met. Despite his numerous complaints about her lack of ability to congratulate people, he points out how she possesses the trait of not paying much attention to detail; but compliments her abilities as a scientist.

Konoe has long, bright, vibrant pink hair and bangs with contoured feathery strands that cover her left eye. She has yellow eyes and is well-endowed. She used to wear a dark purple witch’s hat and a Magic Association uniform, with the additions of a tied purple ribbon and cape, along with long black straps attached to her sleeves, long black curved leggings that reach to her mini skirt, and black slippers with stilettos. During the Great Dark War, she wore a black magician’s coat. Konoe wore the coat loosened and opened, which showed her sleeveless white collar shirt with a purple Windsor knotted tie.
As Phantom, she wears a purple cloak with a high collar with red blood zig-zag almost like zipper, and two long, white scarves ending in red rags that resemble flames. She also wears a large, pointed hat that conceals her face.
In BlazBlue: Centralfiction , she retains her witch hat as Phantom, except it’s adorned with a slit accented with the pink fabric on her dress. Much of her physical form is the same before becoming Phantom, except her hands and fingers are larger and longer, her nails are sharper and her hair is longer and wilder. She wears a purple collar with an attaching magenta cape, a short revealing purple and pink dress matching with two separate long sleeves, black gloves, long black curved leggings with dark purple trimmings and dark purple heeled slippers. As seen in one of her win poses, the pink portions of her outfit eerily glow. Her eye color remains the same, but her sclera has become black. However, whenever she sheds her stoic demeanor and reveals a more sadistic side, they change from black to a glowing red.
During her youth, she had her hair tied in a ponytail, while the fringe covered her left eye that was covered by a black eye patch. She wore a simple purple and white uniform that stoped above her thighs; two black braces hanged from the bottom. The uniform was accompanied by a lavender tie and a pair of huge black and purple cuffs. She also wore a pair of brown tights and royal purple shoes with black heels.

Prior to her descent into madness as Phantom, Konoe was a person who liked to do things her own way, a trait shared by her daughter . She is a kind-hearted individual who cares about her friends, especially her younger sister Celica. However, she was not easy on Kazuma . Although she seems to have a mature and serious personality, she can be somewhat impulsive and violent when angered, as shown when she attempted to use a fire spell on Bloodedge for annoying her. She was this way even with her lover, Jūbei, before falling in love with him as well as rash, headstrong and independent.
Before having her daughter, Konoe had more time on her hands to delve into magical legerdemain. This was likely due to the fact that she was the best in her field of expertise. Unlike her daughter who was a whiz with science, Konoe had an ability, charm and prowess with the magical arts. Being the best in her field and from her expertise and leadership, it was easy to see why she responded to others the way she had. These would psychologically determine her to be right-brained and eccentric, if not at least eclectic. Konoe also displays a poor sense of direction similar to her sister, seen when they walk together in the wrong direction during the search for their father.
As Phantom, however, all of her personality has seemingly vanished. She no longer speaks nor has any signs of any emotions whatsoever; becoming an empty shell in comparison to what she was before. While as Phantom, she attacks anyone who is deemed as the Emperor’s foe, going so far to attack Trinity Glassfille , one of her closest comrades, and her lover Jūbei and even punishing her own daughter Kokonoe for using Celica. When her restrictions as Phantom are released, Nine retains her same arrogant tone and confidence in her abilities; however, she no longer has concern for the well-being of her former comrades and family. Despite this, she still retains her memories, taunting Jūbei about their former relationship before engaging him in battle.
However, in BlazBlue: Continuum Shift and BlazBlue: Chronophantasma , she shows signs of resisting, indicating that she is regaining her original sentience. In BlazBlue: Centralfiction , Nine is confirmed to have regained her original sentience from the beginning, but she has acquired a bleak view of the world from being driven mad through all the time she spent in the Boundary. She wishes to destroy it so she could recreate it with her desires in mind and is not above using those around her to achieve her goals. Fiercely determined and viciously vindictive, Nine wants to exact vengeance on the people who caused her so much pain and suffering. Despite her vendetta against Izanami and Terumi, Nine purposely worked for them for her own ends. She retains her characteristic condescension and arrogance, though taken to new and alarming levels, along with a stoic but nevertheless volatile disposition.
It seemed she had completely detached herself from both her family and her former comrades, save for her sister, Celica, an attachment which led to her own undoing and defeat. Some examples include undermining Hakumen for his attempts to stop her in achieving her plans and punishing her own daughter, Kokonoe, for using her younger sister in the events of the previous game. However, there are instances where she acts differently depending on the person she is interacting with. For example, she blames Ragna for everything that’s terrible with the world and would not hesitate to punish him relentlessly. In another instance, she shows sympathy toward Tsubaki Yayoi, who she relates to with regards to being a helpless victim of circumstance. She has even expressed reluctance in harming children, as seen when faced against Carl and Nirvana, but would do so if necessary.
However, underneath all the immense indignation, Nine never lost her humanity. Everything she had done throughout the events of the fourth game was all for the sake of granting everyone’s wishes, most especially that of the people she loves and not just Celica and herself. She was simply so determined to bring her plans to fruition that she would not let even the people she wants to save intervene, even to the point of openly antagonizing them. Even her affection towards her husband never truly wavered as she was very much pleased that she got the chance to be protected by him one last time before she passed. In the end, while her intentions were indeed selfless and noble, her methods were quite extreme, going to the point where she sacrificed herself to grant her loved ones enough time to stop Izanami, proving that deep down inside, she is still a hero and she loves those that are not only close to her, but the ones who also care about her.

Marceline is an average woman with long pink hair, two blond braids and sky blue eyes tinged with emerald green. She wears a plain white and aqua colored collar dress with a small black cape, and a long thin black cloth wrapped around the majority of her body. Her look is complete with oversized handcuffs and pink slippers. While at work, her hair is tied up in a large bun. Also on two separate occasions, she wore a paper bag mask with a single eye hole for her to see through with a hole in the top for her hair bun to poke through.

Despite her numerous eccentric bouts of lectures about curry and its mannerisms, Marceline is an intelligent woman who is perceptive and wise. She has no interest in the Blue since she believes its power would make life boring by making the user omnipotent and omniscient; her philosophy on life dedicates itself to discovering things by oneself. Marceline also holds the view that “truth” is merely subjective.
Even when she was a member of the Ten Sages, she was extremely opinionated, never allowing herself to be constrained by the traditions of the Sages. She has a knowledge of mythology, using the mythical beast Pegasus in a poetic analogy for Drei’s soul.
She abandoned her duties as Zwei for six years and settled in the New Yokozaki City , working at the Maha☆Raja~ Curry Shop and believing that trying to find the truth in curry is much more satisfying than trying to derive any meaning from sorcery .

Mitsuyoshi is a two tailed, black and white cat, who stands upright like a human being. He wears a jacket similar to the Kaka tribe’s jacket, but with an Eastern motif and a cut in the back where his two tails poke out. He also wears an eyepatch on his right eye, although it is hardly seen due to the game’s affinity to flip and reuse the same sprite. His weapon, the Musashi , is carried on his back via a belt strap. When his hoodie is removed during his Astral Heat, his fur is spiky and rugged akin to a long lion's mane.
When he was young, he wore a Kaka ninja-like orange-yellow garment.
During the Great Dark War , he wore samurai-like armor, with a headband and collar.

Jūbei is generally agreeable, sociable and optimistic. Whenever there is a great threat, such as Ragna or the Control Organization around, he always keeps his laid-back attitude and stays relaxed. He makes the best of every situation, and is always trying to see the good in everything.
At times, though, Jūbei shows a far more jaded and bitter side. Due to many of his friends having died, Jūbei shows deep-seated guilt over his inability to do anything. As such, he has felt that he is nothing more than a weak coward who runs home with his tail between his legs while leaving good people such as Hakumen and Bloodedge to their fate. The supposed death of his lover, Nine, and having to leave their daughter Kokonoe without a family, only wound him further. Because of those losses, however, Jūbei is even more driven to do what’s right, and will use the power he has to do so.

Being Noel’s true form, Mu’s physical appearance remains the same, with the exception of her eyes having changed to a soulless blue featuring tiny pupils (in some artwork, her eyes are completely blank in a bright blue that is “glowing”), and her long blond hair with a distinct fray. Outside of combat, her outfit is similar to Nu-13 ’s, but with a more elaborate and advanced design, featuring lights, thigh-high toeless socks, and blue nail polish on her hands and feet. She wears an armored headplate featuring long horns like Hakumen’s. When in battle, she dons armor similar to Nu and Lambda-11 with the same general design and floating blades. However, unlike the former two, her armor shows off much of her skin, retaining little of Noel’s Control Organization outfit, which seems to have disintegrated. It also features large magic power regulator pauldrons.
As a child, she was wearing a blue experimental robe. Her hair retains the distinct fray. This version is also seen when Mu is affected by Amane’s Astral Heat.
In BlazBlue: Chronophantasma , as Noel is now in full control of her powers, Mu no longer has blank and lifeless pupils, her blue eyes are no longer dulled, and now have definition. This is carried on in BlazBlue: Centralfiction even after Mu splits from Noel; she still has defined eyes.

While Noel Vermillion is the definition of a “shrinking violet”, Mu-12 is completely the opposite: she becomes emotionless, and wants the world to be destroyed. She only acts based on Terumi’s orders, and she believes that the world “hates her”, and is filled with nothing but lies. When she believes the world hates her, she feels more anguish in her speech than when she’s emotionless, often switching between ranting about the world hating her and her usual, robotic speech.
However, after Noel gained control over her powers and transformation into Mu, she now retains her normal personality and emotions when in Mu’s form. Upon transforming willingly, Noel noticeably becomes more “in control” of her emotions, as opposed to when she felt as though she blacked out when fighting using Bolverk. As a result, she is more calmer as Mu instead of Noel, as shown in some of her victory quotes in Chronphantasma; Noel will still scream at the sight of Arakune’s bugs, but as Mu, she questions about Arakune’s existence.
Despite being more outspoken, Noel is still apologetic even as Mu, as shown when she fought against Tsubaki in her Izayoi form when she awkwardly ask her to return as she apologize for taking her place in the timeline they are in.
She is also shown to be more confident and outspoken, though she still has some degree of shyness and embarrassment regarding her rather revealing attire, particularly when facing Ragna in Chronphantasma and Mai in Centralfiction.

Kagura is a rather tall, broad chested, young man. He wears a white, robe-like shirt with long sleeves that is open just above his abdomen; two black belts are fastened on the sleeves. Kagura wears wrist wraps that cover his palm to his elbow, two metal cuffs sit above the wraps on his wrists. On the lower half of his shirt, two brown belts are fashioned, below this, a large and loose brown belt hangs, it has a huge golden buckle. Over his shirt, he wears a large, black Control Organization cape that is separated into three individual cloves. The interior of the cape is a deep crimson red, while the exterior is decorated with a golden insignia on the outer cloves; the cape is held onto Kagura’s body via a light brown strap. He wears plain black pants and light brown shoes with metal toe-caps.
When he was in the Military Academy, he looked the same, except he wore a military school uniform slightly opened and wore his scarf loose while wielding a kendo stick, as seen in Amane Nishiki ’s Astral Heat .
His swimsuit in Chronophantasma has him wearing black swim shorts with yellow designs, with a matching black-and-yellow jacket with a red interior. His swimsuit motif was his black Control Organization cape from his primary outfit.

Kagura is shown to have a laidback attitude, taking things very casually, in stark contrast to some characters in the BlazBlue series. In BlazBlue: Remix Heart , he is shown to be a pervert as his first line in the manga is about Mai Natsume’s breasts, and onwards in BlazBlue: Chronophantasma , he is shown attempting to grope Makoto Nanaya’s breasts and analyzes most female opponent’s B-W-H measurements. However, he has no interest in underage females such as Platinum (he remarks how she should get back to him in 10 years in his Victory Quote) and repeatedly states how he dislikes entertaining men. However, in special cases, some females are exempt from his usual treatment, like Tsubaki , Kokonoe and Rachel (although he still asks Rachel out on a date in his victory quote against her).
He tends to flirt with almost any woman he encounters and tries several times to invite Noel Vermillion to dates but they have all ended in failure due to Makoto’s interference (mostly a punch in the face) and later also Ragna’s overprotective sibling attitude (once he gets to adjust to Kagura’s perverted attitude). On a serious note, Kagura became enraged and tried to kill Arakune when the latter attacked Noel, showing a protective side to him (although it is likely this extends to all women).
He is also surprisingly humble as he frequently attributes his many “successes” to the fact that he has “great subordinates”, as well as wanting to make the world a better place without the need for large scale wars due to being more empathic to the people than the government as he discreetly planned against the current organization for years since Tenjō's passing in her honor (and also remaining close to his old friend Bang Shishigami and loyal to Tenjō's son). He also tries to give Ragna advice and words of wisdom to help him understand his reason for fighting and later develops a level of respect towards Ragna after the battle with Azrael.

Makoto is a squirrel-type demi-human young lady with short brown hair, a big curly brown tail, hazel eyes, and large breasts. She wears a Control Organization uniform with a black balmoral cap to cover her squirrel ears, a jet black cloak, and black military boots. In the end of BlazBlue: Alter Memory , she wears a black Control Organization uniform dress with a white collar and a short red tie, with two separate long sleeves that have two heavy metal bands and white gloves. This is her standard Control Organization uniform underneath her black cloak. She also has bandages on her eye and arm after she was severely tortured by Hazama as Yūki Terumi to make Noel get angry enough to break the emotional limiter of her Event Weapon, Bolverk.
She later wears this in the end of BlazBlue: Centralfiction , but her Control Organization uniform is blue.
When she is in battle, she switches her outfit to an orange fighter top showing the bottom-half of her bosom, two tonfas, black strap panties with an orange skirt-like cloth that allows most of her buttocks to escape, long black stockings, and orange small boots with yellow toes.
When she was in the Military Academy, she wore a standard school uniform, only with a darker mini skirt, black socks, and brown shoes.
As a child, Makoto wore a short orange top that bared her midriff and short black tights, and is barefoot. [1]
In BlazBlue: Chronophantasma , Makoto does not wear her Control Organization uniform as her pre-battle outfit, trading it for an orange collared jacket with folden sleeves which was issued to her by Kokonoe. Kokonoe explains that the people of Ikaruga harbor hatred and resentment towards the Control Organization, which justifies the change in attire.

Makoto is a silly, friendly, generally whimsical and energetic demi-human. She also appears to be somewhat scatter-brained, though this trait belies her true aptitude as an Intelligence operative and spy for the 7th Agency. She is one of Noel’s best friends, though unlike Tsubaki, she harbors no jealousy towards her. She cares deeply for her friends and cannot stand when they fight each other. When she was in Military Academy, she used to be cruel, mean, selfish, and hated humans, but then had a change of heart by Tsubaki’s words when she confronted her fellow female classmates who were picking on her. When she, Tsubaki, and Noel were trapped in the lower levels of Kagutsuchi, it was revealed that she just wanted to be accepted for who she is. Makoto also has a serious side when it comes to her friends, and has even confronted Hazama when she discovers what he did to Noel.
During her arcade ending in BlazBlue: Continuum Shift , she lashes out at Hazama for calling beastmen just mere tools created simply to fight the Black Beast, showing her dislike for being discriminated. This is also revealed when Relius, during Makoto’s Bad Ending, messes up with her mind, recalling painful memories of being rejected and ostracized as a beastman.
In BlazBlue: Chronophantasma , while she likes Kagura Mutsuki as a person, she dislikes his lecherous behavior, which includes multiple attempts to flirt with her and Noel, offering the latter drinks which are implied to be alcoholic in nature, and attempts to grab Makoto’s breasts. In her special intro with Kagura, he tries to grope her, but she parries and punches him back in response.
Many other characters have joked or insulted Makoto based on her sexual outfit and body, with Kokonoe and Noel admitting to be jealous, yet Makoto herself obviously is not embarrassed by it and prefers to fight with such light clothing. Even in the Remix Heart manga, Makoto is implied to be bisexual due to the multiple escapades she has with Mai Hazuki . These range from kissing her, fondling her and even watching her being forced to touch Kajun Faycott sexually; even when Tsubaki and Noel look away, Makoto watches avidly. She also happens to be attracted to Naoto Kurogane at one point during BlazBlue: Centralfiction .
Yet in spite of all this, there are times where Makoto herself tends to easily be exasperated in quite a few comical situations as one of the few "straight-man"-types which makes her overall personality fairly dynamic.

In Remix Heart Mai is a teenage girl with magenta eyes and long thick blue hair tied by a yellow ribbon into a ponytail that reaches her thighs; she also has hair antennae, two sidelocks that reach to her chest. Her body is quite slender and athletic, with thin limbs and a flat abdomen, but has a bust that is second only to that of Makoto in size at the Military Academy.
As a student, she wore the standard blue and white uniform of the Military Academy, accompanied by black thigh-high stockings and white shoes with yellow outline. At times she also wore pink lipstick and nail polish. During the sport festival, she has her hair down with her ribbon as a hairband, and a standard Japanese looking school P.E. uniform. When Mai and her friends went swimming she wore a thin, striped two-piece light and dark blue bikini with yellow straps and rims that is decorated with yellow ribbons. For her school swimming lessons she wore a one-piece competition swimsuit. When participating in the academy survival training, Mai wore a low cut black tank top with a short-sleeved jacket, emblazoned with the Academy’s insignia. The top was tucked into normal short shorts held together by a pocket belt. Black thigh-length socks and military boots finished the look off.
As a male Mai was taller, had broader shoulders, a wider waist and narrower hips. Mai had long hair that was at times tied in a ponytail, though she didn’t use a ribbon. Her appearance was sufficiently different that neither Jin nor Tsubaki who had known Mai as a boy were able to realize that the female and the male Mai were the same person. Mai had worn the formal clothes expected of the Twelve Originators member; examples include a white collar shirt accompanied with a white scarf, a dark vest, and black formal jeans.
By the time of Variable Heart and Centralfiction her appearance had somewhat changed as she had gotten older. Her hair got longer compared to her first year of the academy, with her side-locks reaching below her navel and her ponytail below her knees. In addition, Kajun said that Mai’s chest had grown in size “to another level” and Kagura also commented that Mai’s chest has grown nicely. She now wore an outfit given to her by Kajun that consisted of lowleg tight-fitting black pants that exposed some skin on her sides, a backless white halter top with red trimming, black symbols, and a big golden zipper piece, maroon fingerless gloves that reach close to her elbows and high-heeled boots. She also had a red cape that she removed before combat.

At the start of Remix Heart Mai was sheltered, timid and had difficulty interacting with others. This was because her harsh and distant father had taught her to consider everyone a potential enemy, causing her to grow up without friends. In addition, Mai initially had very little self-esteem and a low sense of self-worth due to her father’s desire for a perfect heir which Mai was unable to achieve. Furthermore, her father’s apparent rejection caused Mai to fear that all the other people she met, including her friends, would also eventually reject her just like he did. She also initially felt insecure being surrounded by girls and was embarrassed by seeing them naked. However, she quickly demonstrated that she was a good person, as she agreed to eat Noel’s cooking in order to make her feel better despite the warnings of her friends. Throughout Remix Heart Mai was very kind, polite and did what she could to help her friends due to the fact they were the first people to fully accept her. In addition Mai showed great courage and inner strength as well as a willingness to fight in order to protect those that she cared for. Carl had commented that Mai’s personality is similar to his sister, Ada. When Mai was a man, she used to be more quiet due to the pressure of being the next head of the Twelve Originators family as well as due to her father keeping her isolated. She stated that she had been like a puppet, living an uneventful life with no freedom. Making friends and being freed from her father’s constraints allowed her personality to evolve, and resulted in her overcoming her shyness and becoming more open towards others. In addition, thanks to her friends who accepted her even though she was not perfect, Mai managed to overcome the inferiority complex and trust issues caused by her father and gained both self-confidence and a sense of self-worth. Nonetheless, Mai still greatly respects her father and earnestly wishes to earn his approval.
While Mai had used the masculine first person pronoun “boku” before her transformation, at the Military Academy Mai used the neutral pronoun “watashi” instead. This was probably due to her wanting to hide her past and pass for a normal girl. As Mai spent time living as a woman, she adapted and gradually stopped thinking of herself as being male. She got accustomed to bathing naked alongside other girls and was no longer embarrassed by physical contact with them, only looking slightly annoyed when Noel ran into her and having no problems sleeping in the same bed as Kajun. In addition she lost interest in other girls and started being attracted to men. After accidentally kissing Taro, she started to feel flustered when around him, eventually realizing that she had fallen in love with him. This resulted in Mai undergoing an existential crisis since it made her conclude that she had become female in both body and mind and caused her to worry that she had changed so much that her original self had ceased to exist. In the end however Mai decided that even if she had changed, she was still herself and with the support of her friends came to accept herself as a girl.
In Variable Heart , Mai disliked being called a “grimoire” because she wanted to be considered a person rather than an object. In addition, she worried about the impact her transformation into a grimoire had on her humanity. Mai showed she was able to read Kajun’s intentions, as she realized that her teasing was due to her difficulty in talking about Mai’s situation.
Mai’s Centralfiction profile describes her as being cheerful and positive, sincerely caring towards others, that she values her friends above all else and that she often neglects herself due to the strength of her feelings. Mai displayed her loyalty to her friends by her willingness to face Hazama in order to protect Noel even though he was a Control Organization officer and her actions could thus be seen as treasonous.

Amane Nishiki is an androgynous male character with violet hair tied in a bun and blue eyes with dark pink eye shadow and red lipstick. He wears a flowing pink and red kimono that exposes his shoulders underneath his sleeveless black skintight turtleneck, black shorts and legwarmers, and red platform sandals. He also sports a translucent pink scarf which appears to levitate through unknown means. In Story mode, Bullet states that he looks identical to his appearance 10 years prior.
Pre-battle, Amane wears a royal white geisha outfit, underneath, he has a pink and red-colored checker pattern kimono.

Amane is a friendly, respectful, and eccentric individual. He refers to battles as “dancing” and his gameplay style even resembles such. He is always on the lookout for possible fellow performers, asking both Ragna the Bloodedge and Carl Clover to join, being very persistent to have the latter do so. His subordinates greatly revere him and he in turn is shown to be very generous towards them, going so far as to treat them to a surprise vacation in the 7th Hierarchical City of Kazamotsu . He often addresses any individual he meets as “my dear”. Despite his heavily female appearance, Amane’s personality is fairly masculine.
However, he can make rather careless mistakes at times and is rather slow at realizing his error, such as when he trained Bullet ’s squad dancing techniques for 3 days before realizing he made a mistake, having mixed up the words “troop” with “troupe”. This is shown again during Noel Vermillion ’s arcade when he mistakes her for a cross-dressing boy.

“Nobody” is a pale young girl with eyes that are always closed and wispy white hair with black tips; she has a small ahoge pointing out of her hair. She wears a long black cloth over her nearly naked body and two black sleeves across her arms that extend from her hands to her upper arm; the sleeves have golden bangles holding them in place. In what little clothing she wears, “Nobody” has small black and white panties. Below this, she has long silver socks that reach up to her inner thigh; on the shins, there are two small, black diamonds embroidered onto the socks. “Nobody” wears small brown shoes with a golden rimming.

Nu-13’s design is wholly based on the Mecha Musume concept, a design motif that includes 'humanizing' machines or inanimate objects. In the case of Nu, hers is based on swords. When not in battle, she appears as a young girl with sunken red eyes and long silver hair tied into a braid held together by a single blade. She wears a bright jumpsuit and a long flowing cape with red-colored tape seals attached to the end. She wears a magic power regulator eyepatch on her right eye and she is barefoot having blue nail polish on both fingers and toes. In BlazBlue: Phase Shift 4 , her said right eye is revealed to be with black sclera, and when shown, emanates blue vein marks that slowly take over her right side.
When assuming battle position, she dons futuristic sword-themed armour that features a set of eight disembodied blades that float behind her in a wing-like formation. She now dons a visor with a singular eye and horns at the end.
In BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger , Noel Vermillion once saw a “younger” version of Nu. She wore a blue dress and had much longer, silver hair, resembling Noel physically. This version is also seen when Nu is affected by Amane’s Astral Heat, but she has her eyepatch in this occasion. [1]
When she shuffles Noel’s childhood memories, she wears a white patient uniform and her white hair is loose.
In the end of BlazBlue: Centralfiction , Nu wears an off-white dress, she no longer wears an eyepatch but has bandages on her right eye instead.

Nu is shown to have a split personality; one that is an emotionless girl that follows orders without question and the other as a yandere who is in love with Ragna the Bloodedge .
Being a Prime Field, Nu’s emotions were sealed away, becoming little more than an emotionless machine who kills anyone that obstructs her programming or whomever she determines to be hostile. She was originally programmed to terminate anyone she deems hostile that came near the Gate. When conversing with anyone that isn’t or doesn’t mention Ragna, she speaks like a machine or in an emotionless tone and is only interested in her orders.
When around, hearing about or thinking about Ragna on the other hand, her personality changes to someone who is absolutely infatuated with him. In her mind, Nu must have Ragna to herself, and anyone who gets in her way must die, thus making her an obsessive yandere instead of an possessive one (possessive yanderes tend to kill their love interest to avoid losing them to someone else). Nu’s love for Ragna has also given her the habit of using the most sexual innuendo out of the entire cast in the BlazBlue series. This especially the case when around Ragna, as she is usually giving him a “naughty” smile when using innuendo around him. However, what makes Nu different to traditional yanderes is that while she changes to a person who is in love with Ragna, she doesn’t necessarily have a “deredere” side to her personality as she still tends to say dark and graphic things to others and may still act emotionless even in Ragna’s presence.
This unrequited love is due to a unique interpretation of what little of Saya’s memories of Ragna she possesses as a direct result of being a clone of his sister, which developed into a romantic affection and the belief that they were destined to be bound together by fate. However, Nu has a unique interpretation of showing affection to Ragna, which involves “killing” each other, knowing that neither herself nor Ragna can’t permanently stay dead due to the Life Link they share. This is because Ragna had destroyed two of Nu’s previous undeveloped bodies in the past before the events of Calamity Trigger which were unable to react let alone speak. This gave her the impression that “killing” each other is the best and only way to show affection to Ragna and it is because of this fact that despite loving Ragna a lot, she tends to still fight him in a rather brutal manner when they engage in battle.
Over time Nu’s yandere personality becomes more dominant over her emotionless weapon personality, mostly loosening Hazama’s control over her in the process. In BlazBlue: Chronophantasma , she seems to have acquired habits from the time her soul inhabited Lambda-11’s body, such as counting hits in German when performing Sword Summoner, like she used to do as Lambda. By BlazBlue: Centralfiction not only has she gone AWOL in search of Ragna and a way to merge with him, she shows a lot more emotion even when she’s engaged in emotionless speak. Many characters, such as Nine, have noticed that she’s beginning to act a lot more different than how she used to. As a result, she mostly speaks in a more “humanly” manner rather than the monotone, machine-like voice she had around others in the past. However, Nu’s personality is still largely dark, when put mildly; by this stage, she can be seen as cold, cruel and sadistic, enjoying the pain she inflicts on anyone and everyone that isn’t Ragna or that she thinks is getting in her way. An example of this includes her fight against Mu-12, where she constantly promises that she (i.e. Noel Vermillion) will pay for denying her wishes to be with Ragna and for killing her at the end of BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, saying that she will force her to suffer what she had suffered as her soul wandered the Boundary for what felt like an eternity.
At heart, however, Nu is a sad and lonely girl who has endured roughly four years of nightmarish torture and experimentation by Control Organization’s science division, clinging to her memories of Ragna to give her hope. It is for this reason that she hates the world and wants to merge with Ragna to form the Black Beast. This hatred extends to Hazama due to the experimentation that he, along with the entire Control Organization science division, did on her, but has kept quiet about it throughout her time serving them until she breaks free from their control.
Despite being known to love Ragna very much, Nu can sometimes show anger against Ragna. The first time was in BlazBlue: Chronophantasma when he declares that he would “save” her, causing her much confusion turned frustration, turned murderous rage. Similarly, in The Wheel of Fortune Drama CD she becomes heartbroken and feels betrayed after a long string of confessions to Ragna lead him to attack her out of annoyance because she wouldn’t stop talking. This caused Nu to mentally snap before breaking out in maniacal laughter, beating Ragna into unconsciousness, brutally murdering an already incapacitated Tsubaki and forcing Ragna into the Kiln with her.

The Origin is a fair-skinned young woman with very long blond hair. She had a lot of stitches, and red and blue tubes were connected to her body while she was crucified in the Master Unit.
There is a mark on her lower body.

Little is known about the Origin’s personality, but she has a strong attachment towards Ragna the Bloodedge , making him into her Centralfiction . She hated the world she made, and her only wish was to be with Ragna, even though, according to her, he tried to kill her and became a Black Beast some time in the past.

A lean and tall young man with long auburn hair covered by a black beanie with multiple badges. Akio wore a long-sleeved, light purple shirt with horizontal dark purple stripes decorating it; the sleeves of the shirt had stitched extensions that covered his hands. His look was complete with pure black trousers and a black sash over his shoulders.

Ragna is modeled after the traditional Japanese manga and anime hero. He is a young adult with white spiky hair and heterochromia: his left eye being green and his right being red, a side effect from assimilating the Blue Grimoire into his body. His clothing consists of a hybrid of modern, futuristic and old features. He wears a vibrant red sleeved jacket with two long thin tails hanging from the back. Under it is a black shirt with three red belts and also several belts covering his right arm. He wears a pair of black gloves with a red shell on the backs of the hands. His right arm is a black mechanical prosthetic made of the Blue Grimoire, after having lost his original arm when he was younger. The shell opens up to reveal the grimoire whenever he utilizes it. He wears a black hakama and steel-toed red boots. He also has a small black birthmark on the center of his chest. Ragna has a bright green stud earring on his left ear, not on the lobe of the ear but further up.
When he was in his mid-teens, he had blond hair and green eyes. Because of the trauma he experienced, his hair turned white. After he is taken care of by Jūbei, he wears a traditional Japanese style sleeveless red turtle neck top, long black gloves that reach to his elbows, baggy black pants, and red shoes with high cuffs and steel toes.

Ragna with his hair wet.

In BlazBlue: Alter Memory during the hot spring scene in Episode 5, Ragna wears a pair of black, baggy swim shorts; his, otherwise, spiky hair is pushed down from the water and comes down just below his nose. Also, he is seen both shirtless and barefoot. However, most of his torso is wrapped in bandages.
His swimsuit in Chronophantasma is different than that of Alter Memory – he now wears an open, long sleeve red-and-black hoodie, which shows his chest and eight-pack abs, orange-and-red swimming trunks with black flames on each side, and red-and-black sandals. The small black birthmark on his chest was exposed while wearing the outfit.

Ragna is sardonic, rude, and abrasive to anyone he comes across. He is also quick to anger, stubborn, and never misses a chance to use as much vulgar language as possible. In this regard, Ragna is similar to the stereotypical anime delinquent. This is caused mainly by Yūki Terumi practically destroying Ragna’s life, which has created a mass of hatred in him; stronger than that of any other individual. Ragna often becomes infuriated at first sight of Yūki Terumi, which he and/or Hazama often takes advantage of through taunting him. However, even in cases where he cannot win or is on the brink of death, Ragna possesses an undying will and persistence, refusing to give up even when he is clearly out matched, something many characters either hate or admire.
Beneath his gruff exterior, however, Ragna does possess a softer, more compassionate side. He chooses to keep up his public front because of the path he chose – that of revenge, as well as accepting the fact that he’s still someone who’s committed crimes such as murder. He does genuinely care for certain people, such as Taokaka, Rachel, Noel, Jūbei and, to an extent, his brother, Jin. Ragna seems to disdain killing, refusing to kill Terumi after he defeated him in the end of Continuum Shift . Ragna spared Arakune’s life due to Litchi’s pleas, and in his Arcade Mode, he directly references his promise to Litchi to let him live after he defeats him. In the end of Chronophantasma , Ragna saved Nu-13 instead of killing her and he told Hakumen to not kill her. Also, despite Jin’s role in the destruction of his life, still cares for him as a brother. He also expressed anguish when Nu sacrificed her life to protect him, despite the past animosity he harbored for her and later declares he will “save” her due to prior events that shifted his beliefs. This side of his personality becomes more apparent as the story progresses, though he still keeps a rough exterior around others that don’t know about his soft side.
Later on after the events of Chronophantasma , Ragna goes through more personal development which changes his opinions about the reasons he fights. He starts to rely on his own strength instead of the Blue Grimoire, as its power is to “steal” instead of “protect” as he finally understands the notion that the power from it was never truly his to activate so freely without fully realizing what it is. He declares that he will no longer fight to destroy and for revenge, and instead, decides to fight in order to protect his loved ones in spite of what he's lost in his life. This as aforementioned extends to Nu where he declares he’ll save her instead of destroying her.
Furthermore, he then by proxy becomes more aware of how the world's possibilities and timelines revolve around himself within Centralfiction , as well as his own connection to the Master Unit. Thus, Ragna resolves to fight for the sake of migrating people's dreams and possibilities into a brand new world, and despite trying to take on the task alone, he learns to accept help from others in achieving this goal.
In terms of comic relief, Ragna is often the straight-man of several situations that he himself cannot comprehend, mainly in several gag scenarios at his expense.

Taro is a young man with black hair, amber eyes, and dark skin. He wears a white T-shirt, which has kanji written onto it, and his military uniform hangs over his shoulders. The only time he wore his uniform properly was when the climate control was broken.

Taro seems to be a friendly and sociable guy. He gets along with Akane and Jin very well, calling the latter “Jinny” instead of using his actual name. Taro can be serious at times, but he is easily distracted. He likes to mess with Jin sometimes, to the latter’s annoyance. He has a tendency to give people nicknames.
He can be very serious while fighting against opponents, such as rescuing Mai from Yukianesa possessed Jin, while also tried to calm his roommate down. Due to fact, he’s been entrusted by Kagura to look over Jin.

When Saya was under Hades: Izanami ’s control, she is a young woman with very long, violet hair tied into a ponytail, and soulless red eyes. She wore a white-and-red Imperial Japanese-style outfit, tied with a light blue sash, with a golden crown and a dark cape over her shoulders.
When she was a child, she had medium-length blond hair, green eyes, and wore a white dress.
In the flashbacks presented in BlazBlue: Centralfiction ’s story mode, she wears a bright blue dress with long sleeves and a white collar.

As a young girl, Saya loved her family and always looked up to Ragna, but had a strained relationship with Jin due to his jealousy. Even as she is being possessed by Hades: Izanami, the Goddess remarks that she can 'feel' the strong attachment that the real Saya has towards Ragna.
Saya also despises Terumi, due to the fact that he destroyed her life, and used her for his plans to destroy the world. This hatred is strong enough to affect even Izanami, who is normally emotionless, and simply dislikes him for his “playful” nature; Izanami clearly stated that those are Saya’s feelings.

Sechs is a tall and slender man with a few similar traits to Murakumo Units . He has messy, shoulder-length white hair with a black streak shaped like a V and piercing green eyes. He wears an open, red-collared shirt with a black blazer, a long jacket, black trousers, and black shoes. His Crystal was just above the center of his collar bone.

Cold, mysterious, and unreadable. No one could tell what Sechs was thinking, being silent and keeping all he could to himself. He spoke little, even to his fellow Sages, and when he did, each word was filled with a passively strong tone that gave off a sense of wisdom and enlightenment. Sechs demonstrated a small amount of cockiness and self-worth, finding that he was above fighting with some individuals, and didn’t wish to dirty his hands. Caring little for others, he even sent Acht to her death, barely caring as he did so.
Before his interactions with the mysterious crystal, Sechs was described to being similar to Tōya Kagari , being far kinder and softer.

Seven is a tall young man with a pale slender face, light blue eyes and long, blond, shoulder blade length hair. He wears a pair of sleek rimless glasses with a button up white trench coat with golden buttons, underneath this, he wears a pair of sensible white jeans and formal black shoes. His look is topped off with a blue scarf underneath his coat, the purple hat that all Ten Sages wear and a white and black cape with golden embroidery.

Unlike his associate Eight , Seven is cool, calm and focused – saying little unless needed. His calm demeanor helps lend strength to his words, allowing him to get what he desires. Compared to the other young Ten Sages, Seven is far more serious about his work and how to go about it.

Bang is a young adult man with spiky swift back, slightly long brown hair, and amber eyes. He has a long, X-shaped scar across his face, inflicted upon him by Jin Kisaragi. [1] He wears a dark green modified ninja outfit with a big red scarf, silver gauntlets, black fingerless gloves, dark green hakama pants that expose his thighs. He carries the Phoenix Wing: Rettenjō on his back.
When he was younger, his hair was in a messy ponytail, and had no scar. He wore a skin-tight, sleeveless top, dark green hakama, and he was barefoot. [2]

Bang can be quite over-exuberant, and he is prone to speeches and tangents as well as making dramatic entrances. He has a romantic fascination with Litchi, always willing to go charging in headlong if he sees someone making her upset. He is a man with great pride in his home and tolerates no ill words towards it or his master. Though many members of the cast ridicule him and think of him as annoying, he protects those he cares about (such as Carl and Tao) with his life, and has a heart of gold. He thinks of himself as the “Hero of Justice”, and the one to punish all evil doers.
Bang, however, possesses a lot of standards that display quite a bit of wisdom. He is capable of eventually forgiving Jin despite his murder of Tenjō Amanohokosaka, admitting himself to be an idiot as he was well-aware of how brutal-and-needless the casualties on both sides of the Ikaruga Civil War were. Likewise, he is not that overly blinded with his infatuation with Litchi that even if she asked nicely, he would not hand over his nail, recognizing her allegiance with the Control Organization. Even so, he also did not blame Litchi for her allegiance and quickly deduced that Relius is behind it.
A trait that he shared with Litchi is his genuine love for children; he would do everything to protect them, and the sight of them being hurt badly and for no reason are one of the things that would tempt him to consider breaking his 'no-kill' policy, as shown in his rage towards Hazama in his Story Mode when he saw him beat down Carl and Tao for no reason. However, he also has a bad habit of instantly calling some of the children he saw as 'his apprentice'. Carl has begun to take that consideration well and nicely, but Platinum is highly annoyed at this treatment.
In the anime, BlazBlue: Alter Memory , Bang’s personality is almost reversed. He is calm, quiet, reserved and respectful. All negative connotations associated with him seemingly disappear, and in scenes involving Litchi, he is shown to treat her with dignity and respect. Likewise, he has also grown to be close to those who have worked to gain his respect overtime, as his opinion of Ragna has changed during the times of Chronophantasma to Centralfiction .

Kuon is a young girl with very long blond hair tied in pigtails with pink ribbons that reach to her legs and part of hair down which is back length. Her eyes are blue. She wears a pink sweater vest with long sleeves, a white collar with red ribbon tie, short red skirt, and red thigh high stockings, and brown shoes.
Once she had joined Hakuō North Academy, she began to wear its standard secondary year female uniform – a simple navy-style uniform with a red bow, and simple gray short skirt.
At the pool, Kuon wore a bright red, two-piece bikini. The top half’s straps elegantly wrapped around her neck.
In Lost: Memories , Kuon wore less extravagant ribbons, and had her hair cut so it reaches to the small of her back.

Kuon is a very hot-headed young woman. She has no tolerance for any form of malfeasance and will often try to become a white knight to those in need, of which often lands her in trouble. As well as this, she has a legendary temper, leading to her moniker; “Blazing Witch Stroheim”.
Even though she is somewhat hot-headed, Kuon is a bright young woman with an intelligent head on her shoulders. She has good classical knowledge, easily recognizing a butchered quote from Augustus Caesar, and suggesting that a quote from Caligula would have been better.
Originally, she would take on her own personal problems by herself, but by Lost: Memories , she has been more willing to accept help from others more often when needed. She has been noted to be an extremely hard worker, but she has learned to relax and take a break now and then thanks to Els and Ringo.

Ciel also wears a pair of white gloves, a black-and-white mini skirt, white thigh high socks, and black ballet flats. She has a mysterious device with her, numbered twelve ( 十二 , jūni ) .

Spinner was a tall, slender man with ghostly pale skin and short, ash colored hair. His eyes had abnormal black sclera and white irises. He had large canines that protruded like fangs, ears with several studs decorating them and an abnormally long tongue with a tattoo in the center. He wore a formal suit with golden lining alongside suit trousers and plain black shoes. He had a small tattoo on his forehead and another tattoo on the left side of his neck. He also wore a translucent purple scarf that came down to his feet.

His body being the Susanoo Unit itself, he shares many similar features with its previous wielder, Hakumen , but bigger, bulkier, has a different color scheme, and overall fox design motif. His armor and hair are black with glowing green highlights, and eyes on his armor are green as well. The horns now give the impression of fox ears. His hair is untied, but the sideburns are held by metallic hair clips. The biggest contrast with Hakumen, is that he has a face with blazing green eyes and a mouth full of sharp fangs. The pauldrons also have teeth and horns like those on his head, and he has green glowing crystals on his hips. A tail completes his beastly features.

Susanoo is more collected than Terumi, but beneath the seemingly stoic demeanor is a boiling, explosive rage. He hates being bound to the Susanoo Unit, and uses that hatred to fuel his destructive tendencies. He still looks down on others, but instead of displaying a playful and mocking attitude, he treats them with utter disgust, referring to them as either trash or waste. He constantly reminds those who dare to defy him the fact that he is a true god.
Although prideful, Susanoo despises his meaning of existence ever since he gained his own will. As Amaterasu creates, and he destroys her creations, they are essentially linked to one another. Whether he destroys for her sake or for himself, his actions ultimately adhere to what she desires from him, and he hates her for that. To prove this point, Susanoo expresses that her suffering is his salvation to ultimately seek true freedom from the humans that have abused their creative prowess to cause catastrophes in many different timelines/possibilities and from Amaterasu's will.

Suzukaka, like all Kaka, exhibits the strong traits that the race has; having the sinister, toothy smile and blood red eyes hidden underneath the hood of the specialised Kaka jacket. However, all similarities stop there. Suzukaka has long red hair in layers coming out of the back of her very unique jacket; the jacket in question is creamy white in color and is ripped just below the collarbone, only just held together onto her body by two belts. Her jacket is also unique in the fact that the paws have small spikes coming out of them.
Suzukaka’s body is covered in huge white scars, decorating her lower abdomen, her right hip and outer right thigh. She wears nothing more than a belt and what seems to be rags of her jacket to cover the lower half of her body.

Taokaka is a rather unique take on the catgirl archetype with brown skin and long blond hair tied up into two braids and a black cat tail with a faded white tip. She seems to spend her entire time wearing a beige-colored hoodie with a cat hood and long cat-themed sleeves that cover her arms. She wears a pair of unusually-designed high-heel boots with the same cat theme but appears to be more fit for a creature with high ankles. According to concept art, Taokaka typically dresses skimpy underneath the hoodie, wearing only red panties with red straps. Taokaka’s actual face has been the subject of interest by both the characters and audience alike; her hood has been stated to conceal her facial features and she never removes it. All that can be seen are a pair of red beady eyes and an ever-constant toothy grin that tends to emulate emotions when conveying facial expressions. When co-creator Daisuke Ishiwatari was questioned about Taokaka’s true appearance in an interview, he responded that he wanted to leave it to the players’ imaginations. However, he does confirm that her shadowed visage is not her true face.
Her younger design shows a smaller, chibi-like body with shorter braids and no shoes.
In BlazBlue: Alter Memory during the hot spring scene in Episode 5, she wears yellow wraps on her top and another wrap on her bottom that resembles cycling shorts and is the first time to see her without the hoodie but maintains her facial features and wears paw-like gloves.

Taokaka is the personification of innocence in the BlazBlue world. She is a happy-go-lucky catgirl who only wishes the best for her friends and family. Her only desire is to protect those she holds dear to her heart, or who offer her food (in her mind anyone who offers her food is a good person).
Unfortunately, she is also the least intelligent character in BlazBlue . Like most cats, Taokaka’s daily routine consists of eating and sleeping, and she can, and often will forget anything she does or is told to do within three steps or seconds. Of course, it goes without saying that she is not totally dumb. Taokaka often gives nicknames to those she meets so she can try to easily remember them later. She does actually know who they are, but prefers the nickname routine.
Of course, much of her simple-minded traits can be compared to how a cat’s mindset actually works, especially when it comes to how fascinated by things she can be (such as a pair of breasts) or how her mind tends to seemingly drift away from more serious things.

Akane is a young man with slightly messy shoulder-length auburn hair which is worn half up. He has bright blue eyes and wears a typical military uniform except he does not wear the uniform jacket, instead, only a military vest with a white collar shirt with folded sleeves accompanied by a white modified ribbon tie.
After he graduated, he wears a standard NOL uniform.

Akane seems to be a calm, collected, kind and mellow person. Although there are times when he has been caught 'checking out' Tsubaki, much to her dismay and retaliates by calling him a pervert. He is known to be sarcastic.


BlazBlue

She has red eyes and long purple hair. She wears a kimono and carries a bag which holds a katana inside.

At first glance Saya seems like a normal girl with good manners and polite speech, but beneath that appearance she is someone that will use deadly force with no hesitation in order to get rid of obstacles. She is proud of being part of the Terumi family despite being responsible for its destruction, and is even obsessed with it to the point she will kill her brother to revive it, even though she shows anger of hearing Naoto being killed by Spinner’s bugs and Valkenhayn Hellsing, possibly because she wanted to kill him herself.

Terumi wears a hooded yellow cape with black markings and large rolled-up cuffs along with long black ribbons and bandages across his arms. He also retains a few articles of clothing from Hazama’s form, including an open shirt beneath his vest that shows his chest, a loose black tie, two belts, black pants and the same steel-toed-shoes with knives hidden inside their heels.
When he activates Overdrive mode, his hood comes off for a brief moment, revealing his green upwards-spiking hair that both Hazama and Kazuma have involved whenever Terumi fully took over their bodies. And like his two vessels, Terumi has the same golden snake-slit-styled eyes.
In his ghost form Terumi is a black mass with green energy on him with his face having a wide red smile and only one glowing green eye. During the Great Dark War, before fusing with Kazuma, Terumi wore a Magick Association uniform shirt, a tattered orange cape with a hood, and long black ribbons across his arms.
During Phase Shift 1 , his hair is not shown, as he is always cloaked. However, concept art in later art-books has revealed that Terumi’s hair remains the same as it is today: spiked-up and green-colored. Whilst as the Black Susanoo he resembles a shadow version of Hakumen with green lines all over him with his mask having a glowing smile and evil, glowing eyes.

Cruel, insane, sadistic, selfish, yet sharp-witted and cunning, Terumi delights in the suffering of others, both physically and mentally, and relishes pure chaos. He happily provokes and manipulates others for his own amusement, and ruthlessly tortures anyone who irritates him or gets in his way. Unsurprisingly, this has earned him the contempt of almost every character in the BlazBlue universe, most notably Ragna, Kokonoe, and Nine. However, he is prone to enraged tantrums and sometimes panics when things don’t go his way, and absolutely hates being touched by other people. In the English scripts, his common way of swearing involves religious and excretory curses, while he resorts to sexual lingo whenever he is personally angered or disgusted.
At first when he was possessing both Kazuma and Hazama, Terumi's personality influenced their independent traits to merge with his own, which made the two of them rather affable at best alongside Terumi's blatant cruelty. However, as time goes on due to the fact that the Mind Eater curse inflicted upon Terumi caused his fusion with both vessels to be incomplete, Terumi’s personality was instead replicated by Hazama himself mixed in with his affable traits; Terumi's own consciousness slept deep within Hazama for some time to make up for this before being forcibly materialized/split apart from both of his vessels, with Terumi's own will regardless being the stronger one that influenced both vessels to follow his way of life.
Furthermore when the two end up separated as of Centralfiction , Terumi served as a more clear foil to both Hazama and his original self, Susanoo; Hazama as a result of gaining his true own will became less outwardly-barbaric, spoke formally more often and was less willing to interfere with other people's businesses most of the time, while Terumi was shown to be more blunt and prone to inflicting violence compared to Hazama's more passively-manipulative side which earned him the status as a wild card of sorts due to manifesting his own will apart from Terumi's. It is to the point where even Terumi himself cannot fully trust Hazama's ambiguity in regards to specific duties, and when Terumi was greatly weakened at one point, Hazama was able to house him in his own body as usual but without any of Terumi's influence interfering with Hazama's newfound will.
Meanwhile, his personality as Susanoo is more composed and focused on rage and hatred rather than the sadistic tendencies displayed as Terumi. As Susanoo, "Terumi" is more collected, but beneath the seemingly stoic demeanor is a boiling and explosive rage which he uses to fuel his destructive tendencies. He views all others as beneath him and treats them with utter disgust, referring to them as either trash or waste (his primary Japanese pronoun for everyone is "temē"). He constantly reminds those who dare to defy him the fact that he is a true god.
Although overconfident and prideful, Susanoo ever since he gained his own will, despises his meaning of existence as the brother of Amaterasu and they are essentially linked to one another, with his actions ultimately adhere to what she desires from him, and he hates her for that. Thus, Susanoo seeks to destroy all of her creations out of spite for this fact and expresses that her suffering is his salvation while seeking true freedom. Also as Terumi, he states another reason for his desire for freedom is to punish the humans who have tried to abuse god's power by causing many catastrophic events throughout many timelines/possibilities, including those who have abused the emptied Susanoo Unit for their own desires.

Tomonori had silver fur with black stripes, and wore an outfit similar to Jūbei’s, but colored magenta pink rather than yellow. The jacket also had black arrows that seemingly crawled up the paws.

Tomonori was a stern young beastman and polar opposite to his brother, Jūbei. Where Jūbei was concerned for righteousness and order, Tomonori was concerned for faith. Whenever Tomonori spoke, he often addressed others coldly and quickly, often leading to short discussions as he cut to the point of the matter. As well as placing a lot on faith, he also acknowledged that he had free will, and refused to be Clavis Alucard ’s servant, meaning that the orders he was given, were not often followed out correctly.


BlazBlue

Torakaka appears identical to Taokaka, save for some key differences: her jacket is of a darker color, she has pigtails in lieu of braids, a tiger-like tail, and darker skin.

Torakaka seems to be mature, intelligent, and a kind person. She cares for Taokaka, and helps her when she was a kitten by her hopes that she will become a better guardian to protect the Kaka Village .


BlazBlue

Totokaka has the appearance of an elderly Kaka with sliver hair and a messy sliver tail. She wears a skull mask to conceal her face and, like all Kakas, she wears a light brown jacket and her own unique, red fish zipper. She carries a cat-head staff with a crude face drawn onto it.
In her youth, Totokaka wore a normal Kaka kitten jacket with its signature bow and had light blue hair, like Torakaka , her hair came out of the jacket in a messy style. Two notable differences about her appearance as a kitten was that she had a small light blue fringe coming out of the hood of the jacket and a small skull on the tip of the hood.

In her old age, Totokaka is a wise, mature, and calm Kaka. She is a responsible and caring leader who prioritizes the safety and well-being of her villagers above everything, and is deeply concerned for the future of her race. She is also gracious and hospitable towards almost any outsiders who come into her village, regardless of their background.

Tager is massive in stature, standing just under 8 feet, and has a body with muscles bulging out of each and every corner. His most defining trait, however, is his crimson red skin, a side effect of being injected with demon cells. Tager has spiky black hair, possessing a white streak. He wears orange goggles without reflection that do not show his eyes. He wears a dark red-colored 7th Agency uniform, but with a sleeveless top. He has golden rods attached on the darker red cross on his back, and two black gauntlets made of complex machinery.

Tager is a serious, mature cyborg. Well known as a fearsome mechanical juggernaut to the enemies of the 7th Agency, he is feared by many, having earned him the alias “Red Demon” whereas in truth, he is very calm and calculated, only engaging in violence when necessary. He places great trust and faith in Kokonoe, and will follow orders without complaint. However, there have been some occasions where he follows his own intuition and judgment to choose what to do in a situation, especially true in the case of orders he believes to be rash, immoral or cruel.
When fighting, Tager can become fierce and determined, taunting his opponent while fighting and goading them into anger, but will be quick to stop when victorious or no longer in danger.
Within the 7th Agency he is known as a solid, dependable soldier, a resourceful and reliable field agent and a passionate scientist. Relationships with his colleagues, both former and current, are both professional and amicable. In Calamity Trigger, he is seen chatting pleasantly with Litchi, then a member of the 7th Agency, about his new assignment as Kokonoe’s field agent; Litchi mentions that Kokonoe’s tasks must be gruelling to give “our Tager” cause for complaint, signifying his established status as a quiet, skilled professional. He tests the 7th Agency’s newest recruit Makoto without reservation, he gives her his open and honest opinion each time and the two have a relationship somewhat akin to a father and a daughter as the story progresses. When Tager bests Makoto in combat in his Arcade story INCEPTION , he offers her advice on how to progress in life, with friends and on the battlefield, baffling Kokonoe and emotionally touching Makoto.
However, when encountering Arakune, he expresses his heartfelt grief that someone he had once seen as a brother has become something far from human, and sees his duty of bringing him down as a kindness to a suffering loved one. Whenever Kokonoe orders to kill Arakune, Tager will always hesitate and allow him to escape.
Tager’s hobbies include reading mystery novels and constructing ships in bottles.

Sōichirō appeared to be an intelligent man with feminine features. He had bluish sliver jaw-length hair, yellow eyes and wears circular glasses. He wore a modified white coat and a black turtleneck shirt underneath with navy trousers, black boots, and a long bluish sliver scarf that reached his ankles.
At the pool, Sōichirō wore only his trademark scarf and tailor-made, tight white swim pants dotted with blue stars.

Eccentric and big-headed, Sōichirō’s real motives remained a mystery to everyone who knew him. After the loss of his parents, he developed a dangerous philosophy about humans and how they work. Although few could tell because of his bizarre persona.
He would often introduce himself with an odd title, usually to do with being the “patron Saint of children”. Cruelly, Sōichirō would treat Es like a doll, not caring for her individual self, only viewing her as a machine to be used and thrown away. When he found out that Tōya is a clone created from the Original Grymoire, although he hid it from him, no longer saw him as a living person and began to view him as nothing more than a “corpse”.
Although he never believed himself to be one, Sōichirō is also a hypocrite of his own beliefs. While he states everything he does is for the sake of humanity, he shows a lack of empathy for them, as he sacrificed and killed the Unions he was supposed to cure to harvest their crystals, forced Mei into working for using her father’s condition, guilted Tōya into helping him, showed no concern for Akira after removing his own crystal, and savagely beating Hinata for ruining his plans.

Noel is a young girl with long back length blond hair (although she covers her hair in her blue balmoral cap , making it seem like she has short hair), and green eyes. She wears a Control Organization blue cloak with hood, long black socks, and blue military boots. When she is in battle, she wears a jolting sapphire Control Organization uniform dress with a white collar and a short red tie, with two separate long sleeves that have two heavy metal bands and a long red strap, white gloves, and carries two giant pistols linked together, the Bolverk. As a replica of a young Saya, Noel shares her physical appearance, save that her hair is of a darker color.
She later wears this outfit when Rachel takes her to the Cauldron where she was smelted by Hazama to become Mu-12 in order to battle her true form and gained her powers, and in BlazBlue: Centralfiction , Ragna requests Trinity to use her magic to give her some clothes while she was nude after she fuses with the last remaining soul.
In the end of her gag ending in BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger , she wears Litchi’s standard outfit. But the outfit she wears is orange instead of red and her hair is tied in pigtails.
In her true form as Mu-12 , Noel wears her pre-battle outfit but without the horned helmet on her head after Ragna destroys it by connecting through his Idea Engine at the cost of losing his left arm in the near end of BlazBlue: Continuum Shift . This outfit is also seen in her true form's arcade ending or in Story Mode at BlazBlue: Chronophantasma and BlazBlue: Chronophantasma Extend . In the anime cutscene of the game, Noel's long blond hair while in this form was not in a distinct fray unlike on her portrait. Noel also wears her battle form as both her pauldrons and her Murakumo wings were missing, finally shows her being backless. In BlazBlue: Alter Memory , she still wears the broken horned helmet and pauldrons while in this form and her long blond hair finally shows in a full fringe.
When she was adopted by the Vermillion family, she had her hair cut short and wore a white shirt with long sleeves, a black tie, a long, black skirt, and white stockings with dark brown shoes. However, in Amane’s Astral Heat, she is shown wearing a red tie and blue skirt.
When she was in the Military Academy, she had slightly shoulder-length hair and wore the standard school uniform with a short skirt, long white stockings and brown shoes. Her P.E uniform was a simple white shirt and black panties.
When using the Golden Angel gel, Noel gained a bright green two-piece bikini; the centerpiece of the swimsuit was held together by orange straps in a mesh-like fashion. Noel also possessed a standard Academy issued swimsuit, which was full body in its design, and was colored black, white, and blue. The Academy’s insignia was inscribed on the breast.
While doing her survival training, Noel wore a short jacket over her school shirt and tie, with the jacket having the Academy emblem emblazoned upon its back. She wore short shorts held together by a pocket belt, and knee length, military-grade boots.
In Chronophantasma , Noel is given a new outfit by Kokonoe so that she isn’t associated with the Control Organization. It is somewhat similar to her original outfit but doing away with the sleeves, replacing it with a sleeveless collared cloth, leaving only a pair of white gloves and has a short skirt. She now wears two large holsters on her back, which house Bolverk. Her long hair now flows freely with the addition of two blue hairpieces on opposite sides of her head, which are meant to restrain her power as the Eye of the Blue.
In Episode 5 of Alter Memory , Noel is seen wearing a pink swim top and bikini and her long blond hair is tied in a high ponytail.
Her swimsuit in Chronophantasma is different than in BlazBlue: Alter Memory , and she now wears a white and gray high-neck two-piece bikini with black line designs.
In the end of Centralfiction , Noel dresses as a nun and now works at the reconstruction of Celica’s church along with Lambda.

Noel is the definition of the “shrinking violet” archetype. She is shy, clumsy, and tends to get worked up over the smallest things. Noel is incredibly self-conscious, especially regarding her notoriously flat chest. She can be socially awkward at times, but this has actually served as an endearing trait, which earned her friendship with Tsubaki and Makoto. In spite of this, she is shown to be quite passionate and determined when motivated, and is loyal to her friends and allies.
Then there’s the soft and unfettered side to her personality that shows compassion to every person and being, and how everyone is being treated. With her job out of the way, she enjoys relaxing with friends and reminiscing, nostalgically. When she cares for others’ well-being, she overlooks her traits and is much more responsible.
Noel also has many girly traits to her character including an interest in cute animals. Noel says that she can only recognize Makoto by her tail, which she cuddles with if given the chance. Noel is also obsessed with the panda Lao Jiu because of its adorable appearance. Noel also writes her own poems about finding true love.
She has a habit of apologizing for everything she does, and is extremely shy. All of this changes when she is reverted into her true form: Mu-12. In Chronophantasma , the experiences Noel has gone through have caused her to develop a new level of self-confidence and a determination to protect her friends.
The term "Lacking Lady", by Taokaka, directed at Noel, is one thing she can’t seem to stand, though being called a boy or a man is much worse. Each sets off a domino effect. The first makes her feel vulnerable and then ponder her role as a woman as she looks to other women with breasts bigger than hers, like Litchi or Bullet. The second triggers a dormant volcano of emotion that is then directed at the person who makes the remark. When she is finally angry, she puts aside all shame and forlorn and builds up the confidence to abuse her title of position to call it, “Obstruction of Justice!”

Ayame had long red hair that was held back by a silver ring similar to the ones in Tsubaki’s hair near the tip of the hair. Her clothes, fashioned by the Izayoi, are the same ones to be donned by her descendant many years later: a creamy white outfit that leaves no skin open to the elements and that was accompanied by black boots, the only main difference being that she lacked the gloves that accompanied the outfit.

Although little of her personality is shown, she was shown to be a polite young woman with admiration for Hakumen , like her descendant.


BlazBlue

Tsubaki is a young woman with long red hair and blue eyes. She wears a white cloak with an eagle eye mask to cover her face. When in battle, she wears the Izayoi hat, a Japanese-style military uniform, and black military boots.
When she is under the influence of Mind Eater spell, her eyes turn red and her entire uniform is given a brown-black shade. This change carries over in BlazBlue: Chronophantasma . In the Epilogue, she returns to her original appearance in BlazBlue: Continuum Shift, with her uniform being whiter than before, this continues into BlazBlue: Centralfiction .
When not on a mission as a member of the 0th Division, she wears a white cloak and black tights with her white military boots. Her hair is hidden under her white beret as well as under her cloak.
When she was in the Military Academy, she wore a blue headband with her standard uniform, except that she wears a longer skirt, black pantyhose (possibly instead shown as stockings and suspenders in Remix Heart ), and brown knee-high leather boots with small heels.
When she was a child, she had short hair kept in a bob cut, and wore a bright, pink kimono with flower patterns.
In the end of BlazBlue: Centralfiction , Tsubaki wears her Control Organization uniform similar to her 0th Division uniform and the color of her uniform is blue.

Tsubaki is a serious, mature, and intelligent person. She has always followed her orders from the Control Organization and has complete faith in them (likely to honor her family name). She has always had a childhood crush on Jin, and deeply loves and cares about him. She was also good friends with Noel, Makoto and Carl Clover when they were at Military Academy. However, when Hazama told Tsubaki about the alternative timeline where she was always with Jin as his secretary and how Noel usurped that position away from her, she becomes extremely jealous. She begins to harbor a hatred toward her best friend that, once manipulated by Emperor’s magic, evolves into a desire to kill her in order to be with Jin. Even after changing sides, she still respects Hakumen despite sharing different views.
In BlazBlue: Chronophantasma , Tsubaki’s personality had almost been completely overwritten by the effects of Mind Eater , the spell that Izanami cast on her to control her directly. Her devotion to the Control Organization had been taken to its greatest extreme, and she was little more than a mindless drone who lived to carry out any and all of the Emperor’s orders, including killing her own friends. When Jin confronted her, however, she showed signs of resistance due to her feelings for him.
After Makoto, Noel, and Jin manage to free her from the Mind Eater curse, she realizes that the Emperor’s justice is a lie and decides that she will fight for a justice she believes in as an individual: to fight for the people she loves and the friends she cherishes. Even after eventually learning of Ragna’s actual blood-relation to Jin, she still acts antagonistic towards him, but comically dreams of an awkward possibility of accepting him as a possible brother-in-law. Another comical instance of her otherwise serious personality is her being infatuated with romanticized  settings, as seen in Bang’s gag reel in Continuum Shift and/or her enthusiasm with the Six Heroes.
