BlazBlue Fighting Game Series Gets Anime Green-Lit

The wraparound jacket band for the second volume of the BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger fighting game's novelization announced on Saturday that an anime adaptation of the BlazBlue games has been green-lit.

Game designer Toshimichi Mori said in 2010 that he wanted to have his popular BlazBlue series adapted into animation. Game creators Arc System Works' European partner Zen United responded by launching an official petition to support the game's adaptation into an animation.

BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, the BlazBlue franchise's first title, debuted as an arcade game in 2008. BlazBlue: Clone Phantasma, the lastest game in the series, was released for the Nintendo 3DS in Japan in December 2012.

Arc System Works presented the story, cast, and staff for BlazBlue Alter Memory, the upcoming anime of its fighting game franchise, at its Arc System Works Festival event in Yokohama on Sunday.

The story is set in December of 2199, when the streets are full of anticipation for the end of the year and the start of the new one. Amid the celebrations, word spreads that Ragna the Bloodedge, an SS-class rebel with the highest ever bounty on his head, has appeared in the 13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi. The apparent aim of Ragna or the "Grim Reaper" is the destruction of the system controlling the world. To collect the bounty, a motley array of unrivaled fighters converge on Kagutsuchi.

The games' cast members reprise their roles in the anime:

Tomokazu Sugita as Ragna the Bloodedge

Kenji Nomura as Iron Tager
Asami Imai as Tsubaki Yayoi
Chie Matsuura as Kokonoe

Seiji Mizushima (Fullmetal Alchemist, Mobile Suit Gundam 00) is collaborating on the direction. Deko Akao (Arakawa Under the Bridge, Mysterious Girlfriend X) is overseeing the series scripts being co-written by Tatsuya Takahashi (The IDOLM@STER, Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~). Tomoyuki Shitaya (Bakuman., Hatsukoi Limited, Kiss×sis) is serving as both character designer and chief animation director. The rest of the staff includes:

The anime will premiere this fall.

All I have to say is this:
That art better not be final. Rachel looks ugh, and i can only imagine what the others look like. She doesnt even have her nonchalant look in that, it doesnt make sense. And when they dub it, it better have the same people
as the game.
