Blaz Blue: Continuum Shift - Story Mode Guide
 If anything I've written inspires you to join our beautiful site, please share the love and give me a referral. Section 1. Introduction This is a flowchart of every character's story mode in Blaz Blue: Continuum Shift. I have the fights labeled as "stage" and the decision branch paths as "branch." The fights I have notes under are to notify readers about any specific handicaps on either side of the fight. One positive change from Calamity Trigger is you do not have to go through and lose every fight to reach 100% and the game gives you a retry option if you lose. Only Ragna is available to play at first, clearing his story mode opens up other characters and clearing their story will open more. Section 2. Endings True Ending - The most cannon of all possible endings. Bad Ending - An ending that usually ends with something bad happening to the character. This ending will always be followed with a "Help me Kokonoe" scene. Funny Ending - Also called a "Gag Reel." These endings have the characters in hilarious situations and are not to be taken seriously. Some characters endings are only opened up when another character has obtained a certain ending. [I am compiling notes to try and find who's endings open up others] A * will reference a note at the bottom of each characters section. Section 3. How to Read [=====Character Name=====] Who you're playing as. [Stage # - Character] The Title order and character you will combat. [---Win : Story Arc] The next step of the story if you win the battle. [---Lose: Story Arc] The next step of the story if you lose the battle. If it says Game Over, there is no change if you lose. [---Note: Stuff] Any special notes about the battle, handicaps and such. I.E. Jin has two big ones in his story. Section 4. Characters  Ragna the Bloodedge Stage 1 - Carl

*This is not the "Bad" ending, but losing the fight does not prompt a retry. It is also needed to 100% the gallery. True End To unlock this story you must get the true end for Ragna, Jin, Noel, Rachel, Tsubaki, Hakumen and Hazama. All vs. pairings have you controlling the character on the left (1P side). Stage 1 Ragna vs. Hazama Note: Ragna cannot use his drive (D/ ) abilities. Hazama has his "Unlimited" powers.Stage 2 Ragna vs. Hazama Note: Both fighters have their "Unlimited" powers. Stage 3 Hakumen vs. Mu-12 Stage 4 Jin vs. Mu-12 Stage 5 Ragna vs. Mu-12 Note: Both fighters have their "Unlimited" powers. This fight is best of three rounds. *Completing the True End unlocks Mu-12 as a playable character. All in all this guide is now complete, but I am still considering it a work in progress. Not everyone will use the characters in the exact same order as I did. So if you are unable to obtain a certain ending, please leave a message here or send one to me and I will research and make corrections as necessary. ***EVERY TIME YOU USE THIS GUIDE KOKONOE CALLS YOU OUT*** Special Thanks and Legal -Setsuna for the header and tips on beautifying. -SideDish120 has been given rights to copy this to x360a.

First off i have to say excellent guide, this will definitely help with the gallery pictures for the "Mint Condition" trophy, now id like to ask if i have permission to link this in my guide under its trophy description ?
Second ... i like SideDishs attempt at the banner however i dont think a Calamity Trigger banner would be fitting for a story mode guide for Continuum Shift (ITS JUST NOT RIGHT xD) So heres my banner submission , whichever you prefer if up to you Kheapathic :]  Thirdly, The guide itself doesnt really need any help but i think you should utilize the bbcoding you have for example you could do something along the lines like this to make it look more organized :]  Ragna the BloodedgeStage 1 - Carl
Branch 1
Stage 2 - Taokaka
Stage 3 - Lambda-11
Stage 4 - Rachel Alucard
Stage 5a - Jin Kisaragi
Stage 5b - Jin Kisaragi
Stage 6 - Hazama
) abilities.Ragna's story opens up Noel, Rachel, Taokaka and Carl.

Okay I think it's done now until voices start popping up about certain paths not opening.
Setsuna, thank you for the header and please feel free to link it in your guide/roadmap. SideDish, again thank you for the header but I'm with Setsuna on this one. Glad y'all like it and hope it helps out any others who wander in here. |

I have a question:
I've followed the Tsubaki guide to the T, beating Carl with and without a Distortion Drive (and Astral Heat), beating Jin (with/with distortion drive/astral heat) and Noel with/without Distortion Drive and Astral Heat. Regardless of how I defeat Noel, I still get the "bad" ending. Am I missing something painfully obvious here?
