Blazblue Radio was renewed to, what I’m guessing, promote Continuum Shift on the PS3 and XBox 360. I’m not entirely sure though since Continuum Shift was released on July 1st and the radio is still continuing, not to mention it was only up to it’s 3rd episode at that point, perhaps the reason will be given on the first episode.

I skipped ahead to episode 3 due to wanting to listen to Nakamura Yuuichi’s guesting episode, I’ll go back and work through the rest of the episodes after I’m done with this episode.

– Sugita stuffs up reading Nakamura’s name while announcing him as the guest and redoes the introductions from the start.

– In one of the new corners they have an image and they have to finish it off in accordance to a set theme. This episode was a random rectangle with the theme being “Hazama’s important object”

– Imai drew Tetris lol “He might not have many friends… So this could be really important to him”

– Kanako drew a table, where Hazama huddles underneath.

– Nakamura drew Hazama’s glove out of the rectangle. That may be pretty spot on actually.

– Sugita drew a hat rack.

– Nakamura’s picture won, as expected I guess.

– Everyone’s seems to be playing BlazBlue against Nakamura in the next corner. Nakamura hasn’t played before though so the result’s gonna be pretty obvious I’m thinking.

– Kanako wins against Nakamura.

– Imai wins as well. She seems to have been practicing.

– Kanako and Imai comments on how serious Sugita looks while he’s playing. He finishes Nakamura off with a special attack as usual hah.

– Nakamura comments that he doesn’t think he can play Hazama and tries Bang instead. Sugita and Nakamura play again except Nakamura selects Bang and Sugita goes Hazama.

– Doesn’t seem like Sugita knows how to play Hazama so it’s a pretty even match.

– Sugita loses to Nakamura and they comment that Hazama is a pretty hard character.

I enjoyed this episode, Nakamura and Sugita are really close friends after all. Also I just started playing BlazBlue myself so I loved the actual gameplay segments of the show <3

Last episode :( Though there still is the special as well as more episodes in a new season or something I think, I’m not too sure, I’ll look into it more when I’m done with the special. This episode’s guest is Saitou Chiwa who provides the voice for Taokaka.

– While talking about how similar Chiwa was to Taokaka, Chiwa mentioned that at first she stayed close to the script while recording but then the staff encouraged her to adlib and with each recording she added more of her own adlibbing.

– Imai tells Chiwa to do her best in the Battle Batlle corner, seeing as it’s the final episode. Hold strong Sugita!

– First corner for the episode is Moshimo no Blazblue

– When asking about how well Chiwa can adlib Chiwa replies by saying “AVERAGE” pretty strongly.

– The episode’s scene was “If during a battle you notice that this was the last episode of Blazblue Radio what would you do?”

– Imai: “Oh… I should get the staff a present or something but…. etc. etc. AAH I’M DEAD *gets defeated*”

She mumbles on for quite a while.

– Chiwa: “Ehhh… since when was there a radio? Why haven’t I appeared yet.. Oh because I’m a pain to have as a guest…”

Hah chiwachiwaa. To which they vehemently refute.

– Sugita mixes in some other material as usual lol. Imai tells him off saying “Use some of Ragna’s own material for once!”

– Next is Battle Battle!

– The reward for Sugita losing seems to be the three of them going out to eat Tempura, to which Chiwa says “ehh.. I don’t really like tempura…”

– The last match that was sent in by a listener was influenced by the idea of “They can’t win so we’ll leave it up to luck!”

– Looks like they have to read whats on a card they pick out without making mistakes and the most coolest/cutest/ whatever is required to win.

– Ahaha the points taken have inflated for the corner, if Sugita doesn’t come first he pretty much loses all his points. Well I expected something like this hah.

– The sections are split into 4.

# Lots of Kanji

# Lots of English

# Hakata Accent

# Mixed

– Instead of Sugita being last all the time, they had their order decided by pulling numbers out of a box. The order ended up being:

1. Sugita

2. Chiwa

3. Kanako

4. Imai

Aww Sugita isn’t last :(

– Sugita did reasonably bad on the Kanji section. D:

– Chiwa did pretty well on the Hakata Accent section, it was all written in Hiragana and she notes that she plays alot of characters that speak only in hiragana so she might be really good at reading hiragana.

– Kanako got the English corner which is a bit of japanese and alot of english, she starts off pretty well… And then ends up saying stuff like “Sister… In Beef… Strip…” and pretty much dies there ahaha.

Everyone pretty much laughs at the “Sister inside beef… That’s stripping?!” What was supposed to be said was “Stir in beef strips” She also misread “garlic” as “gauge” hah.

– Imai has the Mixed Section which is all the sections combined into one. She reads it reallly slowly and pausing for even longer whenever a hard kanji or an english word comes up.

– The ranking that the staff gave were:

4th place: Imai

3rd place: Kanako

2nd place: Sugita

1st place: Chiwa

Well her’s was easier in my opinion D: Nooo Sugitaaaa He loses 70 points putting him at -5. How rigged :(

Also no more kiss D: D:

Looks like they may be having another event with them appearing. Perhaps that’s what’s in the special? Chiwa asks to be included in the event that she’ll match her schedule for it,to which they enthusiastically agree. Another Chiwa guesting would be great :D

Hosts: Sugita Tomokazu, Kondou Kanako

Guest: Isomura Tomomi

Haha what the? Imai’s little on screen character has a dollface for a face at the start :O …It’s kinda creepy… Seems like Imai is absent this episode :(. Seems like there’s a guest for this episode though. This episode’s guest is Makoto Nanaya’s seiyuu Isomura Tomomi. I know absolutely nothing about her. Other than she voiced the crazy marriage girl in Baka Test. She did a pretty good job if I remember correctly.

– Kanako apologizes that she can’t follow up Sugita’s material as well as Imai. Well thats true, Imai did a great job of following him up hah.

– A korean listener sends in mail with typos and spelling errors, to which Sugita faithfully reads outloud heh.

– Kanako stuffs up saying “Makoto Nanaya” while announcing this episodes guest. It was sdjfalksdjfklasdj cute <3

– Isomura cosplayed as Makoto before, she made the costume herself.

Seems like she got her mom to help out as well.

– Sugita notes that he’s voiced many games with Isomura before but hasn’t met her much.

– First corner was Uro Boe Madou Sho, with them drawing Jin for this episode.

– Isomura comments that last episode with Koyama Tsuyoshi was horrible ahaha. Yeahhhh it was wasn’t it lol.

– Isomura is pretty good at drawing it seems :O

– Sugita drew a situation that was common… For Kakihara Tetsuya rather than Jin lol.

– Next up is Battle Battle.

– This episode’s Battle Battle theme is “Mental Arithmetics”

– Isomura and Sugita both notes that they are terrible at maths.

– When asked what they thought they’re mental ages were Sugita answered “86” while Isomura answered “58”

– In the end Sugita gets it right and wins while Isomura loses. She guessed 69 when it was 76, she lost quite a few numbers there lol.

– Next up is Kanako vs Sugita. In the end Sugita wins again guessing 68 with Kanako guessing 64. Sugita’s invincible hah.

I was wondering why there were still 10 minutes left when they were done with the corners, it was all promotion stuff. Also, Sugita reverts to calling Kanako Kondom in this episode, to her dismay again hah.

This episode’s guest was Bang’s seiyuu, Koyama Tsuyoshi. The only times I’ve listened to his radio material were related to Utawarerumono Radio almost 3 years ago. I remember him making Yuzuki Ryouka squirm with his dirty jokes but we’ll see how this episode pans out.

– [Sugita: You cant play fighting games without a control stick!]

– First thing Tsuyoshi says when he comes on is about taking off his belt, since its more comfortable since his ****(CENSORED) is kinda big. Lol OTL

And goes on to mention that Sugita’s is also pretty big.

OTL

Yeah I have a feeling that this episode is gonna be worse than Takahashi Chiaki’s episode hah.

– Sugita mentions that he slept late last night. Imai replies that it’s normal for him, to which he notes that last night was later than normal. I wonder how late they’re talking about? 4 AM?

– Bang’s theme song wasn’t sung by Koyama Tsuyoshi, but by Kageyama Hironobu.

To which Tsuyoshi notes “It’s a cool song…. But why is Kageyama Hironobu singing it? Why aren’t I singing it!? I wanted to sing!”

– First corner up is “Moshimo no BlazBlue” in which the seiyuu have to think of what their character would say were they presented with a certain situation.

– When asked about how Tsuyoshi is with adlibbing he replies saying “I don’t do anything but adlib” :O

– The episode’s scene is “If during a battle a mosquito lands on your cheek”

– Tsuyoshi’s adlib was hilarious! “You may suck on my cheek. You may also suck on my lower cheek!” Ahaha As expected from Tsuyoshi.

– Incidentally Sugita’s was great as well. “Give me back my blood! *eats the mosquito*”

– Next up was the Battle Battle corner. Interestingly enough this time they were playing BlazBlue against Sugita. Whenever Sugita loses he loses 10 points. I doubt Sugita will lose though.

– First up was Imai vs Sugita. Imai used Jin while Sugita used Ragna, the character he voiced.

– It seems like Sugita hadn’t played for quite a while and it was actually pretty close for the most part… Until Sugita hit her with a special and then comboed all of Imai’s HP in one go lol.

– Throughout the episode they were noting that Sugita looked sleepy but once he started playing they exclaimed “He’s awakened!”

– Second up was Kanako who picked Noel. It seems like she’s a complete beginner.

– It was actually pretty close again, Sugita kept getting hit by random moves while what seems to be him trying to practice and remember the timing of his comboes. In the end he finishes her off with a special attack lol.

– Third and last was Tsuyoshi who picked Bang. I’m guessing he’s a complete beginner, even more so than Kanako.

– Once again really close. Tsuyoshi kept spamming random moves and Sugita kept walking into them. In the end Sugita once again finishes him off with a special move lol.

There were lots of censoring done throughout the episode. Tsuyoshi and his trousers came up quite a few more times as well lol. Kanako’s nickname wasn’t said at all throughout the episode. Perhaps Sugita was wary of what Tsuyoshi would do if he found out lol.

Also it looks like there’s no guest for the next episode.

Hosts: Sugita Tomokazu, Imai Asami, Kondou Kanako

Guest: Kakihara Tetsuya

Continuation of the live audience event recording from Episode 7, which means Kakihara Tetsuya remains as the guest.

– Starts off with the 4 of them talking briefly backstage before going right into the Uro Boe Madou Sho drawing corner.

– When asked about his drawing skill Kakihara Tetsuya replies that he’s pretty confident in drawing. I have no idea if he is or not so we’ll have to see :O He wanted his drawings to not be shown on Nicovideo though :(

– Today’s theme is drawing BlazBlue’s last boss.

– Imai drew Sugita ahaha

– Hah Kakihara’s drawing skill ended up… Well normal… AKA. not that good lol

– Sugita drew another gundam lol

Imai: “Sugita… How long do you intend to drag this on for??”

– Battle Battle corner up next. Incidentally the point spread is looking like this:

Sugita: 65

Guest: 25

Imai: 5

Kanako: 5

[Imai: “Sugita’s score isn’t going down much at all..”]

– The theme for this episode’s Battle Battle was “Guessing what’s touching your cheek while blindfolded”

– Sugita and Kakihara were the ones being blindfolded with the two girls deciding what to touch their cheek with… To Sugita’s dismay lol

– Imai tries to push the idea that if Sugita wins then Kakihara and Sugita will have to kiss, to Sugita’s horror. Kakihara’s reaction was: “It’s all alright with me~ <3” ahahaha

geh D:

– The three things Sugita guessed that were put on his cheek were:

1 – Sponge

2 – T-shirt

3 – Blazblue package

He guessed wrong for all of them.

1 – Egg (How did he guess this as a sponge??)

2 – Udon Noodle (tshirt?!?)

3 – Pot

– When Kakihara’s turn with the blindfold came up Sugita touched him and framed Kanako hah.

– Kakihara’s guesses were:

1 – An already wet Chupachups (lol disgusting D:)

2 – Carrot

3 – Some kind of crab

And was also wrong for all three.

1 – Beer bottle

2 – Gouya (http://www.hyakka-saen.co.jp/gouya/gouya1.jpg)

3 – Fat fish sausage

In the end Sugita didn’t lose any points so I guess he wins?

And so we’re back to the normal episodes from next episode onwards. Looks like next episode’s guest is Koyama Tsuyoshi. I wonder if it’s gonna be filled with dirty jokes lol.

Nanae: Drink a cup of sweet milk tea every morning. Her mum said it helps her throat so she’s been trying it for herself.

Asumi: Check her phone for fortune telling stuff every morning, though she forgets about it completely by the afternoon regardless if its a good fortune or bad fortune. Everyone else replies saying that they look up their own fortunes on the phone as well. Kanae checks her fortune at the end of the day to check if it was correct or not, rather than before the day starts.

The conversation gets pretty sidetracked and Aki & Kanae just talks about what they do in the morning or how they read their fortunes.

– As a side note about their blood types.

Asumi: AB

Kanae: B

Nanae: O

Aki: AB

– Aki talks about how lonely she feels living alone again, starting out with “Don’t think of me as a sad person but…”. She says that in the morning she says ‘”Good morning” to her plants and talks to them. <3 Aki. When asked if she gives them names, she refuses to answer… She probably does hah.

Of course everyone’s reaction to that was a bit… Iffy lolol

– This episode’s corner was Chara-nari Challenge. Incidentally the point chart is looking something like this.

Asumi – 5

Aki – 2

Nanae – 7

Everyone started with 5 points, getting to 0 means BATSU GAME, getting to 10 is an unspecified reward. Go Aki!

– Asumi won this episode again, And Aki lost hah. Aki is inching ever so closer to the Batsu game.

– A Toyosaki Aki Pun corner was added at the very end of the episode ahaha, I wonder if they’ll be doing this every week.

Oh wait was there one in a previous episode that I missed…? Hmm…

– The four of them mention Asumi Kana’s love confession at the start of this episode. I forgot it was just last episode. That portion was <3.

– While talking about places they were thinking about going to together they started talking about rollercoasters. Itou Kanae was against rollercoasters and couldn’t handle them while everyone else seemed okay with them. Aki mentioned that she loved them.

– This episode’s corner was “Catch the feeling, Chara-nari challenge” Where Asumi Kana, Katou Nanae and Toyosaki Aki attempt “challenges” centred around Itou Kanae.

– The challenge this time around was centred around puns.

– Aki seems to love puns, the way she was laughing at her own ones after saying them was hilarious.

And adorable <3.

– Aki exclaims “Wow I’m hilarious!” while delivering her puns. Ouch Aki~ ahaha. But that’s what’s so loveable about you~ lolol.

– I loved Aki’s puns… But Asumi won. Then again it might have been my own bias due to how Aki acted. Oh well.

Incidentally, Itou Kanae’s ones were the worst hah.

Is it just me or does it seem like Asumi is leading the radio the most out of the four of them? Not that I’m complaining of course, Asumi is an awesome radio host <3

Kitamura Eri seems to be detailing her Anime Expo experience on her Cho Raji radio next week. I’ll keep an eye open for that. Seems like she left a message for this week’s show though, recorded before leaving to America. Incidentally Imai Asami took over as the personality for this week.

– On top of leaving a message they also called her phone on the show.

– When KitaEri picked up the phone they started off speaking english. Engrish. Hah.

[KitaEri: “MIN-GO-SU? MY NAME IS KITA ERI”]

– KitaEri had just arrived in Japan, she was making her way to the studio on the phone but at the time of calling she wasn’t sure if she could make it before the radio finished. She seemed pretty genki on the phone :O

– Shimoda Asami and Hasegawa Akiko popped into the studio unplanned after finishing up at Shimoda Asami’s ChoRaji Girls (as host and guest respectively) and they let them into the recording booth hah. How random :O

It’s pretty much become an Idolmaster radio at this point lol.

They left about 15 minutes later.

– In the end KitaEri arrived within the last five minutes of the show.

– First word KitaEri used to describe the trip was “Sugoi”

– Shimoda Asami, Nakamura Eriko and Hasegawa Akiko came back in the last few minutes of the show.

I’ll watch out for her next episode, I’m hoping to see how the trip was from her perspective.

Hosts: Itou Kanae, Toyosaki Aki, Asumi Kana, Katou Nanae

Wow the title looks terrible romanised.

– Shugo Chara radio hosted by Ito Kanae, Asumi Kana, Toyosaki Aki and Katou Nanae. This was in 2008 so it was before K-On! and pretty much before Ito Kanae and Toyosaki Aki became the big names they are today.

– Asumi Kana is as wonderful as ever.

– I know next to nothing about Katou Nanae.

– A listener sent in a mail asking about their hometowns and their dialects. The four of them start talking in their own dialects and it’s pretty interesting to hear. Though Itou Kanae doesn’t really have one, the other three were fun.

Asumi Kana: Fukuoka

Toyosaki Aki: Tokushima

Ito Kanae: Nagano

Katou Nanae: Ibaraki

Asumi exclaimed “Thats not even Japanese anymore!” when Aki started speaking in her dialect.

– In this episode’s corner where they have to adlib lines for a situation, the situation was inviting the person you love for hanami. Katou Nanae groaned loudly when she heard it hah.

– They had to speak their lines as a boy, as well as a personality type which they pulled out at random from a box. Nanae always pulls out the weirdest ones hah, how does this happen everytime?!

– Kanae lost this episode hah, which means she gets the embarassing line batsu game.

Which was: Something a girl would say in her sleep to *kyun* her boyfriend. kjflasdkjfsadkjf Kanae was so embarrassed while doing it ahaha.

– The staff decided that they’d have everyone else do it as well. Thats so horrible, GJ Staff! lolol They agreed to it if Kanae had to do it again as well hah.

I love what the staff, corners and show puts the seiyuu through. They’re always complaining about wanting to go home throughout the show ahaha.

– [Imai: Anyone who hangs around Sugita starts becoming perverted.

Kanako: I’m not going to turn perverted!

Imai: Ehh? I think you’re well on your way already…

Sugita: Join me…]

I agree with Imai ahaha, Sugita is having an effect on Kanako, while Imai has already gone well past that point hah.

– Kakihara starts off by saying: “Since this is on NicoNico Douga I bet all thats showing up are “jin jin jin jin”, “wwwww”, “hentai” and “kimoi”. You know Niconico well Kakihara lol

– When asking about Kanako’s nick name she reacts by saying “I don’t want Kakihara to call me Kondom ;_;”

– While looking at Noel’s costumed bare back Imajin thinks “Ah I want to touch it” To which the audience calls out “Imajin! Hentai!”

Imai: “Ah thanks for the compliment <3”

– They mention that there was a Makoto cosplayer at the event.

– When Kakihara says Jin’s evil lines with joy they comment how much he seemed like he was enjoying it, to which he replies “I love playing Jin!”

– Sugita makes Imai and Kanako read something perverted he wrote when filling out speech bubbles for an image for a corner. At first Imai is all “As if I’ll read this!” But then after some pushing by Kakihara and Sugita she asks the female portion of the audience to find that all of them want her to read it. She ends up reading it yelling “Are you all the same as Ueda Kana?!” at the female audience. Ahaha, oh wait thats sexual harassment isn’t it Sugita?? Go Sugita <3

– Imai then takes her revenge by having Sugita read out “I LOVE NAKAMURA” when the next round comes on. Ahaha.

– The last few minutes seems to be recorded backstage after the event.

– Imai mentions that this was the first time she’s talked properly with Kakihara

This episode is only the first half of the recording of the event. The next episode contains the 2nd half. So that means Kakihara guesting in the next episode as well.
