New season of BlazBlue radio, the last episode done in a recording studio was on 2009.09.17, over 9 months ago so quite a bit of time has passed. The first episode of BlazBlue Radio was released on 2009.04, it’s nice to see that BlazBlue Radio is still going :D

– They pretend that it’s been over 40 years since BlazBlue radio ended by putting on grandpa and grandma voices lol

– Listener sends in a mail with an image he drew saying he’s only been drawing for half a year and not to expect too much. As if he drew that with only half a year of practiceeeeeeesdlfkadsfjk.

– They introduce a new corner with the new season, one that I already saw in the episode with Nakamura Yuuichi. “Shikan Gakkou Art Classroom” where theyre given a random sketch/scribble and they have to draw something out of it according to a theme.

– This episode has a circle as the base scribble.

– The winner of the corner has their picture stuck up on the background for all the later episodes, to which Imai tries to warn Sugita not to draw anything “funny” lol

– The theme of the corner was “A Man’s Battle”

– Imai drew something to do with figure skating and went on and on explaining her picture and the staff fastforwarded it lol.

– Kanako drew the earth out of the circle.

– Imai wins and has her picture stuck on the back.

– Next is also a new corner “Kore wa Ao no Chikara da” which is named after Ragna’s special move. When Ragna lands a successful special attack as a finishing blow he says a special line. Basically what the corner is about is that they replace certain parts of what Ragna says with their own sentences, each of them looking after a different part of the line. What they replace the lines with depends on what theme is sent in by a listener.

– Sugita says Ragna’s finishing line and the two girls all fawn over him due to how cool he sounded lol. Imai notes that she hasn’t praised Sugita in a while and all she’s been doing on the radio has been getting angry at him lol.

– This episode is longer than usual due to them introducing all the new corners I’m guessing. The next corner is “Tatakae Kagutsuchi Dojo”.

Next episode has Teiga’s Seiyuu Nomura Kenji guesting on the show. It looks like they expect to have guests on almost every episode since one of their corners rely on having a fourth person participating.

– For this episode’s Noel Poem they have everyone writing a different stanza of the poem again.

– Matsuura Chie comes again for the second part of the event :O

– New corner for the event, the 7 of them are given a theme and they have to write down what they think is important to that theme. If two or more people have matching ideas then they take a batsu game. The theme was “Arc System Works’ feelings as a company” lawl. Boring theme :( And they all pretty much gave pretty serious answers.

– They needed to decide someone to recieve the Batsu Game though and Tsuyoshi was chosen due to his harassing hah.

– The batsu game was to stand out in front and say their good points. Tsuyoshi started with “Well a good point? My **** (censored) is big!” ahaha Sugita comments [“You can’t take that lightly D:”]

– Next theme was “What’s essential to a heroine in regards to characteristics”

– Sugita wrote “Your favourite character voice” lol

– Kakihara made a Marmalade Boy reference hah.

– Tsuyoshi and Kana were this round’s batsu game takers. Tsuyoshi because he’s Tsuyoshi, and Kana because Matsuura wanted to have Kana take it lol.

– The next theme was “What’s important to life”

– Sugita wrote “Friends” and drew a picture of Nakamura lol

– Kana wrote “[Game Console] Controller” Ahaha as expected from Kana-sama! “I’ve probably held a controller for 1/3rd of my life…”

– Tsuyoshi’s was censored but I’m pretty certain he wrote “Sex” lol Well that fits I guess ahaha

– Since no one had matching ideas again Matsuura just chose all the male members to take the batsu game lol.

– Sugita said “My eyelashes are long” for his good points lol

– Sugita pretended to be Kakihara’s grandfather backstage after the event hah.

And so ends the live audience Blazblue radio event. Another season of BlazBlue radio starts up a bit over a month after part 4 was released and almost 4 months after the event happened so there’s still that to listen to \o/.

Looks like this episode was recorded later in the evening and is a previous event to the one in the last two parts. There were two seperate live audience events that happened during BluFes it seems.

– First corner is Uro Boe Madou Sho.

– Tsuyoshi is still harassing the poor staff girl lol.

– Kanako stuffs up her japanese and Sugita makes her apologize for it lol

– When talking about everyone’s drawing ability Imai references the time Kana drew something on the show. Kana says that she’s been practicing though :O We’ll see how she goes.

– And here are her practice drawings lol:

– Isomura says she’s good depending on what she’s drawing.

– The theme for the corner was “Bang’s character seen from behind.”

– Kanako as always draws really well :O

– Kakihara draws Bang from behind pretty well… Except naked lol.

– Imai tells Kakihara that she’ll punish him later, to which he replies “Ah gladly”

– Isomura also draws Bang’s bare backside, this time with a fundoshi though lol.

– Tsuyoshi drew him normally except with the fundoshi on top of his clothes :O

– Tsuyoshi starts saying all this dirty material to Imai’s despair though it was all censored :(

– Sugita drew Bang’s behind normally except instead of the nail(kugi) that Bang has he drew an Al Dakimakura (As in the Kugi in Full Metal Alchemist’s Al’s seiyuu Kugimiya Rie lol)

Matsuura Chie wasn’t present in this part, I’m guessing she was only at BluFes for a while and didn’t come to the evening event.

Everyone from the previous part is present. After a brief introduction from everyone at the event backstage it goes to the stage starting with Noel Poem and then to Battle Battle.

– Sugita makes a Honey and Clover reference during Noel Poem. Wait he voiced Mayama in Honey and Clover didn’t he lol.

– This time for Battle Battle the seiyuu are split into two groups instead of everyone vs Sugita. The two groups are the radio hosts vs the guests.

– The theme for this episode’s Battle Battle is “BlazBlue Quiz” in which they answer questions related to BlazBlue. Err If I recall correctly no one in the guest team has played BlazBlue except for possibly Isomura? Kinda one sided I’m thinking D:

– It was Nakamura’s birthday at the time and they congratulate him…. Too bad he’s not there :(

– In the end the guest team won :O

– The batsu game for the losing team was to speak in Taokaka language which is sticking “Nyas” to the end of their sentence lol.

– Matsuura Chie was there as a surprise guest. She read out the quiz questions and spoke for a bit backstage at the end of part two.

And so on to part 3.

Live Audience recording of BlazBlue Radio for Blue Festival (BluFes) split into four parts. They have all 7 people on the stage at once but it’s more like an event with the three hosts as MCs rather than a radio show so it’s not really chaotic.

– Sugita calls out “Kondomu~” after Kanako introduces herself. Imai and Kanako yells at him for doing so lol.

– Imai tells the audience to beware of Koyama Tsuyoshi and whenever he starts to say anything suspicious they are to yell out “ME(h)”

– When Ueda Kana comes on to the stage she greets everyone with “Gokigenyou”. I smell MariMite :O

– Kana is apparently wearing a kimono. She’s worn a kimono to live events a lot recently hasn’t she?

– Imai and Kanako were reluctant to call Tsuyoshi on to the stage and when they finally did he started doing some stripping motions lol

– Sugita says that Kakihara drank many bottles of beer before he came to the event yet looked fine hah.

– First up is Moshimo no BlazBlue.

– Same as the other time they had a live event, they are given comic panels and each of them have to fill in the speech bubbles.

– Incidentally here are what the two panels look like:

– Similar to the previous live event they had, the character seiyuu will be reading out each of their lines. Isomura got really worried about that when Tsuyoshi reacted to that piece of information lol.

First Panel:

# Kanako had Rachel looking at a BL coupling on the screen lol

– The girls start talking about BL and Sugita tells them off saying “Do you think the male audience will be entertained with this material??” lol

# Imai had Rachel hacking into Tsuyoshi’s computer and being terrified of what she saw ahaha. Tsuyoshi’s reaction “Oh you know me pretty well!”

# Lol A lot of Tsuyoshi’s talk explaining his panel was cut out due to dirty material I guess D:

# Sugita did a Hikaru no Go reference lol (when Akira was playing on the computer against Sai I’m guessing. Either that or the other scene when he’s watching Sai play against his father.)

– Tsuyoshi tells Kakihara to dance during the thinking time for writing up the next panel since he “looked free” due to the two of them not writing anything if their characters appeared on the panel, and so Kakihara started pelvic thrusting (I think? lol) Tsuyoshi then comes up and joins him ahaha

– When asked if Kana was an M or an S she replied “M”

– Tsuyoshi kept touching the staff girl whenever she came by to take the panels they wrote on lol. Poor her.

– On the second panel Imai has Bang saying “..So… It’s been 10 years since we’ve married…”

There was only one corner in this part. The rest of the episode was the 7 of them talking backstage for a couple of minutes. It looks like there’s four parts though so there’s still alot more of the event to go \o/

Special episode released 3 months after the last episode to promote the sequel, Continuum Shift which was coming out at around that time on arcade. Doesn’t seem like there’s a guest but oh well.

– Kanako flinched at being called Kondomu again lol, well I guess she hasn’t been called that for 3 months now hah.

– Sugita adds a character and voice to Tsubaki’s hat. A hat voiced by Wakamoto Norio lol

– Imai says that she loves how much freedom BlazBlue radio has.

– Kanako talks a bit about Calamity Trigger being released on the PSP so perhaps this special is to promote the PSP version as well.

– Imai embarrassedly talks about a time when she was recognised and fanboyed over at a cafe by it’s manager and was really happy when it happened…. And then the cafe manager tells her “There’s curry stuck on your mouth”

– When asked if she’s “had rice stuck on her cheek for a while” before Kanako replies that she hasn’t but she has had rice stuck on her front hair hah. How does that happen?

– For this corner’s Noel Poem seperate people wrote different stanzas. Imai wrote something about not liking christmas so much due to all the couples annoying her, Sugita wrote something about his pet dying from starvation and how life sucks and Kanako writes that Christmas makes everyone’s dreams come true. It makes for a very… Interesting poem lol.

Next up is part one of the live event they held on February 2010. It looks like they have a huge personality list of Sugita Tomokazu, Kondou Kanako, Imai Asami, Isomura Tomomi, Ueda Kana, Kakihara Tetsuya and Koyama Tsuyoshi. I have no idea how it’ll go but we’ll see.

Also no Chiwachiwa :(

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.
