I have to wonder what the rating on this game will be because of RWBY. Will it still be T and have all the crudeness normal of BlazBlue or will it be toned down? RWBY is meant to be relatively kid-friendly (Tyrian calling Ruby a bitch notwithstanding) so which side will have to adapt? Personally I find it would be weird to correlate RWBY with a character who swears up a storm and is accused of being a pedophile, not to mention even being next to Mu or Makoto but at the same time I find it weirder to have Blaz Blue without those things.

[up] RWBY really the odd one out in terms of content rating. UNIB is Teen rated (seriously, one of character's super is Eaten Alive as a Second-Person Attack) and Persona 4 Arena is also Teen rated, with the main series being rated Mature.

Also note that Grimm's Eclipse is technically rated Teen (though only for Violence).

Younger audiences were more of a Periphery Demographic that ended up growing in the first to seasons, but I feel like a show stops being "kid-friendly" when you have people being dismembered and incinerated.

That has nothing on Relius's Mind Rape of Makoto in her path in Continuum Shift.

I do wonder what they'll do for the soundtrack. If it's gonna be rips from the game, remixes of all the older themes, or a mix. I do hope for rival themes between characters from the different franchises. Or stuff like other composers doing remixes. I still want Daisuke to do Red Like Roses Xrd.

The Makoto-Relius thing is one of the most overblown things I've seen people on this site mention in terms of "oh so dark!' It wasn't even that bad and yes Relius has done worse to his own family.

I mean

they could. Arc Sys has worked on Double Dragon games in the past. Aesthetically and thematically they're just extremely different from anyone revealed and any of these franchises.

I don't think it's so much that people think the Makoto thing is the worst thing Relius has done, what he did to Ada and his wife are objectively worse, but rather that it's the worst thing we actually see him do. Aside from one image in Carl's Central Fiction Act 2 arcade showing the Ada-Nirvana process, it is mostly just an offscreen atrocity. Meanwhile, the Makoto thing is shown to us fully in all of its messed up glory so it leaves a bigger impact.

@Yakuzu: That's a Zero Context Example. Explain again why she's a Sacred Goddess?

.... I wonder why I'm not even allowed to make 'Audience's Pet' trope (AKA the character that is so loved by the audience that they're praised like a deity and considered to be unable to do wrong), because this is not just limited to Makoto.

Good thing Makoto in Trope Pantheons wasn't this overdone...

@Ogiga: Honestly, he was just peeking to her mind. It's not like he's dismembering her, transforming her soul (even if we may have to resort to Gory Discretion Shot). But there is one point in this: The impact would be smaller if it wasn't done to a pet character like Makoto.

I mean, no one will care if he did that to someone like Litchi...

[up] Ehhhhhhh, I'm not too sure about that. I agree with Ogiga that it being shown in detail had something to do with it.

Besides, Makoto happened to be a fresh character back then that wasn't trolled by Terumi yet thanks to her iron will. Easy target for the more subtle Relius.

You would've gotten even less of a reaction if, say, Noel, Tsubaki, or Ragna were the victims. Now, imagine if it was Bang or Taokaka. People really would have been like "WHY YOU ASSHOLE WHY TO THEM?!"

This is why I thought that kind of character that could generate such could be a trope on its own, it's not Ensemble Dark Horse. But that got shot down on the basis of 'Moar complaining'.

Seriously though, things like this are better off talked in the BB general topic. Unless you want to discuss which character from Persona or UNIEL or RWBY can generate such reaction if Relius gets his hands on them... I'm gonna guess Nanako, but no way she's going to be playable.

What character in this crossover can't Relius go Memetic Molester on? [lol]

The creepier part would be how much interest would he have on stuff like Semblances and Persona.
