Announcement Regarding RWBY Themes and Final Changes

On the fourth week of March, I started listening to BBTAG music while watching Skullgirls Slapfest as a test. Looking solely at multiple universes, it has turned out well enough for me to confirm it and to spice up the ongoing Skullgirls launch party. This is no doubt a big upgrade from the main BlazBlue games as an occasion for freeing the game from Mike Z's hands with a big to heck with you to that disgusting sexual harasser of a head and playing Justice Sword during Annie's tutorial and upon her entrance would be a cherry on top, but not as disgusting as pedophiles; they are the most disgusting ones when it comes to the safety of children. But there's something I learned from this.

Let's go over and talk about what has not been getting up to my standards to contradict my experience in listening to BBTAG music; the RWBY themes. They fit well with the characters and canon solo matches, but there's one flaw that contradicts this. Since RWBY is a blockbuster hit animated series by Rooster Teeth where the themes are from, they don't use a timeless flow that the other universes' themes use despite the fact that they fit well with the characters and canon 1v1s.

Effective immediately, along with one of the characters already unassigned from a RWBY character theme and assigned to a non-RWBY theme, I made a decison to sunset the RWBY themes. This means I am unassigning another character from a RWBY character theme and assigning them to a non-RWBY theme and I will no longer play a RWBY theme during a canon solo match. Why I am making this decision is because they just aren't substantial enough to justify a theme despite fitting well with the characters and canon solo matches and they don't meet up to my standards.

Not only I will be assigning the character to a non-RWBY theme. I will also be making final changes to the chart. Those changes will be final for the BBTAG 2.0 period and further changes will be made when the BBTAG 3.0 Character Pack is confirmed. A wish list for it will be written in the near future. I will announce a new non-RWBY theme for that character and the final changes made to the other sections when the next Season 1 Pass character is announced because I don't want to announce things out of the blue, so it's best to wait a little longer.

The things that made BBTAG music much more unprecedented than with the music of the mainline BlazBlue games are the BlazBlue themes in BBTAG playing differently because characters from P4A, UNI and the EX universes are in it and the fact that I changed how I have my trios to having a character assigned to a BlazBlue theme, a character assigned to a P4A theme and a character assigned to a UNI theme to create BBTAG Trinities, trios that have one character assigned to a BlazBlue theme, one assigned to a Persona 4 Arena theme and one assigned to an Under Night In-Birth theme.

That said, nothing beats BBTAG music because it's a magical team-based fighting game that has characters from multiple universes since Team Sonic Racing. I am committed to playing and spectating Skullgirls on both PS4 and Steam while playing BBTAG music in my soundtrack without a single RWBY theme going forward. I will continue supporting themes from BlazBlue, P4A, UNI and EX universes going forward, including Active Angel on Umbrella's entrance and on Boardwalk. Beyond Active Angel, it's only a matter of time before the rest of the Season 1 Pass characters get announced and officially released. Here's to a fresher soundtrack. Also, here are some hints to what I am working on behind the scenes to celebrate the ongoing Skullgirls launch party and the shift to BBTAG music.

"With an orchestra inside him, Big Band is a bag full of musical instruments and lodestones created in the Anti-Skullgirl Labs so big that he can't be missed. His power of music and magnetism has a murderous affair in New Meridian."

"As a bright little sister and a cheery Princess of the royal family, Umbrella brings the sweet salt and shoots bubbles out of her magical living umbrella. She may be little, but she is a force to be reckoned with to side with her brilliant big sister and also eat ice cream and have fun at the Boardwalk."

"While Annie is not the Sealed-Weapon Izayoi and her sword is not an Azure Grimoire, she bears the power of her blade within the Heavens. With it, she can purify evil in the name of justice for evil can't escape heavenly justice."

"Filled with cartoony gadgets, Peacock is all about cartoon violence. She is all that to be a looney yet dangerous circus of violence created by the Doctor in Lab 8."

"Every Commander of an elite military force is basically brilliant, but Parasoul is the most brilliant Commander of the Canopy Kingdom's elite military force that executes military missions with her Egret soldiers in accordance with the NMPD. She is ready to lay down the law with her ice-fueled umbrella and execute away until her bright little sister sides with her."

"All school girls are charming in their traditional uniform, but Filia is spirited and the most charming of them all in her school in Maplecrest. Despite having a living raging demon of destruction in her hair and not facing her Shadow self to earn her Persona, she is enamored by the glory of the morning sun."

"Double is a shapeshifting Void from her cozy domain below the Catacombs that transforms into anyone. One of the most egregious things being that of harnessing the Hollow Night's power."

"Squigly may not be overwhelming, but she wields the power of her dragon buddy. Despite not being a demon, she is all that to bear the infinite power of Dark Eco and can still sing in the opera."

"An In-Birth Cerebella may not be, but as a Medici muscle, she is into punching and grabbing her opponents with giant living arms. Her forceful circus act wows the crowd tonight and makes her senpai that is the son of a patriarch of a crime syndicate in New Meridian proud."

BBTAG Music to SG Chart Update 2.2

Made some small changes to the chart. Here they are.

In the wishlisted characters section. Weiss Mix is no longer a theme for Regina; Lust SIN is now a theme for her. Because since Regina is actually a Cirque des Cartes character among others that represents the Queen card in terms of lore, Lust SIN has a majestic feel and mood that will no doubt fit perfectly with Regina since she is the Queen card representation of the Cirque des Cartes. There are now eight characters assigned to BlazBlue themes in the wishlisted characters section.

I heard Regina is also a sword character assigned to a BlazBlue theme like Annie and that's why I made them on Soul Calibur VI, not for craps and giggles, but for the fun of it.

Just so you know, it might stay that way forever since Lust SIN has a royal and majestic feel to fit well with her.

These are the Cirque des Cartes members assigned to BBTAG themes. There are six of them and putting them all in battle will make it exciting. I found assigning the Cirque des Cartes members to BBTAG themes given me some Namco Museum vibes since my inception of assigning characters to BBTAG themes and deejaying them to spice up the ongoing Skullgirls launch party in the wake of Autumn Games, Hidden Variable and the former Lab Zero Games employees' part in cutting ties with Mike Zaimont.

You know what's awesome? Forceful Step fits perfectly with Cerebella because of her Living Weapon hat with arms. She's the only Cirque des Cartes member assigned to an Under Night In-Birth theme and I seem to have a nice fun fact about it.

Did you know that Cirque des Cartes is Spanish for Circus of Cards? We got Cerebella, assigned to Forceful Step, the Diamond suit rep, Feng, assigned to Heartful!, the Ace card rep, Taliesin, assigned to A Fool or Clown?, the Jack card rep, Hubrecht, assigned to The Tyrant, the Heart suit rep, Regina, now assigned to Lust SIN, the Queen card rep and Beatrix, assigned to Fascinating Gessen Girls' Academy, the Club suit rep. How come the Spade suit and the King card reps aren't listed in the Skullgirls lore yet?

But what matters the most is that the Skullgirls launch party will forever be vindicated and pacified. To heck with that disgusting sexual harasser of a Lab Zero Games lead designer.

If the rest of the Cirque des Cartes characters get their playable debut and make the Cirque des Cartes a playable stage, they might make a solo only online Skullgirls tournament where players are restricted to playing Cirque des Cartes characters just like in Them's Fightin' Herds as a special occasion, dubbed "Torneo des Cartes." It's Spanish for Tournament of Cards.

In the general story mode section, there are now 13 characters assigned to BlazBlue themes including Lust SIN for Regina as a new character assigned to a BlazBlue theme and one RWBY theme.

This update should (hopefully) be the last one before the next DLC character reveal. Fingers crossed, though.

With that being said, it's time for the next Skullgirls Lore fun fact. I did fun facts regarding five characters, but none of them associate with an Under Night In-Birth theme yet. This next fun fact will be regarding the next character assigned to an Under Night In-Birth theme, so listen carefully. *ahem*

Alright, so... you know how Beowulf and Annie could probably need a third TV friend that is assigned to an Under Night In-Birth theme? Well, that's where Cerebella comes in. Assigned to Forceful Step. You see, Cerebella is not only a Diamond suit representation of the Cirque des Cartes, which means Circus of Cards in Spanish. She is also a goon of her senpai, Vitale Medici, son of Lorenzo Medici of the Medici Mafia, a family that is known for culture and responsibility and that's why the Cirque des Cartes is not a playable stage yet.

It all started when the Medici Mafia was created, when Cassandra Veranos, who was raised by Vitale, came to be. She forged a contract with the circus and earned herself a hat with a skull. But it's not an ordinary hat. It is a hat with giant living arms crafted from a tortoise shell and a body of a cow, I guess. Cerebella is her stage name and she can grab and punch things with her living hat with giant arms. It's a Mika-type of act.

Now, since Cerebella has a knack of both hobbies, which is punching and grabbing things with her hat with arms, Forceful Step makes a perfect cherry on top, thanks to its techno flow to satisfy that. And she is good at juggling elephants while on the tightrope. Heck, she even got a palette that depicts Twintelle from ARMS, which is available to those who purchased the Season 1 Pass. And that's not enough. She could even get a palette that depicts Mika from Under Night In-Birth. Wow!

Oh, she offers a feel of you thinking of her when you look at the decorations on the ceiling of the movie theater while it's nighttime? Sounds spectacular.

You see, Cerebella is the only member of the Cirque des Cartes assigned to an Under Night In-Birth theme, which is Forceful Step, after the shift to BBTAG music. She has a lot of traits within her. Power, strength, fame and awesomeness. She is all about acrobat that can wow fans as if you were waiting for the grand reopening of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus, but without the animals. Sure, giant arms are awesome and techno music satisfies them when it comes to punching and grabbing things, but turns out there is a thin line between Twintelle and Mika after all.

Anyway, Ms. Fortune was a naughty kitten, remember? She stolen and swallowed a family heirloom of the Medici family, the Life Gem and tried to seek vengeance to end the Medici Mafia like a vile kitty she is to avenge the Fishbone Gang slain at the hands of the Black Dahlia and her goons, so Cerebella was sent by Vitale to stop Nadia before she gains the upper hand. Made to take a Forceful Step towards the Alexandrite. Well, Nightmare Fiction plays during this outrageous 1v1 match between Cerebella and Ms. Fortune deemed classified as unspeakable, so I won't talk about it.

Anyway, Ms. Fortune swallowed the Life Gem to not only grant her eternal life, but allow its immense power to flow through her veins giving her more time to avenge the Fishbone Gang, which given Cerebella the edge she needed, so she literally crushed that naughty Feral with her giant hands. And just like that, Cerebella had killed Ms. Fortune, by turning her into the Life Gem harder than the canon Ragna vs. Hazama match in BlazBlue for such a fair and virtuous nobility. Spectacular performance! Oh, did I say kill? I mean crush her with giant hands and turn her into the Alexandrite.

With Ms. Fortune gone and the Life Gem back under Medici hands, that nasty cat girl won't bother them anymore, so good riddance to that pesky vermin Nadia Fortune. Cerebella had saved the Medici Mafia and has been appointed a totes noble, virtuous clown, courtesy of Vitale. No Arby's cheeseburger for that pesky cat girl. Even Black Dahlia was totes proud of her heroic duty. Boom! Diamond Finale! That's gonna be the the name of her Infinite Worth EXS; her cinematic lv. 5 super similar to Mika and killing them with it ends the battle with a curtain call. Ten points to a spectacular Forceful Step towards the circus! Hmm, I wonder if there's gonna be a Mika vs. Makoto Nanaya Death Battle?

Regardless, if Cerebella was an Under Night In-Birth character, she could embrace the power of the Hollow Night at the circus.

Now, the moral of the story is thus; don't be a vile, despicable cat girl like Ms. Fortune, by stealing a family heirloom and attacking the Mafia. Be a noble, virtuous clown like Cerebella, by catching thieves and taking them down. Except supporting Feng and Minette, of course.
