This show is really over the top, action packed but very out-landish at times but still very fun besides that it is based on the anime fighting game called 'BlazBlue', so... humans the King of Depravity is going to review BlazBlue Alter Memory episodes 1-3, lets Rock!

Story & Characters
In the year 2199, humanity eagerly waits for the dawn of the new century, following the end of a series of devastating magic wars. Word spreads that Ragna the Bloodedge, an SS-class rebel with the highest ever bounty on his head and a powerful form of Ars Magus known as the "Azure Grimoire", has appeared in the 13th Hierarchical City of Kagutsuchi. To collect the bounty and his Azure Grimoire, a motley array of fighters converge on Kagutsuchi.

Ragna the Bloodedge- The main protagonist of the BlazBlue series. Also known as the Grim Reaper, he is feared by the NOL for being the most powerful individual to have ever rebelled against them since the Ikaruga Civil War. His actions, which included destroying countless number of their branches, have labeled him the most wanted criminal and caused him to receive the largest bounty ever in the history of the NOL. He possesses a powerful form of ars magus called the Azure Grimoire, or simply referred to as the titular BlazBlue, which is often either the secondary or primary target of those after him and his bounty. His ultimate goal is to destroy the NOL, for he blames them for destroying his family. He is Jin Kisaragi's biological brother, whose rivalry with him stems from an incident that happened when their sister Saya was presumably killed. His right arm is mechanical because his real one was cut off by Terumi, who had taken control of Jin's mind. He was resurrected by Rachel as a Dhampir, causing one of his green eyes to turn red and his once-blond hair to white. The BlazBlue he possesses is only a fragment of an imitation; the true Grimoire is actually destined to be wielded by Noel Vermillion.

Noel Vermillion- A young girl who was found amidst the burning fields of Ikaruga where she was rescued, and then adopted by the family of Vermillion and is the main heroine of the series. It was because of her outstanding combat activity that she became a high-ranking member of the NOL using the Nox Nyctores revolver Arcus Diabolus: Bolverk, which apparently does not fire actual bullets but rather inflicts damage by creating distortions in dimensional space. Noel also seems to be extremely reliant psychologically on her guns, to the point where she breaks down crying if they are taken away from her. She was made Jin's subordinate by the NOL, although Jin treated her poorly due to her resemblance of Saya. When Jin rushed off to hunt down Ragna without permission from the NOL, Noel was assigned to stop him and bring him back to his post at the Library.

Animation & Sound-
The animation is very fluid and generally really nice looking, the action/battle scences are really well done but sometimes do fell underwhelming at times but they are very well done, sound wise the scence music is 'meh' and I hate the ending song, but the opening song is 'ok' I guess but it isnt the cheese of amazing the soundtrack as for this department is fairly ok here, nothing to special I guess.

The english dub casting is fairly well done, although i havent seen the sub, it is a fun show to watch so give it a try if you want.
