That's about right for Jam. She's Guilty Gear's version of a joke character with the difference being that she can actually hold her own against some of the biggest bad-asses in the GG universe. Well, that is until the devs nerfed her kicks.
@@HRDSalami654 After seeing how broken her english is in rev2, i expected her to just be a joke/fanservice character, but her episode mode was actually one of my favorites. She has some good quotes, even if they are gramatically dead.
Fun fact! That "Data Disc" is actually the disc that Nasa flew into space with mathematical formulas and frequencies to decode, juuuuuust in case another lifeform is out there. The creators of GG put in some unique easter eggs!
So then, not finishing the lore and being late to this. My guess is that they're hinting they don't want a fucking space invasion as well with all the shit they're dealing with?
no it isn't, the picture used in the video is ofcourse, but if you listen he said its a gold data disk flown into space in 2014, so it cant be the same disk, just inspired by

“Sol eventually makes it to the forest, to Testament, through Testament, and then to Dizzy.” Me, back when I first started guilty gear early in my childhood: “Eventually..”
Well...I mean...once you have the whole story it sort of makes sense it's a timeloop started by gods and then...fuuuuuuuck nope can't do it I internally get the story but explaining it is way beyond my abilities.
Wow, a lot more happened between Guilty Gear and X than I thought. Also, holy shit, Woolie, great job on the narration at 16:30, syncing the blurbs on Potemkin, Ky, Anji, Testament and Dizzy with the opening animation's role call could NOT have been easy
First off, thank you for taking the feedback seriously from the previous video. You did a great job with the synopsis of GGX AND the novels/drama CDs, though I could have used a bit more assassins (but I'm biased). Looking forward the next installment!
Having only played XXAC+, I really appreciate the context for the characters' past. (And even only having played that game, I still understood it better than Blazblue Calamity Trigger's story)
God damn Woolie these are so good. Serious getting chills down my spine having you narrate these intense stories with just the right imagery to help my mind fill the gaps. I know GG has great music, but you still seemed to pick the exact ones that helps everything nail the "feel" of Guilty Gear. A metal album turned anime. Sleep knowing you did good. I await the next duel.
Man this is so good. Guilty Gear was always one of those series that was incredibly appealing to me on aesthetics alone, but I could never get into the gameplay or follow the story. So with Strives casulized gameplay and this series, I'M ALL IN NOW BABY
That was awesome, way to tell the events while also highlighting the conflicts the characters are going through, still, could have explained better the reason why Millia assassinated Zato, if I recall there's an entire drama CD between the four main members of the assassin's guild that happens during this time period, they even mention one of the characters from this CD in Xrd. I also wonder if you are going to feature the events of Isuka and Judgment, as they are mostly filler.
Extremely spot on in this video, very well done. Just a few quick asides though. 1. *This is pure speculation on my part so do not take this as a correction.* But Crow's existence being canon is somewhat unclear. While the PWAB is very clearly a canon and active faction at this point in the story, Crow himself could possibly just have been a stand in for a main villain role in AC+'s story mode simply because there wasn't any clear main villain for that game. *This is not confirmed one way or the other* but his knowledge on virtually the entire cast seems highly unlikely to be fully canon due to the ultimate role the PWAB holds in the grand scheme of the plot when the Conclave is discovered post GGX/X2. This also might just be a retcon. Justice clones are almost certainly non-canon for obvious reasons. 2. I can't exactly remember where this was stated, so please keep that in mind. But Testament survived the events of GG1 because Sol spared his life in a (at that time in his life) rare act of mercy due to sympathizing over the pain of being turned into a Gear against his will and out of respect for Kliff. That's basically it. If there are any mistakes or inaccuracies then I couldn't detect them in this video. Very well done, I'm looking forward to part 3.
1. Puting aside the question of what parts of AC+ are Canon, the only thing I'm sure of is that the GG World maintain the connection between Crow and Robo-Ky canon, it even says he is looking for him. This goes in line with Robo-Ky's Side Story where a Robo-Ky MK.2 is send to retrieve him. And well, I think is more that the PWAB know stuff about the characters rather than Crow alone. 2. IIRC, the games and material never specified how Testament survived or escaped in GG1. Only that after Justice's death, he regained control of himself and felt remorse of what he had done.
Crow is definitely canon and is a major character for XX, as his efforts to clone Justice were essentially a prelude to Conclave's plan to revive her altogether.
@@KuroNoTenno I genuinely don't know about Crow but if cloning Justice was possible, even at lowered power then the Conclave wouldn't have had to go to the lengths they were going to for Xrd. Not only that but having Justice clones deployed even in black op missions would be a massive risk for intelligence leak reasons. A similar thing happened when they hired the Assassins Guild to sabotage the operation to kill Faust's patient back before he became Dr. Baldhead because he was very close to accidentally discovering resurrection. Which the Conclave needed to keep secret at all costs because it was the crux of how they expected to merge with Justice and "guide humanity" to willingly give up their humanity WITHOUT resorting to an Absolute World. Basically even if Crow's existence is canon, Justice clones are almost certainly non-canon. Crow can still be canon and have almost all of his actions and knowledge retconned too. Like I said a few times at this point, X2's canon status is weird like that.
@@gearhead6042 No, Justice clones are canon, they wouldn't be such a major point in AC's story otherwise. Conclave went to the lengths of reviving Justice in Xrd because 1) Crow's Justice cloning was trashed by several characters; and 2) Because they managed to successfully use resurrections magic by reviving Zato and Eddie, so at that point they knew they could get the real Justice, so clones are no longer needed. I don't think Conclave was going to DEPLOY Justice clones like troops. They probably wanted a perfect copy that would be the next best thing to the original they couldn't get their hands on at that point. Crow kept resulting clones in his lab and they got trashed by whoever canonically found the lab. Another point in favor of Crow's canonicity is that he was the one who made Robo-Ky robots, which definitely are canon.
"Yeah those gears are dangerous, we gotta do something about them" * Sees Dizzy's underboob * "But she doesn't seem all that bad really, maybe we should give her a chance"
She have her whole package. Pure, sexy, badass. She is ultimate waifu. Even Elphelt said Dizzy's feminine charm is off the scale when she tried to gauge Dizzy's. Also, you can't find a demur princess dressing in lewd cloth and full of personalities of devoted wife anywhere!
As much as I truly appreciate your review of the lore, I had to repeat the Guilty Gear X parts a couple times because I kept getting distracted listening at how sick “Still in the Dark” continues to be.
Almost got confused when he started talking about the Golden Disks. I think Transformers: Beast Wars came out around the same time and also used the Voyager disks as a major plot point for their series. Neat!
I actually jumped hearing that READY ORRR in the middle of the clash between Ky and Sol over the golden discs. And I got to see my eyes widen in my black screen's reflection haha
I've been such a big fkn fan of guilty gear I'm so happy I can finally learn about the lore in an interesting way. I haven't had the time to pick up the pieces because of university but I'm super glad it's in this format
I'm a huge fan of the series, but no matter how hard I try I can't put the pieces together. Thank you for doing these videos. Can't wait for the next one! I didn't skip any ads and watched them all!
So cool! I'd only known Guilty Gear as that stylish anime fighter, but hearing the bits and pieces you talked about on the podcast got me to watch these videos. Can't wait for the next part! Awesome job on the visuals and music choice, Woolie! Stay awesome!
Yo man I really hope you keep going with this series not only is it beyond fantastic, the way you explain and present them is so good I don't think I can settle for anyone else.
Amazing as always, having finished watching rev 2's story, every Ky and Sol's interaction makes me understand better why there were so nervous when it was revealed they were *gasp* related. Also damn so much content and still no I-No? I wanna know what her deal is! I thought Midnight Carnival was the first gg x game.
To be fair, one won't get the lore this summarized and explained in the games. There's a reason getting into the lore of this franchise is no easy business if done by yourself.
@@EXDAN12 Yeah, but imo the way story mode was told in XX series and two first Blazblue games was one of the most interesting among video games. Story from multiple perspectives, with various endings giving more information about the characters and some lore. Shame they later changed to linear story. It does have it's advantages (a lot more happens during a single title), but it's nowhere near as interesting in it's execution.
I’ve been a fan of the Guilty Gear series ever since I played GGX on the Dreamcast. Thanks for doing this series dude, already learned a lot from both of these episodes.

Omg, omg, omg... I NEED the next video In this series, I just need it so much! The videos are amazing, the story is so damn exciting, you are an AMAZING narrator, and the production is so good! I can’t wait ‘till the next video comes out!
I mean, it's a series where most of the dudes are named after fucking rock bands and most of the attacks are named after either bands or albums (Ky's signature move is outright named Ride the Lightning for fuck's sake and he has a finishing move called Rising Force)
It's not a parallel universe. The Backyard is where the world's source code is stored, essentially. Think Akashic Records, but it's an entire dimension.
There is doubt about what happened to Jam's Restaurant, but there is an ending in Story Mode in GGXX(?) that displays Milia and Venom fighting over Zato, causing it to be Destroyed.
The set up to everyone coming across one another in their quest to apprehend Dizzy is sick as fuck. Basically it's the reason why everyone appears on the character select screen
I played a lot of GG and thought I knew most of the lore, but didn't even know that whole golden discs event existed. Wow, there's so much I'm missing!

This was great!!!! You did so much better on the sound on this one and i could actually hear you speaking! Im so excited to see the next one!
Another Heaven or Hell video? You made my day, Woolie. You're doing an amazing job on this series.
The naming conventions in this series is absolutely bananas. The parallel universe is called The Backyard?
I mean, it's a series where most of the dudes are named after fucking rock bands and most of the attacks are named after either bands or albums (Ky's signature move is outright named Ride the Lightning for fuck's sake and he has a finishing move called Rising Force)
It's not a parallel universe. The Backyard is where the world's source code is stored, essentially. Think Akashic Records, but it's an entire dimension.
These are so good, I already cant wait for the next one
Thank you for this Woolie 🥰
My algorithm is insane/scary. Because I've been playing so much gg lately and can't wait to see how strive is gonna be.
Jesus fuck, this is SSS content, you deserve more views my dear Woolz
Incredible work again Woolie, the production values are off the chart. Around the launch of Strive I can see the view count shooting up big time.
Holy shit ArcSys nees to get on an anime asap, this shit slaps. Keep up the good work Wools can't wait for the next one!
Where is part 3, your voice is so good ! I loved listening to the lore !!!
Truly God's Work is Being Done.
there needs to be an anime of this holy shit its so interesting
There is doubt about what happened to Jam's Restaurant, but there is an ending in Story Mode in GGXX(?) that displays Milia and Venom fighting over Zato, causing it to be Destroyed.
The set up to everyone coming across one another in their quest to apprehend Dizzy is sick as fuck. Basically it's the reason why everyone appears on the character select screen
Don't be discouraged from turning up the music whenever you're not talking. Like at 14:12 would be the perfect time to let the music rock.
Are we all just gonna gloss over the fact that Faust straight up cured someone of being blind?
I played a lot of GG and thought I knew most of the lore, but didn't even know that whole golden discs event existed. Wow, there's so much I'm missing!
Even in Woolie's video Sol activates Dragon Install "totally on purpose"
