BlazBlue Radio, better known for its Japanese name Buluraji or Bururaji which stands for "Blue Radio", is a web-based radio show based on the BlazBlue series produced by Toshimichi Mori and primarily serves to promote the aforementioned series. It stars Asami Imai, Tomokazu Sugita, and Kanako Kondo, the voices of Tsubaki Yayoi/Izayoi, Ragna the Bloodedge, and Noel Vermillion respectively, as Super-Deformed versions of their characters (based on the "Teach Me, Miss Litchi!" segments of the games). Unique to Buluraji is the fact that it's also part visual media, allowing the series to display fanart submitted by listeners and use various styles of art to comedic effect.The show has been produced in various seasons, each of which has a unique focus. There are also various specials hosted for certain events.

Does This Remind You of Anything?: When asked what Ragna says in his unique Battle Intro with Noel in Cross Tag Battle, Sugita's response is "Teach it to my body..." with an ahegao. Sugita claims that he was recording for an otome dating sim right before showing up to record Buluraji.

Mythology Gag: The giant red subtitle font from Kill la Kill is used extensively throughout NEO #6, which has Ryouka Yuzuki on as a guest to promote the release of KILL la KILL - IF.

Oddly Named Sequel: The various seasons of Buluraji are named this way. It started with just Buluraji, then we got ZOKU · Buluraji, which is then followed by Buluraji WIDE, then Buluraji HYPER, then Buluraji ACE, then Buluraji QUICK, then Buluraji DYNAMIC, and now we have Buluraji NEO. What is the meaning of the bold letters. With the exception of ZOKU, the bold letters are the only part of the second half you can see on the video titles as well as on the season logo. NEO stands out since you can read the whole word, and ZOKU is written in kanji.

comment
Suicide as Comedy: In NEO#01, Sugita pretends to hang himself after Imai's unamused reaction to a joke he made about Ruby Rose. Imai later repeats the joke after plugging Steins;Gate 0 in the "Cross Quiz Battle" segment.

Two Girls and a Guy: The core cast is composed of two women and Tomokazu Sugita. Can escalate to The Smurfette Principle if a female guest is on.

 BlazBlue Radio (Radio) / int_89a17726
comment
Spell My Name With An S: Many fans spell Buluraji as Bururaji, due to way it is pronounced in Japanese and the fact that it is written in hiragana. The official website and its e-mail address spell it as Buluraji. There have been other examples within the show, such as Bluradi or Buluradi.

Art-Shifted Sequel
 BlazBlue Radio (Radio) / int_93589d60
comment
Art-Shifted Sequel: NEO does away with the 2D sprites from the core BlazBlue series and uses the Super-Deformed 3D models and lobby from BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle. The new 3D models are more or less based on the old sprites, but are more expressive due to the extra dimension of movement.

comment
Foreshadowing: In NEO #1, Asami Imai gets her own avatar in a 3D Izayoi chibi, and spends a good chunk of the episode begging Mori to put Tsubaki in Cross Tag Battle. This lines up perfectly with a datamine that revealed that Izayoi is a future DLC character. Also in NEO#01, Sugita and Kondo jokingly state that Mai Natsume will get in before Tsubaki after the Tsubaki's Wishlist NEO segment. Mai being added to Cross Tag is also confirmed by the datamine.

comment
Rock–Paper–Scissors: This is how pen name term "Buluraji Name" was decided in episode #03. Sugita, Kondo, Imai and Daisuke Ishiwatari picked each a name and played rock-paper-scissors to determine which one of them will become the radio's offial term. Imai won in the first round with scissors. There's a rock-paper-scissor match between Kondo and Megumi Han.

Epic Fail: At the end of the "Cross Quiz Battle" segment in NEO#01, everyone has 0 points due to most of them making joke answers. However, Sugita liked Imai's "Metal Oopa" answer, so they decided to give her the win.

Rape Portrayed as Redemption
 BlazBlue Radio (Radio) / int_b5b5ba3c
comment
Rape Portrayed as Redemption: Played for Laughs in NEO#04, where Yoko Hisaka describes Weiss's character by saying that she starts the series cold, aloof, and outright hostile towards Ruby at times before mellowing out and becoming nicer. Sugita remarks that if RWBY were a visual novel, Weiss would get assaulted and the player would have to decide whether or not to save her; Hisaka quickly interjects that nothing like that happens in the series.

Color-Coded Characters
 BlazBlue Radio (Radio) / int_bb660963
comment
Color-Coded Characters: The radio makes it easier for the listeners by displaying dialogue texts. The color of the text is generally based on the seiyuu's character. The three hosts have red, blue and purple dialogue texts whereas the guests have green text. However, when more than one guest appear in the show, the standard green is omitted and each guest is given a different color for that particular episode. Daisuke Ishiwatari and Yūichi Nakamura always get the standard green, and Mori later received his own unique color. For more, see the character sheets.

comment
Combat Sadomasochist: When asked what Ruby is Squeeing about in Cross Tag Battle's "Episode RWBY", Kondo claims that Ruby is excited because Yosuke and Yukiko are going to beat her up. Conversely, Sugita claims that Ruby is excited about beating them up. Obviously, neither answer is correct. This is lampshaded by Sugita, who accompanies it with an Evil Laugh.

Art Evolution

Art Evolution: Asami Imai and Kanako Kondo have changed avatars over time to reflect the in-universe status of the characters they play. Kondo's Noel avatar switched to hatless and uses her updated design after the release of Chronophantasma, and during the early days of Chronophantasma, Imai switched from her normal Tsubaki to a Dark Tsubaki avatar (since her character is Brainwashed and Crazy for most of CP) before switching to an Izayoi avatar. Sugita has never changed avatars due to Ragna never changing appearance in-story.

Vomit Discretion Shot: When asked what dish Noel made for Hyde in Cross Tag Battle's "Episode UNIEL", Kanako Kondo claims it's an ajillo. Sugita says it looks more like it would make the unfortunate victim scream "ahiiii!" and "lloooo!", the latter of which is covered up by a picture of a grassy field and Izayoi saying "Sorry!"

Product Placement

comment
Product Placement: While the entire point of the show is to promote Arc System Works' games, they (or the seiyuu) occasionally promote other things that may or may not be related to the show. For example, in NEO #1, there was an additional plug for Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight and Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight despite both being Atlus games.

Running Gag: In NEO #2, during a rapid-fire Q&A segment, Ami Koshimizu starts answering most of the questions with "Poop", which is referenced by a counter on-screen showing how many times she says it. The exception is one question towards the end, where she forces herself to say "Sailor Moon" instead due to being a Sailor Moon Fangirl.
