Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game)	comment	Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 is a Run-and-Gun game in the Azure Striker Gunvolt Series developed by Inti Creates, with assistance from Keiji Inafune of Level-5 comcept as "Action Supervisor". It is the fifth game in the Gunvolt series (following Luminous Avenger iX 2) and the third main numbered entry (following Azure Striker Gunvolt 2). The game was released for the Nintendo Switch on July 28th, 2022 and for the Xbox One and Xbox Series X\|S on August 2, 2022. A PC version for Steam was released on October 13, 2022 while the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 versions were released December 15, 2022.Eden's defeat at the end of Gunvolt 2 put a temporary halt to the disaster looming over the planet. However, the myriad trials Gunvolt has endured caused a metamorphosis within him to activate, awakening to a dangerous new power only known as "Primal Dragon" and causing his Azure Striker powers to run amok. Desperate to stop himself from losing control, Gunvolt turned himself over to Sumeragi, his former sworn enemy, and with the power of 1000 Glaives, sealed himself away.Many years later, Shadow Yakumo, a sister organization of Sumeragi, receives word of a dangerous threat lurking in the depths of Sumeragi's facilities. Kirin, a Battle Maiden from Shadow Yakumo, is sent to assess the situation, and uses her power, Radiant Fetters, to stop a transformed Gunvolt on the verge of rampage. Now with Gunvolt by her side, Kirin sets forth to stop an outbreak of Primal Dragon incidents caused by Gunvolt's rampant power, but unbeknownst to them, a shadowy organization from a distant land seeks to use that power to change the world as we know it...Gunvolt 3 aims to completely alter the gameplay of the Gunvolt series in ways never before seen. Kirin and Gunvolt work together as a Tag Team, using each others' powers to wreak havoc on enemies. Kirin is a melee-focused Adept whose Septima, Radiant Fetters, allows her to use talismans to disable enemy Collision Damage and chain together attacks to defeat multiple foes in succession. By building Fetters Gauge, Kirin can tag out and trade places with Gunvolt, whose awakened might has evolved his powers to their most potent iteration yet, giving him access to the almighty Voltaic Arts. In lieu of a traditional equipment system, players can obtain Image Pulses, illusions given form by the combined power of Azure Striker and Radiant Fetters. Image Pulses can be equipped to the duo to grant them passive boons or summon them for powerful support or attacks, and can be upgraded by spending Credits to strengthen their abilities.

In all other cases, Kirin and Gunvolt are locked in the room and must rely on the assistance from a support character to disable the alarm system, making it more necessary to defeat all enemies.

Kirin and Gunvolt are pretty weirded out. B.B. unsurprisingly joins in on it. Subverted in Golden Palace 2 "Karma" where Serpentine's illusion of Male Zonda blatantly flirts with Kirin and all but outright suggests a threesome with her and Gunvolt, but as anyone who's played 2 knows Zonda is actually a young teenaged girl.

Kirin barely has time to state even this many Glaives can't contain that much power before Gunvolt wakes up and proceeds to break loose of them.

However, due to the lengthy Time Skip, the large amount of Dragon Radiation emitted has begun to cause Adepts across the country to become Primal Dragons, causing them to run amok and cause havoc. In addition, Adepts who become Primal Dragons emit Dragon Radiation that affects weaker Adepts around them and even machines, turning them hostile.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77	type	Multiple Endings
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77	comment	Multiple Endings: Normal Ending: Defeat the final boss. Although Kirin successfully manages to defeat Gunvolt, it's not enough as Moebius continues to rampage out of control. At risk of losing himself permanently and causing the complete annihilation of the world, Gunvolt musters the last of his strength to impale himself on Kirin's blade, fatally wounding him. As Gunvolt fades away into nothingness, Kirin collapses in shock and disbelief. True Ending: Defeat the final boss by using the infinite Talismans granted by Djinn's Wish to full lock Moebius without dealing damage to it. Kirin successfully manages to seal Gunvolt and Moebius' combined power, stabilizing their fusion. Gunvolt, realizing that he must change his own fate to stop himself from bringing the world to ruin and also learning Moebius was also trying to prevent the world's destruction by Gunvolt's hands, uses the power of Astral Order, transforming into an azure light and vanishing into the night with the implication that he reincarnated in order to buy Kirin time to find a solution to the Primal Dragon problem. In the aftermath, Primal Dragon incidents begin to rapidly increase all over the planet as a result of Moebius' awakening. ATEMS reaches a mutual agreement with Sumeragi and depart on peaceful terms, while the Dragon Saviors are set to work subjugating Primal Dragons across the country. Kirin, at peace with the fact that Gunvolt has survived their shared ordeal, resolves to continue fighting for the future that Gunvolt sacrificed himself for. While the True Ending got updated to have a scene giving important context that explains the truth of Gunvolt's disappearance in later versions of the game, if the player has the GV? Image Pulse equipped for the final battle, they can see the original version of the True Ending without these alterations in which Gunvolt's fate is left up in the air with very little explanation for what happened to him. Secret Ending: Collect 150 non-DLC Image Pulses thoroughout the game and defeat the Final Boss while getting the True Ending. This unlocks a fully-voiced Joke Ending parodying a Magical Girl show where Mytyl reveals she was given back the pendant containing her Septima by Xiao and is now journeying through the world of Adepts in "Striker Princess Mytyl".

Merak/Teseo: In Golden Palace 2, jump into a bottomless pit in the penultimate area of the stage after the final checkpoint but before the Hexapyle. Nova: In the Moebius boss battle, equip either of Nova's Image Pulses, then get hit by Moebius' Limit Break as Gunvolt. Asimov: In the Moebius boss battle, equip any of Asimov's Image Pulses, then get hit by Moebius' Limit Break as Berserk GV (Kirin must die first to trigger Anthem).

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_1c445e86	comment	Poor Communication Kills: Upon encountering Moebius, Gunvolt receives a sudden vision of a Bad Future where he causes The End of the World as We Know It, which ZedÎ© comments on even if he doesn't know the details by explaining Moebius's ability to bend fate to a particular future. Gunvolt sees this vision again after the initial fight with Moebius and when the baby Primal Dragon possesses him trying to attack Kirin, and assumes from this that Moebius intends to force him to enact that future. However, actually translating Moebius' Starfish Language in its Special attack and Image Pulses shows that Mobius is trying to kill Gunvolt in order to save the world due to it seeing said future where the Azure Striker destroys it, and is attacking Kirin as well because she's a threat to Moebius doing this. Their inability to recognize what the other really wants results in the Final Boss battle where, in the Normal Ending, both Gunvolt and Moebius end up dead by Kirin's hand when GV forces it.

Unlike Radiant Fetters, Anthem can only keep Gunvolt contained for so long, and even with Anthem holding him down he gains an explosive increase in power. If Gunvolt spends too much time in Anthem, his full power unleashes itself, causing The End of the World as We Know It.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_1f39b662	type	Discard and Draw
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_1f39b662	comment	Discard and Draw: The resident Kudos booster equips in this game come in the form of the True Zonda Passive Image Pulses. When equipped, your max HP is capped in exchange for boosting Kudos gain. Unlike previous games, you can stack them, since there are both 1â˜… and 3â˜… versions of her; doing so boosts Kudos gain even further but caps your HP so low that it automatically puts you into "critical HP" status. The DLC Passive Image Pulse "The Beast" Gibril increases Kirin's sword and Talisman damage when she has Chain 4.0x, but decreases it when she has Kudos Lock. As SP Skills no longer remove Kudos on use and recharge faster than previous games, Skill Finish bonuses have been removed entirely except on bosses and minibosses, preventing you from cheesing mooks for free points. The "Primal Dragon" Gunvolt passive Image Pulse causes you to start every stage as Special GV. Starting the stage with Gunvolt this way makes him considerably weaker; Concentration only slows the rate of Fetters Gauge depletion rather than halting it completely, Prevasion takes a whopping 30% of the gauge, and Gunvolt's damage output is significantly reduced (although not enough to matter on mooks). In return, Gunvolt can regenerate Fetters Gauge from Kudos Bonuses, and completing the entire stage without letting the Fetters Gauge deplete awards a unique SS rank for bragging rights. The Shiron DLC Passive Image Pulse decreases the damage of Kirin's Talismans and disables her ability to earn Kudos Bonuses in exchange for massively increasing the Kudos earned by dealing damage. The Mytyl DLC Passive Image Pulse reduces the consumption of the Fetters Gauge when playing as Gunvolt, but in return increases the Prevasion consumption. Also, it can't be used in conjunction with the "Primal Dragon" Gunvolt Passive Image Pulse. The Zonda DLC Passive Image Pulse drastically reduces Kirin's sword damage, but greatly increases the damage accumulated by her talismans. This prioritizes Arc Chain kills over simple hack-and-slash. The Kirin XX and "Anthem" LUMEN DLC Passive Image Pulses lock GV into only being able to use Luxcalibur or Voltaic Chains respectively as his SP Skill, preventing him from using any other SP Skills but removing the need to obtain a certain overcharge percentage of the Fetters Gauge before switching him in.

However, it can only be used once per mission, and as you cannot swap a Skill Image Pulse that is on cooldown, it effectively locks you out of a Skill slot for the remainder of the mission. Likewise, the Invincibility Power-Up can only be used once per mission, but lasts for a full 90 seconds when fully upgraded. The unlockable Very Hard Mode difficulty renders any Skill Image Pulse to one use per mission. The "Resurrection" Elise DLC Skill Image Pulse can only be used once per mission, but in return will revive Kirin to full health and boost the Fetters Gauge when fully upgraded.

The final boss' skill Astral Order is highly reminiscent of Zonda's Paradise Lost. Both are used by adepts who possess the power of the Muse, both cause their wielders to sprout large wings, both render their users completely invincible, both drain their victims to death, and both are stopped by outside interference (Astral Order is countered by Zed and Layla after it temporarily kills Kirin, while you (the player) need to sing a song to counter Paradise Lost). "Potential World" is mentioned in the Flavor Text of Special Mission 13, a phrase previously used by Kirin, when referring to Moebius's powers after being warped to the Grave Pillar. The 1.1.0 update added the ability to play as Kirin XX, which gives Kirin all of her Secret A.I. Moves from Luminous Avenger iX 2, including infinite talismans, a talisman spread shot, clone summoning, and summoning swords. Her Limit Break is also replaced by a version of 88th Rite - Pale Mist.

However, he also does not have access to the Azure Spirits or additional SP Skills from the previous game directly (he uses a souped-up Crashbolt when tagging in with Kirin and uses powered-up versions of Crashbolt and Grand Strizer during the True Final Boss Fight), though he's kept all three of his regular offensive SP Skills (though once again they're tweaked so that they're either his Limit Break depending on how much of the Fetters Gauge was built up before transforming or regular attacks while in Anthem).

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_2b50986a	comment	Arrange Mode: D-nizer Mode was added in the 1.1.0 update. It is an endurance mode where you play through every stage in the game up to the final ZedÎ© fight while exclusively using a special version of Gunvolt. Rather than having access to Kirin, Gunvolt can "Dragonize" and temporarily transform into Anthem Gunvolt, but using Anthem Gunvolt fills the G-Counter at the bottom left; if the G-Counter reaches 100%, it causes a Non-Standard Game Over. Credits earned in the mode can be used to purchase special Passive Image Pulses to supercharge Gunvolt's abilities. After clearing D-nizer, you can play harder versions, including Abilities Off (disabling Accessories) and Zero Counter (disabling Accessories and D-nize).

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae	type	Awesome, but Impractical
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae	comment	Awesome, but Impractical: One of the moves Kirin can learn is a Dash Attack that can be performed by pressing the R button while in the reload stance. This causes Kirin to rush forward with invulnerability, and an upgrade obtained in the second half of the game adds a slash attack to the end. Unfortunately, this has very little application throughout the game, as reloading requires Kirin to be on the ground, a situation she rarely finds herself in during stages if playing optimally, and in boss battles there are generally more efficient ways of dodging attacks via Arc Chain. Gunvolt's air dash can now tag enemies the same way Copen can do so in his own playable appearances, which sounds cool on paper. The problem is that unlike Copen, who has vastly superior aerial control, Gunvolt gets very little bounce off a foe when he collides with it, meaning that unless the thing you're attacking has suffered knockback and/or you're holding the directional stick away from the foe on impact, more often than not you'll just end up getting yourself hit and losing precious Fetters Gauge.

It's to the point that the antagonists are outright shocked that she doesn't finish them off. In the normal ending, being forced to kill Gunvolt shatters any optimism or positivity Kirin had.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6	type	Boring, but Practical
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6	comment	Boring, but Practical: Lola (P-Bit Mode)'s Flashshield is a fairly standard defensive tool, but considering that Kirin does not have an equivalent ability outside of parrying projectiles (unlike Gunvolt's Flashfield), it helps cover the gaps in her defenses when required. Likewise, Lola (Idol Mode) simply provides healing, but its short cooldown and instant use makes it useful in a pinch. B.B.'s passive Image Pulses give Kirin additional air jumps after using Arc Chain. Very basic upgrade, but considering Kirin needs to stay in the air to maintain Chain combos, having additional air jumps can make the difference in high scoring. Desna's passive Image Pulses similarly increase the height of Kirin's (ground and air) jumps. Very basic, but it works works for helping Kirin position herself properly to launch her talismans to keep Arc Chaining or just to better reach a platform otherwise unreachable. Monica's passive Image Pulses increases EXP gain. As leveling up means unlocking more slots for passive Image Pulses, it's very beneficial in the early and mid-game. Xiao's passive Image Pulses gives a 50% chance for an enemy to drop extra Credits upon defeat, and Shiron's passive Image Pulses increase the value of Credits obtained. As Credits are needed to level up the stronger Image Pulses, these make farming much easier. Tenjian's passive Image Pulse boosts the power behind Kirin's sword strikes, while Kirin's own passive Image Pulse boosts her offensive power against a foe she's tagged and performing an Arc Chain on. Nothing fancy, but particularly useful on higher difficulties against beefier enemies. Gunvolt has a ton of new toys to utterly decimate foes, including his new Voltaic Arts, but to offset his overpowered attributes all of his Kudos Bonuses from the previous games have been eliminated except for Double/Triple and Skill Finish, and he cannot earn Kudos at all with his other moves besides Lightning Discharge, his standard R button attack. This means that in spite of all the crazy One-Hit Kill maneuvers you can pull off, aiming for Kudos as Gunvolt essentially still boils down to tagging and frying just like every other game. The Elise 2 passive Image Pulse simply lets Gunvolt Tag more. The catch is that he can now Tag up to nine times with no decrease in overall power, meaning his effective attack range and damage just skyrockets.

However, GV and Kirin suspect something is off when they notice that there are ATEMS soldiers on it, with the one's chasing them with jet-boards (or on-foot as ninjas) being the majority of its passengers with those inside being its remainder. This is because that while they do disable the missiles, the missiles were never meant to be an attack; ZedÎ© reveals they were meant to simply allow him and his Knights to pierce through the barrier through their special properties and infiltrate the country, making it a subversion. Indeed, the heroes realize as they disable the missiles that they don't possess any explosive payloads, but instead generators that produce a powerful forcefield which, while capable of devastation through pure physics if they strike ground, aren't nearly as dangerous as originally assumed.

The start of this game involves Gunvolt suddenly suffering massive Power Incontinence and being forced to leave behind Quinn when his powers accidentally hurt her to be sealed away by Sumeragi, in the process nearly causing the end of the world and awakening to a world that has changed so much that it's virtually unrecognizable. There's no word on what happened to the rest of Gunvolt's old comrades or even enemies (i.e. Copen) aside from the possibility they went on with their lives without him.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_5989e3b6	comment	Enemy Mine: Prior to the start of the game, Gunvolt willingly turned himself over to Sumeragi, his former enemies, due to his inability to control his Primal Dragon powers, under the impression that their Glaives may be able to keep him contained. It worked... for a while, at least, but as Gunvolt's powers continued to grow over the years the Glaives became less effective, and if it weren't for Kirin arriving at exactly the right time he would have broken the seal and caused untold destruction. Zed and Layla decide to help Kirin stand up to Moebius at the end of the game, bestowing upon her their Septimal powers in order to resist the might of Astral Order.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_5a5de5ca	comment	Boss Rush: In a twist, the final three missions do not include a boss rush, since there are only four ATEMS Knights available split up amongst three stages. The closest is Golden Palace 2, which features fights against Jota/Viper, Zonda/Tenjian, Teseo/Merak (added and optional in Version 1.2 onwards), and Serpentine, but there's still an actual stage in between each encounter. There's also the standard traditional boss rush as Secret Mission 13.

The only boss immune is the Final Boss on Hard Mode or higher, who is immune to lethal damage anyway.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8	type	Guide Dang It!
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_6ec989d8	comment	Guide Dang It!: One property of the Arc Chain that is never outright stated is that holding forward while performing it causes Kirin to dash through the target, rather than just stopping in front of it as normal. A number of boss attacks require you to figure this out on your own to dodge them. The game does not fully explain how regaining Fetters Gauge as Special GV works. In addition to earning Double/Triple bonuses with Lock-On Flashfield and Lightning Assault, he can additionally earn back Fetters Gauge by performing Voltaic Buster. While this consumes a chunk of Fetters Gauge, it also recovers gauge based on how many enemies are taken out in a single Voltaic Buster, which can range from refunding the cost (if you only defeat one enemy) to earning back much more than you would have earned otherwise from a Kudos Bonus if you defeat several at once. In order to get access to the bosses added in later updates, the player has to perform unintuitive maneuvers which are only hinted by the game's official website. Merak/Teseo: In Golden Palace 2, jump into a bottomless pit in the penultimate area of the stage after the final checkpoint but before the Hexapyle. Nova: In the Moebius boss battle, equip either of Nova's Image Pulses, then get hit by Moebius' Limit Break as Gunvolt. Asimov: In the Moebius boss battle, equip any of Asimov's Image Pulses, then get hit by Moebius' Limit Break as Berserk GV (Kirin must die first to trigger Anthem).

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_6f064059	comment	Due to the game's heavy reliance on Arc Chain for certain stage elements and enemy gimmicks, Gunvolt's Lightning Assault (his counterpart to Arc Chain) costs no extra Fetters Gauge to execute initially, allowing him to get around these without worrying too much about burning additional Fetters Gauge. This can be exploited when playing as Special GV; since points are meaningless when going for SS Rank, you can quickly generate more Fetters Gauge than normal by using it to earn Double/Triple bonuses over Lock-On Flashfield in many situations. The game does have an Obvious Rule Patch, however; if you attempt to spam Lightning Assault on a boss by Button Mashing, the game will start draining your Fetters Gauge at an astronomical rate.

The only definitive hint as to how far along this game takes place relative to the prequels is in the Asimov boss battle, which is heavily implied to take place in a version of the Luminous Avenger iX timeline.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_844b6779	comment	Super Mode: Gunvolt functions as this for Kirin. Gunvolt can only tag in when the Fetters Gauge is at least 100% full, and when deployed, Fetters Gauge constantly depletes and is used up when attacking or Prevading damage. The tradeoff is Gunvolt being magnitudes more powerful than Kirin; he summons a flurry of Crashbolts to nuke half the screen on summon, is unkillable, has infinite air jumps and air dashes, can attack from range, passively destroys physical projectiles when not attacking, and has access to "Voltaic Arts", even more powerful techniques that eat through the Fetters Gauge but rip through enemies even harder. If Kirin goes down and Lumen's Anthem activates, Gunvolt will unlock his full power and take Kirin's place, allowing him to utterly devastate the rest of the stage at the cost of no longer being able to accrue Kudos and removing the HUD (except the boss bar) entirely until a Hexapyle is destroyed. He discards his Dart Leader completely in favor of using his septimal powers exclusively, he now flies instead of running, his Flashfield's contact damage is amplified, can now lock-on entire enemies and decimate them with Voltaic Arts, and constantly launch volleys of electric bolts when Flashfield is activated. The Final Boss on Hard Mode and above will trigger a power-up upon using his second Limit Break, signaled by Gunvolt's blue energy butterfly wings turning rainbow-colored, gaining both increased attack and defense for the rest of the fight. Thankfully, Moebius itself doesn't receive this defense boost, though it does get a full heal right before forcing Gunvolt to power up.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_9dab0a6e	comment	Continuity Nod: In the Stormy Megafloat stage, Kirin brings up Gunvolt's fear of water, in reference to Merak's stage in the first game where Gunvolt was unable to use his powers underwater. Gunvolt clarifies that his Primal Dragon powers have enabled use of his Septima underwater, and that powers aside he has conventional swimming training. A few chats involve the other Dragon Saviors members building model kits based on old Sumeragi war machines. These include the Mantis and Spyder prototypes that never made it to full production, both of which Gunvolt recounts fighting several decades ago during his previous operations. One chat has the team checking out the beta for Sumeragi's latest installment in the "September" series, which originally started as an MMO called "September Record" played by Elise and Merak in the voice dramas in the first game. For better or worse, the series has been continuing so long that the latest installment is subject to Oddly Named Sequel 2: Electric Boogaloo: "September Universe Tri-Age Spirits: Prologue of Reminiscence IV (Working Title)". Many of the Passive Image Pulse effects take inspiration from the characters that they are attached to. Quinn's Image Pulses all deal with healing, as Quinn herself was a source of support for Gunvolt for a good chunk of his life. "Azure Striker" Asimov is one of the few Image Pulses that affect Gunvolt by making it easier to perform Voltaic Busters, since Asimov has the same Septima as him. Elise's Image Pulses enhance the Wall Jump ability, calling back to her acrobatic stunts in her boss battle. Stratos's Image Pulses give Life Drain, a trait shared by his own Septima. Carrera's Image Pulses function as a Power-Up Magnet as Carerra's Septima revolves around manipulating magnetism. Copen's Image Pulses boost Kirin's maximum Talisman count, similar to how Copen can increase his maximum Bullit Gauge in Gunvolt 2 and in his own games. Tenjian, a natural swordfighter, boosts Kirin's sword damage. Desna's Image Pulses increase jump height, alluding to how her EX Weapon for Copen functions as a Double Jump. Gibril's Image Pulses function on Critical Status Buff and Discard and Draw, based on the self-harming nature of her Septima's full powers.

If Gunvolt's Fetters Gauge is sufficiently high (at or around 400%, which can only be accomplished with Image Pulses) and he has the "Azure Striker" Asimov Image Pulse equipped, it is possible to get a successful Voltaic Buster on bosses at full HP, instantly one-shotting them. The DLC Passive Image Pulse "Grand Strizer" GUNVOLT features the return of the SP Skill Grand Strizer from ASG2, which if used at sufficiently high Kudos level can one-shot bosses even at full HP.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_a45bcc1f	comment	One of the moves Kirin can learn is a Dash Attack that can be performed by pressing the R button while in the reload stance. This causes Kirin to rush forward with invulnerability, and an upgrade obtained in the second half of the game adds a slash attack to the end. Unfortunately, this has very little application throughout the game, as reloading requires Kirin to be on the ground, a situation she rarely finds herself in during stages if playing optimally, and in boss battles there are generally more efficient ways of dodging attacks via Arc Chain.

Dashing into a target that has 1 or 2 Tags causes electric bolts to target them and deal massive damage. Dashing into a fully tagged target with low enough HP initiates the powerful Voltaic Buster, where he pulls the target sky high before piledriving it into either the ground or another enemy, obliterating it instantly.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_bf110089	comment	Break Them by Talking: Serpentine's illusions attempt this in addition to literally trying to break the heroes. In addition to adopting the powers of the originals, the illusions also inherit the "personality" of the original but twists them to psychologically torment their target. Late in the game, Gunvolt and Kirin encounter illusions based on the Sumeragi Swordsmen and Eden's Seven, who sow seeds of doubt into Gunvolt over whether he has been truly fighting for the right things. Kirin, who is an outsider to Gunvolt's past, helps reassure him that no matter what he did in the past, the only thing that matters is what he does today.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_c75df49a	comment	Shout-Out: Dragon Radiation could be considered Gunvolt's equivalent to the Maverick Virus, with the Dragon Saviors standing in for the Maverick Hunters. After Kirin tells Cayman about her new airborne attack, he calls it a Shoryuken. When she talks to him about her second talisman upgrade, he starts to call it the Shinku Hadoken before she cuts him off. Prado's blue/red contrast and the attack she uses depending on which way she's facing is a reference to Silhouette Mirage where Shyna and her rival, Zohar has that same contrast, and even use different attributes depending on which screen they're facing. Her Septima's gimmick combined with the elements involved complete with one side of her body predominately using a certain element also brings to mind Shoto Todoroki, complete with her Septima's name "Hot & Cold". Gil also comes to mind with the colors and elements. Black Badge's boss introduction — the camera panning up to him standing on top of a tower and panning down as he jumps off-screen and descends — is a mirror of Hivolt's. One of Black Badge's Skill Image Pulses has him fly across the top of the screen and drops presents that contain credits and health items, much like how Rush could drop items for Mega Man in several games. At the start of the Mystic Mist stage, B.B. upon entry, shouts "Cowabunga!" The Mini-Boss of the Sandstorm stage, the Aspis, is similar in both name and form to the Desert Aspis from Mega Man ZX Advent that was also fought in a desert stage. From the Version 1.2 update, Teseo drops yet another one when pointing out Gunvolt's new canine form. One of the conversations at the base has Gunvolt asking Kirin if she's met any other sword users like her, with him specifically reminiscing about having met a red samurai who also used talismans to fight. While Kirin denies that samurai would even exist outside of cosplayers, this conversation references the Nightmare Mode ending of Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon, where Zangestu is suddenly seen being sent to the near future (aka Gunvolt's world). Another conversation with Shiron has him talking about a game where he plays as a mech-piloting corgi that fights through a demon-filled castle, referencing Curse of the Moon's sequel.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_d24ed873	comment	Developer's Foresight: In Cyber-Kowloon, Shiron's dialogue will differ depending on whether or not you are detected by his camera turrets. In the Forest stage, B.B. is scripted to take out specific enemies if the player is spotted in certain parts of the stage, and the designated enemies are specifically set up in such a way that avoiding them with normal means is rather difficult. However, if you manage to avoid them and defeat them without being spotted, the characters will react accordingly. Kirin's Limit Break name is normally called "92nd Rite Divine Ruin-Heresy" where she combines her attack with GV's, but if used during the S-FIT stage (where she's all by herself), it will be "Divine Ruin-Arc" and the invocation will be different. During the Final Boss fight, Kirin's line, invocation, and tone for "Divine Ruin-Arc" will be different. GV's portait is normally that of his sealed Raiju-self, however, if he's called into action, his dialogue portrait will change to reflect it. Kirin's portrait when GV is active will be illuminated and will speak with an echo effect like Lumen's. In Prado's boss intro, Prado shouts "Little kitten!" at the end of her opening battle cry, directed specifically towards Kirin. In D-nizer Mode, where Kirin is not present, this phrase is omitted from her boss intro.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3	type	Anti-Frustration Features
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_d6f284a3	comment	Anti-Frustration Features: Similar to the Bullit Dash, Kirin's Talismans and Gunvolt's Darts have a soft homing property that allows them to lock on if the firing angle is close enough to the target, ensuring that you don't have to perfectly line up your shots to hit them. There is now a Log feature that allows you to read dialogue from the pause menu, so you don't always have to look at the bottom of the screen to get all of the lore. It even includes skipped dialogue if you skip past it by progressing far enough, ensuring you don't have to slow down just to read the text. A small but significant change was made to the scoring system in this game: Unlike previous entries, where losing your Kudos at any point means that you likely have to start the entire stage over if you're going for a high rank, in this game your Kudos are "banked" into score at each checkpoint without actually taking your Kudos away, ensuring you aren't completely screwed if you die. In addition, triggering Anthem doesn't delete your Kudos like it does in previous games; it simply freezes your ability to earn Kudos until you clear the current area or beat the boss. This actually makes it more beneficial for your score as opposed to dying since you get to keep your Kudos. Similar to the Autochrome fight in Luminous Avenger iX 2, the battle against a rogue Sumeragi seaplane robot in the Stormy Megafloat stage takes place over a bottomless pit. If you're in the air when it's defeated, the defeat animation won't start playing until you land on solid ground. If you still fall into the pit anyway after it's defeated, the game immediately respawns you on solid ground without taking any health like usual. Since the chance of bosses getting an Auto-Revive is completely random, you get a bunch of free boons if it happens; on top of the bosses having much less HP than normal, SP Skills instantly recharge and Gunvolt does not revert if you used his SP Skill for a Skill Finish, allowing you to quickly take out the additional health bar. You can also get a second Skill Finish for even more Kudos, and the game gives you a bonus Image Pulse for free. Due to the game's heavy reliance on Arc Chain for certain stage elements and enemy gimmicks, Gunvolt's Lightning Assault (his counterpart to Arc Chain) costs no extra Fetters Gauge to execute initially, allowing him to get around these without worrying too much about burning additional Fetters Gauge. This can be exploited when playing as Special GV; since points are meaningless when going for SS Rank, you can quickly generate more Fetters Gauge than normal by using it to earn Double/Triple bonuses over Lock-On Flashfield in many situations. The game does have an Obvious Rule Patch, however; if you attempt to spam Lightning Assault on a boss by Button Mashing, the game will start draining your Fetters Gauge at an astronomical rate. As Special GV is on a timer and thus must move as quickly as possible, the game subtly makes a few adjustments to prevent wasted time. For example, any Multi-Mook Melee rooms in the second half of the game no longer spawn extra mobs that do not give Kudos (and thus skips the associated dialogue), and bosses will never Auto-Revive. There are no unique Image Pulse drops on Very Hard Mode aside from its First Pulse bonuses, allowing the player to freely grind the easier Normal and Hard difficulties, where Passive Image Pulses are usable, for elusive drops. Gunvolt gains a permanent Power-Up Magnet in D-nizer Mode as if he always has Carerra's Passive Image Pulse equipped, as Credits are required to purchase new equipment and Gunvolt cannot get them any other way except drops. As the final stage in D-nizer Mode is a Boss-Only Level, Gunvolt is awarded an item that automatically maxes out his Fetters Gauge for free so that you are not required to conserve gauge on Golden Palace 3. Version 1.1.0 tweaks the Image Pulse collection system by guaranteeing players will receive at least one new Image Pulse if possible after completing a mission. This massively cuts down on the Luck-Based Mission nature of collecting them.

Not only do they use their attacks from their past appearances, they even combine their Limit Breaks for a stronger Combination Attack Limit Break. The Version 1.2 update added an additional boss battle with Merak and Teseo tag-teaming, which can only be accessed by jumping into a certain bottomless pit in Golden Palace 2, in the third area right after the last checkpoint before the Hexapyle. The fight also includes additional new dialogue. After encountering them once, the fight is unlocked as a Secret Mission. The Version 1.3 update added a boss fight against Nova, which can only be accessed by equipping Nova's 3* Image Pulse and then being hit by Moebius' Damnatio Memoriae while playing as Gunvolt. Unlike the above boss battles, however, Nova's fight is almost completely revamped, with Nova using an updated moveset, lacking Lumen's Deflector Shield, and gaining both of the Mini-Mecha of his One-Winged Angel form as two Attack Drones aiding him. He also possesses the Azure Striker Septima he secretly sought for so long. The Version 1.4 update added a boss fight against Asimov. This fight is a heavily upgraded version of his True Final Boss battle from the original Azure Striker Gunvolt along with several upgraded moves from Luminous Avenger iX. When he Turns Red, several of his techniques even bring to mind altered versions of Demerzel's.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_eff83d77	type	Mundane Utility
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_eff83d77	comment	Mundane Utility: During the Time Skip in which Gunvolt was willingly contained by Sumeragi, Sumeragi started using Gunvolt as a makeshift energy source to power the entire country, using the excess electricity that was being emitted from his body. So much was being emitted that Japan was able to completely ditch fossil fuels, though as a consequence, Dragon Radiation suffused within the electricity was spreading and building up without anyone's knowledge across the country. At one point, Lumen suggests that B.B.'s Geist constructs could make good backup dancers for her concerts. In the second half of the game, Apollo is called in during certain stages to use his Septima on crates, turning them into makeshift floating platforms. When asked why he was working on Neptune, he states that his vector manipulation Septima was obviously well suited for the job.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_f3f391f6	comment	Fission Mailed: Shortly into the final battle against Moebius-possessed Gunvolt, he activates Astral Order, which renders him invincible as it drains Kirin to death. Just then, Zed and Layla butt in with their septimas to revive Kirin and counter Astral Order, restarting the final boss fight.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_f5144b92	comment	Tag Team: Kirin and Gunvolt are this, with the catch being that Gunvolt can only be tagged in when the Fetters Gauge is at least 100%, and it slowly ticks down over time, as Gunvolt uses his new abilities, or when he takes damage.

Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_f89f164a	type	Purposely Overpowered
Azure Striker Gunvolt 3 (Video Game) / int_f89f164a	comment	Purposely Overpowered: Gunvolt. For platforming, he retains his infinite jumps and air dashes he could get from Anthem in previous games. For combat, it goes without saying that he has Prevasion, but his moveset has been greatly expanded. His Flashfield now is active as long as he's not discharging energy, acting similar to Copen's Flashshield. Speaking of Copen, Gunvolt can also now dash into enemies to lock on to them, dashing into them again causes him to warp right through them, dealing damage in the process. If Gunvolt dashes into an enemy that has been tagged 3 times, he'll perform the Voltaic Buster, which is a One-Hit Kill on all enemies on screen, and if a boss's health is at least 1/3 depleted, it also works on bosses. He can also mimic Kirin's Arc Chain via Lightning Assault, as if he didn't have enough abilities. And that's all before Anthem triggers, upon which Berserk Gunvolt can now launch a pulse that instantly tags all enemies hit with multiple Tags, unleashes Astrasphere every time he discharges at Tagged foes, incorporates a Luxcalibur into his Dash Attack for extra damage, and he can spam Voltaic Chains with abandon for his Limit Break.
