Successor to the Fifth Magician, The Magic Gunner
One of only five magicians who exist in the world.
Successor to the Fifth Magician. Overall, she is not considered a skilled magician.
However, when it comes to “destructive” power, she is unrivaled in her talents.
The sight of her raining down bullets like hot geysers has also given her the direct,
yet rather tasteless nickname, “Magic Gunner”.
Who she learned it from is unknown, but she is also familiar with martial arts, and has a battle style that could be considered a hybrid of those martial arts and magic.
She encountered Shiki on her travels. She gave him his glasses that suppress his Mystic Eyes, and taught him the value of living things and how to handle things.
For that reason, Shiki respects her and calls her his teacher.
She’s a difficult person to pin down. She believes in justice, is unreliable, and a vagabond.
Battle Characteristics
A versatile character with set techniques and long-range magical attacks that add pressure. Her mobility and martial arts make her a tricky opponent.
“Aoko Aozaki” excels at a battle style that involves restricting enemy movement with long-range attacks and set projectiles, while punishing foes with both long- and close-range combos whenever they leave an opening. She has a wide variety of techniques at both short and long range, and her tricky versatility makes her an opponent who can hold her own in any situation if played well.
She is also a powerful character in the air, with her high mobility, triple-jumps, and special ability to Aerial Dash twice.
A massive Special that creates a magic circle and fires three shots of a gigantic magical beam. The range is long enough to reach the edge of the screen, allowing players to incorporate it into combos from a variety of other moves, massively increasing damage. It also grants “invincibility”, making it an effective counter when on the defensive.
Restrains the opponent and summons a wave of flowers! An incredible Special that fires magical shots so powerful they are audible, using energy from her magic circuits. This move can only be used at the cost of 4 full Magic Circuit gauges, or will activate under a Blood Heat status after successfully using Shield.
Dead Apostle Noel
Check out her introductory video for battle animations, Special effects, and fighting styles.

A lovely girl who hides her daytime self in the darkness / A fallen hunter who hunts her prey like a wolf in the night
A certain executor who has become a dead apostle.
She now appears as a girl at her most lovely, who has also acquired the Mystic Eyes of Roses
in addition to the abilities of a dead apostle.
She is able to forcefully remove the soul of her target and lock them away in her Mystic Eyes of Roses,
where they experience an unending nightmare. Not only that,
but she is also able to manipulate a large number of spears (bells) in a battle style evocative of a dancing butterfly.
Battle Characteristics
She restrains opponents with projectiles and traps, in a battle style evocative of a dancing butterfly.
“Dead Apostle Noel” is a medium to long-range type character with long reach, a variety of projectiles, and also powerful Set attacks she can use at any time. She excels at a battle style that involves tactical retreats and keeping her distance, while using projectiles and Set techniques to disrupt enemy movements.
An ultra-powerful Special that launches a huge number of spears forward from “Dead Apostle Noel”, impaling and imprisoning opponents.
The rain of spears gives players a chance to really push on the offensive, even if the enemy dodges their first attack. It also grants “invincibility”, making it effective when on the defensive after an enemy closes in.
An incredibly powerful Special that activates her “Mystic Eyes of Roses” to trap enemies in their own nightmares. The move plays out as an illusionist’s show, where she seals her foe in a present and impales them with a spear. This move can only be used at the cost of 4 full Magic Circuit gauges, or will activate under a Blood Heat status after successfully using Shield.
New Stages!
The first DLC adds three new stages, “Summer Sky”, “Magician’s Night EX”, and “Crimson Chapel”. Choose “Magician’s Night EX” when selecting a stage and use “Aoko Aozaki” to see a different starry sky! We hope you enjoy these stages for a change of pace!
