Birthday
2008. Included message:
12/25 is Noel's birthday.
She may be a Praetorian Guard who's bad at reading people, but she works hard and entered the military to help her parents. She's weak to cute things, and during the main scenario asked Litchi to "let go of the panda"..."It's cowardly to fight while using a panda as a shield! And that body too!" From such a misunderstanding, she held a grudge and fought haphazardly. But, well, from another point of view, they seem like an older sister and a younger sister; a heartwarming pair. From now on, I'd like to bless each characters' birthdays a little. Thank you for continuing to follow BlazBlue, as well as Noel!
Arc System Works "BLAZBLUE" Director:
Toshimichi Mori
2009. Toshimichi Mori. Good afternoon everyone, it's the miscellaneous P (Producer) Mori. December 25th is Noel's birthday! Completely unrelated to Christmas!! And why a swimsuit, in this terrible cold??? Speaking of which, please toss it with the non-sprouting garbage. Now then, this birthday illustration started with Noel and has returned to Noel. Meaning, it's been a year!! Fast!! And so I drew Noel. I don't know if it's liked or not, but please do continue to support BlazBlue in the future.
2010. Ito. Happy birthday Noel! Since your birthday is on Christmas, I attempted to draw you as Santa. Viva Santa outfits!!
Included message:
It's finally arrived this year! It's Lady Noel's birthday. It's the third time celebrating her birthday since she's become playable! May we get along well in the future as well.
Arc System Works "BLAZBLUE" Producer: Toshimichi Mori
2011. Tengu. Receiving presents, celebrating with a rifle salute, Arakune is, satisfied.
Included message:
Good day everyone, it's Mori. It's the beloved Arakune. ...I think this every year, but... Is this guy's birthday really today?
Arc System Works "BLAZBLUE" Producer: Toshimichi Mori
2012. Sumeragi. Happy birthday, Noel!
2014. Sumeragi. Happy birthday to the three ladies born on Christmas!
2017. Today is Noel Vermillion's birthday! ...And a happy merry Christmas 🎄✨Have a wonderful day with treasured friends and family♪
2017. We present to you an illustration from the staff for Noel's birthday🎄A lovely Noel wearing the Novus Orbis Librarium's uniform!
2017. We present to you an illustration from the staff for Noel's birthday! How about a birthday cake that's also a Christmas cake?
Staff Extras
Takumi Inoue. Inoue, designer. What's important is sensitivity.
Toshimichi Mori. What's important is the back
Hideharu Kato. I am Kato Eiji, and I’m in charge of the backgrounds and effects in BlazBlue. I hardly get the chance to draw characters for work, so this was a great learning experience for me. I hope this is one of your favorites! Keep playing BlazBlue!
Makoto Ito. This is Ito, from Arc System Works. And this is Noel laying on a beach. I was going for that illusionary, dreamy feeling.
Shigetaka Kimura. How do you do? This is Kimura. Mr. Mori told me he thought Noel’s breasts were a little on the large side in this image. I submitted it anyway.
Shigetaka Kimura. I hope you’re all doing fine. Kimura reporting. Once again, SOMEONE got mad at me for making Noel’s breasts too large. The generous Mr. Mori is now recruiting little girls. If you believe you are Noel, please send us an e-mail.
Kabukichotan. So I just learned having your bangs cut straight across is called "mushroom bangs."
Hiromi Kageyama. This was used in Gamer Magazine. I tried giving it that magazine-like touch. If there really was a magazine like this, though, I'd love to read it.
Yuki Sugiyama. The ADV of love and friendship... BlazBlue: Continuum Shift. Used in a gaming Magazine.
Junya Motomura. Rebel One... Action!! I tried to get as much "motion" into this image as I possibly could. My overarching theme was, make the men more manly and the women more cute...y. Heh. Anyway, I got greedy with adding characters, and this is the result.... I'll just go dig a hole right now.
Takumi Inoue. Please, don't forget about me!! **This brave soldier has since parted ways with ASW and is working freelance... please give him your support! (by Yamanaka D).
Junya Motomura. They are no doubt the most unfortunate triplet of friends in BlazBlue, but watching them fight their struggles and conflicts always plucks my heartstrings.
Hidehiko Sakamura. Noel, in her unhappy state once again... Am I the only one who's beginning to think that unhappiness might actually suit her?
"Noel & Tsubaki & Makoto" Nanasuke Arima. So this is the rumored girls' gathering...!
Sumeragi. Because I drew so much the other day, I drew Hibiki again with a revenge! & Noel! Please enjoy this time's Blue Radio A with guest Mitsuhiro Ichiki, Hibiki's voice actor!
"BBCP 2.0 activate!"
Toshimichi Mori. BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma 2.0 activate!! (begin operation!!)
Sumeragi. This time's preview of Blue Radio is a female pajama party, perhaps that one person from "BlazBlue: Remix Heart" Volume 4's cover illustration...!?
"Bot" Toshimichi Mori. Ahahahaha... this is a bot. By the way, it's been a while since I last drew Noel?
"Noel" Toshimichi Mori. She can be graceful sometimes.
Toshimichi Mori. Vertex's figure of Noel Vermillion in her old uniform has been released. And [for] convenience. [1]
Toshimichi Mori. BlazBlue's 10th anniversary! ...So, here's the roughs for the first arcade poster I ever drew. Hm, I pay my respects to hard work (looking at it from above, ten years later).
Guest Artwork
"Grand prize in the BlazBlue Portable Release Illustration Contest" Izumi Yuukawa (勇河聖泉). It's a great honor to receive the grand prize. Since it's for an illustration contest, I thought I would draw the characters that I liked, but I liked all the characters from CT so I ended up cramming them all in. Since there's only fascinating characters, it was fun to draw. BlazBlue is the best!
Included message:
Izumi Yuukawa, congratulations on the grand prize. I thought the usage of color was very good, and the overall composition was arranged very neatly. I think it's quite difficult to draw all the characters together in a group, but please continue to love BlazBlue's characters in the future as well.
Producer: Mori Toshimichi
"Excellence award in the BlazBlue Portable Release Illustration Contest" Hiyopi (ひよぴ). Hello, my name is Hiyopi. Thank you for awarding me the excellence award! I drew a Noel and Tsubaki who have achieved great success even in Blue Radio. If I do say so myself, I'm working hard at playing Tsubaki, so if we ever meet online, please go easy on me. By the way, did you say this illustration would appear in the official console version!? Can you see this yay!? ヽ(*゜д゜)ノカイバー
Included message:
The hand-painted matte feeling and wonderful composition drew me in. There were many good illustrations, but I chose one that I felt brought out the artist. Congratulations on the excellence award.
Lead Designer: Yuuki Kato
Kannatsuki Noboru. Hello... I'm not sure what to say, but...I guess I pass as an artist nowadays, heh. My name is Kannatsuki Noboru. I simply let my instincts decide for me and drew Noel and Rachel. Oh yes, Noel...you don't seem to be lacking anywhere... Although, it might be slightly...augmented...in the illustration. I should've played with them a little more. Err... never mind...
Hiroe rei. I am the mangaka who is also known by the name Hiroe rei. Right now, I've got the series "Black Lagoon" running in "Monthly Sunday GX" (Shogakukan). Please look forward to the 3rd OVA, too!
Sumeragi. This image exists because I got a few requests to draw something where Ragna, Jin, and Noel are all fighting shoulder to shoulder, side by side. Oh, I just love illustrations with narratives...protecting, helping each other out...!
Sumeragi Kohaku. It's a pleasure to meet you! My name's Sumeragi Kohaku. I must be honest, I'm the kind of guy who'll be happy for 2 weeks thinking about what lies under Tao's coat... Did I just say that out loud?
Shikidouji. Shikidouji, here. I took the liberty to draw Noel this time around. The little girl who fights her battles stoic and collected. Deciding the pose was the easy part...drawing, not so much.
Shigenori Soejima. Hello, I'm Soejima from Atlus. Thanks to a little collaboration we're doing right now, I was fortunate enough to be able to illustrate for BlazBlue. Noel's just adorable, isn't she? Gosh I love gun-wielding characters. Also, don't forget to check out, "Persona 4: The Ultimate Midnight Arena" when it comes out!

Early Designs
Yuuki Kato. Noel and Carl's designs were solidified pretty quickly. Maybe because they were stuffed full of wild ideas from Mori-P?
