In *BlazBlue Entropy Effect*, unlocking new characters is a unique process that involves collecting Prototype Analyzers. These special items are essential for unlocking the majority of the game's roster, with the exception of DLC characters, which are unlocked through purchase. This *BlazBlue Entropy Effect* character unlock guide will walk you through how to obtain Prototype Analyzers and provide a comprehensive list of all playable characters.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: How To Unlock Characters
Your journey begins right after completing the tutorial, where you receive your first Prototype Analyzer. To use it, exit the Acer Program room through the passage on your right, which leads to a room with a glowing platform. Interact with this platform to access the character selection menu and choose your desired character.
For subsequent unlocks, return to the same room and use additional Prototype Analyzers on the platform. Note that DLC characters like Rachel and Hazama, available as of March 2025, are automatically unlocked upon purchasing and installing their respective character packs.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: How To Get More Prototype Analyzers
In *Entropy Effect*, there are several ways to acquire more Prototype Analyzers, though each method requires patience and effort.
Progress the Story
Advancing through the game's story and completing training missions will help you unlock gray skills, and you'll earn Prototype Analyzers at specific milestones:
- Unlocking 10 gray skills
- Unlocking 20 gray skills
- Unlocking 40 gray skills
Additionally, you'll automatically receive a Prototype Analyzer after completing a significant event later in the story. Note that unlocking green skills via Potential does not reward Prototype Analyzers. As of now, without additional updates from developer 91Act, you can only obtain three Prototype Analyzers through story progression.
Complete Mind Challenges and Spend AP
Another avenue to obtain Prototype Analyzers is by spending AP earned from the Mind Challenge mode. You can trade 5,000 AP with the janitor for one Prototype Analyzer. However, this method is not frequent, so plan your spending carefully.
BlazBlue Entropy Effect: All Characters

Ragna the Bloodedge
Ragna is a melee fighter who gains power as his HP decreases. His unique ability allows him to sacrifice health for buffs and then recover some health by draining it from opponents.
Jin Kisaragi
Jin is another melee specialist, focusing on swordplay and ice-based abilities. He can freeze enemies and boost his strength through well-timed combos, adding speed and confusion to his arsenal.
Noel Vermillion
Noel excels in ranged combat, capable of firing missiles in various directions. Her special ability reduces skill cooldown times, and she can continue using skills even after her MP is depleted with Over-Exhaust.
Taokaka
Taokaka offers versatility in build options despite her weakness against armored foes. Her Spinny Spinny attack can apply multiple hits and status effects, making her adaptable to various playstyles.
Hakumen
As a tank, Hakumen is slow but durable, perfect for withstanding attacks. His counterattacks after blocking are cost-effective, and he can be equipped with a midair attack for versatility.
Lambda-11
Lambda-11 is proficient in both close and long-range combat, dealing continuous damage even when not directly attacking. Her versatility makes her a strong contender in any combat scenario.
Kokonoe
Kokonoe can be challenging to master due to her reliance on managing lasers and crowd control effects. With the right damage-over-time build, she becomes a formidable force.
Hibiki Kohaku
Hibiki excels at evasion and crowd control, making him excellent for managing groups of enemies. Though not the most powerful, his ability to avoid damage is a significant advantage.
Es
Es is versatile and powerful, capable of counterattacks after dodging, executing mid-air combos, and controlling crowds. She excels in multiple areas without any significant weaknesses.
Mai Nastume
Mai has a high skill ceiling, requiring mastery of her combos for maximum effect. Her mobility and damage output make her a challenging yet rewarding character to play.
Rachel Alucard
Rachel is incredibly powerful, with fast movements and the ability to reset her dodge moves. Her wide-ranging abilities, including a nearly unavoidable stun move, make her a top-tier choice.
Hazama
Hazama demands strategic play due to his complex move set. Mastering his skills leads to high rewards, making him one of the game's strongest characters once learned.
