    Next to the ATB cost stat, one can make out the string "Lightning" . Famitsuu speculates that this is in fact the protagonist's name.
    That would explain why there is lightning all around her, everthing she walks, runs and jumps on. It would also explain how she can slow down time. Well she doesnt, shes just damn fast. Let me guess, she draws energy from the crystals ^^
    I bet you that for the english version the name will be changed to another word for lightning (im not really thinking of thunder) or at least a word that has a connected meaning with lightning/thunder. Something like 'Storm" maybe.

    Of course we dont know yet if that REALLY is her name.

    FFXIII official soundtrack:
    Thunder and Lightning, very very frightening!

    From the looks of the battle system, you can chain attacks to get extra damage like in FFX-2.
    An example is when in the trailer 'V Strike' is selected and it says 'Attack one target and propell them into the air' it has 'Chain x(number)' written on the side. Of course, most of you would have probably already noticed that.

    Her sword mechanism is an interesting one. Its not just a butterfly knife type thing, because the blade is too long to be safely resting by the handle. The blade sort of slides forward from where it was resting before (where the hammer of a traditional gun would be) and into place when those two metal pieces flip backwards.
    When its a gun, the two metal pieces together form the barrel.
