If you want lore recaps on this, I suggest reacting to the Honkai Chronicles. Both Honkai Impact 3rd and Honkai Star Rail are directly connected to each other in canon. The Honkai Verse basically functions like a multiverse. Lots of characters in HSR are expys from Hi3, such as Seele, Bronya, Raiden Mei, and many others. The only character in HSR who canonically is from Hi3 is Welt Yang. There's also a chibi styled short video called Honkai in a nutshell that could also check out. The Herrschers are the gods and godlike entities of Hi3. Kiana switching her eye color is important lore wise. There is also a Hi3 manga series that is filled with a ton of lore and backstory for the game, and the Manga Alien Space is the one that canonically connects Hi3 to HSR. Part of the reason that Welt, the character who left from the Hi3 universe to go into HSR universe, left in the first place is because of Himeko's death in Hi3. He didn't want to see it happen again in HSR, so he left to protect HSR Himeko from meeting the same fate. Welt is the former Herrscher of Reason. The core was passed down to Hi3 Bronya after she passed numerous tests he set up for to be worthy of obtaining the authority of HoR. Fun fact: You can actually view the broken pieces of Himeko's sword in HSR. And you get special dialog if you interact with it using HSR Himeko. Also, Reburn 2 animated short was the very first concept reveal for HSR, hence the Astral Express and Welt being in the animation. W video! Can't wait for more Hi3 content!
Wow! Thanks so much for explaining, I didn't know there's that much lore to this which is amazing. It shows a lot of care the devs put into this. Also tyvm for the new suggestions, after these trailers I have to get more Hi3 on this channel. Much love ❤
@@tobellionhonkai chronicles is a must to watch for non player if they want to dive deep into the lore. And you will be surprised about how deep the meaning of the animation is when you get into the details, lore, and stuff coming from honkai chronicles. Just expect some information bombing on this lore explanation video. You might actually need time to connect everything in mind 😂
@@tobellionInterestingly, your translation of "herrscher" possibly meaning "authority" is actually pretty accurate too. Each Herrscher is said to have it's own "authority", which is whatever the rest of their name is. The Herrscher of the Void has an authority over space and dimensions. The Herrscher of Thunder has authority over lightning, electricity, etc And HI3 uses the actual English word "authority" for those. So good work!
@@tobellion Just a headsup that if you think you'll ever play the game it's better not to watch chronicles (except the first one) as they are recaps of character arcs. You will be spoiled. But if you think you'll never have the time for this game go right ahead.
Graduation trip was quite literally the finale and conclusion of kiana's journey. Its the end of her story. She absorbed all the honkai in this universe and became the Herrscher of finality, basically a honkai god, and the god of the world. But now her body has so much honkai radiation that people being just near her will die instantly from the radiation unless they themselves are Herrschers(so kiana's friends can still meet her). So she had to "seal" herself temporarily on the moon. Technically she isnt sealed as she can come back anytime she wants but that will cause mass destruction, so she has to wait around 10-15 years to fully control the honkai energy before she can return. Kiana is the first character mihoyo ever made. She is the main character of 4 different mihoyo games. The first game mihoyo ever created, flyme2themoon, had kiana as the MC, a girl with a jetpack who wanted to reach the moon. The second game they created was zombie gal kawai, with kiana as the MC, raiden mei and bronya as her classmates. The third game they created was houkai gakuen 2, with kiana as the MC and every single other part 1 honkai impact character in it. Both houkai gakuen 2 and honkai impact 3rd have the same characters and the starting of the story is also same but they go into wildly different routes. If honkai impact 3rd is the good ending then houkai gakuen 2 is the culmination of all the bad endings with severe depression and the universe got destroyed multiple times by kiana getting corrupted and becoming the Herrscher of the end. The CEO of mihoyo himself stated that kiana is like their own daughter and they love her the most. But kiana also has the most depressing and harsh story out of all the honkai or genshin or any other characters. She is by far the best written mihoyo character.
Wow thanks a lot for explaining! Very impressive to grasp the whole spectrum, it's crazy what effort went into all the stories in their respectable games but also inbetween the games. I just casually started HSR a few weeks ago and now I'm just hooked to the whole franchise of Hoyo xD.
@@tobellion Kiana is also by far the strongest character in all of hoyoverse if you don't count houkai gakuen 2 (seriously, houkai gakuen 2 characters are complete insanity. Kiana in houkai gakuen 2 is like a thousand times stronger than Kiana in honkai impact and she still isn't even in the top 20 strongest characters of houkai gakuen 2.) ..... So..... In part 1.5 of honkai impact after kiana's story ended, seele traveled to a different universe and met an alternative universe version of su(the gray haired guy who appeared in because of you, the one who was a doctor), a female version named vita, and in that universe another version of vita, the one who was controlling her, known as Sa, basically combined with a cocoon of the world which basically made her into a all powerful god, and guess what happened? Kiana, still on the moon, just pointed her finger as a finger gun at a certain direction and shot a beam of concentrated honkai energy and that energy hit Sa and instantly demolished her. SHE DID ALL THAT WHILE BEING IN A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT UNIVERSE. She just needed to point her finger at her and boom. That's how strong Kiana is.
I was so mad when on one of hoyofest (or something like that), organizers delete Kiana's cosplayer because "this character doesn't part of hoyoverse games". Dude she cosplayed HoV (for author, it's Will of Herrcher and Final Lesson one). It's such disrespectful and I hope hoyo will delete them or just put them on right place.
I swear I cry every time I see final lesson cinematic. I was shook when I saw her in Star rail. Let’s hope Star rail Himeko gets a happy ending instead 🥲 And the music just brings the scene together. Also fun fact is that the sword that broke in the cinematic is actually the very same one that is in hertas space ship behind a glass case. It’s cool to think about how herta possibly found the broken sword.
I love details like this! Thanks a lot for sharing. Can't imagine what it must've felt like seeing her again. I was already hit by her passing, so how is it for ppl that actually experienced it with all the story and such. Let's hope for the best in HSR :D
You weren't far off with Otto looking like Luocha. Welt and Void Archives, an entity using a clone body of Otto left the earth of Hi3. The official CN HSR page mentions how Welt and a blonde haired man were among the first guests of the Astral express.
@@tobellion well he is popular in all Hoyo, as the best antagonist of Hoyo, you can never accept all the lifes he killed and everything he did in 500 years to bring back Kallen, but you can understand why he lost control and why he did everything, as a normal human being if you were given his powers you could relate to him loosing all control after the love of your life is dead and trying to make amends but each years that passes the hole inside your heart grows bigger and then you become the biggest antagonist/clown of the world
Basic rule in hi3... if u see happy vibes... its cuz some really bad stuff happened and all that become depressing to us capitains 😂 The summer animation hits hard to me cuz i loved so much the characters 😢 they never had time to be happy like that
It really surprised me what all the Character had to go through and since I only watched the animated shorts yet I feel like there is way more hardship to come xD Still just an amazing Story and Character building ❤
@@tobellion you will not be disapointed, honkai impact 3rd has the best lore in all gacha games (ppl argue that fate/go is better but only 3 sagas of fate are good xd) honkai3rd its a character driven game, honkai starrail is the sequel to a post honkai odyssey (APHO) wich happens 8 years after the end of the main history (part1) Now the part 2 (last 2 shorts) takes place sometime close to the events of APHO but we dont know yet if is before or after, if you intend playing the game just by the lore itself you can progress without getting any character in the gacha, the game locks you with a certain character to clear the chapter and you will only deppend on your skills alone (fear not after some level u get good pretty quick)
@@joaocarlosii2188 so we have the cronological timeline, end of part 1 happens in December 2017 and after that the project to explore mars is started in 2020, after that the start of part 2 happens in latte 2023 and APHO happens around 2026-2027 and alien space happens in 2029
Fun fact is that the Star rail myriad Celestia trailer the Acheron one - Kyoden, is showing you 12 "Sentinels"/swords in it, which are directly connected to the Herrsher powers you have here. The first sword corelated with the powers to the first Herrsher (Bronya), and so on. You even see the twin sword representing Seele herrsher powers. Second sword "Void" is representing Herrsher of the Void Kiana powers and the Thirs sword "Howl" is representing Raiden Mei so Acheron Expy, Herrsher of Thunder powers. It was very hyped Myriad Celestia video for HI3 fans with all the connections
Hey fun fact for you as a Honkai: Star Rail player! Graduation Trip and the final arc of HI3 Part 1 (during version 6.4 of HI3 which was called Version Kiana) was released just before Star Rail launched! And in Graduation Trip uses the motif of "Canon in D" (which I'm told is a music used during graduations in the US?) and when you first start Star Rail, the music that Kafka is "playing" is also Canon in D! So, very fun connection with both games there with Star Rail being the next game in the Honkai series and a partial sequel to HI3.
@@tobellion Heh Hoyo tends to do that a lot! More instances I can remember off the top of my head include when they just straight up used HI3 OSTs in Star Rail, especially when connected to Acheron. Like when Welt and Acheron are talking in Penacony about the man on Welt's world who tried to put everyone into a dream and created a Spiritual Adam, the OST that plays there is an HI3 OST called "For Kevin" I think. And when we talk to Acheron after saving everyone from Ena's Dream, if you do the hidden ending where you keep talking to Acheron, the OST that plays there is called "Pendant" I think, which is also a HI3 OST! They also use some lines of dialogue that are from HI3, but are being said to Mei by Elysia (the pink haired elf lady) Another fun fact is that if you listen carefully in Acheron's myriad celestia "Kyoden" trailer, during the part where the she names the swords in rapid succession, you can hear the notes for Himeko's song "Nightglow" when you get to sword called "Flare". And if you listen to the myriad celestia in JP, the man's voice there is actually Kevin's VA! Presumably playing that version of Kevin (Kevin is the white haired guy in the "Reawakening" trailer and who Kiana, Mei, and Bronya are fighting in the "Part 1 Finale" trailer. He was the man that Welt was talking about and his version in Acheron's world is the man she said she ended the life of with her own hands.) (with Acheron's actual name being Raiden Bosenmori Mei, it's so heavily implied that Acheron's world is kind of like the HI3 world but a bad ending of it. Personally I think it's because there was no Kiana in that world.)
Acheron is an alternative universe version of Raiden Mei. And yeah the blonde guy is Otto apocalypse, luochas alternate version. Also that cube he used is in star rail it came with welt lol
@@ArcGenesisI don't care dweeb the semantics don't matter Also it's not even that cut and dry the words universe and world don't have any concrete meaning in this context especially because they're just approximations of the original Chinese words.
@@ArcGenesis actually since you want to be annoying and semantic thats not correct either. Do you want to define the difference between world, universe and multiverse in this context? Do you understand that all three are just attempts at translating the original chinese word? If I were to call her a different worlds version, that sounds like shes on a different planet. The word universe gets the point across. You can educate yourself on this subject if you want, the information is on this platform. 🤓 "erm actually its a world not multiverse"
If you're emotional, imagine us that play it since the first animation, the journey was amazing, a lot of cry during that. And about the HSR references, 90% of the characters that you said are based in HI3, except Welt, our HI3 Welt is the same as the in HSR, he left for the milk. The Reburn 2 trailer is actually a Teaser for HSR shown during the first Concert, was WILD the anouncment.
Thanks you so much, but there is still so much I could improve on! Next thing is going to be an upgrade to my Camera so you can the this weirdo more clearly!
She did sign herself as "HUA, Marshall" in one of the documents, so she's essentially Jingyuan and Feixiao's boss. And in the High Cloud Quintet companion quest Jingyuan said he's not sending Jingliu to the Ten Lords Commission, but rather to the Marshall. So we're getting Hua, Jingliu and Luocha in the same storyline sometimes in the future!
@@Justin-Thymehere's hoping that if Loucha is as evil as Otto that he is at least as well written as Otto. Because Otto was absolutely 100% grade A evil. But excellent writing at least made him evil that could be understood.
@@sylrune He won't be. Otto felt so great because he had years of writing behind him, and then, as bad as (imo) the Kolostein arc was, it succeeded in recontextualize him. Star Rail follows the Genshin way of only giving a character screen time when their banner is on. No matter how well a single patch is written, it just cannot hit the same without some time in the oven.
1:41:03 the girl in the dark cape? That is Raven, HI3s version of Natasha. She is a mercenary who works for World Serpent (the secret anti Honkai faction) and is an ally/colleague/antagonist of Mei's. She moonlights as a matron for a bunch of orphans.
@@tobellion She... does not. She is a low rarity character so she doesn't really get a lot of stuff focused on her. She's also free to farm so you can get her in-game just by patiently gathering the currency to buy her from the shop.
@@tobellionfunfact! in lament of the fallent when there is a scene flashback where mei is falling of the build and kiana held her is actually mei was going to suicide after she actually killing an entire city after becoming a herrscher. She wanted to suicide before she completely become the herrscher again. But instead kiana helping her after beating her.
The problem with Honkai Impact now is that there's less attention on it despite it still going to this day (also GGZ because that will never die...somehow), and also being the main reason why its contemporaries (Genshin, Star Rail, and ZZZ) have mainstream appeal. I mean, there are people who genuinely believe a 2016 game came before a 2018 game. There will be a time that when Honkai Impact ends and the company will put out how much the game meant to them to their current audience, which they would treat it with a shrug or downright dismissal.
I seriously hope the appreciation not just for the game in general but for the work and effort around it will be held in high regards shall it end one day. I'm a super small Channel and there is still so much love from people for this
"Less attention" I disagree. Just because the other Hoyo games are more popular doesn't mean that Hoyoverse is doing less for this game. They literally updated the game engine so that it can look and play as good as their latest games.
@@nicholasmogiba6361 And how many gave a shit? Only us who can played Honkai Impact. This is why they need to have English VO. They don’t need to do ALL the story at once, just for Part 2, and if successful enough, have Part 1 and 1.5 be done chapter by chapter over time. They can do all the QoL and UI overhauls they want, but if they need attention from the mainstream attention, they need to have this option in the game. You don’t see it as a pro and you will disagree with me, but that is the only thing that separates it from its contemporaries, and that is why it _needs_ it to be implemented eventually.
@@terrencenoran3233 Disagreed. Part 2 is a terrible jumping on point for new players since it requires way too much understanding of the universe that is explained in Part 1 to get into AND it spoils a lot of Part 1 to begin with. If they wanted to dub it, they should start with Part 1, but they won't. It's too much work for too little reward. They just aren't really promoting HI3 that much anyway. Look at the Hoyo launcher, it contains all of their games except one that is not supported. Guess which one! They're going to add HI3 to the launcher soon, they're actually actively working on it and have been testing it with their beta testers, but my point is that HI3 was the one that they left on the back burner while they added the 3 mainstream games from the start. Makes sense, but it also shows that they're not really confident in pushing HI3 so they pretty much gave up on it ever getting bigger than it is. Which is sad because a lot of the DNA of their other series is present there and I'm sure it would appeal to fans if they were exposed to it more, since a lot of people seem to think the game is over and is not even getting updates anymore. It's also the one game among their gachas that barely ever needs gacha interaction, the game can be played with free units you get at the start because starting with Ch. 4 they give away trial units that can clear the content.
I like the design and Character already so much and I have only seen the animated Shorts. I'm still lacking a lot lorewise so I'm excited to take deep dives into that haha
Hoyo tends to reuse certain previous characters in their games. Primarily, the ones reused are the cast of Hi3rd and GGZ (they share a lot of the same core characters) Acheron and Raiden Shogun/ Ei are expys of Raiden Mei who u see here. Bronya Rand from HSR is an expy of Bronya Zaychik who is here. HSR seele looks exactly like GGZ post timeskip seele etc And the HI3rd community goes wild every time, especially if its the main trio (Kiana, Mei Bronya)
I love that they do that, people are probably really attached. Feels like a Win-Win since Hoyo gets people to play all their games and the people get more stories with their Characters even if it's alternate versions. The last fact is wild - maybe I should dedicate a thumbnail to them xD
@@hiymecorp.258 Thats exactly what they do tho, they reuse the general designs of old characters and update em a lil for the new game as fanservice to all of us who played their old games. We can gloss it up, but in the end, they reused those designs and its not necessarily a bad thing. Dont fix what aint broke. And in the case of GGZ to HI3RD, they literally reused the sane characters
Ich liebe dich... a magic chant learned by a desperate child being tormented and experimented upon... her only wish was for a mother's love. Welcome to Depression Impact 3rd.
3 concerts have also been performed on Honkai. They're pretty good. The first one was a breakdown, the other 2 were already on top. There are them on the channel. There are mostly songs from animations and music from trailers. If you don't want to play, you can watch the Chronicles. In fact, they tell the story in English. Just find a normal playlist.
Not gonna lie, I may be uplaoding something reagarding one of their Concerts right now :D it takes a while because of the size tho! I thought about looking into the chronicles and guess this settles it then! Thanks for the info. Much love ❤
PV? You should do PVs. Pvs are like character trailers but with abit of others on the side. They showcase the chars and Show abit of the story going on at that verson. The first ones are like.. 6 yo.. So they old. But it gets alot better. Toga kawa made a great playlist bc the official playlist is very badly put together. And it showcase their atk animations.. Also.. Almost every char has a personal music for them.. And they are really good.
HoYo stuff really feels like it has that wild creative energy Hollywood had in the 80's-90's Also HI3rd is the game they experiment a lot. You will often see rough ideas in it as events that later get adopted in their later titles like Genshin HSR and ZZZ
wenn man diese story animations sieht, und das out of kontext, dann ist es ein "Wow - Moment" oder "awesome". aber wenn man es dann nach dem spielen des jeweiligen kapitels beziehungsweise des arcs sieht, dann versteht man nicht nur, was genau da abgeht, sondern man wird auch emotional. gerade bei final lession gibt es so viele spieler, die bei der animation in tränen ausgebrochen sind. um es kurz zu erklären: die weißhaarige heißt eigentlich kiana, wird aber vom herrscher des void kontrolliert, Kiana kann aber alles sehen, was der Herrscher des Void tut. Himeko ist Kianas Lehrerin an der St. Freya Highschool. und Kiana respektiert und erkennt Himeko an und sieht sie auch als teil der familie, weil Kiana ihre Eltern schon früh verloren hat. was bedeutet, Kiana sieht hier, wie Himeko sich für sie opfert und sie kann nichts dagegen tun.
Klingt echt hart, ich hätte das gerne damals miterlebt, da ich gute Stories echt schätze. Bin froh dass viele daran noch ide Erinnerung haben, zeigt ja auch was für ein "Impact" das Game für viele hatte. Danke für die Erklärung btw. Grüße geht raus
@@tobellion es ist nie zu spät, es zu erleben. die story rund um kiana und ihre freunde ist sehr schön geschrieben und sie ist sehr tiefgründig und lässt einen ums ein oder andere mal nachdenken. das drehbuch war sogar so gut geschrieben, dass die CN VA von Kiana, als sie kapitel 25 eingesprochen hat, tatsächlich von ihren emotionen übermannt wurde, dass die trauer im spiel nicht gespielt, sondern real ist. ich muss aber gestehen, die japanische synchro gefällt mir immer noch besser.
Hoyoverse are huge fans of all world cultures. They've got a love for their own Chinese culture, but are very eager to delve into European myths and names (for example one of the factions named Schicksal being "destiny" in German and Durandal being a legendary european sword), Japanese culture (in Raiden Mei being the epitome of a dark haired Japanese beauty, Yae Sakura in her miko incarnation and the nation of Inazuma from Genshin and more), and Russian influences (Bronya, Cocolia and Snezhniya). In Hoyo's ancillary Visual Novel Honkai works there's even research into African and Middle Eastern myths and cultures, which is touched upon to show both heroic figures and villanous types. Hoyo are not afraid of accusations of "cultural appropriation" that other developers may be - this can often draw the ire of some groups, but personally I do believe it is their love for all world cultures that drives them to add such aspects to their work, and the multicultural influences adds much to the games. Or to put it another way, they're fanboys of everyone and everything and will throw all sorts of foreign names in because they sound cool. Awesome!
Oh wow, is there any specifics? I mean I know that the Geo Dad was like 5k yo or something? It's been awhile haha - She looks good for her age regardless xD
Lore rant: HI3rd is the reason I wanted Hoyo to make an anime out of this rather than Genshin. Because out of all the stories they have, this one is the best story of them all. Also, as others have stated, the Hoyoverse is very complex. It functions like a multiverse, although everyone in the game refers to it as a Universe (According to accurate Chinese translation). It’s just one massive Universe separated by Imaginary Energy (One of the elements in Star Rail). Each World, such as HI3rd or ZZZ, can be assumed to be a part of the Hoyoverse, and the Universe is represented by a Golden Tree (One part of the tree is seen during the fight with Otto and those dark versions of himself, where he saves Kallen). That Golden Tree is the Imaginary Tree, which basically makes up the basis of all timelines and worlds in the Hoyoverse. Each World has their own version of said Tree. Genshin has the Irminsul, HI3rd has the Imaginary Tree, etc. It can be assumed all worlds have some type of Tree, even if it can’t be seen. It’s what connects every world to each other. The Astral Express is one method that allows people to bypass the Imaginary Barriers separating each World from one another, thus allowing interspace travel between worlds (There are countless worlds, and not all of them are connected, especially since there is currently only one known Astral Express remaining). If the Astral Express falls, it is presumed that communications between worlds will eventually cease, as the tracks that connect them will eventually disappear. There’s a ton more in-depth lore to the function of the Hoyoverse as well, though as of right now HI3rd and Star Rail explain the overall universe lore the best. HI3rd explains the Sea of Quanta in depth, and Star Rail explains a bit more detail on the Imaginary Tree, simply due to how the world traveling functions and the in-game text lore.
Damn! Thanks a lot for the explanation and effort here! It's amazing what they are starting to build here and it leaves a lot of room for any sort of outcomes and plot twist which I'm very excited for. An Anime would be absolutely Amazing seeing all these Characters in fully animated episodes would be neat as hell. Since we are talking about Hoyo here and they are doing a lot of crazy stuff already I think there's a good chance for something like this to happen, if they haven't publicly declined it anything. Thanks alot for your time again! Much love
HI3rd is one of my favorite games and easily my favorite mobile games, not for everyone though, its mostly mission based with gameplay inspired by DMC/Bayonetta although simplified. Story is great although it is long and slow paced at times often feeling like a Visual Novel, I love that but not everyone does. It has a relatively small cast of characters for a Gacha game where it will give many versions of the same character instead of many different characters, I like this because it shows character growth exceptionally well and I actually know most of the characters really well. After chp 6 the story also gives you story relevant trial characters so unlike most Gacha that I have played you do not have to use the Gacha and build meta characters to finish the story its only needed for end game content.
I like the points you make - The change of pace is something I would quite enjoy. I have played a few VNs before and lost track of time because they are so good. So this would add a nice touch to it. The only problem would be the time that needs to be invested xD
I think I will react to quite a few more videos from HI3rd and then I will indulge myself in the whole lore completely! Also I love learning from the comments, there is so much you guys know its crazy!
glad to see this reaction. i just want to tell u a bit the video "you and me" about why she (evil/red seele) forget her (good/original seele) in their arc something is happened and the existance of original seele is erased so obviously memory of good seele will also erased form her thats why she forget but she will remember again later (like in the video) ah also originally they share 1 body (2 soul/ego 1 body) but in this arc now they have their own body
Thanks a lot! I really like Seele as a Character so I'm always happy if they drop some animations on her, but these were kinda dark sometimes ngl xD. Glad to have you here, much love ❤
1:23:00 Actually it's hoyoverse tree with all their games as branches. That explains why characters can appear in few games as the same people or slightly changed, like Vill-V from honkai 3rd as Navia in genshin. In general all herrschers from honkai appear as archons in genshin. Almost all herrscherrs
Okay - I'm slowly learning about the Universe but it's pretty complicated in the beginning xD Thanks so much for explaning, it's fun to see the Characters "alternatives" in their respective games!
Hi3 animations MY BELOVED I still get so hyped and depressed and everything, despite it being years old... Goes to show you that they're just that good. GAHH!!! 😭🥰
I mean I'm used to the animations of the newer Gens too but this really hit hard, like I'm not the emotional type but damn xD These are really pieces of art
Some characters may look similar or share a name with other characters from Star Rail but they are not them. The only character who is actually the same person across both games is Welt.
HSR SPOILER WARNING: 01:25:42 i can confirm she is not in the coffin, to avoid bigger spoilers that would ruin the reveal, i won’t say what or who is inside of it.
Thing with the company name is, Hoyoverse is the global while miHoYo is still the Chinese name. Hoyoverse originally come from a fan made name, as every single Hoyo game, be it Genshin, Star Rail, ZZZ, GGZ, Tears of Themis, literally every Hoyo game placed in the same Universe, which is in fan theories mentioned as Hoyo-verse, while in lore called the Imaginary Tree what you can see in 1:23:06 Now you can enjoy every game in themself, but playing HI3rd (and GGZ, but that's not global anymore) is highly recommended as that game give you a more complex picture of the universe. Like, how/why Silverwolf also a Bronya, how Star Rail travel different worlds of the Imaginary Tree, how Genshin also just a world of the Imaginary Tree. And it give far more sense to scenes like when Welt and Acheron talked to each other. Like how different world has the same person, (Mei, Dr Mei, Raiden Ei, Acheron) and sometimes the same person but different gender (Kevin=Kiana, Trailblazer options etc) And finally, all the musics in all Hoyoverse games are made by Hoyo-Mix that's why every song is amazing.
Hey! Thanks for the time and explaining. To me it seems that, what Hoyo is building right now is completely unique in its kind. The Animations, Character, Stories and Music and so on is so well Balanced, everything seems harmonized. It's also very interesting to see the development of Hoyo even tho I do need to look into the older games before HI3rd. Much Love
@@tobellion Best time to start Honkai Impact 3rd to you, today Hoyo announced a Honkai Impact 3rd Honkai Star Rail collab event within 2 updates from now. You can check the previous such collab with Genshin few years ago to compair.
1:01:30 last one I SWEAR! 'Cooking with Valkyries' 2 season. 10 5min episodes each. VERY slice of life and only kinda depressing! Great to watch with a very catchy opening song! #pppppizzapizza
xD Comment as much as you like, I really enjoy all the Info that is getting put out here, since there is so much to catch up for me! "Only kinda depressing" got me laughing there, it's funny how having a depressed story is already a given with Honkai haha. Much love ❤
@@tobellion I would say watch the version trailers but there are 110 of them and there’s no fully accurate playlist (the one I made is pretty good but it’s from 2.0 upwards since I can’t find the original 1.0-2.0 trailers since they’re only in CN) I mean don’t get me wrong they’re amazing it’s just. A lot of videos. The concerts are probably a better thing to react to, they’re quite awesome.
@@elainasynranelt haha okay I get you. I will try to wrap my head around all of the stuff - If I miss something I'm pretty sure the comments will help out tho. And I love the fact they made whole concerts for their games. Absolutely awesome and will check them out!
@@tobellion it’s normal, so it’s okay, just watching the animated shorts, you don’t have a lot of context, like "reburn" is the first animated short, they did for Honkai and it’s not canon so the first real animated short is "Will of the Herrscher" that animation only came on chapter 8 so basically you don’t have the context of 8 chapters that if we estimate, it’s almost like 6 or 7 hours of game lore lol, if you had known that Kiana was the protagonist that would be very strange lol 😂😂
Obligatory: FREE GAME BTW lmao it never gets old. Edit: Final lesson, because of you and thus spoke apocalypse are imo absolute cinema, specially with context.
@@tobellionand it’s cool because some things that aren’t completely explained in game like specific backstories are explained in the manga! My favorite mangas of hi3 is Otto’s manga because he’s actually really old but doesn’t age and it sort of explains why he does some things that he does. His character is extremely well written! It’s a character I both hate and understand. And my other favorite is seele and bronya’s manga! It’s so so good but also so sad lol😫
As far as language goes, both dubs are good. But I personally prefer the japanese dubs. I feel those performances convey more emotion to a western audience.
@@tobellion many of them are quite good from both, but the two I find to be truly powerful performances are the Japanese versions of "Lament of the Fallen" and "Seele."
Two other HI3 videos that were not in the playlist, but that you might also want to see, are: "Azure Waters: Bronya & Seele's Story" - An animated summary of the Azure Waters manga "Winter Memories: Honkai Impact 3rd Concept Animation" Both are short at about 2 minutes each, but quite good. They can be found on the normal Honkai Impact 3rd youtube channel under the above names.
I'll tell you a little bit basic knowledgeof hi3 verse. 1.) Basically, honkai is a force of nature that act like antuviruses of the earth. It can create plagues, disaster, honkai beast, monster, and "Herrschers". And if humans did something bad to the earth (if im not wrong) the honkai will come to wipe them out. in the hi3 verse humanity has already fight honkai even from 50.000 years ago and still cannot win against the honkai. And if humanity defeats, the honkai will restart the era again until it loop like a samsara until humanity wins against the honkai. 2.) Honkai forms progress further as humanity civilizations too. Just like in the animation shorts, honkai looks like a robot because human civilizations already modern enough so they adapt a new form to it. but, in past time honkai looks more primitive just like the human civilization does before the futuristic era. 3.) Herrscher is just like an archon or an aeon but still have diffrences. It has cores. Its power depends on what it have on its name like: -kiana: "Herrscher of void" -mei: "Herrscher of Thunder" -bronya: "Herrscher of Reason" (power to create technologies i think) And herrscher can have two personalities like the human side and the honkai side both can basically take the body if they're powerful enough to control it and if they're willing to do it. That's it for the explanation i can give though. (Sorry for my messed up explanation bcus english is not my native language and im still learning it)
Wow thanks so much, it helps me out a ton since I'm lacking on the basics a lot! I really like the concept they are going with. The World they build is already really big and there is still a lot Character, Stories etc. I'm missing so I hope to see more of them when I watch the PVs and all. Much Love again for your time and effort! Good job on the english btw, you text was an fluent and easy read!
@@tobellion Glad If that actually Helps! And for the next react. I recommend you to react to honkai chronicles playlist first before the PV playlist as pv playlist is just about a bunch of random stuff coming to hi3. And dont trust the official playlist because its not in order. So, i suggest to find a fanmade playlist that are in order. Sorry i cant send the link here because yt regulations.
@@akmalmaula3880 sorry I just wanted to correct you in some little things, humans don’t need to do something bad to the planet earth, because the Honkai is there from the beginning of time, it’s more complicated, the Honkai in reality is a test created by the Imaginary Tree that all the worlds need to pass, if not they will be wiped out (Genshin and HSR have the Honkai Energy too, but we don’t know about it yet, it could be that the Genshin world found out a way to avoid the test, just like the Sugars and the Sky People did in HI3) The samsara is created by the Cocoon of Finality, because the Cocoon wants to embrace Humanity, but it’s power is imense just like the Cocoon did to the Venus Civilization, it can destroy worlds, because the Cocoon passed the test of the Imaginary Tree, so it’s not restricted by the rules of the Imaginary Tree Finally the power of Bronya is to create anything from thin air if she understands the conception of it
@@flaxx2551 i know, my definition of honkai is kinda outdated .And further in the story they explain a lot about what is project stigma, and the goals of honkai and the purpose of honkai. From that point we know that the definition of honkai is literally changed. But, its too hard for a non player to understand those. So i just explain the older version of the definition of honkai so that he will understand it easily. Thanks for correcting me as im literally not knowledgeable enough with the game ofcourse
@@akmalmaula3880 yeah ans it’s okay, I went a little too far with my correction, I just wanted to say that people don’t need to do anything wrong to the planet earth, but yeah lol, I don’t know why I went too far 😂 but your explanation was very good if not for little things like the Herrscher of Reason powers
Depends, for example, general consensus is that JP is better for lament of the fallen, but CN is better for shattered samsara. I personally like thus spoke apocalypse a lot more in CN.
@@notyou9061yep it depends on the animation, the VA performance in lament is def the best in JP, and shattered samsara in CN, rest I’m kinda indefferent about.
Yeah, I was debating if I should try the jp Version, maybe in the future I will change in up a bit, so I can see what works best and what you guys enjoy the most!
Would say this the Japenese dubs have almost twice as much, if not more, of emotions in their voice acting as compared to Chinese ones. No hate to CN VAs but JP seemed to be slightly better.
I think they are both stunning - I did watch all the jp ones too and will upload that one soon. I would really like to know what Japanese and Chinese think of the respected counterpart! Since I'm german and never really liked any german dubs I'm very curious haha
@@tobellion Just like you I would also love to know how JP and CN feel about these but as far as I know for most of the world, most of them prefer JP. I hope someone would answer your query cause I would love to know as well hahah.
Oh wow that's interesting. I always like it if they bring something like that to the table so you can Identify with the Characters more. Back in the day the trailers for Games like Overwatch and TF2 were really fun to watch because of that!
use list of Charles Guba next time. lincs get obliterated by yt, so aint sending it. but Charles Guba has a list, the one with 150(literally) video compiling the animations, lore, and some theories in a chronological order for others to use edit: my other self(acc) is here, they are the Charles Guba that im talking about. their list will surly help. and dont forget to read the titles of the lists, cuz those titles are very specified for anything they have compiled
Ah, yes! Back to watching HI3rd reactions! Haven't seen one for quite some time! They are still the best in the market! They literally made music to go well with what is happening in the animations! I hope I'll get to see a reaction for Punishing Gray Raven too! A bit older graphics, but gameplay wise, still the best! There are quite a few characters to react to! A few animations too!
I was absolutely stunned by these Animations, also the musical settings in a lot of these are nothing short of amazing. I'm already very excited for PGR and am recording all the stuff you guys recommended right this moment. And I can answer some comments in the downtime :P I will schedule the uploads over the next few days. Thanks for the support ❤
10:23 Reburn was a concept trailer. So no subtitles or Japanese dub and not canon to the story. The song is also called Reburn and is worth checking out! Hoyo mix doesn't miss when it comes to music!
Ah alright, the music they put out is not from this world ... Hoyo-Mix is in a league on its own seriously and when they start teaming up with other amazing vocalists it gets even better, I'm listening to their playlist rn while answering comments xD
Nice video reaction !! It's always heartwarming to see new people show some interest to the game ❤ I'm half way through it but I wanted to ask if you planned on reacting to the japanese versions ? (Sorry maybe you talk about that at the end) I just find that chinese voice actors are.. less expressive than the japanese ones. Idk but I felt less emotions watching the chinese ones (especially for the Lament of the Fallen).
Yeah I didnt really talk about it in the Video but a few people also told me in the comments that they are really worth watching so I did :D Maybe I can get it out today still. But since I plan to watch the PVs and all I will probably spending my day editing and uploading that monster xD
Beside Himeko, Owl, Ana Schariac, Otto and Kevin, in the game story no other character died or am I forgetting someone ? (only in game !! not Manga included, because there are some HI3 mangas where they just go on a killing spree)
43:42 'ripped at the back...' this is Kiana's anti-schicksal jacket. Presumably, she defaced the Valkyrie wings after the events of Final Lesson. Great reaction btw! Subbed!
Sometimes I feel like a rapper if I try to say all the names correctly :D The otto one was one of my favorites tho, while editing I sadly saw my mistake too ...
yeah the PV one, the official has 67 videos in total but i recommend this playlist (has 93 videos) i check it out, this is a good playlist (he/she really put effor into this xD) also u can watch in order from top to bottom normally ruclips.net/video/hjpq-UV2KPE/видео.html
If you don't plan on playing the game maybe you can watch 'Honkai Chronicles' to understand the story ruclips.net/p/PLLX1bpH-W3ZAdM88euubHIybbPWDQCQcf&si=-pIRtoDzYPCJ4jLX
@@OBL-PMT fun fact Luocha could be an Expy of Otto, because when Otto went to see Fu Hua after Kallen’s death, he hide his true identity and called himself Luocha or like you said it could be Void Archives
Heyho! I really enjoyed the JP voices in the new Upload Cooking with Valkyries and a lot of ppl recommended me watching the JP VA Animation so I will get a Video out today with all the JP ones
@@tobellion no, I mean animated shorts itself. Chapter XI CG (no name for short itself, it's really short one) Chapter XV CG (or you can find it as on RUclips as Kevin vs Durandal)
@@tobellion plus Part 1.5 trailer. And about Japanese, it's on you. I prefer Japanese almost everywhere except Shattered Samsara (love CN Senti's angry girl voice). And Lament of the fallen JP Men's voice actor just bring all feels with her single emotional line.
@@tobellion and as was said by other comments. If you want know lore or story. There official Honkai Chronicles from Mihoyo with English dub ("The Bronya Simp" user's playlist).
You see her a LOT in the second half of part 1.5. In part 1 she 'appears' in ALL the trio's (Kiana, Mei, and Bronya's) story arcs and then has one of her own. She is also in several of the game associated manga and has an incomplete and untranslated Visual Novel.
![FILMMAKER REACTS: METAL GEAR RISING: REVENGEANCE | [ALL CUTSCENES!!]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/8oDjvm0wzv4/mqdefault.jpg)
If you want lore recaps on this, I suggest reacting to the Honkai Chronicles. Both Honkai Impact 3rd and Honkai Star Rail are directly connected to each other in canon. The Honkai Verse basically functions like a multiverse. Lots of characters in HSR are expys from Hi3, such as Seele, Bronya, Raiden Mei, and many others. The only character in HSR who canonically is from Hi3 is Welt Yang. There's also a chibi styled short video called Honkai in a nutshell that could also check out.
The Herrschers are the gods and godlike entities of Hi3. Kiana switching her eye color is important lore wise. There is also a Hi3 manga series that is filled with a ton of lore and backstory for the game, and the Manga Alien Space is the one that canonically connects Hi3 to HSR. Part of the reason that Welt, the character who left from the Hi3 universe to go into HSR universe, left in the first place is because of Himeko's death in Hi3. He didn't want to see it happen again in HSR, so he left to protect HSR Himeko from meeting the same fate. Welt is the former Herrscher of Reason. The core was passed down to Hi3 Bronya after she passed numerous tests he set up for to be worthy of obtaining the authority of HoR.
Fun fact: You can actually view the broken pieces of Himeko's sword in HSR. And you get special dialog if you interact with it using HSR Himeko. Also, Reburn 2 animated short was the very first concept reveal for HSR, hence the Astral Express and Welt being in the animation.
W video! Can't wait for more Hi3 content!
Wow! Thanks so much for explaining, I didn't know there's that much lore to this which is amazing. It shows a lot of care the devs put into this. Also tyvm for the new suggestions, after these trailers I have to get more Hi3 on this channel. Much love ❤
@@tobellionNp! Take care!
@@tobellionhonkai chronicles is a must to watch for non player if they want to dive deep into the lore. And you will be surprised about how deep the meaning of the animation is when you get into the details, lore, and stuff coming from honkai chronicles. Just expect some information bombing on this lore explanation video. You might actually need time to connect everything in mind 😂
@@tobellionInterestingly, your translation of "herrscher" possibly meaning "authority" is actually pretty accurate too. Each Herrscher is said to have it's own "authority", which is whatever the rest of their name is.
The Herrscher of the Void has an authority over space and dimensions. The Herrscher of Thunder has authority over lightning, electricity, etc
And HI3 uses the actual English word "authority" for those. So good work!
@@tobellion Just a headsup that if you think you'll ever play the game it's better not to watch chronicles (except the first one) as they are recaps of character arcs. You will be spoiled.
But if you think you'll never have the time for this game go right ahead.
No matter how many times I watch the HI3rd cutscenes, it's always the same feeling in the end.
I was suprised by how much these trailers moved me even tho I didnt even play the game. Great work by Hoyo
yeah bro i feel that too
its depression impact for a reason
Graduation trip was quite literally the finale and conclusion of kiana's journey. Its the end of her story. She absorbed all the honkai in this universe and became the Herrscher of finality, basically a honkai god, and the god of the world. But now her body has so much honkai radiation that people being just near her will die instantly from the radiation unless they themselves are Herrschers(so kiana's friends can still meet her). So she had to "seal" herself temporarily on the moon. Technically she isnt sealed as she can come back anytime she wants but that will cause mass destruction, so she has to wait around 10-15 years to fully control the honkai energy before she can return.
Kiana is the first character mihoyo ever made. She is the main character of 4 different mihoyo games.
The first game mihoyo ever created, flyme2themoon, had kiana as the MC, a girl with a jetpack who wanted to reach the moon. The second game they created was zombie gal kawai, with kiana as the MC, raiden mei and bronya as her classmates. The third game they created was houkai gakuen 2, with kiana as the MC and every single other part 1 honkai impact character in it. Both houkai gakuen 2 and honkai impact 3rd have the same characters and the starting of the story is also same but they go into wildly different routes. If honkai impact 3rd is the good ending then houkai gakuen 2 is the culmination of all the bad endings with severe depression and the universe got destroyed multiple times by kiana getting corrupted and becoming the Herrscher of the end.
The CEO of mihoyo himself stated that kiana is like their own daughter and they love her the most. But kiana also has the most depressing and harsh story out of all the honkai or genshin or any other characters. She is by far the best written mihoyo character.
Wow thanks a lot for explaining! Very impressive to grasp the whole spectrum, it's crazy what effort went into all the stories in their respectable games but also inbetween the games. I just casually started HSR a few weeks ago and now I'm just hooked to the whole franchise of Hoyo xD.
@@tobellion Kiana is also by far the strongest character in all of hoyoverse if you don't count houkai gakuen 2 (seriously, houkai gakuen 2 characters are complete insanity. Kiana in houkai gakuen 2 is like a thousand times stronger than Kiana in honkai impact and she still isn't even in the top 20 strongest characters of houkai gakuen 2.) .....
So..... In part 1.5 of honkai impact after kiana's story ended, seele traveled to a different universe and met an alternative universe version of su(the gray haired guy who appeared in because of you, the one who was a doctor), a female version named vita, and in that universe another version of vita, the one who was controlling her, known as Sa, basically combined with a cocoon of the world which basically made her into a all powerful god, and guess what happened?
Kiana, still on the moon, just pointed her finger as a finger gun at a certain direction and shot a beam of concentrated honkai energy and that energy hit Sa and instantly demolished her. SHE DID ALL THAT WHILE BEING IN A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT UNIVERSE. She just needed to point her finger at her and boom. That's how strong Kiana is.
@@Mayank_MJ damn the goosebumps while reading that xD Kiana is insane - would love to see so much more of her!
I was so mad when on one of hoyofest (or something like that), organizers delete Kiana's cosplayer because "this character doesn't part of hoyoverse games". Dude she cosplayed HoV (for author, it's Will of Herrcher and Final Lesson one). It's such disrespectful and I hope hoyo will delete them or just put them on right place.
@@tobellion naja, wenn du HI3rd spielst, dann wird sie für 35 Kapitel der Hauptcharackter sein. Zusammen mit ihren Freundinnen Bronya und Mei.
I swear I cry every time I see final lesson cinematic.
I was shook when I saw her in Star rail.
Let’s hope Star rail Himeko gets a happy ending instead 🥲
And the music just brings the scene together.
Also fun fact is that the sword that broke in the cinematic is actually the very same one that is in hertas space ship behind a glass case.
It’s cool to think about how herta possibly found the broken sword.
I love details like this! Thanks a lot for sharing.
Can't imagine what it must've felt like seeing her again. I was already hit by her passing, so how is it for ppl that actually experienced it with all the story and such. Let's hope for the best in HSR :D
You weren't far off with Otto looking like Luocha. Welt and Void Archives, an entity using a clone body of Otto left the earth of Hi3. The official CN HSR page mentions how Welt and a blonde haired man were among the first guests of the Astral express.
Phew, I always feel like messing this up. I don't know if Otto is popular in HI3rd but I really like him!
@@tobellion well he is popular in all Hoyo, as the best antagonist of Hoyo, you can never accept all the lifes he killed and everything he did in 500 years to bring back Kallen, but you can understand why he lost control and why he did everything, as a normal human being if you were given his powers you could relate to him loosing all control after the love of your life is dead and trying to make amends but each years that passes the hole inside your heart grows bigger and then you become the biggest antagonist/clown of the world
Basic rule in hi3... if u see happy vibes... its cuz some really bad stuff happened and all that become depressing to us capitains 😂
The summer animation hits hard to me cuz i loved so much the characters 😢 they never had time to be happy like that
It really surprised me what all the Character had to go through and since I only watched the animated shorts yet I feel like there is way more hardship to come xD Still just an amazing Story and Character building ❤
@@tobellion you will not be disapointed, honkai impact 3rd has the best lore in all gacha games (ppl argue that fate/go is better but only 3 sagas of fate are good xd) honkai3rd its a character driven game, honkai starrail is the sequel to a post honkai odyssey (APHO) wich happens 8 years after the end of the main history (part1)
Now the part 2 (last 2 shorts) takes place sometime close to the events of APHO but we dont know yet if is before or after, if you intend playing the game just by the lore itself you can progress without getting any character in the gacha, the game locks you with a certain character to clear the chapter and you will only deppend on your skills alone (fear not after some level u get good pretty quick)
@@joaocarlosii2188 so we have the cronological timeline, end of part 1 happens in December 2017 and after that the project to explore mars is started in 2020, after that the start of part 2 happens in latte 2023 and APHO happens around 2026-2027 and alien space happens in 2029
Fun fact is that the Star rail myriad Celestia trailer the Acheron one - Kyoden, is showing you 12 "Sentinels"/swords in it, which are directly connected to the Herrsher powers you have here. The first sword corelated with the powers to the first Herrsher (Bronya), and so on. You even see the twin sword representing Seele herrsher powers. Second sword "Void" is representing Herrsher of the Void Kiana powers and the Thirs sword "Howl" is representing Raiden Mei so Acheron Expy, Herrsher of Thunder powers. It was very hyped Myriad Celestia video for HI3 fans with all the connections
Damn, that's sick - I wish I could have appreciated in that way
Acheron holding the Howl sword in that trailer is a small detail others may have missed.
Hey fun fact for you as a Honkai: Star Rail player! Graduation Trip and the final arc of HI3 Part 1 (during version 6.4 of HI3 which was called Version Kiana) was released just before Star Rail launched! And in Graduation Trip uses the motif of "Canon in D" (which I'm told is a music used during graduations in the US?) and when you first start Star Rail, the music that Kafka is "playing" is also Canon in D! So, very fun connection with both games there with Star Rail being the next game in the Honkai series and a partial sequel to HI3.
Heyo! This is sick!
"How much detail and thought do you want to bring into your Games and their universe?"
Hoyo: "Yes"
@@tobellion Heh Hoyo tends to do that a lot! More instances I can remember off the top of my head include when they just straight up used HI3 OSTs in Star Rail, especially when connected to Acheron. Like when Welt and Acheron are talking in Penacony about the man on Welt's world who tried to put everyone into a dream and created a Spiritual Adam, the OST that plays there is an HI3 OST called "For Kevin" I think. And when we talk to Acheron after saving everyone from Ena's Dream, if you do the hidden ending where you keep talking to Acheron, the OST that plays there is called "Pendant" I think, which is also a HI3 OST! They also use some lines of dialogue that are from HI3, but are being said to Mei by Elysia (the pink haired elf lady)
Another fun fact is that if you listen carefully in Acheron's myriad celestia "Kyoden" trailer, during the part where the she names the swords in rapid succession, you can hear the notes for Himeko's song "Nightglow" when you get to sword called "Flare". And if you listen to the myriad celestia in JP, the man's voice there is actually Kevin's VA! Presumably playing that version of Kevin (Kevin is the white haired guy in the "Reawakening" trailer and who Kiana, Mei, and Bronya are fighting in the "Part 1 Finale" trailer. He was the man that Welt was talking about and his version in Acheron's world is the man she said she ended the life of with her own hands.)
(with Acheron's actual name being Raiden Bosenmori Mei, it's so heavily implied that Acheron's world is kind of like the HI3 world but a bad ending of it. Personally I think it's because there was no Kiana in that world.)
Acheron is an alternative universe version of Raiden Mei. And yeah the blonde guy is Otto apocalypse, luochas alternate version. Also that cube he used is in star rail it came with welt lol
Alternate world. All Honkai games + Genshin take place in the same universe. It's not a multiverse.
@@ArcGenesisI don't care dweeb the semantics don't matter
Also it's not even that cut and dry the words universe and world don't have any concrete meaning in this context especially because they're just approximations of the original Chinese words.
@@ArcGenesis actually since you want to be annoying and semantic thats not correct either. Do you want to define the difference between world, universe and multiverse in this context? Do you understand that all three are just attempts at translating the original chinese word? If I were to call her a different worlds version, that sounds like shes on a different planet. The word universe gets the point across. You can educate yourself on this subject if you want, the information is on this platform.
🤓 "erm actually its a world not multiverse"
Okay so I got at least a little bit right, even if it is an alternate Version I feel like it helps me to understand them better! Thanks a lot
@@ArcGenesisit is a multiverse take the form of an universe
This shit too complicate, just keep it simple
If you're emotional, imagine us that play it since the first animation, the journey was amazing, a lot of cry during that.
And about the HSR references, 90% of the characters that you said are based in HI3, except Welt, our HI3 Welt is the same as the in HSR, he left for the milk. The Reburn 2 trailer is actually a Teaser for HSR shown during the first Concert, was WILD the anouncment.
Probably one of the best video qualities i've ever seen for a channel with just 400 hundred subs, you definitely deserves more
Thanks you so much, but there is still so much I could improve on! Next thing is going to be an upgrade to my Camera so you can the this weirdo more clearly!
1:53:36 'obasan' (translated here as Aunt) is an older unwed woman. Kiana often referred to Himeko as 'aunt' for this reason. 'Old maid' really.
Okay that seems like she is teasing her a little with that haha. Thanks for the Info ❤
By the way fu hua will definitely be in star rail she's probably the main ruler of the xianzhou
im interested with welt and fu hua interaction. Welt, as one of the person that has been touched by the feather, can Xianzhou's Fu Hua know Welt?
That would be sick! We still have seen so little of the Xianzhou I feel like since there it is like a huge "nation". Really excited for it ❤
She did sign herself as "HUA, Marshall" in one of the documents, so she's essentially Jingyuan and Feixiao's boss. And in the High Cloud Quintet companion quest Jingyuan said he's not sending Jingliu to the Ten Lords Commission, but rather to the Marshall. So we're getting Hua, Jingliu and Luocha in the same storyline sometimes in the future!
@@Justin-Thymehere's hoping that if Loucha is as evil as Otto that he is at least as well written as Otto.
Because Otto was absolutely 100% grade A evil. But excellent writing at least made him evil that could be understood.
@@sylrune He won't be. Otto felt so great because he had years of writing behind him, and then, as bad as (imo) the Kolostein arc was, it succeeded in recontextualize him. Star Rail follows the Genshin way of only giving a character screen time when their banner is on. No matter how well a single patch is written, it just cannot hit the same without some time in the oven.
1:41:03 the girl in the dark cape? That is Raven, HI3s version of Natasha. She is a mercenary who works for World Serpent (the secret anti Honkai faction) and is an ally/colleague/antagonist of Mei's. She moonlights as a matron for a bunch of orphans.
Okay, thanks a bunch for the Info I guess she appear more in other trailers right? Can't wait to watch more on this
@@tobellion She... does not. She is a low rarity character so she doesn't really get a lot of stuff focused on her. She's also free to farm so you can get her in-game just by patiently gathering the currency to buy her from the shop.
Btw lament of the fallen is best in Japanese, i recommend to rewacth it off-screen
Thanks for recommending, just did and it was amazing, the VA's are very talented
@@tobellion why no jp version idk if i miss the reason why or not
Yeah lol Mei VA did such a good job that it feels unfulfilling in CN
@@tobellionfunfact! in lament of the fallent when there is a scene flashback where mei is falling of the build and kiana held her is actually mei was going to suicide after she actually killing an entire city after becoming a herrscher. She wanted to suicide before she completely become the herrscher again. But instead kiana helping her after beating her.
The problem with Honkai Impact now is that there's less attention on it despite it still going to this day (also GGZ because that will never die...somehow), and also being the main reason why its contemporaries (Genshin, Star Rail, and ZZZ) have mainstream appeal. I mean, there are people who genuinely believe a 2016 game came before a 2018 game.
There will be a time that when Honkai Impact ends and the company will put out how much the game meant to them to their current audience, which they would treat it with a shrug or downright dismissal.
I seriously hope the appreciation not just for the game in general but for the work and effort around it will be held in high regards shall it end one day. I'm a super small Channel and there is still so much love from people for this
"Less attention" I disagree. Just because the other Hoyo games are more popular doesn't mean that Hoyoverse is doing less for this game. They literally updated the game engine so that it can look and play as good as their latest games.
@@nicholasmogiba6361 And how many gave a shit? Only us who can played Honkai Impact.
This is why they need to have English VO. They don’t need to do ALL the story at once, just for Part 2, and if successful enough, have Part 1 and 1.5 be done chapter by chapter over time. They can do all the QoL and UI overhauls they want, but if they need attention from the mainstream attention, they need to have this option in the game. You don’t see it as a pro and you will disagree with me, but that is the only thing that separates it from its contemporaries, and that is why it _needs_ it to be implemented eventually.
@@terrencenoran3233 I actually agree with you.
@@terrencenoran3233 Disagreed. Part 2 is a terrible jumping on point for new players since it requires way too much understanding of the universe that is explained in Part 1 to get into AND it spoils a lot of Part 1 to begin with.
If they wanted to dub it, they should start with Part 1, but they won't. It's too much work for too little reward. They just aren't really promoting HI3 that much anyway. Look at the Hoyo launcher, it contains all of their games except one that is not supported. Guess which one! They're going to add HI3 to the launcher soon, they're actually actively working on it and have been testing it with their beta testers, but my point is that HI3 was the one that they left on the back burner while they added the 3 mainstream games from the start.
Makes sense, but it also shows that they're not really confident in pushing HI3 so they pretty much gave up on it ever getting bigger than it is. Which is sad because a lot of the DNA of their other series is present there and I'm sure it would appeal to fans if they were exposed to it more, since a lot of people seem to think the game is over and is not even getting updates anymore. It's also the one game among their gachas that barely ever needs gacha interaction, the game can be played with free units you get at the start because starting with Ch. 4 they give away trial units that can clear the content.
1:37:12 Kiana,Bronya,Raiden mei vs Kevin fight only in the In game cutscene because so much Phase we fight with Kevin
Kiana is not only the best main character but also the best character hoyo ever made. She's also the creators favorite character.
I like the design and Character already so much and I have only seen the animated Shorts. I'm still lacking a lot lorewise so I'm excited to take deep dives into that haha
Hoyo tends to reuse certain previous characters in their games. Primarily, the ones reused are the cast of Hi3rd and GGZ (they share a lot of the same core characters)
Acheron and Raiden Shogun/ Ei are expys of Raiden Mei who u see here.
Bronya Rand from HSR is an expy of Bronya Zaychik who is here.
HSR seele looks exactly like GGZ post timeskip seele etc
And the HI3rd community goes wild every time, especially if its the main trio (Kiana, Mei Bronya)
I love that they do that, people are probably really attached. Feels like a Win-Win since Hoyo gets people to play all their games and the people get more stories with their Characters even if it's alternate versions.
The last fact is wild - maybe I should dedicate a thumbnail to them xD
“Reuse”
You say that like there isn’t a reason they do that and are just being lazy.
@@hiymecorp.258 Thats exactly what they do tho, they reuse the general designs of old characters and update em a lil for the new game as fanservice to all of us who played their old games.
We can gloss it up, but in the end, they reused those designs and its not necessarily a bad thing. Dont fix what aint broke.
And in the case of GGZ to HI3RD, they literally reused the sane characters
its been a year since graduation trip first came out and it still manages to make me cry like a baby
Damn I'm excited to watch more on this game today so I hopefully can get more Lore and see some gameplay too
Played this game for over 7 years and the animations still gets me every time
Ich liebe dich... a magic chant learned by a desperate child being tormented and experimented upon... her only wish was for a mother's love.
Welcome to Depression Impact 3rd.
Damn right in the feels again! And I feel like I just scraped the tip of the Iceberg haha
They said the game is heartwarming and uplifting
Well tell that to those captains who felt the pain
Haha yeah, the comments talk a lot about depression Impact 3rd and I feel like I get what they are talking about
3 concerts have also been performed on Honkai. They're pretty good. The first one was a breakdown, the other 2 were already on top. There are them on the channel. There are mostly songs from animations and music from trailers. If you don't want to play, you can watch the Chronicles. In fact, they tell the story in English. Just find a normal playlist.
Not gonna lie, I may be uplaoding something reagarding one of their Concerts right now :D it takes a while because of the size tho! I thought about looking into the chronicles and guess this settles it then! Thanks for the info. Much love ❤
You can found the himeko's sword that broken in herta space
PV?
You should do PVs.
Pvs are like character trailers but with abit of others on the side.
They showcase the chars and
Show abit of the story going on at that verson.
The first ones are like.. 6 yo.. So they old.
But it gets alot better.
Toga kawa made a great playlist bc the official playlist is very badly put together.
And it showcase their atk animations..
Also.. Almost every char has a personal music for them.. And they are really good.
The animations show like only a fiew of the characters..
There are soo many amazing characters that are not shown.
Yeah it's gonna be one of the next things on my bucket list - Im hyped for this and hanks for the explanation ❤
HoYo stuff really feels like it has that wild creative energy Hollywood had in the 80's-90's
Also HI3rd is the game they experiment a lot. You will often see rough ideas in it as events that later get adopted in their later titles like Genshin HSR and ZZZ
wenn man diese story animations sieht, und das out of kontext, dann ist es ein "Wow - Moment" oder "awesome". aber wenn man es dann nach dem spielen des jeweiligen kapitels beziehungsweise des arcs sieht, dann versteht man nicht nur, was genau da abgeht, sondern man wird auch emotional. gerade bei final lession gibt es so viele spieler, die bei der animation in tränen ausgebrochen sind. um es kurz zu erklären: die weißhaarige heißt eigentlich kiana, wird aber vom herrscher des void kontrolliert, Kiana kann aber alles sehen, was der Herrscher des Void tut. Himeko ist Kianas Lehrerin an der St. Freya Highschool. und Kiana respektiert und erkennt Himeko an und sieht sie auch als teil der familie, weil Kiana ihre Eltern schon früh verloren hat. was bedeutet, Kiana sieht hier, wie Himeko sich für sie opfert und sie kann nichts dagegen tun.
Klingt echt hart, ich hätte das gerne damals miterlebt, da ich gute Stories echt schätze. Bin froh dass viele daran noch ide Erinnerung haben, zeigt ja auch was für ein "Impact" das Game für viele hatte. Danke für die Erklärung btw. Grüße geht raus
@@tobellion es ist nie zu spät, es zu erleben. die story rund um kiana und ihre freunde ist sehr schön geschrieben und sie ist sehr tiefgründig und lässt einen ums ein oder andere mal nachdenken. das drehbuch war sogar so gut geschrieben, dass die CN VA von Kiana, als sie kapitel 25 eingesprochen hat, tatsächlich von ihren emotionen übermannt wurde, dass die trauer im spiel nicht gespielt, sondern real ist. ich muss aber gestehen, die japanische synchro gefällt mir immer noch besser.
"I feel like something bad gonna happen"
Something bad always happen xD
God dammit! xD Hoyo is already setting one in the mood of not trusting any happy vibes! Love all the stories tho ❤
Hoyoverse are huge fans of all world cultures. They've got a love for their own Chinese culture, but are very eager to delve into European myths and names (for example one of the factions named Schicksal being "destiny" in German and Durandal being a legendary european sword), Japanese culture (in Raiden Mei being the epitome of a dark haired Japanese beauty, Yae Sakura in her miko incarnation and the nation of Inazuma from Genshin and more), and Russian influences (Bronya, Cocolia and Snezhniya).
In Hoyo's ancillary Visual Novel Honkai works there's even research into African and Middle Eastern myths and cultures, which is touched upon to show both heroic figures and villanous types.
Hoyo are not afraid of accusations of "cultural appropriation" that other developers may be - this can often draw the ire of some groups, but personally I do believe it is their love for all world cultures that drives them to add such aspects to their work, and the multicultural influences adds much to the games. Or to put it another way, they're fanboys of everyone and everything and will throw all sorts of foreign names in because they sound cool. Awesome!
Fu hua is still my favorite character after all this time!
She is actually older than any of the seven in genshin impact. She’s a great character!
Oh wow, is there any specifics? I mean I know that the Geo Dad was like 5k yo or something? It's been awhile haha - She looks good for her age regardless xD
@tobellion Fu Hua was 50000 years old ....
@@tobellion 50k years old, Fu Hua is very old, but if you watch the Honkai Chroniques everything will be explained
random fact - the OST for shattered samsara is rubia and is sung by a guy
i like how he says i have no idea what going on and proceed to say come on core of reason 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I guess I went with the flow or something xD
A reaction to cooking with Valkyries and ELF Academy from HI3rd would be nice
I think this is a great Idea I liked the trailer already, it's on the todo list now :D
Lore rant:
HI3rd is the reason I wanted Hoyo to make an anime out of this rather than Genshin. Because out of all the stories they have, this one is the best story of them all.
Also, as others have stated, the Hoyoverse is very complex. It functions like a multiverse, although everyone in the game refers to it as a Universe (According to accurate Chinese translation). It’s just one massive Universe separated by Imaginary Energy (One of the elements in Star Rail).
Each World, such as HI3rd or ZZZ, can be assumed to be a part of the Hoyoverse, and the Universe is represented by a Golden Tree (One part of the tree is seen during the fight with Otto and those dark versions of himself, where he saves Kallen). That Golden Tree is the Imaginary Tree, which basically makes up the basis of all timelines and worlds in the Hoyoverse.
Each World has their own version of said Tree. Genshin has the Irminsul, HI3rd has the Imaginary Tree, etc. It can be assumed all worlds have some type of Tree, even if it can’t be seen.
It’s what connects every world to each other. The Astral Express is one method that allows people to bypass the Imaginary Barriers separating each World from one another, thus allowing interspace travel between worlds (There are countless worlds, and not all of them are connected, especially since there is currently only one known Astral Express remaining). If the Astral Express falls, it is presumed that communications between worlds will eventually cease, as the tracks that connect them will eventually disappear.
There’s a ton more in-depth lore to the function of the Hoyoverse as well, though as of right now HI3rd and Star Rail explain the overall universe lore the best.
HI3rd explains the Sea of Quanta in depth, and Star Rail explains a bit more detail on the Imaginary Tree, simply due to how the world traveling functions and the in-game text lore.
Damn! Thanks a lot for the explanation and effort here! It's amazing what they are starting to build here and it leaves a lot of room for any sort of outcomes and plot twist which I'm very excited for. An Anime would be absolutely Amazing seeing all these Characters in fully animated episodes would be neat as hell. Since we are talking about Hoyo here and they are doing a lot of crazy stuff already I think there's a good chance for something like this to happen, if they haven't publicly declined it anything.
Thanks alot for your time again! Much love
Fucking hell....
Even to this day... Final Lesson still kills me...
HI3rd is one of my favorite games and easily my favorite mobile games, not for everyone though, its mostly mission based with gameplay inspired by DMC/Bayonetta although simplified. Story is great although it is long and slow paced at times often feeling like a Visual Novel, I love that but not everyone does.
It has a relatively small cast of characters for a Gacha game where it will give many versions of the same character instead of many different characters, I like this because it shows character growth exceptionally well and I actually know most of the characters really well. After chp 6 the story also gives you story relevant trial characters so unlike most Gacha that I have played you do not have to use the Gacha and build meta characters to finish the story its only needed for end game content.
I like the points you make - The change of pace is something I would quite enjoy. I have played a few VNs before and lost track of time because they are so good. So this would add a nice touch to it. The only problem would be the time that needs to be invested xD
No hate to Chinese dub but i was used to listen to Japanese dub and when i see you didn't select Japanese dub,it kill me
Yeah, a lot of people recommended watching the JP versions, so I will make a separate Video containing all the jp ones, guess I missed out here
@@tobellion wow great news thanks bro! I'll stay tuned for it!
@@tobellionActually the Chinese dub is the original one
also Homu Labs has a great video about Welts backstory
I think I will react to quite a few more videos from HI3rd and then I will indulge myself in the whole lore completely! Also I love learning from the comments, there is so much you guys know its crazy!
@@tobellion HomuLabs is a great channel, he dont mind others reacting to his videos and want to get more people interested in HI3rd
glad to see this reaction. i just want to tell u a bit the video "you and me" about why she (evil/red seele) forget her (good/original seele) in their arc something is happened and the existance of original seele is erased so obviously memory of good seele will also erased form her thats why she forget but she will remember again later (like in the video)
ah also originally they share 1 body (2 soul/ego 1 body) but in this arc now they have their own body
Thanks a lot! I really like Seele as a Character so I'm always happy if they drop some animations on her, but these were kinda dark sometimes ngl xD.
Glad to have you here, much love ❤
1:23:00 Actually it's hoyoverse tree with all their games as branches. That explains why characters can appear in few games as the same people or slightly changed, like Vill-V from honkai 3rd as Navia in genshin.
In general all herrschers from honkai appear as archons in genshin. Almost all herrscherrs
Okay - I'm slowly learning about the Universe but it's pretty complicated in the beginning xD Thanks so much for explaning, it's fun to see the Characters "alternatives" in their respective games!
Hi3 animations MY BELOVED
I still get so hyped and depressed and everything, despite it being years old... Goes to show you that they're just that good. GAHH!!! 😭🥰
I mean I'm used to the animations of the newer Gens too but this really hit hard, like I'm not the emotional type but damn xD These are really pieces of art
1:37:57 CN-Dub is the Original
Perfectly! So I completely missed what I was trying to do xD
Some characters may look similar or share a name with other characters from Star Rail but they are not them. The only character who is actually the same person across both games is Welt.
HSR SPOILER WARNING:
01:25:42 i can confirm she is not in the coffin, to avoid bigger spoilers that would ruin the reveal, i won’t say what or who is inside of it.
Damn, I'm so hyped to know! I will love playing through the story!
Thing with the company name is, Hoyoverse is the global while miHoYo is still the Chinese name. Hoyoverse originally come from a fan made name, as every single Hoyo game, be it Genshin, Star Rail, ZZZ, GGZ, Tears of Themis, literally every Hoyo game placed in the same Universe, which is in fan theories mentioned as Hoyo-verse, while in lore called the Imaginary Tree what you can see in 1:23:06
Now you can enjoy every game in themself, but playing HI3rd (and GGZ, but that's not global anymore) is highly recommended as that game give you a more complex picture of the universe.
Like, how/why Silverwolf also a Bronya, how Star Rail travel different worlds of the Imaginary Tree, how Genshin also just a world of the Imaginary Tree.
And it give far more sense to scenes like when Welt and Acheron talked to each other.
Like how different world has the same person, (Mei, Dr Mei, Raiden Ei, Acheron) and sometimes the same person but different gender (Kevin=Kiana, Trailblazer options etc)
And finally, all the musics in all Hoyoverse games are made by Hoyo-Mix that's why every song is amazing.
Hey! Thanks for the time and explaining. To me it seems that, what Hoyo is building right now is completely unique in its kind. The Animations, Character, Stories and Music and so on is so well Balanced, everything seems harmonized. It's also very interesting to see the development of Hoyo even tho I do need to look into the older games before HI3rd.
Much Love
@@tobellion Best time to start Honkai Impact 3rd to you, today Hoyo announced a Honkai Impact 3rd Honkai Star Rail collab event within 2 updates from now.
You can check the previous such collab with Genshin few years ago to compair.
We hope that one day you check out the trailers for this wonderful game, it is practically an almost perfect game, especially in gameplay and story.
I though about recording Hi3rd today, I'm just not sure what to dive into first since people are recommending so much :D
Idk if this has been said but in HSR there’s an Easter egg in hertas collection if you play as Himeko.
I didnt know actually, hm but I dont have Himeko D:
Dont mind me, im just here to refill my depression impact
if you need a sort of video guide, here's my playlist with all the chronicles and concerts and more: /playlist?list=PLaVwDu6QGilQHfrHP1OxrxfB6KrxZpGEz
This really nice thank you a bunch ❤
32:52 Yeah... bcs Honkai impact 3rd is unlike genshin or star rail focus on quality instead of quantity.
Good take, I still enjoy all the animations but HI3rd has hit by far the hardest even tho I never played any of the story or anything
oh wow your pronunciation of Seele in Chinese is surprisingly good XD
Well that surprises me as well! xD And I can't guarantee any future pronunciations haha. Thanks a lot tho, much love
1:01:30 last one I SWEAR! 'Cooking with Valkyries' 2 season. 10 5min episodes each. VERY slice of life and only kinda depressing! Great to watch with a very catchy opening song! #pppppizzapizza
xD Comment as much as you like, I really enjoy all the Info that is getting put out here, since there is so much to catch up for me! "Only kinda depressing" got me laughing there, it's funny how having a depressed story is already a given with Honkai haha. Much love ❤
Welcome to the club of *Redacted* fellow captain.
The original chinese for what Herrschers are is something like Lawgiver or Lawkeeper.
So Emperor, Queen, that kind of title fits.
:333 we are so back
haha yeah, this was awesome! I really missed out all these years ... :D
@@tobellion I would say watch the version trailers but there are 110 of them and there’s no fully accurate playlist (the one I made is pretty good but it’s from 2.0 upwards since I can’t find the original 1.0-2.0 trailers since they’re only in CN)
I mean don’t get me wrong they’re amazing it’s just. A lot of videos. The concerts are probably a better thing to react to, they’re quite awesome.
@@elainasynranelt haha okay I get you. I will try to wrap my head around all of the stuff - If I miss something I'm pretty sure the comments will help out tho. And I love the fact they made whole concerts for their games. Absolutely awesome and will check them out!
I'd heavily suggest their concerts if you like the movie. They also have some cool lore segments in them.
Thanks a lot for suggesting! I'm watching them one by another and they are amazing!
the main character is the one you tought was the main antagonist Kiana Kalsana lol
Haha my confusion was real tho, thanks a bunch!
@@tobellion it’s normal, so it’s okay, just watching the animated shorts, you don’t have a lot of context, like "reburn" is the first animated short, they did for Honkai and it’s not canon so the first real animated short is "Will of the Herrscher" that animation only came on chapter 8 so basically you don’t have the context of 8 chapters that if we estimate, it’s almost like 6 or 7 hours of game lore lol, if you had known that Kiana was the protagonist that would be very strange lol 😂😂
11:17 'german' one of the anti-Honkai factions 'schicksal' was initially based out of Austria.
Oh that's interesting - Since we all somewhat talk this weird language it's sometimes a bit misleading. Thanks a lot for pointing it out! ❤
Obligatory: FREE GAME BTW
lmao it never gets old.
Edit: Final lesson, because of you and thus spoke apocalypse are imo absolute cinema, specially with context.
Absolutely agree!
to learn more about Characters like Welt, Otto/Voidarchives, Seele and Bronya you should read the offical Hi3rd manga.
I'm stunned that there is a Manga - I need to get to it asap haha :D
@@tobellionand it’s cool because some things that aren’t completely explained in game like specific backstories are explained in the manga! My favorite mangas of hi3 is Otto’s manga because he’s actually really old but doesn’t age and it sort of explains why he does some things that he does.
His character is extremely well written! It’s a character I both hate and understand.
And my other favorite is seele and bronya’s manga! It’s so so good but also so sad lol😫
I hope you also react to all of the character's move set and ultimate animations. So you can also see a bit of the gameplay aspect of HI3
This! I need to do that so bad. I will also watch the pvs and all today so I can get to see more stuff hehe
@@tobellion that's so cool
As far as language goes, both dubs are good. But I personally prefer the japanese dubs. I feel those performances convey more emotion to a western audience.
In this case I stuck with the original but I will upload a 2nd video with the JP voices since people says its really worth it
@@tobellion many of them are quite good from both, but the two I find to be truly powerful performances are the Japanese versions of "Lament of the Fallen" and "Seele."
Two other HI3 videos that were not in the playlist, but that you might also want to see, are:
"Azure Waters: Bronya & Seele's Story" - An animated summary of the Azure Waters manga
"Winter Memories: Honkai Impact 3rd Concept Animation"
Both are short at about 2 minutes each, but quite good. They can be found on the normal Honkai Impact 3rd youtube channel under the above names.
Cant wait for another honkai impact video From you ❤❤
Can't wait to watch more of it! I will keep it coming ❤
I'll tell you a little bit basic knowledgeof hi3 verse.
1.) Basically, honkai is a force of nature that act like antuviruses of the earth. It can create plagues, disaster, honkai beast, monster, and "Herrschers". And if humans did something bad to the earth (if im not wrong) the honkai will come to wipe them out. in the hi3 verse humanity has already fight honkai even from 50.000 years ago and still cannot win against the honkai. And if humanity defeats, the honkai will restart the era again until it loop like a samsara until humanity wins against the honkai.
2.) Honkai forms progress further as humanity civilizations too. Just like in the animation shorts, honkai looks like a robot because human civilizations already modern enough so they adapt a new form to it. but, in past time honkai looks more primitive just like the human civilization does before the futuristic era.
3.) Herrscher is just like an archon or an aeon but still have diffrences. It has cores. Its power depends on what it have on its name like:
-kiana: "Herrscher of void"
-mei: "Herrscher of Thunder"
-bronya: "Herrscher of Reason" (power to create technologies i think)
And herrscher can have two personalities like the human side and the honkai side both can basically take the body if they're powerful enough to control it and if they're willing to do it.
That's it for the explanation i can give though.
(Sorry for my messed up explanation bcus english is not my native language and im still learning it)
Wow thanks so much, it helps me out a ton since I'm lacking on the basics a lot! I really like the concept they are going with. The World they build is already really big and there is still a lot Character, Stories etc. I'm missing so I hope to see more of them when I watch the PVs and all. Much Love again for your time and effort! Good job on the english btw, you text was an fluent and easy read!
@@tobellion Glad If that actually Helps! And for the next react. I recommend you to react to honkai chronicles playlist first before the PV playlist as pv playlist is just about a bunch of random stuff coming to hi3. And dont trust the official playlist because its not in order. So, i suggest to find a fanmade playlist that are in order. Sorry i cant send the link here because yt regulations.
@@akmalmaula3880 sorry I just wanted to correct you in some little things, humans don’t need to do something bad to the planet earth, because the Honkai is there from the beginning of time, it’s more complicated, the Honkai in reality is a test created by the Imaginary Tree that all the worlds need to pass, if not they will be wiped out (Genshin and HSR have the Honkai Energy too, but we don’t know about it yet, it could be that the Genshin world found out a way to avoid the test, just like the Sugars and the Sky People did in HI3)
The samsara is created by the Cocoon of Finality, because the Cocoon wants to embrace Humanity, but it’s power is imense just like the Cocoon did to the Venus Civilization, it can destroy worlds, because the Cocoon passed the test of the Imaginary Tree, so it’s not restricted by the rules of the Imaginary Tree
Finally the power of Bronya is to create anything from thin air if she understands the conception of it
@@flaxx2551 i know, my definition of honkai is kinda outdated .And further in the story they explain a lot about what is project stigma, and the goals of honkai and the purpose of honkai. From that point we know that the definition of honkai is literally changed. But, its too hard for a non player to understand those. So i just explain the older version of the definition of honkai so that he will understand it easily. Thanks for correcting me as im literally not knowledgeable enough with the game ofcourse
@@akmalmaula3880 yeah ans it’s okay, I went a little too far with my correction, I just wanted to say that people don’t need to do anything wrong to the planet earth, but yeah lol, I don’t know why I went too far 😂 but your explanation was very good if not for little things like the Herrscher of Reason powers
For any future HI3 reactions you should try the JP dub, it tends to be a lot more immersive!
Depends, for example, general consensus is that JP is better for lament of the fallen, but CN is better for shattered samsara. I personally like thus spoke apocalypse a lot more in CN.
@@notyou9061yep it depends on the animation, the VA performance in lament is def the best in JP, and shattered samsara in CN, rest I’m kinda indefferent about.
Yeah, I was debating if I should try the jp Version, maybe in the future I will change in up a bit, so I can see what works best and what you guys enjoy the most!
@@tobellion I bring you utmost respect for trying out the original VO first
Would say this the Japenese dubs have almost twice as much, if not more, of emotions in their voice acting as compared to Chinese ones. No hate to CN VAs but JP seemed to be slightly better.
I think they are both stunning - I did watch all the jp ones too and will upload that one soon. I would really like to know what Japanese and Chinese think of the respected counterpart! Since I'm german and never really liked any german dubs I'm very curious haha
@@tobellion Just like you I would also love to know how JP and CN feel about these but as far as I know for most of the world, most of them prefer JP. I hope someone would answer your query cause I would love to know as well hahah.
There is no Fu Hua expy in Star Rail yet. People speculate on many things. Main one is top general of xianzhou but nothing is confirmed.
Yea I heard that too a few times now - I'm excited to see whats it gonna be
bro mixed up sushang with fu xuan ICANT
Maybe, but maybe it was just a really quick joke to confuse you all haha ... You would believe me right? *cough*
Kiana is supposed to be German (Mei Japanese, Bronya Russian, Seele Litauian or Estonian, Fu Hua Chinese, etc.).
Oh wow that's interesting. I always like it if they bring something like that to the table so you can Identify with the Characters more. Back in the day the trailers for Games like Overwatch and TF2 were really fun to watch because of that!
use list of Charles Guba next time.
lincs get obliterated by yt, so aint sending it.
but Charles Guba has a list, the one with 150(literally) video compiling the animations, lore, and some theories in a chronological order for others to use
edit:
my other self(acc) is here, they are the Charles Guba that im talking about. their list will surly help.
and dont forget to read the titles of the lists, cuz those titles are very specified for anything they have compiled

@@tobellion forgot to do this when u commented. But thank you❤️❤️
Ah, yes! Back to watching HI3rd reactions! Haven't seen one for quite some time! They are still the best in the market! They literally made music to go well with what is happening in the animations!
I hope I'll get to see a reaction for Punishing Gray Raven too! A bit older graphics, but gameplay wise, still the best! There are quite a few characters to react to! A few animations too!
I was absolutely stunned by these Animations, also the musical settings in a lot of these are nothing short of amazing.
I'm already very excited for PGR and am recording all the stuff you guys recommended right this moment. And I can answer some comments in the downtime :P
I will schedule the uploads over the next few days.
Thanks for the support ❤
@@tobellioni hope you react to all punishing gray raven music too. They are really good.
10:23 Reburn was a concept trailer. So no subtitles or Japanese dub and not canon to the story. The song is also called Reburn and is worth checking out! Hoyo mix doesn't miss when it comes to music!
Ah alright, the music they put out is not from this world ... Hoyo-Mix is in a league on its own seriously and when they start teaming up with other amazing vocalists it gets even better, I'm listening to their playlist rn while answering comments xD
Nice video reaction !! It's always heartwarming to see new people show some interest to the game ❤
I'm half way through it but I wanted to ask if you planned on reacting to the japanese versions ? (Sorry maybe you talk about that at the end)
I just find that chinese voice actors are.. less expressive than the japanese ones. Idk but I felt less emotions watching the chinese ones (especially for the Lament of the Fallen).
Yeah I didnt really talk about it in the Video but a few people also told me in the comments that they are really worth watching so I did :D Maybe I can get it out today still. But since I plan to watch the PVs and all I will probably spending my day editing and uploading that monster xD
@@tobellion Ohhh ok ! Tysm for your answer !! And yeah... Good luck with editing ! This takes wayyyy too much time haha x)
Beside Himeko, Owl, Ana Schariac, Otto and Kevin, in the game story no other character died or am I forgetting someone ? (only in game !! not Manga included, because there are some HI3 mangas where they just go on a killing spree)
It's the threat that counts.
43:42 'ripped at the back...' this is Kiana's anti-schicksal jacket. Presumably, she defaced the Valkyrie wings after the events of Final Lesson. Great reaction btw! Subbed!
Wow, I'm happy you picked up on that line because I was curious as hell. Thanks a lot for elaborating! Much love ❤
kiana is main
Amazing Character seriously, I'm hyped for watching more on this
You confused Sushang and Fu Xuan in Otto one :x
Sometimes I feel like a rapper if I try to say all the names correctly :D The otto one was one of my favorites tho, while editing I sadly saw my mistake too ...
animation done, maybe next the trailer version?
Heyo, seems like an awesome Idea! What Playlist excactly are talking about? Is it the PV one, I'm a little confused on HI3rd channel xD
yeah the PV one, the official has 67 videos in total but i recommend this playlist (has 93 videos) i check it out, this is a good playlist (he/she really put effor into this xD) also u can watch in order from top to bottom normally

Otto's animations here got me bad, very insane Character building in just a few minutes basically. I hope we get know more

Hope you did! If there's more you want to see, just tell me
I would like to see your reaction on JP Version, most the best Version in JP
A lot of people are recommending it - so maybe I'll throw in a little video with the jp versions, I will rewatch the trailers anyways xD
so sad he watched all of them in chinese instead of japanese :(
Heyho! I really enjoyed the JP voices in the new Upload Cooking with Valkyries and a lot of ppl recommended me watching the JP VA Animation so I will get a Video out today with all the JP ones
And here i thought that you would be reacting to the acclaimed hoyoverse game gun girlz
I will definitely throw you guys some curveballs in the future so who know what actually pops up ^^
you should react to the honkai series: cooking with valkyries, its based on one of the honkai mangas :D
There is mangas?! The trailer looked awesome so I will note this right down thanks for suggestion
@@tobellion yes theyre all on the official hi3 website if you want to read any of them :3
you should rewatch 'em with the japanese dub...the chinese ones doesn't feel the same lol
Short Video is coming up soon with the ones I didnt see in jp xD they were absolutely amazing
Another HI3rd cinematics reaction... Must resist... Not to watch... Must...
I activate my trap card! Well I guess it's 10 hours late but yeaah ... xD
Oh no! He skipped some of them. This is not complete playlist :((
If you mean the jp ones I will upload them separately! If there is anything else I missed please tell me! i need to watch
@@tobellion no, I mean animated shorts itself.
Chapter XI CG (no name for short itself, it's really short one)
Chapter XV CG (or you can find it as on RUclips as Kevin vs Durandal)
@@tobellion plus Part 1.5 trailer.
And about Japanese, it's on you. I prefer Japanese almost everywhere except Shattered Samsara (love CN Senti's angry girl voice). And Lament of the fallen JP Men's voice actor just bring all feels with her single emotional line.
@@tobellion and as was said by other comments. If you want know lore or story. There official Honkai Chronicles from Mihoyo with English dub ("The Bronya Simp" user's playlist).
Ok 1 part. thanks
Haha
58:56 'who was that...?' Fu Hua! #bestgirl
Hope we get to see her more!
You see her a LOT in the second half of part 1.5. In part 1 she 'appears' in ALL the trio's (Kiana, Mei, and Bronya's) story arcs and then has one of her own. She is also in several of the game associated manga and has an incomplete and untranslated Visual Novel.
i hope you will watch Honkai chronical
and Main character is Kiana
How can I not, I fell in love with the Honkai universe :D
Bruh why Chinese
So many people asked me that haha, I will upload all the JP dub versions too, I should probably get to it today
