"Wow, Shellhead, I didn't know you were into that." Oh, Nia. Why must you be so amazing. Also, KOS-MOS is still OP as hell, and Astelle is like a young Shion that was never traumatized. I mean, they even have the same hair and eye colour. This whole sequence was kind of nostalgic.
Now we need a brown-haired dude who loves Astelle but gets ignored, a mechanical dude, a red-head kid that carries guns around, a white-haired dude with a name starting with a lowercase letter, and an actual big brother skilled in swordplay. We can't name him Jin, though, for obvious reasons. Poppi already has the second robot girl part covered.
nostalgia circuits overblowing at KOS-MOS' appearance in this game. If they had brought back her original english voice actress, nostalgia circuits would've gone nuclear at her epicness.
I would like to think that Astelle is a small nod to Shion seeing how she gets along with KOS-MOS almost too well and the fact she's wearing glasses. But that's just me.
KOSSYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D Now I'm praying for an HD remaster of the Xenosaga trilogy. I really miss her, and that bittersweet ending to episode 3 makes me want a satisfying conclusion to her story.
it's just a theory in my head but in xeno universe when a character is in different universe they will be depicted as a child,as for example if you see nephilim and abel, they are like the child version of Fei and Elly from Xenogears, and now we got astelle which resemble shion but as a child. But it's just a theory, a game theory!!!
Hm, it seems like Kos-Mos' Body is like a Fusion reactor, where those bars are the control rods to keep the power in check. There is probably number rods of Light Ether (or an Element of some kind, emanating radiation). It makes since why she needs to lock herself down to stable ground because that is a lot of energy being released at once.
Just check RUclips videos shoeing the stuff she does in the Xenosaga series. KOS-MOS has one insane firepower hidden inside that beautiful figure of hers. No joke, she's insane!
i'm pretty happy that they brought in Kos-Mos from Xenosaga. makes me wonder what they would do if they brought T-elos over as well. would she be a rare blade too? a secret boss only unlock-able if you have Kos-mos with you?
I swear I'm probably gonna be the only guy here who will say it, but I think KOS-MOS's voice acting is absolutely amazing. She's literally a robot but her voice is just really beautiful even if it's devoid of most emotion.
While i dont think it's better than Bridget, it's still good. It's just that the original Japanese VA is unbeatable. It's like having a good meal, before having the best meal ever and going back to a good meal. I especially like the X-buster voice clip.
DemonEyeX that or all the Xeno games are somehow connected. How and through what means, I have no idea and I will leave it to the theorists to figure that out.
Divise two this is a bit more than just a reference. Manado (I don't know how to spell that sword's name) ear rings, I can see as a reference, an entire character that was a protagonist, not at all.
The RNG is so annoying that even with 10 Legendary cores all I get is a 3 star grunt... I still have 8 other Blades to unlock through core crystal and yet not one of them is lucky
Keep trying buddy. Took me 36 legendaries to get 1 rare blade. Just be patient. I know it's a pain but you'll get there. *I just need two more, and it's not fun.*
could lost jerusalem be the new earth, klaus lived on? that was attacked, which caused the stories of 1, x and 2? i mean, when he created a new world, maybe kos-mos became a blade, because of some shenanigans, with the cloud sea and core crystals, because she was floating in space and shit but hey, thats just a little theorizing i did, a xenogame theorizing, thanks for reading
Legendosaur V.A. assuming you're at the 7th perimeter skyport, head to towards the end of the walkway (or if you're looking at the map the Salvage Point farthest away from the world tree) it's just a bit past the maze like walls with the Indoline loyalists. You should see a quest icon but with triple ?'s, everything after that is pretty clear though
I tried that and nothing happen. That's kind of why I voiced my concerns to begin with. Maybe there's some other criteria I haven't met, like unlocking abilities for her or whatever. I'm pretty sure you have to do that with Praxis as well.
I think this Kos-Mos is not like the original from the Xenosaga, I think she is different version of her that is a modified Blade that has the same function as the one from the Xenosaga, plus that would also stop her from becoming a titan.
For the people who know they said her name wrong the people who directors for the VA’s didn’t do their jobs very well that’s why the voice acting in this game is wacky like rex’s actor knows how to scream he just didn’t get good voice direction
Thony's Profile a blade quest like this is usually tied to some skill in the blades affinity chart, and they do show the prerequisites for unlocking the skill. Look in her affinity chart and try to see which one leads to this event(a quest like this usually ties to a field skill, to give you a hint of where exactly to look)
Leo Kaizer According to people, you just get her randomly. She's a random drop, you can get her pretty early or pretty late, depending on whether or not luck is smiling upon you.
technically yes, in xenosaga she derives power from the zohar (the conduit as its called in XBC), the zohar is a direct link to the power of U-DO/The Wave Existence, which is where the Architect resides, so although she is not an Aegis in the truest sense, she has the same power as one (technically she is Kadomony in the way that Kadomony is the computer that takes the power of the zohar to operate deus aka the Zohar-Kadomony-Deus system)
TheRookies5 You can get her from any common, rare or legendary core Crystal. It's completely random. You can boost the odds of getting her by using Justice boosters. She is also not locked behind a chapter wall. You can get her very early if your lucky. She Originated from from the game called Xenosaga.
No. You can get her base game as in the blade album her icon is after Florens and before Heralds which are base game rare blades. After Dahlias icon in the album the rare blades are DLC exclusive.
It was nice seeing KOS-MOS in a new game, but not too please that it had to be this one. Not a big fan of the overall aesthetic and I definitely think the art style of the first game was vastly superior. Also, I'm not too crazy about her voice. Such a far cry from Bridget Hoffman. At least she's still voiced by Mariko Suzuki in the Japanese version. Caitlin Thorburn just leaves a lot to be desired, personally. I can appreciate the reference to Shion with Astelle, though. Also, what was up with the pronunciation of KOS-MOS?
I mean, she was just wearing her Version 4 design from the third game so I have no real problem with her there aside from my overall issues with that design. My favorite KOS-MOS design is Version 2 so that should give you an idea on my aesthetic preferences.
ah. yeah i get the idea. i'm personally alright with her ver.4 design but i understand your preference. and i do agree. the voice they give her here is not as good. But hey at least they didn’t give her a cleavage window that opens up whenever her limiter is turned off here. Seriously what was that about?
lol yeah I don't hate versions 1, 3, and 4, thanks to nostalgia, but after a while I found myself wonder why a battle android needs cleavage or a lace garter lol. And then there's her most powerful attack literally being an energy ball coming from her cleavage lol. Of course, it could've been a loooot worse.
LoL. yeah i swear the developers new exactly what they were doing. nobodies that naive. XD actually i remember this one scene from X zone 1 where Frank west takes her picture. the picture scores "perfect erotica." XD

After beating future redeemed I’m here to rewatch this since some Xenosaga lore at the end
KOS-MOS is still a badass.
MEvox guess she learned Baku’s yeet
And less creepy
"Wow, Shellhead, I didn't know you were into that." Oh, Nia. Why must you be so amazing.
Also, KOS-MOS is still OP as hell, and Astelle is like a young Shion that was never traumatized. I mean, they even have the same hair and eye colour. This whole sequence was kind of nostalgic.
Harkz0r that was probably the idea behind the quest
Shion = Japanese for "aster" genus
Astelle = based on "aster"
Now we need a brown-haired dude who loves Astelle but gets ignored, a mechanical dude, a red-head kid that carries guns around, a white-haired dude with a name starting with a lowercase letter, and an actual big brother skilled in swordplay. We can't name him Jin, though, for obvious reasons. Poppi already has the second robot girl part covered.
we just need an updated xenosaga..
Astelle...haha...you really did get to meet Kos-Mos again didn’t you...Shion
Nice! So you know huh?
The whole time i am like "oh that's shion ep.1 looks and brains"
As it should be, Xenosaga is proud of you KOS-MOS for representing your OP powers.
13:32 woops wrong sword for rex (mythra sword with pyra out)
Nice to see Kos-Mos being OP like she should be. :)
I'm guessing it's no coincidence that Astelle bears a striking resemblance to Shion Uzuki.
Sure StaunchKillah what's the next guest character?
nostalgia circuits overblowing at KOS-MOS' appearance in this game. If they had brought back her original english voice actress, nostalgia circuits would've gone nuclear at her epicness.
I still can't BELIEVE that KOS-MOS from Xenosaga is in this game!
I would like to think that Astelle is a small nod to Shion seeing how she gets along with KOS-MOS almost too well and the fact she's wearing glasses. But that's just me.
Oh yeah, especially when KOS-MOS guards her around 13:20. Reminded me of Xenosaga 3.
Also, Shion is a Japanese word for aster, which might explain the name Astelle.
CionSAGA They added glasses to a generic little girl model, so I think you are onto something.
CionSAGA ...does this mean Shion canonically has a flamboyant uncle? :P I kid, I kid.
I'm so glad to pull KOS-MOS early in the game! ♡♡
6:16 oh no... what have they done...
>Casual display of Aegis-like power
her X buster and hilbert effect can cover MUCH more than this
KOSSYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
Now I'm praying for an HD remaster of the Xenosaga trilogy. I really miss her, and that bittersweet ending to episode 3 makes me want a satisfying conclusion to her story.
CloakofAuron
Me too! I miss her so much!
Yes omg like why in the fuck would they discontinue such an amazing series (I know why) it hurts, I hate cliffhangers.
it's just a theory in my head but in xeno universe when a character is in different universe they will be depicted as a child,as for example if you see nephilim and abel, they are like the child version of Fei and Elly from Xenogears, and now we got astelle which resemble shion but as a child. But it's just a theory, a game theory!!!
3:45 haha i love poppi's hand doing dut-dut-dut thing
Kos-Mos is best gyniod.
Those long years.... seeing her comeback all of a sudden was a strike at the heart.
💔🗡
2:50 Final CROOOOOOSS
Astelle is reminding me a LOT of Shion Uzuki right now.
I thought I heard Xenosaga's battle theme right when Kos-Mos was talking to Astelle after she saved her.
Oh cool a side quest for Mar- I MEAN KOSMOS!
astelle is basically the chibi version of shion lol
I'm a huge KOS-MOS/Xenosaga fan but I just couldn't pull her in the game! Didn't have the patience to grind post game content for more summons.
Hm, it seems like Kos-Mos' Body is like a Fusion reactor, where those bars are the control rods to keep the power in check. There is probably number rods of Light Ether (or an Element of some kind, emanating radiation).

i'm pretty happy that they brought in Kos-Mos from Xenosaga. makes me wonder what they would do if they brought T-elos over as well. would she be a rare blade too? a secret boss only unlock-able if you have Kos-mos with you?
Austin Morrison well they are adding more rare blades in a dlc sooo....
Austin Morrison Have you noticed the Conduit and Aegis Core Crystals? They are the shape of the Zohar.
Craig DelliCarpini huh. Is that an Easter egg or foreshadowing?
Austin Morrison I actually believe that is straight up, a Zohar. So I don’t think it’s an Easter Egg.
Well uhhh... I kinda Got T-Elos before I got Kos mos
8:13 that's mythras sword but pyra is present... Am I missing something here?
Patrick Liao during regular gameplay it doesn't force a switch so the character there will be there but not the blade
Tony Power in story cut scenes it does force a switch
95 hours in, still don't have Kosmos ='(
I got her as soon as I got zeke. I was super lucky.
Ambassador Of Mercy i got her sooner
i just pulled her this morning at 200 hours!
I got her at 215 hours
200+ and still no kos-mos
XENOSAGA cameo kos mos and little shion uzuki :D
What do you mean ofensive? I dont mind you exposing your under frame KOS-MOS
I swear I'm probably gonna be the only guy here who will say it, but I think KOS-MOS's voice acting is absolutely amazing. She's literally a robot but her voice is just really beautiful even if it's devoid of most emotion.
Dreadfury
I think it fits her perfectly.
Dreadfury Yeah, it's not the originals, but I don't see the issue with her voice. I think she sounds fine.
its fucking disgusting
I still think Bridget Hoffman makes the best Kos-Mos voice.
While i dont think it's better than Bridget, it's still good.
It's just that the original Japanese VA is unbeatable.
It's like having a good meal, before having the best meal ever and going back to a good meal.
I especially like the X-buster voice clip.
Did anyone notice that Rex was using Mythra blade when he had Pyra out in the beginning?
So, Takahashi is building multiple universes with the Xeno series. He is intentionally referencing other games.
I'm guessing it was intended for astelle to look like shion :D
Had to see this, we all know Im not going to unlock her anyway
That godly music at 2:50
Over the Sinful Entreaty.
It also plays when Rex calls Amalthus out on his misdeeds in Chapter 8.
Something I will never get to see. :(
How did KOS-MOS become a blade and does she still has an attachment to her creator and old master?
She's a cameo blade because of Monolithsoft
Coramelimane manodo hair pins ,I can see as a reference. An entire character that was a protagonist, not as much. That's more than just a reference.
Andres Marrero Xenosaga remake?
DemonEyeX that or all the Xeno games are somehow connected. How and through what means, I have no idea and I will leave it to the theorists to figure that out.
Divise two this is a bit more than just a reference. Manado (I don't know how to spell that sword's name) ear rings, I can see as a reference, an entire character that was a protagonist, not at all.
i literaly got KOS MOS while watching this vid
The RNG is so annoying that even with 10 Legendary cores all I get is a 3 star grunt... I still have 8 other Blades to unlock through core crystal and yet not one of them is lucky
Keep trying buddy. Took me 36 legendaries to get 1 rare blade. Just be patient. I know it's a pain but you'll get there. *I just need two more, and it's not fun.*
could lost jerusalem be the new earth, klaus lived on? that was attacked, which caused the stories of 1, x and 2?
i mean, when he created a new world, maybe kos-mos became a blade, because of some shenanigans, with the cloud sea and core crystals, because she was floating in space and shit
but hey, thats just a little theorizing i did, a xenogame theorizing, thanks for reading
I READ !
So how old is Astelle supposed to be? It's said she was born some time after Zeke left the country but when is that?
I have KOS-MOS, but how do you even trigger this sidequest?
I know that much, I’ve already BEAT the game. I curbstomped Malos and everything. It just ain’t triggering this event.
Legendosaur V.A. assuming you're at the 7th perimeter skyport, head to towards the end of the walkway (or if you're looking at the map the Salvage Point farthest away from the world tree) it's just a bit past the maze like walls with the Indoline loyalists. You should see a quest icon but with triple ?'s, everything after that is pretty clear though
I tried that and nothing happen. That's kind of why I voiced my concerns to begin with. Maybe there's some other criteria I haven't met, like unlocking abilities for her or whatever. I'm pretty sure you have to do that with Praxis as well.
she has to be at level 4 affinity, has to be in the party and I did mine during the day so I don't think there has to be a specific time
i wonder if this kos-mos is canon or just another clone like in the banpresto series?
Well rumors says xenoblade is connected to the xenosaga series.
Primodori and soon Smash Ultimate :D
well, after appearing in narikiri dungeon series and some battle series I would not be surprise our sweet robot girl would be in smash.
How do you start this?
it tells you in her affinity chart
If Pyra was in the cutscenes, then why was Rex holding Mythra’s sword?
Im so frustrated i haven't got her
astelle really didn't wait to put the moves on kos-mos huh
I'm here because I've accepted the fact that I'll never get her.
whaaAATT!! she has pile bunkers in her fucking heels. thats awsome.
all the complaints lol just be happy for cameo
what is her purpose is t his a tease for a new XENOPHOBIA blade ?
I think this Kos-Mos is not like the original from the Xenosaga, I think she is different version of her that is a modified Blade that has the same function as the one from the Xenosaga, plus that would also stop her from becoming a titan.
Where do you find this quest??
i love how whenever KOS-MOS says "back up" no one moves at all
3:19 lol, pyra new idle animation
How do you activate this and when can you do it? I just got her and I wanna do it before I beat the game (unless you have to/can do it at end game?)
look in her affinity chart one of the circles will tell you
Dave Bruno You can do this quest after some point in chapter 9, to keep it vague.
What is harder? the quest or getting kos mos?
getting kos mos, quest is the easiest of the blade missions
Can you increase the hit combo here??
WUUUT XENOSAGA EASTER EGG???
She's the last blade I need, too bad there's no indicator of actually getting her.
It’s peak…
Where exactly is the place to start that quest?
I only known her from Project X Zone
She and T-elos are original from the Xenosaga trilogy series, back on the PS2 era. A rpg jewel that should you must try if you haven't.
This sidequest does not exist
@Hkg 1 dude it’s a joke about the low drop rates i didn’t mean that literally
KOS-MOS intelligence isn't artificial it's natural
For the people who know they said her name wrong the people who directors for the VA’s didn’t do their jobs very well that’s why the voice acting in this game is wacky like rex’s actor knows how to scream he just didn’t get good voice direction
how to start this event?

Look in her affinity chart and try to see which one leads to this event(a quest like this usually ties to a field skill, to give you a hint of where exactly to look)
Wait , do i get KOSMOS eventually in the story or do i hv to do quests to get her or how?
Leo Kaizer According to people, you just get her randomly. She's a random drop, you can get her pretty early or pretty late, depending on whether or not luck is smiling upon you.
Im wondering is KOS - MOS the 3rd Aegis?
technically yes, in xenosaga she derives power from the zohar (the conduit as its called in XBC), the zohar is a direct link to the power of U-DO/The Wave Existence, which is where the Architect resides, so although she is not an Aegis in the truest sense, she has the same power as one (technically she is Kadomony in the way that Kadomony is the computer that takes the power of the zohar to operate deus aka the Zohar-Kadomony-Deus system)
When KOS-MOS come from?
TheRookies5 You can get her from any common, rare or legendary core Crystal. It's completely random. You can boost the odds of getting her by using Justice boosters.
She is also not locked behind a chapter wall. You can get her very early if your lucky.
She Originated from from the game called Xenosaga.
Kos-Mos is Elma .... did ya hear the XCX fanfare jingle?
Is that the same kosmos va?
sephiroth21 No, she uses a new VA not from 1/3 or 2.
unfortunately no, her original va is leagues better though
Is this dlc?
No. You can get her base game as in the blade album her icon is after Florens and before Heralds which are base game rare blades. After Dahlias icon in the album the rare blades are DLC exclusive.
It was nice seeing KOS-MOS in a new game, but not too please that it had to be this one.

LoL. yeah i swear the developers new exactly what they were doing. nobodies that naive. XD actually i remember this one scene from X zone 1 where Frank west takes her picture. the picture scores "perfect erotica." XD
KOS-MOS is great but this voice actress is not so good. It doesn't feel like KOS-MOS ironically
English? Lol
Could be worse
Gotta love her
Still the voice acting in this game is oooo bad
What a terrible faces and animations !!! Even xenosaga 1 had better faces and animations
Its a Sidequest
worse KOS MOS VA ever
Fuck off, weeb!
TonyKanameKuran lol
Do you want a piece of me?
I wish they would have brought bridget hoffman back but she’s like 60 now.
she voiced atoli for the .hack remaster just fine
How do you start this?
