Tale of Five Kasen - Игры
After the 3.3 archon quest, it is confirmed that Katsuragi and Niwa are two separate people. Nevertheless, Niwa is still confirmed to be related to the Kaedehara Clan in blood making him a relative of Kazuha.
I'm actually still confused. So, why exactly Katsuragi was killed?
Is this event still held on inazuma or just changing the last art of albedo if timeline changed and scara never exist?
@@zerioification Mikoshi Nagamasa was the head of operations in Tatarasuna Smelting process.
Katsuragi was a loyal servant of Mikoshi Nagamasa.
Both Niwa Hisahide and Katsuragi works under Mikoshi Nagamasa.
Bcos of Dottore's deeds, many ppl have died on the factory and that will tarnish Mikoshi Nagamas' honor and reputation with the Raiden Shogun.
Katsuragi offered himself as a sacrifice so that the blame for the Tatarasuna smelting incident will not fall on Mikoshi Nagamasa. And although, unwilligly, Mikoshi Nagamasa ultimately killed Katsuragi to save himself of the blame.
Spoiler.......
.....
...
..
Why was Yoshinori sparred then?
In Scara's eyes he is an enemy as
he is biologically a Niwa and a direct descendant of the Niwa who fled after he kills and abandons his subordinates. (According to Dottore's lies posing as Escher)
Has anyone noticed that most of Scaramouche's story is present in temporary events? First the stars are fake event and now this one, I wonder why. The only time we see him in the main story is during Inazuma's main quest
Is kind of the same with Albedo. He appears in so many events (the last one pretty much explained his entire backstory lol) yet the only permanent content we've got of him is his character quest. He doesn't even appear in any of the archon quests, yet is hard to remember this since we see him so frequently because of events.
I liked the lore presentation of this even , sad for those who miss it,
@@tsunami3963 maybe because they’re both artificially created humans, so their stories are being artificially inserted into the world as well
There’s also Fischl who has only appeared in a temporary event and hasn’t appeared anywhere else
@@monke3969 its bcs oz' cn va was accused of sexual manipulation of his fans
There are some interesting facts about Alice(Klee's mom). In Teyvat Travel Guide vol.3, Alice may have met with Hibiki, the shrine maiden of Assae Shrine and Neko's owner, because the book stated that Alice try to caught Neko once but was stopped by "the killjoy shrine maiden" which seem to be Hibiki. Alice also met with Yae and described her as "a grown-up girl who can't be easily teased anymore". These informations make me thinks that Alice is at the very least 500+ years old due to the fact that she met with Hibiki and the fact that she saw/knew young Yae.
In the same book she calls Yae a child that has grown up enough to not be easy to tease anymore. She is definitely older than Yae, who herself is a bit over 500 years old.
I think she is more than 500 years old since she have seen child yae and hibiki when she was still not leaving the asase shrine. Alice is prolly been traveling for more than 500 years
There's also the fan theory that Alice is an original Enkidomiyan making her at least 2400 years old since they came up around the time of the Archon war. The theory starts from one of the books down there showing some of the name changes as they came up and one is Eris changing to Alisu. Admittedly its a bit weak till you connect the Greek goddess Eris, Goddess of Discord, to her most notable myth, The Golden Apple of Discord. This lady has quite the history to show us if true
She also met albedo’s mother
Oh my. So Alice might have the same curse from Khan’reah??!!
Don't forget the fact that "Kunikuzushi" means "to destroy a country" meaning that when Kunikuzushi told Yoshinori to tell Ei his name is Kunikuzushi, its basically a lowkey threat to Ei that Scaramouche will destroy Inazuma!
Albedo, an artificial human created by someone from Mondstadt: I will destroy Mondstadt
Scaramouche, a puppet created by the Archon of Inazuma: I will destroy inazuma
Okay but how about Liyue??
@@sleepya1135 Azdaha albeit not human is the closest I can think of. The jade chamber would be a good symbol too.
@@sleepya1135 Azhdaha?
@sleepy a
I believe for Liyue, it’s Shenhe, as for how she’s a threat, she’s meant to be the bearer of the “curse of calamity” they talk about in her story.
@@sleepya1135 Correction: Albedo is an artificial human created by Gold (Rhinedottir), an alchemist from Khaenri'ah
I was confused on Kunikuzushi's story timeline about the Raiden Gokaden so thanks for explaining it so clearly in this video!
Let me fix this reply section
Yes..Actually I recall teh blacksmith revenge note mentioned..now I get it!!!
Another fun little note.. If you use hydro on the fifth portrait, you can make the person in the portrait appear briefly.
thxx
I did that several times after because I’m a Scaramouche simp
I already know that. It's a nice easter egg.
You can also just look with Elemental sight
@@genderenigma8276 ooo cool i didn't know that
I was really hoping to see any kind of interaction between Venti and Ei but i guess that's not possible...? Well atleast we got a Venti and Yae interaction and they seem close enough to dicuss things kinda seriously. Seeing that archons wouldn't even want to see each other despite being at the same place makes me think that they are purposefully avoiding any sort of communication lest they draw any kind of suspicion from the celestia folks. But that's just what I thought anyway. Thank you cat for this video!
Same
I think it's not the case. If I'm not mistaken Venti and Zhong Li are already met and drank together. That's after both of them lost their Gnosis. Maybe Venti thought Ei would still carrying Gnosis and didn't want to take risk. Because of that he talked Yae first. Also in Sara's short story we see Ei is walking outside and only came to us when she saw us. They might meet each other. I'm saying this because when we get closer to Yae and Venti they didn't tell us anything. I guess it will be revealed in the future main story. We are learning about Kaenriah, Ei was afraid her country will become like Kaenriah. Zhong Li has regrets about Archon war (his stories, face expression tells it especially about hilichirls) but he developed his country no matter the cost only then he acted dead. Venti's return is the cause/start of everything because Istaroth sent a spy when we were talking with Venti in front of the Tree (where Vanessa ascended to Celestia). Venti's deep sleep, Makato's agreement, Zhong Li's unknown pact with Istaroth or with other shades are all against Celestia. Those 3 might back up Tsaritsa.
she blatantly states in her voicelines that she doesn't like/get along with venti.
@@siionach That was when she insisted in an eternity of unchanging things tho, she might get along with Venti now as he’s the first Archon to have absolute trust in human. While that was just a speculation of mine, don’t you think it’s funny that Venti bumped into everyone everytime in the main quest, but not Raiden?
@@hazelluong2954 Yeah I think they talked about Istaroth and Makato's agreement but not openly. Because I think Makato was like Venti both of them likes to roam freely and taste life the best way they can. Maybe Makato talked with Venti before the war and when Sokaku Decree is no more he knew this was the right time to talk with her. We won't know untill we meet Istaroth herself or untill Tsaritsa tell us the pact between her and Morax. Also there might be other clue about us. In the Chasm there are some Husks calls us "The Traveler who has companion calls itself "Fate" it is the calamity itself" or something like that. None of the Archons talked about Paimon. While Albedo clearly said he never saw someone like Paimon. So they might tried to evade us. Zhong Li also didn't tell all the stories with details. He always said "Don't rush about your adventure..." So I think they know what is going to happen and they are making a new war agreements. They may be ally for Tsaritsa or they will join Aether. I'm thinking that they are trying to make Aether "The Third Who Came". It might possible because Aether has all the signs of Primordial One.
I am really upset that Venti doesn't even have an interaction with Ei. At least a small talk would be nice. It's an anemo archon itself visiting Inazuma.
I think they'll do that once we meet all the archons, since all the archons are kinda turning their backs to each other, it'll be nice to have an archon reunion once we meet all the archons
Yeah 🥲 instead ,venti have a laughful laugh with miko...
I mean zhongli visit venti's favourite bar yet they didn't met
@@sobeksuwek Every journey has it's final day..
Dont rush~~
Looking how electro and anemo are connected, i was really hoping for same.
But its all right, they will meet in future
Another tragic thing about Kunikuzushi's friend --- Katsuragi was killed by Chiyo's human adopted son --- Mikoshi Nagamasa. Who was also the adoptive brother of Mikoshi Douken, who would be latter be re-named as Iwakura --- the one who funded the "Tengu Swep" and Iwakura sword art school.
For those who don't know about Chiyo or Torachiyo. She was red Oni, and a dear friend of Raiden Ei, she appeared during the "Raiden Shogun: Nightmare" demo. She was swallowed by a beas of sin, while Chiyo managed to kill from within, the abyss corruption made her attack Ei.
Shortly after his Oni brother, Douken ran away, Nagamasa was the next Mikoshi clan leader. And to cleanse his clan's name, he became an Inspector for the Shogunate. According to few notes, Nagamasa hates any form of injustice, and he was obsessed with the Furnace.
If I’m not mistaken the weapon enhancement “oni masks” explain some of Torachiyos journey
@@Janeisshegames Yeah, but Torachiyo was latter converted into a title rather than a name.
is'nt it a "he"?
@@naenae4953 nope, the inazumans for the sake of a "male fighter pride" preferred to alter Chiyo's gender, but she is actually a very beautiful woman, as stated by Saiguu.
Where can I find this in the game?
One thing to add guys, that scara has been imprisoned by inspector naga masa after finding that scara own the badge that shogun gave him as a proof of his connection with the shogun and act as freedom given to him. Nagamasa wanted to use scara as leverage to bring back the honor of his clan because what happened with his mother, but seeing as Katsura gi know about this (and Katsuragi too is scara friend) release scara from his imprisonment secretly and told him to never show that badge of proof to anyone. When Nagamasa learn about how scara escape because Katsuragi help him, that is when he slash him out of rage and that led him to die, scara learn this later and wanted to exact revenge not on the guy, but on the blade that killed him.
This is why scara want to erase gokaden, so that inazuma would never has sword seathe blood ever again by erasing the blacksmith that created the sword. Most people on scara reddit agree that scara is gentle person (I think husk set agreed on this) , but would have a change of heart because of delusion. Can't wait to see scara again in the next patch!
Add to that the interpretation that the people of Tatarasuna were suffering, and Kunikuzushi was forced to see them suffer as a result, as no help came. KlemenTime theorized that he was locked up because Mikoshi thought he was a spy sent by the Shogun--let's not forget that Mikoshi was obsessed on regaining the honor of his clan.
thats some good lore thats why i love scara so much
Well, he doesn't seem to be a gentle person now. By all accounts I have seen in game he is pretty cruel, even to his own subordinates.
@@brynphillips9957 I actually don't deny that he's not gentle--in fact I call him a little piece of sht 😆 (in a joking manner of course). But it would admittedly be interesting if Mhy releases a complex character who is a such a brat to the Traveler too, and that is Scaramouche.
@@brynphillips9957 Tbf, he isn't cruel to everyone. There are some info and hints that he was actually kind to children and elderly. He's a complex character that neither just black and white.
So the story of the Five Kasen really started like this:
The Five Kasen will submit their compiled works but Akahito supposedly wrote a plagiarized poem (but was really done by Kuronoshi) and was punished through banishment by the Shogun. Sumizome had doubts if the former did plagiarized his work and tried to find the truth by dipping the page wherein the work of Akahito was written. It has the seal which made it look authentic at face value but Sumizome knew another method by which the banished poet used to further to show that his work was authentic: a technique which made his work waterproof. And so, Sumizome went and dipped the page in question and- the ink was erased in the paper proving that it was not Akahito's work.
Coincidentally, Aoi saw this and was puzzled by Sumizome's action which also inspired him to write this as a poem for their latest compliation that will be submitted. Kuronoshi knew this and before he was exposed and possibly punished for the act of framing up the now innocent Akahito, he coerced Aoi to remove his work, (which was now compiled and will be submitted)referencing what Sumizome had done.
Additionally, some funny situations stand out for me during the Iridori Festival.
Kujou Sara not noticing the change in the Shogun's way of speaking ( obviously it was Ei), and tried to downplay her enthusiasm when discussing how to take care of the statue of Her Excellency,The Lord of Thunder Narukami Ogosho.
Itto being used by Thoma to accomplish his errands as part of the Yashiro Commission's responsibility during the festival.
The amount of typing
Tysm, I was so confused!!!
Razor translation: Five kasen need to submit poem. Akahito write poem. Shogun see poem is copied. Sumizome doubt. She put poem in water. Ink turn blurry. Means someone framed Akahito. Aoi saw sumizome. Aoi write in poem. Kuronoshi was the one who frame Akahito. Kuronoshi think poem is evidence of his crime. Kuronoshi threaten Aoi to remove poem. Suikou was supposed to turn in poem. But got drunk. Aoi rip page and give to Kuronoshi. Next day suikou give poem. Then realize one page missing.
@@yui_0x.x thank you so much. I read it with Razor voice and was laughing so much I spilled my drink 🤣
you didn’t include this in the video but actually if you read the lore behind ayato’s signature weapon, haran geppaku futsu, you will find out that the person who forged this weapon had 3 students, and one of them was called niwa
ooohhh
Yes, and it's also highly likely that Katsuragi wasn't a Niwa. Didn't Katsuragi work under the Mikoshi Clan? And Niwa, together with two other clans, one of them being the Kaedehara clan, worked together on the Isshin art. And as we got to know in the event, the Kaedehara clan worked under the Kamisato clan for a long time. So Scaramouche probably did not 'spare' Yoshinori because of Katsuragi. I'm also convinced that he did not have any sympathy for the name Niwa but that's just a gut feeling.
I pretty sure the "Raiden Gokaden incident" is the big reason for the downfall of Kamisato clan that make Ayato/Ayaka's father work himself out to death and their mother died of grief.
yeah, Ayaka mentioned it.
the only time the Kamisato clan's standing started to improve was when Ayato became the commissioner
That incident may also contributed to Kamisato granddad early death, resulting in Kamisato dad ruling at young age.
Yes, and also it mentioned on yae character story 5 in her profile. Raiden almost punish kamisato clan but yae meddle on it. So the shogun spare the whole clan and giving them chance again
Scara really did many incident in inazuma
Yae probably also gave the Kamisato clan a new purpose as the organisers for events and cultural aspects, where it seems as before they were overseeing the weapon smithing clans.
About Kunikuzushi: their name in Kanji is 国崩, which means "destroying a nation". This 'may' implied they initially planned to revenge the whole nation starting with destroying its symbolic weaponsmith art.
Edit: Maybe they planned to revenge the nation because the one who created them (which is the god of the nation) abandoned them, not because their friend was killed.
I don’t think he chose this name I think this is the name that Raiden gave him why else would he tell them to tell her his name if it was a random name she wouldn’t understand it wouldn’t make sense. Then scaramouche is the name he chose later and Raidens voicline comments on it.
@@stephanieburkinshaw he chose that name himself.
@@stephanieburkinshaw You do realize Japanese names often hold deep meanings (the "Jugemu Jugemu" joke is a humorous example of this) that the mere mention of this name to the Shogun would make her literal cogwheels turn when realizing that the actions of then Kunikuzushi shows enough evidence of what his plans are at that time.
@@stephanieburkinshaw that was the name he chose himself
@@hanbeitakenakasama7735 yes it would show her the plan it’s a hugely important name and the mention of someone by the name of nation destroyer whos destroying the sword arts one by one would be a very impactful name but my point was that she wouldn’t know it was her puppet if she didn’t know the name already
I find it both weird and hilarious how much of Inazuma’s novels are fan fiction about the Raiden Shogun. You would think it would be sacrilege, and if it was IRL, kinda creepy/weird in some cases, I’m sure
I mean Inazuma is based on Japan so...
teyvat has its own rules moment
@@ogro6305 cultured
Probably like rendition of greek mythology
Still, kinda bold of them when the actual god still walk among them
I think ei and tri commission let that slide coz of yae miko. Yae is the 2nd most powerful person on inazuma.
The dark side: Kunikuzushi's past, Kazuha's great grandfather's past, and the death of the other 4 Forging arts of the Raiden Gokaden
The Bright Side: Eimiko fanfiction
the DANM GOOD CONTENT lol
i wanted to know the scaramouche lore and ended up crying myself eimiko could be cannon bru
13:27 Hoyoverse isn't shying away 😂
Masako made the Shogun drink the Rainbow Aster through kissing (sort of like CPR in romantic stories) in the story.
It seems like reference to Yae Sakura kissing Kallen (by giving medicine syrup) in GGZ manga
Oh my goodness 😂😂😂
Honey when I say romance I DON’T MEAN THIS??? SO MASAKO PUT THE DRINK IN HER MOUTH, KISSED SHOGUN, SPAT THE DRINK IN SHOGUN’S MOUTH AND IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED?!
@@NahidaIsBabyCabbage That....that actually sounds disgusting.
Why Ik thqt they are like besties irl but...
Only thing I'm missing in this event is the final festival cut scene like other festivals
YASHHH like windblume and Venti talking in the end.
let's put it on Next Survey Guys 🙏🏻
still wishing it happens at the end..
really wanna see them all, we didnt even get yoimia and itto, the teaser teased this so hard
@@0xVENx0 but yoimiya and itto did appear
yoimiya with the klee dodoco novel and itto with the rainbow aster quest
Agree, some kind of concluding cinematic
I think this event was more like the Gouba even in Liyue, where the final 'cutscene' was similar to the art style in this event. There is probably another actual main Inazuman festival in the works with a proper cutscene. This event was needed to flesh out life in Inazuma and progress the story before we can actually begin celebrating there with the Inazuman cast exclusively.
Anyone else feels like miko made the drink with soy milk(beans) as the main ingredient to mess with itto knowing he'll somehow drink it?. She always does things with a purpose,it's just never clear until you ACTUALLY see it.😑
You know it's revenge for Itto beating Miko in that Kitsune Ramen eating contest.
@@sylvarogre5469 but I bet miko had fun seeing itto eat those ramen, she probably wasnt even trying.
@@sylvarogre5469 she wasn’t even trying since she just wanted to see him suffer due to allergies and pay for her meal lmao
Well Yae Miko's favorite food is tofu and it's made out of soy, it just happens that she likes soy content foods while Itto is allergic to it so the drink is not a made up prank for just for Itto. It's purely a collaboration from angel share and Yae
Just like I suspect that she told all of those booksellers to give Gorou prizes related to foxes and herself just to mess with him, know he would accompany Kokomi to Ritou and he wouldn't have the courage to follow them both to the meeting. And also how she was also (actually confirmed) behind the entire main story of the event along with Ayato.
Honestly, I don't doubt anything from her anymore, anything that happens I see Miko's hands on it. I'm getting paranoid xD hahahah
Not sure if this is an unpopular take, but I appreciated how the story quests in the event were relatively peaceful... As in zero combat whatsoever. I enjoyed only playing as my (unbuilt, dull blade armed) Traveler for the immersion
I totally agree!! It's so nice to just interact with the characters we've met without combat, just vibes
Same I also have a maxed out dull blade on my artitactless traveler when the quests are tame lmao
I maxed out my traveler for this reason. I always use the appropriate characters when doing events. It makes the game and quests feel so much fun
same. first time i pulled out my level 40 traveler for the whole event
I read somewhere that "Niwa" means "red feather" or some sort. It would be cool if Niwa clan have this distinguishable feature to them like Kazuha' red streak hair so Scaramouche would be able to recognized them easily. But then again, Hoyo went lazy with the Kazuha great grandfather NPC so no one knows lol.
The great grand father is adopted
@@tehepicduck9724 I know. The great grandfather is a niwa which means red feather but he is still the biological great grandfather of kazuha. It's not like Kazuha was the one who is adopted, right?
yes, the kanji 丹羽 means red(or maroon) feather
All the disciples of Isshin art (Kaedehara Kagemitsu, Niwa Nagamitsu and Akame Mitsunaga) have "red" in their names
My god you have guessed that perfectly
To be honest, I'm expecting some Raiden and Venti conversation during The Irodori Festival. But Gorou/Kokomi and Yae Miko encounter ends the Irodori Festival very well.
it would be cool if they found some way to make Kazuha craft a weapon with his family art and probably make it a 5*
It could be a Event like "The Chalk Prince and the Dragon" which gave Festering Desire
But then it will be 4 star
Maybe on his rerun a new sword is released? Because freedom sworn is a mond weapon, what if he gets his own this time
@@m_1230 that would be amazing.. I mean Iron Sting is great and all.. but again.. the design doesn't match at all...
Give this man a katana
@@FahrizalSurya Yeaah thats why even tho iron sting would be better I just give him amenoma kageuchi since it matches with his design
I find it fascinating that the two times we meet Ayato in a quest like this, he plays a role as chess master. Making tiny moves that result in favorable results.
It's exactly like how we first meet him, beating Thoma in a game without even having to look at the board. Ayato was barely in the event and yet he's been able to manipulate things to lead to this. I just find that interesting.
That's an interesting perspective
Exactly. And not only in game, even in his trailer he seems to be doing that.
He is leading the Shuumatsuban after all.
He's literally like otto from honkai, except not evil manipulator😂
@@friolle Not yet.
I wasn't there for windblume so this is the best Festival so far. The character interact in fun way and the quest bring out their charm with a spicy story to go with
lantern rite: am i a joke to you?
@@summerblossom841 Bruh Lantern rite story was not that good. The entire of lantern rite 2.0 was just Keqing Date Simulator where we explain the literal Yuheng how to do her damn job by narrating a poor story like she's a kid or something. I love Keqing because of her strong will and independence. Seeing her being reduced to yet another character we had to run errands for was saddening
The characters in Lantern rite also did not interact in a fun way. Apart from Keqing, everyone else was just in the background.
@@summerblossom841 last lantern rite was trash just a keqing dating sim
Just the story is good. But the events you could do weren’t as much fun as some other. Even the tower game was better the very first time.
For my opinion, not to include characters interaction & a bit of inazuman lores that carry the entire events. Theres nothing about this festival that interested me, the way they presented other characters from another regions as main characters & inazuman characters are just a side quest. Excluding the japanese style cutscene i dont get a vibe of identical inazuman fesitval at all. Tho i know this supposed to be international fesitival but i cant recall the special thing from this events. Such as, if we talk about windblume, we have flower-ish style decoration, poems. Lantern rite is about fire work, foods. Irodori is about? Hm five kazen that was illustrated by mondstadtian, mini game. Thats all🥲 (i do love albedo art style and his talented tho, but albedo and venti are like the main characters here, if we dont have lores about kazuha clan and scaramouche i’d think it’s mond event but took place in inazuma)
Another thing I noticed about this event is that Venti seemed to be bringing people with the paper slips together and finding important info, I have a feeling that he was in on it from the start and knew what was happening. We see him talking with Yae and Ayato said that she was the one that suggested it. Also Venti was the person with the first slip and was conveniently sleeping in a storage crate… and he was personally invited by the Ayato himself.
When we were searching for clues at the warehouse, he stood right across from the flower pot (if I remember correctly) but just appears to be looking for alcohol, yet he seems to know what is going to happen.
I feel like Venti might have also been one of the people that was there to observe us and report to Yae and Ayato.
And venti and yae definitely talking the aftermath of their scheme lol on the food stand
And when you try to find who was the one giving out the poems, if you speak to Venti, he says that he knows who it is.
I love this event so much Hoyoverse put so much lore and detals and character Interactions!!!
Yes me too, I'm way impressed about how they make these great stories. It's just feel very good even I can't describe it haha.
I'm not sure whether "Niwa" has been mentioned in-game previously, but the lore of Ayato's BiS Haran Geppaku Futsu mentions him and a "Kaedehara Kagemitsu" being swords crafstmen apprentices of the Isshin art, which could explain why "Niwa Yoshinori" was adopted by the Kaedehara clan.
Wait, so the reason is?
I learned interesting things at the event:
Alice treats Miko like a child saying "little Miko" and treats Raiden Ei like an old woman, calling her "old lady". She once in the past visited the cat shrine and met the priestess Hibiki. So for she 500 years its too young and 3000-2500 years its very old 👀 that's means maybe she have around 1000-1500 years and she knows things about Khaenri'ah, so I thinks the traveler just talk face to face with her in a future when already knows the truth about Khaenri'ah because she can do spoilers very fast and easy.
Albedo use the artistic name "Calx", thats is calcite in Latin in alluding the tittle Kreideprinz, in the Abyss they use the Latin for communicate. Tha'ts pretty interest.
Zhenyu its the Xingqiu's artist name, means Pillow of Jade alluding Liyue and Rainshower, maybe alludes to his skillset, thats cool
9:46 no wonder why i took like 5 mins to pick one of the choices... I chose the middle tho because i think katsuragi(forgot his name) told scaramouche to never tell his identity to anyone.
Same
Same here
Same cuz it seemed like the more legit choice in my opinion
Pretty sure the past is irrelevant because Katsuragi only said that so past Scaramouche (kunikuzushi) wouldn’t be harmed by the officials and the Inspector but now is the present, scara pretty much doesn’t care if anyone knows his identity, he’s strong enough to fend off his enemies cus he’s literally a fatui harbinger:
I think the answer to that question lies in the one which make you question it the most. So I think "the relationship between Scara and Niwa" is the answer. I think people want to hide this, but still unsure about Scara motivation.
For the other two options, I can prove those may not the right answer because:
Hide that Kaedehara Family was framed - Scara already admit he was the culpit right at the begining of the flashback. If he wanted to hide it, he could have said nothing and killed them all.
Hide his identity - Scara said his name himself after he learnt about Niwa origin, so it was like he wanted for 'her' to know it was him. He didn't even try to hide it at all in the first place, he even wanted to inform someone about it. (he literally told them to tell Ei the name he chose for himself “Kunikuzushi” that symbolized his independence and readiness to destroy the nation)
After this event I'm thinking kazuha might be coming with us to sumeru(or he goes by himself and we just happen to meet up), it feels like they're setting up a story that involves kazuha and scara to be one of the main plots of sumeru alongside whatever the actual plot of sumeru is going to be, maybe scara will end up as a weekly boss like both of the other harbingers and kazuha helps us fight him.
I doubt it because there's no reason for scara to go to sumeru since he left the fatui, second is that the fatui only want the gnosis scara has so the traveler won't help the harbingers, so possibly we the traveler are gonna team up with him to fight against the fatui
@@wanderingcommenter4638 There may be actually a reason. It was speculated that Il Dottore was the one who unlocked Scamouche's limitations to his powers. And now that he has the Gnosis (which he couldn't control), he might visit the doctor again in Sumeru.
@@DESTRUCT0V actually he can control the gnosis, according to the lore scara was made by Ei to hold the gnosis, so scara doesn't need help from dottore to do that, however i do feel like dottore might stole the gnosis from scara
@@wanderingcommenter4638 Ohh, I forgot about that. I also can't think of any reason for Scaramouche to be playable in the future, even if Ei and Miko have voicelines about him that heavily implies he's playable. You may be right about teaming up against Dottore tho.
@@wanderingcommenter4638 You know Scaramouche is the failed version of Ei's puppet for a reason right? He couldn't hold the Gnosis.
This answers the question in my mind as to how Albedo even knew how Kunikuzushi (Scaramouche) looks like. It was the most baffling thing to me in those series of events.
Ayato told him
11:30 it's in the video
how did ayato know what kunikuzushi looked like though?
@@signaturehereplease713 he saw him in the warehouse
@@signaturehereplease713 Ayato saw him trying to find the secret. And besides, the fact that he says "It is not hard to guess who it is" makes me think that he knew Scaramouche even before.
So I guess this confirms that we'll be seeing Scaramouche again in either Sumeru (most likely option), or we'll run into him one more time in Inazuma in another event similar to this one. Guess the rumors about him becoming a playable character in the future may be true since we've been receiving so much drip marketing/build-up for him for a long time now.
And also... damn Yae. Either she's just massively trolling and trying to get Ei completely flustered, or we have another lesbian pairing in the game like with potentially Eula and Amber.
Still wished that Venti would have a nice conversation with Ei and that maybe Zhongli also showed up in Inazuma, since we don't really see the Archons interact and talk to each other except in their character details or in the Serenitea Pot. Hell, I'm surprised Ei only showed up just for one (albeit hilarious) conversation between her, Sara, and Traveler about the statue. Would have loved to see Ei get exasperated again by Venti's drunkenness or Zhongli asking her about her approach to avoiding erosion.
Or at the very least sharing some Osmanthus wine with each other...
Well, we actually have a subtly implied, canon-ish lesbian couple in-game other than eimiko and eula amber...I'll give you a hint: "Only a true treasure captures the eye of Captain Beidou. Seems I've struck gold." 😏😏😏😏
@@inurface6342 I always viewed Ningguang and Beidou as frenemies more than them being attracted to each other, but I guess they can count too.
@@agopessimist1335 well, relationship can be complicated, and frenemies can also be couples
@@inurface6342 Oh yes definetly 😏
This paring is magnificent. I have nothing against it. 😏
Yae is already plotting thing with ZL through Ganyu for like very long.
Yae is now plotting with Venti directly.
Yae have finally found a way to bring Ei out if her hiding.
Yae have given the Gnosis to Scara, a puppet she said she would kill in Ei's place.
Yae was plotting with Ayato during the vision hunt decree. Then she was plotting with him again in the new festival. (Ayato is the one who invited Venti for her to meet).
Yae is plotting with Kokomi during the same festival, right after the whole Enkanomyia event. So she's likely well aware of Abyss doing in Enkanomyia as well.
Yae said in presence of Raiden that she should take the role of electro archon for a day. Probably joking and mocking, but also hinting she's doing the archon work for her.
Yae is well aware of the situation in Sumuru, and after archon quest, she's the one who tell the Traveller about it. Though very vague, but the fact that MC talk with Venti in Mond, ZL in Liyue, and Yae instead of Shogun or Ei in Inazuma is a heavy hint.
Yae is aware of Istaroth, and discuss her role in Makoto story with Ei.
Yae is aware that ZL "stepped down" and "handed Liyue to humans", which is a top secret most high profile figures in Liyue itself doesn't know/believe he actually died.
What Yae is plotting though?
If you connect the dots from all previous points, you will realize that's a world level plotting, not just something local to Inazuma. Especially the Gnosis handing..
....when Hoyoverse said Miko is a 5* star because she's important for the plot, I didn't think her influence will be this BIG.
I don't actually doubt this, considering in irodori, most of the things that happened can be directed back at her, even Sarahs figurine and Ittos allergy. *HER BRAIN!*
In "Pretty Please, Kitsune Guuji?" When the Shogun was battling a sickness , she couldn't taste her food and is feeling very weak, so she just thought of her very good roommate Yae Masako, she then drifts to sleep thinking about Yae.
She then gets a fever dream , where Yae Masako bought a drink that she herself brewed to cure the Shogun's cold , which is the "Rainbow Aster".
The Shogun was asked to drink it but she was too helpless because of her sickness, so Yae Masako fed it to her "in a way she'd never dare to imagine". When she woke up, her head was still shocked from what happened in her dreams, but she *feels something sweet at the corner of her lips* . Then the story ends.
She couldn't taste before from her sickness, so what happened in her dreams of Yae feeding her the cure (Rainbow Aster) mouth-to-mouth might've actually happened. But also it's a light novel, it just means that the devs probably ship Yae x Ei.
And youre the one who catwithbluehat mention to explain it,right?
"very good roommates", historians would agree with you on that.
Oh, so that's what they mean, lol
the content must remain secret LOL
Ei: You gonna baby-bird it to me?
Miko: *hu-hurk, hu-hurk, bleurck!*
One theory I could tell why only Amenoma Art survived.
When Iwakura Art was still a thing, Amenoma made two swords. One was given to Iwakura Clan, and the clone is given to Saimon Clan, hence it survived. When we tasked to find the lost child (Saimon Jirou), we got Amenoma Kageuchi blueprint as a prize.
world quest? how to triggered it
@@altheajenniferreyes3477 it starts by saving that person locked in a cage on top of Jinren Island (the one that has the mobs sitting there) I guess
sorry to disappoint you but its actually because scaramouche gave up on destroy the blacksmiths after reach kaedehara clan.
he already killed 3 clans, and was on his way to kaedehara and amenoma. but bc he stopped at kaedahara he decided that he shouldnt even continue since its no use now, he cant destroy all 5
njir iya juga
@@0xVENx0 Scaramouche doesn't even think about Saimon Clan existed at all. In fact, Amenoma can always resorted to Saimon even if Scaramouche also destroyed their blueprint.

Yae Masako...kissed...the Shogun in order to...give her the drink.....nice??

Miko didnt write it

What I got from this event.
1) Taroumaru discovered that we stole the deposit and joined a Tournament to kick our butt.
2) Ei indirectly lead to the slow destruction of Kazuha's Clan and in the modern day, lead to the death of Kazuha's friend Tomo in the duel before the Throne...
And Ei doesn't even know that she's caused more pain to Kazuha than they both realized.
Let me add another piece of lore. The Raiden Gokaden was created thanks to Raiden Makoto --- she was the one who taugh her people the art of bladesmith and weapons. And this created the five families. Kunikuzushi almost managed to wipe out any form of Makoto's legacy from Inazuma's history. And also caused a great blow for the Kamisato Clan's reputation --- Ayaka and Ayato's father, had to work tiredlessly to save his clan from dishonor, and took a huge toll on his health.
*TLDR;* Ei, your son like breathing stuff.
@@mariapazgonzalezlesme Damn. Even almost wiped out her sister's legacy. 🙃
This was why Raiden Makoto was the leader and Ei was the Unga Bunga Battle Woman.
@@silverhawkscape2677 A lot of bad things happened because of Ei's lack of actions and responsability.
@@mariapazgonzalezlesme Well, better late than never with her finally getting things together.
If this keeps before the traveler came along. I won't be surprised if she somehow started another Archon war.
@@mariapazgonzalezlesme In this particular case it is more complex. Yae says that she strongly suggested Ei to just kill Scara from the start since being a failed product he could bring trouble later, but Ei refused to just kill her creation.
Scara had the shogun protection, which is why he was allowed to wander around Inazuma and obtain his first friend (check Husk of Opulent Dreams artifact set lore) and Yae was looking out for him, but something happened that ended up with his first friend dead and he with contact with the Fatui, who apparently screwed him up by giving him a delusion.
For the rainbow aster one, I'm pretty sure it meant that Yae fed Raiden Shogun the drink with a kiss...
I totally missed that...
I thought she fed Ei with her finger...
OMG HAHA
Proof that I didn't even started the event because this got me hella confused.
so Ei and Miko are rainbow lesbians, or just having fun.
Thank you so much for breaking down the story in simple terms, I was really confused when playing it
I've been obsessed with the Raiden Gokaden lore ever since Ayaka mentioned it in one of her voicelines. It's just so interesting, 4/5 sword arts gone in a span of 5 or so centuries and the fact the Kamisato Clan almost got swept up by the controversy. Oh and the Rainbow Asther... I must say, no wonder it's so popular that even Itto is obsessed with it lmao
12:00 “So it was kunikushi(scaramouche) himself who wanted to hide his own past “ hits different now 😭
fr😭
I'm guessing that masako fed raiden by drinking it, kissed her and let raiden drink it.
If you watched seven deadly sins, you would know how ban received immortality from Elaine.
This is just a guess tho
Yae Miko that fox. Ei puts too much faith in her. And she's taking full advantage of her position a little too much.
And that probably explains the fanart of Sara opening some Tengu X Shogun Fanfic.
If this keeps up. Yae Miko might actually make that Tengu general X Shogun Light Novel.
Don't let the Genshin shipping twitter find this out.
@@Zarozian Dude, it's not a straight ship. They've been salivating over this since Yae and Ei.
I thinks its a reference to honkai yae and kallen
I also thought of that! 😂 I was like no it can’t be and check the comment
This was a great event. I liked the backstory they weaved into the event story. I had missed the info about the Balladeer's origins, so thanks for that.
In the Act II last part where Paimon asks for the story writer and a cat suddenly showed up.
I was thinking that it was the Shuumatsuban
About the Rainbow Aster thing... I'm 90% sure it was a reference to when Yae Sakura "gave" Kallen the medicine. It has to be
Do explain good sir
@BettyCreeper good catch!! I hadn’t thought of that but you’re so right.
I tried to catch up on Scaramouche's story when Ayaka started talking about the Gokaden but got kinda confused along the way so thank you for this video, it really cleared up the timeline for me
It's quite sad for those who wouldn't be able to experience the event, it's so fun
You totally skipped over the part where they revealed one of Scara’s attacks! We know based on his character design he will most likely be a playable character. The man states his hat prevented Scara’s attack from killing him, so that means Scara may have a similar attack as Yae, striking lightning down from above onto the heads of his enemy. Or twt theory he beats people over the head with books 🤷♀️
Would be cool if he's a catalyst user that uses electro swords as projectiles
Well him being a potential electro character was obvious enough, they already datamined him since he was first shown in the meteor quest, i believe, alongside Baizhu
adding that they were killed in a blink of an eye, with that huge hat of scara its probably harder to move fast, also the reason why he kills swordsmiths cuz he hated the blades that killed his friend, so it makes more sense that the attacks were like lighting strikes or catalyst style
I hope his burst is like just taking his hat of making it bigger floating in the air doing huge aoe dmg
@@klee8846 omg, I imagined this exact thing like 2 days ago...... like imagine his burst will turn his basic attacks into purple electro swords from blobs of dark electricity
This story was a bit difficult for me to follow. Thanks for compiling all the information and breaking it down as usual. You make this game so much more enjoyable.
Genshin talks about a lot of puppets, homunculi, makes me think if the travelers are also some sort of puppet we are controlling. We control the puppet or artificial life of the travelers vessel and we in the end have to make a choice and most likely against our creators wishes for the greater good.
This event gives me hopes about storytelling in the future. Through a small fiction, they told 3 stories in parallel. As an aspiring writer, for me this is magecraft. As you play more of it, the subtextual parts become textual as well, which is like unveiling a story like Albedo did by unveiling his paintings or Kaedehara's writings were unveiled with water.
I know this might not be for everybody, since layers upon layers of subtext makes stories harder to understand in the first playthrough withour relying on channels like this one, but that's like a complex puzzle waiting to be cracked.
I like how this (three-sided) story doesn’t even need to exist in Genshin universe to make sense. I can totally see a short 12-episode Edo era anime with this exact story, and it would be an enjoyable one. Definitely an interesting case study for storytelling :)
I really want to see a story on Kazuha and scaramouche, and them possibly becoming friends. I always wondered why kazuha never got a story quest and I thought after going through this event he might get one to do with scaramouche after he- and its mentioned in the quest that there was a fatui envoy put to destroy evidence of kunikuzushi, but could not find said evidence and gave up, which made me think since he now has the gnosis he could be a direct kill target for the fatui, and due to how corrupt the gnosis is he might go insane from it hence we might have to fight him in sumeru, and stop the fatui from killing him after maybe finding more out about his story. The heart he might be getting, could be even kazuhas friends vision. it lit up at the end of the cutscene. All theories. I'm probably incorrect.
I want them to be friends as well! My favorite characters meeting would be so nice :’)
@@ranpo3s I agree with everything you said
Loved the festival so much
Same, it was really fun
Same
Same
Same, I had a great laugh all along! (Except the Kasens/Kazuha)
Other than the lore, it's kinda underwhelming compared to the other festival's TBH.
i love the complexity of scara as a character i'm looking forward for his next appearance!!!! thank you for the video as usual 🤍
The reason Ei probably "allows" such fanfic to exist is probably because She's too innocent to understand such histories.
In that hangout she's only made aware of it and immediately understands that it's coming from Yae, but isn't angry. However, I doubt that she reads them and thus sees the full extent...
@@edi9892 she loves novels
so😂
Boomer?
It was said, in the artifact Husk of Opulent Dreams, that Scara stopped killing because he got bored. This quest clears that it wasn't the case. He stopped because of the Niwa connection in the Kaedahara clan.
This implies he may have a redemption arc (there is good in him) and he may be playable.
May HoYoVerse release him this year.
Husk of opulent dreams: “the wanderer would never admit to this. He would never admit that he had done this as an act of revenge against the blade smith (Nagamasa) nor would he ever mention the truth, that he had abandoned his schemes halfway because they had suddenly become dull.”
So yeah, he unintentionally harmed a Niwa descendant who may or may not be related to Katsuragi, of course he would feel like shit and stop his bullshit altogether, he literally started the vengeance for his dead friend and because of the corruption in Tatarasuna that the shogunate seemingly ignored resulting in many deaths of the people, Yae came with help but was too late, maybe that’s why scara feels abandoned
Edit: idk I heard from leaks that scara may be playable in 3.2 or just early sumeru and in 2.8 the main story characters would be Kazuha, Mona, fischl, xinyan, etc. back in 1.1 mona, fischl and traveler met scara for the first time, in 2.2 childe mentioned scara to xinyan, now in 2.6 we find that scara has some sort of connection with Kazuha’s clan which would lead me to believe that Scaramouche might be mentioned or reappear with the reworked GAA islands (and possibly in Kazuha’s story quest as it mostly relates to his clan) and kazuha will somehow serve a role in Scara’s redemption arc cause how else will he be playable, anyway suuuper excited xD
Thank you for helping us understand the details better and tying everything together with the Husk artifact story! That's why I appreciate the effort of lore youtubers like you, you present the stuff we can find out from the game in a structured way, that helps a lot
I was confused about how Albedo knew the appearance of Scaramouche to draw him. After all, he needed models for all the other paintings, thank you for showing that dialogue that explained it! It makes sense that Ayato (though his spies) knows how Scaramouche looks like, at least well enough to provide a description for Albedo to use. Thanks for the info!
Katsuragikiri Nagamasa... its mean "the Nagamasa that cuts (killed) Katsuragi"
Kunikuzushi... its mean "Nation destroyer"
damn... hoyo really knows how to named their character properly
"kunikuzushi" is also a nickname for a type of cannon used irl. Interestingly to open Shakkei Pavilion, a domain which he was sealed, we have to blast the cave entrance off with a similar cannon.
Scaramouche lore is so damn good I hope all these can get their spotlight or their very own cutscene during scara's story quest or even make it part of his profile stories
also, big credits to you for deciphering and narrating this lore so clearly! You did amazing!
Thank you so much! 🙏 I was finally able to tie everything together. Without your explanation, many parts of Scarammooch's story were missing.
Cool, I like this kind of video. Honestly I played Genshin just for the story, because it was too damn great. I still don't know why most players only focused to build their characters, became metaslaves and skip the stories, yeah I know they can play like however they want but I just feel bad for them because missing these great story of Genshin Impact.
right? Nothing wrong about liking the more "technical side" of building characters and such (I play Genshin for the story too, but I also have my share of joy in building characters and such), but it really does strikes to me as odd these type of players stuck with Genshin for only *that*. Genshin was never shy since the beginning what this game was about - Like, the story and character driven stuff has always been there from the first cutscene. And then, some people complain "there's too much story/quests", like??? Yeah?? THat's how this game works?? It's like complaining Dark Souls is too difficult, or that Animal Crossing has too much "house building". Like you said, players can play however they want, but they shouldn't complain that the game is something it never was in the first place~
Same
Same some people also only look at booba and thigh they forgot lore exist and bash anyone who aren't interested
I wonder if this is all a set up for our next encounter with Kunikuzushi/Scaramouche in the future? Especially since Childe/Tartaglia impies that the former has gone rogue with the Electro Archon Gnosis in toll.
It's likely that's the case, but we'll have to wait and see
Now i get why rainbow aster has... "rainbow" in its name....
How Yae Miko managed to make Raiden drink the Rainbow Aster:
Yae Miko drinks the Rainbow Aster
Kisses Raiden
Spits the Rainbow Aster into Raiden's mouth
OH GOD TE BACTERIA
lmao
I don't think for a second Ei was going to stop that book being published. I don't think ei actually cares. Ei from her ownvoice line sounds like she knows Yae loves trolling people, specially her the most.
I'm so happy this event was made. It's such an interesting approach to sharing different character plots and Scaramouche's story. Kazuha doesn't have a story quest yet but I really hope he gets one soon because he's such a beloved character and honestly I think his story would be an emotional ride. A lot of people discard Scaramouche as the rude rat kinda guy and they're not wrong but (this is biased since I'm a Scaramouche lover) I honestly think he deserves more story lore and screentime. (Maybe even a banner cough cough.) I can't wait to see more lore in the future.
The rainbow aster part reminds me of when yae sakura feeds kallen medicine..
Same, fellow captain :)
Poor kazuha, he had a default-npc great grandfather
Oh no, not the Default NPC lineage!!!
what sad about all of this is how new players cant play the limited events. I started playing when 1.2 was ending and I missed the fischl-mona event where Scara first appeared. The festering desire
Same I started genshin(on my first account which I already gave to someone) when it was version 1.2 but I didn't know much about the game at that time so I missed the event and the weapon as well.
Miko really went and published a Herself X Ei fanfic, huh
"How did albedo know what scaramouche looked like"
Before scaramouche was erased from irminsul, he actually used to visit mondstadt alot so albedo could've encountered him ig?
There's another one that connects all these lore is from the Haran Geppaku Futsu lore which the Kaedehara kagamitsu, Niwa nagamitsu and Akame Mitsunaga clans are studied in same forging school, and their Teacher is the one who created the Haran Geppaku Futsu which is Masagomaru that everyone knows that ayato's signature sword. And we can say that the Kaedehara clan and Niwa clan are close family friend, but for Akame clan we didn't know yet what happened to this clan at this time.
5:15
It's only Kaedehara clan who was Kamisatos' vassal clan that were practicing smithing arts, the Kamisato clan (as Yashiro Commissioner) were simply meant to protect them and their arts as part of the commission's duty
And the Kamisato in question was just grandfather, not "great"
I.e comparatively speaking, Ayato and Ayaka are 1 generation older than Kazuha
i love ur editing style, it is so seamless. also? i loved the iridori festival so much. the chasm is why i built my traveler but iridori is why i kept my traveler out lol. thanks for this informative video
I cant believe there's no interaction between Ei and Venti in these event
I volunteer to explain how Masako fed Raiden Shogun the drink Lmao!
If you've seen Princess Mononoke. Just imagine the scene where Prince Ashitaka was too weak to eat the jerky, because San helped him out the same way Masako did for the Shogun.
if you wondering about the Raiden shogun and the Yae part: Yae drink the Rainbow Aster and then 😗 The Shogun lips since she can't lift her head up, Yae need to find a solution to feed Shogun the Rainbow Aster. (this is what i though)
This event story is very good, from lore-wise and fun part, 10/10... Tbh it's much clearer than the infamous inazuma archon quest finale. I kinda lost my faith for Genshin's story writing since then but this event is quite a redemption for me hahah. It seems they finally back to their best shape. Thanks for the explanation:>
So the novel by how Yae Masako fed Raiden Shogun the Rainbow Aster were a yuri moment, go on.
I guess one of the honkai writers managed to sneak in a piece of paper into the genshin writer board xD
Awesome build up for the next encounter with Kunikuzushi, from 1.0 to this day. Can't wait for 3.0, when he will probably appear.
Masako just fed the Shogun with a spoon and didn't bother to clean her mouth. No need to overthink.
About the next para, is that all how miko fed the shogun? I really was having all sorts of imaginations
i was thinking she put a straw to the nose lmao due to her prank nature
@@yusak8928 That is sick, I love it! I will treat this cannon from now on.

Oh thank archons for this video explaning the storyline & lore!
I wonder if miko would insult such a cosplay of herself not even getting her ears right.
That cosplayer needs to meet the expert cosplay costume designer. The one an only Wakana Gojo
The harbingers are surprisingly humanised while still being evil.
Are they really evil ?... or don't we just don't know their final plot.
@@dm6450 childe most likely isn’t. But signora i have full faith that she is. She seems very loyal to taritsa and will do anything. However saracamouchi does seem to have another plan. as if he knows something and is trying to figure it out for himself 🤔
@@ember9821 Yes but... What if... Fatui (like Abyssal order in my mind) where trying to free or save humanity... collecting gnosis and power to overthrow the godly rulers.
@@dm6450 i’m thinking taritsa knows something? She is the one giving the orders after all. There has to be a reason on why she needs the gnosis and maybe it’s to stop celestia from destroying worlds? Perhaps the whole kahneriah is what is connecting to these conclusions because that civilization ended in a very odd way. All the people, soldiers, and warriors are all still here just in monster form. I’m thinking what Aether(for me it is aether because i play as lumine) found at the end of his journey was the truth, the truth about what we’re the gods plans after all. If anything i think taritsa and aether are on the same side.
Well, about the “Why Kunikuzushi Stopped” portion. Niwa and Kaedehara were the family names of two of the three families that founded the Isshin Art (One of the branches of the Raiden Gokaden) (Said in the Haran Geppaku Futsu lore). I interpreted this bringing up of the name more along the lines of Kunikuzushi had already dealt with the Niwa Clan (Hence his father’s disappearance, seeing as how the revenge was enacted over decades) and Yoshinori was a face that looked more like it belonged in that group than the Kaedehara Clan.
And it would make sense as to why Yoshinori would go to the Kaedehara Clan after his father disappeared. As mentioned earlier members of the families collaborated in the past to form the Isshin Art. So if something were befall the Niwa Clan, it’s people would most likely seek out the other two clans that it has ties to.
Albeit, this wouldn’t explain why Kunikuzushi stopped, so maybe the name Niwa bears other significance to him.
He said he stopped because the plan became dull
This is so well explained! Thank you, for helping me understand the details I missed
i wish that with this we get a story quest or at least an event with a quest that has kazuha and scara in it
Yeahh imo their interaction would be very interesting
Thank you for making the story easy to understand.
What I got from this is that if Yoshinori didn't get adopted by the Kaedehara clan, Kazuha's surname would have been Niwa. Also, I like to assume that Kazuha looks the way he is because he's actually albino. Hahahahaha I was expecting for his grandfather to at least have white hair or a streak of red on his hair but, as expected, they used a generic npc. Oh, well~
On another note, the characters of the five kasens parallels to the people involved to the events that which led to the fall of the Isshin Art.
Suikuo : collateral damage -> Kazuha : the Kaedehara clan has already fallen by the time it was his turn to inherit the title as head
Aoi no Okina : witness -> Yoshinori Kaedehara : made the decision to tear away the clan from the Isshin Art after witnessing the events that happened at the beach and felt fear for the lives of his family
Akahito : victim -> Kaedehara clan swordsmiths : got framed for failing to make the Goshintou due to the blueprint of the Shogun being a forgery
Sumizome : investogator -> Former Kamisato Clan Head : got suspicious on the the swordsmiths' failure to make the Shogun's sword and headed the investigation on the case
Kuronushi : culprit -> Kunikuzushi : the person behind the events that lead to the present state of the Kaedehara clan
how yae masako fed the shogun the drink:
just shoved the glass in her mouth in its entirety, making her consume both drink and glass alike in one big gulp
the sweetness on her lips is because some of it spilled due to how forcefully she jammed that bad lad in there
i can't possibly think of any other way it could have been done
Bro miko must be so down bad for Ei to publish such a fanfic about her and her god like that😭😂
She’s so in love to the point that it’s embarrassing i can’t defend her anymore😂🤦🏻♂️
Did yall know that if you use any hydro elemental skills on the empty frame at the five kasen plaza the Baladeer appears in it
Thank you so much for this! A great and interesting video, I loved every single of it.
I think this event is super clever in story telling. But more importantly, it shows how smart Ayato and Yae are.
They're aware that Scaramouche will be a "threat" to Inazuma and they think they might not be able to handle it. So Ayato and Yae planned this event and five kasen story to get more relationship with people outside Inazuma. You can see Yae and Venti talking together (they might discuss something important!). Also Ayaka get along well with Kazuha (that's essential for her). etc.
Ayato investigated and identified Scaramouche's existence very fast. And I think Ayato said something likes we might fight same enemy in the future... :0
Mann... If Kaedehara art still exist, Kazuha will has his own Katana. He wont uses Fillet Blade.
Tbh, i thought the purple sword blueprint we got in this event in our bag can give us new katana...
Might throw it in Scara's face upon next meeting. Not as useful as slipper in emotional damage department, but still...
Well now I want to see Ei's reaction on that novel
There is a hole in the Kasen story though... what happened to Sumizome? I mean, wouldnt she have gone to the shogun and told her? So wouldnt Kuronushi have been more worried about her than the poem? Did he kill her and the story omits it?
thats just fiction made by ayato i think. possibly just omitted
@@ehe5669 I am not so sure about it. Mihoyo is very careful about what they include and omit... and Ayato is smart, he wouldnt just include that with only the intent to show how to get secret texts... there may be a continuation to the kasen story that wait untill we have more of Scaras story...
@@Sakuyamon its just an unnecessary detail. maybe kuronushi just threatened to end the sumizone poem arts (like the isshin bladesmithing arts) so sumizone couldn't risk it.
@@ehe5669 Nothing is an unnecissary detail in genshin. Remember the mushrooms? We thought those were just a joke and now we got a huge speaking and glowing shroom from Sumeru. Whats omitted will come back later somehow.
@@Sakuyamon it's just a stretch that they put so much lore on the kasen story when it didn't really happen at all, just creative metaphor for the actual events. Besides scaramouche confronting the kamisato clan has already been concluded.
