The part where the song repeats "Tee Orh Orh, Bei Lor Orh" translates roughly into "the sky is dark, it is about to rain", and this originates from an old chinese folk song that revolves around a family and their reaction when it is about to rain. This very catchphrase also inspired other derivative chinese songs with completely different scenarios and emotions, so it's quite interesting for people who understand chinese and keep up with their culture. If anyone is interested, paste "Tee Orh Orh, Bei Lor Orh" into a search engine and the top few results should be the songs the original catchphrase came from, and if you are interested in a derivative work, you can look up Stephanie Sun's Cloudy Day as well.
Shu is one of twelve aspects of a practically godlike being, with each one representing a traditional craft/artform - and in her case, it is indeed agriculture you've seen her brother Chong Yue in the Vernal Winds teaser, who represents martial arts, and her sister Ling in the Invitation to Wine teaser, who represents poetry
Definitely feels like they leaned a lot into the more future sounding sounds (which I adore because they still combine it with traditional instruments and it's so satisfying to listen to!!!) Thank you Cathy for another reaction and I can't wait for the animation breakdown!
Makes sense because compared to timeless crafts like paintings and poetry that leans to tradition and history (older/ancient painting tend to be valued more), agriculture as a craft that is valued heavily on its latest development (tractors, special seeds etc etc)
Oh yeah, that makes A LOT of sense! And not just the most high-tech agriculture, the modern techniques that got developed for harsher climates or environments with very little access to special equipment are also signs of advancement in the craft, ala Dave Brandt with agricultural conservation! These advancements have such effects on humanity, they're quite the reason why we're even here and have rest of this modern world now! @@Yukikaze.Arknights
All of the music tracks in Shu's event are amazing, I think it's become one of my favourite Arknights events because of the soundtrack alone (plus I love the characters designs, the story, and everything!) And nice video, it helped me appreciate this song even more
Here's one more song ruclips.net/video/MxZunU4q9Tw/видео.html the lobby theme of this event. The composer says it is a fusion of Breakbeat/Future bass/Traditional music. And some Dorian mode was added to present the topic of gods. Here's the composing procedure ruclips.net/video/8XY-i_52tds/видео.html
would like to listen to her event themes(Here a people sows battle theme 01 and 02, lobby theme and boss theme. even more of nice modern and traditional blending
Will you react to Ex Astris Launch PV? It has a great animation and song. There are two versions EN and Allindish which is a fictional language in game.
I don't know the dialects well at all but i heard it as equivalent to 'ye olde English'". I assume it's a dialect that feels very proper and traditional, not modern
@CatharsisYT hokkien is one of the more southern dialects which makes it more distinct from mandarin which is from the northernmost parts of china. and I believe it is also closer to older chinese than mandarin itself (not too certain) so your analysis is rather correct.
As others said, Hokkien (Fujian in Mandarin) is a southern "Min" language that has been less influenced by the conquest dynasties centered in the north - the Yuan (Mongol) and Qing (Manchu) dynasties. They are pretty different from "standard" Chinese, that are often unintelligible - comparable to pre-Norman English maybe?
in terms of ideas/suggestion any spots on the to do list in the near future for honkai starrail? iirc you did the short intro #1- but there is a kind of full version for it with the VAs "Interstellar Journey [TrailblazeREmix] - Honkai English VAs Cover EXTENDED ver." (smth like that) the intro song/animation #2 white knight one big song/lyrics "robin - If I Can Stop One Heart From Breaking" and much more currently thanks to the start of a new main story part/arc in the game... mfg Olli
You mentioned the CG animation, but I also really hope you take a look at the 2D animation they release to end the Spring Festival Gala. It’s only about 1:30 long and IMO that’s where they really cooked.
@@CatharsisYT Yeah, that's why I'd like to see your take on it. It wasn't actually officially released on yt, instead they aired it to cap off their annual Spring Festival Gala, which is essentially a film festival for Arknights fan creations. You can find it pretty easily on yt just by searching 'shu spring gala' or something similar.

thats part is hokkien
@@yuugiri1995ya, it is hokkien..
Shu is one of twelve aspects of a practically godlike being, with each one representing a traditional craft/artform - and in her case, it is indeed agriculture
you've seen her brother Chong Yue in the Vernal Winds teaser, who represents martial arts, and her sister Ling in the Invitation to Wine teaser, who represents poetry
and nian represents BEAN

you need to react to the whole ost of her event, its top tier
there's 2 battle ost 1 lobby ost and 1 boss ost, godly progressive blessing
The chorus part (tee o o) is basically poetry way of writing Storm Is Approaching.
So basically, Shu is sitting on a plastic chair and is motivated
All of the music tracks in Shu's event are amazing, I think it's become one of my favourite Arknights events because of the soundtrack alone (plus I love the characters designs, the story, and everything!)
And nice video, it helped me appreciate this song even more
The rice fields are flat yet fertile ✨
Bro is a genius for this 😂
Plant your seed, plant your seed, plant your seed🗿
I MUST PLANT MY FERTILE SEED IN SHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
@@momsaccount4033silly goose fertility doesn’t happen until the gametes me- sorry what
get rice get rice get rice

The song is so nicely mixed
This sounds so heavenly~

Yee it's amazing luckily he reacted to this first because he's gonna need some Moss Rice for the Ex Astris pv
Boy am I glad you did this first. Would absolutely love to see your take on the animation as well, but this song is one my my favorite AK tracks.
This song's sung in Hokkien! I'm glad they're doing more songs in specific regional dialects
I don't know the dialects well at all but i heard it as equivalent to 'ye olde English'". I assume it's a dialect that feels very proper and traditional, not modern

@@mqegg indeed, those southern dialects retained more old Chinese words and grammar than mandarin

Great song to just chill to while tending a rice field
Im gonna start something......
Day 1 of asking for Catharsis to react to Arknights "Rock The Night Away"
in terms of ideas/suggestion
any spots on the to do list in the near future for honkai starrail?
iirc you did the short intro #1- but there is a kind of full version for it with the VAs "Interstellar Journey [TrailblazeREmix] - Honkai English VAs Cover EXTENDED ver." (smth like that)
the intro song/animation #2 white knight
one big song/lyrics "robin - If I Can Stop One Heart From Breaking"
and much more currently thanks to the start of a new main story part/arc in the game...

this is traditional (Chinese/Taiwanes)

That's also my specialty but nobody even told me it existed smh 👀

Spoiler alert, the PV isn't as technical
