In Final Lesson, Kiana lost someone dear to her. She couldn't even attempt to stop it.
In Lament of the Fallen, she lost someone dear to her again. And even with all her power, could do nothing yet again. This would be the last time she lost someone.
In Shattered Samsara, she nearly lost something dear to her yet again. And this time, she ordered Fate to give back what she lost. and fate obliged.
In Everlasting Flame, Kiana looked at all she stood to lose. And she said no. And she fought for her friends, for her loved ones. She fought for all that was beautiful in the world. And she won.
Breathtaking wordplay here.
Kiana and Welt have much in common, that's why I like them both
The way you worded that just straight up made me cry again 😭
Very well said.
Very proud of our Kiana, as well as the rest of the girls.
pls add the graduation one
Moon halo felt like a conclusion to Kiana's journey
Da Capo felt like a goodbye
The feel of each song is just a work of art
pretty much it
Mhm 🥺
maybe in part 2 of the story she will make a comeback? Or not? We will never know
But hey, shes always used in events
@@alyssongabriel5116 She will most likely come back in APHO part 3
Da capo means "from the beginning" so, the beginning of a new journey, saying goodbye to the previous one
"Turn into a moon that always tells the warmth and brightness of the sun" is one of my favourite lyrics of all time.
Kiana is the moon goddess.
Himeko is the sun goodess.
I read your comment at the exact moment
They were already foreshadowing a lot of stuff there
Himiko is the sun who poured her all into kiana which the moon reflects the sunlight
Why is everyone explaining the context? We fucking know.
"Turn into a moon that always tells the warmth and brightness of the sun" is such a wonderful analogy for love. People tend to reflect the love the people in their lives given them.
i never thought abt this until you pointed it out and this made me tear up wtf /pos
oh yeah it does... huh
need me more anglish shenanigans
"I thought I were no more than a bystander 'till I felt touch so real" - Mei (Nagazora, first meeting with Kiana)
"I will no longer be a transient when I see smiles with tears" - Bronya (St. Freya)
"If I have never known the sore of farewell and pain of sacrifices" - Kiana (St. Freya)
After 2nd chorus:
"I will never go" - Nightglow
"There's a way back home" - Rubia
"Brighter than tomorrow and yesterday" - Starfall
"A Pair of wings for me, at this moment" - Cyberangel
"Unfold this pair of wings for me again." - Cyberangel
This entire song wraps up so many threads from the previous songs. Everyone Kiana has touched in her journey.
ig the first lyric relates to fu hua more in this situation
Kiana said the same thing, after grabbing the sword, that Himeko said to Herrscher of the Void in Final lesson.
That part had me skip a beat actually
the combat throughout the end of the video is also parallel to the fight in final lesson if you look closely
@@imagvnarys pretty much raised sword. destroying opponents attacks with sheer fcking Fire.
@@sundenjager6425 huh
Everlasting Flames is the Triumphant Mirror of Final Lesson.
The fact that 3 Voice Actors of the characters sing it, and actually cried while recording it, just shows how much they are invested in this project. Absolute banger of a song. Respect for MiHoyo for keep giving us good OSTs. Everlasting Flames is best what MiHoyo ever produced in my opinion.
This , Da Capo and Regression are absolute masterpieces.
Don't forget about nightglow, make it The four horsemen of tears
@@dwianggaraputra add rubia
Eh, honestly, can you name a single non-masterpiece vocal song in honkai? Even all-forgotten Millenium Feather is such a unique take on chinese themed rock...
I think every vocal song is Honkai is good. But if we were to narrow it down, then I agree with you. Personally I would add oracle and nightglow.
Kiana finally stopped running from her freinds and became exactly what himeko always knew what she would be
The moon whose light comes from the sun (himeko) but guides those lost in the dark
And light the Earth (Mei) to overcome all the traumas cause the moon and the Earth always gonna be link
"A moon that always tells the warmth and brightness of the sun"
"A shooting star that briefly shines and warms up every heart"
These lines in the lyrics just gives me goosebumps everytime and made me glad I played this game
Everlasting flames never fails to make me cry like a baby. That moment when Himeko shows herself to Kiana one final time feels like Kiana has finally found closure with Himeko's death.
Fun fact: when Kiana appears through the flames shouting right after the explosion, the singer keeps shouting a second longer connecting the song with the animation.
What do you mean ? None of the singers is her voice actress. The singers are Chalili, Tetracalyx and Hanser. Her VAs are Rie Kugimiya and Dian Tao. Or did i misunderstand what you said ?
@@Pihnes I think he's talking about the Chinese VAs
@@leviv7668 Dian Tao is her chinese va
@@Pihnes He probably just mixed facts a bit, can happen, What he probably wanted to say is that it is same singer who performed Reburn which is connected to Kiana and technically first song for playable timeline
@@Pihnes He's a little mistaken but not entirely off. Chalili was the singer for the lyrical version of Reburn which is one of Kiana's themes.
this song and its accompanying animation is the peak of the story in honkai. as we transition to another ark, and into the APHO stories i dont think they will ever resonate as much as kiana's story did for both us the fans and the creators.
mihoyo has loved kiana since their first game all the way back, and she has been the protagonist in the other entries as well, this is her story that she makes right, that doesnt end in pure tragedy.
and it is beautiful
Honestly personally *#*SPOILERS FOR APHO*#*

At the end of apho 1 it really hit me but I guess it more so hit me because of ptsd and reminded me of himeko from Adam(apho protag) just breaking the barriers of his sword to go honkai critical just so that he could save mei but then it hit me more when we just see him all graying and all the honkai around his neck and just him holding mei after he defeated the "world" enemy. And then chap 1 just fading to black and hearing Carole trying not to cry and trying to bring back the both of them and protecting them from the onslaught of sky people that were coming.
@@everettjoseph6189 of course everyone has their own places and moments that make them love honkai, but i feel as if the company put their all into this moment, and the song is one of their best, yet one of their most simple
2:15
Nightglow: Never let you go
Moon Halo: I will never go
Rubia: Waiting for the one to find the way back home
Moon Halo: There is a way back home
Starfall: I want no tomorrow or yesterday
Moon Halo: Brighter than tomorrow and yesterday
Kiana made a promise at the start of her journey to protect all the things that are beautifull, to shape this wretched world into what they always wanted!
"May all the beauty be blessed"-Moon Halo
(Definetly the journey of all time :´) )

They three performing this live at the end of the first concert knowing they are their VAs hits sooooooo hard
I've read that during their record of the song, the CN VAs really struggled to hold their tears back because of how emotional it was...
Even Herrscher of Dominance's CN VA cried watching this animation during her stream, despite she's the one voiced the villain in it.
@@MarineRX179 she cries on everything just like me, she feels and understands ❤️
@@Kaizelotisn’t it only 1 of their vas, Hanser?
Every single one of HI3's animations are special... but being Kiana is ultimately the protagonist (while Bronya and Mei are for the most part deuteragonists), there's just something extra special about Everlasting Flames. This one closes out the arc in which Kiana undergoes her most significant character growth, growth necessary for what ultimately happens in Graduation Trip. Plus, while she ultimately has to say goodbye to Himeko, she still lives on inside of Kiana - and that is so apparent from Everlasting Flames and the Herrscher of Flamescion suit. Honestly, you should watch Final Lesson and Everlasting Flames together - just about everything Kiana does, and even the things she says, in Everlasting Flames are the things that Himeko said to Kiana in Final Lesson. Two years later and this one still hits the feels.
I think letting go of Himeko is the most important part (and lesson) of this arc because it's been weighing so much on Kiana's soul (and players' as well tbh) for so long. Everyone needed closure so badly so no wonder it still hits so hard.
The long awaited Moon Halo, thank you Marco!
Hope you enjoyed it!
@@MarcoMeatball Certainly did man, keep it up! Hoping to see some Honkai Starrail aswell 👀
This song has a very special place in my heart. Moon Halo became the inspiratiin of my eulogy to my late grandfather whom I loved so much in which I never seen for 26 years and still to this day I miss him terribly. It goes to show Honkai's relatability is truly profound and impactful.
Look at him! He started watching videos randomly and now he is a full invested Kanchou. Give this man a Hyperion, he earn it!
" May all the beauty be bless " such a simple sentence yet so meaningful
Kiana fighting in _Everlasting Flames_ directly reflects Himeko fighting in _Final Lesson_ . In addition, some of the lyrics in _Moon-Halo_ , which also became an anthem for players, answer lyrics from previous songs. As Kiana truly becomes the Flame Scion, a whole story arc truly comes to a close.
The Legion Herrscher of Domination that Kiana fights is a personification of depression. Not only is it very pervasive, but it is also relentless, throwing wave after wave of dark thoughts and impulses at those who have it. Only with friends and family to support you can you hope to pull through, by being even more relentless, and yet open and flexible, than the depression itself. And yet, it is always with you after, waiting for you to slip up. Fighting depression isn't a one-off, it's a process, and you have to be okay with that or you can't keep winning.
Didn't noticed the reference to the other 3 Honkai songs? hear (and read) again from 2:14
...
"I will never go" is a reference to the "Never let you go" phrase from "Nightglow" the song from "Final Lesson" short.
"There's a way back home" is a reference to "To find a way back home" phrase from "Rubia" from "Shattered Samsara" short.
"Brigther than tomorrow and yesterday" is a reference to "I want no tomorrow or yesterday" phrase from "Starfall" from "Meteoric Salvation" short.
Even the melody switch to match the respective songs. Thats what I call care for details.
...
There are more "easter eggs" hidden inside the lyrics, but these are the most noticiable.
No matter how many times I listen to this series of songs, I always get choked up. Friggin' Pavlov's Tears. Hoyo has me trained to cry on command...
I didn't get a minute in and teared up....First time I've cried since I first saw graduation trip
Moon Halo represents Kiana finally relying on her friends to overcome the impossible. She always tried to stand alone in front of adversaries always fighting on her own because she doesn't want anybody else to hurt because of that. But she learnt that not everything can be solved by one person.
In other stories power of friendship is cringe but in honkai power of friendship is deserved after everything they went through together
"Oh my gosh its Bronya and Fu Hua singing to her, thats way worse!"
Welcome to Honkai
Holy balls, I've never heard anything from Honkai before. That goes HARD! What absolutely breathtaking composition, I love how you can INSTANTLY feel the story from it, you don't need to know anything at all about the game or the world this piece comes from, you can hear the story in the movement of the song.
Stunning doesn't even begin to describe this.
Songs are beautiful but it always tears me up. The things you catch just by listening is astonishing.
Not part of the song but from the short itself:
Kiana says the same sentences to the Herrscher of Dominance as Himeko said to Kiana/Herrscher of the Void:
"Are you done? I guess is my turn. Hope you don't mind."
The whole short is like passing the baton from teacher to pupil.
Some of the lyrics in Moon Halo call back to lyrics in other songs along Kiana's journey. The original lyric and the Moon Halo callback:
Never let you go --> I will never go
Waiting for the one to find the way back home --> There's a way back home
I want no tomorrow or yesterday --> Brighter than tomorrow and yesterday
The song is a masterpiece to go along with a masterpiece of a story and my favorite character of all time.
This is one of the reason i love honkai!
Oh da capo is the answer to moonhalo
May all the beauty be bless ---> May you the beauty of this world, alway shine
You know Hoyo did well if Marco was literally left speechless
Hoyo be makin everyone cry
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES FINALLY. MoonHalo for most of players is a graduation ceremony as in Nightglow is a welcome to the world of HI3rd. Yes it is way more depressing. Edit: Peak gaming right here, peak gameplay, peak story, peak animations. Also don't forget in the 1st HI3rd concert, the singers (bronya and fu hua) sang this *to* the main voice (kiana) trully beautifull performance
Y'know, it's like 7:30am early in the morning rn where I am, and I guess I could start my day being sad and depressed. Thanx
Same.
A year ago I finally managed to play this entire arc in around one sitting. While I had braced myself for the waterworks that veteran players tend to joke about and had already heard this song out of context, finally experiencing this piece at this point of the game was such a powerful emotional catharsis that made me respect all the love and strong shared feelings Everlasting Flames & Moon Halo have been experienced by so many people. Such beautifully written lyrics.
Those feelings are real. The voice actors (especially CN Kiana’s & Himeko’s) felt it, the singers did as well, the very first audience who watched the released animation live shed tears at the Bilibili expo it aired felt it (you can find footage of them wiping their tears and cheering when it aired), a fan who was at the hospital wrote to the writers their gratitude to allowing this anthem of hope triumphing loss and despair to exist as they faced their own. It’s such a powerful ballad to hope and crystalizes the core message of HI3’s “fighting for all the beauty in this world”.
Weeks earlier before playing this arc, I had suddenly lost an artist friend from college I looked up to, a high fever burned his brilliant life away. I did what I could to hold a brave front in honor of the legacy this friend left for me and our college friends who were inspired to do their best work with the support of someone like him. Honkai’s characters have all faced losses of some sort and it has shaped them to choose different things they value due to it and thus drives what they do next and that’s probably why I could connect with them. Enter this moment. I didn’t expect how much this story and this song would become very healing at a time I likely needed to hear it the most.
It helps that shortly before this sequence plays out, the Honkai writers managed to actually make me let loose my tears of suppressed grief when Kiana gets to meet with a certain someone she looked up to and who simply said “saying goodbye to the past is the first step towards the future” on top of other several, beautifully healing words before Kiana makes her triumphant victory against the Legion Herrscherr who thrived off despair. A beautiful story of moving on. What a triumphant climax to this story arc.
The way this song calls back to that phrase as well as other meaningful moments from previous songs as this highlight of Kiana’s journey works so well because of what was set before it. I love it when video game music gets to do this to allow a key moment to soar higher and let it all out. Thank you for finally reacting to this, Marco!
what a lot of people look over is that everlasting flames is a mirror to final lesson
Everlasting Flame is my favorite animation to come from Honkai Impact 3rd. This animation coupled with the scene directly prior where Kiana says her final farewell to Himeko always makes me tear up. Kiana has had so much character growth throughout the series and this is where she really "graduates" to become a more mature adult.
Fun Fact: This song was sung by the voice actors for Kiana, Mei, and Bronya
Man, this song and Da Capo will always have a special spot in my heart. Having beaten the main story and knowing the context they're used in, these songs almost make me cry every. single. time. i. listen. to. them!
and that's saying a lot too, because I haven't truly cried in a long time
Ah hell ive watched/listened to this easily over a 100 times and it still makes me tear up but that goes to show how powerful and beautiful this song is.
the most savage thing about any of the major songs from Honkai 3rd.
The Context.
It will absolutely crush you every time.
Little fun tidbits, Hanser (one of the singer) is Bronya's CN VA. Marco never cease to amaze me
The pain and happiness that emanates from Moon Halo is tied to both Kiana's journey and our journey with her as the Captain. It's doubly reinforced by the echoing of past songs, being a reply and succession to all the pleas and hopes that Honkai World Diva, Starfall, Nightglow, and Rubia contain, and therein all the emotion that Mei, HImeko, Fu Hua and Kiana show towards Kiana's duty as a Valkyrie. It is a resolution to all her loved ones that she will be the Moon to guide those in this dark night, that she will never leave Himeko behind, that she will find a better future for Fu Hua, and to turn Mei's lament into a carol. This statement of duty is different from her previous resolutions that were fueled by depression and the seeming need of self sacrifice, it's fueled by a want to preserve the happiness and joy, what little there might be left in this nearly broken world. The lyrics echoing past songs hits doubly hard as the animation doubles that of Himeko in Final Lesson, and by the end of the first part of the story, it's showcased that Kiana knows that this resolution might not end in precisely the same way, but it will also echo that of Himeko's end.
This song and animation, this arc in a whole took me through a gloom tunnel. Impressive analysis as always, Marco. Love seeing you resonate with the song.
💓
brb gotta go grab some tissues.
Holy shit, that was bleak. I wandered in with zero context and could immediately feel the sadness... which was before you showed us the video. I didn't have to understand any of the words to know just how depressing that was. Very emotional and intense video. Now if you will excuse me, I'm going to go cry.
I honestly believe it was a peak of honkai.
The song is special and became even more when the war started. Even though we call it a depression, for me it feels more like hope - you finally accept state of things no matter how bad they're and just continue striving to the better place. Don't really believe I'll be able to survive till the end. And yet, thanks to the stories of honkai and pgr, there's still a hope that maybe, just maybe it won't be worthless. I might be the highest price we will ever pay. And yet...
May all the beauty be blessed.
I'll always love this song and this game. Everything about Kiana's journey has made me feel something, good and bad.
I was stuck in a deep depression for so many years, and then I decided to try out Honkai Impact 3rd. I won't lie and say it magically made everything better, but it helped me see a lot of things, things I needed to see and hear to get myself out of my own mind.
Thank you, Kiana, for protecting the beauty of this world.
(Can't wait to see your future Honkai content!
Finally, I've been waiting for this ever since I found your channel, now you see why this song was sooo requested. It actually resonates with a lot of people, especially those who've played the game foor a long time, it's like the conclusion of her character development arc, and even though Da Capo is the end of part 1 Moon Halo is the culmination of everything that happened to Kiana thus far.
My favorite part of th son is actually one that you didn't mention, "A shoulder for the past let out the cries imprisioned for so long", I think we all need that sometimes.
This song and Animation is just hope for me. In 2020-2021 was the most depressing year for me welp for most of people too i think... Everyday there's always a suicidal thoughts and self depreciation. Im still in college and my paper meet bottleneck... Frustrated... I start to smoking... But it lead to even depression... Until this animation short come. It like speak to me personally the lyric... The dialogue in the animation gave me strength to rise back and finish it all... Giving up isnt an option, afterall... Im an Idiot and an idiot... Never give up
May The Fire Of Hopes Guides us All
I was watching this on lunch break and oh boy... It is hard to eat my lunch while tear dropping every single time
ik it’s coming every damn time i watch this animation, but still everytime Himeko appears towards the end i burst into tears 😭😭 this song is so so good and the reason i decided to start playing honkai impact 3rd 💖 im so glad you finally shared your viewing experience of Moon Halo with us Marco! and i can’t wait to see you progress in game to this point of the story and beyond!! ✨💖
A game ended up giving characters infinitely more character development in a beautiful and fulfilling way, Honkai Impact is so beautiful, not because its visually pleasing, but the story blloms like a beautiful flower that you have invested so much time into, it makes it satisfying to see, I would argue this story is better that 90% of anime and I would not complain if Honkai Impact was adapted into a full fledged anime with minimal changes to the story.
Marco you gotta experience the story man! If you can't get around to playing, watching a walkthrough works too! Love hearing you talk about the songs, really brings out knew ways to interpret them. Awesome!
Wow, this made me cry and I know nothing about this game. Amazing
My fav game and Marco combined? I feel absolutely blessed, thank you for all the amazing vids ♥
Yes i've been waiting for this song to be review aaah im so glad you got around to it since i think it's my favorite song in the series
My ears... have been blessed. And I am in tears
Been waiting for this. Thank you for making me cry again🥲🙏
"That is way worse than I thought" pretty much sums yup Depression Impact
This July this song will be 2 years old. No matter how many times I watch, I always burst into tears. I've pretty much played this game since global launch I've been with Kiana since the beginning, to watch her grow into who she was when this launched, brought tears to my eyes. May all the Beauty be Blessed.
Yeah, Moon Halo will always spark a tear in my eyes. Guess the depression in this piece is so strong that no matter how strong you are you will be afflicted by it's pain.
Thank you for reacting to it, Marco. 🙏
You cannot believe the amount of tears shed by the fandom when the story update for this dropped, throughout the game you witness all of kiana's trials and tribulations and this felt like such a triumphant moment, like all the suffering she's been through has made her such a beautifully strong person. I started getting goosebumps when i realized the singers for this song were all singers for the individual character songs for her friends too so you could really feel that all of kiana's friends stood behind her
Finished chapter 25 tonight, I could finally come back and watch this! Such a gorgeous piece of music, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I cried first time when i watched this directly in game, i cried many times when i watched on youtube, i cried even now because it really hits you hard, this song is so deep, it's so sad but also full of hope, it's so beautiful
It doesn't matter how many times I watch this, I always end up crying with this cinematic.
Lezz goo! Finally, Moon halo! Thanks Marco!! Can't wait to see more of your honkai impact journey. o7
Moon Halo is such a powerful song that feels fulfilling and emotional. Thank you for reacting to this song Opera Uncle. I do hope you get to this part of the story in the game.
Fun Fact: if you have played Honkai Star Rail, you can find HI3 Himeko's broken sword. And when you use HSR Himeko to interact with the sword it will have an extended dialogue.
"She was reborn in the fire, She was smiling in the fire."
Which, for me, is a reference to this animation Everlasting Flame.
Another Fun fact: added layers for this song.
The song was performed by Tetracalyx, Hanser and Chalili.
How is this related?
Chalili sang Reburn, the theme used in the first animation that featuring Kiana.
Hanser is Bronya' CN VA
Tetracalyx is a long time composed for Hoyo, also originally voiced Raiden Mei in the CN dub.
Moon Halo will Always bring me to tears.
You know you’ve watched this animation too much when you know all the lines even without subtitles
no matter how many times I watched Everlasting Flame, it still makes me cry
This song marks the end of Kiana’s journey and the day we say goodbye to Himeko for good. It’s fulfilling and inspiring but sad at the same time.
aaaaaaaaa I was waiting for this. Idk if it's just because it's raining but this added to my chills...despite having listened to it many times. Gosh I love their music
"It's my turn now, hope you don't mind", Kiana requote Himeko during when Himeko fought against possessed Kiana.
This game music is just incredible. As someone who hasn't really felt the pain of losing someone close to me, It still made me feel loads of emotions. And that is because, music can be a way to communicate in a way. Even if i didn't understood every of the lyrics of the song, there was still that message that was conveyed and that reached to my heart. That is what i call a masterpiece in Video game music.
I really love the music behind some of the trailers for Honkai Impact 3rd. It would be super cool to see you stream or react to some of the trailers, especially the most recent ones! Thank you for this video and I'm looking forward to whatever you decide to do next with the Honkai Impact 3rd music!
Noted!
He can just tell you the entire lore by listening to songs
I've awaited this for sooo long 😸😸
Thank you Marco, for keeping this beautiful game alive!! There is hardly anyone else who is passionate about this game on RUclips. I am so happy i found your channel! 😄
Glad you enjoy it!
Never did I ever thought you will go through this game's music as deep and as far as you have, thanks for the vid as always!
Glad you enjoy it!
"She was reborn in the fire, she was smiling in the fire."
This part of the story still gets me sometimes yet it also gives me hope, couse that's what this is about as well, as the patch title of when this released was name: Inherit the Flame. It fits SO well with everything else it warms the heart.
Finally. I'm actually watching this with my great great grandkids.
Thank you marco for the analysis this song means lot to me as well as the story of kiana so iam really happy see your reaction in it.
My pleasure!!
Oh, I have been waiting for this one!
Gosh it gets me emotional every time. May all the beauty be blessed
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO
Your first impression of the song was very impressive you literally nailed it. You usually get MOST things correct but this time you got everything even without the context. 😅
Been waiting for this one foreveeeeeeer
Thank you so much for covering Moon Halo, Marco. By far, my favorite moment in the MC's development.
My favorite theme from honkai and my favorite animated short ever I was looking forward for this video!!
This theme is so emotional for me... Its like you see the story of Kiana to be a silly girl to become one of the strongest character in personality and strength... The feels and goosebumps..
Also you see what you can accomplish with the help of your friends and what friendship is cappable of
Oh my, I am glad that you've reacted to this, it's one of the most beautiful pieces that Mihoyo / Hoyoverse has created~ 💙🦋
my first time watching that video i cried when i saw the image of Himeko. I don't even play Honkai Impact but their cutscenes and music is so good that I can feel it
One thing I love about your reaction videos is that it's like watching everything for the first time again.
The magic of Honkai Impact, is that you can see this scene, or other like Final Lesson, alone without knowing ANYTHING about the HI story, and you will connect with the characters and their feelings the same that if you know it.
When you see Everlasting Flames, or heard Moon Halo, after knowing Final Lesson, Lament of the Fallen and Shattered Samsara, your feelings simply collapse and explode.
Imagine the ones that played the history from the begining, and reach this scene for the first time...
Video one hour ago - full beard
Live stream for last 2 hours - short beard
Are you a wizard?
Yes
It's amazing that I can never stop crying every time I see this animated beauty🥲
I'm so happy you finally got to Moon Halo! This is probably my favorite song from Hi3, and it's so beautiful how it captures Kiana's arc. It pays homage to previous animations and songs while moving past it just like Kiana did. It genuinely was super moving seeing this for the first time as we finally witnessed the climax of Kiana's development. Just an amazing song that perfectly encapsulates the story of Honkai and Kiana
It always feels good to see our tuna grow up. The fullness in my heart is so overwhelming.
I still tear up when I see this, so many emotions and so powerful.
*YES, FINALLY! THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!*
Idk if you noticed, but starting 8:22, Kianna's fight against HoD started mirroring Himeko's fight with HoV. From Kianna reiterating Himeko's line before she started finally attacking, to after her transformation to HoFS where her "meteor strike" also mirrored Himeko's
So it really was as if Himeko was reborn through Kianna in this moment 🥲
Ever since i came back to honkai after abandoning it in 2017 i've been really enjoying reading the story and when i reached this part i cried pretty hard it was honestly so beautiful to see kiana mature and grow up and now seeing this again with your reaction while you explain what it means it's made me tear up so much more and know honestly i can't help but think "i can't wait to see what happens next"
With a regular song, you just watch it and be done with it
With a great song, you pause to appreciate how good it is
With this song, you simply forget to pause because how beautiful it is!!! To interrupt it would be wrong.
