Yeah, like what? Man got fucking killed and still forgave his brother, and has spent his resurrection keeping the demon population of Ionia in check. What is she on about there lmao
Ahri isn't talking about literal demons here. She's referring to the figurative kind because Yone has never properly forgiven Yasuo.

He's put his issues to the side because he doesn't want to face them now.

@@EdenSorrow Yeah I know, but like, it's none of her fucking business if Yone still hadn't fully forgiven the dude who literally killed him?

The azakana hunting is basically a metaphor for Yone tirelessly running from his past and if he faced it maybe he could create a path of his own

I also think the interaction is actually a nice parallel to Yone's own with Riven where he says she needs to forgive herself otherwise the azakana will come for her. Yone has placed his own problems on the back burner and has, more or less, become hyperfixated on the azakana not only to save the lives of others but to discover what his own existence means that he's neglecting his own internal and emotional struggles so it's Ahri kind of going, "Hey you shouldn't forget yourself." or at least that's how I see it. Ahri herself probably also a knows bit about internal demons seeing as how she's struggled with guilt and a loss of humanity in regards to taking peoples life essence for hundreds of years and even accidentally killing her lover because of it.

Ahri consuming the essence and memories of her victims: "I would never let you suffer." Seraphine turning Skarner's uncle into a boombox: "Wanna hear their song?"
I always thought Wukong and ahri had some type of relation because I remember seeing on league's websites that they "had an interaction" but never really did. Also since they're both literally based off of chinese mythology I would think they would have some type of interaction.
Chinese probably but I'd wager she feels more Korean based? Eastern Asia has different interpretations of the Nine tailed fox, from the 九尾狐 (Chinese), Kumiho (Korean) and Kitsune (Japanese), all based from the same Chinese mythology with slight cultural variations. The base Chinese version is more obviously devious and evil.
I love how despite her feeling a lot more dreamy and friendly, she also feels a lot more mature rn. The somber undertone lacing the super obvious succubus vibes are a thing of the past, just like her lore.

@@berilsevvalbekret772 a former monster stuck in the irony of needing to murder (a dehumanizing act) to become more human vs le sad because dead bf. more words does not mean more depth. her new lore is just longer. and more generic.
@@bottomlefto her dead boyfriend doesn’t take anything away from the rest of her lore, though, just adds to it. it’s her first experience with her powers actively hurting somebody that she holds dear; it’s devastating to her, and rips away the only source of love that she had, the only thing that told her that she was NOT a monster. it’s a very nice addition, at least in my opinion
@@piimco933 what "addition", they completely retconned who she was, like varus, who was a grieving widower and father, turned into 2 dudes 1 darkin. her old lore has her as a literal fox, who desired to be human, given human form and intellect via magic of the rune wars. smarter, more beautiful, but still a predator at heart, she hunted humans via seducing them, so they approached her of their own volition, but as her humanity grew, it became a conflict between her killing instinct and growing conscience, and so she joins the league in hoping the mages there can turn her fully human without further permanent loss of life and reconciling it with her desire to kill. this has depth, irony in that her path to being human is to commit inhuman acts but now only realizes it, and uniqueness that shows in her personality as a seductive femme fatale archetype. new lore has her as a retconned-in race that didn't need to exist because there is no singular trait that defines vastaya, and the lore itself treats different kinds as separate species anyway, so this vastaya blanket term serves no narrative purpose other than to sound exotic. and her arc is basically 'le dead bf, le sad, but world pretty, so le happy now', like every self-assured generic fantasy character out there, and basically every new champion in lol.
im hoping for the popstar ahri to say "when i pull up you know it's a shutdown" (blackpink reference) whenever she got a shutdown that would've been nice but overall the interactions are done well i'll be missing the old ones though especially the "should i make your pulse rise or stop"
I don´t hate it much, as this is her after the Ruined King Game. But in the whole cast of League of Legends females, this just changed her character into every good girl riot ever released, a dime a dozen...kinda took away what differentiated her in my opinion.
i agreee. the flirtatious edge in her voice is gone, she sounds very, very generic. Plus what she's saying is just retrod ground of 'confident but generally nice woman character'
What? Her whole point was the fact that she had empathy for her victims. She was never going to be an Eve n.2. And because you have stated this who exactly would you compare Ahri’s personality to? Because I’m honestly interested in who’s personalities are similar to.
in this case becoming different makes her a better character tbh, seductress ahri missed what the femme fatal trope usually aspires to have, which is being cunning and the heavy burden of loss
This ASU is the worst murder they have ever done of a League character. Ruined King Ahri is someone that learns that she can get comfortable or excited about things but she still needs to keep in check as she's someone that literally needs to kill others (most of the time innocent) people to stay alive. She lives on charming people and brutally murdering them to siphon their life essence. This is just a kooky girl with zero personality. Ahri is completely dead in terms of in game representation.
Well if you played Ruined King they drop hints about them falling in love with each other, and i think one developer said in one of necrit videos that they in fact are canonically in love (but not together).
@@brandonknight7773 let's see seduce sexy lady generic attractive girl with just talking charming shit shit old lore lmao this new one follow the ruined king game she's actually very good character there
I really don't get why people love this so much but gave flack to Akali's VO change. I understand that Akali was just getting a different actress but even so they do the same thing here. She has overacted lines that come off more like a generic anime character. Even the Ruined King game kept the sultry demeanor without all the overdone sex appeal. Don't get me wrong, the interactions themselves are pretty good, and I'm glad she has real person dialogue, but she could have real person dialogue while sounding like the character she has always been. You could have convinced me these were for the Spirit Blossom skin, because that is supposed to be a playful fox in a human form, but that's not what normal Ahri is. Just like the problems with Akali, the way she says the lines feels off. I hate to bring up The Ruined King game again but people saying this is the next evolution don't understand that it was already done there, and done better. Honestly, it's a pretty simple fix, just have Laura Post say the lines differently. However, I'm sure she will be busy, and I don't see anyone else having the same problem as me. It hurts a little knowing that my main of nine years (ironic) is not going to get the same justice. And just as clarification, the think the voice actress did a great job, and the writers have a great understanding of the character, but the direction feels like the whole "make all the skins sound the same" stunt despite the fact that all the skins are canonically different.
I love how a lot of her interactions have changed especially due to the Ruined King game. You can see how she feels with the characters you play there.

her old lore has her as a literal fox, who desired to be human, given human form and intellect via magic of the rune wars. smarter, more beautiful, but still a predator at heart, she hunted humans via seducing them, so they approached her of their own volition, but as her humanity grew, it became a conflict between her killing instinct and growing conscience, and so she joins the league in hoping the mages there can turn her fully human without further permanent loss of life and reconciling it with her desire to kill. this has depth, irony in that her path to being human is to commit inhuman acts but now only realizes it, and uniqueness that shows in her personality as a seductive femme fatale archetype.
new lore has her as a retconned-in race that didn't need to exist because there is no singular trait that defines vastaya, and the lore itself treats different kinds as separate species anyway, so this vastaya blanket term serves no narrative purpose other than to sound exotic. and her arc is basically 'le dead bf, le sad, but world pretty, so le happy now', like every self-assured generic fantasy character out there, and basically every new champion in lol.
So glad they kept Laura Post.
she.. she sound so happy...
Okay Sumire Yoshizawa
There is more detail in her ears than in Zilean, Gragas and Corki together
inside every man is a katarina
If this isn't enough reason to have more ASUs in the future then I don't know what else would convince Riot anymore.
Bruh i love this fox even more 🥺❤️🦊❤️😳
im hoping for the popstar ahri to say "when i pull up you know it's a shutdown" (blackpink reference) whenever she got a shutdown
that would've been nice but overall the interactions are done well
i'll be missing the old ones though especially the "should i make your pulse rise or stop"
I miss the hasagi moment
I don´t hate it much, as this is her after the Ruined King Game. But in the whole cast of League of Legends females, this just changed her character into every good girl riot ever released, a dime a dozen...kinda took away what differentiated her in my opinion.
Before she was a the average league hoar
i agreee. the flirtatious edge in her voice is gone, she sounds very, very generic. Plus what she's saying is just retrod ground of 'confident but generally nice woman character'
What? Her whole point was the fact that she had empathy for her victims. She was never going to be an Eve n.2. And because you have stated this who exactly would you compare Ahri’s personality to? Because I’m honestly interested in who’s personalities are similar to.
in this case becoming different makes her a better character tbh, seductress ahri missed what the femme fatal trope usually aspires to have, which is being cunning and the heavy burden of loss
This ASU is the worst murder they have ever done of a League character. Ruined King Ahri is someone that learns that she can get comfortable or excited about things but she still needs to keep in check as she's someone that literally needs to kill others (most of the time innocent) people to stay alive. She lives on charming people and brutally murdering them to siphon their life essence.
This is just a kooky girl with zero personality. Ahri is completely dead in terms of in game representation.
I like this more mature ahri.
Being mature is not necessarily about being somber and serious all the time.
we love the character development.
I wish Captain Fortune will also get her ASU like her and Caitlyn
Yes please and making Captain her normal look and "Miss Fortune" a skin... She's Captain Fortune in the lore after all
1:45 Does she means Star Guardian skin line? 🤔
3:09 wait Ahri's immortal?
She has a long life span
she eats the lifespan of whoever she has feelings for
Her lore is just like her passive. When she kills an champion, she gains hp
Vastaya are long-lived, and sustain themselves through magical energy in the environment.
She is a vestaya like all vestaya as long as the world has sufficent magic she won't die of old age
They updated the fox waifu's personality too, damn
Man misfortune needs this at some point but I know riot games said they had a budget but maybe sometime in the future
2:15 Rito thought they were being slick, but I did not miss that emphasis.
I did, what is it?
I love the references to her universe stories
3:00 Christ, she did the "Well that happened" cliché
...
Fine, she's cute, she gets one.
Oh god, she’s giving me tooth decay
SO PRETTY
Im happy about the Ahri x Yasuo interaction especially after the ruined king game. I hope they explore their relationship more in future content
Same. Their chemistry's really great, and I hope we get to see more of it.
Man, I thought that Yasuo X Ahri "fanfic" I read long ago was a far reach for a ship... well look at what we have now..
Well if you played Ruined King they drop hints about them falling in love with each other, and i think one developer said in one of necrit videos that they in fact are canonically in love (but not together).
The only real ship is Ahri x Sona
@@Kyuteiru hell nah it's jhin x Sona😈
She even has an interaction with Evelynn...
Ahri lines hit different
Love seeing her to be more expressive!!! Tho I will miss Ahri being more stiff in her animations
Seem like Ahri happy when she meet Yasuo!😂
Man this game is telling me to play again since they finally updated her
the voice sounds so robotic.
Sounds like static whenever she speaks.
I never expected her to be so nice.
she shouldn't be. just riot fking with her character and turning her into generic word filler story
@@wentaoguan oh than what personality was she supposed to have?
@@brandonknight7773 let's see seduce sexy lady generic attractive girl with just talking charming shit shit old lore lmao this new one follow the ruined king game she's actually very good character there
I love Kracc!
Old voice lines are better than the new ones!
I show you what I made of ...... Ahhhhhh the song of her
The fact that she doesn't have a reply to Evelynn's taunt makes me a little disappointed
I really don't get why people love this so much but gave flack to Akali's VO change. I understand that Akali was just getting a different actress but even so they do the same thing here. She has overacted lines that come off more like a generic anime character. Even the Ruined King game kept the sultry demeanor without all the overdone sex appeal. Don't get me wrong, the interactions themselves are pretty good, and I'm glad she has real person dialogue, but she could have real person dialogue while sounding like the character she has always been. You could have convinced me these were for the Spirit Blossom skin, because that is supposed to be a playful fox in a human form, but that's not what normal Ahri is. Just like the problems with Akali, the way she says the lines feels off. I hate to bring up The Ruined King game again but people saying this is the next evolution don't understand that it was already done there, and done better. Honestly, it's a pretty simple fix, just have Laura Post say the lines differently. However, I'm sure she will be busy, and I don't see anyone else having the same problem as me. It hurts a little knowing that my main of nine years (ironic) is not going to get the same justice. And just as clarification, the think the voice actress did a great job, and the writers have a great understanding of the character, but the direction feels like the whole "make all the skins sound the same" stunt despite the fact that all the skins are canonically different.
