    Since this is Otto's final departure, i want to give him a proper closure and tribute by clearing some misconceptions. Theres quite a number of people out there that thinks hes doing all these just for Kallen's "love". Thats just not right. It started as a meme but people joined the bandwagon without context and took it seriously, spreading it like wildfire. In order to understand his motive, u have to put urself in his shoes and look at his past. This animation becomes way more emotional and meaningful if u truly understand him.
    Otto was bornt and expected to be the next heir of the Apocalypse family. However, the heir was handed over to his brother cuz he was physically weak and naive as a child. Instead of exhibiting characteristics of a noble warrior and leader, he wanted to be an inventor but nobody believed in him. As an Apocalypse, he was a disgrace to the family and shunned. One day, while he was being shunned by his older brother, a girl named Kallen from the Kaslana family, helped him and believed that he would become a great inventor in the future. She was the only one who believed in him. They talked and quickly became friends. They spent a lot of time together as they grow older. Otto gained self-confidence that he isnt useless and unwanted by being around her. He even proved that he was a great inventor by inventing a cure for the Black Death disease that was running rampant in his time. This leads to him gaining the trust and respect from the public.
    Some times later, he gave a present to Kallen as a token of gratitude, the Sixth Serenade. Otto really admired Kallen as his saviour. Without her, he wouldnt be where he is at now. To him, the world was a cruel place and humanity are of barbaric species but Kallen was the beacon of hope for humanity. Heroic and caring, throwing herself head first into saving people. If only humanity could be similar to Kallen he thought. Gradually, the Schicksal government eventually become corrupted, Kallen along with Otto helped the common folks by stealing from the rich and distributing it to them. The government also waged war against other nation to gain more power even when under the crisis of Honkai. Seeing this, Kallen and Otto planned a rebellion against the current government. During a battle against the other nation, Otto accompanied Kallen, who was a front-liner, as a medic despite Kallen's concerns over his health. He didnt want to seat back as a spectator and wanted to be of help. Unfortunately, they lost the battle and retreated.
    Years later, the Schicksal government, under Otto's father guidance, declared that Kallen to be executed publicly due to treason. Otto was confused and begged his father if there was another way. His father told him that he would let her go if she promised to marry Otto and become an Apocalypse. This will make them gain control over the House of Kaslanas who was gaining more power than them. Otto was shocked since it was his dream but was hesitant since its not truly love. However, her safety takes priority first. When Otto told Kallen, who was in a cell, the proposal, she refused since the Kaslanas should uphold their oath and save people. Instead, she wanted to have one last drink. Otto, not accepting Kallen's injustice execution, made a deal with his sister, Risa Schariac, to free Kallen during the execution. His sister accepted the deal under the agreement that Otto will get his hands dirty as an Apocalypse who had always seat at the sidelines. During the day of the execution, Otto released Honkai Beasts into the town which distracted the guards. He freed Kallen but was slapped by her as he endangered the townspeople. She then went into town, saving them but ended up getting killed in doing so. Because of Otto and his family's doings, Kallen ended up getting killed. He felt guilty and devoted his life to find a way to revive Kallen for her to live once again without worries. He thought to himself that its natural to give his life for hers as she was the one who saved his. He purposely played as a "villain" role cuz a villain is the only way a world can truly change from his perspective. This perspective came to be due to the "evil" world taking the only "hero" which was Kallen away from the world, unfair and injustice.
    He then rebelled the Schicksal government along with the people that believed in the Holy Maiden and eventually took over as the Overseer. He lost a lot of people he held dearly in the rebellion, namely the children in the orphanage like Voila. However, he became the very thing he swore to destroy. Under his rule, he uphold Schicksal under corruption for his goal. His obsession got over him. During 2nd Eruption when he met WoH, Otto wanted to strike a deal but WoH didnt deemed him as worthy and basically took a form of Otto and stabbed itself. Over the timeframe of what Otto did, WoH finally deemed him as worthy and accept the deal with Otto to help him with the connection to Imaginary Tree in chapter 25-Ex.
    His sole dedication lead him from a frail young boy to what he is capable of now. He went from a hero to a "villain". He did what others couldnt. He walked on a thorny path of no return and made a deal with God itself, WoH and Void Archives. He did all these without expecting anything in return. Just like everyone else in the honkaiverse, hes part of the tragedy the world inflicted upon. Thats why i like him as a character narratively but hate/pity him as a character in the honkai universe. He represents the humans' obsession and the inability to let go.
    He truly embodies the quote, "U either died a hero or live long enough to see urself become a villain".
    "When the world's demise is nigh, strong desires and obsessions can make one go further. Like everyone else, I too have obsessions." - Su, the 7th Flamechaser.
    Farewell, Otto Apocalypse. Next, Void Archives in APHO and Kevin Kaslana in WS.

    Its fitting how Otto chooses the Judgment of Shamash as his last weapon.
    It symbolizes his dedication to sacrifice himself for the one he loves, which is ironically a Kaslana weapon and motif to risk their lives for the ones they love.
    Its also a weapon notorious for killing its user for the price of its destructive power.
    Otto knew that this would be his final moment and he defiantly charged forward.

      Yeah Kallen’s father also used it to save Kallen’s life before. It’s quite sad that two of the people she loved sacrificed themselves using basically the same weapon. If Kallen is the world then Otto is her Kaslana.
      Also before I get hate for saying Kallen loved Otto she did love Otto, the letter she left him proves it. Her Great Inventor.
      It’s so sad that Kallen made Otto promise that he wouldn’t die for her. But Otto spent the next 500 years breaking that promise.

    (Not so) fun fact: The two bright stars at 8:18 are likely Altair and Vega, one brightest star in aquilla and another the second brightest star in northern hemisphere. In chinese folk lore, Altair is known as "niu lang"(cow-herd), and Vega as "zhi nu"(weaver-girl). "zhi nu" is the daughter of the jade emperor, king of gods, who lead a boring life of weaving night afterglow in heaven. She grew bored of this life, and one day snuck out of the heaven. During her time in mortal realm, she came to love the ordianry farmer, niu lang, and married each other. The jade emperor found out and was furious, condemning both to become stars in the night sky, seperated by the milky way so they can only met each other once per year.
    Here mihoyo is likely using this reference to ackowledge the relationship between Otto and Kallen, yearn but never meet.

    7:43 And the moment that was shown in chronicles of Theresa fighting the other Theresa , showing how he started to change a bit of how he wanted to create a vessel for Kallen, eventually to a Grandpa who wanted to spoil his granddaughter forever
    (Giving her allowance, and when she is going to cook and fell asleep, He cooked for her while she is asleep, telling her that when you prepare the right ingredient the nice cooking fairy will cook you the best foods forever, when this happened in the Chinese New Year event, he even asked if Theresa could have a win from his food, Though it tasted the best, it couldn’t happen since it wasn’t cooked by Theresa, He still cared about her asking not just once twice at least).

      Yeap Zhao Lu 赵路. He is a constant figure in otome such as Mhy own tot as Artem, and an impressive resume as many characters. Apparently he mentioned he do want to have more villain roles but most roles he received is otome (do note that he is excellent as otome male lead too).
      His main job is actually sports broadcaster, of which he talks about MLB, NBA and even badminton
      As a fan I hope he got as many variety of characters as well as otome, the best of both worlds.

    Is Otto's desire finally fulfilled? Yes.
    Was he able to see Kallen one last time? Probably.
    Does Kallen knew he 'saved' her? No.
    Did he die? Most likely.
    If they ever meet and circumstances were known, he would only receive disdain and utter hate from her but this he understand.
    The moment that he started his 'journey' of 'saving' her, he never once hesitated.
    He knew that when he made 'that' mistake, he lose the right to become happy and yet he never grieved.
    He immediately set out to find a way to correct such mistake but unfortunately only by pilling more of it was what he can see.
    Such is not a tale of love but of a man blindly seeking the only "right" thing that he believed to exist in his world.
    The "Apocalypse's" crest became the sorry existence for this tragic dream.

      So instead, he create an 'empty' branch then comeback to the time where kallen soul still in her body and then save her. With this method, he rerouted the flowing of time to the new branch thus creating a new timeline. Pretty much otto yeeted kallen to new timeline.

    They took some elements of Everlasting flames, Cyberangel and Final Lesson, arguably the most beloved shorts in the entire series, and woven them into this one... Except this time the main character is the villain (maybe anti-hero would be a better way to call him after this short).
    I love the way they directed the fight scene in a way that heavily resembles Everlasting Flames, it creates this sort of unconscious contradiction that makes you think "I should not feel pity or sadness for this man, why am I almost crying?". It really highlights that after all, Otto is also fighting for what is beautiful in the world, except in his case the only thing worth fighting for is Kallen.

    From the start, years ago, standing on Hyperion's bridge, I never really find myself hating the overseer, in this matter, Otto Apocalypse. I found him as a man who had his goals, knew every little step he would take. He did wrong things, he did stuff we found evil. I'm not here to defend him, but to commend him for his dedication. Getting Sixth Serenade as my first S rank valkyrie, growing and fighting the Honkai with her, knowing she died in the past, hahah... at some point, I can't lie and say I didn't want to see Otto succeed with his plan reviving her.
    And he did. Today. He didn't lie when he said nothing will change with the outside world. He revived the woman he loved the most, not for living his dream marrying her, but to give her the future he believed she deserved. He sacrificed himself doing so. I found that very selfless of him, yet at the same time, that is the most selfish thing one can do.

    In my opinion, there are few villians that are well written like Otto. To save one person, he was ready to kill a lot of others. Even though he understanded it well that those people that he killed are also someone's beloved, just like Kallen to him, he chose to ignore them. Because if not, he would not have enough will to bring back Kallen, he would never be able to save her. I think that's also the reason why he called himself selfish. The reasons behind his action are fitting with his character, an intelligent and strong-will man but selfish. Moreover, the way Mihoyo demonstrates him, his life and his death is absolutely beautiful. I cried listening to his song and seeing his will and action😭😭😭

    I keep forgetting that this a game, and not an anime or movie. This much dedication goes into a game, that too one that was originally a mobile game.
    Otto is a very well written villain. He represents human desires that are too selfish to be suppressed very well. There is a lot of realism in his character. I only admire his dedication towards Kallen, who he believed was generically wronged by the world and deserved and ending where she could continue to do what she enjoyed. But then there's all the other very messed up shit he's done, he might have a strong will but his obsession with delivering "justice" satisfied him in the end, but the process arguably did more harm than good for the others around him. Eitherway, it is a fitting end for his character.

    I only knew about the general plot surrounding Otto and Kallen when I searched him up (courtesy of Kamisato Ayato's VAs), and although I didn't get into Honkai, Otto was definitely my favorite character because there was clearly so much potential in him.
    Tbh I was quite disappointed when I found out almost every Honkai player hated him. Which is understandable ofc, but I see ppl saying stuff like "Otto simps for Kallen" and mocking him for his one-sided love. I was so confused because even as an outsider, it was clear that Otto's love for Kallen is pure. Like, yes he still loves her, but he also knows that she doesn't love him back that way, and he accepts it. That's just who Otto is. He's very clear about everything that's going on. He knows the consequences of his actions, he knows he's the villain of this story.
    But despite what was undoubtedly a lonely, despairing journey, he continues to push forward, toward his one and only goal. Putting his all into it, not allowing anything to waver him. And it is that determination, that sheer willpower, that is so stunning and striking, and undoubtedly one of the biggest reasons why he's such an attractive character.
    I'm glad that now we finally get to see his truest self, the one behind all those sarcastic remarks, and with that we can see how he's just human afterall. There's so many ways we can describe him, yet none can tell the full extent of his beautiful complexity. Just like how a few letters and numbers cannot fully represent ourselves, represent a human.
    I'm glad that after a long, gruesome 500 years, he's finally achieved his one goal. And he did it without destroying the current Honkai timeline, whilst creating a new timeline where humanity undoubtedly has the highest chances of survival and advancement since he's passed all his knowledge to Kallen. That new timeline will be interesting for sure, with loads of potential in store. Yet, we will never see another Otto Apocalypse ever again. He is now erased from existence as the price he had to pay, one that he was willing to, because he never wanted, never needed anything back if it meant he could save Kallen.
    I can see how he gets easily misunderstood since he was a big villain in the MC's perspective, but now that we've finally got his own perspective, I hope the fanbase will now try to understand the many facets of this beautiful character.
    Congratulations to our one and only Otto for doing what was nigh impossible and finally achieving his goal. This story ended in your victory. Rest well now, Otto Apocalypse. 永别了,我的大发明家。

      It can't be helped that this love turns to Obsession along the way because how Important Kallen was for him, if she dies then this world is not worth living, no matter how pure your love is Human is still Human There is no 100% pure love in Human emotion there is a little of other Elements like Lust, Obsess, and many other, it's just Otto made a mistake, His love blinding his heart, after Kallen Died that's where his Obsession start to Grow massively but it's the obsession to bring her back not to be lovely dovey with her.
      like his theme song "Everyone has their own desire" even in a pure relationship you have your own selfish desire, what makes him diffrent from any other human who claimed that their love is pure?. Nope nothing he is as selfish as everyone else, but how much you willing to go for that desire is another matter, which makes him respectable imo.

He’s not so much obsessed with her anymore as he is with fighting her fate. The secondary objective has become primary. And even though “the ends justify the means” is never good, but is great villain material, I believe Otto stopped short of that greatness because it wasn’t love that he was chasing, but rather proving himself right and the world wrong.

      Genshin has Yae, Mei and Kiana. Ayato has the same voice as Otto in JP and I was told his CN is too. He may yet be the first Honkai male character to end up in Genshin knowing very well that despite still being hated, he is now appreciated as a character. It would do good for Mihoyo to release a playable Otto now since many Honkai players will attempt to get him after all this. There will most likely be a tease of him sometime through next update or late this one.
      I'd be more surprised if Ayato is not Otto.

    Returning to this masterpiece after three weeks to say I am still in love with this cinematic, this world, this game.
    Otto Apocalypse, wielding the mimicry of the judgement of shamash as his last weapon. How ironic that he ended up following the Kaslana oath better than all. He protected the one he loved at all costs, even from death itself, and never yielded. He ended his own story the way he wanted, and he fought for what he believed to be all that is beautiful in the world.
    He villainized himself, not only to others, but to himself, making sure to remain grounded, aware of his own evil, but didn't let it stop him. Otto was, tragically, a slave of his own desires, more than any other. And yet, on his goal to accomplishing those desired things he gathered the heroes of the world, raised them, and gave them a purpose, to make sure the world doesn't crumble after his departure, on the contrary, Otto set up the heroes to flourish. None of his rights can EVER justify the wrongs, but all he really wanted, in the end, was his friend back.
    Did he really have to go so far? Was that really so much to ask for?
    He traded his life, image, sanity, legacy, and love to accept the malice of the world onto himself. All to close the distance between his love, Kallen, and the tomorrow he'd never reach.
    The perfect character to save the world, perfectly written...
    But not a hero.

He does everything to achieve the goal in his mind even if it means destroying the very essence of why he has done it from the first place. He suffered and endured just like anyone.

    When you truly want to change the world,
    you will discover how pitiable your own strength is
    The Holy Maid gave her all to the people,
    and was repaid with merciless shackles and nooses
    The world is at chaos,
    It is neither fair nor sensible
    It wrongs heros and breeds scum
    It is rife with ugliness without a trace of beauty
    The malice of the world shall be sundered by the villain
    This is the distance between her and tomorrow
    This is the world taking revenge against her
    But her believer will never give in
    Once their soul dissipates,
    One cannot be brought back to life
    The world allows a mind to find a matching vessel
    But does not allow a vessel to gather the pieces of a mind
    To save the one and only her,
    I can only create new possiblities in the past
    The other future will belong to her

He's a madman and he knows it and has accepted it, all he wants is to make it up to Kallen for not being able to save her when she needed him.

    Something I have not seen anyone mention in the comments: the song playing when Otto is approaching the Tree has a type of dulcimer playing during the 2nd half in the background. The dulcimer would have been a very common instrument in Kallen/Otto's time and region. Brilliant subtly that takes the audience to that point in history.

    I swore that I would never forgive Otto, but I changed my mind. Seeing his determination really changed my view on him. From the moment he gave his message to Theresa, and then, when he finally reached Kallen and deliver his final words. God freaking heck do I cried. Seriously crying. No other Honkai cinematic ever did this to me, and why it must be you, Otto, the one that we all despised so much? I can't believe it, but you did it, you absolute mad man!
    We might not ever could condone his crimes, but the least that we could do is to wish him peace. He suffered hundreds of years just for the one that he loved. He dedicate his life, willing to play as the bad guy just to change history, to undo his wrong, to save her that he cannot save.
    Otto is human just like all of us. He was a fragile, wounded soul, tormented and twisted into a wretched person that he was... But deep inside, he's still human. He cared, he loved, and he's willing to sacrifice himself for others. He's even willing to sacrifice the whole world, just for she that saved his childhood.
    Otto live long enough to be a villain, and survived long enough to die as a hero. Many heroes willing to sacrifice themselves for saving the world and those that they loved, but very few could sacrifice themselves and the whole world for the only one that they ever truly love.
    Rest in peace, Otto Apocalypse. Best written villain, and one of the best character in the whole series. The one that we hate the most, and the one that we respect the most.

      Well Otto never truly loved Kallen, if he did he wouldn't experiment on children and kill so many innocents. He'd know she wouldn't condone it and aspire to be like her. He spits upon her memory and values every time. Exactly when he let the honkai beasts rampage that would eventually kill her, she hates him for it and runs to save a child. He never deserved this heroic ending. He's a selfish bastard through and through.

      That said he saved far far more people than he killed or wronged. He was single-handedly responsible for the survival of mankinfd for centuries. Without him humanity would be extinct, and at the end he left leaving as a gift the means for his earth to survive after he is gone.

      @@conelord1984 That’s twisting my statement and then attacking that. I was merely saying that without appreciating her wishes and dreams he displays a lack of care for the object of his affection. Even he calls it an obsession, not love. And you are wrong that no one else could have aided humanity as well as he has. The story literally goes out of its way to explain this at several turning points:
      - Anybody who had gotten void archives and not be so wholly corrupyed by its influence would have done better.
      - Fighting Anti-Entropy, when they should have been fighting Honkai.
      - Developing a cure for Honkai corruption in the shicksal labs, only to order its destruction and have the personell killed except one vial as a failsafe which was used by Himeko to save Kiana.
      - Letting Himeko believe that she was going to die anyway because a lack of mass production of said cure.
      - Not killing Sirin, but instead contacting the Will of the Honkai during the Second Eruption, causing her to survive and destroy 1/3d of the earth’s population. Ruining Fu Hua’s sacrifice in the process.
      - Shooting Fu Hua in the head, humanity’s longest active defender.
      - Trying to nuke New York for petty reasons.
      - Nuking Cecilia and Siegfried, literally his best valkyrie and another high-tier one.
      - Killing many past S-rank valkyries
      - Creating hundreds of Kallen clones that fought each other to the death until Theresa broke the cycle by sparing Amber.
      The list goes on! There were many times were a better strategic decision could have been made. So no, he did not save more people than he wronged, that title goes to Welt Yang.

    I actually think Kallen might be alive in the main timeline. If you noticed before he touches the tree its clearly at night yet when he falls through the air its clearly day. As well as the fires are put out. And he talks about the mind needing a host that it can transfer indicating you cant revive someone from the dead but you can MOVE them mind and soul into a new vessel at the time of death. I think Otto overlapped the Eras and used the clone bodies to host all of the lives covered by the overlapp.

Then, the last battle came, and we finally disposed of him.

    如果你真的因为这段影片而感动,那么唯一不用做的事就是原谅奥托。
    你可以记恨他,因为他视生命为草芥,因为他伤害了一个个我们心爱的女武神。
    你可以同情他,因为他爱而不得,注定无法与那个他愿付出一切来换回的爱人重逢。
    你可以佩服他,因为他可以真正做到不择手段,把自己当成达成自己目的的最大工具。
    你可以可怜他,因为他人渣的一生中还有他唯一心爱的孙女,却只能让她永远记恨他。
    你可以怜悯他,因为他亲手将自己逼进绝路,亲手造就了成为众矢之的愚者--伪神奥托。
    在他漫长而又短暂的五百年生命中,很多事只有他能想出来,很多事也只有他能做出来。在最后,他需要的不是正名,因为那是他自己都不愿赐给自己的东西。如果说世界上存在一个最恨伪神奥托的人,那个人一定是前天命主教、卡莲的大发明家,奥托 阿波卡利斯。
    奥托需要的不是洗白,是纯黑,是独自沉沦的黑,是将所有人排斥在外的黑。如果奥托在最后一刻被原谅,被理解,那么他过去的一切都被否定了,不管是他做过的好事还是坏事,都失去了它们之所以发生的意义。
    奥托的离开需要的不是“走好”或“安息”,可能他仅仅只是需要旁人心中,哪怕那么一瞬的对生命的脆弱和逝去而感到的悲悯。因为那才是奥托成为恶人,成为愚者,成为伪神的原因。
    其他人的逝去,我们可以说一句“永别了,老朋友。”,至于奥托,不如就送他一句“永别了,老逼登。”
