Hoyo gave Firefly Kiana level of depression…pls have mercy Shaoji!!! 😭 Glamoth was already long gone before Firefly i guess…the planar ornament did mention The Iron Cavalry kept going fighting remnants of the Swarm even after Glamoth’s fall…
A clone in white body suit with black and orange linings, the version trailer with her flying Sparkle’s bomb away to save people…ITS KIANA ALL OVER AGAIN NOOOO 😭
@@hololivevirus4854 no, if it's purpose is to produce more swarm then she's to fight to protect the babys. In this case Argenti literally fight the final boss.
The animation was just so phenomenal here, I've already replayed it many times... the raw emotions poured into the fraught yet determined soldiers, the anguish in her face... I can't get enough of it. Imagine if we could get a full series of this quality from Hoyoverse one day...
The Swarm Disaster was recorded as the most horrific and gruesome event in HSR universe where trillions of bugs infested and destroyed civilisations in many worlds but Ruan Mei secretly kept these bugs in the space station basement without telling Herta and Screwllum? 🤔 Im gonna use this as blackmail material the next time we see Ruan Mei…😏
Now that was an absolute cinema. For me- hands down the best thing Hoyo has ever published by far, after watching it for the first time I was legit sitting stunlocked and almost tearing up for like 5 minutes, and the quality, the sound design, everything is just sooo perfect.. Gl with y'all pulls!
This animation is honestly giving me nier automata vibes. Spoiler warning. . . . "9s: Did you know? Humanity is already extinct. The bunker was used to give us hope and something to fight for, and the Yorha was created to perpetuate that lie. The commander? Me? 2b? Sacrificial lambs, all of us! Doesn't that sound HILARIOUS?? Doesn't it make you LAUGH??"
I wonder if Firefly would try to hunt her down if she ever finds out she tried to resurrect the swarm emanator I like Ruan Mei, but if that were the case, I'd definitely side with Firefly.
Like it’s not even an emanator the big swarm we see in this trailer. The emanator of propagation would just have exploded the planet in one blow and tazzy the whole galaxy would no longer exist.
It looks like only Sams of the same model as Firefly were fighting here. I'm wondering if this means the other Sams from the Myriad Celestial trailer could still exist somewhere in the universe? At first I thought that the second survivor was her friend with glasses, but then I remembered that she had a completely different hairstyle, and Sam’s model, although it was the most similar to Firefly of all three, was still somehow visually different.
I highly doubt there are other SAMs out there. I believe that the only way other SAMs appear in our current time is if they had something akin to cryogenic sleep or whatever Firefly went through. Otherwise, they'd just be over hundreds of years old.@@k3nt0b3nt0
@@TehAviatiicglamoth isn't a single planet it's an empire. The others went to different battle fields so there a possibility atleast one might survive. Firefly is possibly the last surving member of her model tho
@@stereotomono803All we know is that Glamoth being an empire was a lie the Cavalry was told by the Republic of Glamoth. After the Cavalry’s war with the Swarm, all the war debris blotted out the Sun from their home planet, and the Repeblic of Glamoth eventually faded away.
I still love how Firefly parallels March in many ways. Both like selfies, both like Trailblazer, both use dual-wielding sword techniques, both found floating in space naked. It makes me wonder if March was a survivor of Glamoth.
After watching this animation, I wondered what is with Argenti who can the mother swarm single handedly? He doesn't even have a path or an aeon he follows any longer.
@@Naarine true... But we don't know what changed and how long it's been since the Myriad Celestia. So she might've gotten a new haircut and switched suits after her previous one was too damaged
@@Royce0508 it wouldn't make much sense from a storytelling or character design standpoint. If they were going to kill those three from the trailer, then they would have made it as cinematic, tragic and obvious as possible. For example, if Firefly saw broken red-framed glasses on the ground. But if these three survive her character trailer, then we can be 80% sure that we will meet them further in the story. 20% on the fact that they can still kill them in the Firefly character story.
Just remember... one of her staple support is the one thats trying to bring the swarm back alive again... also shes technically older than an aeon no?... firefly was there when the swarm era and nanook was born after said era...
Yeah i think aftet destroys the whole planet she was put into coma and the green part around her probably to keep her alive and stop her aging like march ice cude when himeko and welt found her
She could have been floating for a few hundred years, or like 150K years. Depends on if this trailer is set during the Swarm disaster or way after. Mythus and Nanook after post-Swarm Disaster, which was ~1300 Amber Eras ago (Eras are 50-250 years).
It’s kinda funny and ironic how she was joined with Ruan Mei in the current banner. One despises the swarm, one actually wants to revive the Swarm. Lol
This isnt Glamoth btw. Glamoth was one of the few civilizations that survived the Swarm Disaster but was frozen to death because of the debris in the space blocking it from its star from all the fighting that took place.
The wildest thing for me in this video is the scene of Firefly (as Sam) flying towards the Swarm. Any other anime would have that be a climactic finale for an arc or season. HSR used it for a fucking animated short. I can't get over the colors, shadows, the music and emotions. I'm not even a fan of mecha and I wanna build a fucking Gundam.
for anyone wondering why they looked the same, im pretty sure its because they were all SAMs (Strategic Assault Mechs) while the other cockpits we saw in the myriad trailer weren’t SAMs. Firefly called one of them a Personal Escort Model
No offense to all the bug lover//owner//tamer//keepers//whisperers//herders//collecters//breeders//caretakers//nurturers//whatevers-u-wanna-label-urselves---- but pls tell me u don't wanna also love THIS particular bug, right? *r i g h t ?*
Just a heads up Duk! Firefly late Constellations aren't really that crazy once you get past E2. Simply having her lightcone and first 2 eidilons will be more than enough for her to be basically the best DPS in the game. 👌
Marvel or Star Wars could never make as epic and brutal of a galactic ar-scene as this. If this is how utterly dire the Swarm used to be in HSR, imagine what Genshin's Archon War or Catclysm could have been like if we ever get animated shorts of that too. Edit: Also that girl who walked towards Firefly and then died on her knees she didn't wear clothes, it was leftover muscle on her body where her skin used to be.
From my thoughts it might be like. Reborn. And they used tree to represent it if you watch clearly she's almost dead at that point but somehow she got the power and smack the 2nd wave + planet together with her
Metaphorical: representing a desire to live, or finding a new purpose after she realized that the thing she'd been fighting for (Glamoth) was gone. Trees are seen as slow growing, representing the past as well as the future, but are also incredibly powerful and tenacious; they'll crack apart concrete and steel if left to grow, and can survive in harsh environments. The unnatural speed of the growth could represent a surge of power, and it grows from her tears. It's also literally the line she says at the end: "I dreamed of a scored earth...". The 2nd half of this animated short was the most conceptual/open-ended of their animated shorts. Lots of room for interpretation; feels very Evangelion-coded to me.
I’ve watched a couple different reactions now and every time Dr. Ratio comes in to disrupt the moment and advertise himself and the game. I don’t think he knows how to read the room.
"stories of laughter, hope and positivity"
-HSR not only does this well but even goes beyond it through Firefly's past 😭
No laughter, but they are indeed about hope and positivity facing the worst odds.
When Shaoji says those line, we need to be ready of depression...
Imagine just imagine if the Abyss in Genshin were replaced by the Swarm, will Teyvat survive or are they cooked?

For me it’s big Eighty-Six vibes. “Living is just choosing how we die”, and the child soldier theme, and all that.
Oh my god man the game made me bawl
Halo, Clone Wars, Eighty-Six, it's hitting all the right spots for me
existentialism is the common inspiration. Life begets death or Die to live is a reference to heidegger.

No, paths continue to exist even after an Aeon's death. Like for the path of trailblaze, which continues even after akivili's death.
"Why are we still here... just to suffer"

Argenti is the chad he even enter acheron an emanator domain to rescue aventurine 🗿
The same dude whos born on a planet in war

Acheron, Adventurine, and Firefly had such tragic history 😭

Glamoth reminds me of the British Empire, once a powerful empire now its all in the past/gone. For her majesty = For king and country
But their legacy is transferred to USA.
all of that was fake. The empress wasnt real and Glamoth was actually a republic, all of that was a lie made to manipulate the clones
meanwhile tazzyroth is tanking all the aeons
