Everything You Need to Know About WELT YANG Before Playing Honkai Star Rail

- This is everything you need to know about Welt Yang before playing Honkai: Star Rail.
If you never played Honkai Impact 3rd before, you might be very confused as to why people lose their minds over this plain-looking Grandpa, that is seemingly obsessed with making anime and going on space adventures with a bunch of kids. Welt is a Hero who saved Earth countless times. A man that endured insurmountable obstacles and managed to rise up to the challenge every time.
This video is aimed at newer players that wish to join the Honkai series with the release of Honkai Star Rail. HoYoverse already has a rich "multiverse" structure established inside Honkai Impact 3rd, but for most newcomers, that concept might be a bit confusing and not properly explained in Star Rail yet. Welt Yang is the only confirmed character from Honkai Impact 3rd that went over to Honkai Star Rail, so I made this video to go over his history and lore. From the moment he took up the name "Welt" in the Anti Entropy Visual Novel, until his latest adventures on the Sky People's spaceship together with Void Archives.
This is the Story of WELT YANG!
Please Enjoy!
Some of the Honkai: Star Rail footage was recorded by Toby and provided by Azrial Vanity to me. Thank you both for the help!

Welt is the most badass grandpa in the Honkai Series. I promise you!
In secret conversations you can have with him on the train confirms both games are connected.
It's a video called welt explains aeons and hi3 world by Marisa honkai.
here is the video
ruclips.net/video/cXUq46UR-EQ/видео.html&ab_channel=MarisaHonkai
can you do a full recap of the story starting from the previous era? 🙂
@@BluntMatcheteAstartes345fghew Seriously!?
Kevin: ...
I've never played honkai so the transition from "and he won the war with the being of void, on behalf of all humanity!!" to "next year he became a substitute teacher" was so fucking funny, i love the man lmao
He was recovering from basically guesstimating his body back into reality using 300k minds.
His body was so damaged that even after 5 years or so, he only recovered part of his power
Shit was tough
I died when he mentioned welt opening an animation studio an made a mecha anime lmao
@@Dieskull1000 welt is a huge mecha fan
Like, dude probably owns every gundam merch possible
And merch from any other mecha anime to exist
(that's why we got the EVA collab to begin with, Welt is the one behind the scenes, trust me)
@@MoriBoita Had you seen one of the Serval visits yet? The one where she talked about Welt. Dude heard about the "Machine of Creation" that huge mech in Cocolia boss fight, and started interrogating Serval for details HAHAAHAHAHAH
My boy welt really went "Aight be right back" and never came back.
Yea can you blame Tesla for addicted to alcohol?
It's okay, Bronya will drag him home once she gets back from her current mission and finds out that he's missing
Just like someone dad
Welt literally went to a whole ass other universe for the milk and never came back
Like dad…
Welt: *has a wife and a child*
Also Welt: "Nooooo Himeko's gonna die again in some other universe 😭😭😭 gotta leave EVERYONE behind and go save her"
I think the main reason is because of the guilt he probably feels toward Himeko. He calls her his student even in Alien Space(which take place about a decade after Himeko's death), and he probably blames himself for her becoming a Valkyrie, losing her lifespan, and then dying stopping HoV/saving Kiana. Welt not telling Himeko the truth abo0ut her dad was what caused her to join Schicksal in the first place after all.
Being fair in Alien Space he gets one way warped to a mothership of the Sky People anyway (happens some time after he encounters VA on the train at the end of APHO1) and we haven't seen him in the timeline since so while he may be spending his time helping Himeko, it's not unreasonable to assume he doesn't know the way home anyway.
Basically Welt is reliving the plot of Quantum leap.
Dude had no way to go back to Earth, so he might as well do something good in the meantime. He's still looking for a way back, too.
He probably feels very guilty about Himeko’s death.
Even without HoV Himeko only has few years left because of artificial stigma, which she got because she became a valkyrie. And Himeko decided to become a valkyrie to look for her missing father, whom was killed by Welt and hide the truth from her.
So basically Welt started a domino chain effect that led to Himeko’s inevitable doom.
@@dracotias If we're going by story/info given in the Beta, Welt can send signals/messages back home but doesn't know it's location so he can't just get dropped off, so he's just enjoying the adventure since he can't get back.
"I used to believe that kindness is the best gift a civilization can give, and I still do. Just because I once misplaced my kindness, doesn't mean that I should turn away from it and bury it for good."
- Welt Yang, Honkai Impact 3rd: Alien Space
He is just perfect dude, just can't believe people hating him for being a kind person and calling him boring, people these day be loving them bad boys.
@@moores4415 Honestly I agree, just because somebody isn't badass and is a good boy, doesn't really make them stray away from being a good character. He's well written, his motives are clear, and we get a good understanding of his character from just a few words. His wise personality is executed perfectly. At the end, a good character in the people's eyes are simply just their preference and what attracts them.
@@moores4415 If anything, I think the fact that Welt didn't turn away from kindness further demonstrates how indomitable his mental fortitude is. It probably isn't easy for someone like Welt to know that he is at least partially responsible for Himeko's path in life and what that path ultimately led to. But he doesn't let what he perceives as a failure change who he is, and I think that's admirable.
@@moores4415 last time we get a pretty bad boy, we got Otto.
@@moores4415 that's because they know nothing about him nd they only care about looks just because he's a little nerdy looking they think their GI and HSR husbandos are better than him
Tesla: can you help me raise your son?
Wely: The GALAXY! Its calling me.
i have to save multiverse
Tesla: What?
Joey: visible confusion
Welt: _Refuses to Elaborate Further and Leave_
The Reason Studio will be searching for him fr
Dayum I guess not paying child support makes you stronger 😂.
Reminds me of a certain demon.
Galactic batter: seriously ? Dont jump on that hype train
Not even sure how people can call Welt ugly. That's like calling Cocolia ugly.
They are not the most youthful people around, but insanely good looking for their age bracket.
Agree.
WHO CALLED HIM UGLY, WHO?!
THEY WILL FEEL THE WRATH OF THOUSANDS SUNS
Who dare call him ugly?
@@moores4415 I think it’s the honkai haters who probably don’t understand anything about this game
@@paulkilcline1168 deffo.
Summary of this video about welt
- wielding hersher of reason power
-can create whatever he imagined
-1v1 sirin in outer space with restricted power and survive
-basically die many time but refuse to die
-glasses only to appear cooler
Lmao, i actually forget that Welt doesnt actually need the glasses 😂
Oscar Orcus vibes :o
I wub him. Now I'm glad he was the first 5 star I pulled...
Bro really just dies in every encounter and walks it off each time. He can really teach Himeko a thing or two.
@@greenstuff9361 nah that was cold
The literal kind of man who simply said “No” to death lol
Multiple times too, turns out Herrchers Of Reason are VERY hard to kill when they actually have time to learn about their powers properly
@@dracotiasMake sense, it isn’t gonna be easy to kill someone who can recreate their entire body. For other Herrchers, destroying their body effectively stop them even if they can store their consciousness in the core to avoid true death, since they can’t move around without a body/vessel
HoR on the other hand: “oh no, my body is destroyed? whatever shall I do~”
@@NeinKyori mind you, he was able to pull off molecular regeneration while his compatibility with the Reason core never went beyond 50%. That says a lot about the versatility of Reason.
He’s not immortal. He just refuses to die. Sisu
Welt really went
“Do you think killing me will make me die!!!”
Jokes about Tesla as Welt's wife aside, Welt is kind of an underappreciated major character in the game. Because he's a definite example of "knight in sour armor"-type of character.
He knows that his job isn't easy because he's a constant victim of malicious schemes and betrayals, yet he's still a firm believer of a simple act of kindness is the best gift a civilization can give
what exactly is tesla and the "son" to Welt?
@@janbertguerrero6988 Tesla is literally genderbent Tesla from our universe and a basically immortal scientist. Also his wife. Joey is just his and hers son
@@lepworra7514 she actually is the descendant of Nikola Tesla who also exists in Honkai universe
@@lepworra7514tesla is not his wife 💀 she literally met Welt when he was 5 and he sees her as a mother or something like that
@@lepworra7514 i searched up and most of the evidence i found are either head canon or misunderstood
Welt and tesla are guardians of a welt joice's clone
Because joice calls welt dad and the fact that welt and tesla are guardian of welt joice's clone led to many people misunderstood
Welt is the GOAT. Reading the Second Eruption Manga, Welt was amazing. I got chills when he created the entire arsenal of earth to fight Sirin. Welt is so badass, and I will get him in Honkai Starrail.
he look handsome and badass to me
He just spook me in reguler banner. Couldnt get happier than this. Only some handful of characters left that I wish for.
NUKES ARE THE GREATEST CREATION OF HUMANITY!
@@Floofrer Lol what?
@@Floofrer agreed
I love Welt in Star Rail. I smiled every time he wanted to go along on a mission to help our crew and got told to chill out by Himeko 😂 always has a “mooom please!” vibe. I like how we’re seeing more of his personality, because I think it makes him a far more human character beyond him being a living legend
I didnt even knew welt before but he kinda fine
The "mooooom pls :(((("
Was actually my trailblazer asking to bring him along even tho i had no idea who he was but he looked good and his voice was nice. 😂
Nah, the funniest part about him is the way he acts like his wife and son doesn't exist HAHAHA and you know what's really funny? Last time we saw his son, Joey, kid just awakened his powers. Oh yeah, spoiler, his son is a Welt Joyce clone too. Anyways, after that scene in the train, we literally never knew what happened to Joey after. I'm just guessing that dude brought the kid to his mom and said "I'm gonna be gone for a while and not teach my son how to use his powers"
@@allentayoto7387Joey is die isn't he?😮😮
Seeing welt as a playable character is fucking awesome
We waited for years and Chinese server killed the dream in Honkai Impact 3rd, but new it's finaly here, and we will also have playable Otto... kinda.
@Luis Rey Nambo Arcos he even brings kallen's coffin with him
@@grimm7783I’m laughing at this for some reason. I just imagine otto flung the coffin to the enemy and make bonk sound🤣 i know I shouldn’t laugh about this.
@@izzahzemino9436 hey atleast he ain't reviving a dead girl that doesn't even love him 💀
@@fzone2045 ooff😂
I kinda wish welt is also present in jarilo-IV, It would be interesting to see him meet bronya, Seele and cocoilia in this universe
Maybe welt will come to belobog sometime in the event
@@Alleriereverieiirc Himeko and Welt did see the events that happened in Belobog, which means he saw the Trailblazer die and come back to life
Welt would literally give a good explanation how they went here and what’s the purpose just like how he did the Talk with Jing Yuan and Yukong
*PTSD Intensifies
So basically, Welt Yang is a Sigma Male who wants to save a woman whom her alternative universe's father was killed by himself and tried to pull his own Project Valuka to save her.
And pulled the most anime thing ever , 'dad went to get milk' 😆😆😆😆

I can't imagine how he would feel if he sees a Star Rail version of Tesla or Joyce
Not having a good time seeing photos of Luocha
HSR: *adds a sirin to the game that is similar in appearance while also being like MGS personality wise*
Welt: *she’s not the same one… calm down… don’t drop the black hole on her…*
@@LeftyPencileven luocha that stays on the express the first time after you did his story quest can feel welt staring at him lmaooo😂😂😂
@@Proxy606what character are you referring to?
Wow! I have no idea they foreshadow HSR Himeko since alien space manga 🤯 this is insane! Welt is such the legend in every honkai series.
The foreshadowing goes much earlier than that. The half a photo welt has in alien space... We actually saw the other half of that photo years before then in Himeko's possession in Sanguine nights. One of the very first captainverse events which came out around chapter 9.
Technically the entire "there's multiple worlds/realities" has been foreshadowed for years.
13:59
Lobster: "What took you so long? Did you go to another universe just to buy some milk?"
Welt: "Yes."
Himeko MUST be protected, we cannot lose her again
sadly... It's depression impact. Her death is foreshadowed already.
@@wkdpdia7105 depression rail
@@wkdpdia7105 whereee?
Could you imagine if they kill off Himeko again
Then her death theme is a rendition of Nightglow
As long as the body still warm
The cute little baby dragon can revive her
It's a shame we don't get story what happen during his visit to Salsotto to save HSR Himeko. I'm been confused with the manga because they suddenly been saved by Niggurath & Kira then it's just ended like that.
Hopefully they'll expand on that in the future.
Welt:
*"I never die... But when I do, I really don't"*
The Hero known as "WELT" is such a great character design wise all together, in one sense you understand "WELT" is the collective of 300,000 wills and a selective body chosen to inherit the 300,000 wills. It just works really well story wise, it's also why I love bronya!
What's interestingly that I noticed from recent rewatching of story events, "WELT" is not only the name of a hero and protector, but is also a curse of a "great sinner" in the sense you are burdened with the identity to take on the name "WELT" whilst carrying the souls of 300,000 wills. Meaning to take up the name WELT (which means world) means to inherit what it means to protect their "world" and "world" is different for each heroic welt we see today, welt was a hero of humanity, a herrscher yet also an ally of humans a herrscher born human.
This struggle of identity was also tackled really well in the sea of quanta arc in chapters 10~12, we saw the different struggles of what it means for joachim to be a hero and protector of humanity called WELT. he was only a child when he was burdened by inheriting the identities known as WELT after seeing his hero WELT Joyce die in front on him. WELT Joyce burdened a young child with the power of human at such a young age!! I will never forgive Joyce for that but at the same time, I can understand why he would choose Joachim at the time.
And the next successor bronya is the biggest factor in all of this. All the welt's we see are all special people because they were chosen to become the inheritance of the hero named "WELT" but bronya's case she wasn't chosen to become a hero of humanity, instead she was human with no direct factors to inheriting the will of WELT. She had no special skills, no special inheritance she was purely A normal person, she had to work and be recognized by the 300,000 thoughts as "WELT THE HERO OF HUMANITY"
I can't wait what they have in store for us in star rail we want more Welt!
5:10 a little insight detail from Honkai's Lore: Due to this incident, USA bloody hates Schicksal so Valkyries aren't allowed to operate in USA's soil and USA openly opposes and even attacks shicksal when they can (it has been implied but never truly shown in game), to fight the Honkai USA makes use of its militar industrial complex to pomp out battle mechs and other anti Honkai weapons in mass, actually many of the generic looking mechs you see in the game are "made in USA", the matters related to Honkai management are entrusted to Anti-entropy which seems to be under supervision of the Departament of Defense and it seems that AE's budget and actions must be approved by the Federal congress itself, so yeah Bronya and co. are Federal employees. XD
i mean yeah i would imagine that trying to nuke fucking new york city would leave the US goverment pretty pissed off
That makes sense. During the theater of Dominion Chapter, Tesla had to testify before Congress, and after Otto tried to nuke New York in the 50’s, I can imagine the USA government wasn’t big fans of him or his Valkeries.
one of the few times the US gorvernment decided to be based. Can't believe most of the main cast are feds tho.
@@KhoaLe-uc2ny Yeah but Mihoyo kind of totally forget about it, now Shicksal and Anti Entropy are fusing, Mihoyo has never developed geo politics too much in Honkai, when it should be a very important part of the story, IRL somethin like this is like the CIA fusing with the KGB or some crap like that, from the USA's perspective it should be unthinkable, also anti entropy has been funded by american taxes for decades and now they kind of forget it... But whatever just shut down the brain and focus on the waifus.
@@KhoaLe-uc2ny its the damn feds XD
Most badass scene for me is when welt outwitted sirin during their fight in space where he deliverately missed his attacks with SoE and tricked sirin into thinking that it was because of the damages he took but little did she know welt missed on purpose so that they are on the outer part of the event horizon of the star of eden's blackhole and it caused time diltion for them which gve just enough time for siegfried to escape.
And that's how he got the path of Nihility 😆
As a non Honkai player who is eagerly anticipating Star Rail, I'm very grateful to you for making this.
Welt seems extremely cool and is one of the characters I'm most interested in, and I'm sure this backstory will come in handy!
another thing I notice is that
the nihility part suits him
due to how much he sits in background than straight up action.
tbf
perseverance also suits him
Bro got the divine key cane and can create artificial black hole bro was clearly set up to be a nihility type
But despite being in the path of Nihility, he's still that strong that he can be a sub-dps or more.
Hold up, VA went with Welt? Does that mean we will see VA in Star Rail?
I would be a huge fan of that, VA deserves much more screentime imo.
you can see VA in the background of welt’s splash art in star rail- that may mean he’s actually there (since einsla and joyce are there but only in fragments of glass, while VA is physically there), but afaik we haven’t physically seen him yet. i hope we do though 🙏
Most likely yes. Welt said in HSR that he's been traveling with a "friend"
From a dialogue Welt said VA went on his own journey leaving the Astral Express crew going on his own
@@fourxy I wonder what his curent goals are..
It would be funny if he works with the villians, wouldn't be the 1st time that VA works with the bad guys to destroy the honkai. Otto wasn't a good influence lol
@@bl00by_ I mean i am definitely starting to see a pattern, VA always end on trouble one way or another
Working for the villains willingly or not willingly-
Playing Star Rail without understanding anything about Honkai is like playing Melty Blood without understanding Tsukihime
To be fair, that's how I got into Tsukihime and TYPE-MOON.
It's like playing melty blood without knowing anything about the nasuverse other than fate series, the animes/fgo specifically
Welt did not go back to earth after leaving the sky people's base, he went directly to the honkai star rail universe to stop the invasion, but then got stuck because their ship was broken.
Apparently the Sugars were sending him back to the earth universe, but something happened during that time and welt got picked up by the express.
We do not have any confirmation of that at the moment. Yes, it could be. Welt implies that he and VA were stranded on a spaceship in a world called 'Salsotto'. Now, if that's the world where he ended up in Alien Space or not, it's not know.
@@HomuLabs I think so, since the scenario that is described right before Himeko found them sounds exactly like the final scene in alien space
@@HomuLabs about this, if hsr get collab from HI3, maybe they will tell bout this or when the APHO story in HI3 get updated till that point. so there's chance to get collab character mei and/or other else from APHO
lol that adam "pay check" caught me off guard
ngl I only vaguely knew his backstory when playing hsr but I was sold in his intro cutscene it was so badass how he flew in and bonked us
Fun fact: Joyce's original name as a Schicksal rest subject included Omega, which had the same number as W. From there, Einstein decided to call him Welt. Joyce was a reference to Ulysses, though.
Zhongli was the one who got me to playing genshin and without any knowledge of hi3 or hsr, coincidentally welt was the character who caught my attention the moment i saw him in hsr. I’ve concluded that i have a thing for old men with bursts relating to the sky 😂
I found my people.
It's always the old man with wisdom and have visually aesthetic skill.
I felt this on a deep level lol XD it’s always the old men, bonus if they have long hair lol because additionally Blade had caught my attention lol
they share chinese va too 😭😭
@@dianabyeb so Kiana's Dad Voiced Welt?
Same
He was the guaranteed 5* I pulled in star rail and while I was aiming for Bronya, I wasn't disappointed. Didn't even know he was actually from the impact universe or that he was such a Badass. Now I don't regret getting him at all
His skill is really useful, slow down enemies and they barely get turns :))
Im so glad to see someone in literally the same situation as me. Wanted bronya, got welt instead in guaranteed, then got another welt in standard. Now that I know his lore, i don't regret getting him anymore
Bailu was my first guaranteed 5 star. And she was a huge help, in quite a few tough battles.😊
Though, I am quite ecstatic that I just got Welt today.😃
I started an Alt account for HSR going for a Welt starter pull... Wound up with Geppard pull1, Clara pull 2, meh nothing really interesting pull 3, pull 4 AND 5.... Bronya, craziest start but still sad/salty no Welt in all that.... then pulled a 5* Light Cone in the next two 10 pulls
I don't think a new player can comprehend this LMAO
I mean, of course, playing the game is the best way to understand what's happening. But there is no easy way to explain the lore of Welt over such a long period of time. I know that I threw a lot of foreign terms and concepts for a new players in there, but tbh, they are not really meant to be fully understood. That's why I also mention in the video the fact that people shouldn't beat their heads around them too much. I am content even if this offers a small glimpse of understanding of his characters.
@@HomuLabs perhaps a tldr at the end of the vid might be beneficial for the new players? Just like some dot points or something to remind them of all the new info you had shared and help it solidify into their memory.
@@VariisNailo I am a new player (just going into HSR and not H3rd bc I feel I am way too late on this game's content by this time), and tbh even tho I might not have understood in a matter of "connecting dots to extra facts", I do have now a general idea of who Welt is as a character and his past lore. I am grateful for this video tho!
@@moonmao868 oh sweet, glad to hear it.
Also, tbh I only started playing HI3 at the end of last month (because of my interest in honkai star rail) and have been having a blast (currently working through chapter 27), so it’s never too late to dive in and give it a shot, the only thing is that finding all the time required to finish the main story content (35 chapters) before HSR releases might pose a challenge for most people (my situation is a bit unique with time not really being an issue). The story for HI3 starts a bit slow but it does pick up its pace and the writing just keeps getting better and better as it goes on (with the potential to even move you to tears at times), but either way whatever you end up doing I hope you have fun!
as a new player i can confirm. i'll get into honkai just to understand tho.
Still wonder if Carole is canon, but at least VA canon in star rail for sure, the question is when he will comeback.
It's very hard to say. At this point I'm 50/50 on Reburn II being canon or not.
I suspect once we move past Part 1.5 and APHO3 we'll know. Hopefully.
@@xwolpertinger Keep in mind Star Rail might add more characters when the game progresses. Carole might be added on a later time.
Wdym cannon? She going to appear in star or not? Who know. Maybe she in the space station with Theresa and other fighting alien or something.
@@vanessachowjiaying4423 I'm hoping Shigure and VA appears so we can have them as playable characters. Oh and that hot hair girl that sugar took over her body or something I forgot...
man literally said: DID YOU THINK KILLING ME WOULD MAKE ME DIE?
I havent played Honkai impact but i really love how Star Rail MC treat Welt like their dad, or local friendly neighborhood uncle, or even walking wikipedia. Everytime they saw something strange its all like ," daad what is this..? " on their phone
Having only known Honkai Impact 3rd lore from my roommate, and having Welt as my starter, this video popping up in my recommendations is a big sign I will love him.
Without even knowing Honkai Impact 3rd, I was so excited when I saw his character profile story! He even mentioned that he saved his homeland from, and I quote, "...this energy called Honkai."
I voice Welt and I’m available on Cameo :)
Thank you for stopping by! You did an amazing job with Welt's voice! I've been playing through the Beta and I can say with confidence that it suits him very well.
Oh my God, Lord Homu, the lord of Honkai lore himself has been noticed!!!! \o/
Hello! Just wanted to thank you for your work. I'm playing honkai since 2018 and i understand the story better with your help now. Thanks again!
I think Anti-Entropy is connected with Star Rail. In APHO they've mentioned that Anti-Entropy got disbanded, in Star Rail you could see Tesla & Einstein on Welt Yang's splash art. Perhaps this group travel to different dimension?
Not disbanded but merged with Shicksal
Merging processed are explained in current hi3 stories.
AE has no more reason to exist since Otto is gone and Teririn is the overseer. They just returned to what it used to be, part of Shicksal
@@yukirinbushida605and it's back in 2.0
Man i have been searching for a reviewer reviewing honkai lore for 2 years
and you are the perfect channel to do it.
Love your videos, keep up the good work My dude.
Thank you! :D
i feel like welt was such an underrated character, but thatnks to honkai star rail now he got some spotlight 🍷🗿,i also really like his design
This video was really helpful. I just got back into Honkai recently, including Star Rail, and it’s been awhile since I read the comics. Some of them I hadn’t even read until a few hours ago. This helped sort out the timeline in my head a lot! He’s always been one of my favorite characters but so far in Star Rail I’ve come to like him even more. I’ve also found I relate to him a lot in the way he views the world
Man fought a god in space, technically died and decided to become a substitute teacher after💀💀
Otto being called a professional clown is so good 😂💕
One of his alias is literally clown alpha
i love that honkai star rail has allowed me to passively absorb some knowledge from honkai impact 3rd as well to understand welt's lore
anyways, i love this grandpa dearly, i'm glad he came home from standard
You don't understand 1% of honkai impact lore, not even the surface, Honkai impact lore isn't just welt yang backstory, is Divine Key, Second Eruption, Imaginary tree, Sea of Quanta, Flame chasers, Fire Moth and a lot more, quit pretending you understood everything about honkai impact without even play it.
@@dave1346yeesh. Gatekeep central here
@@dave1346lol you shared my sentiment. Agree.
@@saddany3254 These HSR players are something, bet they looked at one single animation about HI3 and immediately they know exactly what's happen on the game 🤦♀️ that's why I didn't liked the fact that HSR is linked to HI3 bc I know I would see comments like that. They think they know basic honkai impact lore knowledge bc they watched a video explaining a single character backstory that ain't even important for the lore development outside of Bronya character growth lmao.
@@dave1346I like star rail, what I don't like are these players pretend they know anything about honkai just because they play Star Rail. The fact is, big part of star rail players are from genshin, they never touched HI3rd at all, it's like "hey we're bored, and now there's cool looking game that looks similar with Genshin and with Honkai labelling on the title, let's try it" and then suddenly boom, they're one of us now 😂 now it's 1.4 in star rail, and they never mentioned about Honkai at all, not even once, nor have they ever insinuated it. Hence I always refer it as Star Rail, not Honkai Star Rail.
This is happening too in the RUclips and twitch content creators. Most, if not all star rail content creators are literally also a genshin content creators that never touched HI3rd in their life, but now they're calling themselves honkai players. There is absolutely nothing wrong with it... but Idk something inside me just don't accept them.
Also it's so cringe when all of those genshin/star rail content creators/streamers got sponsored from Mihoyo to watched the recent HI3rd concert and pretend they know and care about what's going on lmao.
Don't get me wrong, I love Genshin and Star Rail... and that's another thing about HI3rd players. Lots of us actually play all three games, Genshin, Star Rail and, HI3rd, so we don't talk from our ass when we talk about Genshin and Star Rail because we play them aswell. Whereas genshin/star players that only play those two games. It makes sense, people most likely don't try the old version of something if they already use the newer version. It's like people that already have iPhone 15 wouldn't bother trying IPhone 13. That's not a perfect analogy because genshin and star rail aren't HI3rd successor but you get the point.
Sorry this turn into a big essay.. I'm passionate about this stuff 😂
I hope we can get character quest like in genshin. I feel funny if we can have story honkai character but in star rail
There are some quests in Star Rail that are similar to Genshin's character quests, but it's for a limited number of characters right now. (Natasha, Hook, Asta and Clara if I remember correctly) After you complete them, the characters can come and visit you on the Astral Express.
There are character quest, called companion quest, but only limited to landau siblings, Clara, nat, hook, Arlan and asta. But it's quite possibly they will add more in the future
@@justanewbie972 i think for Welt Will be more like main story
@@MbahtedjoOfficial yeah, same with himeko or march and Dan heng
I just got Welt as my first 5 star and I knew nothing about him except he's from honkai impact and he's like zhongli from genshin impact, until I stumbled upon this video and learn about his lore. I just wanna say, WTF bruhh. He's a fcking protagonist... or former protagonist to be exact. What a chad and I regret nothing when I got him. I'm so glad I got him.
Take care of our boy Welt, he deserves it😎
Coming back watching this vid again Otto being "Professional Clown" Still gets me 🤣🤣🤣
I've never played Honkai Impact, so learning of this is interesting, especially since he's the same character, just in a different universe. It led to me learning that Cocolia, Bronya, and Seelie are just alternate universe versions of Honkai Impact characters. Where Cocolia didn't run an orphanage, but she adopted Bronya, which led to Bronya and Seelie not to grow up with each other, but that's where some of Star Rail's differences for them.
Woah congrats, you just discovered the true Honkai game, I mean, HSR there's nothing about Honkai other than the characters, if you thought that HSR is the OG game I'm really sorry to you, you're losing a lot.
i really hope einstein, tesla, void archives or carole make an appearance in honkai star rail especially because of the teaser animation where both welt and carole were seen in the train.
Reburn is concept, it's not canon so carole is unlikely to be with welt
@@kimalkim7718 itd be cool tho
@@kimalkim7718they can make Carole a playable character joining the Astral Express in the future. Taking into account the Sky People and Aeon threat, they might need more help in the future, which includes HI3 world.
My theory/hope is that Welt encounters HSR Tesla and is reminded of the guilt he feels about leaving everyone behind, then has the opportunity to save Himeko's life thus fulfilling his purpose for being here. He is then given a chance to return to the HI3 universe which he accepts after a tearful farewell with the Express crew and HSR Tesla
To be fair Welt isn't the Father/Husband of the year.
Thank you so much, I really enjoy Welt in Star Rail but I've tried Honkai 3 on multiple occasions and can't get into it - it's very overwhelming with a lot of tie-in media and it's unclear what order to look at everything in, and the gameplay isn't really my thing compared to a turn-based game like Star Rail, so having quick summaries like this is incredibly useful. I really love lore and worldbuilding and want to know about Star Rail's connections to HI3, and videos like this are my best chance for that! Much appreciated.
I am very confused on everything that you explained but I have a new appreciation of Welt. Glad I pulled him. Also his lines aren't corny.
I knew nothing about him before Starrail and he is still one of my favourite characters.
He's super chill, knowledgeable, dependable and his English voice acting is my favorite in the whole game. I doubt there are many people who actually dislike him.
i didn't know that the sky people want himeko dead? kinda sad if all himeko in a different universe has the same fate, anyway thanks for the vid as always
Came across this video from Honkai Star Rail and just wanted to let you know that this is the video that convinced me to play Honkai Impact 3rd, so thanks for that! Just beat chapter 31, this game is wild.
Gonna binge watch all your videos once I beat the game, gonna be great lol.
My theory:
I think the invasion Welt and VA did on the Alien ship is not that far after APHO 2, because from Bronya's max relationship dialogue she said that Squad 4 meet the Sugars and I assume ask them to help Welt Yang in some way, so that's how the Sugars found them.
Also very confused that in APHO 1 we saw VA talks with Welt on the train with Joyce but then VA appears in APHO2?? Where's Welt and Joyce then?? Find out in APHO 3 i guess
Apho 3 will huge explain about Lores connections with HSR and all the shits that were hidden from us also Kiana returning home soon too.
I rlly love him, he's so inspiring. Being able to play Welt was one of the reasons i played hsr later
I will still maintain that Welt is Doctor Who in the HI3rd bubble universe.
Calling Tesla his wife really got me XD. Good job with the video.
Welt and Tesla married in APHO and they adopted Welt Joyce's clone as their son
@@reneko I knew about adopting the clone. But him marring Tesla is something new to me.
But he really did marry Tesla
Technically, it was never confirmed that it was Tesla, but due to the description given in game, it's most likely her.
@@HomuLabs Guess we learn something new everyday...
really informative video thanks and the ending was really funny xD
love how he can just recreate his body with the herscher of creation since you have to know what youre making with it means welt knows himself very well
“Refers to Jesus” shows Elysia-
Couldn’t have been more accurate
Thanks grampa homu for explaining daddy welt. New to the channel and Im havinga blast bingeing your channel
Man i hope we'd get another 5 stars, Welt but prime Herrscher of Reason Welt.
Thank you for this, I didn't play HI but Welt really caught my eye as soon I saw/heard him. 😁 He has a very cool story and more to develop as well.
“jesus”
shows elysia
sounds about right
TL;DR
Was part of an explosion caused by a good "bad" powerful person, helped good "bad" powerful person, became good "bad" powerful person's successor, was able to create anything out of thin air, rebelled against big unethical company that owned half the world, became a teacher, met mini candy balls, helped mini candy balls survive, disappeared, got stuck in Hell if Hell had a lot of those mirrors you see at fun houses & if the demon was a big snake from 50k years ago who was also stuck, broke out of Hell thanks to his new successor, raised his successor, gave up life and made anime, then got saved by the same mini candy balls
Side note, why do we have 3 Himekos now lol
As a matter of fact, we have a lot more than three. :))
@@HomuLabs I'm sorry? 😭 I assume it's Star Rail lore? I haven't started anything on that game yet, and I can't think of another Himeko in Hi3
@@horizon146 all the Murata Himeko's I can think of off the top of my head.
Main timelines:
Honkai impact 3rd Himeko
Star rail Himeko
Genshin Murata (mentioned by name in the genshin Manga as well as a description regarding having red hair)
Side timelines that should still be canon:
Sanguine nights Himeko (has the other half of the photo that welt has in alien space)
Honkai kingdoms pirate Himeko (the one native to world 311, where Kongming originates)
Minor possibly non-canon Himekos:
Cooking with valkyries Himeko
Evangelion Himeko
Wonderland Himeko (from that one fairy tail event where captain and bronya got sucked into a video game)
And probably more minor cameos in both captainverse and non captainverse events but don't really have any relevance.
@@t0x1cfire75 Don’t forget GGZ Himeko ^^
@@t0x1cfire75 You forgot Previous Era Himeko.
How did welt maintain his form while honkai energy sealed in the moon? I mean even bronya and mei are barely have herrscher power left yet welt whose the consciousness are part of reason core still can construct star of eden
I mean, he created a normal functional body for himself. I don't think that it functions on Honkai Energy. Though I still don't fully understand how he stopped aging. Also, there is still enough Honkai Energy on Earth for them to be able to use weapons and battlesuits, so I would imagine that it isn't that far-fetched for him to create a Star of Eden.
@@HomuLabs In Alien Space, VA remarks to Welt that he'd survive as long as his Herrscher Core did, so apparently the Cores just stop the aging once the person is fully grown, in addition to letting them survive without things like air. It came up in another manga as well that I remember, but it was one of the less-canon ones I think(The one with Sakura and Teri's stigma issues). As to how he has a Core as well as Bronya, I just attribute it to Truth-Gundam Bronya making him a spare to make life easier after the Moon business was wrapped up. Considering they can make Divine Keys, which contain Cores, I see no problem with Truth Bronya who has a complete mastery of the power making an empty Core for Welt to use.
@@akifox2485 yea they completely forgot about Theresa and Sakura stigma. Sakura still living in a stigma space. In Sakura samsara, The 12th herrscher (Higokumaru) tells her to use the 12th power to project herself into the real world but Sakura said something along the line "even if I do that Kallen is no longer alive" or something like that. I was hoping Sakura appear once again in the main story but I don't think that will happen since we already come to the end of part 1
@@akifox2485 i remember bronya doesnt have a core anymore, in apho va boss fight he called her the former herrscher (va referrs to welt as the first herrscher) so she probably returned the core to welt
luckily I played honkai impact and I will say, words cannot describe how happy I was to see welt in the game much less get him.
A true fighter and on top of that a Latino dad, the complete combo
Homu Labs can you make a video about Kevin life?
I will surely make one at some point.
Noice
Wait, so HI3rd Welt Yang and HSR Welt Yang are actually the same dude who traveled between dimesions? God damn!!!
to clarify welt wasn't the first herrscher that faught for humanity. he is the first known herrscher that faught for humanity. elysia was the first herrscher that faught for humanity but didn't wanted to take credits
Elysia was in the Pervious Era. Joyce was in the Current Era. And while, yes, technically, Ellie was the first Herrscher to not be influenced by the Honkai and she is the reason why the Herrschers of the New Era ca have a free will, I didn't want to overcomplicate things for that didn't play HI3.
@@HomuLabs oh I see :D
Welt left for milk but ended up at the Milky Way instead.
Thank you for the amazing vid. I love welt yang
Ok, so I got into honkai and I wanna know more of Welt Yang, he's so old in HSR and he's such a mysterious man so ty for this video
The Herrscher was a girl named Sirin, who did nothing wrong :D
Right... Nothing wrong with killing innocent people
@@renekoyes nothing wrong with experimenting/torturing a young girl
@@reneko It's all because of Otto
It's like calling Collei a criminal in Genshin, she was crazy because Dottore experimented on her
I love him as a fan of Games of Hoyoverse..Honkai Impact..Starrail..Genshin..Tears of Themis (but of course can't play GGZ back then)
BUT yoo..
I always felt bad the male characters like Welt or Kevin in Honkai just..ughh..I want them to be permanent playable so bad!!!....they're literally proviiding so much coolness and lore just as much with the girls/valykyries that were playable soo...May I say this recccommendation made my day man!!!
I keep watching lore videos from various creators on Honkai 3rd Impact, & its making it more & more temping to just play it lol
Thank you for the description about Welt tho.
I didn't play HI3 despite I play HSR too.
Also fun fact in Xinzhou Luofu region one, we have Luocha that looks like Otto (yellow long hair).
Probably a coincidence.
Luocha is just an AU version of Otto. He has very similar vibes with Otto during the Shattered Swords Visual Novel.
Fun fact! Luocha is apparently a translated version of Raksha. Which is the nickname he chose back then. When Dan Heng asked Sushang if she has ever met her. Sushang says that she has never met him but feels like she has and somehow knows him.
These little easter eggs is what I enjoy so much in HSR. So many connections, so many references. In hope of maybe they can reference Kiana as finality or something.
@@camaela18 incredible how my dreams in honkai (have otto and welt as playable)are true in SR
Thank god I found your channel, you've done really well regarding recap honkai stories. Here, have a sub from me.
so thats why after I got Himeko for losing 50/50, Welt come home as the second 5*. I literally now have a whole Astral crew to start in game
Awesome video as always! And ye, Welt really is the GOAT.
By the way, will you be covering the other characters like durandal, revan and etc???
At some point, probably.
welt is like a superhero who jumps on every world to save ppl lol, maybe soon he will jump to Genshin universe to save traveller and paimon. I think welt is da wei in honkai universe, he literally wants to be isekaied but knew its impossible so he decided to create Welt based on him and what will he do if he isekaied loll
Precisely lol
Tesla: Tax evasion is a crime, Welt!
Welt: IT'S AN OBLIGATION!!
Good thing he became my first 5 star in HSR
Now I want him more in Star Rail
I eyes about to pop out of my head cuz of that last part
14:00 welt married tesla!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not confirmed, but heavily implied!
As someone who has never play Honkai the third
I feel like playing it just for the lore
I looked this video I had no idea the honkai lore was so cool I look forward other videos from you
First arc of penacony done and I'm STILL waiting for some Welt action screentime
They teased us saying he would come to help should the worst happen, and HE DID NOTHING
I just wanna see his powers in action, man
I don't play HI3, but I already liked him from when I saw how he carries himself.
I never played honkai impact but this video made me want to pull for welt
another awesome vid brody.
I just got into star rail, and this video really answered all my questions on this character, I really enjoy your editing style and you made me chuckle a couple of times throughout the video. Excellent job instantly subscribed buddy
