@@CD-mb4bv could you please shut up, no one cares that you use adblock
Is Scaramouche erased himself would there be a new Scaramouche on the Fatui to fill in the void?
im too broke AAAAA
That's the joy of theory crafting, it isn't... until it is ❤❤❤
Definitely a glitch.
Notes: Eula's name makes sense now because people see she's a Lawrence, ignore her, dismiss her as being just like her not so great family members, and have no idea her lore is actually really important to Mondstadt's history and future story :)
Bruh XD
End user license agreement *eula*
Dainsleif has drip.
Is this true did you do a lore video about her or are you joking if true I'll like a videos about it
Is this true. Did you do a video about this or is this a joke? If true could you do a video.
i like this theory. there’s plenty of glitches in her idle with the looks of pixels and like an error theme. this has to be my favorite theory about her.
plsss i dont want her to die D:
@@moozie996 i feel like she's gonna die, maybe thats why she wanna train her kids to be strogner before she leaves, so they could take over
NAUUURRR I DONT WANT HER TO DIE
@@Sacrationsimping for a ruthless killer assassin is the prime of genshin fandom.
@@naqibfarhan4356 she's clearly not that bad if she takes in orphans and raises them competently. she just doesn't hesitate to do any dirty work either
The scara part for me just shows that this is for the audience not a memory
they could've put any other harbinger there.
@@3XZDgg They could've and his presense helps affirm that this is being told from a third-party omniscient PoV (and also gives us a chance to see him in his Harbinger coat considering we never had the chance previously XD).
@@effortlessfury Also, if it was from her perspective then why did the first scene with the story reading not have her present? Literally, the first scene with "Mother" reading the story babyChino was burying her spider and not present. Can't be her memory.
@@LilianaKali Precisely. There is no single character present in every scene, therefore it is not from any specific person's PoV. Third person omniscient. What this reliably communicates is that this is NOT tampered with in any way and can be considered a "factual record."
@@LilianaKali that, makes sense...
Something I find curious… Is how Nahida explains that fairy tales can be used as safeguards to protect stories from deletion from the Irminsul. It might be a stretch… But what if Perinheri was Peruere’s story… Made a storytale to preserve it.
That’s actually lowkey smart bro 😮I never thought of that😊
That's really interesting
This might actually be true 100% Theres another point about "two worlds" present in both perinheri and arle's description
Also the reference to the hearth
To be honest, the Genshin Impact community is addicted, they get nothing, shitty maps, shitty characters, half of the stories are trash and the community still eats this trash, congratulations guys
As a wanderer main, you unlocked a synapse in my brain that makes his presence in the animation make perfect sense
Wanderer, Yelan, Faruzan, Layla is my FAVORITE Genshin team atm, cause not only is it aesthetic to look at it's sooo fun to play
I mean it could also just be a retrospective since its third-person pov. But that does not discount the theory.
@@Minsleif Based
@@Minsleif the bottle opener at 0:37 is crazy 😂😂
WONDERBROS
One minor theory I saw on social media was that Clervie stabbed herself because Peruere wouldn't do it
right!?!?! it's like why TT o TT
@@Minsleifyea
It most likely is that only. I feel she jumped onto the sword held by Peruere. Some people are also translating Crucabena's words as if she herself was the one to kill Clervie...I mean we clearly see her use hydro or cryo(or maybe both) as projectiles.
Kinda obvious no? Common trope
@@victorchen9170 No it's not thaaat obvious, let people be
That was..an interesting bottle opener
That aside, what you talked about is actually a very good point! Especially the Scaramouche part. Maybe Arlecchino actually IS a Descender, and maybe her remnants in her past life were used to create the Gnoses?
@@cosmicboi1650 that has to be the most hideous theory ive ever heard in genshin. The 4th harbringer being a descender is more random than the most random thing you pull out ur booty
@@user-pp3rm5hs6h no, not really. It could make plenty of sense. We'll just have to wait and see for ourselves for now
@@user-pp3rm5hs6h Why? In my opinion it's not the most random thing.. I still believe that at least one of the harbinger is a descender. Erasing Scaramouche's Past will not just having no consequences for it. Remember what Nicole said and the Harbinger are ahead of us. Just watch it
@@user-pp3rm5hs6h I'm pretty sure the descenders did not make the Seven elements
2:54 That doll clearly meant to represent Crucabena, it has angel halo and same colour scheme as her, angel halo probably represents how she fakes being a kind caring mother. Dottore has no reason to be in that tale and it doesn't look like him.
It could also represent the Doctor considering Crucabena most likely had no remorse to not allow the Fatui to conduct experiments on the orphans. These could be disguised as regular-checkups when in reality they were experimenting on the children.
@@faIsified doll would have red eyes and blue colour scheme if it was him. She was probably experimenting on them herself, her name is inspired by a witch known for making various of potions that grant powers (Ceridwen). I think she was trying to make a descender using similar methods as in Perinheri. We shall see next week though.
the doll is, quite literally, wearing and using a stethoscope. from the lore, it's well known that Dottore has experimented on children from The House Of The Hearth.
It could be true. But to me, it's more likely that the color scheme is just to represent an actual bat, it's just a coincidence that Crucabena also shares the same hair color.
I remember in Nahida's storybook about Scara, Scara was represented as a cat, while Dottore was a crow in a fox costume
imo there's one big caveat to the whole Scaramouche thing: you're assuming we're seeing things from Arle's PoV. But the very beginning of the video shows a scene where Arle isn't even there (her mother telling the story and asking Clervie to check on her), meaning at the very least that part of the story is not from her PoV, but just a recounting of the facts, meaning Scara being there is fine.
Yeah, we're watching a series of scenes from history. Since we're not viewing someone's memories, we see what actually happened, not what people remember happening.
Not really. Scara being there only makes sense when you ignore the lore from sumeru onwards. Could be fanservice or oversight. But turning Arle into a descender is more fun than him and signiora being there to show em in the coat.
@@NewWorldF00land it's 99% just made for fanservice, they chose to show the 2 harbingers that we didnt see in the coats, the one that's coming out soon in Natlan and Pierro.
It could be both from the perspective of arle and third pov. Most animation do that
@@NewWorldF00l I dont think people realize what it means to delete oneself from irminsul. Nicole says "The past cannot be easily changed, perhaps a god may have a 'slim' chance but for anyone else? But the hearts of people can change." The history changed alongside everyones memory but not the past. Its like how your brain conveniently supplements your memory if you forget something.
Ngl, there are so much that's going on with Arlecchino and I'm just eager to know more about her in the actual game, To think that Genshin has mode an animated shoet for Arlecchino alone makes me wish they'll do so for other characters, kind of like how they do it with HSR.
I've seen u everywhere I swear
I would like to add onto the Peruere/ Perinheri/ Pers bit (because I'm getting ready for the next patch by reading up on a LOT of Freminet lore for heaps of reasons) that Pers, ironically pronounced as Père - "Father" in french, is directly linked to Freminet's favourite book, Tales of a Snow-Winged Goose. In which Penguins are directly likened to Outlanders, quite literally stating that "every penguin in the world comes from outer space, far beyond the skies." Now the interesting bit is that, according to the book, Pers was the first of the penguins to learn how to swim/ dive into the sea. Now taking this bit of information into the context you provided, what else is diving if not "descending" into the ocean? And taking this into consideration, the same section of the book also talks about the stars and sky being reflected into the water (quite like Mona explains hydromancy, also giving more points to Scara's iconic line) which is important later, as Pers re-gains his ability to fly by "diving" back into the sky - "the secret to flying is to be light" is another quote from this book. Pers in the story misunderstands it as being light-weight but we've seen Light and Darkness in action before and there's plenty of evidence to suggest both are also elements (looking at Enkanomiya). But I'm getting side-tracked. The main takeaway is that this theory holds up quite well if "Father" (Pers) was among the first to learn how to dive (Descend). Plus, Skirk mentioning that the Gnoses are dead descender remains shortly before Arlecchino lore drops is no coincidence, it's still part of the Fontaine questline, meaning we'll deal with this information one way or another. Also, Freminet is hugely important to understanding Arlecchino, he hallucinates all characters from this book (Pers when he's lonely, Princess Marcotte who is a parallel to Clervie when he's timid and The Fox and Clockwork Guardsman when he's troubled) frequently during different emotional states and also was a part of the Hearth before Arlecchino became the new King. All of the characters have a huge amount of relevance to the Hearth, and the last story in this book (which is also his "special item" unlocked at the corresponding friendship level) talks about a thief who stole and broke Death, as well as a Clockwork Mecha who is starting to forget things and wear down, wishing to die. They're both not allowed to and are cursed with immortality - it's a big big big red Khaenri'ah flag. He also has a lot of information on "Mother" in his profile, I really suggest looking into him a bit before the next update! Cheers!
This is why i love the lore/theorycrafting community. Everyone always has their own theory to share or add to the mix. Was very iInteresting to read yours.
Arlecchino is like the darker version of Elysia from Honkai Impact 3 Both elysia and arlecchino are errors in the samsara. Elysia gave the present Herrscher the will to choose what they want to do.
Arlecchino actually gave me Senti vibes from the start actually…not as unhinged, but equally sadistic…even the red/black effects of their powers and how they manifest weapons with their powers are quite similar…. I guess its Genshin’s turn for depression impact
@@scrappy_horns8139so i am not the Only one how believe what the Herrschers are coming to attack Trevayt
@@scrappy_horns8139so i am not the only who belive what the Herrschers are coming to Trevayt
@@kevinbaumhoer7359 i thought we already had “Kiana” exspy in day one Genshin? 😂 they’re already here
@@scrappy_horns8139 yeah but the Kiana expy only ever appeared in the Begining after it never again im the Story
Come to think of it, Arlecchino gives me Herrscher of Corruption and Sentience vibes. Also the fact that Corruption manifests itself as a crimson red eye is also a weird parallel.
Oooh, there's a Herrscher of Corruption and it's red? (don't know about honkai). That would align really well with the red corruption all over the Unknown God in the opening.
@@amouramarie The Herrschers are pretty interesting. Corruption in particular can shapeshift, infect objects, glitches, as well as warp reality and also edit parts of it as it sees fit. Perhaps the Knave isn’t actually the real Knave at all, but an impostor that’s also a Descender. It’s not out of the realm of possibility since Genshin clearly has links to the Sea of Quanta. As for Sentience, the relation is the presence of feathers and wings. Senti herself is a manifestation of Fenghuang Down, which is a feather that is mystical and supernatural in nature. Her attacks specifically are an almost exact match to Arlecchino’s in color.
@@Lil_Noot For the part about the SoQ, yeah, the Abyss does look connected to it and it's even theorized Teyvat may be a bubble world. Another Honkaiverse lore connection I'd be interested in is if the Fragmentum is similar to the Abyss/SoQ, and if Dain or Skirk is more directly connected to a Path (maybe Nihility or something else)
@@Lil_Noot I've seen Senti in Arlecchino since the very beginning. Remember the white-black-red outfit Senti wore when she was just born? Arlecchino's outfit and color palette matches perfectly with this one. With the feathers and the glitches just adding more to the parallel. If Caterpillar's story applies to Arle as well, then we can remember that Senti was one of the only two Herrschers to be born flawed and leaning towards humanity (even if her ideas to save humanity were extremely questionable). Meaning Senti was a bug in the Honkai from the get-go. There's also the fact that they're both known to be sadistic. And, finally, the fact that they want their will enforced, no matter what. Senti wanted everyone to just act as she wants, with no questioning, and that's exactly what we hear Arlecchino say in the trailer when she tells the siblings trio that children who don't do as told deserve punishment.
@@joyhammer3148Not to mention both Senti and Peruere got release in 4.6...I don't think it's coincidence.
man this is so interesting, good vid
I usually agree with most of your theories, but I just want to say that the animated short is not Arlecchino's memories, they are just showing us the past, the past does not change even if Irminsul is involved. And btw I'm not saying your theory is wrong, I actually also think that Arle is not a being from Teyvat(or anything of the like)but the Scara point does not make sense.
Arlecchino's just glitching cuz she's got bad wifi.
Yesss, I'm so happy made an Arlecchino video! Your theories are lovely as always!
thank you very much! ; - ;
@@Minsleif Of course!
I think the short wasnt a memory but the actual past
but I thought Iriminsul changes history?
@@GenshinNoirit only changes people’s memories of the history
@@GenshinNoir the past still happens, it just changes how people remember them. And to me this short is for the audience and to show the actual events. I could be wrong but that's ok.
i think she'll probably have some connection to remuria which justifies her name being more closely inspired by the latin "perurere" and, while interesting, UERE is likely just a coincidence. if time dilation were at all relevant, it'd likely be used for someone like istaroth rather than arlecchino.
I mean Riaden Shogun/Ei who had no business nor connection about time outside of being emotionally stuck in the past literally traveled throughout all of time and planted the Sacred Sakura. Something else could have existed without any explanation, but people remember them anyway because they came from outside space-time like the Plane of Euthymia. So that kind of thing or similar could happen again. Next chapter's theme is about Rebirth or the theme of a phoenix that rises from its own ashes.
@@FacingVicissitudes the archon whose ideals and nation revolved around the concept of Eternity has nothing to do with time? really?
im as hyped for getting arlecchino as minsleif is for dainsleif 🥰
We could clearly see how much Hoyo invested in Arlecchino through how well her past was built in that short animation, which makes me feel very much looking forward to the upcoming debut to her
It also connects to her introduction when she remembers when she first became a harbinger and scaramouche being in there is indeed very sus.
The assumption you've run with is that the short was coming from her memory, replaying the event. Have you considered that this a was an "in the moment" telling of the story in the present tense? In that scenario, scaramouche didnt alt f4 from irminsul yet and the reincarnated descender spin falls apart. In any case, the reveal is going to be great
Elysia Arlecchino 🤝 Being errors in the code
There's not really a reason to believe the short is being told from the point of view of any particular character, especially when there is no one character present in every scene. It's told from a third person omniscient PoV, therefore we're seeing events as they actually took place. Additionally, Father does not appear to be holding the same tournament that her Mother did. Fighting Mother was not part of the tournament, only the siblings. Arlecchino choosing to fight her children would be for a specific contextual reason.
Maybe that animation is just hoyoverse trying to show us about her past instead of having her talk to us about it(so we can understand her character a bit more)
Didn't Skirk also say something to the effect of the bonds that one had in this world will all turn to curses when talking about the gnosis? If Arlecchino is related to the 3rd descender to some degree it would make sense why a curse is placed on her.
Also noticed that Arlecchino’s and the Unkown God’s powers look very similar. Now this doesn’t have any backing whatsoever, but it’s just something to think about.
unknown gods probably cursed/corrupted
Unknown god power is same like Raiden shougun they both can open portal and walk in a air with bubbles in a leg. You can say that unknown god , Raiden and skirk has same type of portal opening power.
You mean how both Arlecchino and Void Herrsher Kiana exspy has blackened arms and can manifest objects/weapons with same red/black color energy effect? Thats actually plausible and made this curse quite mysterious and intruiging…because there is the Hilichurl curse we’re taught by Dainsleif and then there is Arlecchino’s kind of curse which made her OP…
Hillichurl's do have that too maybe she's prob from khaenriah since almost everyone from khaenriah has that black hands even dainsleif
I think Probley because they Are Heerschers and not Normal People some Heerschers can created Worlds Like Sentience . Who can create full Non exitend worlds in Someone Brain as she controls Sentience itself. Origin i think can also do what
Great theory once again!! Thanks minslief!!
the scara part is not memory its a scene of the past that was shown to us the "traveller"s
I want those voice lines from arlecchino for more lore
Arlecchino fire power to me looks like more like blood. If I correctly remember, when she was announced as playable as the beginning of 4.5, it was said that she dreamed constantly of the red moon, which is also referred to as the blood moon. Since her first appearance in the Winter Lazzo, I thought her winged clothes design and accessories remembered me (like Colombina) of angels. In particular, Arlecchino reminds me of the Powers (an angel hierarchy) since their old representation were of red four wings. Also, she was presented as the Dire Balemoon (which seems as if she is some kind of monster that can represent the astronomical event of the blood moon). Then, if I still remember correctly, in the lore, weren't there like 3 moon sisters? And now only one remains? Could it be that Arlecchino is one of the 2 lost/dead moon sisters that did reincarnate, or was her soul 'forced' to be reincarnated, maybe from one of Khaenri'ah experiments? Could the 3 moon sisters be descenders? And if Arlecchino is one of the 3 moon sisters, then what kind of moon phase or astronomical event (blue moon, eclipsed moon, ... ) did the last 3rd sister represent? Could this be one of the reasons why Arlecchino glitches and is considered an error?
completely off-topic, but your voice is incredibly cute xD I love listening to your videos
CLERVIE 100% killed herself. She walked into the sword
ooh i really like this! i was wondering why she kept glitching in her idles, i legit thought my screen was dying :3 also, i really liked your 2.0 hsr lore video, and i was wondering if you’re going to make more hsr lore videos? like about the lore of the aeons for example (smth i’m very curious about) good luck in the samsung event too!
Love your videos. Thx for the theory
Woww excited for u to win in the competition❤❤❤
I'm so excited to play through her story quest! Hopefully ill be able to today but if not def tomorrow
off-topic, Sandrone is definitely related to Curve's creator. Check the note left behind by the Fatui around the tower of Ipsissimus. Newly added in 4.5 (I think)
Where specifically like at the bottom or what?
@@orangenade3707 it should be at the top on shore. it's specifically on a boat north of tower ipsissimus
Please do make a follow up video on this after unlocking all of arlecchino’s voice lines.Subbed!
OMGGGG UR SUCH A GOOD THEORIST THIS MAKES SM SENSE
I recently found the German Netflix show Dark and it's themes are literally what Genshin is talking about, I suspect it's actually one of the biggest inspirations for Genshin's lore. The main motif of the show is the Triquetra, it's about time traveling, past, present and future being intertwined, fate, endless cycles of suffering, light and dark, travelers, Zhuangzi's Butterfly Dream etc.; All the main themes it's talking about is in Genshin, there's even an important corridor where children crawl through to reach another timeline. I need more people to know about this and do some research.
NOOOOOOO why is this short? I need more minsleif content!
AH why did you end the theory there- i was so into it 😭can't wait for the next theory
me watching the galaxy ad without skipping to see minslief take her selfies 🤣🤣🤣🤣
These Genshin lore masters are like the Star Rail Express, going off the rails
Arlecchino is Khaenri'an evident by the fact that on her voice lines, she mentioned that the Jester recognized her background with ease plus the fact that her weapon is Crimson Moon which is related to the last dynasty of Khaenri'ah.
And she will be relevant again when the Project Stuzha is explored further when we reach Snezhnaya. I think we will have a civil war of some sorts when we reached the last nation because The Knave is not really buddies with the Regrator and The Doctor.
Also you've mentioned about the ember which means "the end of a fire". There's a theory that if Arlecchino is from outside of Teyvat, the passage on the book meant that it was to erase the memories of the adopted through the fire which is to say, the memories from outside Teyvat.
Like the Penacony music in the background :D
Thanks for the new theory!!
Love the pop out Paimon with text
I don't think we were seeing her memories in the song of embers animation thing, it was pretty much "hey she became a harbinger that way, Scaramouche was there, you haven't forgot him even if she did"
Agree. Scaramouche on the video is the time when Arle became a Fatui Harbinger. Not some sort of reminiscene of arle current game event timeline (post scara deletion of himself from the irminsul).
That Dainsleif "bottle opener" sent me! I wasn't prepared! XD
Part of the third descender reborn is A'chino. We came to the same conclusion. **chest bump** I like how MYH introduces us to ideas and themes through side quests. These tasty clues are yumyum
2:50 I honestly thought that this was Harbinger Crucabena because of the way the red fabric matches with her hair covering one eye and two faced nature. also the eye colour and how her outfit kinda matches.
Ayo! Chill with the Dainsleif bottle opener 💀
Shes such an interesting charecter and im so happy her release will be soon, cant wait to find out what she really is
even though this is a lore video, the dainsleif bottle opener got me cackling 😂
Ok, did no one notice the similar colours between Arlecchino's cursegiven abilities, and the Sustainer's of Heavenly Principles cube attacks and portals? It's literally as if the Sustainer gave this curse to her. There are also similar shapes on her hands to the ones on the cubes. Edit: The third Descenders second incarnation being cursed by the Sustainer also seems very very likely and explains the why of Arlecchino's curse.
That Dain bottle opener is crazy
To add to the embers part, we saw in 4.6 stream that she is called "Cinders of Two Worlds' Flames", when she is in her form with bone wings.
that bottle opener was wild lmao
This is such an interesting theory and it makes a lot of sense
Dainsleif bottle opener left me speechless
If she does have a similar power set to imaginary characters could she be from hsr in a similar way well Is from honkai impact
That's one powerful Outlander if she was able to one shot a Harbinger as a KID. My money is on Descender. One thing that really caught my eye though is her Curse's color when it manifests as power; it's Red Black just like when we see the Heavenly Principles at the begining of the game during the fall of Khaenri'ah. And also right before she nukes the Harbinger the way the Square Rocks around her rise up with a red glow remind me of the little glitch-like Branches that destroy Khaenri'ah. Add in that her idles Glitch, the way her Curse flares up on her skin reminding me of "Forbidden Knowledge" spreading like a Disease kind of like it did in the Desert, and the whole Caterpillar other world Questline section. The only issue is she's a child in that Animation, and we have no proof that a Descender has ever been reborn before right? There was a Descender that was unaccounted for if I'm not mistaken...is there a chance that one was Alrechinno?
woah. this was the best one yet
Just FYI: the Imaginary element is based on the concept of Imaginary numbers, not imagination. It is a physical manifestation of complex numbers. It is also equated with the platonic “conceptual space”, somewhere that ideas can manifest as physical entities. Imagination and memories are more connected with the Sea of Quanta - Imaginary Space is roughly the realm of instinct and the subconscious.
Imagine how ironic it would be if Arlecchino somehow fix Teyvat and the rest of the world while being an "Error".
To compare to adventure time lore, then descenders are like the catalyst comets
There's also (in Star Rail) Acheron who has an ult that's different from all the others too (it isn't a normal ult button). I wonder if Genshin could could be a Simulated Universe within Star Rail, but isn't a playable universe since we're already playing it with Traveler...in the form of a different game. Which would fit her theory too.
are you super fan of Dainseif? oh my me too, i'm so excited for his quest
Nahhh the bottle opener is crazy 😭😭💀
10: 48 - So 7 elemental chess pieces were created from an alien corpse. ....I have seen everything.
Wrong from the get go: the “king” must refer to the House of the Hearth, aka the leader of, not the king piece on the chess board. Because it is confirmed that the knosis are the actual chess pieces, and even so, the king piece of the Fatui side should be Il Capitano, or Pierro, not the Knave.
Tyyyyyyyyy Queen you fed us well 🙏🙏🙏🫶🫶😭😭
You might be right because in the knave boss fight her title was " Cinder of two worlds flame"
I think you along with some other people are looking a bit too much into the Scara appearance. We were not really watching Arlecchino's memory. Hoyo was just presenting us with parts of her past as purely as they were happening and that's all. Her animation isn't about finding Scara and Irminsul secrets.
Lemme think a bit further... If she was supposed to become a king, and (as i saw in another theory video) the gnosis of each element represent a king but used as different stuff, then collecting them could maybe make a "king" piece, and if the fatui is looking for a "king" while collecting all gnosis... Maybe arlecchino is one of their failed attempts to create a perfect vessel for their "king" piece... Nvm that would be weird
I left Genshin for a few months and come back to this what the helllll is going on
So, if Arlecchino may be a reincarnated Descender… and the goal of collecting the Gnoses may include reassembling their remains, then Arlecchino’s soul would need to be extracted to be reinserted to her reassembled previous body…
Arlecchino really out here with the Bloodflame Blade build from Elden Ring lmao
okay, okay, I should do the world quest before 4.6 release
3:10 Yeah, I thought that shadow was darker than it should be I'm thinking the pyro element is like an elevated form. Much more controlled and devastating, sort of... out of this world, indeed like an error
5:03 actually when clervie was falling the sword that's stabbed her fall with her but in the next seen we saw arlecchino reflection in broken window and She was carrying a clean sword
Dainslief bottle opener 😂😂😂 that should be your merch 👍🏼
That red tone power seems more like the unknown god.
Something interesting I also noticed watching the video was that the red diamond/primogems that spawn when the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles appears before the Traveler and their sibling in the beginning cutscene is a similar red as Arlecchino’s attacks. It may be a completely innocuous detail, but it’s an interesting one to me.
Well if Arlecchino is termed as a glitch I wonder what the traveller was there's hopefully lot to look forward to especially her curse and her back story before she came to the house to hearth
2:25 i was not paying attention to the story so i was really confused about why the kids were fighting each other all of a sudden lmao 4:43 i found the brief black hole imagery in her character demo quite interesting tbh, and indicative that this idea does have substance. bc star rail has a "quantum" element which is inspired by the imagery of a black hole 6:02 this pronunciation threw me for a loop-
There may be one (although a bit cracked) possibility for Scara/Wanderer showing up. Perhaps over the next couple of patches Buer was able to repair the damage Wanderer had done (she did make backups). He(Wanderer) did wish that the families he ruined would finally know the truth.
the way you pronounce Tsaritsa is flawless!!!
this is such sick theory... now i know why scara is suddenly there:0 i can wait for the update to be available in genshin
In that " Arlecchino's memory with scara". Well.. It's not her memory. It's just a flash back where hoyoverse WANTS TO TELL US that SEÑORA and SCARA is there even before Arlecchino became the new knave!. People HAVING AN ARGUMENTS ABOUT THIS because they understood it in the wrong way! Again! That animation is not ABOUT ARLECCHINO having throw back! If the animations wants to point out that Arlecchino was having throw back memories - She must be included at least on the first scene (as her present self) THE ANIMATION IS INTENDED TO GIVE US (PLAYERS) a new information about HER past! SO SCARAMOUCHE'S existence in that animation is not a mistake! He deleted his existence so nobody in the story will be able to tell that he's been a member of the fatui before Arlecchino joined!. Traveler knew about him but doesn't know about the back story of Arlecchino. So hoyoverse made this FOR US! So kids pls don't be stupid. Stop your nonsense about this thing. I just wamt to make it clear that it's not Arlecchino's memory. Okay?! The other parts of this content is interesting I love it. ❤❤
Arlecchino bossfight looks like lantern's bossfight from honkai impact
The glitch idle reminds me of into the spider-verse, where the characters were glitching due to not being in their own universe
So it took a few watches of "the song burning in the embers," but I think I figured something out. Arlecchino isn't devoid of emotion by choice. She has to suppress them because of her curse. Particularly feelings of affection and love. It's what activates her curse, which in turn increases her power. It's not really clear what the drawback is yet, but I think it's simply that she herself becomes a danger to those she cares for, they may even be instinctual targets for the curse. Even if they're not, it's a good chance they'd be collateral damage in the ensuing destruction. I think the reason she rebuilds the House of the Hearth is because she still cares and still wants to care, but to do as she feels is right, must also become cold and unfeeling in order to protect her charges from herself. She's suffering a similar internal crisis like that of Rogue in the X-Men movies, afraid to get close to people or love them because she might inadvertently kill them with her unwanted power. I suspect that the story boss fight will be caused by a moment where she fails to contain her emotion, and thus her power, and we must subdue her as a result. I don't believe we'll kill her as she seems essential to bringing the harbingers to our side in a future eventual war for Teyvat, but there's a lot of ways it could go.
The best context for the difference between outlanders and descenders… Traveler is a descender Aloy is an outlander Both did not come from teyvat.. but one got a vision and the other had powers greater than archons.
I think Arlechinno's curse is actually the forbidden knowledge. It only stopped making her a hilichurl because she's trying to defy the "fate" that Teyvat has planned for her. It can also explain why she's "glitching" in her idle animation. She's basically an anomaly. So yeah, if someone from Teyvat is cursed with the forbidden knowledge, they will be consumed by it, unless they have the "will to defy fate", like Arlechinno and Dainsleif.
There's been a lot of debate around Clervie's death, with people speculating on if Peruere killed her or if Clervie took her own life. But I think the storybook segment at the beginning tell us what actually happened or at least a part of it. In the story book we see the rabbit that represents Clervie on her knees like she is struggling to stand. The rabbit is also holding a stick which I think represents a sword. Facing the Clervie rabbit we see a rabbit with a Bulle Fruit ornament holding another stick(sword). This rabbit clearly represents the blonde girl we see in the short that also has a Bulle fruit in her hair. I think this is supposed to show that during the battle between all the kids Clervie and Bulle fruit girl fought and Clervie lost
