Anime Fan Reacts to EVERY Genshin Impact Character Trailer (Fontaine & Natlan)

[@ChocolateKieran]

We are FINALLY caught up with every character in Genshin so far! 1000 likes and I'll react to all the version trailers from Sumeru onwards! I'm doing some grinding in the back so I can finish Inazuma and continue to story over on Twitch too!

[@MegaDuke4life]

@@ChocolateKieran you thought. Xilonen happened lol

[@strawcold]

Some of the other dendro characters also actually have something techy or digital going on. They just didn't lean into it as hard as they did with Kinich. Nahida has keyboard presses and mouse selection in her attacks. Also her whole pretend camera thing and the ground effects present when you're in her burst Kaveh has that scifi toolbox thing (literally just B-12 from Stray but without the smarts and not much sentience) Alhaitham uses holographic mirrors instead of plant imagery

[@determination2294]

Kinich is dendro because the dendro element is associated with knowledge and technology, a lot of dendro character have skills associated with technology and Sumeru is known as the nation of wisdom.

[@ChocolateKieran]

Ahh that makes a ton of sense, thank you!

[@igorzharenikov1812]

Its a shame that the strike had to happen, because I would love Kinich's trailer in English

[@Talguy21]

@igorzharenikov1812 Hopefully once things settle down they'll release an English version like they did with Venti back in the day

[@baguette_connoisseur]

i swear i see this type of comment under every videos that include kinichs trailer. he's not even saying that much in the trailer? it's not like they swapped his whole in-game lines from english to other language. i wonder if it's because there wasn't anything else to complain about because yknow genshin players always has something to say lol

[@deductionsdiary105]

@@cannottea or maybe because people like his eng dub? The same way people kept glazing over jp dub?

[@RahRizzle123]

Kinich's skill and burst do look pixelated in the game along with Ajaw. Ajaw is a special type of saurian/creature that naturally make him a pixel character its kinda silly but so cool

[@ChocolateKieran]

yeah I tried his character trial after this and it caught me off guard a little! it’s unique but also interesting how much it reminds me of the start of the game 🤔

[@RahRizzle123]

@ChocolateKieran I unironically think his trial shows his skill off awfully(like exploration wise) it's so confusing but in the overworld it's fun

[@Nil_Sama]

​@@RahRizzle123 True. The trial space is so confined and narrow (unlike Mualani's) that you can't get a good handle on just how far you could grapple with it. It felt wierd when I tried his trial but once I got him and used him in the overworld, it felt much better.

[@mynameisbonbon]

Arlecchino is the only character I every stockpiled for. I saved up for like 4 months straight, had like 400 wishes. Got her to C3 and got her weapon

[@ChocolateKieran]

DAMN, I respect that! I wish I had the patience 😭

[@killuad0]

i saved for 2 months and got her c1 and weapon, prioritized scythe because of style points

[@euriekun9420]

We're eating good tonight

[@ChocolateKieran]

LET'S GO!!! 😤

[@DanaOtken]

* Sigewinne: Explained more comprehensively in-game, but a couple of points should be clear just from what you've seen. Melusines have different eyes, extra sensory organs, and wear significantly simplified clothing; their flippers are clearly built for underwater rather than putting on clothes that are probably remain an inconvenience: it's a reasonable assumption they're naturally aquatic and wear clothes to better blend into a human society. Sigewinne shares most of these nonhuman traits despite having full hands; while wearing more complex clothing is reasonable the candy colour scheme and a lot of the accents are clearly deliberately modeled to make her look like a character from a children's story; she enjoys being thought of as cute and harmless and isn't bothered by violence in her vicinity... which invites further suppositions. * Emilie: The primary chemical interaction of perfume is the evaporation of oils into the air to spread scent, which also causes the balance of scent to slowly shift downwards from the top to base notes. The scents in a good perfume are usually too varied and complex to work well if they're all deteriorating at once - and if a scent isn't deteriorating you can't smell it - so the balance between scents and the decay rate is what makes the creation of perfume into an art requiring science. Sweat causes the skin to emit oils, which not only evaporate themselves but mix with all the oils in the perfume and entirely throw off its scent; you can usually assume the heavier the perfume the worse it'll stink on somebody sweating. * Natlan in general: Characters glowing is usually caused by the use of phlogiston paint - especially tribal body paint. The local Pyro is a bit different the same way Fontaine's Hydro is a bit different; the energies aren't really circulating through the world the way they're "supposed to be" due to an important historical difference, and the alternate system developed to do the nation's part of the basic work of keeping the world together has led to phlogiston: a semicorporeal energy which is like liquid Pyro marinated in the subconscious of Natlan natives. It's the main thing causing the psychedelic cartoonish effects in the world (although Kinich having a Dendro Vision greatly increases the scope of what's going on with him). Natlan uses graffiti as a major local art style, and every single native wants to be a hero, which has a lot to do with what you're seeing. Natlan is also apparently "JRPG airship time", when getting from point A to point B is no longer considered a legitimate obstacle. We are indeed getting characters with mildly OP traversal powers (more so in Natlan where phlogiston can fuel them), and the Travelers are also getting a way to match those inside Natlan. Personally, I've gotten good enough over the past two years to not really value any of these - getting past a cliff or a lake doesn't feel worth the effort of switching characters anymore - but it seems to attract new players.

[@GentleIceZ]

So the shark is Mualani's Elemental Skill, and not only can you ride across the water as with it but she also has a passive that makes it so she consumes less of the energy she needs for surfing when riding over water (it's an energy unique to only Natlan characters). You can actually ride for about a minute or so when you're in Natlan, since you're given Natlan extra energy there

[@mystixrias]

FYI Arle's weapon is not a fully scythe, it only became a scythe-shape in Arle hands

[@squaremage]

Arlecchino is the one turn that weapon into Scythe, so it's a package deal. Welcome back Kieran.

[@yuikitsuneko]

The thing I like most about Mualani is that her English VA is the one who did the voices for Sothis and Morgana

[@ChocolateKieran]

I don't know how I dind't pick up on that! LOL When I heard Sothis in Three Houses I instantly heard Morgana so I'm surprised I dind't notice 😂

[@moommooo]

Even if you don't have Kinich and Mualani. The game let's you use that skill exclusively in Natlan in other ways so players wouldn't feel left out (also since the puzzles and some areas require those skills). Tho Kinich and Mualani's skills are heavily nerfed outside of natlan due to Natlan having a special extra traversal skill stamina bar

[@MoeAnims]

I was playing genshin and checking my phone at the same time Kieran uploaded a new video about genshin!

[@ChocolateKieran]

now that’s some good timing 😂

[@justsomeguywholosthismusta8495]

Every bow character in Genshin: *Nah we ain't scared of Clorinde.. Bruh she uses swords* Meanwhile Clorinde: *[Jake Gyllenhaul movie scene flexing pistols and different guns meme]*

[@LittleMissValentina]

Arlecchino having a Scythe and possibly being Itachi Uchiha were the 2 reasons I downloaded and started playing Genshin on her debut

[@theuone8828]

Im amused that your first reaction to Sigewinne's ult was Injection Fairy Lily's picture too lol.

[@ChocolateKieran]

Literally was so hard not to see it! LOL You thought so too?!

[@Schimyping]

In Natlan, you Don't need characters for the traversal Mechanics. They are accessible through the game naturally. The characters just have the traversal mechanics built into their abilities

[@manson1390]

Pulling in the weapon isn’t too bad anymore since its now guaranteed after losing once

[@ChocolateKieran]

I watched a video about this recently! changes after the Staff of Homs situation right?

[@yohann1252]

@@ChocolateKieran no it changed in version 5.0 for anniversary

[@Riyomen_Sukuna-t9o]

I got kinich and Raiden kinichi is so fun to play you can doge any attack with him

[@obrians-brown1307]

i didnt get Arlechinno weapon sadly. Your reaction to the guy being healed in Sigewinne trailer had me wheezing.

[@ChocolateKieran]

Glad you got a good laugh out of that 😂

[@ZenoDLC]

Ajaw, Kinich's companion, is basically season 1 Kurama, making Kinich himself basically Naruto with Sasuke's personality

[@lonewolfjedi493osswfan]

I skipped Chiori before I knew that Arlecchino was coming after her, glad I did cuz I really like using Father and I hear she’s coming back for a rerun soon

[@ChocolateKieran]

GANG I'm tyring to get Raiden Shogun right now, but If I' lucky I can go for both!

[@lonewolfjedi493osswfan]

@@ChocolateKieran Good luck on getting them. I have both as well as their weapons

[@markvicferrer]

Yeah, the melusines are basically lalafells. 🤣 Melusines have different tastes compared to humans, Lynette is messing with the other two.

[@minx7471]

2:04 The weapon is quite bad for other characters but her so if you want to pull that weapon just for her, I hardly recommended

[@Bukidsm]

I think he wants it cuz it's a scythe, but it's a lance, it only transforms in a scythe in Arlecchino's hands. Other weapons do the same, but not they don't look as good as Arlecchino's signature weapon.

[@jasmine9581]

( 0:02 love their voices...wish they'd tweak the subtitles 😅 but ig the sentiment is close enough in most places -- plus I haven't heard the CN so idk which on is closer

[@LordItachi651]

3:43 that was me in a girl version

[@KuneSakeSRWSCS]

I actually don't watch this type of video reacting to Genshin trailers cuz it will idk spoil the characters and story to me and I really don't want it but know that I've finished the story in natlan I'm fine with it Also Ajaw (the pixel thing) is so selfish and always thinks his above all🤣🤣

[@ChocolateKieran]

That's valid! These things usually get me more excited about playing and catching up but I totally get your perspective 😁 Yeah it's kinda funny hearing that personality with Naruto's voice LOL

[@Kewpiedie]

I think if Genshin Impact if make in anime version their level comes to fight like Bleach or Maybe Naruto level.

[@janhenrikolsen5477]

I’ve played FE: Three Houses, and I see what you mean with Sethos and Claude, but also since I play Genshin I can also say absolutely not. P.S. Wriothesley’s VA is actually Joe Zieja - CLAUDE’S VA!

hey Kieran, any plans on playing Tekken 8's DLC episode?

YES! I literally didn't know it was happening until I saw Maximilian Dood's upload though and already had my schedule 😭 I gotta try and figure it out soon!

@@ChocolateKieran alright, I tried it and Lidia and Eddy were so fun to play imo

[@F1ash1056]

ok, I have nothing against comparing characters or some elements with other games or different media, but this is literally every other word! Now it’s just becoming unbearable to watch, it’s not a reaction, but a sheer number of all kinds of random names and references to everything, its okay and smart, when can you notice really similar character types or some real references in the game, but you cram references to every word you hear that can be in any media or real life! I'm sorry, it really hard to watch for me this “reactions”

[@ianseff5627]

It's like he's an alien that learned about this world through anime and games

[@ChocolateKieran]

that’s totally okay, no need to watch if you hate it or find it unbearable ☺️ that’d be a huge waste of your time! fact of the matter is, I simply say what naturally comes to mind as far as comparisons and such so if it’s that obvious to me it's said it’s not exactly “random”. I just fun seeing similarities in things I enjoy, or do so for the sake of just to connect with others who are super into those things so I don’t really have any intention of stopping.

[@ChocolateKieran]

I just actively choose to talk about things I like and find it fun 🤷🏾 but also games and anime have a ton of shared inspirations and riff off each other constantly so it’s always super easy to see comparisons

10 mins in and I had to exit this video. I would give a reason but its very lengthy and dont have the time right now.

[@ChocolateKieran]

Your only other comment here is that you're not looking forward to the video because you don't like my style of reaction so I honestly have no idea why you came back?! Nobody is forcing you to watch if you don't like my style so please don't feel forced. Just stop clicking on them

[@xtremdragon]

@@ChocolateKieran yeah I thought let me give it another try, maybe it might be a bit different this time. But its still the same, thats why I did not finish watching it till the end. So yeah, I'll stop clicking on them in the future.

10 minutes is still a LONG time to watch something you're not even enjoying though so I'm surprised by that LOL
