Before vs After | Reacting to Lament of the Fallen (Honkai Impact 3rd)

Thought it'd be fun to put my first-time reaction to watching Lament of the Fallen and my reaction after playing through Chapter 17 side by side.
And bruh ... I got kinda annoyed at my past self when I was editing this lol. WHY DOES PAST ZKODLA TALK SO MUCH. =_=
Lesson learned, don't spoil yourself! TvT

zKodla before: confused through the whole CG but still got the pain zKodla now: pain doubles through the whole chapter then depressed

[@Kodla]

i only know pain and suffering :-D

[@missmebaby7179]

This is the perfect example of before MiHoYo and after MiHoYo

[@Nataninko]

2 years later I found this video, I've just searched the song in order to listen to it again after the HSR myrid celestia and this video popped out as well as your original reaction to it What a difference between past past zKodia and past zKodia lol😂

[@crescentcrow3826]

I simply love how after discovering the story the only language you know is tears.

[@Frederic_S]

Indeed! 😭

[@raptor1008]

Even it is sad but I love how mei character change from lovey sweet girl to savage badass riding valkyrie ♥️🤣

[@Kodla]

KURIKARA! 🔥

bro she kinda looked like zero two from darling in the franxx

[@raptor1008]

@@mzrsq yes she is ~~ ouhh my just imagine zero two soul suddenly got fall in honkai universe 🤩🤩

[@Gaby-hn4mh]

Lmao i like how confused past zkodla is

[@Kodla]

ngl past zkodla was so annoying tbvh HAHAHHAHA 😭😭

[@imnobodyatall6577]

@@Kodla not rlly, i found your reaction vid really great. And ive been watching your vids ever since! Youre awesome zKodla!

[@Spyduck]

"I'm confused" is the typical answer of every youtuber. What makes them different is sitting through the experience

[@sylveochu7760]

zKodla before: oof this is sad zKodla after: *straight-up just sobbing*

[@Kodla]

LEGIT ME :'DD

[@precious2060]

Just rewatching your old videos and this made me laugh despite the pain lol. Kodla without context talking throughout the video while Kodla with context can't even say a single word because she's busy crying XD I can relate though. Watching LoTF without playing the game made me hyped to try it. I never knew what I was in for.

[@Kodla]

I would’ve never knew Honkai Impact had the ability to make me feel so many emotions :’)

[@woofch.1583]

Recent: knows the feel of their friendship Previous: POGGG what a fight

[@shiraori9721]

The moments of despair and depression

[@Kodla]

Chapter 17 was written so well it deserves an award

[@tigermk3554]

Remind me of that 'before and after Alcohol/Smoking/Drug' meme XD

[@Kodla]

tbh no idea what meme that is but XDD

[@xdragon2k]

This is you before you do Honkai. And this is after.

[@destr0yer0fw0rlds]

Really can't wait until you catch up to the story. I know you've already seen kiana vs HoS, but the context is probably gonna hit just as hard

[@Kodla]

I'm gonna continue CH 18 real soon! :3

[@avinashu118]

Wow ,The difference is huge .

[@Kodla]

Chapter 17 impact 👍

[@MKAZ-_-S]

add context and it can change everything, it really nice idea to make before and after reaction love it

[@Kodla]

Thanks! XD I just got curious as to how I reacted to it previously lmao ... and then i noticed the difference immediately lol 😭😭

[@MKAZ-_-S]

the difference is really clear, even form 1st second :D

[@ChuunibyouBunny]

Lol didn't expect this reactception😂

[@Kodla]

The difference when you don't really know what's going on VS when you experienced pain and suffering :'D

[@danielle6133]

I’m a new captain who just finished getting through the story mode. I got depressed as hell so I I’ve been watching reaction vids to cope This is the best I’ve seen bc the before and after is so accurate!!! 😂 I also watched LotF without context and though I felt the sadness, my excitement for the angst yuri vibe got the best of me so I decided to play. This hurt me more than any of the breakups I’ve had irl lol

[@Nexsus2164]

Honestly, it’s easier to count the number of cinematic cutscenes that don’t make you cry after going through their chapters, if there even are any at all. Because I swear, even the happier ones make you cry out of sheer catharsis, and the MiHoYo writers deserve all of the praise for every work that they put out.

[@599ferrari]

Without context: Whoaaa😍😍 With context: PAINNNNNN😭😭😭😭

[@dean8529]

I just reached this point in the game. Before playing i just thought Mei looked badass in her Herrscher form but it feels different now. I don't care how cool she looks or how strong she is anymore. She isn't badass with that cold look on her face, it's the price she paid to save Kiana ( T ^T)

[@klef8411]

You can clearly see that past zkodla isn't aware of the depresso, and flash forward to the present, you're sitting there as if your soul left your body ages ago :')

[@klef8411]

But we have our moments and after we know the context, the dam just breaks 😭

[@gummiemonkey2022]

Damm no matter how sad this CG makes me. Hearing your confused past self gets me wheezing every time

[@crayonph7103]

As the saying goes, " Shallow brooks babble loudest while still waters run deep". Past reaction got no context that is why its all cool and fun and commentaries on and on but once you get the whole picture and gets all the whys answered; It's like you got hit hard by the Feels Train Express and just stay silent. A very unique reaction video that I rarely see with other content creators and I like it!

[@unclefudge4206]

Past zkodla looks so young and happy. But look at her now, where has the years go.

[@takasakisaito2797]

idk why but i'm laughing and feel depressed here 😂

[@gummiemonkey2022]

Dammm, the realness in those thumbnails PERIODT

[@ariffuuu]

I like how you can clearly see the difference of reaction between zkodla who knows the story and zkodla who is clueless about the whole thing. The reaction is just too different XD

[@imnobodyatall6577]

Dude, your reaction is literally my reaction when i played through this chapter......it was so sad. Before this chapter, i already watched lament of the fallen alot of times and i found the fight cool, but when i actually played through it, my heart sank. Knowing the reason why mei did what she did, just literally broke me😭 so i understand why youre crying here. Let me tell you, when you get to chapter 22, its gonna break you even more. I bawled my eyes out coz of that chapter. Great video btw, keep it up bruv! Btw did you get abyss flower yet? Its already out. Stay cool zKodla! (Also love the difference in reaction from the past you and the current one, it shows how deep the story is in honkai)

[@spookumbookum]

the difference hits that hard

[@Kodla]

Chapter 16 and 17 really broke me man ....

[@idoru__]

every time i think “nah ive seen it so many times, i wont cry”. and i end up crying anyway… (haven’t gotten to this part in the story tho. i think it’s gonna actually break my heart when i will)

[@BlackGhostAngle]

dis is (HI3) lyfe reason i play hi3 because we play the anime also i didn't watch anime anymore due hi3 hits me very hard, joy, tears, excitement, all in there

[@T0M0DACHl]

me reacting to it first hand: *cries >few months later me reacting to it again: *still f@ckin cries

[@megumini435]

BRO THE DIFFFERENCE OMG

[@Kodla]

BRUHHHH

[@hammy420]

i love how before u would talk a lot but after playing ch 17 u became quiet and thats what happened to me too LMAO but yeah ch 17 was just too sad :( i didnt have words to describe it

[@vincdraws4742]

I fucking cried multiple times on this chapter ngl, lotta sad moments on this chapter alone.

[@kur0r0ui]

hehehe Past: always talk and hurts Present: already broken and heart will hurt again twice

[@guy7118]

Before: oh what’s that yellow eye thing, something amazing is going on : D After: *dead inside* *sob*

[@kazukilee7949]

Past zkodla: omg this is so beautiful and intense! Current zkodla : BIG SAD

[@VinhiVici]

I don’t fully understand cause I haven’t played the chapter but watching the time lapse means I’ll be crying with you Sis 😭

[@hunterknight]

Lol the difference 😂, the depressed and painful expression you make. Anyway, a lot of people mad at Mei for doing what she did to Kiana. For me, if I placed myself at Mei place, when you got no other choice and the only thing someone dear to your heart care about is saving people despite knowing they would definitely die... I'll choose Mei's decision too.. Just less the beatings I guess?

[@commanderazhar8503]

zKodla before: Why the heck they are fighting?🤔🤔 zKodla now: Mei, don't go😭😭😭.

[@monocyte2210]

very nice idea revisiting your old videos! then you add the Cry Counter at the side

[@EganCraft]

The first time I watched final lesson and lament of the fallen I felt nothing. Nowadays I can’t watch those without taking the rest of the day off

[@alexsolosm]

This is why people should play the game instead of just reaction to the animatiom blindly!

[@Kodla]

agreee! XDD

ahhh!!!! your crying! sorry didn't notice

also at the part where Mei is getting angry it must be "I only know that deep down inside me, that this fucking world is a piece of trash/shit. If I am not with you!" something like that?

Play the game or at least watch a playthrough for story. Totally worth it.

[@Pudrick]

Ahhh in fact I think the Chapter 18 and 19 is not so attracting for me...But Chapter 20 and later ones are nice as previous chapters in my mind.

I actually already played through CH20 - 23 when it first came out!! and I really liked it too :D
