The Complete Story of Sunday (Honkai: Star Rail Lore)

[@krazy167]

Sunday and Robin are so well written, they are essentially two side of the same coin. I also really love the portrayal of his childhood trauma and how it affected his mindset...absolute PEAK 😭

[@Cadmun]

Robin is an annoying little twat.

[@Bubbleflute]

Sunday had an overly protective motherly vibe towards humans, like he's watching over children who cant quite fend for themselves. He probably saw humans as fragile which made him step into that role of protecting everyone in a dream. His intention to keep humans in the dream was not born out of malice, but out of an overwhelming desire to shield humanity from pain and suffering. Like a parent who shelters a child too much. Because of the charminey dove incident, he like a guardian didn't believe that letting go of the hand is the only way for someoen to learn how to stand. In a way, sunday's actions can be seen as a tragic misinterpretation of love. He thought he was saving humanity from their own fragility, but in doing so, he stripped them of what made them human. This is a crux of his motherly nature, an overwhelming need to nurture and protect, even if it meant making decisions on behalf of others. Sunday wasn't evil, he was a guardian who loved humanity so fiercely that he sought to shield them from pain, creating a dream meant to be their sanctuary, yet in his devotion, he unknowingly sacrificed their freedom. It's a tragic reminder that even the purest intentions can cast the darkest shadows.

Harpy hare where have you buried all your children… Is what comes to mind when thinking about Sunday. He buries his children out of a desire to protect them, but doesn’t realize it’s suffocating them.

[@LadyLunaNini88]

Sunday is just so well written, it's really hard to not love this man. I feel like in my opinion, Sunday is a character that developed the most out of all the Penacony characters; aside from Aventurine (Who's also had great character development). Sunday went from being the one trying to create a paradise that actually worked for a time, to one that lost everything by being rammed by a train and by the Astral Express and also being in prison. Now, he's trying to renew and start all over again while also trying to repent for all he's done til now. Sunday can learn to grow now and honestly, it feels like he's on a journey of healing and inspiration of finding his true paradise. I may have said too much, but I really can't help but talk about it, cause I love Sunday way too much.

being rammed by a train 😭😭 pompom drunk driving

[@Mixtrelle]

unlike Robin, his whole life was trapped in a cage called penacony and gopher wood's ideal took roots deep within him. because of that, his noble goal lacked in means to achieve it, leaving him in contradictions and confusion. I'm glad he goes with the crew, not the IPC, so he can have a clearer view of the worlds and maybe clear his tainted name. sadly Jade is not the type of person who let things go without a gain on her end

[@meghankanotz5589]

My only problem with Penacony is that the dialogue for me, and others, failed to get this story across. Even as I watched this video I had to re-word some things in my head to understand it better. Either way this video cleared up a lot of things for me so thanks! Hopefully the dialogue in Amphoreus will be much more clearer.

One can say if you want to truly to be healed from the wound it is a journey of vulnerability and opening oneself to infinite possibilities 😊

01:44 One day after dinner

[@en_ye1112]

One ☝️ day ☀️, after ⏱️ dinner 🍽, while ⌛️ my 🫵 younger 🧒 sister 🦢 and I 📆 were lounging 🥱 about in Mr. Gopher 🦫 Wood’s 🪵 yard 📏, we 🦢📆 spotted 🐆 a fledgling 🐣 Charmony 🎶 Dove 🕊 all 🕵️‍♂️ on its own 😔. That baby 👶 bird 🕊 was tiny 🐥, it didn’t even ❌ have all 🔄 of its feathers 🪶, and it couldn’t sing 🎶. When we found 🧐 it, it was already ⚠️ on its last 😢 breath 💨, having fallen ⬇️ into a shrub 🌳- probably 🤔 abandoned 🏃‍♂️ by its parents 👨‍👩‍👧. We decided 💡 to build 🏗 a nest 🪺 for it right 🕰 there and then ⌚️. However 🛑, thinking 💭 back 🕰, that winter ❄️ was unusually ⛔️ cold 🥶, with fierce 🐯 winds 🌬 at night 🌙 in the yard 🏡, not to mention 🗣 the many 🍀 poisonous ☠️ bugs 🦟 and wild 🐗 beasts 🐻 in the vicinity 📍... It was clear 🧐 that if we left 🚶‍♂️ the fledgling 🐣 in the yard 🌳, it stood 🚫 no chance 🎰 of surviving 💀 until spring 🌼. So 🌐, I suggested 💬 we take 🛐 it inside 🏠, place 🛋 it on the shelf 🗄 by the window 🪟, and asked 🫵 the adults 👨‍👩‍👧 to fashion 🧵 a cage 🦜 for it. We decided 🧠 that when it regained 💪 its strength 🦾 enough to spread 👐 its wings 🪽, we would release 🏃 it back 🔙 into the wild 🌳. The tragic 😢 part - something 🧠 that we’d never ❌ considered 🤔- was that this bird 🕊’s fate 🎭 had already ⚠️ been determined 📝 long 🕰 before 🕛 this moment 🔴... Its destiny 🔮 was determined 🗣 by our momentary ⏳ whim 🌬. Now 🕰, I pass 🎁 the power 💪 of choice ⚖️ to you all 🫵. Faced with this situation 🚨, what choice ⚖️ would you make 🤔? Stick to 🖇 the original 🏁 plan 🗺, and build 🛠 a nest 🪺 with soft 💫 net 🎣 where the Charmony 🎶 Dove 🕊 fell ⬇️? Or build 🏗 a cage 🦜 for it, and feed 🍽 it, giving 👐 it the utmost 🏆 care 🫂 from within 🔄 the warmth 🔥 of a home 🏠? I eagerly ⏳ await ⏱️ your answer 🗣

Noooooo

[@King_Vavos]

Oh hell nah

[@simpleweeb2257]

​@@King_Vavos what is this i dont understand

[@altherna2999]

An earth shattering realisation that they are twins 😭 also im trying to figure out if sunday ever had lower wings or not ;;

[@jinnah6524]

the twin thing was just metaphorical, i think. sunday and robin refer to each other as brother and sister in english, but in chinese, japanese, and korean, they refer to each other as older brother and younger sister (or younger sibling) respectively

[@mith1783]

Sunday is an older brother. The twins part is a metaphor

[@trollcreativestudios1084]

they are not twins, sunday is older

[@silverjuly9339]

Reminds me of Buzz Lightyear quote : "This isn't flying, this is falling with style"

[@cakefrosting6451]

I never noticed that Wonweek and child Sunday had the same voice… i wonder if it’s possible to check

I see Sunday lore i click

[@wantsomeoreos3467]

Send this to Molly lol she'd be amazed by this tbh

[@vanta789]

1:46 One day, after dinner...

[@RazeluxeMeitzen7]

Sunday is basically victim of years and years of grooming

[@ioannishussein8038]

That was a wonderful moment for Sunday to have a massive story.

[@mayamoon9207]

Ngl I hated Sunday at first. To me he felt arrogant and controlling and like he was trying to prove that his view was the only right view. But with the latest Trailblaze mission I've come to respect him a lot. He's doing his best to right his wrongs and he's not expecting people to just forgive him. He's an amazingly well written character and I really like him now

[@KittyNatiquinha]

Holy shit why does he have do get me so depressed every single time he appears on any screen 😭

[@maninanikittycat4238]

Gopher Wood was the real villain all along.

[@UltimateMixing]

Will you make a video where you compile everything that happned in Penacony from start to finish? Cause tbh I've forgotten a lot haha

[@renflare2570]

On an unrelated note: Will you be doing a summary for the Simulated universe: Unknowable domain?just like with the other 2 other SU expansions summary you did?

[@reuby6726]

Why I can related so much to Sunday, seeing so much suffering around me and he also suffers along , YOu should do another for Aventurine cause he to somewhats shares a similar fate

[@weeefwaff3995]

I do also think that train crashed into him many times in the boss fight is like a wake up call for sunday. Life like to experience pain and struggle which you learn to experience to learn yourself feels living but in the dream, you dont feel like ur living at all rather no pain or struggle means it feels like sleeping- (woops i ended up yapping)

can you do a story recap of hsr ? that would be cool

[@insxnemxnd3127]

Didn't watch fully so here's my thoughts before video: I still don't understand how or what changed him 🗿 for me it's like he changed out of nowhere for me

[@CyraltSamuel]

@@insxnemxnd3127 welp not all things can be explained properly so for now we can just enjoy the story (even me here can only understand in simple manner; people who are corrupted base on Sunday still not fully corrupted due to everyone effort)

[@krazy167]

His defeat because of the nameless was the main reason. It made him realize that his way of attaining his dream was wrong

[@Butterscotch2319]

He had always been someone with a good heart just the wrong approach to achieve his dreams. 2.2 was basically a battle of ideals between the nameless and Sunday which is why Sunday kept asking us what we would do for the charmony dove or what we would do if we were in his shoes when Robin got injured. 2.7 just showed us that he’s on a journey of discovery of himself and of his ideals.

[@jackinuzuki2890]

It is when he got defeated, he saw humans as weak creatures and meant to be protected, even if they are trapped in a cage they can live, since most of the people he interacted with are people who want to escape from reality, prisoners of the dreams and criminals in the sweet dream, he hadn't interacted with humans who want to better themselves or not give up.

[@shabrinaazzahra919]

wait, robin and sunday are actually twins??? 😮 how did u know that. I read the main story but, i didnt find anything about them being twins

[@symmol27]

Gopher Wood refers to them as "twins of Order"
