guess the genshin character by the demo theme!

[@joedalton155]

What makes this challenge difficult is that you have to guess during the buildup, before the actual recognizable melody of the theme kicks in

[@i.t.s.s.i.l.v.e.r]

true😂

[@rolistefanghien]

Real

[@bubbag02]

That might be true for some songs but the sometimes the buildup happens to be my fav part even more than the drop so I recognize those right away. Examples are Faruzan and Raiden's theme.

[@ghiahrim248]

Mona was not easy, but i still got all of these

[@octobsession3061]

that is a better way to listen to the music

[@glam4663]

Me: oh this should be easy, I have a whole Spotify playlist. Also me: gets most of them wrong.

[@ridzlynn8093]

lmao its because its not the iconic parts that is in the countdown, i only remember most of them during the "iconic" parts but usually the moment the iconic part appears, the countdown finished

[@bounds.astroe]

it's most likely because he put the worst part in the countdown

[@cosette0709]

I have a Spotify playlist too nyahahaha. And i've watched the trailers multiple times

[@kolapsg7748]

I only know people who on my list lately I started to like nilou and candace IMO their trailer doesn't make the song pop out I only like it after I listen them without watching trailer I'm able to guess these people : baizhu, alhaitham, faruzan, yao2, hutao bc they're on my playlist (ofc without playlist I can recognize hutao ost)

[@tempestshadow5152]

⁠@@bounds.astroe If you consider a part of the track the “worst part” and you only listen to certain parts of it, then you’re not really a fan of the music. You’re obviously someone who got most of these wrong 😊

I think EVERYONE should know hu Tao’s demo song

(dont know if he is here im just starting the video) but for me my unexpected banger ost is heizou, the other day i started listening to all of the demo osts and i had to play it twice

If you liked Mika's, try also Dehya's (Fervent Flare)

[@hayliannn]

I love mika’s

Mika is like a the anime fairytail ost

[@TurtlesPancake]

its so funny to hear the dramatic orchestral music of Neuvillette's theme and then BOOM. melusine birthday art 💀💀💀 total vibe shift

[@helenaliu959]

I think what’s fascinating about these is that it can be a great test for your instrumental recognition. A lot of these build-ups could at least plant you in the right nation before you got the character. That being said, I still failed miserably on Kuki, Ayaka, Mika & Mona’s lol

[@BAVy11037]

They can, that's why I guessed the wrong character from the same nation 👍

@shi-chan5779 once I lost a round of this theme guessing game. Albedo's theme played from the start and I had a feeling the moment it started but I didn't wanna guess too soon, but the albedo senses were tingling.

I remember being blown away by the demo music as far back as Venti’s demo, and since then have always paid attention to the music surrounding this game, though it has waned recently. While the quiz itself was easy, I feel like I regained some of that admiration and awe for the music, thank you!!!

[@emmica1229]

Shinobu’s is amazing. Also at the first beat of wriothesley’s, i recognised it immediately. Playing it on loop when studying does help HAHAHA

[@zavodila9279]

Man, the demo music has a lot more depth than I originally thought. The only reason I recognized Kuki Shinobu was because her's had a similar leitmotif to Itto's theme, that sort of whistle that plays right before the timer is up

20/20 little bit of a struggle on mona's one since its sounds so similar to alot of the early demos but since im so addicted to the themes i figured it out soon enough

I was able to recognize all of them but 3 took me a few seconds longer than the alotted time to come up with the name so I had to pause the countdown to make sure I was able to come with the name before revealing the answer. So it wasn't quite a perfect clear for me. That said, I've watched way too many demo reaction demos that the demo music are pretty ingrained into my head making it near impossible for me to guess wrong.
