NATLAN REACTION Ignition Teaser: A Name Forged in Flames | Genshin Impact

[@FaiGal]

Natlan do be giving Wakanda Forever vibes. Futuristic and cultured. I’m really digging it.

[@carriesimkus3168]

1:33 Notice how her voice direction is the same as Himeko of HSR? This also the same goes for JP. I was surprised that her va isn't the same from Himeko HSR/HI3rd, and yet their voice direction is so much alike. I wonder what hoyo is pulling here. But anyway, THIS is probably the most hyped teaser after Fatui's. The soundtrack is EPIC

[@kinginamo000]

that this current pyro archon is related to murata so they look and sound alike

[@TheGelieace]

Prob cos himeko is the previous pyro archon, the current archons (except for venti and zhongli cos it’s always been them), always has some semblance with the previous archons

[@crowkoraki6910]

Cause Himeko's OG JP VA is already voicing Lisa and they can't give her two is what I think they were thinking

[@plang-plang5035]

​@@kinginamo000true and her story is sorta like Miles Morales if you think about it, they're an alternate version but also a successor of a certain character

[@plang-plang5035]

For real bro, I thought they still use the same VA cuz they sound so similar. It's amazing how far their voice range is

I stayed strong for Fontaine... but Natlan has me scared for my wallet. I'm really going to need to pick and choose who I am going for, but I know 100% that I am going for Biker Himeko. Especially if those glasses are a part of the model and not just something used in the trailer for dramatic flare. NATLAN HYPE IS HERE FAM!!!

[@TJ-yc1zq]

I am really looking forward to learn why there is such a generational clash in natlan...i wonder if it's because of old and new pyro archons?

[@Classica_1750]

not only himeko vibes, but i see fu hua vibes on mavuika especially the vicissitude fu hua

[@silhouette9699]

Lucio and his mother

[@deadbob5514]

Seeing as UD is my go to lore appreciator in this space, and probably my fave Gatcha CC in general, I was suprised to find this video to be speculation free.. I'm sure things have been said elsewhere by him or chat though, so I want to add in my two cents as I think I've actually got a good chunk of Natlan's storyline already figured out! Stay with me here, this is a lot of text, but you might find it a little fascinating, who knows? I'll start with the big question most people ask during the video - "Who is she (the archon, Mavuika) talking to, is it us?" I think she's speaking directly to Xbalanque, aka the Pyro Dragon Sovereign! Mavuika says, in short, "What we see ought to be our fate, but for now close your eyes and feel.. for with our blood we will forge our fate" while she's shown facing six flames, each flame with the symbol of one of the Tribes of Natlan in them. The significance of what she says about "blood" and "fate" is related to the ball that they pass around in the trailer; as in ancient Aztec culture they would hold ritual warfare in the form of a sport similar to modern basketball, and the losing tribe's team would be executed and their blood sacrificed to the deities.. Now keep in mind that in the Tevat Chapter Storyline trailer, Natlan's chapter is called "Incandescent Ode of Resurrection"; Incandescent meaning 'Bright Flames/Heat' & Ode meaning 'the story of'. Also, in Neuvellette's description of Xbalanque they are referred to as "One Entombed With the Primal (Primordial) Fire" and in that same dark room where the six Tribe flames are there is a single, huge flame with six different symbols circling it, which if you look closely are the symbols of the six Vishap/Dragon breeds in Natlan! Now I won't go deep into the real world lore of Xbalanque but the tldr is that they are a hero from Mayan myth who helped defeat the Gods of the Underworld. Gods, you say? hmmmm... I think Mavuika is holding the Tournament as a Wargame centered around the ball sport in order to gather the blood (or whatever similar sacrifice medium is needed) of strong warriors and use it to bring Xbalanque fully back to life. I believe that the Fatui have knowledge of ways to revive the dead to some degree based on what we've seen, so they send Capitano as he is their strongest and thus can contribute the most to the sacrifice method as he's so good at combat, and also as a show of good faith to ensure Mavuika hands over the Gnosis after the Sovereign is resurrected. As to why the Archon wants to revive the Sovereign though I can't say, especially since we know NOTHING about her or her past that we could use to gauge her motives, sadly

[@NahualUlloa]

FACELESS CAPTAIN AND HIMEKO!!!??? DID YOU JUST NOTICED IT??? Tournament?? 6 Dragon balls 🐉??? We latin american people LOVE DB. They know...

[@KurouShiro6000]

We're gonna have another Tournament of Power with the other regions

[@leontran1852]

Capitano when it’s windy voiceline: “Hmmm, wind’s howling….”

[@jeyyypeyyy8808]

i have high expectation on natlan this trailer didn't disappoint

[@dinozero2]

And people on Twitter said we will be disappointed with Pyro Archon design. HAH!

[@idkatthispoint-s9s]

Cos the leaks that came out were really bad. She had a medium model like Furina and looked like a Conquistador.

[@IshimurA99]

Although Captiano is a villain, he is very cool, plus the appearance of Pyro Archon makes Natlan more worthy of anticipation than ever.

[@kivvz8453]

is he a villain though 😂😂

[@Adayinthelife-ke4yk]

He is more like antagonist, not villain GOAT

[@catseuphori]

THEYRE SO FUCKING PRETTY OMFG MURATA AND YELLOW CAT WOMAN

Imagine if Mavuika can use her flames to temporarily stop time

[@irizarry801]

Funny fact: Mikako Komatsu (the JP VA of the Mavuika) also voiced Gamo-chan from Nagatoro. There are some similarities in their images.

[@AnonymousKnight-ve3op]

Yo boss, completely unrelated to the video but did you watch the new animation short of PGR (lucia vs Von Negut)? It's cool and has some reference to moon halo.

Theres also a short on the genshi nchannels with all the names :D

[@exploreevery]

🥲 himeko finally

[@Faron93]

The mix between modern and tribal gives me big Horizon Zero Dawn vibes. Utilizing modern tech but still sticking to the tribal heritage. On another note if she is the archon I kinda need to warm up to her design in terms of clothing. It feels too basic? I expected it to be a bit more fancy since Natlan is all about tribes with a modern touch. What do you think fam?

[@NOOB-ps8km]

Damn. It's really cool.

[@akitoyuuki4305]

She looks more like fu hua form

Sun Nation. This nation will have Water, Earth, Air and Fire as it is important for Aztec Tonaituh or Huitzilopochtli could be The pryo archon other name of Mavuika . If not Captiano will become Pryo archon as Name Tonaituh their vision are shape like sun stone from Aztec mythology We are getting a lot of sacrifice in the Arc.

@@EroBE14 yeah I noticed when they announced they VA's. Sounded just like her though

[@TheMakushimirian]

i do find it a bit sad how many seem to be even more copium than me and just go "red head, has to be Himeko". She really doesnt share much of any things in common apart from beeing a woman wielding fire. She sadly is quite a poor himeko expy compared to what we should and could have gotten.

[@UnrealDreamer]

In fairness this is a red haired character which already proves is the Murata line of Genshin. She Wields fire, likes to dress flamboyantly like Himeko off duty (read manga) and seems to be doing lots behind the scenes

[@TheMakushimirian]

@@UnrealDreamer "this is a red haired character which already proves" then Nilou and Diluc are also Muratas, and Diluc is even more accurate since, compared to this character, he atleast has the same hair color. 1: Murata is purely used in english manga to describe her, CN never uses Murata at all, and JP only to describe a group of people. Hell as of right now this one isnt even named Murata but Mavuika, which doesnt fit the "known" Murata nor any of the names used for archons from the "False Monarchy of Demons" 2: she may be red headed but the color is still compleatly off. Even the english and jp VA's are off and only CN match. So by quite literally every metric this is not a Himeko expy, or at best its a really bad one.

[@UnrealDreamer]

… that’s exactly what that means Venti an archon has already said the children of Murata are a “hardy people blessed with a head with fiery red hair”

I really hope most content creators will stop with the whole c6r5 bullshit, it's useless and this money should be used for other things. They all ignored the complaints with Sumeru with it's colorism, same goes during Penacony and the cultural appropriation, now even the voice actors are calling Hoyoverse out for Natlan, there's just... no excuse anymore.
