What we learned: Lumine doesn't skip leg day Aether doesn't skip arm day

[@shanedoesyoutube8001]

Basically Lumine is Chun Li main, Aether is Muhammad Ali main Edit: or actually, Lumine is Heizou main, Aether is rizzley main

[@toastee5421]

conclusion: they both suffer from the twink curse.

[@aetherherrscherofnasigoren1417]

Lumine is Sidewipe, Aether is Ironhide

[@SaraAson]

Which is funny because Aether is the slightly faster twin and Lumine the slightly stronger one so really it should be reversed

[@benjamindelacruz4791]

Aether prefers to take in his surrounding, getting distracted or just really enjoys the scenery while Lumine is focus on the goal/objective

[@Lukin69232]

At the cutscene where the twins meet Jean, Aether looks around the office observing his surroundings, while his sister looks directly at the people: she first looks at Lisa and then at Jean

[@Succubus_Loli]

Well he had to protect his sister after all, so of course he's gonna be wary of everything around her

[@AraragiSenpaiSay]

Aether is analyzing the area, Lumine the people. Probably Aether thinks that is better to have a knowledge of the ground if anything happens, and Lumine to see people´s behavior.

[@fantafailgeek1485]

They were always traveling and fighting together , lumine like the energic little sister she is goes straight to fight , while aether like the protective big brother he is look around to see if there is any other threat. You can see in both cutscenes and attack patterns that aether is more calm and defensive , why he runs faster to defend others , while lumine is more enetgic and emotive , why she is more offensive and attacks faster than aether

Yeah and I think Aether uses one hand to fight with his sword and use his geo skill while lumine uses one hand to fight with her sword and the other hand to use her geo skill. In their geo bursts, Aether punches the ground while lumine stomps the ground. There's even a difference with their anemo bursts.

@@lorewalkermaohao4602 if it's the game settings, then how come it's the only noticeable difference in color throughout the whole video

[@lorewalkermaohao4602]

@@liaselleaeri ​ at 0:17 you can see the rocks in the background being slightly different shade and lumine's side is slightly more blurry while aether's side is more crips. This is the same throughout the video. at 1:34 you can see similar things with the pavement in the background, and the colors being slightly off on Amber (her hair and skin). In the first timestamp it could be due to ingame time, because those cutscenes are rendered in the overworld directly. That's why the clouds are different for example. But in the second timestamp that is a pre-rendered cutscene, so every model should be identical. The reason they are not is because of device settings, or possibly even just recording software being different. Clear signs of two different machines being used. I also just noticed that Amber is wearing a different outfit between the takes, so only her skin and hair should be taken into account, not her clothing. but hey, i'm not saying that Aether and Lumine's anemo actually is same colors, just saying that in this video it's not clear because of different devices being used to capture footage.

[@Angiexcoffe]

Yk I love how the staff gave them different animations and little details because it shows they really put effort in both twins

[@Succubus_Loli]

It's because they animated it twice, of course it's not gonna be completely the same even if by accident

[@captaindanger13]

@@Succubus_Loli they were referring to the specific super obvious differences like lumine using 2 hands to get up while aether used only 1 during the scaramouche fight cutscene. also, for some of the parts where the animation is exactly the same, like in the combat scenes, they just model swap the travelers for a lot of it, which we know for a fact cuz there used to be a bug where sometimes a cutscene would show aether instead of lumine for a split second for lumine players back in the 2.x series of updates. idk if that bug still happens since I haven't heard anyone talk about the bug since, and I have aether.

[@shadeofthenight8988]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@Succubus_Loli so I’m going to be the um actually guy here but they don’t animate it twice at least not from scratch for the moments when the twins have the same/ almost same animation. For animation in 3d models what makes it be able to move is a skeleton and the model is just rigged to it with the ability to change what model it’s attached to. That’s how mods that change characters into another and why things like clipping happens because it’s animation meant for a drastically different model.

[@sidescythesickle9442]

[@Dann69420]

I always find that Aether being more defensive. His stance pose, his blade placement.. and wherever he goes, he always look around, keeping awareness to the surrounding. While Lumine was total opposite. She's more offensive. Her stance and blade placement always indicating that she's preparing to strike. But she's weaker in defense, as we always see she holds her chest/ stomach longer than Aether indicating that she took longer time to recover. I guess when they're together, Lumine was the one to strike while Aether cover her blindspots, as their attack pattern always cover each other's vulnerable spot. Also Lumine has more charged attack scaling while Aether has more base hp and def. Imagine how vulnerable you're being separated like that. Not mentioning being nerfed to the ground.

I really like how their movements are different in certain scenes. It further emphasises that, although they are the male and female player characters, they are also both their own individual characters! That is one thing I really love about Genshin Impact! The player characters arent just gender flips of each other! Both of them are actual canon characters with their own names and personalities, regardless of which one you pick!

[@Zinph_]

I don’t know why but in the we will be reunited cutscene I noticed that the abyss twin’s facial expressions are like- idk different??? It may just be their models face structure but while Aether looked bittersweet and kind of hesitant, Lumine looked distant like she’s reliving a memory. It may not say much but to me it explains their personal personalities so well. Even though we can only speculate it seems as if Lumine is much more headstrong, determined as she looks back at the past without frowning or smiling, since it’s the past to her. While Aether feels more emotionally inclined, he looks at the past compared to the future and feels bittersweet. Anyway thanks for listening to this spiel, I play as Aether so it’s cool seeing Lumine’s side of things. But honestly I’m glad I personally chose Aether cause Lumine is much more mysterious to me- lol. Have a good night/day and to the creator, good job on the great video!!

One point I noticed immediately (it was why I picked her) was that Lumine had her sword in the left hand when they were together at the beginning. Despite switching her sword to the right hand since, the various combat animations make it clear she's far closer to ambidextrous, preferring her left hand for "spellcasting" where Aether prefers to momentarily free up his right. While the developers not creating separate Hydro Bursts (there are potential problems with making the "water ball" spin in different directions)) leaves me doubtful, it's still possible that Aether's professed favoritism for Pyro and Lumine's for Cryo (it's in their voice line banks) may differentiate their later kits.

[@taru5156]

so what the actual reason u picked her? bcs she is left handed? bcs she is a grill?

[@DanaOtken]

@@taru5156 I'm left-handed. I don't demand left-handed characters, and I don't always play one if one's available, I do not believe it's realistic in anything too based on our world for there to be a lot of them around (there are good reasons it'll be a steady 5-15% of any human population; even in a fantasy or sci-fi setting altering this it's far more likely that minority will just get flipped than that it'll go closer to even), I can accept that even in a lot of games with character customization there can be technical problems with allowing that particular option. (Not usually in MMOs, the Matrix Online being an notable exception.) I'm not an activist, and don't think this is worth activism. (Being left-handed does in fact provably screw you over to the extent of statistically reducing your life span, but any fixes would prove worse than the problem.) That said, at the start of playing the game - and I went in pretty much blind since I knew since the game's release I'd want to play it at some point and see how exactly gacha mechanics and game balancing combined with open-world gameplay - it was as good a reason as any to choose. While it turns out the few differences in personality are ones where I'd appreciate Lumine's viewpoint more, I didn't know that at the time. Hoping that the main story will ultimately be followed by a NG+ mode in which both twins will be available and we can replay huge chunks of the main game and events.

[@horizon_angel]

Some things I notice at start of game, both Traveler is quite different by attitude and, traits maybe? Aether seems to looking around more, shows that he's more observant on surrounding than Lumine, clearly he's the older sibling, as JP and KOR dub said Lumine that seems hesitant to touch the statue also shows that she's, well, not used to be on her own, maybe, like she used to have Aether to make sure everything is safe, so now that she's on her own, she's having more time to adapt with her surrounding Aether seems to have stronger arms, while Lumine have stronger legs. I think we all know about it now Sitting position, napping position, and running position is just showing that they're male and female, I like that HYV keep it around in each scene, a little things to differentiate them Now overtime, their difference is seems to dissipate one by one (except the fact they're male and female), but Xianyun's story quest kinda point us out again that Lumine is the younger sister. Because the fact that she's immediately break down and run into her brother (in dream ofc), kinda shows that she's missing him too much, whereas Aether is still trying to keep his cool (he break down eventually) I'm a Lumine player myself, I really love her that I actually build my Lumine as strong as I can, and keep her around team (at least now in story or just for immersion, but she's basically ready and not benched). Seeing this video, I kinda like how the character development goes for her. From the usual backseater that used to have his brother to look everything for her, to completely her own, staying strong and also observant to everything while keep caring to everyone like a princess she should be

[@someonewhocantmakeuptheirm2671]

i interpret it as lumine being headstrong and focused, keeping her mind on the objective and ignoring all distractions, while aether is more defensive and cautious and observes his surroundings. it kinda shows in their battle stances, aether is slightly hunched and holding his sword straight down while lumine stands tall and holds it an an angle like she's prepared to attack. in a different cutscene aether is also shown holding his sword in a "block" pose while lumine is swinging it like she's attacking i think that's why they work best together, aether is observant and watches for his surroundings while lumine is focused and keeps them on the right path

There're also other subtle differences, right now I can remember for example their voicelines, where Lumine says she likes Cryo slimes (something about them being useful in summer) and Aether prefers Pyro slimes (you'd need them in winter). Or the way they hold on Kaeya's hand in his hangout. Also I think there's a difference how they react during Childe's transformation in Fontaine's court ^^

it’ basically showing general differences between two genders, some aren’t necessarily “styles”, from the postures to range of movement, it actually depicts mechanical restrictions and implies differences in bone structure, weight distribution, even the factor of “balls” in the way they sit there’s also the behaviors which goes into biopsych territory, Aether moves with heavier arms and interacts with the world more(basically his upper body moves more “free-er”), while Lumine moves more delicately and somewhat “defensive”, she’s often with lifted-hands in tense or anxious situations(instinctual stance to protect the chest which for girls is more vulnerable) pretty good job with these little details

[@vanilla6326]

Basically what I can tell is much like the slight difference in their fighting stats, Aether is the shield and Lumine is the sword. They also have opposing dominant hands when they fight. They both look around a lot just Lumine does it with her eyes rather than her whole body which also tracks, physical movement would give away where she’s looking in fights and make it easier to predict her movements, Aether being a shield he basically needs to be shielding everywhere he looks. Aether gives off the impression that he just refuses to be overtly distrustful, he trusts in himself that he can manage whatever happens regardless of the outcome. Lumine on the other hand seems to overtly distrust when given a reason but will play along with whatever the situation may be. (In a Fontaine world quest it’s confirmed that lumine behaves this way idk about Aether I don’t play as him) She just seems generally less surprised by betrayals than Aether.

1:59 Abyss Aether lifts his chin up to look down on the abyss mage. It looks like he’s intentionally trying to show his power, like making people believe he’s above them. Abyss Lumine doesn’t need to *pretend* to display her power, even with an even gaze it’s clear that she’s more powerful. Also, in general, it seems Lumine is more focused on her goal where Aether is more like “hmm…but what’s *this?”*

[@Artryom]

None of the top portion makes sense. Why would he need to pretend when nothing is confirmed that she’s the more powerful sibling and even then, why would he need to pretend in front of an abyss mage? Honestly, he even lifts a heavy piece of rock off him with one hand whereas she struggles with two… it’s simply for aesthetics and differentiating attitude between the two to make them feel separate.

Every time someone ask about her in oficial content Aether fans call her weird nicknames and give her hate What makes her hated even more (besides her ships). But it's good that she gets some love from her fans even if it's not from her creator.

[@amarena_]

I think most of lumine’s leg differences can be attributed to wearing a skirt and not wanting to flash anyone

[@ssummerdew]

it's a very typical female animation style (at least in anime) that girls put their knees together more and hence also run so damn awkwardly like they all have knock knees, and elbows close to body while arms are flared out >_> like how many actual females run like that?!

[@ailumi9324]

My girl, Lumine is everything to me. She's my best traveler I ever main

[@HoffmanXXL]

Lumine is so cute. I am happy that i picked her ^^

[@yuuzelthyc9683]

Kudos to you man, I love seeing their differences and similarities. Lumine seems to be more of the offensive when the twins were together, but she's now seen always keeping a hand close to her chest on guard. Meanwhile Aether's weapon stance is usually defensive but the hand not holding the sword is never defensive 5:30 Aether became spiderman for a sec

[@sidescythesickle9442]

aether: my spider sense is tickling

[@plant_pot119]

It's even more interesting that, while it's not explicitly pointed out in the video, you can clearly see the arms/legs difference, wherein Lumine, even when she's standing up from a crouch, be it slowly or into a sprint, she does so without using her arms for support, meanwhile Aether does, like at 6:04 (Aether pushes his arm on his knee for the burst of speed, Lumine just dashes with her legs) or 9:13 (Aether stands up by pushing the ground, Lumine just uses her legs)

[@Sivvanna__xX]

I keep wandering when will Aether go to the hospital cause of breaking his hands 😭💀

[@Eclipse-be3co]

Lumine’s run in the cutscene with child looks like Captain Jack Sparrow’s run 😂

[@Lukin69232]

Cute

[@DjDragonblade]

All videos like this really prove to me is that they didn't just copy/paste everything, as some people have said that they did... I like playing the game anyway, but it's nice to see that there are some differences (even if they still lead to the same outcome anyway...)...😁

[@A_WildPotato]

Women and men move differently in different circumstances. The art is wonderful and the drawers took his into consideration when they were creating the characters! Chops to HoYo!

[@LauraAAa2516]

As an Aether user, I still prefer him. I love Lumine sooo so much, but Aether fits to the traveler hero and his little girlie pop companion so much better. The way he's brave but careful, and do anything without hesitation fits better on a traveler. Also, Lumine is SUCH A GOOD EVIL PRINCESS LIKE DAMNN the way her eyes are so careless fits her better. AND her sword is more badass as a "villain". I always liked how Aether was a friend with everyone when they just met. He's so friendly and still serious. The way he's looking around and was always amused by the nature. I JUST LOVE HIM

[@niqchus]

I remember starting genshin the 1st day it came out the opening scene was amazing to me and choosing aether but I never really played Lumine so I didn't really ever have to chance to notice the differences I never really switched servers

I like how both have there own fighting style and animations

[@haruhihirano2633]

I want these 2 to reunite again in the near future so bad

[@atharav833]

more likely 1 twin is just illusion created by tevyet in reality no twin exist

[@arachishoyo0110]

The way Lumine looks straight and Aether looks around makes me imagine them together entering the room like Lumine enters first, ready to enter the battle. Aether looks around to see if there's any danger. Referencing to their strength with Lumine having the high attack dmg and Aether covering her blind spots.

[@FoxyFan0312]

For me Aether gives more MC vibe than Lumine and his reaction is more lively than Lumine. And Lumine is more suitable as an Abyss princess than a protagonist.

Lumine’s legs are always slightly closed together because she’s wearing a skirt and she doesn’t want to flash everyone

[@xucokv]

Aether knows everything... he is the future...

[@genshin8400]

There is certainly a difference between them because they are male and female. To be clear, Aether wouldn't have sat like Lumine in the first quest because it is a feminine movement and Lumine cannot do the same thing I hope you understood this simplified explanation💀💀💀 they are so cuties...

[@venus4724]

Yeah. I wouldn't categorise any way of sittimg as feminine or masculine because i don't believe in those, but CLEARLY Lumime is sitting with her legs closer together because she's wearing a dress.

[@wingedflyingforce5139]

And aether legs apart because private parts of I assume male ​@@venus4724

[@LucyMaymake]

yeah it's just simply masculine and feminine things. in the end it depends on each of our preferences.

[@Artryom]

If they didn’t have those, there wouldn’t be any point in choosing which aside from looks but even then they look very similar. Glad they didn’t decide to make it stale. Need more differences between the two in video games where you choose the gender and such.

[@hotarubestwaifu3510]

For Aether the abyss power looks more obscure 🤔

[@johnl163]

Aether has so much more movement and expressions, and he is also funny and quick-witted, and many of the dialogues match him, while Lumine just seems kind of cold and distant.

[@Lukin69232]

Depends on which role you put both of them

[@silverfay2902]

1:46 well thats it, we are done

The small details showing Aether always pushing against his knee to get up while Lumine can just use her legs to get up are really cool!

[@user-oe8sb8er2p]

dialogue at the start is different too Aether looks so dashing when he's a villain

[@AlexKurzweil]

I do appreciate how they made the twins different, like they're siblings and not just copies of each other

[@GhostlyGhost333]

Kind of glad I chose Aether. He seems more reactionary to the things going on around him compared to Lumine. But, I’m glad to see the differences between the two characters. It shows their gameplay is slightly different, if only in appearance.

[@EnderHeart5911]

They also have quite a few differences in the hangout endings.

[@timeforgottenprince8271]

My father told me you should never underestimate the strength of a girl's kick, as a girl during his martial arts class, who was a foot shorter than my dad, broke his hand in one kick.

[@poopydoopyscoopy178]

I love how they’re actually they’re own character, not just the same character genderbent and with a different outfit. Also, it solidifies that I did, in fact, choose the right twin for myself, Aether is definitely way more me💀🙏

The difference in the twins action. Is what theory Crafts love to use as basis for the time loop theory on tevat.

*lumine just causally checking her heartbeat by putting her hand on it while aether doesnt care*

[@dogishappy0]

This is great! Im so happy the animation team didn't go with a simple model swap and instead added enough detail to the animations to make each twin feel distinct.

[@DragonFaerie]

Its adorable that they have these differences in my opinion, 1. It shows how much care was put into making them different, and 2. It makes them feel even more like siblings who are on good terms.

[@aliamuldawer4768]

I think in certain positions, like 0:23 and 1:26, Aether has his legs in a position where it's a bit too revealing for Lumine to be in since he has pants, and she has a dress

I haven't made the Xianyun quest, but I loved the scene, hits so hard 😭😭😭

One had the original outfit, while the other had the altered outfit. China had issue with some character outfits and were forced to chance them going forward.
