It Keeps Getting BETTER! Kai no Kiseki Trailer 2 Electric Boogaloo Reaction

How do they keep getting away with this!? Every trailer and piece of promo material I see just continues to raise my hype levels into the stratosphere! I think I need to lay down after this one before jumping into the Dengeki livestream next... haha...

3:20 Rean definitely charging in for a rematch or something because the banner in the back also has the Ikaruga emblem. Going right into their territory. Actually the same banners are visible behind Yun Ka Fai. May be related to the same section.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

I noticed that in editing, the banner was in the back when Rean and Fie were fighting those monsters. Very curious to see what that section is about, and if we'll also get the Shizuna fight early?? That would be nuts.

[@madkaiser4887]

Ahhhhh General Cyrus Bright, you are a bold one! Once again congrats on the milestone and yeah, again things are just looking better and better with this new trailer

[@Cyrus_Bright]

Appreciate your support Mr. Kaiser! This feels like a new era for Falcom and I'm all for it!

[@Official_RetroMania]

That new trailer looked amazing! 🤩 Kai no Kiseki is already a 2 million / 10 game! 🔥👏🏻🙌🏻

[@Cyrus_Bright]

2 million seems too low somehow XD

[@Official_RetroMania]

@@Cyrus_Bright True, true!

[@50MiraGaming]

it looks like shes wearing same type of cloths cel;este wore in the 3rd

[@EmperorSephirothII]

The Brother and Sister Enforcer pair are Enforcer XX which correlates to the Judgement Card in the tarot deck.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

ooh interesting 👀

[@SoraDestiny471]

You can barely see Crow behind the Ape in Rean's battle field mode

[@Cyrus_Bright]

All these years later he's still trying to hide his identity, I guess old habits aren't so easy to break xD

[@Galax94cz]

'Nina is still super sus' pretty much describes her perfectly, the first time I saw her in Kuro I was already like - You are NOT a normal person aren't you? *And then all the actually sus stuff happens* Also yes, I can only hope someone will do fan translation like they did for Kuro cause I CANNOT wait till like 2026 at minimum to play Kai

[@Justawhisper12]

I won't spoil it, but Nina's "job" is showed at the end of Kuro 2! But all I can say is that you're close on the mark with the "priestess" part

[@naxxaura9032]

Man it's going to be rough few months - year waiting for the vigilante english team. Rean being back was already enough for me but he looks SO DAMN COOL NOW!

[@Callum5211]

"This world called Zemuria will soon come to an end only to begin anew" I'm pretty sure that's Hamilton. Really makes me wonder what her role is going to be in this, ever since the postgame of Kuro II I've been sus of her👀

[@Cyrus_Bright]

Who isn't sus in this series? xD that's an interesting observation tho... 🤔

[@sunrisesparkle6363]

Hamilton working with the Society would certainly be wild.

[@soulsq2]

Congratulations 1K. Oh Rean i love still him

[@Cyrus_Bright]

Thanks! Rean got 10 times cooler and all it took was Falcom giving him *more* budget xD

[@grey7268]

The new voice actor for Kevin is Kazuyuki Okitsu, it feels similar to Ryouhei Nakao, but have to see more of him doing kevin voice.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

It sounded fairly similar to me, but it'd been so long since I heard him. He sounds fine from the small sample we got.

[@erihitsuki]

Congrats on the 1K, Cyrus!!! 🎉🎉🎉

[@Cyrus_Bright]

Thank you Eri!

[@JohnRambo1947-July-6th]

Yeah, I love your channel. Keep up the good work! ❤ That is totally Dragon of the Darkness Flame!!! Lol. 😊

[@Cyrus_Bright]

Thanks 😅 I will! I saw the black dragon and just had to add that scene, YYH was one of my fav anime growing up 😎

[@Kruxx26]

These trailers have been absolutely insane. I feel they are showing a lot of stuff, but in reality, they are not even scratching the surface. This game is going to be crazy.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

oh man, this game really is going to be a wild time isn't it? With the reveal of Daybreak 2 coming early 2025 it's entirely possible we could get Kai late 2025 or early 2026 🤯

[@Kruxx26]

@@Cyrus_Bright I can totally see a fall 2025 release for Kai. My dream would be a summer 2025 release, but that's too good to be true 🤣

[@haisekaneki4962]

Praying for the other MCs to return on the next WebCM even though I doubt it

[@Cyrus_Bright]

I want to see Bestelle again 😤

[@kevinstreetgaming]

The trailer looks so good! The music, the voice acting, the characters they decided to reveal. Incredible! I don't think that Yun Ka-fai is a bad guy, but I do think he will be a boss fight for Rean to prove that he is worthy of being a Divine Blade. Dude, another masked C character vs. Risette and Cao. I love it! I hope Cao becomes a playable character. The guy at the end with the hat looks so badass. Definitely a member of Ouroboros. Oh, and how could I forget the hot vtuber Ouroboros member. Falcom knows what we want! Great video man. I wish they would stop posting these things, but I remain hopeful that we will get them sooner or later. Daybreak 2 and Kai no Kiseki are absolutely going to be localized, but I think we will be getting them sooner rather than later. The fact that Kondo is going to be at that convention this weekend and the Daybreak 2 title leak from last week tells me that Daybreak 2 will probably be released in the next six months or so with Kai soon to follow. That or I'm just huffing copium. xD

[@Cyrus_Bright]

It's so good man, I still feel disbelief that this is Trails. The massive jump in quality keeps throwing me off xD Everyone is a bad guy until proven innocent at this point! 😤I can't wait to fight him, if that opening few moments is any indicator... we may have a visual feast on our hands. I didn't even mention the masked guy, I didn't process his existence until afterwards XD but seeing Cao fight him was cool... I wonder if this time it'll be Cedric? 🤔 "Hot VTuber" Falcom indeed knows what we want, no complaints here xD very interested to see what number they are and what their characters are like. Thanks Kev, I kinda wish the same xD but these promo vids are like crack. Inject all of it into my veins pls, screw the consequences! Lol. Daybreak 2 is all but confirmed to be the secret reveal at AX. I'll be genuinely shocked if it's anything else. I guess it *could* be something Tokyo Xanadu related, but nothing's even been revealed on the JP front so it's unlikely. Sign me up for some premium copium though! Each day we get closer and closer to only being 1 game behind in terms of JP releases and that can only be a good thing. I'd like to say maybe we'd get simultaneous WW releases but I have to maintain *some* level of realism to my thoughts XD

[@kevinstreetgaming]

@@Cyrus_Bright I love that Falcom is keeping the masked C character trend going. You can hear him talk with the voice modulator in the trailer during that scene as well. Yeah, it could very well be Cedric. "Hot VTuber" Hey, you should know me by now! I just think Kondo being there is a really big deal. Daybreak was officially announced last year at this time along with all of the major voice actors, so I wouldn't be surprised if they have already been working on Daybreak 2 with a closer than we expect release date.

[@Sjin2003kkkk]

nina is saint of the end, not the one who destroy the world but the one who appear when the world near to the end of loop and prevent it, from some video i watch yesterday, not official but i guess it not too far from the true

[@DahauRenFernus]

Yo, congratulations for the 1k subs

[@Cyrus_Bright]

thank you very much! ^^

[@artcorbeau]

that guy at 8:00 is most probably kurogane same armor and scarf

[@MinhLe19303]

That impact frame... Holy shit.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

it's crazy to see just how far Falcom have come with their animations

[@GiliathOsdaddy-EbonChancelloro]

There's new gameplay footage too, if you haven't checked it out. I keep thinking about how the former Jade Rook looks so much like Agent Kiryu.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

I'll hopefully have the breakdown of the new Dengeki livestream out sometime this week! The new gameplay stuff was... 😩👌

[@danjarnutowski2331]

The hei meme deserved 10k likes on it's own. Please let him be playable. I don't care context I just wanna use the dragon 😭😭😭

[@Cyrus_Bright]

that would be sick, maybe he could be a guest character that joins at the end of the game? or maybe after we beat him?

[@danjarnutowski2331]

​@@Cyrus_BrightDRAGON OF THE DARKNESS FLAMES!!!

[@Natreg44]

Hype is real :D Sadly Kevin's voice has been changed. So even if we get him back, we don't truly get him back. That was a little dissapointing for me. I loved Crow's cosplay as Squall in that scene ^^ Kuro 2 cutscenes were incredible, and yet, Kai seems to have improved upon that. I'm not sure about that guy being Nielsen but it's true that his looks remind me of someone, but I can't really place him. You are clearly looking too much to that Nina scene. She's clearly just on a movie.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

Aw man, it was? That's unfortunate, his voice still sounded cool (if that one clip *was* him) I didn't think they could improve too much from Kuro 2, but this really feels like the next major step up in terms of graphics and animations. If it's not Nielsen... I mean, he kinda gives me Black Alberich vibes too, but that's not possible. I'm trying to think of characters who have a similar hair style and I'm drawing a blank right now xD NINA IS SUS AND U CAN'T STOP ME!!! D: lol, but you're probably right... I just don't trust her, even if every time they do something weird with her is just a massive red herring since they *KNOW* we'll look too into things (based off past events and reveals)

[@Nikita_Akashya]

Regarding that Nina girl, I had no idea who she was and legit thought that was a revived Karin Astray. But that weird Japanese video I watched had google translate call her "The Saint of the End". I can not wait to get there someday. Also, if you haven't seen it, I picked up my package of Daybreak today. It is great. I love the artbook. But for now, it stays in the closet. Until I played Reverie one day.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

That would've been such a Falcom move though, lol. Curse you EU! Getting Daybreak early! I still haven't received my shipping confirmation details yet xD thankfully I've already played it but this must suck for a majority of people who want to play it day one.

[@riofernando9414]

1:33 is basically everyone's reaction lmao 😂😂

[@riofernando9414]

Add-on: Dude cyrus continue kuro 2 pls for 10:40 😂

[@Cyrus_Bright]

I'm trying my best, lmao

[@sj4iy]

I don’t think that’s crow’s mech because she’s saying “gomen, gomen, Papa”.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

True, whoever is in the mech could be talking to someone else through the radio though from what people were bringing up back then. I still secretly want it to be Shirley and Sigmund because chaos xD

[@danjarnutowski2331]

Just wait for the live stream just the intro and first 20 minutes and what it's focused on lol

[@Cyrus_Bright]

that's going to be a fun time for you guys, haha...

[@danjarnutowski2331]

​@@Cyrus_Brightcan't wait for the video. I expect lots of memes good sir!

[@drakenstoc4885]

If that is Nielsen at the end of the trailer, then there is a brief moment where his eyes are open at 2:04 in this video. It's very easy to miss because it is one frame. I don't think we've ever seen Nielsen with his eyes open before (correct me if I'm wrong), but that would imply that he isn't blind... right?

[@Cyrus_Bright]

It wouldn't be too surprising if he was just pretending the whole time, or had some kind of special contacts that gave off the appearance of him being blind on the off chance he did open his eyes (even though we never saw him do that personally) very curious to see who that ends up being

[@RhenyxGaming]

The JP va sounds like Nielsen, but that hair color is throwing me off to Bermotti. Can't wait for the reveal

[@michaelclifton9498]

Don't know if you care about ys but ys memoire the oath in felghana is coming to the west in2025

[@Cyrus_Bright]

I saw! Pretty cool announcement. Happy for the Ys fans out there (I still have most of them to play myself xD)

[@DJNekura]

Hopefully not a spoiler... but don't worry about Nina, you learn that in K2

[@Cyrus_Bright]

Nina continues to taunt me everywhere I go xD

[@danjarnutowski2331]

​@@Cyrus_Brightshe's like your version of Rean for me

[@DJNekura]

Personally I was just glad I wasn't blue balled any more about her. Certainly was one of the more intriguing characters in K1

[@kitkro4679]

Man are they trying to surpass cs4 or revire feels like it man theres so much new orobros members replacements rean vs future wife be funny if rean gets another added to harem so much going on they really said kai will be 20th anniversary and game of year lol looks so insane graphics crazy i wonder could we see adios here or someone is adios

Just subscribed and i probably shouldn't watch this with kuro1/daybreak coming west in 4 days and kuro2 coming at some point😅

[@Cyrus_Bright]

I still haven't finished Kuro 2 so I'm in a similar boat, lol, but hey as long as it isn't super story heavy spoilers it's fine to take a peek, right? 👀

[@nopeyepp]

watching all the ads even the raid shadow legends

[@Cyrus_Bright]

OwO *notices you* Okay but real talk, how are the ads in terms of viewing experience? Are there too many? Trying to figure things out and make necessary adjustments early so I can achieve the golden ratio 😎😂

@@nopeyepp thanks, that's very helpful 👍👍🥳

[@GiliathOsdaddy-EbonChancelloro]

Nina is dressed in papal clothes. Check how the pope and how other high Catholic figures are dressed. They all have that Iron Cross.

[@GiliathOsdaddy-EbonChancelloro]

My theory is: Possible spoilers for Kuro 2: The ship shown before is not a Merkabah but a Papal Guard airship. The Dominions would use the Merkabah and the Papal Guard might have another airship model, under a different name like "ophanim/galgalim" (Biblical references). The Airship looks more modern than the Merkabah and Nina is shown afterwards, therefore Nina is probably the Ein of the Papa Guard. ( Falcom probably came up with it since they thought that Merkabah would look a bit small in a modern game like Kai , especially looking at the newer models of airships like Calvard's Alba-Class and Erebonia's Garguanta-class. Similarly to how they got rid of Courageous I/Arseille I, to make a more up to standard Courageous II/Arseille II. ) Or....Kevin got a new model Merkabah, probably along with the other dominions. Just speculating, since I've noticed that Both the Sky/Crossbell Arc and Cold Steel Arc Markabah are different from the one shown in the trailer.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

Me: "I'm 5 parallel worlds ahead of you Kondo!" Kondo: "They're just normal church clothes bro..." Me: 😮 I don't know why I jump to the most out there stuff first instead of trying to observe the obvious stuff first, that's what hype does to a man I guess xD

[@user-pi7jq1nf4u]

I don't really understant why they went after conventional rockets, while their airships are literally utilizing anti-gravity technology for decade and a half already, u could just... repurpose it, you know?

[@Cyrus_Bright]

maybe they performed tests and the only way to reach space was to build a rocket ship due to some special properties? Hopefully it'll get explained somewhat in Kai.

[@user-pi7jq1nf4u]

@@Cyrus_Bright I very hope so, but after terrible worldbuilding in reverie I'm kind of sceptical

Seems like it, or an Enforcer at least

[@veghesther3204]

while the Marchen Garden dungeons WILL still exist in Kai/Kuro 3 I HATED the FISHING MINI game in Kuro 2 that I'm hoping it does NOT exist in Kai at all especially since in order to buy the fishing items in Kuro 2 that are NOT the default Bait for MORE then 3 to 5 copies ie 99+ at once you had to beat the ENTIRE game first and I'm sure not EVERY FISH you could get in the main game COULD show up in Kuro 2's post game. That's why I'd rather not have the fishing mini game exist in Kai/Kuro 3 at all.

[@Cyrus_Bright]

I actually like the fishing minigame so far 😅 I missed fishing in Kuro 1 😔

[@veghesther3204]

I don't and even the reward for all 28 Fish even if its not all Rank A ones is pure crap and I still hated the way it works so I'd rather not have it exist in Kai/Kuro 3 at all
