Marcomeatball Reacts to Honkai Impact 3rd Forest Capriccio Concert

Let's listen together :) excited to watch/listen/and talk!

I hereby vote we have Marco react to Senti's singing from the recent web event.

Glad he heard the Concert version of Kevin's theme at least. I hope he listens to the original someday, or recovers his account for HI3 and gets to the point Kevin is introduced.

[@StatiicOW]

hanser is actually a VTuber under VirtuaReal (the Chinese branch of the VTuber agency NIJISANJI and is a join venture between their parent company and bilibili) which is why she hides her face whenever she appears in person. This stretches from her performances in these concerts (hence why she's always covered her face in some way while completely blocking sight of her eyes) to her streams, where she wears goggles to hide part of her face if she appears on camera. Obviously it's also personal choice for privacy reasons and such but that's just one of the reasons as to why. Which is convenient since the masks and face covers she wears match with Bronya's entire character perfectly

[@SunnySzetoSz2000]

she isn't start from vtuber, she is famous as a net voice actor (釘宮的聲擬

[@dumbfox0.819]

bruh,hanser already "exist" before the vtuber bruh....so much misinformation

[@StatiicOW]

@dumbfox0.819 lmfao you think I don't know that hanser was originally an Utaite? hanser is also a VTuber now, something that's incredibly popular which means it's more mainstream amongst people typically outside of the sphere. Utaites are still somewhat of a "niche" genre of artist and people outside of the utaite sphere might be like "why don't they just show their face like other artists?" Saying she's a VTuber not only gives current information but also makes the whole "identity hiding thing" slightly more easier to comprehend since its a core characteristics of vtubers, something that has been in the mainstream for years now and easy to come across through viral stuff about them. The definition of misinformation is "false or incorrect information, especially that of which is deliberately intended to decieve." Nothing here is false or incorrect, nor is it deceiving anyone. If you want to write a non-condensed version going through her entire career like a Wikipedia article, be my guest.

[@jpgarcia7892]

It wouldn't be a Marco Meatball music reaction session without sone lessons in music fundamentals and theory without the boredom of a typical music professor. As for Honkai Impact concerts go, this has got to be my favorite thus far. And as always, countless tears were shed while watching the whole thing for the first time.

[@Zolwiol]

Learning about things is not boring it's often problem of how it's presented. Not hating on public educators needing to try and teach too many kids at the same time.

the way they opened the concert with Cyber Angel Zero Exception to ending with Da Capo was amazing, i didn't expect to cry by the last 3 songs hit me right in the feels, and i did get introduced to a new song Oaths and my God Axis Neptune Phenomenal singer, its a shame they couldn't get befall, starfall, MoonHalo or Charlie Zhou Shen but i totally get it, Charlie is a very busy man, and cant reuse old songs to the point people get sick of it. Its a shame hanser got tired of her song but, it is what it is. i loved the concert

[@SaraGon15]

befall 1x in 3 concerts.... Cyberangel 3x in 3 yep the reuse thing... even the singer is tired of it lol.

[@AlexisStreams]

@@SaraGon15 cant say i blame her, singing the same song over and over again can hurt the vocals, reaching that high note. i heard it was because of her fans too

[@SaraGon15]

@@AlexisStreams yeah the thing is, is not because of the concerts is more because of her fans calling her Bronya in her streams and asking all the time to sing this song.. so yep she is tired already of it.

Yeah last time they tribute otto with hella good regression performance, this time kevin theme got the attention he deserves, also Lyin song

The Kevin section is the second best, the best obviously goes to Da Capo.

[@radleyreyes4131]

I cried when I heard Da capo play because we lost our dad at the start of last month and I just started to remember the good memories I had with my dad as I listen to Da capo's lyrics my heart and feelings are still confused but I am doing better and I am really happy I found honkai impact.

Man that Live Chat is so annoying, I personally don't get all the fuss with spoilers, and I don't think it would make any difference if Marco saw the visuals, BUT I respect his reluctance and choice to avoid spoilers. There is literally NO NEED to keep lecturing him about the philosophy of spoilers, just SHUT UP and let the man listen to the music. Also Tuna is not a spoiler, it's a running gag to call Kiana a Tuna. For what reason I have already forgotten, but it's a Chinese meme thing.

[@adrianmartinez1587]

Kiana as a word simply sounds similar to tuna in chinese

[@SaraGon15]

indeed chat is annoying with the "Spoilers" "muting video... turning off screen" "Here it is" "is time" and to many things like that it really get annoying after all.

[@adrianmartinez1587]

@SaraGon15 "oh i cant wait for his reaction to the ending of chapter this and chapter that" is one of the many things i hate because it preempts the chapter "Oooh he's gonna need tissues for chapter this and that" and all the other phrases

Your analysis of The Flawless Human and Elysian Realm was so spot on! I was in awe of how accurate you were to the purpose of the music in the story! It really showcases how skilled of a musician you are and how skilled of a composer Hoyo-mix is!!

[@Executive14]

[@Neuvari]

wow first time i heard it, thanks for the info

[@Riggs0320]

It'd be great to have you catch up with the game, I had never given it a try until a few months ago and now that I'm caught up it's really one of my favorite stories in gaming, up there with the likes of Nier and FFXIV. Glad you enjoy the music so much, and thanks for the mini lessons mid concert, super interesting stuff! Also, yes I did watch through your account recovery adventure, it was surprisingly enjoyable

[@agni1962]

Haha must have been really hard to avoid the temptation to look at the concert but I am glad that you didn’t spoil yourself, as always, really loved your insights on the music and can’t wait for you to continue your play through!

[@prastagus3]

it shows dedication to play this game, enjoying its music, while not spoiling yourself ahead of time. This way "impact" of the story will hit you harder that way when revealed through game play. Also Honkai Impact 3 is the lovechild of Mihoyo. It is getting an massive engine upgrade in 2024 (rumored). It even has sample of the new engine in progress on KZbin

[@prastagus3]

I graduated from Macross anime "musicals" (except Delta) into Hoyoverse spiritual successor Honkai Impact 3rd "musicals"

Another Great Concert! And As Always, Marco, You bring a whole new perspective with your insights on the music! thanks for doing these man!

[@GrnRaptor]

Hey, I am glad you got to watch the concert. I was thinking of suggesting it after I watched it myself, only to see you had already done so! It looks like you enjoyed your experience, and I appreciated your various breakdowns. Also, glad you got to hear "Oaths" for what I presume to be the first time. It's a great song, and when you come across it again in A Post Honkai Odyssey, I think it'll have even more of an impact (😉) then. Hopefully the leitmotif will ring out to you as well!

[@NeroZeroes]

they need to give Hanser new solo song lol, it's been 4 year

[@TheKhairzNewtype]

I don't blame Hanser getting tired of singing the same song for every damn concert lol

I recently heard her singing the song for Project Bunny on Mihoyo Chinese live event. It was quite good too.

[@Trygorn]

you know chat the thing about Marco not being very far into the story yet means that alot of the "spoilers" you pointed out he would have likely not even known or thought about since hes missing the relevant info, not only that but by making such a big fuss about it they are more firmly planted in his memory. The easiest way to not spoil is to literally say NOTHING and let nature take its course and have those moments drift to his subconscious memory so when he DOES get to that point he can go "oh huh i remember this now" and have context for it to make sense chat being melons aside glad to see you enjoyed some of the music Marco and you continue to be scarily accurate with some of your analyses XD out of curiosity do you have a favorite Valk be it for their character, design, story or are just fun to play? and going off that question who's you favorite character so far? for any reason hope your able to get your account fixed unless you already have

[@Frederic_S]

The Kebin Kaslana part made me cry .. what more can you ask of music? 🥲

[@ottovw]

Well done! You're kumusta! Is SOOOO MUCH better than my own! "Are you with me?" THIS is why I'm here! -Feel better, Luna! #ALWAYSHINE -Thank you, Marco!

[@NateVG]

Half way of the stream the chat ruined my experience watching with Marco, I'm in the Honkai community (or just Hoyo community at this point since I visited all of their games but stayed in Honkai) and even I don't know if the "small" part of the community is the only one who has a loud mouth, I have already watched the concert live, and this might be the 9th times or even more that I watched this again to see others reaction to it. And you know what? The chat was the only thing I was so annoyed in every stream I visited since for those who are new to the game always have to respond to half of the chat about oh spoiler, don't skip this, don't skip that, plz look away, noo how dare you skip it, etc...come on guys you're not THAT silly right? Why is it in every stream I came across there has to be someone to point that out? Huge respect for Marco to follow through that honestly, I was so annoyed I almost quit watching the stream midway but managed to stay until the end.

[@ultrasuper6353]

Those people are the people who say Honkai is the best game ever and get mad if someone have a different opinion. Also most likely they are new players

[@MarcoMeatball]

thanks for staying!

i got shiver all over my body on kevin part,.. the music + his voice (you know, the part where he suddenly raising his tone) its too.. i just can say that "hoyoverse really know what they ar doing"

[@hi3q5]

The reason why Elysian Realm piece doesn't resolve has a lot to do with the story and it means so much more with the context of the Elysian Realm arc. The moment I heard this song live, it immediately breaked me :(

You find Da Capi sad, I find it bittersweet since I know the story and the lyrics make sense

Very nice and enlightening reaction, thx!

[@chaos_aurelius]

alright people, hopefully you (and I) can get the next volume of the artbook I heard people that has 300 and 600 days logged in get boosts so... let's hope for the best iirc in the first war you get points for doing the usual weekly things, + being in agony difficulty for Superstring Dimension (it replaces abyss at lv81 iirc) take this with a grain of salt since it happened quite long ago and I drew from my memory also the pre-installation is now available! (side note: I see that Marco uses Windows 11)

[@riversilk]

1:11:01: My guess is they are keeping Zhou Shen for when the concert main character "host" will be Fu Hua (Last concert was Elysia, this one is Seele, let's hope next is our little birb)

I love the drop when they show Kevin's final form

[@t.k.5088]

I'm very late to the watch party and I'm not sure if Luna's feeling better now (I hope so!), but I wanna leave a message of support and best wishes to her, regardless! I've been on that same tricky/scary situation before, where I had to basically hunt down a vet clinic that would give my furbabies proper diagnoses and treatment. I eventually found trustworthy vets that took care good of them for years. I hope you'll find some, too, Marco!

[@Shinransa]

It's not spoilers if you don't have the full context, right... r- right?! You do have to experience the moments these tracks are tied to though, I cannot wait for more HI3rd streams. You were dodging those spoilers like you were in a FromSoftware game.

[@axisneptune8627]

Hey Marco, thank you so much for your reaction and your comments! As a much lesser known singer with minimal vocal training, it was an amazing experience to perform with Mika Kobayashi. She is a true talent and just owned the stage!

I wonder what will it take for Marco to give this treatment to Dreamy Euphony and/or Starfire Sonorant... I love the Dual Ego analysis - even though it's not one of my favorites, I got an additional appreciation for it. What I would do to get a similar look at Yusuf's Regression or Befall

[@Shadow-zi3xc]

On the topic of hoyoverse, you should check out the new genshin album, and a little tip for ya which I assume you already know, but if you don’t, the stream for Fontaine comes out rlly soon so be prepared for some beautiful French music😋

on honkai dont worry about the spoilers, its all like the cinematics, the story is complex so if u dont have context u will have more questions that answers, so most of spoilers dosnt matter for hi3, dont afect your gameplay if u will play it in the future, even after playing it its still re watcheable 100 times more even less if its lore spoiler, not even story [main story]

[@sodapaula]

Same. For me it’s mostly just dialogue and remaking the scenes we already saw. I feel more connected from the previous concert.

[@ShihouMatsuri]

I think it's likely due to the theme for this year's concert; while last year's was more of celebrating the climax of the main story (both in and out of ER), this year's is more of an epilogue that reminisces about the characters in general. Plus I think they wanted to avoid just featuring the same songs yet another time...
