To answer your question about when this plays: it's during the demo trailer that hoyoverse makes when they are advertising the characters. Every character has had their own unique theme made for them and all of them are amazing at capturing the essence of each character. :) If you decide to do more of these I highly recommend Rex Incognito! (Zhongli's demo theme)

And it's referring to the Sakura Tree, which was given to Ei by Makoto in a space outside of time in order to fulfill her dreams (now Ei's too) of a transcient eternity. If I remember correctly, Makoto even says "...all fades away, and the heavenly principles..." so it is my theory that Ei & Makoto's story is definitely not done yet, for we have seen the dream, but we have seen nothing fade away.

Holy cow! Once again, you amaze me with your ability to read a melody like an open book. At 0:55 when you mentioned "stillness" I almost flipped my table. How? In the Raiden Shogun character demo, they used the same melody you described in the first part. In that video 3 words depict this character's story - "nothingness", "stillness" and "eternity". This piece is complex because it describes Raiden Shuogun's past, present and future in different sections. And Raiden herself is a complex character - calm, still and unmovable at one moment, she can be as ruthless and devastating as a furious thunderstorm.

Yeah exactly this! while she is not sneaky you cans till say she is like a beast on the prowl when she does not fight but then, when she springs into action she becomes the storm. She is also basically normally very cold and calculated because of certain reasons, but when she draws her sword the fight basically gets ended in one swing.

Eh, don't overhype it, he missed completely with the assassin/ninja part and the "she joins us because she can see a common interest that'd help her to gain what she's lost". That being said, i never expect someone to retell me the exact details of character story just by listening the music. It's just people here tend to bend the interpretation to match the story to sing more praises for no reason.

She is an assassin, bcz she is a pure warrior. Her role fits her, bcz she is the one who used to always be in front of the battlefield, not like her sister. This is if we talk about raiden ei's personality. But if we want to talk about raiden shogun, that mechanic doll, the music will fit way much better. Bcz raiden shogun doesn't have personality, basically has no forgiveness, ei builds her as a more ferocius and stubborn warrior since her role as a guardian of the eternity (she even won't hesitate to fight ei, her own creator). As for the ninja vibe, i think it's bcz the sound of flute. It goes well with ayato's theme too, and other inazuman characters as well. It resembles japanese vibe. But yeah, she is not a ninja. But still this music has ninja vibe especially in early section

​@@Soundwave1900 no he didnt missed completely, he missed it but he did have a point but since there is not much context he just guesses what it is, she is not an assassin or a ninja but she is a shogun. and the puppet is a pure warrior machine that one shot people like that one big white snake i forgor the name got one slashed to death, does that not sound like an assassin to you? she may not be an assassin but she is heck strong that she can assassinate someone in less than a second. and as for the second part "she joins us because she can see a common interest that'd help her to gain what she's lost" is a guess based on what the music is in cause as stated at the beginning he thought that this music theme is when the character joined ur party so of course it missed it completely since this music is in a demo trailer for advertising and not when in game and obviously it is not the exact of every little detail about the character story, but the melody hints it, hinting what the character is, its only a hint not exact details.

It's already more than 2 years since Inazuma so I'm gonna spoil : Raiden Shogun was created by Ei to protect the "Eternity" and shall strikes everyone who was a threat against "Eternity". But later on, Raiden Ei profound new meaning of Eternity and decided to duel Shogun puppet to change it. Inazuma that was once a closed country, now reopened for the first time in centuries, accepting changes and progression.

This OST really has much more impact when watched with the demo video along with the narrations. But I can understand why you'd prefer reacting to the track itself before watching it. Also, you're absolutely right. Personally, I think her history and journey is definitely one with the most strife and frustration shown in game thus far. There's a lot of emotional conveyance throughout her story quest, more so than any other major character. I think a it's a turning point for players to begin seeing different sides to the world in Genshin. What's interesting is that we don't see a resolution until the very end of her sequence of quests.

As you've been told, this is the music from Raiden Shogun's character demo. Meanwhile, the music from her character *_teaser_* adds yet another layer to the character. Honestly, her teaser trailer is probably the best out of all the teasers so far. Unlike the other teasers, there is absolutely no talking until the end. Just music and images, a story being conveyed purely through visual and audial art. Her teaser still gives me goosebumps to this day.

All 5 star characters in Genshin have their own Trailer OST which lends to their characterisation and themes which is great to see the uniqueness and difference Hoyomix can come up with in a 1-2min short form. Can't wait for more from you as usual and hope you enjoy your playthrough of Genshin and hearing these OSTs in context :)

Seeing another person react to something that often goes underappreciated in video game communities (the music) and fully take it in is really enjoyable, especially when that person is more experienced and knowledgable in music as a whole. I’m a big fan of the game, its characters, and its music, and have basically binged all of your videos on it. You make very good guesses as to the character’s story, style, and personality. If you plan on doing more of these, I recommend Rex Incognito, though there is a tonne of game music to pick from. (Also if you plan on doing another League song, I recommend Aphelios’ theme or Pyke’s theme)

This is from Raiden Shogun's character trailer. Pretty much every character gets one before they come out (not just 5* ones), except for some that released soon after Genshin Impact first came out (Diluc, Jean). These trailers serve as an "introduction" to the characters, who they are, what they're all about etc. In my opinion the music you hear in MOST of these trailers is on par with the music you can hear in the actual game.

So glad YT's algorithms have shown me your channel. I'm lovin watching OST reviews, comments and opinions of the professionals P.S. I think you should watch some trailers too, because visuals usually perfectly highlight, or should I say, strengthen the perception of the music. But be careful, there are dozens of demo's or trailers to watch but also spoilers. Both Liyue Archon Quest arc and Inazuma one are thrillingly good, exciting. And most importantly, take your time - don't rush and fully enjoy the game's lore, mechanics, character's stories

This trailer was released at a different point in the Inazuma arc than the state Inazuma is in before the events that leads to the Raiden weekly boss fight. Also, Kazuha, another character that opposes the Raiden Shogun, has a cool hip hop influence in his demo trailer music, also has a haiku in his video(he likes poetry). It sorta feels like the two vids mirror each other a bit. Be sure to watch the character demos for the music, the visuals are super awesome

Character themes mostly come from out-of-game promotional material, as others have said. Some characters have both a teaser and a demo with different songs, and some have an in-game theme that's different from their demo trailer. Raiden Shogun has a one-off story boss fight with its own music (which is what you already covered), a weekly boss with a different version of that theme, a demo theme AND a teaser theme. I still think no demo theme has topped Zhongli's (Rex Incognito) way back in version 1.1, but the demo themes in general tend to be really good and have some fun trivia and some videogame music references, like the opening bassline of Xiao's (Path of Yaksha, though the demo was called Doombane) being the E1M1 theme from the original Doom or Hu Tao's being an arrange of the Luigi's Mansion theme. (That said as I think you already know, the Shogun's motif, and Inazuma's motif, is just Sakura Sakura, a traditional Japanese tune.) The only characters with their own in-game theme(s) that aren't also bosses are Yun Jin and Shenhe (The Divine Damsel of Devastation for both, which you also already covered; They're not really themes but Yun Jin also sings in-game during an idle animation, her reaction to entering a snowy area and when you add her to your party, Barbara sings a little tune during an idle and Venti plays a lyre during an idle, and there may be one or two I'm forgetting).

New to your channel but found your reactions and analysis fun and interesting. Was wondering if you watch the actual character demo videos these themes premiere in, because personally I feel they add an extra layer of amazingness to the music since the music pairs so beautifully with the cinematography for some videos. If you ever react to the theme for the character Kamisato Ayato, or even Kaedehara Kazuha or Hu Tao, I would definitely recommend watching the video along with the music.

You hit the nail in the head. Raiden shogun( or Ei/Baal, the human inside of the puppet) is a character who seeks out the notion of 'eternity' and wanted her nation to never change and stay the same eternally, which you said you felt like she was a character who was in need/wanted something very badly. and yes, she did. She wanted to protect the eternity that she felt was being threatened by us. But I feel like part 3 of the music change was the inner turmoil on whether it's the best option for her nation or not and I feel like the main melody that you hear at the start of the piece, was the musical interpretation of 'eternity'. But once she realized that nothing can be eternal, thats when that melody goes away/ isn't as strong and stable as it was in the beginning of the piece. She still seeks out eternity though, but in a different way. What she wants now aligns with the wants of the people that live in her nation, and her definition of 'eternity' changed at the end to be aligned with us, the traveler. It's so interesting how you can get so much from a well made musical piece.

Its actually insane how you almost perfectly figured out her character from just the music. She did lose almost everything that was dear to her(her Twin sister Makoto and their friends) besides her land and its people, which pushed her to the point of ruthlessly searching for a way to preserve what she had left for eternity.

@@MarcoMeatball I'm not an audiophile so I do not understand the "language of music". However, it is amazing that you can pick out the "visuals" of the cinematic despite not having viewed it. Not only that, you have managed to pick out characteristics about the character, that is not evident at first glance, and was mostly deeply hidden in the lore. Does that mean filmmakers and composers accidentally spoil themselves because they can see between the lines that the layman cannot? It is essentially a literary analysis the same way a filmmaker analyzes filming techniques and styles to evoke an emotion. I may not understand what you understood, but it was truly educational.
