early march certainly looks a lot more like the mystery girl talking to carole near the end of the hi3 reburn 2 animated short.

This is eileen. A leaked character pre-beta, and thought to be a honkai impact 3rd character before HSR’s release. Its highly speculated this was March and her future form.

[@DG_Toti]

I think they’re just using the Eileen model in place of Setsu because Setsu hasn’t even got a revealed design yet, let alone a model

[@UBatchaVideos]

Yep! This is correct. Sadly even though I added a note, it seems you're one of the few that understood this haha

[@Yusuf51901]

If Elieen was shown in the express Animation of hi3 and hi3 apho was connected with hsr Then Eileen is definitely canon in hsr We just have to wait till we get elieen march

[@su.7f]

that animations was just for hype, theres a 99% chance it isnt canon since carole did not go with welt into this world and welt did so by the hands of void archives

[@Sloth-tr7bd]

We also saw Carole in that animation, yet she's nowhere to be seen or heard about in the game. That animation happened when the game was still in beta, so they probably just rewrote Eileen to be the March we now know. Just like how Welt is the only person from the HI verse in the HSR verse(besides Void Archives, which he was mentioned by Himeko and even Welt himself).

[@luisfillipebeserra2108]

​@@Sloth-tr7bdyeah but we know that march is not her name

[@eiarsan]

​@@su.7f My theory is that the animation took place in the future, where March already recovered all of her memory and became Eileen, and somehow the Astral Express arrived on Earth, hence why Carole was there.

[@OmniHaze4856]

Remember when people said this was 5 star march

[@Violet70725]

I also get confuse.

[@FD-wl7xq]

I mean it probably still is.That’s literally eileen from hi3 and they both look 95% similar

[@dawidpotega882]

this design is more mysterious and in-element of her special ice powers. 4* march only uses ice as ammunition and deploys basic shield spell. This one goes full faster and snow/ice bender, even levitating. This gives me major vibes that she might be emanator of remembrance or ex-emannator and Fuli punishes his chosen by wiping their slate clean after demoting them. Could also be she got into a fight and she "Froze" to prevent herself, but her memories are still frozen which is very much in vibe of Fuli, especially if you play SU and read the recent blessings. Could also be a minor-god that was consumed into remembrance's pantheon. Lesser God/Aeon of Amnesia, all things forgotten? Maybe a forgotten Aeon who became mortal and saved by Fulli to "remember the forgotten". Either way i hope this is going to serve as a base for 5* march or something as cool if not cooler! She looks creepy tho, if they scratch this idea for match i hope this goes for someone else so we get Elsa:D

[@mauri00098]

​@@dawidpotega882 I think is pretty obvious March is a emanator of some of the paths or even of a "dead" path like beauty, her mission with that girl from the mirror and Fu Xuan hint a lot of what she can be, I think they are doing only funny pixie girl kits till some part of the history where she needs to get serious.

[@UBatchaVideos]

The model used is of "Eileen" which is the model used for all test characters. The kit being showcased here is of "Setsugekka"

[@tpnameless6608]

March 7 when firefly take all the light :

[@Sloth-tr7bd]

Y'all this is just a remnant from the early beta days. That's why the ui looks so different. This is not a leak of a potentially upcoming character, it's a footage of something from the early beta. It's clear that it was supposed to be March, but they changed things around and made her as she is. Will March ever appear like that in game? Maybe as one of her forms, similar to that Hunt version of hers. Or maybe this is a 5* variant of her revealed way earlier than it's appearance like it was with Ayaka. But either way, this stuff is old af and shouldn't be treated as anything of value atm

[@UBatchaVideos]

The title literally says Pre-CBT1 and "Early Setsugekka", it was never even about March

[@Shiiroiyo]

Kinda sad we are never going to get this March 7th.

[@suguhirama]

Maybe we’ll. Who knows. It’s never said that it’ll NEVER be March….it can be but doesn’t need to also

[@quackyman796]

The character here is setsugekka, the model is of March (stated in the description of the vid). Unless you were talking about the model then for which I apologize for the misunderstanding

[@KudaGeatsune3821]

0:45 The black "mask" glitches, exposing is 1 to 1. The girl carole met before boarding the express

Ever since Reburn 2 PV it was not confirmed to be Kiana, them sometime later, they showed that she was indeed Eileen, that's March's true name 🤣🤣🤣

[@axusexo]

Ultra instinct march 7

[@CarDaMax1770]

Ok, we are all in agreement that this is an early beta version of March 7th design. But there's one more thing that caught my eye: her clothes and accessories, particularly the blue lamp hanging from the back of her dress. It's pretty much identical to the one Firefly has! I think this means the devs took this early design and split it into 2 characters, wich is quite a common thing to happen during game development. However, it does make me wonder if the connection between March and Firefly goes deeper than that. Are they designed to be narrative foils of one another, given all the contrasts between them? March is trying to find her lost past, while Firefly is fighting to secure her future. March's first form is Ice Preservation, while FF is Fire Destruction, complete opposite both in combat role and element. FF wears a more traditional dress, while March's outfit is more modern. March is loud, outgoing and a little bit sassy, while FF is quiet, more reserved and polite. And FF represents the past life of our protagonist, the Trailblazer, while March represents their current one.

This Eileen's kit is not complete. Setsu? It's Eileen even in Chinese 💀

[@UBatchaVideos]

This showcase is not of Eileen's kit. This showcase is of Setsugekka's kit. Since Setsugekka does not have a model, Eileen's model is used as a temporary replacement in order to have something there. This is the case with a lot of other characters but some for example use March/Pela/Seele etc depending on who's animations best suited the kit

gamedevs will use assets that they have on hand for Proof of Concept, before spending the time and resources on New Art Assets. It's to show Art/Game Directors as fast as possible that the ideas and plans are working/ what needs to improve and change.
