Imo aventurine's trailer showing his vulnerable side would've decreased the effect of the narrative shift in 2.1 for newer players. The trailer is just like Aventurine, putting up a grand show while hiding his fear of losing very well.

[@thederp9309]

Yeah. It’s his entire personality to be superficial. The entire quest was him talking to himself and not opening up to anyone, it was more self realisation. This was explicitly stated multiple times in the quest… of course he isn’t showing anything

[@user-fc7st1nu9m]

We also saw in the trailer they sneaked a bit of fear/anxiety in his trailer When he was about to reveal the die, his hand was behind his back, showing us that he was hiding his uncertainty. That's pretty on brand with Aventurine who always have a confident front as if everything is playing out exactly how he wants it to

[@gmoney9469]

Agreed. It would take all the punch out of the switch up because people would see it from a mile away and keep that in mind for all his 2.0 appearances.

Sparkle legit shows how Masked Fool’s most dangerous side looks like, imagine if we got another Masked Fool playable character in future but even more unhinged and insane than her… that trailer would be a chaos in a good way for sure!

Does anyone feel weird that aside from March and Serval, we haven't got any trailers for four stars? Like an inverse of Genshin, which started out with no trailers for four stars before giving them full fledged demos.

[@shishiroro6351]

Imo, it seems like they compromised the idea of making 4* char trailers so that they can allocate more resources for the 5* chars trailers. A shame really considering how some of my fave songs in Genshin came from 4* char trailers.

[@aeso3555]

@@shishiroro6351 Yeah, the four stars feel really shafted when it comes to marketing.

[@Jinni-iras17514]

There's so much powercreep in the game that the 4 stars don't even last a patch so maybe they don't bother.

[@ChenAnPin]

@@shishiroro6351 at the end of the day the trailers are intended to hype up the upcoming release of the new 5* character and thus would get the time and attention to making them as opposed to the 4*, but they do still get a video showcasing their abilities narrated by Owlbert similar to how Dainsleif and the occasional Alice would talk about character abilities, though not in the same talk show format as the 5* characters get.

[@duongnhdn]

March got a trailer cuz she's the mascot and icon (literally) of the game. Serval got one cuz she was given out for free for every new player and her trailer was to get more people to sign up.

Huo Huo being at S Tier is 100% deserves. Not only does the trailer have one of the best OST ever but Mr. Tail simply make the whole thing even better when he take control of Huo Huo and use Talisman scene! And I said this as someone who doesn’t have her nor interested in pulling for her.

[@itzrainy_outside4450]

Bro HuoHuo’s trailer is the first time a trailer has actually, fully managed to persuade me into pulling for the featured character. It took me completely off guard with how good it was and the music goes SO hard (my favourite character theme from SR period). Fr who decided that HuoHuos trailer should be hyped af? Like WHY?!

[@ChenAnPin]

Don't feel bad, Kafka's trailer is perfectly rewatchable from the music alone and the gorgeous animation that it was paired with.

[@adumbchicken8022]

I had literally 0 intention of pulling Kafka when she was announced. Then her trailer dropped. I am now a full fledged Kafka main, I even have her LC.

[@willtato1245]

I liked seeing these from a more animation-oriented perspective. I'm definitely biased towards trailers with memorable line deliveries and music timings over animation. I legit listened to Black Swan's on repeat because of her voice, and the music in Seele's, especially the shift when Bronya comes in, really hits for me. That said, I think they try to reserve the more emotional backstory stuff for the Myriad Celestia Trailers, (Ruan Mei's made me go from apathetic to insanely intrigued) especially when it conflicts with their in-game persona. Aventurine has a sad backstory, but as a playable character he's all bravado, meanwhile Acheron is much more serious when you play her, so she gets a more serious trailer. It's similar to Genshin in that way. Furina and Nahida come to mind as characters with VERY different vibes between their respective trailer and teaser. I think it's awesome that HSR does multiple videos for the characters, since the trailers seems to be more marketing oriented (They legit use them as youtube ads), while the others can really add depth to the characters and overall world building.

[@derp_dragons]

Kinda surprising Serval even has a trailer, given that she's "only" a 4* (March doesn't count, she's main crew). Personally, because I'm biased and I think it fits his character of not being a show-off very well, I'd put Jing Yuan into B tier. Huohuo would be A tier for me but other than that, I actually agree with everything. And that's even with me not liking Kafka as a character (her trailer is just so damn good) and my most watched trailer being Blades (the music and style is just so good) still agreeing to their ranking.

[@dontshitontravelermains5498]

Both of Dan Heng IL and Ruan Mei’s Myriad Celestia Trailer completely outdid their own trailers in term of everything tbh, Hoyoverse should just make all of HCQ members make some cameos in IL’s trailer and make Ruan Mei’s trailer become much darker and longer (in terms of length cause why it is so short). Controversial take but because of all of those reasons, I would move Dan Heng IL trailer to C Tier and Ruan Mei in D Tier. Other than that, this whole ranking is extremely accurate imo!

[@kapilkhandelwal48]

DHIL and ruan mei trailer is kinda bad. I had a very high expectation from DHIL after watching that music video but his trailer was so mediocre.

[@dontshitontravelermains5498]

@@kapilkhandelwal48 I feel like they just put all of budgets together into Ichor of Two Dragons animation lol which if you ask me, they should just put the same efforts into his trailer too cause most of people will always choose to watch his trailer for first impression rather than the animation. It’s feel like Hoyoverse mostly just want players to see Dan Heng IL as a strong meta character rather than a character who has interesting lore behind him (same thing can be apply to Jingliu trailer) which is just sad.

[@judaidude5854]

I as a professional Aventurine simp declare this as heresy bc his trailer is not in a tier of its own But fr tho good list

[@dannyiskandar_z6535]

I feel like argenti's trailer and it's environment seems to fit so well since knights of beauty aren't rlly originated from anywhere specifically based on lore. The fact he appears out of nowhere INSIDE the express, having pom-pom involved as an uncalled for antagonist in his roleplay are very good ways to represent him and his delulu for idrila

[@sofialu226]

Camon now, we got more than enough Aventurine Angst in the Main Story, why put it in the trailer, let him be happy for once hahaha 😂. Beside, is not Best Trailer, but I don't think it need to be, because is PERFECT For HIM. I've seen many people disappointed, but first, people really expected Acheron/Sparkle level? And Second, the reason I think is perfect is because its cool, fun and intense just like he presents himself to people and the world. Argenti's is Delulu like him, Black Swan's is Mysterious and menacing like her, Sparkle's is Chaos and insanity like her, Acheron's is Melancholic and powerull like her, and Avneturine's is Fun and Cunning like Him. He never shows his vulnerable side, ever, we only see him like that with the Hallucinations of Himself and with Acheron at the end, he didn't show that side of him to the IPC either, he talked to Jade and his Slave Master with Smug Overconfidence in spite him most likely being scared and them knowing his past, living up to the "Sigonian" Stereotype. So with the Trailers being about the Characters Themselves, his Trailer and the music was Perfect, we only get a glimps of his other side at the end with little Kakavasha and the closing note being a bit slower and chill in comprison to the rest of the music. I mean, *His whole trailer is him doing a Life and Death Gamble fighting monsters while shaking some dice, just like he always does going around beting his life like its not a big deal* But Anyways, I think Aventurine's Trailer is perfect in its own right, but My Favourite Trailer is Sparkle's. I love the crazy bish haha

[@AquilaArts31]

It's fun when people react to trailers of media they like and be hyped about them, but there's just something very satisfying(?) or fun about people with some kind of professional knowledge about the subject reacting to things. Weither this be knowledge in music, animation, movie production, etc. or even knowledge about a certain topic related to the story of the trailer. Even if they don't break it down completely, they always manage to point out things I, who is very much inexperienced on the topic, had missed. 👍

[@leedevee]

Nice video! My top 3 is exactly the same, although Kafka’s & Acheron’s are close and in a league of their own. I love how critical you are, no ‘all are amazing in their own way’. Only thing that made me frown is your take on Serval’s trailer. The fact that she’s singing this amazing pop tune already makes it a hit for me, but I also love the nineties pop color elements and the pacing. She’s channeling Jem & the Holograms and I’m here for it 💖

[@trontrekz]

I love Kafka’s as well but my new favorite is Sparkle. Sparkle’s was so original and unhinged and I loved it. Very much Joker vibes. Also her song was absolutely fantastic. Sadly I don’t have Sparkle but I will get her next rerun.

[@ItzSxllyOfficial]

Kafka’s trailer had me down bad for her . As you can tell thats where my love began for her . Definitely one of my favourite older trailers

[@kapilkhandelwal48]

My top 3 would be Sparkle, Kafka , and Argenti/ Silverwolf special mention Topaz.

[@spencerbolden5878]

Kafka for me was an instant S rank because I play violin and that violin playing in her trailer is amazing

I also thought ruan mei's trailer was just ok, but one of my favorite lines from any trailer is at the end, "you still hold... academic value"

My top 3 are 1: Sparkle even tho Kafka is my favorite character in the game her trailer is just so good,the animations, the colours, the music lives in my head rent free and how well it represents her 2: Kafka The music is epic, the animation amazing, it displays her very well 3: Huohuo I dont know why i like this one so much, i just do

[@eherden2169]

Well first time I read it I did registered as Adventurine until I realized that the IPC names are based on minerals when they mentioned other names in 2.1 story. Another reason is that he has "the will of D", hence his good luck.

I think its still intriguing that so far (and probably only) March 7th and Serval are the only 4* characters to have their own dedicated trailers. While granted the production value on them were fairly limited and like many early 1.0 trailers mostly made use of their in-game animations to try, hoyo still decided to show them off before the game was even released. I can understand with March 7th why since she has essentially become the mascot for HSR.

[@joaomarcoscosta4647]

Nice list! I consider the "Animated Short: A Flash" to be the real Jing Yuan's trailer.

[@zvephemeral]

Man, I think Monodrama is my personal favorite, the chills never stop never abate, but Kafka taking it all is super fair, definitely in my own top 3.

[@inspectorwhoreacts]

Kafka trailer literally almost made me cave in and get the game, if my moblie devices were buffer, I'd be playing it now.

[@Jackie_Tikki_Tavi]

Agree with a lot of these. Himeko's beat drop always get me in that "lump in throat" mood and I can't explain it. Jingliu I wish was in A because it really hit emotionally for me on the drop, but I guess it's a matter of being invested in her story and cue into that, but visually, yes there were others that did more. I think it's at least on par with Blade's, rubs shoulders with Silverwolf's with how tailor made it is for the featured character, and a step below those that gave us a short movie basically. Acheron's is by far the best with the journey it took you on, holy. Sparkle's was just an emotion I didn't know how to name. It really showed us who she is, more than what the game gives us. 10/10 for those two. Kafka's was very well made, very well directed, intentional, but it didn't hit that extra mile that only the trailer reveals to you. "Impressive" is what I felt, but didn't come out of it understanding/seeing more of Kafka other than what was already said before. 9.5/10

[@Aizen2468]

I agree with pretty much every single one of your picks XD only ones id maybe be slightly different were: Topaz down to A. Blade up to S. Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan up to B. But i was on the border for those, so its easy to interchange. I liked the beat drop for Fu Xuan's trailer, which raised it a tad for me based on that alone. Jing Yuan, I LOVED the imagery for it, the beat, and i remember being utterly blown awau when he summoned Lightning Lord the first time in that trailer. That trailer has kinda gone down to a B over time for me as more beastly trailers have come out. Blade's was the one that got me utterly bought into HSR, and made him my favorite male character. Jing Liu is my favorite female character, but yeah, i agree her trailer didnt go as crazy as a lot of others went. But Blade's was just soooo good. And that changeup where he gets stabbed still is so awesome to see! The color effects, music, his voice over. Loved it. Topaz, it was funny, i agree. The Herta scene carries it, along with the beat. But other than those two parts, i never really found it to be as top tier as some others have put it. I actually enjoyed Black Swan, Silver Wolf, Argenti and Dr. Ratio's more, even. Maybe my bias against Topaz as a character went there too, idk. My top 3 are the same as yours. Also, Kafka and Sparkle are interchangeable for me XD Huo Huo for 4, and Blade for 5.

[@reezwave]

We have very similar opinion, cus my top 3 best trailer from HSR are Sparkle, Kafka, and HuoHuo.

Sparkle is such a funny caracther for me,i wasnt a big fan of hsr before i saw her on the special program,now i love the game

[@tactaillike]

acheron and sparkle's trailers are easy top 2 picks, though the cinematography in Your Color is on a whole 'nother level even compared to Monodrama so i'd put that as number 1 Topaz is my personal 3rd favorite for making a really strong impression at the start (and yeah its also really funny) and Black Swan in a very close 4th oh yeah and why in the god damn hell, hoyoverse, does Welt not have his own character trailer, this man DESERVES an s-tier trailer

These rankings are objectively correct 👍🏻 😊

[@ubermenschen01]

Honestly they did Fu Xuan dirty, like they literally just had her list off her basic/skill/talent ("Novaburst", "Shown by Hearts", "Woes of Many Morphed to One"). It's like the script writer didn't sync their Google Drive and lost part of the script. I thought Ruan Mei's trailer was very mid, but watching an amateur filmmaker comment on it, it's a bit more interesting than I thought. They also pointed out that BS' trailer is all about multiple layers of framing. Like there's the framing of the camera, and the shot is literally framed by a picture frame, and then BS is inside a different picture frame. Very interesting.

[@ChenAnPin]

yeah a lot of the Luofu character trailers were not that interesting (Bailu, Yanqing, Jingyuan, DHIL) Jingliu's was good, but it seemed to be more an insight to her internal struggles against herself (or of her past) than anything. Still lots of great excellent shots showcasing her skill with the blade and her association with the moon Fuxuan is kinda mixed, some of the shots are pretty good and her abilities are gorgeous, especially her Ult. Her saying her abilities as she does them kinda reminds me of how a lot of anime has characters doing so, so perhaps its a callback to that. The comic relief of adding Qingque was an odd but fun choice. Huohuo's trailer is by far the best among the Luofu cast

[@dustinabigan2776]

I think what really made Sparkle's trailer stick out was how different and weird (in a good way) the whole thing was when the character trailers that came before her either had chill or chill-looking characters or the vibe wasn't as intense/unhinged. Ruan Mei, Dr. Ratio, and Black Swan all look so composed the whole time during their trailer as if they don't care. And then here comes Sparkle having an unhinged trailer almost immediately, then seeing her in the game being just as unhinged and chaotic made it better. Pretty much no effort was spared in making that trailer unsettling.

[@insertnamehere1398]

I think sparkle is going to be the best trailer for a loooonggg time. that's ssaying a lot since kafka's is so good

[@redshiftedlight205]

I feel like my hottest take in all of HSR is that I thought Acherons trailer was pretty meh. I loved the visuals however the first half I found pretty boring. Her just fighting Sparkle clones felt pretty random to me and it's not really giving anything in relation to who she is as a character. The 2nd half was way better, but I still feel like there was just a lack of cohesion between the parts. Everything just felt like random stuff happening without any reason or any purpose. I absolutely love Acheron as a character and I've tried but her trailer was just not doing it for me

[@thederp9309]

The selling point for her is hype. Most people don’t care for a coherent trailer. They would rather have a more hype one. For me, the music was kind of a turn off from the trailer, I just didn’t like it and I was more hyped to see the other characters involved than Acheron herself. The trailer did feel kind of messy.

[@redshiftedlight205]

Top 3 I agree with, and most of these I would rank similarly. I think the one I disagree with the most is Himeko and Jing Yuan, I think their placement should be flipped.

Finally! Some Topaz love. I never see anyone talking about her. I pulled her when she came out (mostly because i needed a fire unit) and haven't regretted it. One of my most used characters. I also really like her character in-game and think she had quite a strong story for the short amount of time that we saw her. Have to disagree with the placement of Luo's trailer though

[@leoniichan1229]

To put it in the way she'd say, you've made a really smart investment. In the long run topaz is indeed a better investment compared to the likes of jingliu and dan heng. Plus she's pretty good for SU with elation path. So yeah, I can see why

[@riskypenguin]

You being a video trailer editor makes sense. Your "Genshin Boys" redeem on Twitch was one of my favorites.

[@Ranakel]

Well, I wondered if there'd be any hot takes there. Turns out I found the opposite, like, not a single thing I disagreed with! Even Huohuo who wasn't that much on my mind and I thought would go to A I just rewatched the trailer and like, yeah.

[@someperson69420]

Kafka peak

[@PreservationFollower]

For me of course, Mr Aventurine!

[@psychedelicbruiser]

finally some love for huohuo's trailer 🥹

[@twilightwolf6248]

NAH NO WAY AVENTURINE IS THAT LOW?! and Kafka above Acheron and Sparkle?!

[@JJ-mn3nd]

You think hoyoverse, the billion dollar game company, didn’t have the budget for the earlier trailers?

[@Blackoutdmc]

I don't think anyone would disagree that Kafka and Sparkle's trailers are easy S tier.

[@runaway1635]

Saying this before watching the video. Blade better be either A or S

[@Relevart9169]

Personally Sparkle's trailer kinda feels like its trying too hard? Like her shooting herself with the gun would've been so good,... if she didn't do it 50 times ...

[@ilikechickennugget9815]

imo acheron has the best trailer

[@Kris_King]

Probably a hot take but I prefer Black Swan's and Acheron's, Sparkle's and even Jingilu's and Ruan Mei's trailers over Kafka's. I like it when a trailer makes me intruiged about someone while Kafka was just her killing security (still really cool though dont get me wrong).

[@Catamaran-uh2np]

Topaz is completely deserving S

[@shadowhogg666]

Mine is more or less the same just swap Acheron and Sparkle around
