Myriad Celestia Trailer — "Kyoden: A Cleave Across the Transient World"

THERE'S SO MANY HI3 REFERENCE HERE to the point that video alone could make a big money for standlone game !

For many HI3 reference, let those lore master handle the talk (lol). When AcheSwan video release I thought this "Mei" is HoT different AU if her Kiana died, which seems not so far fetched aside she become HoO. It's kinda ironic since HI3 Mei become HoO basically because of power of her love to Kiana and Elysia (let's simplified as that XD)

From pionner relics lore, I guess we can deduce that Acheron's Kiana I mean Frebass timeline is more backward than myriad celestial since it explained Frebass is just a 14 year old nameless girl. If we think they're same age, Acheron nowdays should be 18 or 20 ish.

Now into the interesting part, almost nothing explain about Frebass whereabouts in two Acheron videos ! So what's happened to the nameless girl diving herself into nihility ? One scene from Black Swan memories indicate the very same rooftop HoTMeiKiana scene which isn't a good sign...

And let me added something as that video showing a clear words that HI3 connected to HSR. Kiana is a human made person by Otto, meanwhile HI3 Otto already remove all branch of his existence as price of saving Kallen. Which means Kiana is special entity only at HI3, so there's possibility Frebass isn't Kiana but Durandal (real Kiana) like existence.

Now I watch the video I just feels grateful Otto doing so many things to stop honkai... if not for him, in one possible universe HI3 could become Izumo HSR

I only hope these missing piece will be explain in TB 2.1 !

PS : I guess HSR will cook really hard at 2.1 TB quest, with Acheron lore become like that it's all about how Aventurine past could beat Mei angst max level. So let's prepare lot of tissue and don't read it at public place (lol)

#honkai star rail #honkaimpact3rd #raiden mei #acheron #after saw that video I kinda think maybe Ei is hoyo experiment to create a new MEI but failed #we all know how Ei writen pretty bad #which is maybe the reason Nahida not using Theresa models #but for hsr as honkai children they can export the lore (lol) #it gonna be pleasant suprise to see Welt reaction on her #at the same time this AU telling something hard to shallow #if you try to save one person you must sacrifice the other one #HI3 Kiana still alive after saved by Himeko #but HSR Himeko become astral express member... #which indirectly (maybe) become a cause of frebass dying #put aside Acheron Kiana things #I'm now worried Aventurine lore can't beat her sorrow #eh it's not competition which more sadder I know (lol) #but as hoyo older player I moreless know how scary trio hoyo girls stories could go #this is something scarier than Yoimiya banner always side by side with archons bannef (lol) #Acheron please have mercy on Aventurine ! #and you know Acheron and Aventurine had one similarity ? yups it's lone survivor 😭 #happy one year anniversary hsr 😭

Your opinion on Jung from Scarlet Heart Ryeo, which other Jane Austens should be modernized or genderbent, and Legolas. :)

OH MAN THESE QUESTIONS!!! 

 1. Jung! Jung is the son I didn’t realize was so awesome for the first few episodes. It doesn’t help I kept confusing him with Eun for a while! But now that is cleared that up I just keep noticing all the ways he is a good and true-hearted young man, even if he is not always the wisest. 

 Some random and out of order examples:Jung is a promising young warrior and has a both pride and humility in that department. I mean, he loves to fight so much, whether just for fun or for the adrenaline of competition or to improve himself or whatever, but he never gets upset when he loses. He will fight soldiers and common folk alike and have a great time doing it, and if my memory serves me correctly he doesn’t get mad that the bear girl (so sorry sweetie I can’t remember your name) holds her own and even defeats him. 

 He has an admirable sense of justice, and that shows in his treatment of both So and Soo. Especially as the episodes go on, he grows fond of Hae Soo, and they have that bonding moment when he is about to be dismembered and she stays to help him. After that, he never stands by without protest when she is ill-treated. When she is banished, he turns to Wook and tries to spur him into helping her. (Kind of like Baek Ah does all the time but Baek Ah is wiser and turns to So.) I feel like Jung at the start is this innocent and naive young man, who just loves his mother and his brothers and martial arts. He means no harm and just wants a normal family. But as things happen, he starts to see injustice, sees his mother and brother Yo ill-treating So, and it starts to bother him more and more. And eventually he starts to protest, to walk out of the room when they discuss treacherous matters. And yet he loves them still! Which makes the episode where it at least looks like Yo died even sadder than it already is… 

I love Jung. Which probably means he will die or suffer further tragedy because that is Scarlet Heart Ryeo for you :((Also early on there is much brotherly love and teasing and Jung is a big part of that and I looove that) 

2. Other Jane Austen’s that should be genderbent and/or modernized? Hmmmmm. Well I really want to think about this more but here are a few thoughts off the top of my head. I would LOVE to see a modern genderbent sense and sensibility just because I love the story so much but honestly I feel like it might be difficult and I have NO idea what that would look like. Maybe Persuasion would be the best…two young people in love and forced to split up. You would have a lot of options for the female wentworth’s risky yet ultimately successful occupation: a singer or stage actress or film actress…Or stay in the military, or some type of sport, or….orrr really i don’t know but I do know that I love the thoughts and the inner workings of Anne’s mind, thoughtful and insightful and wise and kind even when difficult and honestly if you ever try your hand at an adaption I know it will be beautiful and angsty!!!

3. Legolas!!! OKAY so listen up. I was 13 years old and a couple at church shoved the extended edition of the Fellowship of the Ring in its deep green glory into my mother’s hands and said WATCH IT. So me and my mom and sister watched it and I was mesmerized from the start but OH HEAVENS when Legolas rode (floated) into Rivendell on that grey white horse and leapt to the ground and turn his head breathing in the elvish realm my heart fluttered as it never had before because he was an ANGEL I had never seen anyone so ethereal and like whoa 

 And that was cool and all but then during the council of Elrond when Boromir was hating on Aragorn (sorry Boromir I love you too) this beautiful elf jumped up and defended Aragorn with fire and friendship and yeah I was like BROTP before I even knew what a brotp was (also Aragorn looks embarrassed I love it, please sit down Legolas) and then there was the amusing rivalry with Gimli 

AND THEN he walked over the rocky hills with them and his hair blew in the wind and I was like mom I am going to marry Legolas and she was like ok dear um he’s fictional you know?AND THEN. Caradhras and he walked on snow? Like what?  

ANNND THEN Moria and he used his bow and arrow for the first time and him fighting by the tomb of Balin like he was so GRACEFUL and STRONG and then he saved Boromir from falling and then Lothlorien and he became friends with Gimli like BROTP AGAIN and OK you know what this post will be forever if I continue on in this fashion

For now let me just say that movie Legolas thrilled my young soul and heart and he was beautiful and strong and skilled and deadly and was besties with both Gimli and Aragorn. And then I read the books and even though the original character is different from Peter Jackson’s version I just I loved him still? The same but different? Like he was so young and sometimes naive but still wise and fair of heart and here is this young elf, probably in the equivalent of his early twenties come down to Rivendell where he stands up and confesses his and others failure to keep Gollum in custody and Elrond is like yo the world’s in danger wanna help? And he says sure! Like he must know stories of Sauron and the last alliance and why does he choose to go anywhere near Mordor? To make up for his grandfather’s impatience and lack of ability to collaborate? To avenge the deaths of elves he may never have known? To be part of the effort to destroy the greatest evil known to him? To strike a decisive blow in defense of Mirkwood, dark and overrun with spiders? WHY I NEED TO KNOW THE THOUGHT PROCESS 

 ALSO LEGOLAS IS RIDICULOUSLY FUNNY. FAREWELL I GO TO FIND THE SUN! LOL WELL HE WAS OFF DANCING MERRILY IN THE SOUTH OR WHATNOT SO I DIDN’T BRING HIM AFTER ALL 

 AND HE FREAKING TAKES GIMLI OVER THE SEA WITH HIM LIKE NO BIGGIE LEMME JUST BRING MY BESTIE TO A BLESSED LAND WHERE ONLY ELVES (AND RINGBEARERS) ARE ALLOWED TO TREAD. SURE HE IS A DWARF WHO CARES? THE VALAR? THE OTHER ELVES? EH THEY CAN JUST LEARN TO DEALI LOVE LEGOLAS AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT AND THOUGH I HAVE COME TO LOVE MANY OTHER CHARACTERS HE WILL ALWAYS HOLD A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART I MEAN I HAVEN’T EVEN TOUCHED IN HALF THE REASONS WHY I LOVE HIM

#this was ridiculously long #i really do like jung #and love legolas #and oh the possibilities for Jane Austen!!!

Girls’ Last Tour 8 - 9 | Houseki no Kuni 8 - 9 | Netjuu no Susume 8 - 9 | Mahoutsukai no Yome 8 - 9 | Juuni Taisen 9 - 10

Girls’ Last Tour 8

Why do I get the feeling the girls will lose the camera soon?

I noticed the names on the drawers before the girls did. I just never mentioned it.

That snow transition to Chi was…weird…

I think at least a small part of the problem with this show is that it’s drab. Another part is that your appreciation of the show depends on how you view it as relaxing or mind-numbing when you watch it week-to-week. Yet another aspect is that it rides upon, also, your appreciation of the philosophical content that you’re allowed to wade in as part of the show.

“Pumped up” doesn’t seem to be the right word, subbers. I don’t know why (maybe context?), but I don’t feel pumped up when I see the moon. The moon, to me, would be motivating if I were in their situation, but it sure wouldn’t pump me up…

“Magic power”? Judging from the mouthflaps, the word was mahou which just translates to “magic”, and would’ve done decently here too.

Please don’t ship the lolis…

Please don’t make the lolis drunk, either…

Underage drinking! Censor it, censor it! (half-joking tone)

Huh? There’s a small after-credits segment. Keep watching…

Uhh…*thinks about a compulsive habit involving hair eating* Yeah, no thanks.

Girls’ Last Tour 9

If humans are the only living things left, what about the fi-yeah, spoke too soon.

Why did a robot want to protect a fish anyway?

Yuu has discovered the human capacity to float after kicking.

Chi’s favourite conversant is a box. A grey box. Amazing… (sarcasm dripping)

Chi has discovered the thing from One Piece known as Super Drowning Skills.

As they said in Finding Nemo, “fish are friends, not food”! Hahaha.

These robots look like something out of a Shaun Tan book, yeeps. (Didn’t see the construct-o-bot too clearly the first time he appeared.)

It’s like a mother talking to a daughter, only this time it’s in robot-speak. All 1s and 0s…

I did not come here to watch robots explode. But these robots exploding…cool! Like an action movie!

What was that last part with the robot communication circles and patterns for? I guess it made more sense with the volume on, huh…

Houseki no Kuni 8

Why do I get the ominous feeling the biting “ice floe” was Aculeatus or someone like that (and not Ventricosus, the king)?

I love how grumpy Antarc is when they’re like, “Tha failure is all mine” and they’re just holding their hand like it’s no problem. The hand really is no problem, especially in contrast to Phos, come to think of it.

It’s hard to convince someone when you literally have no hands to do it with…

“I raise my hands in defeat.” – Phos in on my level of puns. I was going to make a hand pun and then they come up with this, which is much better than what I could think up on the fly.

Notice Phos is the only colour in this winter world…

I knew gold was soft and platinum too, but…what does that have to do with-oh wait. Never mind.

It’s like something out of a horror film…it’s sheer genius.

Oh dear. It seems I’ve fallen for a sensei-only yandere. What a problem…

Hey, doesn’t this look familiar? Like a kagune, for instance?

U---uwahhhhhhhh…My boy Antarc was taken and now he’ll be Lunarian weapons…Plus with those cracks, Phos looks sadder than usual…

Huh? ED change? “Liquescimus”?...Oh, I see.

This next ep preview…is weird. Especially because you see Kongou-sensei smash his head into a wall…

Houseki no Kuni 9

When they said spring was a time for change, I’m betting they didn’t mean this…(what happened to Phos)

Interestingly, the gold looks like a rapier. Or some other old-timey sword. Then it becomes a spider lily, which is a symbol of death.

Phos’s eyes look like Antarc’s used to…plus they’ve gained a personality like theirs too.

Crying? A defect? No, no…

A bit of a mess? No, Phos, you’re more than a mess.

Phos is still wearing the old uniform, huh. Mourning clothes.

Ah, so that’s where Phos mentions it’s gold and platinum. No wonder Karandi knew…

So it’s not “with great power comes great responsibility?” Or is it just the subbers having fun?

Cinnabar seems to be a lot like Bakugo. Just without the extreme “I’ll beat you up!” stuff.

Phos’s jerk face, LOL. Haven’t seent that in a while…

Netjuu no Susume 8

I’m really unsatisfied with the fact I’ll have to say goodbye to this show in 2 episodes…It’s been my favourite for this entire season, and when the competition is strong, that means this show – with all its fluff and misunderstandings – has done itself more than enough to deserve a spot on my favourites list.

This is Netjuu no Matome (Summary of an MMO Junkie). Honestly, my translation works a lot better than CR’s this time don’tcha think?

Hayabusa (Falcon) Moving Company. Makes sense if Amazon is its RL counterpart…

…then it turns out they wrote Hayabusa backwards on the moving van (Sabuyaha). LOL wut.

The ep title seems to be “[I] took a step forward”.

Harth? Well, spoilers. You just ruined my life…sort of.

I half-expected Yuki’s hat to blow off, but hey, this is an MMO. Hats don’t blow off unless you want them to.

Notice Sakurai uses keigo.You use keigo with people you don’t really know, by the by.

Dammit! Sakurai’s hot but Harth is better! Argh, such a simple artstyle. I shouldn’t be worked up over hot guys when there’s such a simple artstyle…

The eyecatches are so good. Why would you get rid of them in this episode, of all episodes???

T-They could’ve been lying to each other, like in And You Thought There Is Never a Girl Online? ??? Gah, but this show is so sweet, I’ll forgive it.

As soon as Sakurai’s battery died, I swear I just heard The Entertainer in my head. As if it’s all some big dream I’m bearing witness to. But of course, it’s fiction. It’s basically a shared dream for the lot of us who know about it. A sweet shared dream we can access anytime.

Every time I look at that credit list and see Maeno as Harumi…yeah…not gonna think about it. But it seems double-Sakurai even got Harth as a role. Wowee, Sakurai!

Netjuu no Susume 9

One episode and one OVA to go before these guys are gone…

“I Call That Feeling Marble” – Why “marble”?

Sono Kimochi Ma-buru…so they weren’t quite lying when they said “marble”, eh? Sono Kimochi would translate to “that feeling”. However, ma-buru could be “marvel”, so it could be “I Call That Feeling [a] Marvel” (which makes a lot more sense).

I swore Morimori-chan would’ve asked to be partners! The fact that she didn’t was so disappointing…

There were some ducks drifting along in the foreground of one shot.

What happened to Harumi, come to think about it?

Is there an equivalent to TGIF in Japanese???

*Morimori-chan jumps out of chair* That’s me whenever I get a text, hahaha.

The show shows its Comico roots – that park background looks like it came out of a visual novel, which is a sort of trademark of Comico series like ReLIFE and it. Nanbaka, on the other hand…if you’ve seen it before, you’ll be aware of what that show’s visual quirk is.

So the woman’s name isn’t Sendai, but Yashiro? Okay then.

I want a Fujimoto-centric thing now. Please, someone? Do it for me?

I feel like Sakurai and Tenya Iida would be good brothers in an AU. They act in similar ways to each other.

Mahoutsukai no Yome 8

The shot to the head (Cartaphilus received) was so brief, I actually found it funny.

“This girl [Chise] has strange taste.” – Indeed, she does. But that’s why we follow her.

“But you don’t hate it, do you?”

Joseph…?

Mahoutsukai no Yome 9

(looks at shop sign when Chise sits down) Someone can’t spell “biscuits”…

How did Ruth learn the familiar binding spell anyway? Does Elias have a familiar, too? Or does he not have one since he’s part fairy?

It’s really hard to see what Elias’s monster form no. 3 (or is that no. 2?) looks like.

The humour in this show is somewhat unwarranted. It doesn’t always work, either. (I like a majorly consistent show best. Incongruous mood whiplashes don’t always work, after all.)

Is it Silver or Silky? I still don’t understand…

These roses must mean something in flower language…

Apparently there used to be an old trend of lesbian vampires. It’s a pretty old-fashioned trope, so it feels quite at home here. Update: Scratch that, a Leanan Sidhe is apparently more of a succubus, which was the exact vibe I was getting from her. Lesbian succubi? That’s a new concept.

That dragon!!!

Juuni Taisen 9

I think I’ve seen some spoilers saying Rabbit dies. I already knew everyone bar one *eyes Rat* will die anyway, but the game is in seeing how they die.

Were CGI models the best for this moment? Probably not, but there was some good movement from Usagi there.

Did you notice the shining light when Ox repositioned his sword (after he jumped)?

100-person…that reminds me of the SekaTsuyo “Hundred Throws” thing, but please don’t talk to me about SekaTsuyo…

Of course Kanae’s backstory has drinking in it. Her tagline has to do with “drunken rage”…(half-sarcastic)

Hey, this episode is titled after Rabbit. Isin’s genre-breaking strikes again. Also the scribbles on the faces is a nice touch, but not as good as the marionettes from Rampo Kitan.

I swear they’re relying on CGI models for the Ox and Tiger in this episode...

I’d like to headcanon Eiji is good at soccer. Not as the Ox, but just as himself.

Well, “CGI models” was definitely true right there when the Tatsumi bros attacked.

Those ice effects got put to good use, at least.

If you sit a bit of a distance from the screen, you can see they really are CGI models, the Ox and the Tiger. Graphinica’s really pulling out the stops – after all, didn’t they just say “don’t do what you’re unused to doing”?

Juuni Taisen 10

*as some insigificant sniper falls to his death* Yeah, let’s ignore the bad quality of that…

Dangit, Ushii hasn’t been given a birth year! No, why Isin??? Why??? (But does Kanae use Chrome on her iPad?)

Slicing the bridge is a bit much, y’know, Ushii - even for my suspension of belief.

Who knew a stab to the heart could be more touching than any other death in this show? Maybe it’s a stab…to my feels. (You’re all groaning now, aren’t you?)

So…no explanation for home boy Usagi, then?

I think two of the kanji from “To Treat A Man Beef From His Own Cow” (the title, not the episode) are from Gobouken (the name of Ushii’s sword, and the name also means “bayonet”), which is interesting.
