Version 2.1 and 4.2 key visuals have very similar compositions no?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ALSO the 4.2 JPN title 罪人の円舞曲 is read as Zainin no Warutsu and not Zainin no Enbukyoku? (According to pre-release livestream)
Both readings mean Waltz of Sinners but the first one is read as the English word waltz while the second one uses the kanji reading. (It’s for stylization purposes, kinda like 夜神月 is read as Yagami Raito (Light Yagami) instead of Yagami Tsuki.)
Of COURSE they’d do that… They’ve done that for 西風騎士団 being read as Sepyurosu Kishi-dan (Knights of Zephyros) instead of the kanji reading Seifuu Kishi-dan (Knights of the West Wind). In English this is known as the Knights of Favonius (or Ordo Favonius in the manhua)
(Zephyros is the god of the west wind in Greek mythology, Favonius is the Roman mythology counterpart, and the Chinese name just literally translates to Knights of the West Wind or West Wind Knights)

Okay I’ve been wanting to rant about this for a while and I feel like now is the best time to do so after this um… very galpal trailer came out lmao.
But I’ve always found it so stupid when people in the community act as if hoyo would never put any queer coding/queer characters in their games because “they’re a Chinese company so that makes them homophobic (or something); stop trying to spread your agenda!!!!! Not everything has to be queer!!! 🤬" People INSIST that others are just “reading into things too much”.
And listen, I don’t think that any ships or headcannons of mine are actually canon in game and obviously you don’t have to ship characters or think they’re queer that’s totally up to you.
But saying hoyo would NEVER queer code is objectively false. Like, please I’m begging you to look into the HI3 lore/story for just two seconds. There’s even a canonical kiss between Seele and Bronya. They have been creating queer characters for years. I mean come on, you can’t watch that hsr trailer and look me in the eyes claiming they’re dancing in a friendly way lmao.
Yes, there is a lot of censorship from the CCP but censorship is the reason why queer coding exists in the first place. I mean the kiss that I talked about prior I believe is censored in the Chinese release, but the fact that hoyo even tried to include it in the first place is hella commendable and shows that they want to include queer characters in their stories.
That being said, I do think there is a conversation to be held critiquing hoyo when it relates to queer characters such as how a lot of queer coding hoyoverse does is fanservice. I mean hey, companies will be companies and at the end of the day hoyo is trying to sell us a product to get more sweet sweet money. Hoyo isn’t blind; they know when two characters are commonly paired together. Sometimes they play into this to make people more inclined to pull on banners. Black Swan and Acheron are good examples (exhibit a is up above lmao).
I know I’m preaching to the choir here considering Tumblr is not the place most bigots flock to. However, my point in all of this is just to let people interact with media in the way they want to and stop calling queer people delusional when we call out obvious queer undertones in characters. Again, you don’t have to believe said undertones or think any of this is canon, but don’t put queer people down for wanting to see ourselves represented in media.
TLDR: Hoyo is a company known for queer coding and bigots need to let people live.

i'm so convinced that genshin impact devs are allergic to their own game and could care less about rewards, meanwhile we got honkai star rail devs having the time of their lives with game development while rewarding us with a fuckton of pretty things

You know what I love about Kazuscara?
It's the fact that Scara is so full of hate and can and will hold a grudge and if you fucked with him he would find a way to make your life miserable meanwhile Kazuha is different.
When it came to his friend Tomo who died because of the vision hunt decree he felt anger towards the Raiden Shogun and he doesn't forgive her but doesn't let that anger consume him either, with Kujo Sara as we've seen from Iradori Festival Kazuha may not fully forgive her but he understands that Kujo Sara has her own convictions and struggles.
Then there's the thing with Kunikuzushi and the man said it himself he's not gonna look for revenge but instead just live as his great-grandfather hoped he would but he would take action when the situation calls for it.
In short I just love the fact that in a way Scara is still held captive by his past and the hate present in his heart while Kazuha while not forgiving also tries to live in the present.

please pass on this info within the next 10 days BEFORE Star Rail 2.1 because when the version starts everyone will talk over this with their OWN character issues and own impressions from the game.
I’ve explained this about 10 times before getting censored on 3 subreddits and ignored about 5 times. I’m used to it.
Honkai: Star Rail’s new region, Penacony, has served to erase black people, black history, and black influence from the Jazz Age.
I’m rather used to this getting swept under the rug with their other games, Honkai Impact 3rd, and Genshin Impact, but given the amount of money they had been shilling for this game I expected a fresh start. Sooo as a black dude myself I guess it’s been easier to pick up on microagressions plus I’m autistic so my brain runs through things for details well(I’m also a gay dude desperate for representation so yeah I pick up on EVERYTHING).
The Jazz Age itself was a unique period in American History with the rise of prohibition of alcohol and black families celebrating their newfound freedom post slavery and slowly attempting to integrate into a White dominated American society. During this period, African-Americans from New Orleans cultivated the musical style we now know as Jazz.
Tumblr media
Black jazz musicians were the main reason the Jazz Age reached worldwide popularity and Jazz broke out all over America. To sum this up, Black people making the most of their struggles in this time period are responsible for the Jazz Age.
Now it goes without saying that HYV, no matter how much they try to humanize themselves and make the people at the top look innocent, have more or less never been even remotely kind about positive representation of black and brown people in their games.
we sadly know there are no black characters in Penacony. there was NO attempt to pay tribute to African-Americans and their soul in the birth of Jazz. They just stole it to portray magical fantasy white angels devils and robots.
So, they’re spending all this money on advertising with LA events, buying the Vegas Sphere at one point, giving players gratuitous free pulls, making their anniversary into a party, to obfuscate their appropriation and theft of black history.
i’m tired and I know a lot of fans dont have a reason to get invested in the problems of their big fixation or what their favorite game company is doing wrong, you can help if you continue asking them at every new corner, every new promotion, every new character,
Why? Why not depict any black characters in this Jazz fantasy? Why not let us have this one thing? Why release this faux Jazz area to speak over black history month? Why won’t you add Black characters? Why?
