venti: When a light breeze rustles through your hair, know that it's me thinking of you from afar😙 zhongli: When meteors start crashing onto you, know that it's me needing mora 😭 raiden: When lightning strikes you, know that it's me trying to cook💀
You just have to look in the right direction. Kurattes, KKomda, Miota, Hamelin. etc(Interesting how many of them are "CONTENT" creators from Asia?) Away from EN streamer especially. JP streamers are wholesome, so are the popular ones in CN. For EN, go Minsleif, and Sevvy only. I'd recommend a few more, but they are all changing in one way or another as of late and showing signs of turning into a baldy.
I get that Xiao's voice is absolutely beautiful, but is no one gonna talk about what he actually sang? If you translate his usual convoluted xiao-nese into common folk talk, the boy basically said: - 'please don't worry about me' - 'you can complain about anything at all, and I'll listen to you (even if I'm not physically by your side, and find the daily, mundane happenings to be trivial and unimportant)' And - 'I'll remember this song so that, if you ever get stuck, I can remind you how much you are loved (even though that would mean that I, the big bad vigilant yaksha, actually abandoned my pride to sing this at least once and is probably willing to sing it again for your sake)'. My heart is Actually dying on the ground this is so precious I love my boy- Can you tell that I am a 100% Certified Xiao Simp™?
"摸鱼" literally means "catching fish by hand", something you do for fun, thus the slang meaning "slacking off". "touching/patting a fish" is a bit weird🥸
why does this song sounds so nostalgic??? like it hasnt even been like a year or something, but it has a nostalgic and like "i miss you" feeling to it omg
ikr, maybe its bc of the times I've spent making friends in the genshin community, or just the thought of it all going to end one day. Whatever it is this song rly does sound very nostalgic
@@shuiihara7084 RIGHTTT though it's just a simple story game, it means really a lot for some of us and like the actual thought that it's going to end is SO ADASGFAGFG i'm gonna miss this game so much
@@odice.5564 knowing Mihoyo, it will take them 4 years to reach midway through the story. Don't worry, we have plenty of time to enjoy this amazing game!
"everyones talking about _ but lets talk about__" NO SHUSH LETS TALK ABOUT THE WHOLE THING edit 9 months later: this song is more serotonin than serotonin itself, i still love it so much
Who Tao's chinese voice has some singing maybe u can have a look at it ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-g7NSS5IuSR4.html&ab_channel=MadamePing
Right??? Not only that but I'm pretty sure Venti's english and japanese voice actors can both sing pretty well too. I don't know about his korean voice actor but I wouldn't be surprised if they can sing as well.
@@amyding5282 that's true but it gets really hard focusing on what you like when other people who don't like it are constantly up in your face about it
As soon as I heard Xiao’s voice, I. Oh my god, he has such a beautiful voice, it’s so calming. It’s like a singing voice that I want to listen on repeat, if any of genshin VAs have done other songs please let me know, I love this so so much
Xiao's VA, kinsen, has a channel here where he uploads covers (mostly Japanese covers) under the username “kin sen.” He also voices Chongyun though so his normal voice is a lot higher-pitched than what you hear in this video.
Well, Genshin VAs are very talented. Mostly they do covers, but surprisingly better than the original. In EN dubs, it's Cristina Vee (Bennet/Xingqiu's VA), she sings some couple songs like "Unworthy of Your Love" and "Show Yourself from Frozen". She collabs with Griffin Burns (Childe's VA) in those songs. Khoi Dao (Albedo's VA) can sing French and Japanese fluently, he is very talented. In CN, Liu yin Kana (Aether/Scara VA) and Kinsen (Chongyun/Xiao VA) collab is the famous one in the community. Miaojiang (Venti VA) also like to sings godly like this one. JP dub usually sings for anime and other game, but I don't know that much since they dedicated most of their time in anime dubbing. I only know Ayaneru (Yae Miko VA) sings for a band "Afterglow", and NojiKen (Albedo VA) collabs with his son, who is also a VA. You can found their songs in Spotify. KR, I really have no idea about their works, but I hope I can know them more.
In Genshin lore, the voice of Barbatos has been said to be so entrancing and beautiful that it charms all creatures. Dvalin loved Venti's singing. Even the birds gather around Barbatos when he sings. I believe the Chinese VA really captured that because holy hell that is such an angelic voice

>>Dvalin was one of the creatures that loved Venti's singing. And according to the lore Durin wanted to hear it too. And he did, in his own twisted way T__T
I love the fact that these basically became canon on this lantern rite. Klee running around while holding qiqi's hand on the lantern rite promotional trailer. Xiao and Venti meeting and interacting during xiao's trailer and during the lantern rite banquet.
"Know thats me blowing the darkness for you" "That's me thinking about you from afar" WHY ARE FICTIONAL CHARACTERS MORE COMFORTING THAN REAL LIFE PEOPLE OMG 😭
To be honest, I've actually thought about this in real depth, and I truly think it is because their creators are able to script and have time to think about what those characters would say. I.E. The writers think before they let the characters talk. I think a lot of people (myself included) don't think about what they say or do before they do them, which often causes a lot of hurt in the long run. Edit: That, and people are too afraid to let others see their true selves. I think a LOT of people have more emotions than we let on, but we keep them inside as to not show others our vulnerabilities. If this makes any sense... xD;
I'm actually crying, this song is so comforting and adkgjdjss the game has been my way of escapism and the characterisation for the lyrics make it that much more immersive
I thought I was the only one crying, Like seriously, I was so stressed out and having mental breakdowns then I saw this. It made me happy and for some reason my tears just burst Lmao. I started crying when the song just started :D Never been this emotional before
I have been blessed to see this in my feed again. I'm not a genshin player anymore but this song will always be one of the reasons I loved genshin. Thank you for this amazing song!! May everyone get the 5* that you want ☺️
ty ur comment made me ehe,, a salute to all the unsung hero support characters out there who are chill with conceding the spotlight to uplift and highlight everyone else…venti’s VA walked so everyone else could run…or maybe glide bc it’s faster
Xiao: "if you find yourself clinging onto the past, reluctant to move on, I shall remember these poems in my heart" Venti: "if you grow tired of gravity and wish to fly, then I'll let all the winds of the world blow towards you." This 😭😭 #Xiaoven
Such cute friends :) not everything has to be a ship :))) (I’m not hating on gay people by the way, I’m just aroace, and want some representation with my comfort character venti not being romantically interested in anyone.)
Klee: *sings* Me: Aww, her voice is so adorable. Venti: *sings* Me: Oh my god, it's perfect for him. Qiqi: *sings* Me: I love it. She's so cute. Xiao: *sings* Me: OH MY GOD. XIAO PLEASE. MY HEART. SING TO ME SOME MORE. I LOVE YOU. I am an ultimate Xiao simp and am proud of it.
@@legion_queen_sav5400 its awesome but you gotta listen for yourself ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q7x746k_lM0.html < original va version ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DdajjH1FVL4.html
@@legion_queen_sav5400 There are also more videos of 'Xiao' (Xiao's VA) singing on his RU-vid channel! And also Chongyun because Xiao and Chongyun share the same Chinese VA! Here's the link to his RU-vid channel: ru-vid.com/show-UCQOBW8capoti3Cd93ogruLQ I recommend the song Yellow and also Renai Circulation [ beware yourself... tell me if you know who the high pitched person is! ;) ]
Dear Genshin community, thanks for everything. 2020 wasn't a pleasant year for me, and most of other people. but tbh, through this game, i had so much fun. I got connected to lost friends, got closer to other people, have something to geek over about and most of all, I had a genuinely good time. I just want to say I'm very proud to be part of this huge and friendly community. May everyone have a great day, week, year and life overall. and happy gaming!
even the voice actor are like "oh all my a-hole friend that never contact me for years started ring me up!" the game definitely contacted people... alot of the VA started streaming cause the community is so cool...
Rewatching this 3 years later when it pops up on my YT recommendations is crazy... I feel so nostalgic now, but this song has certainly been an important part in my early Genshin phase TT
This. Venti actually sounds like a bard god not a flirty little slacker drunk (even though he's that too) Xiao sounds like a powerful immortal being who destroys evil...not an emo highschool boy.
This. xiao's english va..i actually like the voice but the way they execute his lines is so wrong, he's not a tsundere, hot-headed and aggressive emo boy...he's slightly cold but quite reserved and passive, and very wise and very tired because of how long he's lived and also holds a lot of pain in him
@@Bella-po8vh I crack up whenever Xiao’s ENG lines come on, which is really distracting in the middle of getting chased by ruin hunters. I switched to the Chinese ver after hearing this song and I feel so much better... I really want to ask Mihoyo why Xiao’s lines are delivered like a chuuni tsun-tsun emo. No shade but...I expected so much for Xiao T___T I love his design and I really spent on him...only to be reduced to snorting whenever he goes “These memories...so dark...” XD instead of feeling heartbroken for his pain, I feel like asking him whether he’d like a flashlight.
@@Siiiiigh ikr i was snorting when i heard his english voice, especially when he was talking to ganyu. he sounds like a pissed off punk emo, nothing like an ancient, wise immortal. he sounded basically like sasuke but even more annoying somehow lmao.
@@isaacgray2222 yeah exactly. that’s why I said above that I actually really liked the va’s voice but definitely don’t agree with the execution of xiao’s lines lmao
In Chinese, Venti isn't referred to as a tone-deaf bard. I believe that's something the English localization team made up so that Paimon could have a nasty sounding nickname for Venti.
Hear me out. This song in original on normal TV at day. This song in original on Spotify. This song in the original at the malls and pools. This song in original in resteurants. Please, God. Hear me out.
Me: *having stress, overthinking, anxiety* This song: * exists* we don’t do that here Me: *happy noises* Edit: oml 600 likes! I HOPE EVERYONE IS HAVING A GOOD DAY
@@effel7 The Japanese VA’s are more famous probably and the voice acting scene in Japan is way more competitive than any other country so it isn’t surprising why people like it a lot. Especially since the Japanese VA’s often time host radios and appear on television events. I still think listening to a language you understand is always going to be more pleasant though, so I switch between Korean and Japanese. Chinese is the only language that is killing me right now

For non-Chinese speakers, the reason why they mentioned fish is not simply that Klee always want to blow up some fish, but "slacking off" is literally "catching fish using bare hands in muddy water" in Chinese idiom "浑水摸鱼”. So in Chinese the lyrics are connected but we see some lyrics are not related to the previous lines in English translation
Jesus, even tho a year has already passed, this song is still so beautiful. Especially Venti’s, sooo pretty and even prettier with the others voices aaaaa
This really blew up! When I first saw this video a week ago it was at 3k, now it’s at almost 1m views! As a Chinese, I’m really happy to see the CN VAs being recognized by their hard work, and I’m so happy to see others enjoy this song!
Klee : When it suddenly starts to rain heavily, that's me bombing away the dark clouds for you! Venti : When your hair is tousled by a gust of wind, that's me missing of you from afar! Klee : When there are too many obstacles ahead and you can't see the other shore, please keep this a secret I'll bomb flat for you! Qiqi : Even though I hate warm things, but I would like to hugyou. Can I? Xiao : if you are holding on to the events of the present and reluctant to move forward, I will quietiy keep a record of this pome. Venti : If you are tired of gravity and want to fly, I will tell the whole world's winds to blow your way! THIS SONG AND LYRICS ARE SOOOO CUTEEEE!!!
