Aionios Moments Analysis | Xenoblade Chronicles 3 Artbook Review & Lore Explaination 

"characters were transformed into objects" Finally, lifesaver Ryen

Xenoblade Chronicles 4 is going to be a wild ride!

Hearing Takahashi say things like "I can't answer that YET" is so exciting

I find it funny that “Seven” was the spoiler name we used back in the day when the Xenoblade 1 twist was more obscured to those playing for the first time. Now it turns out Seven is Lucky, and I mean her surviving XC1 was very Lucky, huh.

I had a theory that Fiora still having Meyneth's memories meaning having a connection to The Monado/Ontos would be the reason she's one of the first people to help blueprint origin, but I'd never imagine that plot point would be used for a different reason...

Shulk: Fiora, you're a Lucky Seven Fiora: Shuuuuuuu-*turns into Lucky Seven*

They give a Nopon a deep voice and all of a sudden we forget they're a bunch of liars. Damn Nopon

Man, his hint at Origin being further explored in the next games made me so happy, mostly because i'm happy that XC4 and the next games won't completely abandon the previous games storylines like a lot of people thought, alternatively this can also hint at a possible Xenoblade Chronicles Warrior game about the battle between Shulk and Rex against Alpha (basically a prequel to Future Redeemed) which would also be cool but considering Koei's history of making their Warriors games non canon and take too many liberties(AoC and Three Hopes for example) i'd be very skeptical unless they went for something like Persona 5 Strikers but being actually canon and written by Takahashi himself.

I think it is more likely that Shulk and Rex only had strong enough “desire” to manifest themselves via their admin powers at the point where Alpha “Alvis/Ontos” made a personal, world-threatening appearance. Prior to that, I don’t doubt they tried to influence things subtly, but were still being pushed back by Z’s usurpation.

What a time to be alive Xenoblade, GOT and Elden Ring lore are my favorite type of videos thank you

Thanks Lugalbanda the wanderer king from the hit game Xenoblade Chronicles X for translating this interview

I like that "SEVEN" is canon now

9:33 if we take battle skills literally, tora's family implemented nanomachines in poppi QTpi, as well as Ino since they both have the skill "nanomachine repair"

I really hope whatever he does next has that ambition, darkness and depth of xenogears. Not that he ever strayed too far from those things though

The end of an era, now we'll wait... until next time Don't take too long, Cause everything you've said You'll find it there...............

Really glad to see you’re uploading again, I missed your videos

14:53 I bet Z revived Panacea and Linka at the same time as he did Shulk and Rex. They started as 7-year-olds and became what we unfortunately don’t play as. Z knew Shulk and Rex needed emotional support to survive but wanted to keep their other loved ones in Origin/Origin shards just to fuck with them

thank you lugal

Omg thanks Lumgie.

19:53 I bet they’re porting Saga and Gears to the Switch

Well, we still don't know what makes Noah and Mio so special and what happened to Mythra's kid. In my opinion, the children of Pyra and Mythra were fused by origin, because they are technically both Pneuma and origin saw no difference. That could explain why Glimmer looks like Pyra, but is talking like Mythra. About Noah and Mio: After finishing Future Redeemed, I believed that Mio is so special because of heir parents: Rex has a "key" or "heart" for origin and Nia is a flesh eater. Her core crystal could be the "light", that allowed her to communicate with Melia. That combination could be the reason, why Mio was always reborn. Unfortunately I have no idea, what is going on with Noah. First I thought, he might be related to the high entia and the telethia gene / cells of Zanza's body. But that could not be the case, because Noah has no short wings, like other halfbreeds...

This is pretty cool

4:15 he doesn’t say Logos is in the sword, but Malos specifically. Which is even weirder

Hear me out Xenoblade warriors canon lore exposition

Hey ! We already saw the black fog in Alrest ! The other half of Klaus's body is made of black fog ! And there is blue or purple in it, (sorry , I'm colorblind 😅) the colors that represents Bionis world ! And in the black fog of Wenoblade DE there are red or orange/yellow colors ! Gosh, it's crazy to think that Takahashi already imagined all that... It seems that when the black fog appear in one world, it's with the color of the other world in it... Well, great video ! Can't whait to see Xenoblade 4 Thanks from France ! 🇨🇵

Hearing all that talk about the fog king made me think… if it was happening in Rex’s world at the same time and what was being projected instead of infernal guldo? Maybe a Telethia?

They kept hearing people call xenoblade 2 "Waifublade chronicales" and went "OH YOU WANT ALL THE WIVES AS THE XENOBLADE? THEN FINE, HAVE IT YOUR WAY"

I can finally go back to my post x2 theory that elma is galea.

Man, now I need Xenoblade 4.

My favourite xeno tuber is back 🔥

Since we're a couple years away from the 10 year anniversary of XC2, do you think we'll get a definitive edition and an epilogue post game like they did with the original Xenoblade Chronicles game. It might clear up on the whereabouts of Malos, seeing a Telethia fog beast king, and might even reveal the identity of Mythra's child as well (although we might not know if this epilogue episode also begins at the same time as Future Connects). Also regarding the Liberators situation, i was under the assumption that many of them happen to materialize to Aoinis much later in time out of per coincidence. I saw a theory on reddit that they just arrived on a later time in Aoinis as it explain why neither Rex and Shulk never made contact with the City until its destruction.

Excuse my English, but I need someone's help. Does anyone know where you can buy this book in Japan? A friend traveled and I wanted to take advantage of asking him to buy it for me. Thanks for the help

I know this is not an April fools joke but at first, I was a little hesitant just because of what day it was and how insane some of the confirmations were.

for logos being alive its still a stretch but I assume its either memories of Agnians and or somehow Ion lives somewhere in space sense even though we see the crystal shatter its still in Ion and Its not like a aigis cant comeback after the crystal is drained and or shattered seeing as pnuema did it numerus times though thats just a theory a game theory I will now escort myself to the exit edit: you then said some of what I said and fell over and died

please i would do anything to get a xenowarriors game, it feels like it would be the perfect moment for it

if moebius are the collective conscious and Z hates the world. that means there are gonna be some form of criminals or terrorists in either keves or agnus which melia or nia have to take down

Only question I really had was how logos was able to return, but when you consider pneuma manages data of all blades that are relayed back to her, I don’t think it’s a stretch that Malos’s soul exist in her core. Also about origin: Origin metal is likely based off of the same material as the monado, considering Origin was based on the Ontos core architecture. Which is very specific wording which I think explains why origin metal is able to withstand annihilation. Also it’s not unenviable to think that origin would be constructed in about 20 years or so, considering the insane amount of technology they have at their disposal

Does this community meet somewhere outside of YT and /v/?

LFG!!!!!

16:29 Why do fog beasts show up in Future Redeemed, but not Xenoblade 3 main story? The black fog is still present, so why not fog beasts. Also, why does the black fog show up in Aionios? Shouldn't Origin not manifest the black fog?

A's Monado design spoiled me and seeing a similar look for Pneuma's sword makes me wish they will put it in the next game.

I need whatever Takahashi is smoking

20:12 Defeat the point? What is he talking about? The reason why we're asking is that we want to _know_ the point to begin with. I understand if these questions will/may be answered later in the future, and I accept that, but just tell us that it's not a question you can answer at this time instead of "knowing right now will partially defeat the point of XB3's story". I think *you're* just saying that, JB. The article, at least from what is shown here, doesn't say that.

What if Malos was or became the black knight or original ares pilot

With all Nopon being immortal in Aionios, Riku saying he's a common variety Nopon is the one thing he didn't lie about!

18:53 lol “for now”? I really hope people listen to the director when he says it’s not Galea

Honnestly, this whole interview feel kinda like Takahashi didnt really wanted to do XC3 at first and is instead very much concerned about the next step in the serie

If Fiora is Lucky Seven, then who is Nikol's mom?

But what did Noah name lucky 7

Just common variety liarpon. Nothing more. 😎

Hey JB. As a fellow content creator, I hope you like my exploration into JP translation on the lore I've released similar to you. Great video as always

16:03 when they stated. When THEY stated!

His point about Moebius was so great and i've been saying this for a long time, about how i actually like them a lot and find their concept way more endearing than the previous main villains, of course, i still think that there is way too many of them and that Z deserved more screen-time but still, them being a representation of some sort of goverment that have selfish and vain reasons to cause suffering and despair unto others and with then being a reflex of the dark side from humanity's collective unconscious was always something way more interesting than "JRPG Evil God n° 72783839" that needed a retcon to his own story in the second game to became way better and more unique and Malos which while he is charismatic honestly i never found him that interesting, he was just funny most of the time and i cared way more about Jin. I also see Z being a villain that does nothing as a critic to how the leaders behind the system in real life wage wars while hiding behind propaganda, soldiers and etc. It's a common say that the ones that cause war, rarely give their own face on the battlefield and most of the time it's all about self interest at the expense of others lives and in that aspect, i find Z and Moebius genius specially afther the confirmation that this was truly their intention.

Good video jb however xenosaga is canon

Am I the only one who thinks Takahashi is just winging it? Why can't he just answer the questions? I think they just add to the story as they go...

Damn, Xenoblade 3 was such a poorly told narrative. Just imagine if a fraction of all that useless NPC dialogue were repurposed into explaining this stuff in game. Revealing this years after release is pointless. Also, it's irresponsible for Takahashi to avoid explaining the game he already made in anticipation of a game that is supposed to come out eventually.

So you're telling me moebius represents capitalism? Thats so based my boy Takahashi be reading Marx out here

this video isn’t long enough

I’ve been saying this since FR came out and I’m gonna keep saying it until we get an official an official answer: Pyra and Mythra are not inside Noah’s seath, it simply does not make sense based on what is shown and said in the game. If Pyra and Mythra are in Noah’s seath it means that Matthew or one his descendants gave the Gauntlets to Riku years after FR ending, when Riku was infiltrated in the Keves colonies and the house Vandham was away from the City, and then Riku used to Gauntlets to craft Noah’s seath, but the game never even implies that the Gauntlets were given to someone after FR, and it explicitly says that Riku uses Noah’s base sword to create a seath suited to hide Lucky Seven. I think that if Matthew really gave his Gauntlets to Riku or one of his descendants that then gave them to Riku, the game would have had at least a hint about it, but there are no such hints, and there’s also the fact that Noah’s seath doesn’t show to have powers even remotely similar to those we saw coming from Matthew’s Gauntlets (like giving people Ouroboros powers without the Ouroboros stone), in fact it doesn’t even show to have special powers in the first place, apart from being able to shapeshift into a gauntlet when Lucky Seven is drawn out which seems more like a convenient thing that Riku added than an actual power that comes from the seath. At this point, knowing that Takahashi said that Noah throws Lucky Seven in the sea at the end of the game as a way to return it to Origin, the most logical conclusion I can think of is that at some point Matthew did the same with the Gauntlets, returning Pyra and Mythra to Origin. To me, this whole “Pyra and Mythra are Noah’s seath” theory seems more like a way for the community to gaslight itself and it’s practically based on non-evidence used to support it, like the fact that Noah’s seath is red and Matthew’s Gauntlets are red (Noah’s base sword is red and Riku used it to create the seath), and now even the fact that a scrapped concept of the Sword of Origin looks similar to Pneuma’s sword; like, how can a concept that wasn’t even meant to be in the final game prove that Pyra and Mythra are in Noah’s seath? If one day Takahashi confirms that they are in Noah’s seath, it will feel weird but I’ll have no problems accepting it, but as of right now, in my opinion there’s no logical evidence that supports this theory.

If all the mobius characters where suppose to be completely unsympathetic then why give characters like Joran, Shania and especially N sob stories and even more insulting make the party easily forgive N when he has done nothing but be smug/ whiny asshole to everyone because “he’s Noah” ?

What makes me sad the most is that Xenoblade games keep flopping in terms of sales. People hate this game just because it's Nintendo exclusive, and they want it to be on ps so that the graphics can be modern like all ps games.
