What makes me love Genshin is how attentive they are to details in the lore. For examples; the demos shown in the video. Some details are tied to their character or the role of the character. A detail I noticed from Kokomi's is how it does not have any japanese influence due to her being a part of the Sangonomiya Clan who was brought onto the surface by Orabashi from the depths under the ocean floor of Ekanomiya.
Not only are they attentive to details in lore, they’re also v attentive in game too like ex if you’re in the chasm, any character that’s idle will speak w a slight echo. Also when you walk through sand, you would leave behind footprint. They’re very minimal but I love it
There's a lot of small details in character trailers. Kazuha's more modern vibe could symbolize him removing himself from eternity (tradition because he left his clan) Kokomi's trailer doesnt have any japanese influence because she's from enkanomiya Actually thats the only one i have noticed soo
The music in Albedo's demo is electronic, artificial, just like Albedo himself, as an artificial human. In the beginning of Raiden Shogun's character demo, we see her in the Plane of Euthymia, but when it zooms out, the camera comes out of the sword, with Ei still reflected in its blade. Blatant foreshadowing that she placed her consciousness inside the sword. The shot of her standing back-to-back with an illusion of herself could also reference the existence of her and the Shogun puppet. Apparently, Zhongli's demo makes heavy use of an ancient traditional Chinese instrument, which references Zhongli being Rex Lapis, an ancient god who is ingrained in Liyue's traditions.
Theres a comment I passed by about Ganyu's character demo and It's something poetic in a Chinese context about Dream in a dream which happened in Ganyu's Trailer, I forgot a lot of the things they talked about but that what I remember hehe. Ayaka's trailer intro heavily inspired by old Japanese Films. (Also they removed the background and only her and the flowers remain) If you also haven't noticed yet, you can also see Jean doing her burst in Klee's burst walk around monstadt ehe The cicin mage in Venti's trailer had an older clothing design which is not present in the game anymore ALSO(omg) Venti and Raiden's musics are both on the fast side, kinda emulating the wind and lightning respectively, while Zhongli's on the slower side, Hiphop(?) And Traditional Chinese fused to represent him being an archon and living as a Human in the present. ALSO, most of Raiden's trailer theme is in Minor but had one Major key played in a brief moment. Could be referencing the amount of remorse she has gotten but also KIND OF foreshadowing what's to come for her in the Major key part.
I love his demo. The inspiration in the visuals (and music a little bit, at least in the combining hip hop with samurai stuff) seems to me to come from the opening of Samurai Champloo. Look it up, it's a really rad anime opening and a good show too
When i was very new to the game around last summer, i spent all the time i had and was able to get kazuha in 7 days. I didn’t even know the 50/50 existed and was so happy when i got him, and thought that guaranteed pity was at 75 😭😭 good genshin times, kazuhas been in my party as the dps ever since
I never expected his theme to be about speed and speed with black and white calligraphy due to his character setting about being calm truly a masterpiece I bet Scara's theme will be similar to this sense
There is a frame where he stands like a black silhouette with orange background and in my mind this a clear reference to Samurai Champloo opening and I LOVE IT
I cannot wait for his rerun. I have venti , but his darn it I cannot get over his utility 😩😩 it was insane being able to use em in the mini abyss in the story quest. I wanted to hold out for Dendro but AJDNDKDND. I really gotta start farming
I'm pretty sure Kazuha's theme is the only one with words in the background! (Even if it's slight- also I pretty sure it's saying word word or something idk dude poetry and stuff) :,)
I remember when i first listened i thought it was so weird (it was new combo for me ok?) yet so cool! I have a study playist 10 h long and this one pos up a few times per week so... I basically know almost every demo and teaser ost from The Stellar Moments volumes. I was so hyped whe Vol. 2's release was announced!!
I learning music so ofc i noticed it the first time i watched the demo lol I love how it gives the song some kind of hip hop/ beatbox vibe but with traditional instruments and music
Pov of the video: u watched kazuha's demo a million more times coz max of u are waiting for his rerun in the agony of anticipation. Also y'all: *OFCOURSE BRUH*
i have a keen listening when it comes to musics or songs (probably because of my high quality headset), and i noticed that quite immediately while watching his trailer. i just thought it was cool 😃
I already know this it was the past of the song and i really liked it didn't think people noticed this . I have listened to this music many times so i noticed this very quickly cause i mostly care about the music in every song so i kinda noticed it very quickly
I love Kazuha so much and I'm happy that I got him last year bc I spend all my primogems to get him but didn't hit my 50/50 and I was playing his character demo forever until I roll for single roll and got him and I screamed out of happiness 💚 Stan Anemo boys 😌
Someone mentioned in the orignal trailer's comment section that this trailer is inspired by an old OP of a sumurai anime. I forgot the name. It too had similar setting as this trailer.
samurai and ninja movies became increasingly popular in the 80s and 90s, and so did rap. that’s probably also the reason why there’s a scene that was noir with cinematic borders lmao
I also hear “we’re gonna get ‘em” or something like that Also, same here, I’ve been wondering why no one talks about Kazuha’s rap song, the one that ended Eminem’s career
yeah i observed it one day when i was doing schoolwork and listening to the soundtracks and i was like "wth is that?" i was not listening to official soundtrack so i thought maybe the one who had made it added it in. then i realized it was there in the trailer. i like it though it sound cool
watched his trailer so many times (because i love my anemo boys) , i heard the bg music but i couldn't tell what it was so i ignored it and focused what was in front of us , kazuha HEHEHE
