Ayaka Winks at the Traveler (Cutscene) Warrior's Spirit | Genshin Impact 

i swear to god hoyoverse is toying with people like me who supports aether x ayaka

@@nekimi__ I know Hoyoverse loves to troll shippers but damn, Ayaka x Aether took another Nadia x Vlad's level. I guess this is the closest ship we can get

​@@karl4893 Fr, me personally I want these 2 to end up together.

@AM Lightspeedy Chongyun x Xiangling and Xingqiu x Hu Tao would be better because 4 of them were childhood friends

As a non Ayaka haver it made me decide to pull her

@@fishstickz8769 Have you gotten her?

That wink melted my heart. And broke me live on stream.

I am glad to have her. And I now regret not to play her event...

Nah, she meant his 'sword'

@Azervu please yes?

@@skybattler2624 why not both?

That make sense

Aether is a warrior, there is a Japanese belief that the warrior and his sword are one, so if Ayaka took possession of Aether's sword, he would thus take possession of him as well. She confessed to Aether.

Ayaya lore

*secretly*

It is actually

It obviously is!

It's always been

Omg me to

All of us

we might get to spar with her as the opponent on the sixth day

YES PLEASE!!! DMC intensifies

Same.

Why should they? They're racist, money grubbing pigs, right?

It probably helps that Ayaka is pretty much miHoYo's favorite Genshin character. 1. Shares her birthday with the worldwide release date of Genshin Impact (September 28th) 2. First limited 5* to receive an outfit 3. First limited 5* to receive an animated trailer other than their Character Teaser 4. They hired Hayami Saori, who's very famous for voicing "perfect Japanese" archetype characters, to voice Ayaka in the JP dub. I'm pretty sure she makes top 10 most popular female VAs easily. 5. I'm not sure if this is confirmed, but I read on a Reddit thread that she was the very first character that the Genshin devs designed in the beta, and that Xiao was the second. Coincidentally (or maybe not), Xiao is the second limited 5* to receive an animated trailer other than their Character Teaser.

@@themapplez don't forget the first 5 star to have extremely long banner

Not everyone want genshin to be turned into romance

@@themapplez Both EN VAs of Aether and Ayaka streaming on the event, 240 days banner (this one isn't even intended by Mihoyo lol) and the closest choice for partner to entering Itto's ghost event in a couple patches prior to this patch's pure servicing of indulgence, there's too many incidental factors plays into it

Am a Aether x Shenhe shipper. However, I don't mind if Mihoyo really wanted to ships Aether and Ayaka together because these two girls have their fate with him

@@karl4893 Ayaka was created first by the way and Aether was the first twins made third all over with Lisa begin in the medium going by user identity number

@@karl4893it doesn’t just go for aether you know. doubt they’d make any ship canon when you have so many diverse opinions throughout fandom, that’s why there’s fanservice for a lot of characters.

@@mellowedeye I know. However, these two girls are the closest thing to MC that we can get

They're bestiessss

Aye.. We eating good from her flirt+wink combo fellow Ayaya.

Doesn't change the fact that Aether sees her as a friend like everyone else

@@olyabutorina6869 to be honest it seems he like her

@@sanamrani7526 Out of the other interactions between the Traveller and characters, at least in the Eng localization, this definitely seems like a contender for having the most romantic coding.

@@olyabutorina6869 “it was cute” option??? Hello???

Kokomi Barbara and Ayaka

barbara was the first who wink to traveler second is kokomi

@@robertmelconde8151 Right, I forgot about her.

Didn't also miko winked too ?

No, it's not...

no! They are NOT!

@@sentience3033It’s already canon that Aether is the traveler of the story and Lumine is the antagonist. You can Google that.

@@olgabutorina4156 You can say all you want. But the director of the game was the one who specially made the Ayaka story quest, where Ayaka was dancing under the moonlight. Specifically design for Aether. It’s really obvious.

@@olgabutorina4156 Sssshhhh let the intrusive thoughts in

@Sentience Keep crying, the reason why they said that just because they want to pleased Lumine players. However, they didn't explain who is the REAL protagonist in original story. If there are no original protagonists, that means manga won't exist

they really do

No they don't

@@olyabutorina6869 it's fine bro. I actually ship Kazuha and Ayaka 😅🤣. Not that I mind the Aether and Ayaka ship. They may look cute but I'm not a BIG or HUGE fan of them if you know what I mean

@@Samuel_Loegan Kazuha can go with Yoimiya it's fine

@@karl4893 ah XD

i was thinking that too 🤣

I was like 🤨

Probably a big win for our Aether players, not only Aether x Ayaka shippers lol

Jesus dude...

@@karl4893 ye lol

​@@SpikeTheWolf Hi, your pfp is kinda cute. May I know the character's name?

@@eightyeight2379 original character by afrobull

well and I really can't see Traveler's interest in Ayaka

Traveler is like i don't know anything,you need my sword ,take this, in exchange give me ur sword😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

…dots

Aether the Rizzard of Oz

Also the Captain of Rizz

The rizz harbinger

Ayaka : I’m playing both sides so I always come out on top, (or in this case bottom I guess? )

@@dx_Rain_xb I had same pfp before , its kamijou touma from index right

@@dx_Rain_xb Huzzah a person of culture

And there engaged

No

@@olyabutorina6869 keep hating lmao

@@karl4893 everyone can have their fav ships, ok? Also Aether doesn't seem to like Ayaka more than friend, I don't understand why people ignore this fact.

@@olyabutorina6869 Why so serious over a ship?

FR

it’s really not

Nilou doesn't showed her loyal with him because as u can see, when Alhaitham appeared and told her the problems in Sumeru. Then, she admired him a lots and probably had a crushed on him. Also, don't trust too much on the teapot voices because it probably was fan service

@@karl4893 what? she said admired everyone in the group not just Alhaitham. Plus yeah the teapot is fanservice but it doesn't make it any less valid, it's still Nilou who's speaking y'all are honestly cherry picking just to make your ship more valid when it's not.

@Praveen neevarP Look like u forgot Nilou turned ultimate simp when Alhaitham told her the problems in Sumeru. Then, she said he was truly the bravest and passionate person in Sumeru she ever met

@@karl4893 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-aFQzXiGnzY4.html "You are truly the bravest and the most passionate people of Sumeru that I have seen" she clearly says people not person since she's referring to the whole group

She wants to steal his sword-

…

…

@@mellowedeye we already understand that you don't like this ship..

Nah Ayaka clearly wants Aether's sword if you know what I mean.

@@killerspreet7318 it's Valentine's day. Calm down, please respect womanhood sir.

@@DeptalJexus Valentines day is the perfect time XD

@@DeptalJexus you mfs have never seen an ounce of sunlight have u

Japan belief (Samurai era) to a warrior (Aether) and his sword being one. So yes, in one way, it could be a proposal, but that was a confession right there

no you people seriously just can’t analyze scenes for shit LOL

@@mellowedeye How did you interpret the scene?

Can Archangel breaks the rule about fall in love with someone lol?

@@karl4893 well, we don’t really know what Aether and Lumine are . So anything is possible. Lol

@@SuperHaoken They probably are kinda like angels because their own world was on heaven

He doesn't like her.

Aether: don't mind if I do. Teyvat has its own laws*

Seeing an innocent princess samurai reduced to a yandere is kinda hilariously sad ngl

Why nobody asks if Traveler likes Ayaka?

@@olyabutorina6869 if you ask the traveller if he likes her or hates her, he likes her.... romantically? I doubt it? he/she is one of those protagonists that makes manyyyy friends along the way but is still focused on reaching his/her end goal

Is the same dialog with Lumine, fine you want ship them but don't say is a fact. And yandere Ayaka is a meme thanks of that infamous eternal 2.6 banner of hers

@@FreakGeSt I don't ship them, but Ayaka's interest on the Traveler is getting more and more obvious with each passing day, to make a ship the Traveler has to like Ayaka as well and the Traveler still has a long journey ahead of him And yes Lumine has the same dialogue, but when a female character flirts with the Traveler it kinda suits Aether more, plus I'm not into yuri

This is one of the only cases where I've seen people so insistent on using the "they're just friends" perspective for a straight (depends on Traveller you're playing as, but Aether is generally seen as the canon PC anyway) ship. It's certainly interesting, especially since the undertones seem pretty apparent, to me at least.

​@@supremeoverlord0 I agree, but the word 'Canon' I'm in denial.

@@sentience3033 Gotcha. Haven't done desert quest yet. Was just going off of Hoyo's videos.

you people are so bad at analyzing ayaka it’s painful, and you miss actual intent, she very well could but her dialogue is her acting the part of the character she’s dressed as…

There actually engaged

free them

I agree. I'm glad choosing aether.

I suppose to think they are lesbian

@@aboutme7810 up to the eye of the beholder but feels like girl + friends to me not girlfriends

Me being a guy and chose Lumine, damn two cute girls going at it? Damn, what a bargain.

@@bobafrost7366 straight people hurt my head

I chose lumine, n trust I did not regret it

@Crowne Pri that's a good take....afterall hoyo did it as a reference to valentine's day....

Always has been 🐐

Its not canon, their just best friends. Lol

This is where the genshin fandom gets divided *Grabs popcorn*

Not canon but most likely implied that Ayaka has a crush on the traveler

@@sentience3033 I don't really care whether people ship a character or not, ain't that serious but I sure do like to watch the world burn themselves over meaningless arguments : D

hi! genuine question, how are the characters for aether and lumine different if they get pretty identical dialogue? Is there something in game that makes the clear hint different per chosen traveler?

@@thisenable the dialogue is the same but the context is different. Gacha games tend to be designed like this, especially with 2 protagonist with different gender, so that each mc will get their different context even tho the dialogue is the same.

i would love to live in your state of delusion, because although these characters could have romantic feelings and some ships do work better for a certain mc it’s the same for both, if anything they have better interactions with ayaka-lumine xiao-aether etc; the twins are different but the characters you mentioned aren’t made to be for just one..

@@thisenablefor some they have a difference in dialogue but what op is on about… they’re going on about nothing LOL the twins have a difference in personality but all interactions are the same or some are better than what they’re saying idk find it a bit weird

@@marcel9371but that could be said for either twin for any ship be serious

To be honest, I don't know what happens if Paimon doesn't interrupt them

Damm bruh 😂😂 seeing this comment I choked to death while drinking my juice

which sword hilt? 🤨

ayo

That's why Aether has to take care of his "sword" for them to productively enjoy their "sparring" sessions for multiple rounds.
