From this mission I believe that she can read us like a book

Kafka happen to stay smiling after being lied and disliked is honestly sad ngl 😭

You guys noticed that it doesn't matter if you choose truth or lie, the expressions are like she already knows you. but if you disobey is the one that really surprises her, she is like omg Trailblazar you got me with that one.

Kafka is really a girl who is very good at reading people, whether you are telling the truth or lying, she will find out.

Also, if you noticed, all Kafka questions are related to how we felt about her. While we can ask about a lot of things not only related to Kafka. It proves that our mommy rly care about us. She'd been protecting us, teaching us, guide us and when we forgot about those and ended up meet her from different sides, if we hated her just because of that, ofc She'd feel hurted.

Kafka is actually a "good" mother. While she's a "bad guy" and did an immense amount of bad things, she did a lot for you. She trust you deeply, care for you, lie for you (when she says to Yanqing that she's mind controlling you), raised you. Even Blade acknowledge that fact, which is saying a lot. Basically, Kafka's our mom, Blade is our edgy uncle, SW is our sis.

The EN version of 5:06 actually made me jump a little- For context: I decided to break the rules of the game (was initially going to play fair, but then I remembered that the MC's default ultimate voiceline is literally *"Rules...are made to be broken"* and went "sure, F it" lmao) and was instantly greeted with a spine-chilling "nuh-uh..." from Kafka, like the audio quality of that one line was actually different. Sounded more 4D(?) Lost 3% of my soul that day

Decided to lie that I dislike her, glad to know she reacts differently and understood it was a lie.

I wonder how many people chose to cheat just to tell the truth twice about how much they like her

I loved how she blushed after we say that we wanted to see her again (truth)

Rules are made to be broken. I answered both truthfully, "I like you" and "I want to see you again", and her reaction was priceless because she understood I will break the rules for her.

Kafka is a very interesting character, and her morality seems very gray. It sounds like she has been taking hit jobs to kill anyone Elio requests (prob innocents too based on how severe blade made it sound) for a future where she gains fear. At the same time, the Trailblazer was raised by her in a sense and I believe she has formed a strong attachment to them. Maybe the first real attachment of love she has ever had. Love is a very strong emotion, and one closely linked to fear because we of course greatly fear losing that which we love. In this sense, I can see how the Trailblazer is meant to change her as a person. To me, it feels more like a motherly love than a romantic love, but as we know it’s very hard to read Kafka so who knows. She probably doesn’t fully understand love yet either, since it has some relation to fear. I just think their relationship is more akin to a parent and child since Kafka raised them.

Here a thing. Most human sadness is formed because of fear. The fear that someone you loved is gone, the fear that they might leaving you, the fear that you cant do anything about it and etc. And since kafka doesnt know what is fear thats mean if you manage to make kafka actually feel genuinely sad. is a same equivalent of making a normal person that have fear crying out loud and having a mental breakdown...

I love this character and how our relationship is developing. I hope that this will continue (and finally we realized that she is not our mother)

From the expression, she's like reading us, and from truth or lie, all negatives are actually hurting her emotionally. To me, even if we could just take, and tell the guards, or just decline her offer, i could say, she was desperate enough to call us. This quest really did had a choices. I choose to help her, cuz why not? At least i got the answers from Kafka. Those were my choices: 1) (Truth) 0:39 2) (Obey the rules - Lie) I don't want to see her. Love or hate Kafka, it's not up to us to decide. All i know, she was born on a planet, where all people have no such thing as fear, and Kafka is no exeption. So, she wants to feel fear. And when she said that truth about "How are we connected", and Kafka said that both will change each other. Her desire to finally feel the "Fear", is actually important. But fear doesn't affected by happiness, or sadness. Like i said, truth or lie, she's going to feel emotionally hurt a bit for hearing negative answers. This is the only quest that had some choices, and it was a surprise for me.

She's a criminal but one thing's for sure, she takes care of her own. She didn't abandon Blade and seemed to genuinely care for him, and (spoilers for Silver Wolf story quest) . . . Seemed to care about SW's feelings after she lost all her game data. In fact, it felt like a big sister little sister interaction. It was really sweet imo. I don't think Kafka will ever be able to hurt us, at least not without hurting herself in the process.

kafka actually sees through. her face when you lied to like her....is really sad :*(

from her expression, this game gonna tell us that your mom still loving you

Hoyo really outdid themselves with her character, I usually really don't like antagonistic/emo characters like Scara before his redemption arc for example or Kafka before this quest But through this dialogues alone they managed to make me feel sorry for her and feel empathy to her as a 'mother' to us and as a normal mother she definitely still wants us to like her and want to meet her again, that's why I broke the rules and told her two truths instead (I kinda like her and I want to see her again) and I didn't regret a single thing

Is blade just chilling there watching this soap opera

Her sad chuckle when you lie about liking her breaks my heart. 😭

The most interesting reactions she shows us are when we choose "I don't care about you" (1:34), whether we lie or tell the truth it's the only response where she looks angry rather than happy or disappointed. As if she can understand if we like or dislike her but not if we feel... nothing.

I like how she responded the "(LIE) I don't care about you" (which translated to " i DO care about you" is surprised smiling gasp, i swear i almost can see her blushing lol, kinda sweet.

All the talk about her wanting to feel fear, and how her and the trailblazer are each other's destiny etc. It honestly feels like a death flag T.T. Can't help but imagine Kafka finally feeling a fear of losing the trailblazer and becomes Himeko 2.0.

Didn't Blade mention something along the lines of Kafka looking out for us and pulling strings to keep us alive when we finish the quest? I'm glad i picked all the nice options XD

3:10 NOOOOO IT HURTSSSS

The shock on her face when we say we don't want to see her again (Break the rules) is so sad ;_;

Every time we choose the option just below the *(truth) I like you* and *(lie) I hate you.* She gives us this amused smile like, "Oh my sweet summer child, what a tsundere you are. Can't even fully admit your feelings~" Which is kinda embarrassing, getting caught like that IRL. . . Otherwise, if we did select the top most option, she just gives us this comforting acknowledgment.

Blade did tell us that we have spent a long long time along side her. Its no wonder that she can read us like a book. Its fuckin Dienslief all over again or is it Monica

I wanted to see her again, but i already told the truth the first time, so i thought of cheating and yelled "RULES ARE MADE TO BE BROKENNN"

(Break the rules) *Kafka boss music plays*

So she totally knows I like her and want to see her again, nice. Her backstory was also rather interesting.

I think Kafka loves the main character and that's fine. Finally, Stelle (or another hero) has a sweetheart and thank the gods that she is not a mom

My heart broke everytime I saw Kafka sad face in this video. I'm glad I make her happy with my choices.

I love that in this game the dialogue actually has an effect. It makes me feel more invested, makes my choices feel more significant. Kafka is a character that really enforces that principle

The way she looked down after tb lying to her about liking her broke my heart😭😭

Meanwhile I happen to be keep it vaguely at first answer and "Rule are meant to be broken!!" the second.

RULES ARE MADE TO BE BROKEN!!

I can feel her sad and feel betrayed by a little giggle when we tell a lie if we like her

4:37 I mean RULES A MADE TO BE BROKEN

shes like my mom detects everytime i lie only difference is she doesn’t give me a whooping

Thank you for this... Now I know what to do and what to respond

mad respect to her for respecting if you don't like her even if you're clearly heartbroken

Damn i hated kafka at first but now things have changed

Kafka is like one of my Aunts, she was ruthless with my mom and cousins when they were younger but she always was nice and protector with me as a kid until today...

I COULD NEVER SHE JUST KEEPS SMILING 😭

im so sad i choose not meeting her and obeying the rules. got confused with her wording and her expression destroys. knowing that she took mc as her own. i really want to replay this story quest again :(

seeing as to how Shizuka Ito also voices Wakana Sumeragi (your literal mom) from Scarlet Nexus, meeting and talking with Kafka felt very familiar, not to mention how the male MC (Yuito) from SN also shares the same seiyuu (Junya Enoki) as Caelus (male Trailblazer)

Awww I love emotions of Kafka so much:3😍❤️

The best character of the game is in love with us! Great

Just seeing blade in the back just chilling sets me off lmao

a good mom always knows when her daughter lies 🥺

I love interactions like these in games

You missed one on the very last part because each choice of dialogue have different reaction, so if you lied in the first answer, and you tell the truth in the second one with “I want to see you again”, she will legit blush 😂 the reddest of blush and the happiest of chuckle, it’s so cute ngl

При выборе руководствовался тем, что правила созданы для того, чтобы их нарушать

Kafka at the start of the game already tell us not to regret the choices we make in the game, so a lots of choices we make will affect whether we can get certain quests & items in the future. so noone can complete all quests and get all items on 1 run of the game. in future, if you have enough friends that play the games, you be surprised on what they have and have not when compared to yours.

*oh my god she can read us like a book* i just noticed her facial expressions, she can tell between your lie and your truth *AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA*

I hope those choices won't have consequences on the future because i accidently chosen the option i didn't wanted at the second question

omg... she is best mother ever.... i wanna cry 😭😭😭😭

Oh my god, my heart broke when you choose "I hate you as the truth"😭

i chose (truth) i like you and "i dont want to see kafka again" and immediately regretted it after the 2nd dialogue option appeared

I don't know if she's good at reading people or not, I just think she already knows the answers because Elio told her what we would say.

she can read our mind, i cannot argument that

I chose to tell the truth both times because rules are made to be broken.

Blade in the back: Why are we till here... just to suffer?...

[Lie] "I don't care about you" is probably the smoothest

How… just how can you make her so sad😭

Her reaction when I told her I want to see her again. I be like: "She knows, she knows"

When she's sad after being disliked my heart hurts

If she already underrands our thought process.... then it doesnt matter what we answer she already knows what we are thinking and how we chose to answer and what that answer implies.

4:06 cutest god damn smile I swear to god, and I'm glad I got to see it myself too

Funny how she can read us and that we can read her as well. Clearly the writing and design team knew what they were doing. They could have make it impossible for us to tell if she was lying or not (other than finding evidence - or using that special question "2+2=4") but they didnt.

She ended up saying "I can't understand you" when i made my choices l.

0:33 my heart sanked :(

When we say (truth) "i dislike you" my heart stabbed

this quest gave me feelings

Broo hurt her feelings so bad he needed to make ton accounts

i'm gonna cry (っ˘̩╭╮˘̩)っ mommy Kafka is the best

oh, so it wasnt just me when i thought she looked kinda sad when i said i disliked her and didnt wanna see her again

Blade just there in the background lmao

she knows when we are telling a lie and thats not fair

when Kafka said :0 i really felt that

In the end she was like 😳

the title of the vid kinda surprised me because when i did her story quest she said something along the lines of 'its surprising that i cant read you' after answering both her questions and following the rules of the game, not sure if this dialogue was specific to the choices i picked or not

To hear you say “I hate you” and to feel that it’s true cut her deep…

I answered both in honest, *Rules are meant to be broken* I also think that she didnt follow the rules aswell, What makes me believe that is the line in the Silverwolf event were SW and kafka have something in good common And that is breaking the rules

this feels more like Oberon Simulator: how to Lie Like Vortigern

i think you miss the option "disobey the rules and tell her you want to see her again"

*Kafka will remember that*

50 shades of "mhn"

My Trailblazer: Monsters? No monsters? (Indifference) Ok...

This alone is making me get back to the game roll on her

I followed the rules and said “I don’t want to see you again” and “I like you a lot” First being lie, and second being truth.

Why is not "I love you." an option, I am throughly dissapointed

"Rules are meant to be broken"

I really was happy with the choices i made :)\ 1) Lie) I dislike you 2) Truth) I want to see you again. I dont have the willpower to say i dislike her when we were saved by her and she literally is our past colleague .

Just noticed something really interesting. In almost every single response, she is either *happy or sad* , this is because she is always able to tell whether you're telling the truth or lying. *HOWEVER* , there are 2 scenarios where she acts *surprised* instead. 1) If you lie about not caring about her, because she then can't work out whether you like her or dislike her. I chose to leave the quest so I never saw any of this , but it's cool to see that there's a way to outsmart someone who can tell whether you're telling the truth or not. 2) If you DON'T obey the rules of the game at the end. It doesn't matter what your response is, she's just surprised you cheated

Blade in the background....

I didn't get this, I pass the fast way to say no 🤣🤣
