his theme is so hip hop inspired, very different from his more traditional, poetic samurai self- quite interesting. is it because of the poetry? how rap is a form of poetry? or is it the appreciation of old japanese hip hop?
This is probably being made because kazuha is a samurai and a ronin that run from inazuma, and the hip-hop part show the ronin side from kazuha that he's free and not lock to one place, this is just my guess
That's a very valid question! This is an explanation I found on Bilibili- I only translated it to the best of my ability (with some help from Google): This PV has two elements of homage: one is the rewind and the hip-hop, these reference Watanabe Shinichirō's Samurai Chanpurū (or Samurai Champloo). Samurai Chanpurū does not stick to the style of traditional Japanese films, and rather uses flowing fighting scenes paired with hip-hop style music. Also, whenever the sound of the DJ is heard the video will repeatedly rewind, creating a unique style. Second is the black-and-white color scheme, this I believe many people know already, this pays homage to Akira Kurosawa's swordfighting films.
gawd the trailer was so good. Dunno if its just me thinking that it's one of the best up there with hu taos albedos and xiaos. (zhongli's is in a league of its own atp but I'm putting kazuhas trailer 2nd place behind him because of the old Japanese samurai movie themes)
they just salty cause they can't have all the characters, that's why they talk trash to characters they cant afford to comfort themselves. What a toxic mindset
Kazuhas theme is a mix of peaceful and yet powerful. In my opinion, kazuha wants revenge for his old friend thus he helped the resistance. in simple words, Kaedehara Kazuha wants peace and revenge at the same time. The vision Anemo also suits him. he is sometimes calm and peaceful and yet he can be strong and devastating. (English is not my first language but I hope you understand what I wanted to say)
I wouldn't say wanting revenge. He did have a moment thinking if it's revenge or not, but in the end it isn't. Tomo was defeated by Kujuo Sara without any tricks/fair and square and Raiden delivered the final blow. It's just that. Kazuha accepted it since it was an honorable death. Of course, it's not bad or out of place feeling anger or wanting revenge but his culture says otherwise. It's like in the Last Samurai film where he is both Katsumoto and the widow of the red samurai killed by Tom Cruise. If you ever need proof, listen to his view of the Raiden Shogun. He "got over it" or doesn't hate her when she delivered the killing blow but he dislikes the vision hunt decree. He would hate someone or you, if they interfered with Tomo's execution and would commit seppuku to restore their honor. Of course this is too much for MHY with the CCP behind them but not showing it would be ridiculing the old culture of Japan and even if we think it's some twisted morality/honor in today's standards.
Im pretty sure his theme song is made to represent the two conflicting sides of his personality, the song consists of a mix of tradicional japanese music and a modern pop song, the tradicional japanese music represents his love for inazuma (japan) and for its traditions and the modern song is ment to represent his revolucionary side where even though he respects inazuman traditions he questions the authority of the shogun, one of the founding beliefs of the nation.
You are one of the only people I know who take the cultural identities to heart. I love how you take your time with the themes and especially with the chapter trailer, well done.
That fact that I have beidou will increase my chance of getting Kazuha XD And I have guaranteed pity for him so Kazuha will not escape >:3 Update: Kazuha came home :D I manifest Kazuha luck for all who want him
@@brotagonist7599 sadly no. At least not yet. I haven’t got a 5 star recently in his banner but at least I know that when a 5 star comes it will be him :>
@@TsukiyoLivi you said you had guaranteed pity for kazuha, but you didn't get him as you write that reply. Wouldn't it contradict your original comment? (My english sucks, i know)
@@wafflies8790 I need to rephrase that. I will have guaranteed Pity for him once I hit the 90 wish mark I lost the 50/50 on a banner before kazuha’s so next five star is him for sure
@@asoret bruhhhh i made this before the fatui reveals Kazuha is just always cursed to always be overshadowed by new region hype or something else Same thing with klee
I was wishing for Kazuha the other day bcs I had a guranteed win after losing in Itto's banne rerun and played this music, wrote Kazuha name 100 times on a piece of paper, got his keychains(x8), pvc card and after wishing 30 times, at 77/78/79 pity i got him WOHOO YAHO!!!
Before Mihoyo actually releases disc 2, I seriously thought ur songs were actually played on their demo cuz of the description and the similarity of your songs and the actual songs. You actually got us there.
I think Kazuha's theme is amazing!! Personally, I have some kind of pleasant feeling while listening to it. such interesting music and melody in general..
Sameee, of all the banners I purposefully chose to skip his is the one that hurts the most! Especially since inazuma story has finished now and he’s been shown off more ;w;
