My Reaction to Arlecchino's Voice Lines about Harbingers 

Capitano: Exist Every single character: *“That’s why he’s the MVP, that’s why he’s the GOAT”*

"I got absolutely bodied by Arlecchino, which was awesome, I cried a lot." - "MurderofBirds" Arnold

The Jester invites his harbingers to a banquet, a feast. And so too does MurderofBirds invite his audience to a feast because this lore video is TWO HOURS LONG

Dainsleif casually mentioning the crimson moon bloodline being etched in Arlecchino's life is so funny as if its just a normal day for him

Arlecchino's line on the winter night's lazzo for Rosaline now makes sense. She used to visit the kids of the house of the heart 😢

If Father Arlecchino respects The Captain, SO SHOULD WE!

The amount of Capitano glazing from this man (just like me frfr) makes him a perfect fit for r/FatuiHQ

Arnold literally in a lot of me watching CC's being the ONLY ONE I remember being fucking SPOT ON with Childe and the Liyue Archon Quest proves just how much he's the only CC I am willing to believe because holy shit I shouted THANK YOU FINALLY SOMEONE WHO READS R E A D S, it was so refreshing to finally hear that come out of someone.

ayo the childe defense by showing off… checks note, reading comprehension ability xD you’re so goated for that

So it's confirmed that she doesn't remember Scara. Make sense given her bloodline is from Khaenri'ah which means just like Dainslief, she too is effected by Irminsul tampering. It's cool to see another Harbinger admiring Capitano's strength, that makes her the 3rd, it really makes you wonder what Capitano has in store for us in Natlan.

Holy....I was just about to watch the stream on Twitch.

Arlecchino: Childe? Oh his a Child Hahahah Childe is the gingerbread of the harbingers hahah

1:31:29 he really said fuck y'all capitano hater😭 Why is she beefing with everyone 😭

Something I would note about Childe and Scara's lines about her is that those are a result of the "misconceptions" of her - i.e. the supposed "matricide" and "killing of her family members" Childe talked about in her SQ.

Bro the amount of glazing on Capitano... Oooooohhh hyv what are you cooking for him

I'm afraid of the man you'll become once Capitano finally gets to be in game later this year. (But to be honest, I'll be glazing him hard too)

34:35 lmfao I want this whole story animated so bad. It's so cute and dark humor with the good intentions ending in the lizards demise and the bird even taking a piss at it unintentionally. So good

1:17:00 "Read me a bedtime story" - "MurderofBirds" Arnold, who is never beating the ghostwriter allegations 😂

I like how daddy Arlecchino doesn't understand kid's language. She feels like a boomer Arlecchino hates shut in harbingers and Dottore (who keep catching stray) but respect others. Also how she would betray Tsaritsa if they're at odds which is said by Childe since 2.8

something i just realised, Childe is the only Harbringer that didn't get an introduction when we meet him, his introduction was at the start of his 3rd phase

All dialogue about columbina is still mystery and quite unhinged... Now that i think about it her design is quite similar to sparkle...

Why is Dainsleif giving 'Mean girls' vibes 'I saw Father wear a coat and red bottoms...so i bought a coat and red bottoms' 'Thats why her hair is so white....its full of secrets' 😂

Hope the capitano is playable cuz then we might get an actual answer on Columbina 😭😭 I need to know what she is

I think Childe also has 3 powers. 1. Hydro Vision. 2. Electro Delusion. 3. Abyssal powers. As his master Skirk said that Childe awakened the "IT". And the Foul Legacy Transformation is an abyssal power as he states it same as with the Abyss Heralds Vectors Baptists, etc.

4:21 From what i can tell from what's been shown, Arlecchino is about in her 20s or 30s. She can't be over 500 yrs old since she was shown as a child in the house of the hearth under the old Knave which freminet knows of so it isn't possible for those event to have been decades in the past, maybe within 10 yrs. Peruere was 6 when she met Clervie, 16 when she killed her, 17 when she killed Crucabena and after that assumed position of the Knave. Also she said herself that she was the same age as Clervie so she must be a descendent rather than an ancient crimson moon dynasty survivor

Arnold surprising us with a lore vid as much as Pierro surprising us with the big lore drops from just 5 of Arlecchino's questions. Maybe if Traveler joins the Fatui, we'll get the privilege of 5 questions too.

Oh- what?? I thought you would upload this in the far future.. YESSSS!!! THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING IT THIS EARLY!!

Arnold being a part of r/CapitanoMains since day 1

i thought that maybe, the reason why Arlecchino doesn't appear in Liyue is that contract between Morax and Tsaritsa. An agreement similar to the recent one with Neuvillette

Ill never forgive them for not telling signoras lore in a quest

Ngl as a Dottore fan, I hope he gets bodied by any of the harbingers lmao... I believe he'd be greedy enough to even turn his back on the Tsaritsa if he finds something else more worthy of his attention. 🤣 I also think he'd be cunning enough to hide a few more segments from Nahida lmao.. In a world where everyone's fighting to defy their own fate, I hope Dottore is the one who just seeks to control it.

Watched this on Twitch and was surprised to see it early, a great feast and a welcome one Thank you for the video ❤

ALL HAIL CAPITANOOOOOOOOO

I was not expecting this to be posted immediately! 😍

30:34 i wonder if Arlecchino is trying to turn Grand Gothe hotel into a House of the Hearth as well? have we ever been told which Harbinger the Fatui staying there are under?

I am so sorry for your losses. May they rest in peace.

1:20:00 I love that every major patch they have something big or brand new major mechanics, to me personally it's 4.0 I just love any type of water exploration, them adding underwater pulled me in like a fish.

My fav is when arnold get hype for capitano info and fight whoever try to diss capitano www honestly understandable.

Rhinedottir 100% has involvement with Crimson Moon dynasty, evidenced by Dragonspine stuff. Crimson agate, crimson Durin heart, Scarlet quartz Also interesting that there are Fatui stationed around Durin's remains. Dottore's experiments, or Arlecchino's informants?

dottore mentioned lets gooo👅👅

Dottore really is endgame. We have two confirmed Harbingers willing to murder him (Arlecchino and Scaramouche), and potentially even more. I wonder if he'll pay the price for the things he's done, or if he'll manage to walk away without consequences. I hope the latter is the case, because witnessing a repulsive villain win in the end would be peak story experience, ngl.

I cried at "Marelle" (⁠╥ . ╥⁠)

1:52:28 Uncle Roger: _"Haiya! Why so weak? So weak?"_

Les go Knave lore is goated she's gonna be so interesting going forward into the game.Cheers Arnold

Woah! I'm early, and it's the Arlecchino lore reading! Fate has been kind to me

1:29:30 to respect her, she would turn against her. This sounds like the Tsaritsa would want her to do that, like she knows she won't be able to keep her ideals. In Anime there is this trope of killing a loved one because they're under the control of someone or something else. This reminded me of that trope.

Finally!! Some positive comments about Childe from his Colleague, he is still cooking.

Did I watch the stream? yes, am I gonna watch this video? Also yes.

I was about to sleep , and this video comes out of nowhere hoo boy here we go... I really anticipated to see your reaction to her voiceline xD

Columbina history fictionologist confirmed lmao

Wait. Whut. So fast! My Arlechinno is friendship 3! Not using my teapot since it’s undergoing sweeping renovations atm. Still am stoked to listen to this. 🤣🤣🤣

It’s not about Arlecchino… but have you noticed that Tartaglia is the ONLY character who dosen’t have a story about his vision?

1:12:23 they mentioned the worship of a Dead Moon and she (maybe a clan under one of the moon sisters).

I'm gonna need one of those button pressing robots to mash my space bar while I do chores around the apartment during scheznia quests if they are just going to be an hour and half long wall of text. Click text option, go start laundry, click next option, load dishwasher, click next option, vacuum carpet, click next option, put clothes in dryer, next option, empty dishwasher, next option, make dinner, next option and so on.

31:15 lets be honest, an intelligence group like HoH wont survive under the rule of Ninguang. Ninguang quite literally has recruits everywhere, including little children from around liyue harbor. She has her own version of HoH at Wangshu Inn and other establishments, not to mention Yelan and the Tianshu also keep an eye for something suspicious. If HoH had their base there, they would instead be under Ninguang's scrutiny. To make matters worse, Zhongli himself is roaming the streets of Liyue now, and while he wont involve himself in the spy and counter spy group, Fatui cant really plan something catastrophic with Morax quite literally being in Liyue.

4:27 I mean from the animated short and the story quest we know she was a child not too long ago. She’s probably in her 20’s. And her boss archive lore says she’s lived a short life thus far so that pretty much answers that.

I knew this was coming but didn't know you were uploading it TODAY. Watched the vod on twitch a few hours ago😂 should've waited lol

Amaging content as always Arnold! 😌

just like how neuvilette was able to save fontanians by turning their blood into well...actual "blood" could it be that arlechino's curse aka the purgatory fire, ate away her blood too? and as a result she survived the curse of immortality or beastiality(we dunno if she is pure blood or not)?

27:40 I saw someone speculate that Ode to Resurrection could be about Travelers sealed abilities, would be cool if we get put through something that forces the seal that was placed on us to crumble and we get our powers back including our wings. All we'd be missing would then just be our sword which is with our sibling.

Shit i forgot about the enemies of note. So much lore locked away in places i havent looked

25:13 Don’t forget the Hexenzirkel, those also seem to be ridiculously strong, but anyway i hope she doesn’t die lol

Well one death flag appeared on her I thought it would be columbina rather than doctor but I can also see that happening now that you mention it

Tysm for posting this i wasn't able to watch 5 hours of stream. Ty Arnold.

Childe & Wanderer wasn't kidding about Arlecchino. I'll be frank. This woman terrifies me. 😨

I find it very funny that Arlecchino uses such essential and fancy words in most of her voicelines or whenever she talks in general. I think she is pretty mature, her not wanting to burden nor tell anybody much of what she had gone through, I doubt she wants people the comfort her. Her design as well is just so beautiful and awesome, I don't ever think I could ever surpass such designs like Arlecchino's. edit: ALSO I had heard that in the winter night's lazzo where it shows Dottore near the end of him burning Irminsul, the writer of genshin i think had said that it's for FUTURE UPDATES. Not only that but in that scene it didn't really look like the usual location of where the irminsul would be, I could only think that the next region the Pyro region would have Columbina, Dottore and the Captain or maybe Dottore and the Captain.

When I co-op and second fighting Alrecchino boss fight, on 1st stage I the only one standing. Playing as Baizhu😂 I was like, "How the heck I'm the only still alive!" Good thing 2nd stage revive others. Talking on Pierro miscellany, in my head I joke "If Dainsleif don't like Pierro, half of the video he sh*t talk on pierro"😂😂😂

I think the 'corrupt little spirit' among the other ones in her boss fight is just Peruere, basically a representation of her past self before she cast away the name for Arlecchino...but who knows, it could also be Crucabena, and making it look corrupted is just to show how despicable she actually was beneath the mask of "Mother".

As a guy who also like Capitano the most among all the harbingers, I fear what would Hoyo do with that dude in Natalan. As a boss, i wanted him to to be the hardest one to beat, not tanky or one shot mechanics please but 3 phases with some creative mechanics would be appreciated. As for being a playable character, well... we both have to pray Arnold.

I wonder if Dainsleif has those blackened arms too? Crimson Moon pure bloodline - some bloodfire curse. Eclipse pure bloodline - immortality curse. Non-pure - curse of the wilderness, becoming hilichurls. So perhaps all of those curses have a similar appearance? Dainsleif does have that black/blue arm in his splash art...

bro is clearly dont get tsaritsa line right. she talk about respect to her .

I dislike the fact she doesn't have a Scaramouche line, i can see the point that by the time she appears the scaramouche quest is supposed to be done, but not only can you get her before that, the quest is supposed to be optional (for some reason), so yeah, i'm sad hoyo didn't want to have the hassle to add more scaramouche lore in her voicelines

she also modeled herself opposite to the former Knave

To be honest, Arlecchino demolished the 4th harbinger when she was a teen so she is just way more powerful to be 4th, and other than that higher ranks had already been taken when she became a harbinger. since we don't know her power lvl in comparison to higher ranks so nobody knows what she is really capable of.

i recently found your channel (which i have no idea how. i’ve been looking for more lore channels for the past 2 years) and am in awe with your content. you’re very intelligent and well-spoken; i can’t wait to see more 🤍🤍

I enjoyed her story ngl but i still don't understand why ppl hate her SQ 💀

(rolls up sleeves) I am ready to dethrone a god and conquer a captain. The treasure they present better be worth it.

I wonder if her having a scheznaya vision is a sign that she has the approval/support for her to take down a harbinger and take up her position cause the tsaritza saw how much she was working towards her goal.

1:34:35 - Something… terrifying.

It's kinda nice seeing someone play with a decent team that's not OP (C6R5).

Wait a min The hotel is fatui's HQ in fontaine??? Pantalone's Noble Phantasm: Unlimited Balance.

And yet alot of people hated her story quest lolz sad

One thing I find interesting about her Weekly Boss mats is that one of them, the Fading Candle, is, well, a candle, and her Constellation was thought to be something akin what’s called a “hand of glory” which is a candle made out of the severed hand of a someone who did bad deeds. It’s the hand of a sinner you could say *wink wink*. In her case tho I do think it’s more representative of her powers as well as the fact that she’s the leader of the House, so she has the fire of the Hearth in her hands and all that, but I remember the theories before she came out, about it being a Hand of Glory, and now with one of her drops being a candle, I wonder if it is supposed to be a Hand of Glory after all. Perhaps she’s seen as a sinner by the Khaenri’ahns for carrying the bloodline of the Crimson Moon. Who knows.

Since I don’t have her it’s interesting to read about her Also is it me or fate is mentioned a lot recently?either in dialogues or quests

Hi Arnold, we do have a time line hint. The crimson moon set and black sun rose up during the events between Perinheri 1 and 2. And Angelica says that she has come to khaenriah because Deus Auri has defeated the god that she follows. Unless khaenriahns were living under the rock and had no updates on Archon war(they did live under rocks but i doubt their intelligence system wont pick up on the massive war going all over teyvat) we can actually guess when the transition took place. So angelica came to Khaenriah, who ever she is, and even if she lied about being from Liyue, her excuse still only makes sense if its during archon war. Like imagine angelica coming to khaenriah like lets say 1000 years after archon war, and then says that "Oh i came because rex lapis beat my god to dust"..and everyone from khaenriah looking at her funny, like bitch you are 1000 years too late. Her excuse only makes sense if she came around the time of Archon war. So black eclipse dynasty took over in Perinheri, that takes place somewhere right before or during archon war 2000 years ago.

1:30:41 Capitano is a Menace! 1:31:37 bro banning for Capitano slander!!!!!

But what if Sandrone is the ruin butler and the little girl is just an actual marionette to blend in?

Lmao Arnold getting triggered about another Rosalyn's resurrection theory in 27:19 . Do you guys think the "children" in Perinheri's story are in truth spirits from another world that have to pass through a tunnel or chimney (like from the abyss, similar spirits I remember from Xiao's chasm at the end) and through a ritual the Khaenriah'ns bring them back to life in this world of Teyvat ?

"Father's" here!

24:45 - I feel she will eventually be consumed by her own curse and flames. Her flames, burn away at everything, even non tangible concepts like memories. And these flames are literally coursing through her veins. I feel she will eventually be consumed by them at one point, as we see that her curse progresses from finger tips to up her arm, she gains power as it grows. And no power comes without price. Maybe she will be burnt by the time her power reaches its peak. Thus she wont be able to make it to the new world, as she doesn't have much time left. That is why she is more or less eager to hand over the duties to Lyney. She has already started to prepare for her demise. Also, what role does a delusion and her vision play in her powers? Her fire is from her blood line..then she has a pyro vision on top of it. Does that vision give her the ability to empower and control her own flames better? And if so, then what delusion does she holds(because tsaritsa hands each harbinger a delusion, a symbol of their authority)? She didn't even use it. I would assume its something like Hydro or Cryo to keep her own flames under check, just like Signora did but then again, she never uses her delusion powers and she already bodied the traveller with little to no effort. Unless her delusion is also pyro(which just feels redundant and overkill), she might be even more of a beast than we saw lol. Delusions offer the same benefits that a vision does, albeit with side effects. So IF she uses delusion on top of her vision(assuming her body is strong enough to handle the power surge..which it probably is) she would be even stronger..no?

My thoughts on the SQ are, to quote The Knave herself, "Very fun... But it's not enough." That's not a criticism of the story itself. It was great, and had some great subtle characterization moments (my favorite being where she says "Sorry for what? This pitiful excuse for an attack?" and you can hear in her voice that despite what she says, she's genuinely impressed and proud of them). But with Childe and Scara, we got good characterization from the AQ, then their SQ added to this and gave us a really good sense of what their story had been up to now. Even though I want to see more of them, I felt like I had gotten a complete story and didn't need to see them again. With Arlecchino, on the other hand, the AQ basically told us nothing about her. The SQ gave a good sense of what kind of a person she is, but when it comes to things like her true motives, her true goals, what she thinks of the Harbingers and what she wants for the future, I had more questions than answers. Her voice lines partially answer some of them, but not enough, and anyway I want to see that stuff play out in the game, not just read or hear about it. Which again, is not an indictment of the quest itself. I'm just saying, Hoyo better follow through. If all we ever get is fluff cameos in events and other characters' quests until we reach the endgame, I'm going to be very disappointed.

Marelle is what we call ''hopscotch'' in french fyi, it's not a word specifically created to use in the world of genshin (it might seem that way sometimes so i wanted to clear that out)

I dont think people realised yet that the whole point of the animated short that it was a litteral prequel for the story quest,i know that its comes for perspective but saying it was "ruined" because of it, while hoyoverse intentionally preplanned all this is saying too much even if just a matter of preference,that likes me complaining for having to know infinity war before end game So imagine that you have to the story quest first before we got the short knowing how genshin players are i guarantee that no one would give a flying fuck about clervie till arle revealed she was her friend at the middle part to be completely honest arle story quest isnt even about her its about clervie just like the short was for puerer.

I feel like the Capitano is gonna be something like King from one piece, they share a lot of similarities if you know then you know xd

This thought is bugging me. If the Harbinger seats are purely based on strength, why don't they move up in rank when there're empty spots? Should the 7th Harbinger not be the 6th if that spot is empty? Same for the other seats?

Ah, I see you've already played through the story! Will that video be posted onto RU-vid, if it hasn't already?

Greetings, on the Topic of us maybe not receiving a Playable Capitano or Columbina During or even Post Natlan. I would Absolutely Accept that decision making if maybe during that time one of two things Or better yet both end up happening during the Archon Quest if it takes an unexpected turn which also takes us back to the beginning (Mondstadt) To Receive Help/New Banners. Varka's Expedition returns... And Vanessa Descends from Celestia. 🤔 Just a thought that I had upon rewatching your Comics reaction part 1. Also Hyped for the Land of Dragons.

Some complain about he story quest but atleast hoyo did not show that animation during the livestream, means people have choice to watch it or not. knowing that animation is about her, ofc there will be spoiler... but yeah its tempting tho😣🙂

13:22 265 DREAM SOLVENT???? 😱

Furina/Focalors feels more like alter ego or something similar. Nahida and Ru█████a fits the Mother/Daughter dynamic way more in my opinion. Especially because of how Nahida was created.
