Oh we finally got to Elysia. Think Pink Jesus with an ego that rivals the entire planet. I’d explain her more in depth, but if you truly are going to play HI3rd, it’s better that I don’t say much more

Seeing the Flame Chasers again makes my eyes water. But then again, mostly every Honkai Impact Animation makes me tear up.

The story of HI3rd is a little complicated but it makes sense and it comes down to 2 main bosses first being Otto Apocalypse who manipulates the event of the story so the heroes have to fight all these different bosses before they can make any progress and the final boss being Kevin Kaslana (guy with white hair thst asked Elysia "Are you ready?" in the short). So yes its all connected and a little complicated but i still like the story and the gameplay is great too.

Elysia is one of the characters in Honkai Impact 3rd who had an extremely powerful impact on the player base. So powerful that all of her figures and merchandise get sold faster than light. She and the Flame Chasers will never be forgotten ❤

Pink Jesus herself with her 12 apostles.

This movie short only hits you with tears when you know all the context behind all these people, The Flame Chasers , The ghost of old world Era , The Very First Herscher supposed to hate but instead love Human 😭🙏 Glory to the 13 Flame Chasers

Im really loving HONKAI MONDAYs, Can't wait to see your next reaction on HONKAI IMPACT 3RD shorts animation "GRADUATION TRIP" Before that, Do "Honkai Part 1 Final Opening Trailer" first LUKE.

It started with 16:9 screen. Then when her right eye was broken, the screen became 4:3. After she got deleted and just returned from binary numbers, the screen became just like that old tv box. Finally after she obtained the other flame chaser powers, the screen went back to 16:9.

"Is there a main story?" Absolutely - and this is part of it. This particular arc started off as tangential to the main story, but merged into the main story as it became a gigantic source of character development for one of the main characters (who isn't shown in this short). And Elysia, the pink-haired elf of this video, is an extremely important character for several of our protagonists of this game - even if only two of them have ever actually met her.

Ah yes, our favourite Miss Pink Elf. Many people doing blind reactions see these characters as coming from out of nowhere. That's because their story is told through text archives in an optional game mode, mangas, and a dedicated story arc, but I swear they're just as fully built and realised as the rest of the cast. In fact, the most impactful part comes before this animation, where we say goodbye to some new friends. I do love explaining and gushing about this part of the story to people since it's super lore-filled, very hype, and my favourite arc. You may notice Kevin (the guy who could control ice that fought the blonde-haired girl) and Fu Hua (the girl in Shattered Samsara). Slight spoilers about why they're here, feel free to not read: These 13 people are all from the Previous Era, a civilisation that came before that was wiped out by the Honkai. Only Kevin, Fu Hua, and Su (he's never appeared in an animation yet) survived. This arc follows revelations of that era and the people there through a simulation that gets attacked by the Honkai. Everyone gets their moment to shine, even Fu Hua, who's real life counterpart already had a whole different arc.

If you told me that I'd become emotionally attached to the Flame Chasers, as they are known by, when they were first introduced into the game as brand new characters, I would have majorly doubted you. Yet, at the end of their story arc I was brought to tears, and I would continue to say that it is probably one of the best story arcs in the whole game. The long time they spent building their characters patch over patch absolutely paid off by the end of their story. Elysia is the best without a doubt

Notes for this one: -This is the most out of context animation, no prior animation knowledge will even help you with this one lol -There are several "Big Bad"s also trying to fight against an overall greater "Big Bad" if that helps lol -The characters are basically the remnants of 13 heroes 50,000 years in the past from an advanced era that collapsed to previously mentioned overall Big Bad -The Lyrics mention "Once and again telling a story lost in time. The way it starts and the way it ends" The main reason we are seeing these heroes from the Previous Era is because this is all Mei discovering the truth about the past. -This eye thingy can be interpreted as a part of the overall Big Bad. -The credits are mostly pre Honkai Collapse. -The credits also show all 13 heroes, who were indeed present during the animation. -(Pink Jesus herself with her 12 apostles) Only a few more animations left! After that, perhaps the Monday's after you can look into the full songs of the animations. The lyrics are usually really meaningful especially for the character it's meant for. Honkai is good at a thing called "music-evoked autobiographical memory". Just hearing a song start can make one tear up or feel fear... Either way next week is: "Preview of Honkai Impact 3rd Part 1 Finale Opening - Honkai Impact 3rd" if you want some sick animation (but is really short) or "Honkai Impact 3rd Animated Short: Graduation Trip" which is the second to latest animation

One of the beautiful songs in honkai impact 3rd

We always got to appreciate the HoYoverse team for their amazing talent with animations especially for Honkai Impact 3rd, though I don't have much experience with this game but sooner or later I will, but I've seen animation of these before, and even the acting especially in Japanese it's goated.

Everytime I hear this song, I see Elysia again, and the memories of this arc come back, I always tear up. Oh yes Elysia, a character that has won over almost every player in this game in a matter of seconds, me being no different. And this song, oh man, I am not the kind of person to tear up so easily, but Honkai Impact 3rd has done and still does it time and time again. This song and Moon Halo are among my absolut favourite vocal video game osts of all time.

This may be a bit late, but there's one interesting fact that I always remember about this animated video. The Japanese voice actor for Elysia (Marina Inoue) said she was holding back her tears throughout the dubbing process for this video, and this part 6:41 is probably the only moment where she couldn't hold back her tears (you can hear her voice slightly sobbing when saying 'Mochiron (Sure)' ).

To this day, this is my absolute #1 favorite of the cutscenes of Honkai Impact. I remember the first time watching this I was blown away. I had no clue about any of what was happening, but, once the end part, where it showed all of the characters living normally, I broke. I cried so heavily for no other reason than the unknown feelings it invoked. It will always be a beautiful piece to me, with the OST being my absolute favorite out of all of them. Glory to the 13.

Finally my favourite animated short and song! I am so happy you enjoyed it ^^ And well, our lord and saviour Pink Jesus is my favourite character 😆😆😆 To answer some questions. This part of the story was happening in the simulation- that is why the aesthetic is so cyber-focused. There is a main overarching story and yes all the animations belong to this main story. There is a ultimate "big bad". Honestly I can't wait to watch you dive into the story of the game and experience it all yourself ^^

So for Honkai, it has a Main Story mode, several side stories, a complete Event story line that just continues with every few events, and soon a continueation of the Main story. And while not all are integral to the main story, all of the animations are just for different parts of the main story. It is a really interesting story to experience however, and from chapter 1 to 9, it just gets your attention fast, and the other 30 chapters there currently are are all just pure awesomeness to go through

You can think of flame chasers as the people of the past.. Who failed to become heros for their people and failed to protect them from destruction. So they left a message for the future a lession to move forward. Eventhough they failed to be heroes for their people.. We know truely.. That they were indeed without a doubt heroes.

Now you only need to watch "Graduation Trip" and that is the end of the Part 1 of Honkai Impact 3rd story.

Well, the thing is in Honkai Impact 3rd there's no such thing as one big bad evil guy. Everyone is morally gray and even existent "evil" ones are usually some side characters, not main villains. The main "bosses" are like 2-3 entities for the whole game with 42 chapters for now. The story is unite and consistent but there are bosses of story arks who are usually not "evil", just have their own goals. Or a twisted morale, these ones are close to evil. For example this big virtual eye who choose the dumb way to live. There are several arks and animations are usually concludes the story of the arks. This one was for the story of mentioned Flame-Chasers and it's to complicated to explain so there's is no need for that. There are some events but the stories in them are separated from each other and they have no animations. And there is also the whole side-story of Captain (who is actually the player) but the story is completely separated from the main one and divided into several events.

Honkai Impact 3rd Main Story Part 1 is 35 chapters, with multiple 3-6 chapter long arcs. Each arc often focuses on a small set of characters, sometimes parallel in time with other arcs. That's why there's so much variety in the cinematics

There is just one main story, but the "Honkai" is an apocalyptic force of nature and these honkai "Herrschers" spawn which are usually civilization ending threats, or at least can end a continent if left unchecked. and theres over a dozen of them that come in one at a time so while theres an over-arcing plot of defeating the honkai, theres lots of smaller bosses which can still end humanity if they arent defeated.

If you check more about the video, you should notice the "black bars" in the video. Mihoyo did it on purpose! 2 eyes -> 16:9 1 eye lost, 1 eye still there -> 4:3 defeated -> CRT screen return + Ely's blast -> 16:9 And your thinking about the "computer" is kinda true too. Because the whole fight happened in a simulation Area (for more info, you should go check "Elysian Realm")

Also. Yes. Elysia is literally a walking fan service. Horny elf who likes cute things and wants to dress everyone in pink dresses. Yet, she's like top-2 character that HoyoVerse ever created by how well-written she is. Elysia is genuinly an outstanding character. She's a Pink Jesus for a reason

There are main villain/antagonist of HI3 story Otto apocalypse the blonde guy you saw in "thus spoke apocalypse" short animation is one of them, then there's Kevin Kaslana and the Honkai itself. The Main enemy you saw in the previous cutscenes are Herrschers, an apostles of Honkai they want to destroy humanity. They descent on order of 1st to 14th/13th. the one here is Herrscher of corruption the 12th Herrscher, essentially a sentient virus. The main story follow the MC Kiana Kaslana the White haired girl that you saw in most of the animated Shorts, she and her friend are also Herrschers but use their power to protect humanity. At least that the gist of main story part 1.

I cant wait to see your reaction when you actually play this with context !!!

Such a great visual and song to such an amazing game and story. I'm curious to your reaction to "You and Me" another Honkai 3 vid. Always love your content ❤

YEAHH this is one of my fav animations

i have been WAITING for thisss !! aaaa !!! elysia's my most favorite character ever

The 13 Flamechasers Arc came out of nowhere but they did it very well. So well that it made me like all of the characters. I wished to see more of Kalpas in the game... 😢

I always tear up when watching Because of you

To answer you question about the story there are currently 4 storylines Main story part 1 Main story part 2 Captainverse APHO All the animated shorts you've watched so far are from Main story part 1 which is now complete. The game is currently in 1.5 which is kinda an intermission they are using to tie up loose ends and set the ground work for the 2nd Main story we will be getting. Captainverse is a completely separate storyline that's only told through events so none of the shorts reference it. APHO is basically a sequel of sorts as it takes place 8 years after the end of Main story 1 but it currently only has 2 updates though they've been revealing alot of contextual knowledge in 1.5 about what we saw in APHO

Knowing the story this brings me to tears we love our girl Elysia 🥹

That girl is Elysia, a character you meet fairly late in the story. Also known as Pink Lesbian Jesus.

Omgggg queen Elysia❤❤

Who are the Flamechasers? They are fallen heroes of the past. They lived in pain and died in vain. They went through countless suffering and tragedy. However, their footsteps, create a one and only chance for the future to bloom. Without their sacrifices, humanity would never have a chance to stand up again. Anyway, Farewell, Elysia, a innocent girl who love humanity to the fullest Eden, a pure rhythm amidst the debris of a fallen era Aponia, a shackled sinister desperately challenged fate Mobius, a silent scientist never be acknowledged Vill-V, a troublesome and reckless genius Su, a kind and rational doctor Griseo, a blank canvas could not be drawn Kosma, a teenager thrist for the best of both worlds Sakura, a soft petal rest inside a cold blade Kalpas, a warm heart behind a mask of rage Hua, a fragile yet hardest soldier Pardofelis, a lucky cat with a simple dream And, Kevin, a hero.

Now we finally getting to the real good shit... nice!

I could explain to you the honkai story in a 50-page essay, or you could watch recap vids. Either way, it's best experienced through the game itself imo

You'll get everything when you start playing the game. It's better that way to remain spoiler free. Love your reactions! Waiting for your Honkai Monday to become Honkai streams ❤

Animation is culmination of quite long chapters so you need context of full chapter to fully get animation (and even watch animation couple of times to catch all details)

When I started this game, I thought the game has a good story. Then as I play more, I learned this is a story with a good game.

In short, the pink elf is one of the 13 heroes called flame chasers in the previous era. They fought with Honkai but lost, only few of them are still alive in current days which is 50000 years after. Their memories and personalities are kept in "Elysian Realm" which is like a digital world. One day, Raiden Mei (a.k.a Herrscher of Thunder) reached to Elysian Realm and started to learn more about their past stories.

the concerts are basically like 1-1.5 hours of this level of music man, can't wait for those to show up here ;) *hint hint nudge

Fun fact: Elysia's voice actor also voiced Armin in Attack on Titan!

Yeah They Called "Flame Chaser" a Hero From Past Era ❤❤❤ 50.000th ago from current story time line in game ❤

Lo mejor de todo el video, es la memoria que deja la empresa para los Flame Chasers, les dan vida.

Ah yes, the 13 flamechasers. Probably one of the most beloved groups in mobile gaming history in terms of proportion of ppl who met them and loves them. It sounds like a diss but i quite like that "13 people who failed to become heroes" description, especially if you add that "tragedy is the beginning of hope" quote at the end.

all hail pink jesus! super simplified, the "big bad guy" is "the honkai", a dimension(?) seeping into ours. the form it takes varies a lot plus lots of internal problems because of it. because of this constant problems, it keeps the concept of who is right or wrong morally gray. yet regardless, it all roots back to whatever "honkai" is messing with things. plus we still dont know what exactly honkai "is", hopefully Genshin and Star rail will give us some hints. I recommend for next honkai monday "Introducing the Honkai-verse | Honkai Operation Center Chapter 1 | Honkai Impact 3rd" from their official playlist called "honkai Chronicles", but nothing else from there if you are to play the game. I would also prefer, in light of your original purpose of music oriented channel, the version trailers since almost all of them have banger osts exclusive to the trailers, but that will depend how far the honkai mondays goes. fair warning, version trailers will also be slightly hinted with spoilers, so it depends on you. to nominate 2 of my favorited in ost: -v6.7 Straying Stars and -v4.2 Rosemary's Nocturne

Fun fact: The girl with pink hair and Armin (Yes, Armin from AOT) have the same voice actor

Great video again. For the next, my suggestion is a trailer "part 1 finale: The moon origin and finale"

A lot of people called this arc. The filler arc. And yes it is canon To the story arc think of it as a Final Waltz of group of people. The Pink girl is name Elysia, which is one of the flamechasers. I won't spoil what she did but it's so sad. To the main story. This chapter if I remember correctly. It is connected to an in-game mode called Elysian Realm? Which is a dungeon-like mode. it is like a backstory of the original 13 heroes/flamechasers. I won't spoil more

Omg, we've finally arrived to "Because of You". I really like your reaction. All who wattched it BEFORE playing Elysian Realm arc feel the same. But I swear you it will hit different when you'll watch this AFTER. I have to pay your attention to animation progression in the 2nd half of short. From hand drawing retro anime style of 80s-90s, through computer animeted 2010s' style, to modern 3D CGI. That progression has a plot reference. All animated shorts you watched are part of the main story. You can say arcs in it are somehow like seasons of mostly any shonen animeanime (Shonen is a genre of anime similar to Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, My Hero Academy, etc. ) I suggest the next should be "Part 1 Finale" trailer AND "Graduation Trip" animated short.

Elysia 💝🌸

Most beautiful OST in Honkai 3.

The Thirteen Flame-Chaser just like Avengers but they lost and lost humanity once, the earth. When the earth regenerated life for the second time, we had a present honkai

The easiest way to understand the story is that every boss in HI3 has its own dimension/universe which makes itself a god in that dimension.. like the parable that the enemy is strong

Fun fact ... Elysia is voiced by the same VA as Armin from AoT. No wonder he could be a decoy for Historia, that voice is indeed very nice.

Finally, Elysia my beloved 😭❤️

Hehehe, yeah, as much as this Animated Short is still a Interesting One, you won’t be understanding what this one is about, unless you play the Game, i mean there is a Video sort of explaining it, but i feel it doesn’t cover enough, honestly out of all of the Animated Shorts this one is the one that feels the most Self-contained, it’s still a good watch though. Anyway, I do hope you do Honkai Operation Center: Chapter 1 at one of these Mondays, at some point. It doesn’t even have to be any other, just Chapter 1, because i feel like it’s the least Spoiler-y, mostly because i think it covers what i don’t think is covered in the Game much, i could be wrong about that though. Also, it will probably help you understand what this Game is about, much faster than the Game would at first, probably.

finally... its time for the favorite game character in my life take the stage, that sussy pink elf that i love so much, the 13 flame-chasers alone are the best history on any game ive ever seen.

I love Honkai Mondays.

Mihoyo also has 2 mini Honkai anime series. Cooking with the Valkyries season 1 and 2 as well as Elf Acadamy. Do not think you can react them though, last time I saw someone try they got copyright struck on youtube.

Here's a quick resume of things in HI3rd without spoiling major plots: Humanity is oppressed by the Will of Honkai, a Supernatural entity (that still to this day I haven't a clue of why it does the things it does), that emanates Herrschers, which are akin to demigods or literal divinities that have control over some domains (i.e. Raiden Mei is the Herrscher of Thunder) and while some try to eradicate Humankind, others ally themselves with or are straight up born from Humans (i.e. the Herrscher of Reason). To fight the bad ones, Humanity recurred to various means, first with the Flame-chasers (the people we saw in the video), then Saints from the Church and finally the Valkyries (which are the playable characters in HI3rd). This is just the premise of the whole game, but the story, albeit being often hard to grasp and some other times being very dispersive, it's still quite linear, with many subplots that all converge to a single ending (even though it's the ending of the Main Character Story, the game is still being updated with what happens to many major characters and in January we will get the Honkai Impact 3rd: Part 2 update. So if you want to play the game and get even with the plot, well, no time like the present.

just to give you an idea of how good the honkai writers are: the main story's first arc is chapters 1-25. 26-28 is an ending but kind of separate. after that, they proceeded to create 13 characters, of which 10-11 of them are BRAND NEW, NEVER BEFORE SEEN. in an optional game mode (which also doubles as spectacular endgame combat content), as well as 3 chapters, 29-31, they started and ended a story that had an almost entirely different cast than what had come before, and could even be considered entirely separate. all while updating the game constantly, and preparing for the ACTUAL ending of 'part 1', which concluded in chapter 35. the writers are some multi-dimensional transcendental beings istg

"I cannot tell you what da heck the story is about" Me who has been playing this game for 2 years now: "Neither can I, mate."

When this animation came out i was only playing the game for half a year but already cought up with the story and the end of the Elysium Realm arec(the game's Roguelike mode) hit SO damn hard, i was crying for quite a while thats for sure. As for whats next, the Moon's Origin and Finality trailer is a nice one to watch followed by graduation Trip no?(someone correct me if i'm wrong) so look forward to those! Also, when are u gonna do a Concert reaction? really curious how u would react to them, especially this song(TruE) wich is even better live!

Remember that these videos come out every three or four chapters and most of the later chapters are 3-5 hours long so you really are missing a lot that happens in-between each video. Yes there were 13, 4 of them in the matrix area and 8 more once back in the computer area plus Elysia. The main characters are Kiana, Mei and Bronya but there is a number of other characters that are important or even focused on at certain parts of the story.

Okay so to explain...the character you just reacted to was one of the "Thirteen Flame-Chasers". in the game series it went flame chasers, gun girlz and then Honkai Impact. The Thirteen Flame-chasers are characters that existed about 50,000 years in the past of Honkai Impact which is commonly called "The Previous Era". There are some survivors from that whom I will not name but they were people who tried to be humanity's heroes in their era and failed. SPOILER WARNING NOW YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED Elysian Realm takes place in a "Black Box" that has inside it virtual representations of the memories of all the flame chasers but its actual purpose was to seal the Herrscher of Corruption, one of the ones responsible for the fall of the previous era. This animation takes place there with Elysia and the other virtual flame chasers sacrificing themselves to defeat the Herrscher of Corruption for good, though a fragment of Elysia still exists as she becomes the Herrscher of Human Ego. Before that one of the Honkai impact characters went inside and got to know each of them and Elysian Realms events actually helps the main cast get stronger while also setting off the events to come

That's the Pink Jesus and her 12 friends which makes up the 13 flamechasers

each hero have there own bad boss? like the BGM

This is the Herrscher of Corruption, the evil boss. While this story was going on, ama I remember, we had an event where we had to fix the game, there were weird bugs and characters who shouldn't be there etc..... since the Herrscher corrupted the game The game doesn''t have good or bad guys, most of the time. Everyone is the way they are in their own story

Animations are happening at the end of an each big story arc. So characters already did all the work and now you just watching like a final showdown. There's no way to understand literally anything about the story just from animations since they're covering maybe 30min-1hour out of 6-8hour chapters. Also all the main characters has their own arcs when they're grorwing and getting stronger. But all of this happening in the main story so you usually won't just completely go to the side quests (Tho, there is one arc that focuses more on a single character rather than on a main story but it's crucial for the character development and just amazing) The next stop is the Moon... Errr... I meant, The next stop is "Graduation Trip" and boy, oh boy... I was not ready for this one when I saw it ingame

Honkai Impact 3rd é um jogo bem difícil de começar a jogar por que ele muito longo e a gameplay é diferente do normal, você poderia ver um vídeo de alguém contando a história do começo do jogo pq a história é incrível de mais

"Because of You" was the climax of the "To The Flawless" arc, right before the part 1 finale. The story begins in a weekly roguelike game mode called Elysian Realm, then ties to the main story. It is the best arc in the game, the characters, their personalities, ELYSIA, so epic and bittersweet, filled with hope and despair. Even the writers said in a recent documentary that they PEAKED with the Flame Chasers. Herrscher of Human: Ego is one of, if not the best concept, design wise and story wise of the game. GLORY TO THE 13😭😭

there is a story and cinematics are even more amazing when you understand what is happening

Honkai Impact III does have a main threat, the tituar Honkai. And we see characters fighting humans(or even AI) corrupted by the Honkai and enacting the will of the Honkai, the Herrschers in a few of the animations, like in this one, Everlasting Flame or Final Lesson. However the impactful conflicts are between humans trying to deal with the Honkai threat, each on their own way. The final boss fight is against Kevin (he already appeared in a few animationsm, this one included) who swore that no matter the cost Humanity will defeat the Honkai, against our protagonists who fight for all that is beautifull in the world.

elysia was, is and will always be my favourite character in any hoyo game. her playstyle, her looks, her personality and even her story are just the best and it is not close

Every animation short ( that include the vocal song ) is a conclusion to certain arc in the main story, It is like an epilogue that describe the whole character arc with a song. One arc can be 1-4 chapters in the game, that's why there are many completely different characters each time you react to the new videos, there are some exceptional that are just the concept animation or just promotional videos that are not canon to the main story.

if you play the game, the ED ver of the song hit like a train, and talking about the train, well next week gonna hit even harder

well... they got a whole mode in game dedicate to them, and even more full main story chapters and call back.

Elysia, my beloved

We all miss her, Miss Pink Elf

the first part of honkai just ended after years, and now they firing the part two

She is our lord, our savior, Elysia, the jesus of honkai

That's our Pink Jesus right there.

She is a god, god of humans

3:45 Really hard to explain - you would need to play the game but almost nobody is evil. Everyone has set their goals and they are trying to reach them. (the goals might not be bad but it might include some morale questions and it could be in a way of another groups goal which might be good as well)

Sooo, I think you almost complete your journey with "main" animations. And the last one is beautiful "Da Capo" song. Where the main story of Kiana is basically end. Hope you will enjoy it the most because of emotions of ending Kiana story. Ofc watch it to the end!) P.S. And before "Da Capo" I highly recommend to watch "Preview of Honkai Impact 3rd Part 1 Finale Opening", it's short(1 minute literally) but very cool animation.

Man....I can listen to the OST without the cinematic and be fine. But everytime I watch the cinematic....I start to tear up. My favorite story arc

btw 06:01 that's subaru's VA

When you pause right at the climax

Befote checking out the next animation, make sure to watch Honkai impact part 1 finale opening. Its a preview to the final arc in part 1 of the story

Elysian Realm was originally just a side mode introduced after Chapter 17 where Mei parted ways with Kiana to join World Serpent to find a solution to save Kiana from eventually succumbing to honkai infection by overusing her Void powers. Part of this solution was Mei returning to the Herscher of Thunder, which took the Gem of Conquest away from Kiana, giving her some extra time to recover. But Kevin is actually pretty kind, and it was also to fulfill the wish of Elysia, a fallen comrade from 50000 years ago, who wished to meet another human Herscher. Elysian Realm is a digital copy of the Flamechasers, the original heroes facing against the Honkai, whom ultimately lost the battle unfortunately. Their digital copies continued to work to develop ways to help future humanity's war against Honkai, wishing to leave behind the footsteps that would lead humanity to salvation. Every single one of them is amazing, and they gave everything, TWICE, to give humanity a chance to survive. The Thirteen Flamechasers and Elysia are some of the best things to come out of Honkai, and that bar is set very very high.

While there are antagonistic characters, nobody in _HI3_ is entirely good or entirely evil. Each arc has its own antagonist, and in this one it's the Herrscher of Corruption. Elysian Realm is a quantum supercomputer containing the memories, personalities, and experiences of the Thirteen Flame-Chasers, the last remaining warriors from the Previous Era 50,000 years before the game's main story. There's also a side story that's mostly formed with the limited time events, called Captainverse. Elysia is the founder of the Flame-Chasers, so you have to include her when you count the Thirteen. She is ranked #2, even though she's the most powerful because she didn't want to be the leader. Many of the other Flame-Chasers are outcasts rather than heroes, but she made a place for them all, whether revered or feared. The challenged with Ellie is _not_ to fall in love with her. The challenge level... is impossible. And yes, _Because of You_ is the perfect cinematic. The song is called 'TruE.' It's the kind of song a person would want to get married to.

Explanation: Spoiler below: All Flame Chasers except Fu Hua, Kevin(*1), and Griseo are dead, They are what I consider "Heroes of the Past" and they are from the Era before Kiana, Mei, and Bronyas' Era. The "Visitor" Elysia Mentioned in 7:20 is Mei(*2) when she visited the "Elysian Realm". IRC this animation is their (Flame Chasers)(*3) sacrifice to deal with the HoC(Herrscher of Corruption)(*4). *1: Kevin is already dead during "Graduation Trip" Animation. *2: Mei and MEI are different people, Mei is the one we are familiar about and MEI is from the Era of the Flame Chasers. *3: Flame Chasers is the group of "Heroes" that Elysia formed back in their Era *4: Herrscher of Corruption is the Main Enemy of the Flame Chasers back in their Era For the rest of the details, I'll leave that to you when you play the game.

Miss Pink Elf is a fan favorite! She's great! Tbh, I didn't trust her either, at first. Early on Honkai trains you to see Pink as Honkai. She has pink on her name and a near congenital inability to answer a question directly. The next ones should be, Part 1 Finale Opening and Transcend then Graduation Trip. The first two are VERY short. Looking forward to your concert reaction.

I’m gonna try and break everything I can down (no spoilers ahead, I can assure you of this). If anyone thinks this is helpful, please like it and allow Luke to see it and get a hopefully better understanding of the animated shorts and how the story works, somewhat. TL:DR (basically just order of subjects, since I can’t properly summarize. I will say what I speaking about in each paragraph, which is only 2-4 lines or so, maybe the same number of sentences) Separation of arcs Animated shorts and their place (1 sentence and a second paragraph) Character roles (good vs evil) Cutscenes/story elements outside of animated shorts (bc of the comment on Apocalypse of the potential movie quality animations outside of animated shorts) Small animations in Regression, the credits song of Thus Spoke Apocalypse In general, game is separated into multiple arcs, but with a set of characters that have either their own journeys or share a journey in each of the arcs. The main white-haired girl seen in many of the animated shorts, except in thus spoke apocalypse (that was a different white-haired girl), is somewhat of the main character, but there are about 6 to maybe ten others (in general, not the major 3-6). In regards to the animations you watched, each one ends an arc, with this one ending the arc around chapter 30ish (can’t remember exact chapter). The one before, Thus spoke apocalypse, was around the later 20s (being vague, i know). Moving forward, each arc is like an interactive (through fights) storybook, or like a movie itself, with a large part being dialogue, and fights making the game a game. Through the dialogue, Honkai tells the story of the arc, occassionally while also developing the stories of past arcs or foreshadowing future ones. At the end of each arc, which may make up around 2-4 chapters, an animation acts as the conclusionary piece, with some actually finalizing the arc (being at the end of the chapter), and others having an afterstory dialogue section after it. Think somewhat similarly to how Genshin Impact has the talks with Venti and other Archons at the end of the archon quest animations. In terms of bad guys and good guys, you can think of it as with real life, in a way, where anyone is good or evil by their actions, not their beings. By this, I mean that we view the chapters through the perspectives of characters, meaning that some characters are simply viewed as evil or their actions are by the characters we are experiencing the story through. For example, the black-haired girl from the animated short, Lament of the Fallen, was not evil, but their values conflicted with those of the character we experienced the story through. Yes, I know there are some bad guys, but in general, I can only think of 3-4 in the story (no spoilers). By the way, this was asked in the Apocalypse video, but about other scenes in the game outside of the animations. While there are not many animations outside of the shorts (maybe just a few random ones or live 2d (moving gif images) in the game’s story dialogue sequences), many of the story bits, which make up a large amount of the game, have complementary images, 3d moving or still character portraits, and voices from about chapter 3 onwards (I think). These do a similarly good job delivering the story and the dialogue usually paints a good picture of what’s happening without animations. As for the stuff you saw in apocalypse, a good few of those animated scenes in Regression (after blond dude fell from the sky), were animated panels or scenes from Honkai’s mangas. They related back to the chapters, and I believe Honkai even had them in a tab under the chapter itself, so as to let people know that reading the mangas for that chapter would give them background information prior or around the time of the chapter. That is all for now. I will make a note and return to add more if I think of anything, but I hope this can help somewhat.
