Notice how at the very start he had mostly white clothes. Because he was innocent, a blank slate barely touched by negative emotions. But as he grew bitter with grief, with none to help him cope, he dawned dark clothing, symbolizing his corruption and loss of innocence
Most interesting thing is ,Even he hates the world, hates his "mother".No matter how hard he denies it,all evil things he did is for the sake of becomeing an emotionless puppet, which is what he thought his "mother" wanted from him.Deep inside him, he still wants Ei to see him as a child worthy of the "heart" and love.That is a very realistic portrait of an abandoned child.
Well , ei never saw her puppets as her children. Even in her dialogue she said if the puppet gets damaged she can just replace it. If shorty here has mommy issues, its on him.
@@fly8668 but in the end, she didn't dispose of him, in her mind, she's giving him freedom, but what does freedom mean to a god? Freedom is a choice and Scara didn't feel like he had made a decision
This comment is making me so much sadder about his story omg 😭 I love him but I never found this story crazily sad because a lot of people in genshin and real life don't have parents, but this is just ☹️
I admit that I never liked him, but his backstory is so tragic. The way he said "my mother" right before he get abandoned just... Heartwrenching to say the least. Even then he tried to form bonds, twice, and he lose both of them. Now I can understand why he became so cruel and callous. He felt that the world keeps on betraying him.
The fact that He called Ei ''mother'' is legit painful. He feels abandoned and rightfully so. But I don't think taking the Gnosis will solve his problems. In the artifact description It is said that the first time He got the Gnosis inside (when Ei put it) He shed tears. I don't think the Gnosis is the ''purely divine'' thing He thinks it is. Or at least something will not exactly go as he envisioned. He wants to get rid of all his feelings but that is not the right way to deal with your problems
The more I read the lord the more I hate Ei. She brought so much pain to her own peoples and she didn’t have to pay for any of it. She shouldn’t be their ruler anymore after all the shit she pull. Edit: for the people who keep trying to argue with me about me nothing liking ur fav. I just simply hate her. It nothing personal you guys don’t need to take it personal. You guy can like her and think what she did is justify. But simply for me I don’t find her reasoning understanding. Don’t reply to me if you only try to insult me for not liking ur fav. It a fictional character they don’t feel anything we can hate and love them base on personal references. I just don’t like Ei, is that really hard to understand. You can hate Scaramouche too he is also a shitty person. I am not going to force you like him. I just find his reasoning more understandable and I feel for his story more than Ei 😓. Edit2: Wow Ei simp are really toxic eh. I don’t like her mean I don’t like her calling me name and insults me not gonna change my mind it just make I hate ur fictional god more lol.
@@sxkk I was kinda on an okey term with her too. Untill I saw Scaramouche backstory, it kinda make me hate her all over again. I am not going to say that Ei is the only one who hurt him and his actions is justified or anything. But dam got rejected by ur own “mother”, the only and first person he knew at that moment. That must have hurt a lot.
Hoping that when the traveler will leave Teyvat with their sibling, Scaramouche will have found his own reason and purpuse in that land, or this is just gonna be another betrayal... 😭 (And since I don't want that, my traveler is NOT finishing the story until that baby boy is fine and happy, for god sake... 😠)
There is a small detail in this cutscene. When Scara brings food for the boy, his face is dirty. There's also a little dirt on his clothes, left side near neck. It shows that Scara literally got his hands dirty in order to care for a child. It's a very small detail, but really adds to his original innocence.
3 times betrayal. 1, from intention. 2. From someone he trusted 3. From someone that can't keep the promise At the end, scaramouche is like a child who need attention and love
@@ChEeZZ00 All of which are his misinterpretation and ignorance about life. He felt betrayed but there's no one actually betrayed him, maybe his Mommy Raiden.
@@cardongputik2257 nah the other two can be seen as misinterpretation but the first one was with good intentions but with bad actions. Ei literally put him to sleep there forever but not guiding your own creation is a big problem especially when the creator is a parental figure.
Ei technically wanted him to live his own life. She didnt want him to be the puppet because he was emotional. Knowing how Ei was blinded by her pain that she couldn't express this to scara is sad. She could've simply disposed of him after but she didn't. I think Ei was afraid to be attached to anyone again because she was afraid she'll lose them again. Ironic how at the end of the day both felt they were left out.
Believe me, even though Ei has good intentions, the community would still blame her. And the fact that it is yae who wants to kill him, the community act as it is nothing.
I think it’s less of the fact the community puts a lotta shit on Ei because she literally threw him into a domain to just sleep for centuries and that’s where the feeling of him being abandoned by Ei comes from. Ei didn’t chose for him to just live his own life after she found he wasn’t suited for the Electro Gnosis. She literally threw him away into a slumber until he woke up somehow- which if I recall was not something Ei did. It was only after he awoke from his slumber that Ei went “oh, ok. He’s awake? Cool I’ll just… leave him alone…” 0/10 would NOT take mother advice from Ei.
@@misswayward4002 so, you mean it is better for Ei to take him after he awoke and then losing him and Ei goes berserk again? Literally, when he woke up, it is not Ei, but the Shogun doing the control in Inazuma. Okay, yae is right. She better kill him. Yae is always right because she is the golden child of Mihoyo. I think hoyoverse doing a great job making an Antagonist, regarding what they do to make clear Ei's intentions in her story quests, the community still hate her. The mission success.
People who say he’s selfless with the boy’s death just remember he was already of the verge of insanity after the two betrayals so the third was just snapping the final straw that’s barely holding itself together
Thissss i would also feel betrayed if someone promised me that they will stay by my side then they suddenly died but ofc his not mad at the kid for dying his mad bc the kid broked his promise to stay with him
I think that his anger over someone dying is valid. There are stages of grief and one of them is anger. When you lose someone, anger comes in different forms. I myself have had experiences with hating, and I mean like loathing someone after they died and promised to be with me forever. Not because they had died but more so because I was already hurting and it felt like they betrayed me and left me in this world to suffer alone. I remember how loud I wanted to scream out that I hated him with all my being, with all I was and all I would ever be for what he did and for leaving me alone. For dying before me and leaving me to suffer even more pain than I had been before.
What’s sad is that it shows he was once a happy boy who had friends and family but they then betrayed him…it’s heartbreaking. It’s even more sad when you hear how he says “my mother”…
@@cheesecheese6459 yeah I wanna tell that to his face face like "it's not his fault he died, mf!" 🤣🤣 I love this dude and have hope for him that he'll get a redemption arch, BUT BEFORE THAT lemme slap some sense in him! 😤
@@cheesecheese6459 Maybe i missed some lore when i was looking through his artifacts and such, but i wonder who the little boy was? Maybe this was the boy he met while going through an inazuma town, the one that was mentioned not being there anymore the next time he visited the place years later
His backstory just broke my heart. He doesn't choose to be evil but the circumstances made him so. Just imagine being abandoned by your mother the first person you know in this world , it's too painful.
and that's just his side of the story , while on the other side Ei, gave him freedom to live his life instead of destroying these "prototype" because he has developed feelings
@@itsSmiv nah he just doesn't have a parental figure to guide him. And just because someone went through 'worse' that does not mean anything. I don't think you read his full lore.
@@anezuka2464 one doesn't need a parental figure to not be evil. And yes, it does mean something. It means that becoming evil was completely his choice.
Not really, it was his choice to be evil. Take Ayaka and Ayato as an example, their parents were killed by Fatui, the retainers rebelled against Kamisato Clan, she was literally betrayed by everyone at that time. And still, Ayaka and Ayato chose to rely on each other and start from zero again.
“I will scrub away every last trace of human emotion”, he says, oozing about 20 layers of emotion. Srsly tho the voice acting in this cutscene is on another fucking level. It’s amazing. Special shoutout to “my mother” and the brittle way he says “good riddance!”
OMG SAMEEEE cos we finally got the confirmation that he is truly Raiden Ei's son. And he considered her, at least used to, to be his mother. Like I cried and screamed at that lines
Well , ei never saw her puppets as her children. Even in her dialogue she said if the puppet gets damaged she can just replace it. If shorty here has mommy issues, its on him.
@@fly8668 the puppet clearly refers to the Shogun, not Scaramouche. The very reason she set Scaramouche "free" is precisely because she DOESN'T see him as a puppet
So he tried to act like a normal human, but betrayals and deaths from his close ones made him bitter, made him loath humans. That loath soon turned into being a sadist, enjoying the pain of others. Seems that’s why the Tsaritsa took an interest in him, making him a Harbinger…
He wasnt even really betrayed by those people (except for Ei who did abandon him) but I do think he felt betrayed. The 2nd person (Kazuha relative) saved him from a murderous person that actually wanted to kill scaramouche by sending scaramouche away but this made scara think that the 2nd person didn't want scaramouche. The 3rd person was obviously sick for some kind of reason and died to that but made a promise with scara that he couldn't fulfil and this made scara upset at the gods even more and also at mortality.
I think that he didn't (or doesn't) know how to process his emotions or to interpret the emotions of others. Based on his artifacts lore, the only one that actually kinda betrayed him was his mother. katsuragi (2nd one) and the child had no intention of betraying him but scara's opinion was affected because of outside factors that, within his own reasoning, were enough to count as a betrayal. He technically possessed as much understanding as that of a small child as he said so when he compared himself to the child he befriended so maybe he didn't fully understand the whole context of the situation. Now add a little archon power into the mix and then you have scara.
@@res6148 he says himself he feels more betrayed by the world which makes more sense. He's just frustrated with ei and human and due to his path he feels like the world betrayed him
I think it's very interesting how his story and motivations parallels and contrast Ei's. Both suffered terrible loses in their lives, but Ei decided to make sure she did not have to lose anything ever again, even if that view got twisted by the Shogun's actions. Whereas Scaramouche decided to take everything away from the world that once took everything from him. She chose to preserve, he chose to destroy.
I do find it interesting that they both want the same thing: to never again feel the pain of loss and betrayal. Ei tried to block out the outside world to achieve that, while scara tries to rip out his emotions. Like mother like son.
You know what sometimes i truly wished ei follow yae advise and just destroyed him but... We wouldnt get into this plot but yeah my opinion is prolly not irrelevant rn 😅
@@syiraalia1830 lmaoooo. Tbh, I don't know how things will turn out if Ei truly did got rid of Scara. Maybe, his existence would be the the key to Ei's learnings on how tl further understand humanity on a deeper, parental level. Makoto already imparted to Ei her wisdom, it's now up to Ei to apply those lessons towards her future relationship with her son.
For those of us who know him from 1.1, after seeing this, now I really feel like killing him would be the biggest tragedy. For someone to try not once, not twice but three times to love the people who he held so dear and being betrayed regardless. It's true that he's done terrible things and ended entire bloodlines out of spite. However Ei letting him go like that without a proper explanation, yae thinking that they should have killed him from the beginning. Death was a mercy but yet it shows another person who rejects him in the world that he was so excited to be a part of. And after all of this he thinks that he can erase it all by becoming a God. If he were to be killed by the traveler, who has shown so much kindness to many. It would probably be the most terrible thing and just a big "we don't want you" from the world. Little Kunikuzushi might need a hug guys.
Same was so mad after the original time of seeing him again when Teppei died but now its just unfortunate. Where I stand now is I wanna stop him but I don't know if we'll destroy him or not.
I'm hoping we change out view of him and act at least a little bit nicer after seeing through his pov, since we didn't react back then in the quest because we were in a hurry
Same I really want a quest of them reuniting with them again. Consider MHY kinda make the mother and son relationship canon with this cutscene, I really want this relationship to develop in the future.
@@lazycat4331 I have a prediction that after the boss fight we take him back to inazuma to face his "mother" and they made up. Lmao (but I hope they do 😭) Don't take this prediction too seriously!
If anything, this cutscene didn't make me angry towards Ei. Just sad for them both. A mother and a son fell victim to circumstances and had done bad things in the name of what they believe in. At least, all hope is not lost. Ei has already seen the error of her ways and actively trying to change. I hope Scara does the same soon in the story. And please Hoyo let these two meet to get some closure. It won't be easy, but it's a start on their path towards healing.
One of the more level-headed comments I've seen here lol. Lots of people just blindly hate Ei because of what she did to their baby boy Scaramouche. But it's really closer to a Frankenstein and monster situation. Ei let him loose with good intentions, but Scara chose the path of evil. They are both to blame. Ei has stepped up being the only archon to rule her country so far and own up to her mistakes and shortcomings. Venti just lets things run on their own, and Zhongli is retired, sort of, both leaving their responsibilities to someone else. Even after centuries, one can change their entire life for the better. This means Scaramouche can also go through the same thing. I hope Scara and Ei meet in the future.
@@Etherwinter I mean you shouldn't blame Venti for not handling everything, he is an Archon who believes in freedom and he has done alot of groundwork to allow Monsdadt to prosper. There is a reason Monsdadt is the only region without active threats from the Fatui and Treasure hoarders. It is because the people understand the responsibility that comes with freedom.
Well , ei never saw her puppets as her children. Even in her dialogue she said if the puppet gets damaged she can just replace it. If shorty here has mommy issues, its on him.
Damn, his voice actor is so good at conveying emotions ever since his first appearance. One of the top voice acting for sure. Do we know who's the VA yet?
The difference in perspectives regarding Ei leaving Scaramouche is so interesting. From her pov, she’s letting him be his own person and she’s not burdening him with the purpose of holding the gnosis. But from his pov, it’s abandonment. Waking up all alone, without knowing the true intentions of your parent definitely hit him hard and clearly screwed up his self esteem. Ei wanted to protect him from the weight of the gnosis since he’s fragile. But she never communicated this with him, so now he’s gotten the wrong impression. Their relationship could’ve been so much more had they talked it out. I think this is one of Ei’s biggest flaws; hiding away and not communicating. Her entire ordeal of protecting inazuma’s eternity resulted in devastating economic and social problems for her people. She quite literally became a tyrannical ruler. But her intentions were not rooted in cruelty. She’s finally getting through this flaw of hers since her second story quest (cuz Inazumas archon quest was horribly rushed and the timing of her first story quest was even more horrible). Hopefully, she gets the chance to reunite scara and fix her mistake. I think their mother-son relationship has a lot of potential if mihoyo actually expands on it even further
Losing your sibling without warning can do that to you. I blame Makoto for putting this burden on Ei and starting this sequence of events that lead Scaramouche on his wayward path.
I'm pretty sure that was his motive from the start, but as he progressed through life he was just blinded by rage and now only wants power and strength to spite her. He probably yearns for that love internally, but will never show it until he learns that expressing emotions is a part of life.
You still think harmony and sorry exist, You make me laugh and sick, In genshin impact its a world with war and violence just as those deadbeat archons are so the ballad has nothing to be sorry for he is going be something more powerful
I know not everyone likes him but damn this just made me feel for him even more Once you come home Scara you’ll never be abandoned again Aside from Childe , I wonder if all the harbingers have some tragic backstory
Well, their goal is to change the world, which means they did not like it for at least some extent. Maybe not all, but at least half of them do have a tragic backstories. Or only the future playable ones does, to make players want them more, haha😄
They made little Scaramouche look so precious! His completely innocent, curious eyes, his precious happy smile, he's literally a child! So adorable! Also, is it only me or Genshin 2D animation here looks better than ever? I mean, it really seems more alive and more dynamic for me.
@@popsicIes He was announced playable like a month ago He's getting a redesign as well. As far as we know, He is a anemo catalyst user. His redesign is said to be a dark blue kimono
@@FreakyOverhaul HE'S ANEMO??? Sorry believe it or not I don't play or watch genshin, im literally only here because i like scaramouche So are y'all just gonna kick his ass, change him into a kimono, and then take him????
Scara is manchild. EI did not even abadoned him, she let him go because he cannot bare using Gnosis. Yae Miko want adviced Ei to dispose him, but she refuse
@@HapPawhere that’s true but you could say that about like some of the most popular villains like Madara he became evil because of the perspectives of his own idea peace etc etc. I did a terrible job at explaining but I hope u understand lmao
I’m screaming because this confirms that Katsuragi is the “Niwa” that would have the Kaedehara clan as his descendants, including Kazuha. Also, Scara backstory is so sad, I feel so sorry for him And the music…so somber and tragic too. Really befits the mood! Overall, amazing cutscene!
@@lilytheflower-4004 Katsuragi is the young deputy that finds Scara wandering about. He works as a yoriki under the Inspector, Mikoshi Nagamasa and becomes Scara’s closest friend basically. At the forging of a significant blade, the two performed a sword dance together while the rest of the group felt joy from the occasion. However, he eventually learns of Scara’s affiliation with the Shogun and warns him not to let others know of his true identity during his wanderings. Mikoshi later also finds out Scara’s identity and then slew Katsuragi for a misconduct despite the deputy’a good intentions. Despite this, Scara saw Katsuragi’s reaction as a betrayal (and maybe the Tatarasuna group’s as a whole, since they were divided on Mikoshi’s motives after he killed Katsuragi). What makes him Niwa is the fact he has a red stripe in his hair; when Scara was plotting to destroy the Raiden Gokaden, he caused the decline of the Isshin Art through manipulating a forging blueprint. This would lead to a confrontation with Yoshinori Kaedehara, Kazuha’s great-grandfather, in the flashback of the Irodori Festival. There, Scara paused to inquire him on the name “Niwa” after seeing something distinguishing about his appearance. Yoshinori says that it was his surname before he was accepted into the Kaedehara Clan. After a few departing words (“Tell her this: my name is Kunikuzushi.”), Scara leaves and later abandons his plans to destroy the Raiden Gokaden. It’s speculated the true reason he did this was out of realization he may have been harming Katsuragi’s descendants, who developed the Isshin Art. That makes Kazuha also a descendant of Katsuragi.
@@corinnetheanime So that means if Scaramouche meets Kazuha, he will probably recognize him because of the red streak in his hair ? This would make a very interesting encounter !
"It took me 3 lost 50/50's for me to finally understand: The gacha system is just an elaborate tapestry of lies. My bank account will never be quelled.

i love how inazuman they made his cutscene, really adds to the consistency and interconnectedness of the world building. they could’ve easily made it sumeru styled since we are in sumeru now, but i like how they kept it inazuman. it’s like hoyo was saying, “don’t forget his heritage”. sumeru archon quest one of my favorites so far 💚
Did anyone else realize that at 0:37 that is probably Kazuha's ancestor, that would one, explain why Scara harmed the Kaedahara clan and also the fact that in this scene he is making a sword which also lines up??
@@lmao6331 I feel like this quest both confirms and contradicts a lot of the scara lore that theorists knows. maybe its just me, but the third betrayal being from a child wasn't something i expect (yes he was hinted to be good with children, but I didn't think that a child's death was the third betrayal, I thought it was the Fatui or smtg). It's also interesting the way he worded the second betrayal because it makes it look like katsuragi (kazuha's ancestors) were the ones who fears him and sees him as a threat (it could be referring to nagamasa instead of katsuragi, but the wording was rather vague in the cutscene)
... Speaking as someone who has a really similar mother like Ei.. I understand why Kuni understood it that way.. He knows why he got abandoned; Her mother needs someone who isn't emotional--someone who truly cannot feel like a mortal. But Kuni is the opposite, he cannot fulfill his mother's requirements, and so he got 'discarded'. If he's emotional as much of a mortal, a simple kind of comfort coming from his mother is already too much for him--and could possibly even change his way of thinking (some doubts about Ei about it but he will think that Ei cares for him.) A short and simple letter would suffice and would definitely help improve their bond as a 'family', unfortunately Ei doesn't think the way Kuni does.. She's in need of a unemotional puppet, and for sure giving freedom for Kuni is all she could think of. How could someone not misunderstand that as abandonment? A little reassurance and comfort is one of a child needs..If his mother couldn't even write him a simple yet short letter, how could he a small bird not taught how to fly free by his own mother.. Ever experience freedom?
You might understand it as me blaming Ei, but really idk if i do or not.. I don't understand Ei's character much and i commented this to let y'all know how and why Kuni feels that way.. It's still lacking but i might write a bit too much if i decided to write it a bit more detailed
To be honest it's not even a misunderstanding she did just abandon him realistically. Her Intentions may not have been as cruel but her actions is what made him not fully understand emotions. Like he doesn't understand the concept of death at first and saw it as betrayal of the world which eventually Manifested into sadism. I feel so bad for him :(
@@Renaknight yh that's how i saw it too, leaving someone out of nowhere; a place so unfamiliar, one would really think that he had been abandoned. It's just.. I feel like a lot more people would see it truly as an abandonment if it's the modern society--the present orrrr if they aren't just a BIT too biased towards one perpective.. They say "actions speaks louder than words" so ofc he would see it as an abandonment. It's time for people to realise that Ei doesn't understand the mortal ways too, especially where she had thought abandonment is where she could let him set free.
But he didn't know the 2nd person was killed by someone but I couldn't blame him for feeling betrayed. He obviously was feeling lonely and now he despised humanity because of those lies, its only natural to feel betrayed. The dead cannot be talked and he's definitely beyond redemption.
@@kure1908 The second dude is Katsuragi, Kazuha's ancestor. He told Scaramouche to get away from him to protect him from a murderer. Scara however, misinterpreted this. The child is unknown.
I’m fairly certain my heart stopped the entirety of this cutscene. Specifically when he called Ei his mother, but this whole cutscene was wonderfully made and I’m excited to learn more about his backstory.
0:40 it show Scaramouche with his heart broken and it dose go well with what most people theories to be his constellations which I going to gusse to be call Pupa Cordis in english Doll of heart
So aparrently a lot of my friends and some in the comments doesn't get why Scaramoochie hated the kid The answer is he doesn't. He's doing copium by hating a human kid who died from what I assume is an illness since they probably promised something like "they'll always be together." The kid's unforeseen death just caused the resentment towards himself and the misery he went through to just bubble up until he finally snapped. He can't deal with the grief and mourning over a companion he finally thought he could be with. Only for them to die when he got back. In a nutshell his mentality went like this- "Bro I went through a lot of shit, thinking I can finally be happy and you die on me? It's too much for me to feel grief and mourn over you, gonna hate you who died on me when we could have been happy together instead as copium. Oh yea, gonna go on the path to world domination because fuck everything too." Scaramouche had a lot grief. It started with his thoughts of being abandoned by Ei, then betrayed by someone he thought was his friend. He had so much grief, he couldn't take the lost of someone he could finally find company and that was similar to him(the kid he took in was either abandoned or the parents never returned from something since Inazuma is pretty fucked up) So hating someone was just easier for him. He didn't want to feel sad anymore, he's tired of feeling so miserable and powerless. So he starts his journey by snapping, throwing away his 'good' emotions and becomes the cruel jaded man we know now. Scaramouche is scared of feeling hopeful again, he might as well hate, be cruel and merciless, and have all the power in the world so he won't be sad and disappointed again.
I interpreted it as something else but your explanation is much better tbh!! I love it. And wow, those last lines. Brb gonna roll on the floor in misery again lmao.
I interpreted it as a kid who struggled mentally and that “betrayal” is how Scaramouche sees a suicide. Because the kid promised to hold on and he eventually couldn’t. Idk. Your view is good too.
There’s also Dottore’s influence on him. I’m sure he’s done nothing but fan the flames of those negative emotions to get him to well, become a fucking Gundam lol.
his VA never ceases to amaze me. I literally watched this cutscene like a deer in the headlights, it took by surprise, and it’s so beautifully made too! especially gut wrenching if you know his backstory in detail
He's kinda similar to Albedo, but the difference is that Albedo met the right and kind people while Scaramouche lost his ways with endless tragedies.. it's saddening
This made me so emotional I actually teared up. Just this "I am different, nobody wants me, I am all alone and always will be, I don't want to feel this pain anymore" hit extremely close to home. Poor Scaramouche...
That surprised me too. Like i though the "scara calls ei mom was Just a fanon joke that runs in the community like many other fanon/headcanon portrayals in the fandom.
@@LovexDay why not? Both talking could at least be a start for them to understand each other. Ei understanding that in Scaramouche POV she abandoned him and Scaramouche understanding that she thought he couldn't bear using the Gnosis and therefore decide do give him freedom. It's not going to fix their relationship with one talk but it's a start. Both get to be a better person
I usually hate exploring but I've been slowly farming chests to get lv up the Sakura tree to unlock the teapot for him. i love him and this cutscene made me love him more- now I just need to collect him and ei so that the Inazuma teapot becomes a family house for them :) Also gonna try to get yae eventually to complete the family. Pain of being f2p
yes same, once i get my boy scaramouche, I'm gonna give him all of my love!!! i don't even try to explore places but I'm gonna find chests in inazuma, level up the sakura tree and get the inazuma teapot just for him
The moment this scene started, I immediately sat up. The pain in his voice when he mentioned Ei, and the glimpse of hope he feels when first talking about his friends before his agony, man, I can't wait to keep playing! Props to the VA for nailing Scaramouche's character through and through!
i know what so much betrayal can do to a person. they shut down entirely, or they decide that they don't need anyone else and will trust no one else. they become callous and angry out of pure heartbreak, wishing things would change but knowing they won't. this results in widespread avoidance or fear of them from other people or much much worse. i too have experienced what to me feels like abandonment from so many that i thought were friends. i hope he can heal as well
Okay but his VA! I CANNOT the raw emotion I could feel in the voice is too much, Makes me love him so much more because if you can feel one’s feelings it makes such a difference. I was thinking of pulling for Cyno but nah I’m saving for this little sad lad here, my team will make him happy
i love him so much. U can tell how innocent he was before. He cried when the gnosis was put inside him, showing him as “too fragile”. He got abandoned by his mother, “betrayed” by niwa (not actually but he didn’t know that) and lastly his best friend / even family member died of the same illness that haunts his past cause of the mikage furnace. He was described as “happy and loved everyone” and he wanted a human heart. In his story it says he put so much effort to take care of the child, going out and getting food for that child, helping his illness. And he even did a happy dance when he made that sword. Shows how pure he was back then. It’s literally amazing (in a bad way) how even in fiction, life can turn the purest of characters into bitter ones. He has to be one of the purest genshin characters before all his trauma, and thankfully he’s now not nice but at least he isn’t evil anymore.
Genshin has the perfect opportunity to introduce an interlude chapter where Scaramouche and Ei meet again and talk things out. I think its something they both need and it would be amazing to witness. A lot of growth could come from both and we would only need to be a bystander and get them to come face to face
DUDEEE this backstory made me cried, i felt scara's pain and the way he got betrayed i just cant-😭😭 Finally he got his own cutscene and he deserves it 🥹
I really hope not, I like scara just the way he is. Don't ruin his freaking character what's the point if he becomes plain like other characters. Istg.
I cannot keep rewatching this I lost count this is so tragic, so sad and yet wholesome but despite how many times I have watched this, the part where Scara said "....My mother" still broke my heart every single time. The way he says it, the sadness he shows in his voice is just like he is in pure pain and is about to cry. It gave me goosebumps Hoyo will have to make him be back to a happy boi >:(
Damn, I ususally play with japanese voice acting, but this english cutscene actually demonstrates so much emotion by voice. It is probably my favourite cutscene so far.
dude the way scara said "my mother" the pain in his voice just makes my heart tight. This voice line was executed so perfectly! It gave us the feeling he felt. It is just so heart breaking.. :(
