They're Only Human- [FONTAINE ANIMATIC] Genshin Impact 

This has SUCH a different meaning now. This deserves a remake after the completed archon quest.

You do know that you predicted: 1) Furina walking on water; 2) The courtroom getting flooded; 3) Furina’s encounter with the Knave and her assassination attempt; 4) Furina being MORTAL (hence the blood)

Only human... that aged well

This song feels like it was BUILT for Fontaine I swear

NAH I DIDN’T EXPECT THAT ENDING.

I love how Furina turns into water in this animatic when in the game she’s literally like “ppl can’t turn into water haha” 😂

Now I'm tempted to make a Genshin team called "Only Human" With Focalors Neuvillette and Arlecchino in honor of this beautiful animatic.

After playing the 4.2 archon Quest... Seeing Furina say "they are only human" sounds ironical

THIS IS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL ANIMATIC BUT I DID NOT EXPECT THAT ENDING OMG

this is SO cool

I honestly love the way you presented Furina. Just from watching her actions you can kind of tell she has a childish like sence of justice something you'd read from story books (you can even tell when at the end of the fight she treats it like a duel and not a battle emphasising her shock from the surprise attack more. Also I feel like she only sees the world in black and white so she has a single minded sense of justice ( this could also be shown though her eyes which are black and white). All in all this is amazing and I absolutely love it :)

It’s so fascinating how so many people were sure Neuvillette would be a villain. I honestly love the pre and post patch characterizations because this is amazing

honestly, i love that this would actually happend and Neuvillete would just be like ''Lady Furina, please be refrain from singing OUT LOUD during trail''

OK BUT ALSO THE FACT THAT THEY SAY”There’re only human!” REALLY ADDS UP TO FOCALORS BEING A GOD AND THE THEORY NEVUILETTE BEING A HYDRO IS JUST A CHERRY ON TOP😭🤚

The fact that now in the game is confirmed that Arlecchino DID TRY to assassinate and would have assassinated Furina if she had the gnosis

Surprisingly accurate to the characters!! Given the characters the song was made for, I didn't think this would work, but Neuvillette's cluelessness on human behavior, and Furina's "interesting personality", this worked REALLY well! And obviously the animatic was gorgeoussss

THAT ENDING HIT LIKE A TRUCK LOVELY ANIMATIC THO, GOT CHILLS

this feels like if focalors didn't continue with her plan and ended up leading fontaine as herself, yet eventually driven insane by the prophecy and externalizes it by gradually lessening the value of human lives in her eyes. arlecchino which senses the gnosis in focalors also leads to her to settling it with less savoury ways. all in all truly amazing work!

THIS AGED SO WELL

AHHH ITS FANTASTIC!! I got literal chills when Arle and Furina were fighting lol. Fontaine is gonna be amazing, I'm especially excited for these characters!

god, every lyric just hits the nose on the focalor-furina situation. this song definitely fits her backstory.

DUDE.... THIS IS ABSOLUTELY FUCKING FABULOUS! I *especially* love the beat combined with the diamonds stabbing Neuvillette in the back at 1:32. absolutely perfect timing, and all of this??? god i hope this is what their relationship is like, it would be great. 1000/10 pal, this is amazing!

This hit differently after 4.2 quests OMG

Even knowing that Nuvillete was actually a really caring character the lyrics still match really really really well

In retrospect after the release of the archon quest, I feel that Focalors (the archon) would have sang the part of Furina in this animatic. Someone who doesn't quite empathize with humans, yet still watches over them as if they were her children. The more I listen the more it fits 😭😭

You predicted that furina will walk on water

dang, predicting arlechinnos attacks months in advance is impressive.

I love how Furina is enjoying herself the entire time, until the very end.

As someone who has actually finished the quests we have for the area, this honestly fits. It works, in my opinion. Edit: After finishing the entire set of quests for this nation, this hits so much harder-

This is Furina putting up her act kinda good job

NO BECAUSE I WAS SO SO SO HYPED FOR THIS AND YOU DELIVERED!!! THE SLIGHTLY BORED EXPRESSIONS OF OTTER MAN?? THE INSANITY OF FOCALOR?? AND OF COURSE MY BELOVED ARLECCHINO YOU SERVED SO WELL I CANT

SPOILER WARNING Anyone else revisiting this animatic after the release of 4.2 Archon Quest and just realizing how incredibly ironic this song is for Furina?

This aged. Ironically. Very ironically.

THAT ENDING WAS SO UNEXPECTED BUT IT WAS ALSO SO GOOD

Spoilers: and for those who wanna know without spoilers, jsut me whining about the quest being sad :] I am here to avoid myself from bursting into tears by the quest :( It was terribly sad :[ I agree with neuvilette when he said, "Focalors you are a devious one" because oh my GOD, furina did not deserve that at all, she was just a normal human after all suffering that?! i can't Imagine it update im back n sobbing. I mean, the idea of a mere human, being dropped into a whole new world, unaware of much things, quickly having to adapt to a responsibility, not being able to tell a soul, how lonely must that have been?.. I really love her story,

Considering the ending of 4.2 “they are not human” has become even more ironic

Watching this before and after completing all of Fontaine’s archon quests is an experience

Coming back to this after Fontaine (yes I just now finished I'm lazy) it's kinda crazy how well this fits with furina's acting as a god

NO CUZ FURINA HAVING A GOD COMPLEX AND BOTH NEUVILETTE AND HER LOOKING DOWN ON FONTAINE CUZ OF THEIR EMOTIONS WOULD'VE BEEN SUCH A GOOD PLOT

Plot twist on plot twist😳😳 I liked the fact that everything is dynamic here. It was also funny to see Neuvillet and Furina in the same position as the human dolls at the beginning of the video✨✨

After the completion of the Hydro Archon saga this has aged like fine wine, I'll tell ya what! *chef kiss🥰

The fact that you actually predicted the future

Part of me wishes Furina actually was the hydro archon so she could pull off these sick water tricks in game cutscenes

I'm doing the Fontaine's Archon Quest right now, I'm still on act 1 but oh my your animatic is giving everything I wish for this region. I'm utterly in love with Furina's personality, both in your work and in the game. As a French, I'm very proud that my culture inspire and attract so many people, I hope everyone has a pleasant stay in Fontaine !

coming back to this after the 4.2 story quest ....

I don't think I have enough words to describe how much I'm amaze by this animatic ! EVERYTHING IS BUILT SOOOO PERFECTLY. I'm in love with 'Death Note Musical' especially this song, so the combination with Fontaine (and how the region is so theatrically coded, turning everything into entertainment) is well found ! I'd seen a headcanon tiktok about Furina's reaction if someone disrespected her at court or dared to challenge her and her autority and I was like "damn, I NEED to see a badass Furina in complete harmony with and over waters". YOU DID IT : she's seems to be one with the element and that's sooo enchanting and wonderful ! She knows how to play but also fight with it and and it's totally in line with her personality. Your work on the plans and compositions is MIND BLOWING

I WASN'T EXPECTING THE END

Now i want a neuv and furina dancing cutscene

I DONT EVEN PLAY GENSHIN IMPACT BUT THE ANIMATION FOR THIS WAS SPLENDID. GOOD JOB!!

the way this is fitting to the story of Fontaine right now... Neuvillete is always trying to understand humans despite being around them for so long and he still can't grasp some human ideals (the scene at the end of chapter 4 act 2 shows this) while Furina uses humanity as entertainment. hope what you predicted with Arlecchino is correct because that would be sick!

WATCHING THIS AFTER THE QUEST IS…oh my gosh. I think I love it more now?

Arlecchino truly just went hi Also this animatic's existance proves the law of this song being there for all fandoms (I don't think I saw any animatics for genshin with this one anyway) Also Neuvillette is not paid enough to deal with any of this

Ironic, isn't it?

Folacors dying like the queen would be too Honkai for Genshin

ya know Furinas and Neuvillettes characterization in this Isn't too far off from the actual game. Give or take a 7/10 Accuracy well done.

This hits different now that 4.2 is out. It just makes me so sad 😢

I cannot explain how many times I've watched this! Its amazing, I LOVE the way Focalors walks on water and shoves Neuvillette with the water, its genius and beautiful to watch! I also love how playful and kind of insane looking Focalors is!

This still works really well post 4.2, if consider the fem voice focalor instead of furina

I love this, I feel like it just suits Fontaine so well. Especially with the waltz like feel of the song. If I were to describe Fontaine I feel like it will be a dangerous waltz. Fontaine has the God of hydro and justice so behind the scenes there will be a lot of injustice and trickery.

hits different after the archon quest, but could also be seen as an au. either in which furina is the one who got the divinity or perhaps where she and Focalors refused or never split at all.

the way u just (almost) predicted archon quest part 2??? such a good animatic

I really like your Furine's "design". Especially back hair, since in the game they're way longer. I just need more female characters with short hair

And now we know Furina is only human after all

THIS ANIMATIC FITS SO WELL WITH FURINA'S BACKSTORY! No spoiler people.

I literally have watched this abt 10 times, and plan to watch it so much more, this is fabulous, thank you

FONTAINE IS COMING OUT IN A FEW HOURS! This genuinely might be the coolest genshin animatic I have ever seen. I love how Focalors shifts into water!

i got to say that this animatic actually inspired me to draw furina and neuvillette dancing. Your work is so good

This is somewhat what I expected in Fontaine with the Knave, but it turned out being something even greater than just going for a mere gnosis and chatting with an archon like previous archon quests

THAT ENDING HIT ME LIKE A TRUCK! OML I WASN’T EXPECTING IT 😂😂😂

AAAA I LOVE THE STAGING AND COMPOSITION (?) of each frame!!! The serious Neuvillette and the mischievous (?) Furina dancing together is such a beautiful scene, and then the sword fight between Arlecchino and Furina well-staged(? boarded?) as well. It’s a wonderful animatic based on the trailer❤️

given the 4.1 trailer i thought it appropriate to come back to this

Obsessed with how you draw Neuvi the whole time, but especially at 1:09

THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!!!! I love how the camera moves with the characters going around, and the ideas behind the different frames!! That and your amazing drawings, it's simply perfect!

Madam…. MADAM! YOU WERE RIGHT IN SO MANY LEVELS! YOU WERE RIGHT! Adding the last scene of Furina getting stabbed and BLEEDING! cause she is, human.

Very ironic. I still love this Animation it's a masterpice.

You did an Amazing job

pls, this animatic is living rent free in my brain

Is no one going to talk about how the puppet got decapitated by Foçalors at the beggining ??? Nobody ???

“Thinking there was someone in heaven to blame” yeah. Yeah. Celestia.

I’m so sad this isn’t how the actual quest turned out 😭😭😭

Imagine. Furina grows from a brat to an Archon at region story finale and, remembering how Childe bodied mechs in Opera, pulls dual sabers and goes all Riptide on Big Bad.

Well this aged so well didnt it LMFAO

MOVE FURINA ITS MY TURN TO DANCE WITH THAT GENTLEMAN

Furina got Rengoku-ed

Bro istg this is one of my comfort videos… like iv watched it too many times, and I saw it when it came out lol

NAH HOW IS THIS SOMEWHAT ACCURATE EVEN AFTER THE FIRST ARCHON QUEST

this aged perfectly

NAH BC THATS CRAZY THE DEATHNOTE MUSICAL POPPED UP ON MY SPOTIFY AND I WAS THINKING MAN I WANNA GO EXPLORE MORE OF FONTAINE AFTER I FINISH UP MY WORK ALSO THIS ANIMATION IS SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO AMAZING PLEAAAASE TELL ME YOUR SECRETS

They’re only…oceanids…after all…

This is amazing. It really makes me think how different the Fontaine story could have gone.

Your instagram reel introduced me to this song, thank you

dude this here tells another story that i wanna hear this story potrayal is what i expected when i arrived

Ohohoho I like this. Very well done. In the early game, zhongli (I think) says that in theory any vision wielded can become an archon. And the drop of blood after arlecchino takes the gnosis implies that farina is … *drumroll* only human

its too incredible especially with doing the arcon quest

THIS IS SO MUCH COOLER AFTER THE 4.1 UPDATE

Love the animation to this song. It would be a joy to see it in color.

Wow. Coming here post Fontaine release. This song captured Furina VERY well. Nuevillette with how he actually acts was a surprise but I loved it too. This animatic is still amazing❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

As a Genshin fan who just saw the Death Note musical in London, I couldn't be more hyped up to see this

Yes! You don't know how long I've been waiting for this after you gave us a little teaser on Instagram. I'm so happy to see the final animatic for it! :)

This caused an spell on me. I can't live a day without watching this video ❤
