She's open wide breedable and I cant blame anyone, Artist, actor anything for that. Personality lonely, Which she gets depressed of it. She open wide lets you touch her hair. She thinks herself as A operator that brings death behind her (Which is a lie for Gigachad Rhodes "LANDSHIP" since they cant reach something that is constantly moving) Voice actor did the God's work. Artist did the God's Creation. Arknights did the- We still cant marry with ops yet :[
So canonically before Gladias appears Her friends where a sleeping crazy nun, a extraverted horse girl and an amnesiac Kyaing medical professional......that is just sad
One of my favorite voiceline in this game is high trust Skadi confessing how she equates/compares the bath in Rhodes Island to her home, how vast the ocean is. It feels so sad and melancholic but at the end it feels like she's also hoping that she can go back or meet someone from her homeland.
Still like the fact that she's one of the Canon lovers or Ops that liked the Doctor. Her story is full of many tragedies, but having Doc kinda makes her comfortable to talk and being sentimental together is a happy moment for her. Although that's also her biggest tragedy based on her alter form.
There's nothing to suggest it's necessarily romantic, not like say Angelina who flat-out states she has a crush on the Doctor. Doc has a soothing, almost therapeutic temperament, and the trust mechanic reflects their ability to help others open up to them. It might have something to do with what they are, which could explain why Vampire Sarkaz want to suck their blood, but more likely it's just a product of their kindness and empathy. They're evidently a very healing, nurturing person, a doctor in every sense of the word. This is why they were put in charge of helping Skadi break out of her shell, not because she's romantically predisposed to them.
@@psl6145 if a girl who talks about her home and then let you touch her own hair and even teaches you to sing, then what part is not romantic. Although, she's a 80-90 percenct in love of Doc category compare other certain ops. And then there's, her Skalter Form. A small fact is that if it involves the doctor, Skadi puts effort in her mission report rather than just write out "Mission Completed" or something in her usual mission report. And another in under tides event, there's a small scene in Rhodes Island where had a conversation with an NPC medic where she says about a Doctor, Skadi Smiled, just a tiny bit but there's a smile. But only for that smile to gone immediately when the npc medic meant Kal'tsit. There's a reddit post of that part.
Normally I don't get emotional when it comes to voicelines, but I genuinely do feel sad when reading her voicelines because I feel so bad for Skalter. There's just something very saddening and tragic about them and the VA sells it really well
@@adiardhito9657 considering IS3 was pointed as Another timeline, probably the canon timeline won't go that way, Specially now that aegir make contact with the other civilizations on Terra
Slyhe's legacy has come so far it started from one guy appreciating Skadi with bugcat stickers to spreading to other game's fandoms that include Rina Satou's characters
Come to think of it, Abyssal Hunters are basically Claymores from the Claymore manga/anime series. Same idea of fusing the hunters with parts of the hunted
@@deadrottenbird Another genius showed up... I'm telling what the Claymore even say themself in the story: The Claymore offers herself to a man wanting to rape her telling him that her body is monstuous. It's not my personal taste, it's what the story tells.
Some people like to compare Skadi’s personality to a piece of bread but I beg to differ, she’s the *whole damn bakery* lol Her story, as well as the other abyssal hunters, goes really deep and we still have so much more to learn about them. God bless Arknights and it’s amazing story/characters! 🙏
I'm still salty if what HG did to her tho. Why did they had to make her alter like that? After all of those revelations, I finally realize what is the meaning of her alter's victory line. "So, this is what you will treat me too (as enemy)? If it's what you want, then I don't mind it". Why... why don't they just give her a normal alter? Not a sad alternate reality version of her?
@@justawanderingoldman7699tbf, it was their first 6* Alter, and they were probably testing the waters. Same as Ch'en alter, they wanted to know exactly what the players would want. Though, not to worry, since SN doesn't seem to be the end of the story and SPOILER Discovered Terra 3.0 showed Aegir finally contacting the land people of Terra... She will get more screen-time.
Skadi is a Actually Dolphin. Well they call it Orcas. Which EXTREMELY SOCIAL Whale sized Dolphins, Which hunt in Packs and attacking all TOGETHER. Thats one of the reasons why she feels lonely after loss of many hunters. She doesnt want us to get envolved with her since she know herself as walking catastrophe, But let us touch her hair though, She says this as open wide as Secretary. Which this trust is rare sight. You as Dokutah, not touched many things, Probably skadi is one of the first operators you touched. (Not counting the Kal'tist and Amiya, Since Kaltist is litterally your CEO, and Amoya is being our lil Donkie! 5:40 OH THATS WHAT WE DO AS DOKUTAHS!? Also I think she only speaks to Dokutah and Kal'tist I think. Kaltist only for the "Specter" and Dokutah... Welll... AS Dokutah.
What really gets me is, that Sakdi and Specter used to be just regular aegir people. Don't know how willing they were to become abyssal hunters or if they were drafted because things got too bad with the seaborn. Skadi might have become a singer and Specter a mason.
The Abyssal Hunters is a reference to Bloodborne's hunters no doubt but Ulpianus seems to resemble an Abyss Watcher from Dark Souls 3 more than his peers. Must be the hat.
Very good video. I got a vague feeling from under tides that skadis personality was very different compared to what players thought of her and now i can confidently say i was right. Just how she reacts when ulpianus is mentioned in the current event is enough of a tell for that. Gladia even has to remind her that hes not working with them but has his own plan
I never stopped to see Skadi's story, all i knew about her is how she was so annoying in the Grani and the knights event, all the time she acted so careless with the others around her that i really despised her because of that, during the middle to the end on that event almost everything bad happened because of her But after seeing this video, i am shocked to know that she was basically suffering from survivor's guilt all along
Yeah, that's definitely Survivor's Guilt. Something tells me that's the favorite mental condition of the writing team. But looking at The Corrupting Heart's interactions with the Dokutah, something tells me the "Kyaa" worked a bit too well.
Only in Arknights: "We start our story with her whole family being ripped apart by sea monsters." Seriously I know its a war torned and diseased world, as well as dealing with ferocious sea monsters, but Jesus Arknights...
Finally. Not someone rambling about why Skadi is an overrated wifu. Skadi has a very sad backstory. If you actually read all the files and event stories you'll understand eventually
Dokutah & grani activity and canonically convers with skadi at rhodes island ( voluntary or not), so shes only 92% loner. Also sk'alter smile must be protected!😤
Thank you for the video! Interesting lores these abyssal hunters have, I really enjoy your AK videos and ngl your kal'tsit video is the major reason why I picked up arknights again lol. I look forward to your next video!
YES I needed this. Defo wanted to learn more about her and after seeing this, fr need to kyaa her and help her out man 😔🙏 🧡🧡🧡 Her story really is tragic and interesting; would love to see more of her moving forward in the game and pray that she stays sane (or keep whatever's left of that sanity) Ishar'mla.......
OK, so Laurentina get her own video, skadi also got her own video, and Ishar-mla will also be covered in a video. The question is WHEN MY GIRL GLADIIA WILL GET SOME LOVE !?
Being my 1st 6* Operator in Arknights I'm very invested to her and the Abyssal Hunters... I love her as a character so much...I wish HG can do justice about her actual strength tho ngl...
You madlad. Destiny's tip of the top soundtrack is somewhat perfect and Jesus if it took me back to that single mission brutally. It's so perfect that the inital part of the old initial Destiny campaign, so filled with melachony sorrow and loneliness, is now sharing her background with Skadi's past
I have to admit, for a character who doesn't strike me as "intended to be cute" by her art, her gameplay animations are oddly adorable (goes to both Skadi Guard and Skadi Bard)
Skadi and other Abyssal Hunters had chances to go back to their home land but decided not to because....trauma, the trauma they have is bigger than their nostalgia.
yikes after seeing some spoilers of is3 imagine how much guilts she will feel if she know that she with the seaborns kinda kill every living things on terra except the doctor
That's basically her alter form. I think her alter form haven't completely taken over yet as her lines still shows how she cares of others and how she is okay if we, the dokutah, decides that she is a threat and want to eliminate her. Unlike other seaborns who abandon their human feeling fully become one with the seaborn hivemind will
Now I understand the kya skadi thing am really cry that hearing skadi backstory is that skadi see her mother, grandmother and her little sister getting ripped apart right in front of her is really fucking sad I feel bad for her how much she been through those bad time Oh yeah quick spoiler alert I don't have her yet ingame but I hoping I can get her somedays if I get her I will say kya to her ^^
other than ishar-mla i hope you do a vid on gladiia as well preferably gladiia video first then an entire video on a quick summary on all 3 + ishar-mla
