best lantern rite to date
ganyu chant throwback 🥺
Fun fact: Dvorak was actually a real life music composer.
Istg if use japanese voice during 1:46:37 Xiao would sound more out of place and its so funny 😂 and when you choose Zhongli’s fault, he’d sound more ‘!!!!’ (Japanese voice)
1:41:30
"Don't underestimate us or else we'll create nuclear bombs and destroy ourselves" 😭
As a bit of an other languages diff, Yaoyao refers to herself by name, in the third person, in japanese, which is much cuter. Also, because of the limits of translation, the rhymes Hu Tao spits out in the eastern languages sound a lot more neat, punchy, and put together than in english. It's not bad in our language, but it's just better enough in the other languages to mention. This was my first experience with Lantern Rite, so I don't have a standard for these, but as a dude who picked the game up at launch, I'm just upset that I missed out on it twice. Thanks for being based bwaap, it made catching up on all your content kinda worthwhile.
in case Bwaap missed it, Vlad and Nadia was slipped in during Madame Ping's "solo" on the lower right of the screen. They also appeared again in the new animated video.
He's no longer the archon. He quit.
Venti made it his mission to out zhongli it was hilarious, had to get away and meet up with kazuha before zhongli had the chance to make a comment 😭
I watch all of your videos man
I think Paimon's nervousness about being left behind is trauma from the Sumeru quest.
People say they were waiting for the bunny year to release yao yao
1:49:07 Did you know that if you chosed zhongli instead of venti, xiao will yell at you?
59:43
I can't believe I never got this chest until this moment
And ironic that her disciple Yao Yao would save the descendent of the one she saved
I lost it when Cloud Retainer said the Xiao Lanterns from Liyue Harbor are elementary 😭😭😭 She’s really competitive its cracking me up 😂😂
paimon the god of time ?
madame ping #1 zaza plug
I have high hope for Fontaine's drip market
Paimon: I am the best guide
Doesn't help at all in any region. Instead she gives a full food documentary on "nascent" bamboo shoots.
MHY: I gonna show you the story of Guizhong
Me: ok, so you gonna show me how Guizhong looks like?
MHY: Yes, and no(Shows Guizhong, Cloud Retainer, Ping)
Me:(Scream inside)
At exactly 33 min:
Ganyu: But the tune was allegedly so wonderful that the drowning man forgot about everything else, even his own impending death, and only came to his senses after being brought to shore…
Me: Barbatos pretending to be a woman. He's really fast and he's soooo good at singing and playing music.
Paimon’s still growing. Just more wide, not tall
Still love how Xiao keeps a special eye on Traveler whenever they’re in Liyue. Just as Venti said, “May the Wind protect you, Traveler”
Dvorak’s Ancestor: Help help I’m drowning!
Music: 🎶
Dvorak’s Ancestor, no longer struggling and slowly sinking: damn this is fire
It never came across my mind that it was Venti that scammed Dvorak for wine HAHAHA
1:06:16 BOI YOU MISSED ANOTHER CHEST
Cloud Retainer looks a lot like Fu Hua Azure Empyrea from Honkai, nice
idk but i kinda think hu tao held the dinner to recreate the atmosphere of zhongli's old banquet with the adepti and guizhong.
Theory: what if guizhong is actually Sandrone (7th Fatui harbinger)?
1. Her name “SANDrone” like how guizhong was the god of dust.
2. Both like mechanics e.g. Sandrone is seen sitting on a ruin guard and is implied to have been the creator of katheryne.
3. Their hair styles are the same(ish)
If this theory is true Sandrone’s backstory is probably gonna be “When i was defeated, my friends… the Geo archon… they…they…left me… in the DUST.” (Pun intended) also watch dottore/pierro be the ones who found her body and revived her (maybe dottore told her that they left her to die or something like how he did with scara)
The way ping talked about guizhong I’m gonna sob
Hoyo have really been pushing Paimon's abandonment anxiety.
IT'S NOT A FORESHADOWING SURELY
i REALLY love hutao
wdym- we "arrived" at prime time of Teyvat cuz dem Gnosis are getting taken left and right xD
I wonder why they gave so many dead characters good designs
Cloud Retainer looks awesome in human form!
One or tow years ago , if i recall corretly there was a woman and her daughter doing this flying lantern thing ! It is forbidden here but they didn t know or cared ! Anyway that lantern flew and landed in a Zoo ( i think it was in Krefeld ,but i could be wrong) and set the Ape house on fire burning it to the ground and killing almost all animals in there! Needles to say they faced charges after that !
51:49SMASH
They put fontaine npc names like Xavier, Patrice and Bertrand and then they throw a DVORAK ?? C'mon mhy 💀
I LOVED THIS
When traveller left Paimon alone, her trauma from the Samsara kicked in LMAO
30:29
When you don't want to hear a story:
Me: Well if it wasn't for that story, we would never have seen Ganyu, or Kequing, or Ningguang, or Yelan, or Xinyan, or Yun Jin, or Hu Tao, or Chongyun, or Xinqiu, or Xiangling, or Cloud Retainer, or Moon Carver, or Mountain Shaper, or Madame Ping, or Yanfei or–I think that's it but it's still a lot.
my happiness when bwaap posts: 📈📈📈📈📈📈📈
player : this is such a sad story
ALSO player see a chest in the story cutscreen : wait, i saw CHEST , MUST FIND IT
I also hadn't opened that chest yet and had the exact same reaction to seeing it in the background lmao.
