@1713gyu @teyvattabloid You're joking, right? People hated Escoffier's design, a hate that still persists.

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@teyvattabloid I kinda remember people being super excited for Zibai since she's the Celadon Mare ><

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@furinasviolet Arle is the most lesbian character in Genshin... and this is coming from a panromantic person xD

They could have said that about any character in Genshin and I'd be like... okay, headcanon and all... but Arle???? XD no, Arle is gay

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@Its_Tina_timeVO There you go... this is Tonks, my 14yo fur baby.

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@teyvattabloid I don't know if the word "improve" is valid just because there were extremely well-written events in Genshin from the beginning.

For instance, Albedo's events were really good.

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@Genshin_HU_Info In terms of plot, I think that's the biggest improvement we got from Natlan on...

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@DripMaster303 @ratbastard06060 Also... Zhongli walked around as a woman at some point? He could be a cis guy cross dressing, but he could as easily be gender fluid. Could go either way... one is as much of a guess as the other...

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@begaydoarson @DripMaster303 I mean... Zhongli walked around as a woman at some point...? Can it get more canon than that? XD

I guess he could still be cis, but I mean... sounds very ambiguous to me...

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@DripMaster303 Canonically, Zhongli might be genderfluid. Or, at least, he was a cross-dresser... except, is it still called that if he was literally a woman? XD

Head canon... maybe Furina and Venti? Venti a trans man, Furina... something? Probably non-binary...

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@teyvattabloid There are some hints that they might be connected, but one being the other... it would be a weak plot decision. Too predictable.

Currently, I subscribe to the theory that Asmoday is sided with our twin. I wouldn't bet on it yet, but it's the most interesting possibility to me.

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@SkiniMini07 I honestly thought it was because Nilou was Flame-Mane. It fits really well.

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@miiKieran @noredemptionarc By that, I mean... it isn't even such an alien concept from Hoyo.

But again, philosophy and theology aren't everyone's cup of tea, so maybe it's freaky to most of people?

I dunno... that's the only reason I can think of for people still being in denial about this.

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@miiKieran @noredemptionarc Furina's concept is, quite frankly, familiar. The idea of a god existing simultaneously in several forms appear in many religions.

Some of these forms not being aware of the whole isn't such a common theme, but also... not unheard of.

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@LionmightMusic Not enough music theory knowledge to say which is the best. But here are some of my favorites:

1. Maidens of Sanctity
2. God-Devouring Mania
3. For Riddles, for Wonders
4. Village Surrounded by Green
5. Her Wishes

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@jawed_974 @noredemptionarc Besides many small, subtle things, because Focalors explicitly says in the Archon Quest that Furina is "'me' in human form".

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@chrisscorsese88 @noredemptionarc Also, Rukkha says she snapped the branch (Nahida) from Irminsul. She kept Nahida as a separate entity from herself, the avatar of Irminsul.

Meanwhile, Focalors still recognizes Furina as herself, and her death scene indicates their consciousness are connected (if not the same).

[Anima Nikos @AnimaNikos]

@chrisscorsese88 @noredemptionarc That's not quite the same, because Focalors was also a product of that split.

Using the analogy Rukkha used, that Nahida is a branch of Rukkha's tree: Furina and Focalors are two branches of the same tree, they are two halves of the same whole.

@Vissenoog1402 @King_0f_Sinners Exactly!

@timelyem I mean...... meta, it is not, but hell if it isn't a hilarious team comp xD
