One thing about this fight I think about, is that people see when arle goes ultra instinct and complain how she suddenly powered up, but if you watch the fight carefully... Arle is always way stronger than "Mother" in terms of pure power, and flings her around multiple times. If you pay attention to the movements, she spends most of the fight on the offensive, getting deflected and chasing after Mother, who is narrowly parrying her strikes and running away trying to find an opening, which is when she blasts arle by taunting her into a reckless attack. It's insane to me how well thought out that sequence is just as a choreographed fight.
I’m glad you pointed this out… I’d also like to add the subtle work on “Mother” and her facial expressions. She’s trying to project arrogant confidence, but watch her face change into surprised struggle every time she’s blocking Arle’s attacks. She’s trying to be wily, but Arle is putting real pressure on her. Also, Arle’s power up is really coming from her embracing the curse on some level… her arm is almost completely covered when she goes for the final blast. She’s also using the anime trope of powering up from the spirits of others, I think… Clervie definitely because of the flower, but I’ve felt like the children’s chorus kicking in is Arle basically becoming the agent of revenge for all of the children of that cursed House.
For context, Clervie definitely stabbed herself, probably after handling Arle the blade. When she falls, we still that the sword is still through her abdomen, while Arle's hands are down and she's holding her own sword. And judging by the shape, she came to fight "Mother" using Clervie's sword. Sadge. It would also explain the "I'm sorry" from Clervie (having broken the promise to go see the aurora).
This is at best conjecture based on what's likely just animation errors. But at least it's better conjecture than "mother shot an ice spike through her"
I've also seen someone point out that Clervie looked clean and healthy, while Arle already had blood on her person. It could be that Arle and Clervie teamed up during the battle between oprhans, which would make the final so much more cruel, because Arle could've tried protecting Clervie the whole time. Would also explain the 'thank you'.
@@crazykim What kind of problem do you have? Theories are made and some are wrong, that's just how it is. Doesn't mean everyone has to stop making theories and "stupid" is very subjective in this case. What baffles me however is that you came back 5 days later, just to insult.
@@Naynin My problem is that a large and/or very vocal portion of the Genshin community has been downright excessively volatile about this since the animation dropped. Not only is it personally annoying to see blatant misconceptions spread like they're facts regardless of context, but because of the scale of this community it's pragmatic to take the excessively wrong ones down a peg when given the opportunity. Theorizing is all well and good, in fact it's great fun in most cases, but the sheer confidence and toxicity about this particular matter has been baffling.
I was like "How does he not know that Arlecchino isn't wearing gloves?" and then I remember he doesn't do world quests so he most definitely doesn't know about Caterpillar.
To be fair (and a tad cynical)... It's only good business for your newest character to also be your favourite. They're the one that's supposed to earn you money!
@@Talyrion It's not like that Ayaka and Xiao were the first characters in Genshin that's why they get more attention on the other hand, not taking into account that Arlecchino is a Raven expy, she could have received the same treatment as Wanderer, which is more than normal but not to the point of getting an animated short
Is not that she was weak, Arlechino is just that strong, I mean she was literally using ultra instinct at the end of the fight and kicked her to the roof with super strength.
The Mother was also the previous number four as well I believe, so Arle in her MID-TEENS (From the looks of her) killed the possible former #4 harbinger simply by deciding to embrace her curse (rather than fearing it), dishes out a single kick that most likely shattered all Mother's ribs, literally imbedded her in the ceiling about 50ft up and then proceeded to use ONE blast that levels then entire grounds in about a 100ft to 200ft radius... Yeah no this gal ain't human in the slightest an I'm so here for it!
her friends necklace is the same flower “mother” prunes down. also the same flower which will be arlecchino farming material which is interesting yet sad.
I feel like this might be part of that Ufotable anime collaboration that was teased a while back. Iirc it was never officially stated that they were gonna make an actual series, just a long-term animation project
I feel like I have explained this toa thousand different people by now. Arlecchino does NOT actually have a Curse, she was born with a special power that came in the force of flames, which she is unable to use without burning herself, her skin turning black is a sign of her burning her skin to charcoal. It was called a curse because it was more detrimental than beneficial before she gained her Vision. In fact, her second phase in her boss fight is her using those flames at the same time as her Vision, because unlike the other Harbingers, she does not NEED a Delusion to get her power boosts.
what a truly amazing , insightful, thought provoking, astounding, eye opening, inspiring reaction from this handsome , tall, gorgeous, fantastic, role modeling, absolute specimen of a man
Arlechinno curse we got nothing. But there are theories since theres a world quest npc named caterpillar/carter thats got the same hands. Those theorycrafters go ham on it.
This animation is what solidified my theory that Arlechinno is a Fu Hua variant, especially the music. It sounds so similar to Rubia, and her fighting style is also really similar. They even have similar hairstyles lol.
@@justsomeguy727 it’s not that I’m saying they’re the exact same, she’s definitely her own person, I’ve just played both honkai games along with Genshin so finding connections between them is really interesting for me. Fu Hua is one of my favorite Valkaries, so seeing a new character in Genshin that resembles her has me very excited!
@@22emeralds32while I agree- shes much closer to Natasha/Raven then she is to Fu Hua I've been screaming for MONTHS that she's probably Raven' variant
@@Tfbrave … I completely forgot about Raven. That’s a really good point, I was thinking more along the lines of how Fu Hua viewed her students, HOW DID I FORGET THE LITERAL ORPHANAGE OWNERS I’m such a fake fan. *cries* /hj
@@22emeralds32 it's a little easy to miss since Raven and Mei are the only Honkai impact characters to have variants in both Genshin AND Star Rail as of now As for Arlechino being Raven's variant: look at her outfit when she almost killed Furina and tell me she doesn't look almost Identical to Raven Her backstory just cemented my opinion of her being Raven's variant Besides, the amount of parallels between Raven and Arlechino is shocking once you actually start thinking about it
we get daddy aventurine then we get daddy arlechinno then mommy crucabena. crucabena was powerful i think but she just underestimate arlechinno. i made my friend watch this and analyse it like an english teacher lol. when the house explode, i thought it was a cupcake lol
Also that kid doesn't have Freminet's adorbs freckles. So yeah, not the same kid. Either that kid is a hint of a future character or it's just...a stand in for all the kids Arlecchino adopted.
Hey CyYu, are you the same person that did the vocals or instrumentals for the We.B covers/songs? I remember listening to the Ultimate Battle theme from DBS and was blown away at how good the vocals were and just noticed that it said "CyYu" as well so idk if it was just some very strange coincidence...but yeah it was really good if so!
No ufotable didnt do this, nor mihoyo anime. It was a DS... studio, the one who made the xiao splashart recently. And if it was ufotable, the animation would really have been god tier. I am really rehyped for the genshin anime then, I heard that it will even be done by those behind the second season of demon slayer( and as such nozomu abe goat)
Clervie’s Mom is Crucabena,The red haired woman that Arlecchino killed.Clervie was hurt by her Mom at one point,Which is why Arlecchino asked do mothers usually argue with their daughters?
A couple things Cyyu, 7:49 how did you not know this? It’s almost been a YEAR since people figured that out. 9:34 Pierro’s ALWAYS sounded like that. Cmon Cyyu your slacking.
Ah yes. Discrediting the writing team so you can pretend only Shaoji knows how to write despite the fact that dude is mediocre. Awesome. Very cool and totally not disrespectful to the actual people who worked on the story. I can't stand honkai players man... They pretend they're somehow NOT as bad as genshin fans, meanwhile they say shit like what you say lmfao
@@ashrafhakim379I've seen this shit so many times now. People acting like Shaoji had to come over and teach genshin how to write a story. It's INSANELY rude and disrespectful towards the actual writers. They don't care though. They think they're being funny and will just go "it's a joke teehee" to avoid any form of criticism.
Who cares either way. It's not like having blood or not makes things better or worse. Anybody who thinks it objectively does make things better is just a closeted edgelord lmao I've played so many games that don't show much blood, if any at all, and they're still some of the best pieces of fiction ive played. Persona 2 is a prime example. There is like two showings of blood on a character's portrait and that's it. Both are only for a single cutscene too, yet that game's story still goes harder than many stories / games that have blood more commonly.
Not really. You just allow yourself to have warped expectations for some strange reason. That's entirely a you problem, not a fault of the animation nor the game itself.
@justsomeguy727 Warped expectations? How so? I'm not sure you understand what I'm even saying. I'm saying that seeing a playing character be this strong for an animation makes them underwhelming to play as because they're never that strong.
“When we grow up-” has literally never been said before something good happens
ong the moment they said that i was like "well ive watched enough anime to know where this is going"
It was clear that she dies quickly afterwards

I thought so too, so I wonder why her SQ rrevealed she was actually less powerful than Mother
maybe she was stronger because of the delusions?
Ha! The dead spider really said: "I'm coming for your ass, CYYU!" 3:36 😂
It's kinda funny how Arlecchino's "mother" has that dead mom hairstyle
MiHoYo being MiHoYo is likely well aware of the trend.
For context, Clervie definitely stabbed herself, probably after handling Arle the blade.

Arleccino seriously kicked her butt... With a huge emphasis on "Kicked." 😂
It felt like the 3rd Naruto movie when rock Lee was fighting that evil ninja. That's the energy I felt
I expected her to cough BLOOD after a blow that strong
@@elimDBZThat’s what Chisaki felt after going toe to toe with 100% Deku
As soon as I saw the title I clicked
Real
Same
I was gonna click it anyway but when i saw
"Raise me daddy" i was intrigued about CyYu's reactions
REAL
We were all waiting for this reaction the moment the videos have been uploaded
The woman Arle was fighting was the previous Knave, so a Fatui Harbinger got humiliated and killed by a Teenager 😭
Erin Yvette slaying this character. Shout out to any Afterparty or Oxenfree fans
Erin slayed playing Oceanid girl during 3.8, now she's slaying playing Daddy Knave.
Her duality, man.
I was like "How does he not know that Arlecchino isn't wearing gloves?" and then I remember he doesn't do world quests so he most definitely doesn't know about Caterpillar.
I dont think those two are related. Caterpillar also doesnt age while being way older than Arlecchino.
Well that's the biggest biggest red flag I've ever seen
Sir CyYu called it
Arlecchino is Hoyo’s new favourite child I swear-
I think you mean Genshin's
Hoyo has a lot of characters between HI3, GI, and HSR
For Honkai is the trio
For Genshin Xiao, Ayaka, Arlecchino
For Star rail Dan, Acheron

the fact that the fight scene's music deadass sounds like a NieR style soundtrack and Arleccino looks similar to a younger 2B, perfect!
Do you think?
THIS IS PEAK CINEMA RIGHT THERE! This animated short feels like a box office movie that can get a crap ton of nominations and even winning awards 👏👏👏

Is not that she was weak, Arlechino is just that strong, I mean she was literally using ultra instinct at the end of the fight and kicked her to the roof with super strength.

her friends necklace is the same flower “mother” prunes down. also the same flower which will be arlecchino farming material which is interesting yet sad.
