@@Ryndia It makes me excited for his Agent Story. I didn't initially care for him much, but this demo was the most interesting one they have done so far.
@@Ryndia Yeah, i really loved it, it reminded me of Evangelion in some scenes and that's a plus. I can't believe they made this amazing demo for him (it surprises me because they are going to give 1 copy for free...) I really love ZZZ team.
A lot of people are speculating that Harumasa was lost in a Hollow when he was younger and was barely saved turning into an Ethereal, but he spent time in the hospital and as a result he was traumatized. He's afraid that he would suddenly turn into an Ethereal and start slaughtering people.
I disagree. Going based off the trailer, it looks like he was injected with something as a kid, something that may have forcibly turned him into an ethereal. We know that he has a pretty low ether tolerance, so all those pills he takes could be to fight off either the ether corruption or the effects of that injection.
@@Cat-dq1zp The injections could just be the visualization of his treatment after being rescued, it may not necessarily be that it's what turned him into an Ethereal, but rather the opposite. I definitely first assumed it was human experimentation as well when I first watched this, but OP suggests a more realistic scenario. Nothing to really say for sure yet, though, until we get his story in the game.
I think it's really cool that you can think of a lot of different scenarios based on this demo. I really can't wait to see more! I kinda get the same feel with him as a kid getting lost/ or just thrown in that situation sounds probable.
I know I'm late to this, but I only got around to it now. Dang, some crazy insight on Harumasa. I'm not used to seeing him with that face. I've been associating the deer-in-headlights look with him until now. It seems like the some of the heavy stuff ends up in these short videos. They're such a stark contrast to most of the story you experience in the game where it's more upbeat and always colorful. And every now and then we get a little peek. I suppose it's a must to watch all these character demos, huh? Like if you didn't watch the Yanagi one, you would be oblivious to... well, you probably haven't watched it yet... if all you knew was what you saw in the game. Ryn, please save this poor guy!
Yeah.. I think that's why this caught me off guard since in game, it's mostly more colourful and happy. Also, the fact that it said character demo, but this was not really a demo HAHA. I also haven't seen the Yanagi one yet D: One day, I'll go back and watch all the demos!! Harumasa fits so much on the smiley characters that I always like and are actually so fcking broken :(
Yeah, this is more of an animatic trailer than a demo, but I'm not complaining.. we did get some of his gameplay with the previous combat intel. But I'm really excited for more backstory on Harumasa now!
Did you notice that the bedroom scene was repeating itself? But each time there were less pills. Lot of 💊 at the beginning and then by the 3rd time you see the room scene the bottle is gone and he is gone...where did bro go? 🤔
@@Ryndiacould be a tranquilizer when he got rescued/found out turning into an ethereal in the past? But it was also self-inflicted? Am confused but also excited for his story
Whooooooaaaa this Character Demo is pretty heavy. Also I like his weapons, a combination of a bow and katanas. It gives him the flexibility of range and close combat. I like this attention to the detail
YES YES YES. His gameplay looks super fun! And we are getting him for free so that's a bonus \o/ But the mood of this demo really caught me off guard...
My speculation is...he was exposed to ether corruption when he was young, or he had been experimented to become a mutation of Ethereals. Coz Hoyo loves corrupted chars like Himeko & all other HI3 chars that have been possessed by Herscherrs...Even Cocolia & Acheron from HSR, and many chars from Genshin like Arlecchino, Xiao, Shenhe, Carter, Jakob, & Chasca.
You know, I'm going to be honest, I don't think he is okay. Just a bit of speculation on my part though.
@@TheDarkinSalad you know what, I agree with you. Just a feeling xD

Loved your reaction, this was such an amazing character demo.
Thank you for watching! Caught me by surprise! The animation was fantastic and the mood was really felt.. ;o;

Thanatos Harumasa foreshadowing
h-he'll be ok... ;o;

@@Cat-dq1zp I wouldn't put human experimentation off the table.

Experimentation is also probable but gosh that would hurt me so much :(

This is definitely the heaviest char demo to date, tho some of the teasers have hit as hard or harder (S11, yanagi)
not usually the job of a demo tho

@@Boomdizzle99 I DID!! AAA WHERE ARE YOU AND WHAT HAPPENED 😭😭😭
I feel like all the ZZZ female players are going to, "I can fix him" kinda vibe.
@@drzero7 I know I can't, he has to fix himself, but I will be there to give him a big hug 😭
Bro is not ok. Unfixable
Hopefully, he gets better with time... please hoyo? ;o;
feels like he belongs in psycho pass
Ryn, if you want him to feel any bit better, you have to get him his wengine. Food for thought.
@@Rorenjo you know what, you are so right. I HAVE to now o7
It looks like he has a lot of trauma monkaS. This character demo went hard
IKR. That injection.. what was it?! And all the meds :(
