There were leaks from the closed beta in 2019, I think Venti was saying he wanted to avoid running into her in Fontaine. It's old and even the pronunciation of "Foçalors" was different, so they may have changed their minds after all these years
i love how so much of her is an act that it's hard to tell who her real self is. beneath her confident and elegant allure is someone who is afraid. the scene of her hugging seymour hits so hard bc its a little peek into her vulnerabilities. i love her character so much!! good luck to those pulling for her!!
Lol elegant? More like arrogant and boisterous. I love Furina too, but the airs she puts on is really pompous and full of herself, while the real self underneath is less confident and self assured. I really love her and cant wait to pull for her since I have a guarantee.
This teaser feels so different compared to all of the teasers we have had so far! Like the movements, the mysterious yet sad vibe, the simplicity, and the intensity of what is happening! And yet as she speaks it’s so calm… almost off putting Edit: I agree that Nahida’s is the most similar in terms of how dark and sad the teasers are. But this one gives me way more chills because it shows how Furina’s personality is really just a mask and it finally breaks. Her voice also carries more emotion to me, as it sounds like she is crying. Nahida was always a kind person and kept up the personality for the whole teaser and story quest, so her teaser doesn’t show as much of a development to me. It shows that by the end she is sad, but anyone would be in that situation. Probably because she is more mature than Furina she keeps herself together and continues telling her story without crying (difference in character). This is just my personal opinion and analysis of the two so no need to take this so seriously lol
I don’t know if anyone noticed this, but if you set the slowest speed at @0:49 and look closely, you will notice that after the smiling Furina broke the mirror, her face became sadder with each “frame” and she stopped smiling. A very interesting detail that not everyone will notice
The fact that she still tries to keep on smiling even when she has no one left... Furina is absolutely beautiful in this teaser. Can't wait to pull for her!
Saved 250 pulls for her(despite loosing 150/180 pullcount for Kirara... x_x), I'll hope that's enough XD P.S. I didn't had enough for Nahida's banner so ended up skipping entire dendro element as a whole. Kirara 's only for neko-girl reasons, zero "bloom"/"hyperbloom" teams for me XD
There no grand archon like introduction but Furinas calm voice send chills down my spine... It's frightening how words messes up with your brain.. Amazing.
This teaser really gives me a different vibe than lot of the others. the way there’s a big focus on almost breaking the fourth wall is really interesting. She’s not interacting with any other characters, It’s more like she’s having a one on one conversation with someone or something.
It's crazy how many times Furina/the video alters our perception of what we are watching: 0:15 - It is revealed that the first few scenes were actually a picture slideshow controlled by Furina 0:37 - Furina is not in the real outdoors, but on stage 0:48 - All we saw was mirrored until now (this is my favourite) 0:57 - We were viewing it through a tinted lens until now 1:06 - Furina making us conscious that we are listening to a recording 1:34 - Slightly more debatable, but I think we were watching the meka hound's camera vision as she moved towards it to hug it 2:02 - Furina breaking the fourth wall (again) by staring right at the camera (us/the viewer) when she talks about deceiving fate (the gods' gaze, that only sees her weeping on her throne??) This shows the various layers of Focalors/Furina's deception and the immense complexity of her character. Bravo to the production team!
The mirror one is my favourite too! I knew something was off when I saw her darker eye on the left Also I'm pretty sure everything is the meka hound's recording as you said, since they've got cameras for heads, so it would make sense
@@waterenchantress7619 No, I don’t think she did. The prophecy did come true and that was also implied in the archon quest. It’s just that Focalors managed to change they way things happened and protected the people of Fontaine. But the prophecy was always meant to come and so it did. In this teaser Furina mentions how the fate will never deceive you(fated things will never change) unless you can first deceive fate itself(change how things happen or in Focalors’s case she deceived the heavenly principles a.k.a fate, and in that way she somewhat changed the fate of the people of Fontaine).
The scene where Furina hugs the mecha dog gave me absolute chills..It’s so sad but powerful at the same time :0 Also can we just appreciate how AMAZING the animation is!!?
cause in 4.0 4.1 Furina you saw just an acting role of her, silly young god. The other half of her is planing to save her people along. She can sees the future but when she just keep trying to solve the problem by herself she still not see the good ending way, that's why she always cries alone. She just like a lost child struggling
I literally am physically incapable of waiting another 3 days for this gorgeous, beautiful, jaw-dropping goddess to release. I have consumed all the pre-release analysises, I have watched all the theories, I have looked at all the fan art- I NEED HER. I don’t care if I shouldn’t pull for her, “why would u pull for furina???¿? you already have yelan, xingqiu, kokomi, and tartaglia u don’t need any more hydro characters” SHUT UP. she is an icon, she is the moment. I want to dress like her. I want to look like her. I want to act like her. I want to BE her. She will be mine.
I love the theme of deception and acting she has. We can't tell if she's acting sincere because she treats life like a stage and doesn't really show how she feels.
Zhongli: Cannot watch the common folk suffer. Raiden Shogun: watches the suffering of common folk. Venti: I am common folk. Nahida: I am suffer. Furina: I am a combo of it all.
Honestly. I usually used JP voices, but after redownloading for Fontaine when it released, I havent changed from EN. And damn, Furina, Neuvi, Wrio, and Navia. Props for their EN VAs, they gave life to those characters.
@@IndraD Her outfit changes depending on what arkhe alignment she is currently in. This was shown in the livestream, notice how the color of her outfit and the length of her hair changes.
Furina is by far the most complex character in Genshin, she's very unexpected and this teaser made her even more mysterious than she already is, I can't even tell atp when she is acting and when is she being her normal self.
@@Aaliyah_bigbackRaiden story was sadly one of the worst, I can't see any depth in her character, she was just traumatized from her sister's death and decided to pursue eternity in the wrong way, her story is fine but other than that nth is special abt raiden tbh
@@Aaliyah_bigbackshe doesn’t really have a complex character though- her story is quite cliché. She has a good backstory and I like her character but I just wouldn’t describe her as complex
I love how it goes changing and no one even noticed the fake scenarios, and I also love that the one Furina is talking to is a robot. I love this one, really good :D
So is everyone actually dead already?? They drowned long ago and ageria really split herself to play different roles while she took on the threat. Perhaps everything is already underwater and this is all an illusion, segment 2 (furina) is not real
"Gods may have a slim chance to change fate" said the broken vase lady in sumeru. Also heard her voice in the 4.2 trailer. Neuvillette literally said events are repeating themselves. Everyone is a dead water droplet recreation sin.
it really cannot be emphasized enough - the english voice acting for her was done so unbelievably well and is definitely deserving of an award, although, regrettably, with a game like this one it likely won't be in the conversation for such honors. Her portrayal of furinas erratic emotional states and her alternating between them so seamlessly truly made this an unforgettable experience and definitely elevated genshin's storytelling to a new high.
Oh absolutely! I was completely shocked by the sheer range the VA has - she managed to pull off Furina as an Archon, Furina being herself and Focalors with such a clear distinction while maintaining clear similarities between the three to keep them technically a one person's voice, it's actually insane. And her portrayal of emotions is also spot on. I saw a video in which the VA was saying she originally auditioned to be Eula back in the day and I am honestly so glad that she was originally turned down and ended up as Focalors instead. Eula is a great character but the VA's range would've been completely wasted had she been casted as Eula back in 2021 and we never would've known her true potential.
Fr, Furina and Raiden's VA's (Amber Lee and Anne Yatco) are my favourite. They couple portray 3 different personalities naturally whilst still feeling distinct. Really epic casting.🙌
Aaah her character teaser is SO GOOD!! "Are you and I the audience, or the characters on the stage...?" This is sending chills down my spine... Furina is such a mysterious and thrilling character and I can't wait until the next version comes out!! Good luck everyone!!!
I really love the philosophical bits across Genshins story, ahnd that line was one of the more profound ones that made me think a goud bit as far as how we perceive ourselves, others, and how we perceive those who perceive us... yeh. Loukin' forward tou this'n greatly!
I like that the trailer was in POV-mode. Because it looked like Furina was about to hug us, for she wanted some comfort. And we would definitely hug her back if we could.
Amber's voicework as Roselia from Trails of the Cold Steel, introduced her to my ears, and she is another proof that English dub is improving year by year!
@@Mainfernando1 just saying, go to that timestamp and look at her "vision" since it surely doesnt look like one nor do we have anything on her that *looks* close to it besides the circle thing on her left side, plus, Nuevi's voicelines didn't specifically say he got the Gnosis back not in the current trailers nor in *that* voiceline i believe he'll get it but same like Zhongli and Venti, a Gnosis isn't the root/core of a Gods' powers. But just like flat-eathers reaching into oblivion and being as delusional as ever not accepting they're seeing things that aren't there
Always so nervous, the archons are always consistantly the most entertaining characters, with heart put into them. She's here! As always, good luck to everyone.

The last voiceline when she says "unless you can deceive fate itself" is ominous and could be implying were going to let the prophecy come true but on our own terms so we can bait it in and stop it effectively

That is the only way actually. Go back to 2.8 with the GAA event with Mona, she specifically states that once the future has been foretold it becomes immutable. If a person is fated to die on a specific day they will die on that day no matter what she or anyone does. So this means the exact words of the prophecy will happen, Fontaine WILL flood, the people WILL dissolve, only the hydro archon WILL be left. Furina's true goal then is to find loopholes, twists and exceptions to the words of the prophecy so that when it does happen it will happen to the letter but not the spirit of the prophecy.
When I heard about the prophecy of Fontaine, I immediately think things will be similiar to Thor: Ragnarok. Let the prophecy happen, but make sure it doesn't mean everything is lost.
@@shenhe773It's a trick meant to have you notice that she is not even speaking out the words you hear, while foreshadowing how we are actually seeing her from the POV of Seymour. Not only that, but it also kind of breaks the fourth wall.
I love how in the Fontaine arc directly introduces us with their archon from the get-go (compared to other regions so far) yet we still know nothing much about Furina. Im so excited to get her!
I realized that in the beginning, there is TV static, and her eyes and hat are flipped because it's a recording she is inverted until she removes the lense that transition is so clean. It is so beautiful. I love this trailer, and I can't wait for her release.
I love how the VA slowly but surely lets her tone of voice get softer and softer to the sadish tone of voice from the high normal pitch. Her VA Is amazing and has definitely made me love Furina.
This teaser sent chills down my spine. I feel so sad for Furina, at first I thought her to be an annoying brat but as the story progress and these trailers come out I feel nothing else but pity for her. She hides her burdens with a smile, and I understand all too well.
She allways actin with her people, she become to a Idol for Fontaine bc she loves her nation and she dont want caos for the profecy and she is hidding all her emotions only for her nation and be the leader then will need to be, its beautifull see that
As a beginner in Genshin, I can say how well the writers designed Furina's characteristics and has the appearance of a princess with a melancholic yet cheerful story of her. It is sad to see how her life have been through as Archon but at the same time still a mystery in the"Masquerade of the Guilty" and her Teaser. Absolutely Love her character so much, Can't wait to get her!
You will become a good traveller among us 🎉, just don't skip story dialogues, enjoy it as if u r watching an anime, Genshin Impact's quests are sooo beautifully written, believe me u will enjoy every aspect of it, the music the visuals, the game mechanics, storyline, everything is amazing 💕
What a dang interesting character. I'm continually impressed by the nuanced and original characters Genshin comes up with, buht Furina feels like a particularly special case here on the near eve of the primary finale to Fontaines story.
Amber Lee Connors is great, voices Ms. joke on my hero academia, brandish on fairy tail, Mei Mei on jujutsu kaisen and if u have played tower of fantasy, voices tsubasa. Ntm the most recent one on Aether gazer she voices Athena
I was wondering the same thing! Based on the whole connection of practically every world quest with Seymour and the former Institute of Natural Philosophy (Alain, Ann, etc), it seems that the whole story could potentially play a big role in how Furina escapes the prophecy
“Only fate will not deceive you, unless you can first deceive fate itself.” Now I’m really curious about the truth with Furina and the prophecy. Can’t wait for Masquerade of the Guilty this coming November 8th. Hopefully they’ll be able to deliver the story well.
@@w3v3zI saw a lore video that theorized the prophecy already took place. And everyone from Fontaine is basically a Hydro idolon (the water droplet things we met in 3.8). This video in a way kinda confirms that, would be crazy if true.
The line, which by itself feels a little cheesy to me, carries alot of weight and intrigue in the context of the story inparticular to Furina's story ahnd whatever she has up her sleeve for the her grand finale here.
@@roennyh1362 the issue is that none of the fontainians are blue haired or pure hydro when using elemental sight Unless of course, there is a perfect method other than the lochfolk's imperfect method to replicate that (I mean, we're talking about archons) If the prophecy had already happened, and the current fontaine is just one giant recreated stage, then there's a huge power required to maintain that giant stage Perhaps this explains the large amount of indemnitium? Perhaps this is also the reason why the fontainian tectonic plate is raised? Perhaps the actual fontaine that was already sunk, had the same sea level as the rest of teyvat? "To deceive fate", perhaps we could actually bring back the true fontaine after the end of teyvat's archon quest through the loom of fate, I mean "The fate will be yours to re-weave"
my favourite -archon- CHARACTER in the game so far. you never know for sure if she's masking her insecurities with confidence or if she is just hiding her cards beneath a facade of incompetence.
When she was first revealed I knew I would love her. I wanted to voice her but I knew that wouldn’t happen. Amber does an amazing job. Now she’s finally here. Hoyo exceeded my expectations for her.
@@1mol831 It’s not a profession… more a dream I have. But I appreciate the thought! I honestly have a long way to go before I consider my voice ready to do something professional.
@@hysh9483 Indeed, if it's your job, you are a professional. Literally, profession. Here comes the paradox. Wrestlers taking part of olympics are called "amateur wrestlers". Even when they are so skilled and strong that they would easily defeat any "professional wrestler" in WWE. The wrestlers in WWE are called "professional" because that's their job. This also why professional boxers can not take part in olympics. Why you would never see Mike Tyson or Muhammad Ali in the olympics. They are forbidden because they were boxing for money.
Wait sudden realization but we have two shots of Furina’s face while she’s crying: In her Pneuma form (1:12), a tear falls down her right eye, but in her Ousia form (1:57), a tear falls down her left eye instead. I love all of the intricate details Hoyoverse puts into their trailers, I can’t wait to see what happens next
I am a fan of this teaser, it just shows how emotional it gets to see Furina be more of a mask, yet Focalors as the culprit, this explains why the title of our new quest is "Masquerade of the Guilty"
everything about the animation is stunning... I love everything about the stage play that's used through this video! also- I just want to say the voice actors for furina have been PHENOMENAL! I'm so excited for her release and I hope everyone who wants her gets her!

@@makatutu1 if you were so dedicated, you wouldn't be copy-pasting your messages across all these comments. you'd be typing a unique one for each and every one of them. for shame.
OH MY GOD SHE'S HAMLET. AND SHE PLAYED HER PART SO WELL SHE DECEIVED ALL OF US. I'm gonna elaborate because this has been driving me crazy and I need a place to put my scattered thoughts (this is partially based on hunches/theories so don't take it all super seriously). The entire archon quest is based on the blurred line between performance and reality, which is a major theme in Hamlet, who feigns insanity to the point where we don't what's an act and what's not. The fontainians love their charismatic archon (who also seems to have a blurred line between persona and reality) and they absolutely eat up "plays" in the form of trials. But there's a larger performance at work where all of the major players; furina, neuvillette, arlecchino, lyney, wriothesley, etc; are all trying to out-deceive each other. Furina is dismissed as someone who doesn't know what she's doing, but in the end this is what she WANTS people to think. People think they know what's going on, that they're the one manipulating the situation to their advantage, but they have no idea that they're actually playing exactly how Furina wants. It's exactly like Hamlet! As neuvillette says in the 4.2 trailer, "you're a devious one, focalors". The best part is that she's not some smug manipulator behind a chess board. In fact, she's just a emotionally volatile as her persona makes her out to be, but this complexity is what makes her character so interesting, just like Hamlet. In the end, the two of them are so desperate to try to escape fate (in furina's case, the prophecy) but their lack of taking action is their downfall. The icing on the cake would be that the prophecy has to do with the previous archon and she's trying to amend the wrongs (bc this would be so similar to hamlet avenging his father's death), but ofc none of that is revealed yet. I'm sure these parallels to Hamlet weren't intentional (I might not even be accurate in my analysis), but I'm so excited to see what hoyo has in store for us!
YOU. THIS ANALYSIS. I need to throw it against a wall. I love it. I was obsessed with Hamlet for a solid 2 months. The parallels… ohhh my gosh I love it.
Honestly Impressed with this Trailer for Furina, because evn though shes jolly and enthusiastic shes hiding her real emotions deep inside and showing us her perspective of things, just seeing this almost made me tear up with how beautiful it truly is. GL TO ALL THE PLAYERS WISHING FOR FURINA!(I might wish for her dunno just hope i get her bc i already got neve)
This PV is super unique, I really like how it highlights the duality of furinas character at the start she deceives herself by acting like she is part of an opera
Honestly, Furina is likely the most misunderstood character by Everyone from the players to the Characters themselves and it was likely all by Design. She truly is the ultimate showman.

Now i can understand it... For furina the fate of Fontaine was real because she herself was a character on the stage, making her so afraid of everyone discovering who she was.... In the end, the director of the opera was foçalors and she was the only one who knew what would happen and that's why someone then tells the traveler to play her role on the stage... Idk
Inazuma showcased physical prowess in the archon quest, Sumeru on the other hand showed us the mental tricks in the archon quest but Fontaine is a freaking roller coaster of both
I believe that when she says “Unless you can decieve fate itself” is that in the prophecy it states she herself will sit on her throwing with only herself and her tears. But in the 4.2 trailer it is heavily implied (or more said outright) she will die. So I think she is trying to prevent the prophecy by making part of it untrue.
I am so curious about Furina, and the reveal about her. Who is she? What is going on? Is this teaser hinting at her true self? Is "Furina" some kind of pre-recorded character? Did her true self plan this all the way since 500 years ago, and has been setting the stage for everything? I am really excited for this.
This was just sad and cool , I am excited for the prophecy ^^😭 “Unless you deceive fate itself” don’t that mean we will go back in time or we have to deceive it before it happens Furina hugging the mecha dog she said “I only have you” she was talking to the dog and recording it T^T
I'm thinking more along the lines of Focalors and Furina are two different people, and one is dying to let the other live but still prevent the prophecy.
I really hope we don't go back in time unless it is in a clever way, that makes 100% sense in the story. Usually when you throw in time travel in a story that wasn't about time travel in the beginning, it will feel really cheap.@@emilyjackson2055
@@abdurehmanmalik2980 doesn't irminsul only erase memories though? everything with the balladeer and rukkhadevata still happened, but everyone except the traveler forgot about them because of irminsul. unless i have something wrong
@@lum_berry111 Sort of? Irminsul more or less rewrote memories/the timeline so that things could be explained without the person who was deleted. It's not just people's memories, but also the physical memories of the world (since it's all connected via ley lines). If it only affected people's memories, then Nahida wouldn't have had to encode Wanderer's past identity into a storybook in order to remember him.
It's usually already hard enough to focus when I'm this excited, but this teaser is additionally SO complex... I didn't even realize I was getting sad until everything just escalated, what fascinating cinema, it's perfect
Yeah, I remember lots of people hating her as soon as we set foot in Fontaine. Me, I was like, this is only one side of her, we need to see the other. We’ve gotten hints about this other side through 4.0 and 4.1, now in 4.2, we will see it all, the Truth if you will. Also, “illusion” and “misdirection”. These 2 words run through my head every time we get a Fontaine trailer or Fontaine character trailer
@@rafaelmorales1475Zhongli is the only playable original archon. Nahida is Rukadvahta’s predecessor, Ei took over for her sister Makato, and venti rose to power only 300 years ago, some time after decabrian’s death. Edit: decabrian was NOT the anemo archon as has come to my attention - but rather an ancient anemo god - not of the seven.
I absolutely adore the duality between light and darkness shown in her. I wanna know everytime more and more about her the more I see her, and I just can't wait to get her already. Good luck to everyone who reads this, may the archon of Hydro and justice be at home with y'all asap!
dude i wanna give her a hug so bad- i already adore her, she's taken venti's spot as my favourite archon. I cannot wait to see her character play out more in future updates.
I remember when Furina was just a very plain 2D concept art that came out as a leak back in January, but seeing her as she is now, Hoyoverse did a great job on character building for her.
idk why but fontaine’s music really takes the cake with its story. like this particular song feels so gut-wrenchingly moving and emotional, while also having a devious undertone that you can’t quite shake. like something else can be heard amongst all the sounds. i think sumeru’s music did this well too, but it was a different feel entirely. sumeru’s music felt hopeful and lively, like a forest full of life, while fontaine’s music feels like a never-ending sea of waves that look pretty from afar, but they reveal themselves to be a huge tsunami once they start approaching.. idk man
We can only hope, seeing as Focalors is the actual mastermind and not speaking here as we saw twice before Makes one think that she is even deceiving herself
@@kiriekurashiki1028 she lied so hard that even she believed herself, untill the very last point where she finally showed her true self... amazing. She's totally an Oberon from Fate GO, an Ai from Oshi no Ko 🗿🚬
@@luisfillipebeserra2108 We don't know that for now. "Unless u can deceive fate itself" makes it seem like she intentionally let the prophecy came true, thus "deceiving" it.
It looks like a stage play. It's surreal. Also congrats to her amazing voice actress. It doesn't even feel like acting. It's like she is the character herself. Something rare to get right for English speaking VAs.
You are right. It doesn't even feel like she is voice acting because she isn't. She is just reading lines however she wants just like every other mihoyo eng dubber.
This is beautifully written, kind of makes you second guess the border line between a play and reality. It combines the two in a certain sense that's very well done.
It must've been so tough getting reminded of the prophecy all the time through nightmares. Furina needs Nahida to sing her lullaby and accompany her all night..
Tbh I can't give enough praise to amber Lee for putting so much effort into making this character. She really made furina shine in English version, English VA are upping their game ✌🏻 I hope every English VA is as hard working as itto, furina and wanderer VA
honestly all the archons have been pretty good VAs! Harlacher/Venti actually sang in the Weinlesefest event, Silverstein/Zhongli 😳, Yatco/Ei played three roles as Ei/Makoto/Shogun, and both Campbell/Nahida and Lee/Furina have been *really* good at breaking our hearts
i'm so happy hoyoverse team has come this far with their animating, you can just tell how furina is feeling and thinking through the subtle changes in her expressions!!
Who is Furina? For the blind, she is vision. For the hungry, she is the chef. For the thirsty, she is water. If Furina thinks, I agree. If Furina speaks, I'm listening. If Furina has a million fans, I am one of them. If Furina has ten fans, I am one of them. If Furina has only one fan, that is me. If Furina has no fans, I no longer exist. If the whole world is against Furina, I am against the whole world. I will love Furina until my very last breath.
I liked Furina from the beginning, . Since the act III and IV, I starter liking her even more. And as we progress into the story I am loving this character more!

Same. You can't really go wrong with hydro characters since they define all the reactions. I agree that furina is must pull because of many things, especially what u said. Furina literally 10/10 design for everything regardless of meta strength. Dont worry about if you "shouldn't pull for her".
100% agree with you. Furina will be ICONIC; she's going to make a great game even greater experience. Just to have her grace your existing roster would make the Genshin experience that much richer.
i remember anticipating the 4.2 archon quest because i really wanted to know more about furina and why she acts the way she does... i guess the wait was worth it and now we have to wait for her second story quest..
Furina can say that Archon has a rather special situation when she has another personality, Focarlos, and she is also the person behind the largest-scale play she created. as expected from hoyoverse
Even though she's so loud and the center of attention most of the time, she's still so mysterious, I love her

There were leaks from the closed beta in 2019, I think Venti was saying he wanted to avoid running into her in Fontaine.

YES SHES SO ELEGANT
i love how so much of her is an act that it's hard to tell who her real self is. beneath her confident and elegant allure is someone who is afraid. the scene of her hugging seymour hits so hard bc its a little peek into her vulnerabilities. i love her character so much!! good luck to those pulling for her!!
Lol elegant? More like arrogant and boisterous. I love Furina too, but the airs she puts on is really pompous and full of herself, while the real self underneath is less confident and self assured. I really love her and cant wait to pull for her since I have a guarantee.
i dont think thats seymour since its easy to build a mech dog toh record stuff
Elegante? You meant Arrogante 😅😅😅
@@starlette7820 Yikes my dude
thank u i’m gonna need the luck (badly i’ve won 3 50/50s in a row the likelihood of me winning again is slim)
This teaser feels so different compared to all of the teasers we have had so far! Like the movements, the mysterious yet sad vibe, the simplicity, and the intensity of what is happening! And yet as she speaks it’s so calm… almost off putting
Edit: I agree that Nahida’s is the most similar in terms of how dark and sad the teasers are. But this one gives me way more chills because it shows how Furina’s personality is really just a mask and it finally breaks. Her voice also carries more emotion to me, as it sounds like she is crying. Nahida was always a kind person and kept up the personality for the whole teaser and story quest, so her teaser doesn’t show as much of a development to me. It shows that by the end she is sad, but anyone would be in that situation. Probably because she is more mature than Furina she keeps herself together and continues telling her story without crying (difference in character).
This is just my personal opinion and analysis of the two so no need to take this so seriously lol
Nahida's teaser?
@@tacemiko3849 their endings have a very similar vibe
man really forgot nahidas and raidens trailer....like dude.
Neuvillette had an amazing trailer
Both nahida and furina teasers have a sad special vibe connected to their tragic secrets 😢
I don’t know if anyone noticed this, but if you set the slowest speed at @0:49 and look closely, you will notice that after the smiling Furina broke the mirror, her face became sadder with each “frame” and she stopped smiling. A very interesting detail that not everyone will notice
I saw that, thanks for pointing it out
The fact that she still tries to keep on smiling even when she has no one left... Furina is absolutely beautiful in this teaser. Can't wait to pull for her!

This teaser really gives me a different vibe than lot of the others. the way there’s a big focus on almost breaking the fourth wall is really interesting. She’s not interacting with any other characters, It’s more like she’s having a one on one conversation with someone or something.
She could be talking to Seymour as evidenced by her hugging it.
And the fact that she says this is just a recording playing on your head proves what you said
she wasn't breaking the "the fourth wall" she was talking to the robot dog the whole time
@@zoe_401no it was literally a recording playing in seymour’s head lmao she was talking to seymour
@@aqualight1760are all the robot meks name is seymour now?
It's crazy how many times Furina/the video alters our perception of what we are watching:
0:15 - It is revealed that the first few scenes were actually a picture slideshow controlled by Furina
0:37 - Furina is not in the real outdoors, but on stage
0:48 - All we saw was mirrored until now (this is my favourite)
0:57 - We were viewing it through a tinted lens until now
1:06 - Furina making us conscious that we are listening to a recording
1:34 - Slightly more debatable, but I think we were watching the meka hound's camera vision as she moved towards it to hug it
2:02 - Furina breaking the fourth wall (again) by staring right at the camera (us/the viewer) when she talks about deceiving fate (the gods' gaze, that only sees her weeping on her throne??)
This shows the various layers of Focalors/Furina's deception and the immense complexity of her character. Bravo to the production team!
1:34 is definitely my favourite. Furina has so many more layers than “annoying kid” I love her sm
The mirror one is my favourite too! I knew something was off when I saw her darker eye on the left
Also I'm pretty sure everything is the meka hound's recording as you said, since they've got cameras for heads, so it would make sense
Wow this was so well made indeed!
She deceives us by telling that the prophecy Will become true?
@@waterenchantress7619 No, I don’t think she did. The prophecy did come true and that was also implied in the archon quest. It’s just that Focalors managed to change they way things happened and protected the people of Fontaine. But the prophecy was always meant to come and so it did. In this teaser Furina mentions how the fate will never deceive you(fated things will never change) unless you can first deceive fate itself(change how things happen or in Focalors’s case she deceived the heavenly principles a.k.a fate, and in that way she somewhat changed the fate of the people of Fontaine).

@@koteghe7600It actually is seymour, and that submerged place is the Ordo.
So is everyone actually dead already?? They drowned long ago and ageria really split herself to play different roles while she took on the threat. Perhaps everything is already underwater and this is all an illusion, segment 2 (furina) is not real
"Gods may have a slim chance to change fate" said the broken vase lady in sumeru. Also heard her voice in the 4.2 trailer. Neuvillette literally said events are repeating themselves. Everyone is a dead water droplet recreation sin.
it really cannot be emphasized enough - the english voice acting for her was done so unbelievably well and is definitely deserving of an award, although, regrettably, with a game like this one it likely won't be in the conversation for such honors.
Her portrayal of furinas erratic emotional states and her alternating between them so seamlessly truly made this an unforgettable experience and definitely elevated genshin's storytelling to a new high.
Oh absolutely! I was completely shocked by the sheer range the VA has - she managed to pull off Furina as an Archon, Furina being herself and Focalors with such a clear distinction while maintaining clear similarities between the three to keep them technically a one person's voice, it's actually insane. And her portrayal of emotions is also spot on.
I saw a video in which the VA was saying she originally auditioned to be Eula back in the day and I am honestly so glad that she was originally turned down and ended up as Focalors instead. Eula is a great character but the VA's range would've been completely wasted had she been casted as Eula back in 2021 and we never would've known her true potential.
Amber Lee Connors easily became one fo my favorite VAs just from the amazing performance she did as Furina and Focalors.
glad we all recognise the EN VA's talent at bringing Furina's emotions to life, Amber Lee Connors's Furina is just so much more real.
Fr, Furina and Raiden's VA's (Amber Lee and Anne Yatco) are my favourite. They couple portray 3 different personalities naturally whilst still feeling distinct. Really epic casting.🙌
Aaah her character teaser is SO GOOD!!
"Are you and I the audience, or the characters on the stage...?"

Very well said
I might be very dumb, but I see this basically being like “If we start it, then we can stop it” 😅
That is the only way actually. Go back to 2.8 with the GAA event with Mona, she specifically states that once the future has been foretold it becomes immutable. If a person is fated to die on a specific day they will die on that day no matter what she or anyone does.
So this means the exact words of the prophecy will happen, Fontaine WILL flood, the people WILL dissolve, only the hydro archon WILL be left. Furina's true goal then is to find loopholes, twists and exceptions to the words of the prophecy so that when it does happen it will happen to the letter but not the spirit of the prophecy.
When I heard about the prophecy of Fontaine, I immediately think things will be similiar to Thor: Ragnarok.
Let the prophecy happen, but make sure it doesn't mean everything is lost.

@@roennyh1362 the issue is that none of the fontainians are blue haired or pure hydro when using elemental sight
Unless of course, there is a perfect method other than the lochfolk's imperfect method to replicate that (I mean, we're talking about archons)
If the prophecy had already happened, and the current fontaine is just one giant recreated stage, then there's a huge power required to maintain that giant stage
Perhaps this explains the large amount of indemnitium? Perhaps this is also the reason why the fontainian tectonic plate is raised?
Perhaps the actual fontaine that was already sunk, had the same sea level as the rest of teyvat?
"To deceive fate", perhaps we could actually bring back the true fontaine after the end of teyvat's archon quest through the loom of fate, I mean "The fate will be yours to re-weave"

OH MY GOD SHE'S HAMLET. AND SHE PLAYED HER PART SO WELL SHE DECEIVED ALL OF US.
I'm gonna elaborate because this has been driving me crazy and I need a place to put my scattered thoughts (this is partially based on hunches/theories so don't take it all super seriously).
The entire archon quest is based on the blurred line between performance and reality, which is a major theme in Hamlet, who feigns insanity to the point where we don't what's an act and what's not. The fontainians love their charismatic archon (who also seems to have a blurred line between persona and reality) and they absolutely eat up "plays" in the form of trials. But there's a larger performance at work where all of the major players; furina, neuvillette, arlecchino, lyney, wriothesley, etc; are all trying to out-deceive each other. Furina is dismissed as someone who doesn't know what she's doing, but in the end this is what she WANTS people to think. People think they know what's going on, that they're the one manipulating the situation to their advantage, but they have no idea that they're actually playing exactly how Furina wants. It's exactly like Hamlet! As neuvillette says in the 4.2 trailer, "you're a devious one, focalors". The best part is that she's not some smug manipulator behind a chess board. In fact, she's just a emotionally volatile as her persona makes her out to be, but this complexity is what makes her character so interesting, just like Hamlet. In the end, the two of them are so desperate to try to escape fate (in furina's case, the prophecy) but their lack of taking action is their downfall. The icing on the cake would be that the prophecy has to do with the previous archon and she's trying to amend the wrongs (bc this would be so similar to hamlet avenging his father's death), but ofc none of that is revealed yet.
I'm sure these parallels to Hamlet weren't intentional (I might not even be accurate in my analysis), but I'm so excited to see what hoyo has in store for us!
YOU. THIS ANALYSIS. I need to throw it against a wall. I love it. I was obsessed with Hamlet for a solid 2 months. The parallels… ohhh my gosh I love it.
@@lefandomtrash7746 HAMLET IS MY ROMAN EMPIRE TY FOR READING MY RAMBLINGS
Literally thank u so much for this comment. Underrated
hamlet being somewhat canon to the genshin universe is nuts to me
hey i know you!!!
This teaser gave me goosebumps. I'm so incredibly excited to play the 4.2 archon quest and finally see what secrets Furina has been hiding.
She really did deceive us all... Love her so much
Honestly Impressed with this Trailer for Furina, because evn though shes jolly and enthusiastic shes hiding her real emotions deep inside and showing us her perspective of things, just seeing this almost made me tear up with how beautiful it truly is. GL TO ALL THE PLAYERS WISHING FOR FURINA!(I might wish for her dunno just hope i get her bc i already got neve)
This PV is super unique, I really like how it highlights the duality of furinas character at the start she deceives herself by acting like she is part of an opera
Honestly, Furina is likely the most misunderstood character by Everyone from the players to the Characters themselves and it was likely all by Design.
She truly is the ultimate showman.
I wouldn't say misunderstood. I'd more say nobody has a clue because her current information is extremely contradictory.
@@lokenontherangefr we barely know anything about her--

Now i can understand it... For furina the fate of Fontaine was real because she herself was a character on the stage, making her so afraid of everyone discovering who she was.... In the end, the director of the opera was foçalors and she was the only one who knew what would happen and that's why someone then tells the traveler to play her role on the stage... Idk
Inazuma showcased physical prowess in the archon quest, Sumeru on the other hand showed us the mental tricks in the archon quest but Fontaine is a freaking roller coaster of both
A true masterpiece
I believe that when she says “Unless you can decieve fate itself” is that in the prophecy it states she herself will sit on her throwing with only herself and her tears. But in the 4.2 trailer it is heavily implied (or more said outright) she will die. So I think she is trying to prevent the prophecy by making part of it untrue.
Hmm maybe, I thought she was just pretending to be the Archon so when the prophecy occurs, she will be the only one to survive
I mean... the 4.2 trailor says that Focalors will be sentenced to death by the Oratrice, but not that they'll actually go through with it, right?
@@MiyuKawasakiprophecy said only the hydro archon survived and everyone died tho.
@@angeliachailin4983 Yes so Furina claims to be the hydro archon to survive
But if she's a real god and she gets killed, doesn't that kill everyone around her as well? Like the death of the god of salt
I am so curious about Furina, and the reveal about her.
Who is she? What is going on? Is this teaser hinting at her true self? Is "Furina" some kind of pre-recorded character? Did her true self plan this all the way since 500 years ago, and has been setting the stage for everything?
I am really excited for this.
I think, She will sacrefice another side of her to deceive the fate. So, Fontaine peoples will safe.
Its Focalor who have control
@@syarifairlangga4608 i think she is. Lets wait until the end of Archon Quest Fontaine, will be amazing..
Damn your theory makes sense a lot
@@TheSamsXGaming is it gonna end at archon quest chapter 4 act 5?
Just finished 4.2 archon quest. Furina is the best archon imo
Nahida is the best archon, Furina is the most determined and strongest human in all of Teyvat.
@@KHksfthe strongest is captiano, "the captain"
@@ciabox284kcapitano might be the strongest physically, but psychologically furina is very strong. she was able to *act* as a god for over 500 years
I still consider her one of the five after the archon quest
🍅🍅🍅
This was just sad and cool , I am excited for the prophecy ^^😭
“Unless you deceive fate itself” don’t that mean we will go back in time or we have to deceive it before it happens
Furina hugging the mecha dog she said “I only have you” she was talking to the dog and recording it T^T
Guess it might be time for Part 3 of Irminsul Shenanigans LOL
I'm thinking more along the lines of Focalors and Furina are two different people, and one is dying to let the other live but still prevent the prophecy.
I really hope we don't go back in time unless it is in a clever way, that makes 100% sense in the story. Usually when you throw in time travel in a story that wasn't about time travel in the beginning, it will feel really cheap.@@emilyjackson2055
@@abdurehmanmalik2980 doesn't irminsul only erase memories though? everything with the balladeer and rukkhadevata still happened, but everyone except the traveler forgot about them because of irminsul. unless i have something wrong
@@lum_berry111 Sort of? Irminsul more or less rewrote memories/the timeline so that things could be explained without the person who was deleted. It's not just people's memories, but also the physical memories of the world (since it's all connected via ley lines). If it only affected people's memories, then Nahida wouldn't have had to encode Wanderer's past identity into a storybook in order to remember him.
It's usually already hard enough to focus when I'm this excited, but this teaser is additionally SO complex... I didn't even realize I was getting sad until everything just escalated, what fascinating cinema, it's perfect
HOW CAN ANYONE HATE HER? HER LORE, HER DESIGN, HER PERSONALITY, EVEN HER TEASER IS AWESOME OMG SHE’S THE BEST ARCHON FR
Idk about the best archon , she’s not even an original of the seven :) but I’m going to pull on her banner & maybe bubu boss also.
Yeah, I remember lots of people hating her as soon as we set foot in Fontaine. Me, I was like, this is only one side of her, we need to see the other. We’ve gotten hints about this other side through 4.0 and 4.1, now in 4.2, we will see it all, the Truth if you will.
Also, “illusion” and “misdirection”. These 2 words run through my head every time we get a Fontaine trailer or Fontaine character trailer
In act 1 i used to dislike her, but now i think she is the best archon
@@rafaelmorales1475Zhongli is the only playable original archon. Nahida is Rukadvahta’s predecessor, Ei took over for her sister Makato, and venti rose to power only 300 years ago, some time after decabrian’s death.
Edit: decabrian was NOT the anemo archon as has come to my attention - but rather an ancient anemo god - not of the seven.
@@ARandomNerdyGuy Venti is the original archon, decarabians death was 2000 years ago, way before the archons came to power.
hits different after 4.2 archon quest..
I absolutely adore the duality between light and darkness shown in her. I wanna know everytime more and more about her the more I see her, and I just can't wait to get her already. Good luck to everyone who reads this, may the archon of Hydro and justice be at home with y'all asap!
dude i wanna give her a hug so bad- i already adore her, she's taken venti's spot as my favourite archon. I cannot wait to see her character play out more in future updates.
Sad
MUST.PROTECC...
I remember when Furina was just a very plain 2D concept art that came out as a leak back in January, but seeing her as she is now, Hoyoverse did a great job on character building for her.
idk why but fontaine’s music really takes the cake with its story. like this particular song feels so gut-wrenchingly moving and emotional, while also having a devious undertone that you can’t quite shake. like something else can be heard amongst all the sounds. i think sumeru’s music did this well too, but it was a different feel entirely. sumeru’s music felt hopeful and lively, like a forest full of life, while fontaine’s music feels like a never-ending sea of waves that look pretty from afar, but they reveal themselves to be a huge tsunami once they start approaching.. idk man
To people calling Furina a Girl failure. It looks like it was all part of the show. She just might be the greatest Actress in all of Teyvat.
We can only hope, seeing as Focalors is the actual mastermind and not speaking here as we saw twice before
Makes one think that she is even deceiving herself

@@kiriekurashiki1028 she lied so hard that even she believed herself, untill the very last point where she finally showed her true self... amazing.
She's totally an Oberon from Fate GO, an Ai from Oshi no Ko 🗿🚬
she's kind of admitting that fontaine fell and she failed lol
@@luisfillipebeserra2108 We don't know that for now. "Unless u can deceive fate itself" makes it seem like she intentionally let the prophecy came true, thus "deceiving" it.
It looks like a stage play. It's surreal.
Also congrats to her amazing voice actress. It doesn't even feel like acting. It's like she is the character herself. Something rare to get right for English speaking VAs.
You are right. It doesn't even feel like she is voice acting because she isn't. She is just reading lines however she wants just like every other mihoyo eng dubber.
@@Mainfernando1bad day today?
This is beautifully written, kind of makes you second guess the border line between a play and reality. It combines the two in a certain sense that's very well done.
After the Archon Quest, now this teaser MAKES SO MUCH SENSE.. OMGGGG!!!
This is honestly one of the coolest character teasers I’ve seen

@@ARookia oh you’re totally right! I didn’t even notice it
It must've been so tough getting reminded of the prophecy all the time through nightmares. Furina needs Nahida to sing her lullaby and accompany her all night..
Tbh I can't give enough praise to amber Lee for putting so much effort into making this character.
She really made furina shine in English version, English VA are upping their game ✌🏻 I hope every English VA is as hard working as itto, furina and wanderer VA
I think Nahida's english va did great too. Especially in her teaser trailer.
@@jamrodgers121thw only thing that's beinging her down is the pitch, I'd imagine how toring her sessions are, both her and paimon...
@@koirvnenahida is fine
honestly all the archons have been pretty good VAs! Harlacher/Venti actually sang in the Weinlesefest event, Silverstein/Zhongli 😳, Yatco/Ei played three roles as Ei/Makoto/Shogun, and both Campbell/Nahida and Lee/Furina have been *really* good at breaking our hearts
For real. I usually play with the JP dub but switch to the EN dub every time I do Fontaine quests. The English crew did an amazing job
This hits VERY different after Act V of Fontaine's story.
i'm so happy hoyoverse team has come this far with their animating, you can just tell how furina is feeling and thinking through the subtle changes in her expressions!!
Who is Furina? For the blind, she is vision. For the hungry, she is the chef. For the thirsty, she is water. If Furina thinks, I agree. If Furina speaks, I'm listening. If Furina has a million fans, I am one of them. If Furina has ten fans, I am one of them.
If Furina has only one fan, that is me. If Furina has no fans, I no longer exist. If the whole world is against Furina, I am against the whole world. I will love Furina until my very last breath.
Explains your name very well ngl
Same here
Me.
Bro rizzed out of nowhere.
Wow, congratulations, what you wrote is pure art, it reflects Furina very well, I like it❣️
Hydro is my favorite element in the game and I’m so happy the hydro archon is coming soon. Good luck to all Furina pullers!
People who changed their mind about Furina after new teasers are wise, but people who always adored Furina no matter what - are the true sigmas.
Indeed, the true words have been spoken.
I liked Furina from the beginning, . Since the act III and IV, I starter liking her even more. And as we progress into the story I am loving this character more!
based
i didnt liked her blah blah but i wanted her to be worthy archon for her nation
No solo eres un simp
Truly immaculate in the artistry and dramatics, am i VERY excited to pull for her soon!!
Very acoustic

Absolute masterpiece of a story. I can't believe it's been one year already! Thank you Furina for all you've done, for the people of Fontaine, and all of Teyvat! You deserve the world!
Charlotte: The truth is sharp and inflexible
Furina: Nothing is easier to fool than the senses
This is the most visually stunning character teaser so far. Can't wait to get Furina.

Just pull for the characters you like lol
you just like me fr
Same. You can't really go wrong with hydro characters since they define all the reactions. I agree that furina is must pull because of many things, especially what u said. Furina literally 10/10 design for everything regardless of meta strength. Dont worry about if you "shouldn't pull for her".
😂
100% agree with you. Furina will be ICONIC; she's going to make a great game even greater experience. Just to have her grace your existing roster would make the Genshin experience that much richer.
4 months rapidly fly by...
😢
5 now. 😭🙏
i remember anticipating the 4.2 archon quest because i really wanted to know more about furina and why she acts the way she does... i guess the wait was worth it and now we have to wait for her second story quest..
Furina can say that Archon has a rather special situation when she has another personality, Focarlos, and she is also the person behind the largest-scale play she created. as expected from hoyoverse
The teaser is sick and her VA is phenomenal.
Can't wait to play
Furina’s design is perfect for that mirror image affect! Amazing
Here after finished the 4.2 archon quest, loves her even more.
Probably the most creatively written character in genshin.
