  1. I think it's the opposite. All of the Anemo Genshins we know so far don't/didn't have freedom. Thus, they were given Anemo Visions as if the Archon wants to set them free..
    Workaholic Jean, can't stop doing experiment Sucrose, fighting in the endless battle Xiao, and shuumatsuban duty Sayu.

  2. Anemo- those people who uses action instead of words yet carefree as the wind
    Geo- those who there will is strong as stone
    Electro-those who have a thunderous ideal of an altered reality
    Hydro-those who have there watery feat to strive better
    Pyro- those who have an incandescent passion as fire
    Cryo those who have cryogenic persona for elegance and love

    Those are my take for each ideology of each archon but this is my uncompleted theory cause we still have to dendro left to explore

  4. Is this going to be a series? I would love to see the other elements too

    Edit: thanks for explaining Venti cause people only see his lazy bard side and not his Barbatos side

  5. Somehow with how the anemo characters view their freedom, they seem to have a commun point that, ultimately, true freedom can be translated to loneliness. Freedom to sing ballads, but , by doing so, being constantly reminded of what he have lost. Protecting people as you see fit from everything and even at the cost of protecting them from himself. Being so passionate about a projet you end up caring alone and dive in so much in it, may or may be not to numbing the feeling of being left alone. Bearing so much responsibilities alone while being content and confortable and not thinking an instant the heavy burden and expectations she insist caring alone. Freedom to roam the world, with no oppression and nothing bounding him, while having no place to call home, or people to call family. Freedom in sleep form, nothing is more lonelier than than this, but is it better to be awake with the reality that her master left her without a word or numb this loneliness away in her sleep? Not to mention she probably mistook her advise of "growing up" physically with "growing up" mentally so she could stand and live on her own. And sleeps away every moment since her master is gone. At least it’s my point of view of it. Not to mention they all without exception have experienced a lost at some point before and after obtaining their vision, can be a person, a legacy or something else.

    I’d like if you could do analysis about other elements (electro and cryo will be very interesting). Also my gf mentioned that hydro while being justice could be tied with obsession, Mona being the exception of this theory though…

  7. If you look at Venti’s gnosis it’s the queen piece in chess- which can symbolise his freedom across the board (I.e Teyvat) but since it’s been handed by Celestia it can also represent that Venti is a chained soldier under the will of Celestia.

    So ironic that the god of freedom himself has none. Especially if he was forced by Celestia to destroy Khaenri’ah.

  8. Freedom is eternal sleep.
    To not be bound by the wrinkles laced on your face from contrived emotion.

    Freedom is, to not think.
    To not stay up at the witching hour with haunting thoughts left in your brain, that you cannot act upon.

    Freedom is apathetic towards your suffering and happiness.

    To no longer be bound by the things that weave your skin with patches of black, which are darker than night, nor the faulty happiness,

    you have brought your self to believe won't come crushing down in one second.

    Freedom is to no long feel as the darkness around you,

    lays it's cold body on your eyes,

    and pulls you into the abyssal asleep, leaving you without an ounce of fear as you fall peacefully within it.

    So what is freedom?

    Freedom is something that never existed , but once you lose the ability to think, act, and feel.

    You are no longer bound by the illusion of free choice you mistakenly believed you had.

    That is freedom
    – By me a sleep deprived person ☕

  9. Really like your interpretation of the idea behind the Visions.
    I think this sometimes gets lost in all these long-winded story quests. So it's nice to have it summed up and analyzed again in such video.
    Hope you'd like to do this for the other Visions, too!

    (PS: Could you please switch the video language to 'English'? That way the auto-generated captions might work better ^^)

  10. This video is just awesome! I had actually been trying to understand the link between each Archon's Ideal and how their representing characters of that element interpreted it, but met much difficulty with elements other than Anemo and Geo.
    Would it be possible to keep making this video but with the other elements? That would be very interesting!

  11. The analysis is amazing for each Anemo and the god of Anemo. The concept of having freedom is to choose for yourself to achieve a certain goal. I see these Anemo users having their own type of freedom, which is free from the chains of responsibilities, free from choosing whoever you want to be, etc. In the Philosophy of freedom, one of its types is Metaphysical freedom which means the power to choose among "genuine alternatives" (acting independently

    of prior causal factors). The following are the views of freedom IMO:

    Determinism is the belief that all human behaviors flow from genetic or environmental factors, which means freedom is an illusion because of the events that are happening around you. It asserts that man may have circumstantial
    freedom, but he does not have metaphysical freedom.

    Libertarianism is a philosophical view that believes that human actions are "freely chosen", it is usually better to give people more free choice because the concept of determinism does not fit because of influence to relatives, people that teach you, culture, etc. which also means free will was blocked by a higher authority.

    Compatibilism is a philosophical view that believes that free will and
    determinism is compatible ideas and that it is possible to believe in both without

    being logically inconsistent. It's like you doubt something from what is bound to happen in the future, it's more like you have free will, but you also focus on determinism for you to judge what can be the right choice.

    Venti, having the conception of carrying the freedom from his friend and escaping from all responsibilities in Celestia is like he is an escapee of Libertarianism and wants to seek what's outside of Celestia. Other Anemo users like Kazuha, Sayu are also libertarianism escapees. Xiao can be a determinism IMO, Jean can be focusing on compatibilism, Sucrose… maybe compatibilism also IMO. So yeah, really long to read but I hope this helps in the philosophy of freedom through views.
