Makoto's understanding of space and time is incredible, she can exist in both the past and present, if only her martial prowess can keep up with that ability, she would've been the strongest archon
People are not relating Istaroth to Paimon to the first god we see. If Istaroth helped Makoto to "free the sacred sakura tree from the clutches of the heavenly principles"… that god might not be a villain. That god might have snatched the twin travelers to save Teyvat from the primordial one. And she might be Paimon in disguise.
Hello guys, after fighting the new raiden boss and observing her attacks, i found a few things that could be helpful when fighting her: WARNING: SPOILERS 1. Electro DOES NOT DESTROY HER “purple bar” thing that makes her strong. Use cryo or pyro to destroy it. 2. On the find the real raiden thing, the REAL ONE DOES AN “X” ATTACK/SLASH. The fake ones do a “I” Slash 3. When the Boss has her purple bar destroyed, she stops for a few seconds, and YOUR ELEMENTAL BURSTS REFILL. (I dont know how many times though) 4. On the huge sword slash thing, Electro can instantly make the shield appear( tested this on yae miko normal attack, and saw a keqing do it) an you can’t iframe it. 5. SHE TAKES YOUR ENERGY ( i think its random ) 6. The 3 bolt things with a purple wave at the ground, They DEAL A LOT OF DAMAGE AND WILL KILL YOU, avoid it by jumping over it or use a tanky shield. 7. USING A BURST TO IFRAME THE LARGE SLASH WILL NOT WORK. she steals your energy most of the time and your screen “freezes” before you can do the burst. Those are the things i found for now, and correct me if i’m wrong
Just finished Ei's new SQ! It was great! It is certainly better than the dating sim we got in 2.1. We really get to see her development and her loss. It did felt like it was really centered to her. Also, props to Ei's english VA, she did a great job!
Also, I love the lore that was given. I wonder if the cataclysm that happened 500 years ago is all over Teyvat because I initially thought that it was focused on the destruction of Khaenriah. Im also glad that Kazari was mentioned and Kitsune Saiguu.
Makotos consciousness also mentioned something about "Heavenly principle " i wonder what does that mean.
The fight…the music is FIRE! The shogun is aggressive and i liked it. I have yet to try the weekly boss version but I heard its quite a challenge.
i think my only critic is Yae being Deus Ex Machina all over again. We went to her and poof it was immediately resolved ,faster than a dying Teppei.
This was really good. Now, imagine how much more powerful it'd have been, if in 2.1 Ei had been shown as paying the consequences for her mistakes and fuckups. If Inazuma no longer trusted her, if Miko–her only remaining friend from the old days–had been portrayed as more detached from her because Ei essentially abandoned her for centuries. Imagine if Ei had to deal with the destroyed lives and ambitions of the people who died due to her mistakes, and the anger of those who loved them. Basically, imagine if she had come here after being "destroyed" by the price of her massive mistakes, and after that truly starting to change her mind. This scene would then feel an actual rebirth, and she would be now ready to earn back the trust of her people. This was a really good quest but the leadup–the exhaustion phase of Ei's transformation arc–sadly left much to be desired. Still, I now like Ei as a character thanks to this quest, and I'm glad to have pulled for her.
It makes sense that Ei doesn't know anything about Khaenriah cause only the archons went to fight in Khaenriah and she wasn't one at that time. Since Ganyu has claimed that only Venti and Zhongli are the og 7 archons, only they know what happened in Khaenriah.( which reminds me that we haven't talked to venti about khaenriah)
I really hope this Sacred Sakura is still there while we fighting Puppet Shogun for accession material…as a rememberene of Makoto which we cannot see while playing the quest but still can hear her voices
tbh 2.5 first half is mostly focused on ei. yae miko is too below ei and ayato this time. perhaps the dendro element could get her attention back in upcoming patches but i think they should've made yae a 4 star likes ningguang. making another 5s electro woman is just absurd
"goodbye makoto" IM IN TEARS
"What do you think? Did it do the trick?"
A statement that asks for the future and from the past at the same time.
Wait what? I'm so confused
someone give Anne Yatco an Oscar for her work in this quest. or a cookie, whichever is better
Makoto's understanding of space and time is incredible, she can exist in both the past and present, if only her martial prowess can keep up with that ability, she would've been the strongest archon
This was the best quest ever 😢😭😭😭
Makoto's parting scene with them reminds me of master oogway's death scene.
tbh, this story quest is gotta be the best one, I even thought its an archon quest

I cry when she say goodbye
It would have been lovely if the sakura petals had taken the form of Makoto for one last goodbye to Ei.
That was really well done really hits the soft spot let alone the lore bomb.
Of all the higher gods, Istatoth seems to be the one with the most empathy.
From what I understand she helped Makoto with the sacred sakura.
I wish that you could pause cutscenes. I had to leave for a minute when it played. Thank goodness you can find anything on YT.
I cried ngl
Wait is makoto yae miko? I havent started tge quest yet
Bro I was surprised I can see the whole cut scene in my phone the whole time.
Makoto just finna pulled out a Master Oogway there LMAOOO
Makoto's final goodbye reminds me of how Oogway ascended. Truly remarkable such a pleasing sight.
I feel bad for the VA's voice having to voice 3 fricken characters and doing most of the voice acting in this quest also poor ei
None of these cutscenes lagged, i am blessed

But the again, I still enjoyed her SQ.

My tears come out when i hear Makoto voice ah
After this cutscene the purple seelie that i got looks like makoto to me now
My phone didn't lagged. Mihoyo keeps optimizing pretty well

Are these the shogun paths?
ima need someone to make an animated wallpaper @ 1:57 PLEASE AND TY
This quest was really the most emotional, it even made me cry half way especially with the tea master. It really is a masterpiece ✨💜
EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!!!!!!
now ei got the closure she needed all those years ago, ahhh my heart 😭
Its Ei’s theme orchestration that elevated the scene. Well the FX and script too tho. Haha. Hope they release this too.
Anyone can make an HD wallpaper for minut1:58? When makoto says goodbye? It’s really good
I cried! 😭😭😭
I really hope this Sacred Sakura is still there while we fighting Puppet Shogun for accession material…as a rememberene of Makoto which we cannot see while playing the quest but still can hear her voices
Did makoto really just master oogway her way out of the scene?? XD
The thumbnail be like. Ei: 5000 and this is deep… 😑
So the current Ei planted the Sakura tree so that it grows in the past becoming the big one we see today
I want to see Makoto in his original form.
Damn Zeke's good
Mans literally became Master Oogway
I played the Japanese version, the difference in the raiden shogun and Ei is very noticeable compared to the English.
Was definitely emotional on another level, best character quest by far…
Not me crying now nuh uh im fine😭😭
2.5 penuh bawang
sorry but it was a lot more meaningful and emotional in japanese
I love the English dub so much
