Timetravel event where we meet a young Signora pre Fatui?
Also, her death felt so unjustified – like seriously? Of all of the villains in the story and all the terrible things they've done, if we have to kill someone, it's obviously going to be….the person who's only negative interaction with us was kicking venti? Heck, I've wanted to kick venti once or twice…
Ive always wandered what happened to early signora savers, just like scaramouche, signora actually had an abundant saver community back then including me, but i failed saving back then as I was a new player wanting 5 stars immediately. Now im afraid that something similar might happen to columbina (im succesful at saving for her, having over 30k primos now) but what if she just dies🙁🙁
I was actually glad la signora died.
I know it may make her stans mad at the opinion but this video is the exact same reason I glad she's gone. Her character wasn't executed very well and her presence wasn't contributing anything special, any fatui could've easily replaced her and she felt grating to me. I likened her death to the writers realising that they did her dirty and there was no way to revive her story now so they did what writers usually do, which is to kill of non contributing characters and then use it to further the plot. Its basically between keeping the deadweight or getting rid of it and making what use of it you can before you discard it.
I wish she had been written well from the start and her character didn't boil down to she kicked venti. And I don't mean lore since that's separate from character and honesty only well known due to yt vids.
Hoyo got greedy because everyone's wallet will open up for Raiden Shogun, That's why they needed to rush the Inazuma Archon Quest to rush Ei's Banner.
Scaradouche got a redemption but the Crimson Witch didnt.
i hope they don't unalive signora, that feels to cheap.
I do hope they can use her in some cutscenes in natlan, to show she did much more and is part of why natlan is the way it is.
Perhaps we can see that she worked together with a few other harbingers to set the stage for what is to come.
Perhaps she used her powers to alter evidence which caused innocent people (important to the plot) to be judged guilty, since law seems such a big deal there.
i don't agree with you on her having more story. that doesn't mean what she got was good, it was bad compared to dettore she had no story.
Why i disagree is because we as a person, not a player we don't need to be told everything a character has to offer. we should be given a choice to search for the details but is it necessary. i think not. as for signora's past i think was not relevant to the story going forward(2.1 till present(3.3)) so telling that story would have been wast of their development time. there was a small segment added where scara meets her at the factory so i don't think she is going to be left at this. i mean they made a video about her death.
also her death gave us her mask which might be important when they start to talk about delusions so maybe her story will be revealed as that was the past might make sense.
i would say she is a stranger to us and we are not interested in her knowledge so no content from her
HEEEEHEEEE HI ASTER I WUV YOU ❤❤❤❤❤😂😅😂😅😂😂😮😂😢😢❤😂😂
Naw she deserved that
True, La Signora is a wasted potential that so much information about her is very hidden through artifacts and like most of the players would never read cuz they don't read lol. But still they could've inserted her backstory here and there like scaramouche in sumeru archon quest but alas, that was never shown. I was hooked to the Fatui Harbingers cuz they're way more interesting to me than abyss order rn cuz most of them have no personality or character aside from the abyss prince/princess and enjou but unlike with Childe and Scaramouche, Signora was never fleshed out even though she appears in 3 nations right at the end unlike the other 2 where we see Childe's two sides of being a weapon waiting to be used and fight for his archon, the Tsaritsa and the family man that will do anything to keep them safe in liyue and then Scaramouche in Sumeru where the second betrayal in tatarasuna isn't what it seems and he tried to change the past but the only the causes of the events are changed and not the outcomes and now he accepted who he is and what he did and live through it all.
La Signora never had any of her backstories shown and ended up being pretty fukin forgettable unlike the other 3 we were shown, Dottore, Scaramouche and Tartaglia. I really hope the rest of the Harbingers are well written cuz they're the ones who hooked me into the entire story of this game
Inazuma could've been so much more, I can't even.
Even Raiden story quest 2 couldn't fix everything for me.
Signora is the best design and lore I need her to playable character
I appreciate that you point out she was completely underdeveloped in the game’s story as a whole, not just in Inazuma. From a pure story standpoint, La Signora was someone who was mysterious, hot, scary, brash, and manipulative. That sort of character has a lot of potential, but Genshin never did anything at all with her. While I personally don’t believe that she’s gone for good—either by some literal resurrection or just through flashbacks or leylines—I definitely think that she should have appeared a bit more in Inazuma’s story before she dies. Maybe the Traveler catches a glimpse of her in the crowd while challenging the Shogun over Thoma’s vision. Imagine the tension and the terror of the Traveler seeing her smugly watching the spectacle right before the Traveler passes out. Or imagine the Traveler is taken in by the Tenryou commission for interrogation instead of the Shogun moving to execute the Traveler right away, and Signora stops by the Traveler’s cell to gloat before Sayu comes to break the Traveler out (woo, relevance for more underused characters!)
That being said, her death, to me, is very important and not just lazy writing for shock value or to just give Signora a tragic, untimely death. Up until Inazuma, death was not on the table and the stakes weren’t as high. The Shogun was a threat, but her ruthlessness in killing Signora was genuinely frightening. We haven’t seen the active power of any of the archons up until then, and the Shogun smiting Signora makes the Fatui less of an unstoppable force and makes the archons a much more formidable foe to them (and the players). They’re going up against gods and this is what gods can DO. We’ve found out that Dottore is about as powerful as an archon, which also makes Dottore and the other high up Fatui members much scarier. Childe and Wanderer both suggest they’re scared of Columbina—after seeing the Shogun just take Signora out and knowing that the high up Fatui might be able to do something like that gives their fear of Columbina more credit and gives the players more reason to be afraid of the Harbingers.
Her death also gives us stakes without killing a currently-playable character. Teppei’s death gave Dunyurzad’s illness and the Sabseruz festival weight, but if it was just Teppei who died then we wouldn’t ever be concerned about any of the playable characters being in danger. Signora’s death gave Collei’s illness and Scaramouche’s fate uncertainty… without sacrificing someone like Kazuha or Thoma, both of whom were in the “you’re giving up death flags” territory.
TL; DR: Signora was done dirty as an individual character and should have gotten more screen time in Inazuma before dying, but her death was very poignant to Genshin’s story moving forward and raises the stakes for literally everyone.
I have absolutely no problem with Signora dying. And I hope death comes to more of the Harbingers, especially Dottore, instead of all of them being redeemed or kinda nice. However, I agree that you wouldn't know much about Signora unless you read the lore. I think they did a well enough job making you hate her for what she did to Venti and just being a straight up bitch. But they didn't do much to make you empathize with her. Though as I say that, if Traveler empathized with her, they wouldn't be so gung-ho to kill her in Inazuma. So, I guess I see the reason why they didn't delve into her backstory.
All the Harbingers deserve to have the their own feature, because most of them have some the most intriguing lore in the game. Signora though, she definitely deserves to have her full story told. I hope that as the story progresses we get more tidbits of her. There's the whole Zandik may be Dottore thing in Sumeru, they could do something similar for Signora. My personal hope is that when we get to Pierro, we'll learn her story. He went to a lot of trouble with the funeral. Maybe it speaks to their relationship with each other? She was one of the few that remembered the world before the cataclysm. That could create a bond between the two. Who knows. Either way, I hope Hoyo does right by her.
In terms of Inazuma, as much as I love Ayaka, I feel like she was the wrong Kamisato to have in the Archon quest. With all the political intrigue that was featured, Ayato should have been the sibling used in the story. Considering he was the one to get Kazuha out of Inazuma, one could make a strong argument that Ayato, possibly with Yae, sent Kazuha to get the Traveler in the hope that they could save the nation. It would have also added more gravity to the situation as he was the one commissioner speaking out against the decrees and indirectly supporting the resistance efforts from a distance. Additionally, it also adds something to Thoma's arrest. We know now that Thoma is way more to Ayato than just a servant. The arrest and public humiliation of Thoma was a direct slap in the face to Ayato and could be perceived as a declaration of war between the other two commissions and Ayato. The fact that there was zero follow up on that beyond Ayato doing a favor for his sister is BS. I know the other commissioners are arrested and jailed for their crimes, but that seems like a weak resolution given how Ayato is presented in his story quest. Hoyo could have done way more with him beyond just sticking him on at the end of Inazuma before moving on to Sumeru. Maybe he'll become a major player in the story as we progress, who knows.
Don't think she's coming back, at least not in real Teyvat, maybe in more memory or past sequences.
But I'm 99% sure there is going to be more about her, maybe uncovering her past through another character's or archon story. There is a lot of lore behind her, Genshin puts a lot of effort into the little things so a chasm of a harbinger's lore just escaping mention is too strange.
Usually when an antagonist dies early, it results in them being revisited or explored later in a story when their death has more relevance and impact to it. right now Signora was literally just a puppet of the situation, her past has no relevance to any of the present except the boss fight. I'm betting we'll see a lot more when we get closer to the truth of the cataclysm. Maybe then we'll get a deeper understanding of her past, motivations, and personality. Sort of like a back to front way of exploring the character, sometimes after they're gone is when the lore has a bigger impact. for someone as tragic as Signora, it might work if done well.
You got a point I barely see her in any Genshin platforms even she doesn't exist in the manga. The only Harbinger I see is Dottore but one of his segments.
Finish with this, too many cries for some tits, they justify it a lot because of their "lore" which is not even a big deal, literally an Inazuma NPC his only son died in the war too, and he is not making dramas.
Watching Scara go through a whole arc & got cutscenes and such made me just feel really sad on how Signora was given almost nothing (I’m say this as a Scara fan, I just want BOTH to be fully fleshed out)
I hope they wont do the other female harbingers bad like signora
I loved it personally. It made the world feel real and dangerous. The suddenness of it was actually shocking (sorry). It also allayed my worries about every character being kept alive and phoned into the team “because hot”. Could she have had a backstory cutscene? Sure. But she did basically get a Winter night Lazzo aka the most hype piece of Genshin content we’ve seen imo.
"Nothing remained in her ashes. I have no interest in those who have lost their future."
I actually don't think she was 'badly' treated personally. Her life was exactly how she was in death. Nothing important and left in ashes. To me, she was never meant to be anything more then a pawn in a game that she didn't even realise was been played. I also believe that she would have been killed off regardless even if it wasn't in inazuma as her flames would consume her in the end or she would end up been double crossed by Pierro
Y'know, one day she'll be around again (probably for that hoyoverse budget to go even higher) and we'll all just look back at these days feeling dumb about ourselves
signora deserved better treatment and raiden deserved a more severe punishment, everything about inazumas story irks me, it's like a Disney plot
Inazuma shafted so many characters. Ayato, Ayaka, La Signora, Scaramouche's intro if you didn't meet him in 1.1, Kokomi, even Ei herself. It was rushed, and felt like they changed a ton of things at the last minute, maybe because they could not tell the story proper because of the pandemic, forcing them to use simpler story tellings.
She will be back.
aster: la signora was done dirty
meanwhile sara in the background:
this is one of the issue with genshin ingame storytelling, they tell a lot but show a little.
La Signora, Kujou Sara, and Kokomi are in my opinion three of the worst cases of missed opportunity throughout Inazuma. Raiden used to be there as well but she got…less of a "fix" but moreso an addition that made her writing errors less egregious. It's clear that Genshin has great potential as a story and there's many times where it shines through but if I had to be honest, so many times it feels like its holding back for some reason or the other. I hope if the anime is a retelling of the story, they kind of patch up the areas where the game story fell through.
(But seriously my poor Sara, she deserves a hangout so much and like Signora is really a bad choice to just keep shoving in the background)
I'm not much of a Signora fan but I really think her potential as an antagonist was wasted and her death was utterly unnecessary in the context of the plot. To me, it made about as much sense as if Traveller challenged Childe to a duel to the death the next moment they saw him and he died instead with absolutely no build-up beforehand. As someone so cautious as not to alert the knights about her thievery of the gnosis, it made no sense for her to even accept a duel to the death as she is a Snezhnayan diplomat who has no reason to obey Inazuman laws, or take such a risk in a matter that involved no gnosis. Like Scaramouche, I feel like Signora at least deserved some development/exposition as unless you read the lore, she seems like a one-dimensional villain who randomly dies just because. Plus as far as the traveller knew, all Signora has done before them was kick Venti the one time and take the gnosis as Zhongli literally agreed to work with them. She literally just had a few cameos and died.
Inazuma was just rushed. Look at Ei's first story quest, she literally caused a civil war and then just went on a walk around the town with the Traveler. Yes it got better in her 2nd quest but it was still jarring. Almost would have made more sense to switch them. Everything in Watatsumi was super rushed as well. Sumeru was better thanks to the 3 parts to the Archon quest.
I'll say it but I liked the way her story played out. She got totally clapped and it was awesome.
Also yes, she was a bad antagonist so I won't miss her and I think her death was a really impactful point in the whole story so far even though inazuma lacked overall
She'll be back. Trust, trust. Her redemption arc will be similar like Scaras👌😂
I really don't like how Hoyov. tells the backstory of any character with a cutscene. I wish they had more oomph, idk. I wish they were more creative with their creative storytelling in-game. Like having the story told from multiple perspectives (like the most Sumeru archon quest when we played as Nilou). Like the pacing just feels off when we get a character's entire backstory after going through slow dialogue. Maybe it's just me tho, what do y'all think? Or maybe genshin dialogue is just bad but Idk.
edit: Signora's was even worse cause her entire backstory was in artifact lore descriptions.
Honestly even though I kinda hate signora, killing her off like that without developing on her character feels like such a big waste.
Like, unless you actually go explore the obscure parts of the game to understand her character (via crimson witch artifact for example) you won't really know anything about her… And the game just killed a major character without telling the audience anything about them.
This is one of the reasons i feel like Inazuma's archon quest line is by far the worst one out of all the 4 regions we got so far.
The prologue isn't that exciting you could say, but it's mainly for world building and as a starting point it does it's job perfectly by explaining the basics of everything you need to know for the future regions.
Although I haven't been the biggest Signora fan or looked into her character other than the crimson witch story, they should have made her more memorable, I even forgot about her death once unfortunately. We need Signora lore brought back, and if not brought back, at least address the crimson witch of flames. I may not be able to like the Fatui but Signora was genuinely fascinating :((
She can come back on the anime
She definitely deserved an animated cutscene showing how she became the crimson witch of flames and a fatui harbinger. That was the least they could do for her.
Although Signora is one of my favorite characters and I really want her playable, I don't think she should come back to life without a proper reason. Her death was already handled so poorly that reviving her would make her death look even worse, as it would have literally had no impact on the story. I can only hope her hypothetical revival will be handled with the proper care. If not, I'd rather she stay dead. I'll save gems for Sandrone instead :p
i don't believe she's gone. Her disintegration was a trick .. an illusion. She'll be tied up with the Pyro Archon (pyro -> fire -> light -> illusion -> deception)
I love her dearly
I agree she is done dirty
No justice for her .
She die in vainly.
But that life
Some born well
And
Some not well.
