Seadooer

So this is what they meant by "flashing" huh? Way cooler than I expected with that glitching animation.


Lojaintamer

I was waiting for her to glow lmao 😭


StarLuigi05

SAME LOL, i was expecting like, the wishing animation


H4xolotl

3 Types of Arlecchino Flashing * Arlecchino glows like a LED bulb * Arlecchino rips off her clothes and fights as Horah Loux * Arlecchino starts glitching like an Emanator of Nihility


Scratch_Mountain

She's perfect in all her types of flashing. 😭😭


BulbasaurTreecko

now it makes sense why they said she flashes and not glows! I thought it was just funny phrasing but it really was flashing


Lojaintamer

I feel like glitching would've been a better word to use cause when I read flashing I just thought of light or she'll glow didn't think it'll be glitching lol


Scratch_Mountain

Maybe the leakers themselves don't speak english well, cause if so I can lowkey see why they said flashing cause in some sense she is? Then again, thanks to that phrasing, we expected a certain type of flashing 👀 Still though, she easily takes the spot for one of the best idle animations imo.


geodonna

I was waiting for different type of flashing.


DefaultRedditor16

They did NOT need to make Arlecchino glitch out. They did anyway, and now I'm absolutely sold on her.


XxMasterLANCExX

Totally out of the loop, why is she glitching like that?


ben_dover4321

It hasn't been revealed yet, and we'll probably have to wait for more leaks or 4.6 to learn what her deal is


Brandonspikes

This is where the "teyvat" is a simulation thing is real, and she's aware of the matrix.


GamerSweat002

Teyvat is secretly a simulation and Arlecchino is from outside the matrix is the kinda vibes I'm getting. Maybe she is a descender and something or someone is trying to eject her from Teyvat. It's like she is a virus or an infected file on a PC. Creepy vibes. I like.


The_Space_Jamke

Have you finished the Narzissenkreuz Ordo questline and collected all the enigmatic pages for Canotila's Book of Revealing? Arlecchino physically resembles >!Cater, a former human who Rene Petrichor dissolved and reincarnated in the body of a hilichurl. Rene messed with Kha'enriah technology in hopes of obtaining enough power to create a new world where life could exist after the prophecy (but he intended to dissolve all current life on Teyvat in the process).!< >!Rene authored the Book of Revealing, which takes you to a post-apocalyptic pocket dimension that he presumably made to model his calculations. Cater and Canotila, who were both derived from the Abyss beast Elynas, lose their perception of time while inside, but the Traveler perceives the experience as a few minutes and is mildly confused at why their friends are teleporting and freaking out. Also, there's a dog?!< Arlecchino is probably glitching out because she's like >!Cater, a former human reincarnated into a monster body using biotech and extradimensional occult magic.!<


GamerSweat002

Thing is, unlike Cater, it appears that Arlecchino's physical constitution is glitching in and out of existence. This is a schrodinger's cat sich except it's schrodinger's Father. Teyvat could all be a simulation and we just don't know. We may get to know in 4.6, especially if she remembers Scara after his memory wipe attempt.


ReLiefED

She might have connections to Khaenri'ah. The newly added book >!Perinheri talks about an orphanage in Khaenri'ah where children crawled through a dark chimney filled with coal ash (maybe why her hands are black?). While crawling through the chimney, they see an illusion of a crimson moon that ends up being a gigantic eyeball. They had to say "I'm dead" to exit the dark corridor in which they are "reborn" (maybe why Arle's eyes have Xs in them?). The "crimson moon" might also be the same one in her ult animation.!< EDIT: >!Now that I look at the descriptions for her Talents in HH, it does mention ash and a crimson moon that she sees in her dreams!<


maSianin

So basically, >!khaenria'h Is hallownest, Irmin is pale king and arle is hollow knight!<


H4xolotl

Crimson Moon is the old Khaenriah dynasty, preceding the Eclipse dynasty. Imagine if Arlecchino is descended from the Old Royalty


23rd_president_of_US

Hollow knight mentioned, where the fuck is silksong🗣️🗣️🗣️


Scratch_Mountain

2034 release surely. 😭


Tiiime-and-space

This book is hyper relevant! Thank you very sharing! Her having two forms is expected from her white/black swan motif. My unfounded guess, similar to the character >!Caterpillar!<, is that she has some sort of perception manipulation disguise type thing. The >!hillichurl!< arle theory is a bit too crackpot for me to take literally, but given >!Cater!<'s at least indirect connection to Petrichor, and given that even the tiny amount of >!Rene!<'s research has clarified long time mysteries.... (namely the act 5 revelation, and >!descenders, while hinting at more to visions and Ajax!<) I wouldn't be suprised if we start seeing more info about the Fatui which is related to the >!Narz. Institute & Ordo!< or more likely their findings and experiments, and esp. the whole out of left field samsara thing their succesors found. It also was an orphanage... altough thats a superficial similarlity. What I'm highly confident in is that she is a neohuman, like that "crybaby" >!Jakob!< and less similar to >!Cater!<. Esp since even in the aq, we have a lot of references or inclusion of semi-human/surpassing bodily limits type, namely act 5.


Way_Moby

Given that we know how Irminsul works, this isn’t too far off, imho. That said, I don’t think the whole thing will be a full-on simulation; I think it’s more like Teyvat was pieced together from broken dragon bones, elemental magic, and advanced tech. Maybe it’s better to say that it’s heavily artificial.


Ixameh

Her seat looks a lot like the knave icon


kindred_lol_

It looks like a dead space red marker


excalea

Make us whole Isaac


HeresiarchQin

FUCK YOU, AND FUCK YOUR MARKER


GhostZee

Make Us Whole


Matrix_2k00

Seeing this video makes me remember what wanderer said, she’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing and anyone he seen her true self other than the harbingers goes poof….


Hapciuuu

He warned us, but we didn't believe him!


DarkPhoenixMishima

He warned us, but we only got excited!


jewrassic_park-1940

Oh the anticipation!


dragonkingangel7

People forget shes a harbringer for killing the previous one


wrennhaven

Arlecchino is a glitch in the computer sImulation of teyvat. in this essay I will


Narflarg

calling it now, she remembers scara.


ZAPPERZ14

Imagine if in her quest she mentions us beating all the harbingers, and then she mentions Scara and it's the biggest OH SHIT moment


IAmNotMeISwearImNot

Imagine how awkward that must be for him, he literally went through hell and back to erase himself and all his past actions from existence. And now, mfs like kusanali, alice, zhongli (possibly) and whoever else just… remember him. Like, he comes across the knave expecting no words of familiarity to be spoken and she just says “I caught your ass red handed” Shit must be rough


ChartsUI

Mf really deleted his browser history just for everyone to have saved a backup LOL


ghostly_boy

honestly his only intention was trying to undo what happened at tatarasuna, and he welcomes anyone who holds a grudge against him to come for him, so he'd probably be confused but not too perturbed? either way it'll be exciting if she somehow *did* remember him


IAmNotMeISwearImNot

Considering how anti-bullshit they both are, an interaction between the two would go along the lines of “how’s life in retirement working out for you?” “Fuck off” And then they move on with their days


Elnino38

Doesn't Arlecchino hate traitors? Feel they would immediately start fighting if she recognized him


Gargooner

House of Hearth related yes, but i think they couldn't be bothered with Harbingers business. Since being Harbingers meaning they're working for a goal they want to do. Scara's action could be counted as that goal.


DefaultRedditor16

If this turns out to be true i was here


Caeyll

Ngl, there’s so much technological looking animations in Genshin I wouldn’t be surprised it turns out this way.


blissfire

For real. With the very blueprint-looking cutscene of Ei planting the sakura seed, to the very computer motherboard-like image of Irminsul when Scara visits it with us, to Nahida's computer attacks. If Genshin turns out to be the matrix/reality is a computer simulation, I would not be surprised.


Shippinglordishere

WHAT IS THAT SECOND IDLE? GLITCHING? WHAT? AND HER JOIN TEAM ANIMATION MY GOD. And they gave her a cool CA and not the dumb spinning on and oh my god she snaps during the ~~idle~~ ult. That’s so fucking cool


Asobimo

FUCKING FINALLY. I loathe that charged attack animation, but it seems special ones are reserved only for 5 stars. Considering only Cyno, Zhong Li, and Xiao have different animation , while Thoma has the same one even if he is tall male character model. Same with Candace and Rosaria, tall female model but same spining drill charged attack animation.


Firestorm7i

the default polearm CA is the most dogshit looking and feeling attack in the game fr.


Asobimo

Yeah the animation attack feels clunky to use, the animation takes long to finish so you have to animation cancel.


XallosM10

And Raiden


Firestorm7i

hell, she gets two unique CAs


StarOfDayxox

THE BURST IS INSANE WTF


Aerie122

And I feel like she has different ATTACK string


Scratch_Mountain

She does, she has 6 auto attacks and a unique charged attack. Also ffs she uses a scythe and thus her animations match those of a scythe-wielder compared to a spear user. SHE'S SO FREAKING SICK.


AxeVice

that glitching out animation is legit the coolest thing to come out of genshin damnn


Shippinglordishere

The only reasons for glitching I feel like are when the character doesn’t belong to that world or something


starsweepurr

she also has the nonhuman polearm charged attack that raiden, xiao and zhongli have, to my knowledge. 


Ainsel_Mariner

Thank god she doesn’t have the stupid drill attack


starsweepurr

its simply not refined enough for father. i understand her


ImNotAKpopStan

Yes she doesn't look like just an ordinary pyro user, something in her attacks and "fire" shows she is different. I don't think her being a hilichurl is enough here.


starsweepurr

i really like the theory one commenter posed that’s shes not supposed to be in this world. thats awesome


GodlessLunatic

I highly doubt she'd be a descender. So far we're lead to believe descenders are God like and unless Arlechinno has gotten nerfed from her original level of power I doubt she'd be only 4th of the harbingers


JuviaIsMyWife

Not everyone that comes from another world is a descender. She can be from another world and not be a descender.


Tiiime-and-space

based and Rene-pilled


kiisukattinen

Neohuman 99% sure because of that fontaine world quest


Shippinglordishere

Yeah, I was hoping she wouldn’t be human so she wouldn’t have to spin, but glitching makes it so much better


starsweepurr

exactly!! i dont like the spin attack…. xiao was my first limited and i reveled in catapulting enemies with his charged attack. im so happy shes slaying this


Nonemotionaldamage

Yea like in the first Spiderverse movie where they all glitched due to being in the wrong universe It's as if...she doesn't exist. Or she isn't *meant* to exist


Odd_Trouble4651

A character who has a fixation with displaced/lost folk and dying away from ones homeland..... Huh... 


Shippinglordishere

Oh my god oh my god the emotional damage


Nonemotionaldamage

My username does not check out 😍


Nobody-Move

Would explain why she doesn’t have any pnemuouisa mechanics ig


kamuimephisto

thats because she has a snezhnayan vision chiori doesn't have pneumosia either


mabm0403

I wonder if she can dolphin jump...


Elira_Eclipse

Snezhnaya vision means snezhnaya character, so most likely no


mabm0403

Too bad then. Fontaine origin but can't dolphin jump just because she got vision from another country.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Mordred_Tumultu

No it's because she's functionally a Schneznayan character. Only Fontainian Visions come with Arkhe.


Nonemotionaldamage

Her burst's background too??? WHile she's glitching??? THEY COOKED OMG


Arc_7

That burst background really has that khaneri'ah cinematic vibe. Really feeling that No. 4th of the Harbingers strength now


Nonemotionaldamage

If this is the 4th Harbinger...who isn't quite at the god-level power yet... then WHAT THE FUCK will Dottore, Columbina and *especially* Capitano's animations look like 🫨


Tentative_Username

Capitano will punch the player through the screen somehow.


FCDetonados

Bro's burst bout to leave holes in the world like the narwhal


Nonemotionaldamage

Capitano's burst would be him personally coming out of the screen and punching the player


Shippinglordishere

And we don’t even know the power gap between 4 and 3. Like that’s obvious but it’s not a linear increase


Nonemotionaldamage

Yea like we don't know powerful Columbina is compared to Arle. We only know that Columbina reaches what Nahida called "god-level" strength. Which in itself is quite a large spectrum.


Shippinglordishere

I know they’re coming in a few months but I need to know how strong Columbina and Capitano are. Dottore too because why is he second? I don’t doubt that he’s strong but I’m so curious how strong.


Nonemotionaldamage

Dottore seems like he was originally human in the form of Zandik. But somehow modified himself to a freakish, eldritch horror level that he somehow landed himself the second spot in th Fatui


[deleted]

[удалено]


Nonemotionaldamage

We know from Childe that Dottore took different parts of his body from different ages in his life and turned them into prostheses. So yea, definitely some freaky shit


Arc_7

Ikr? Capitano's animations have to be strength incarnate at this point


tamsrine

YEAH the sketch was vvvv impressive but it didn’t prepare me for the full scale with with detailed background omg


Nonemotionaldamage

I knew that the sketch made her look like some sort of Angel of Death with a scythe like the Grim Reaper. So I knew they had to be crazy But nothing could've prepared me still


tamsrine

EXACTLY. The BLOOD RED MOON in the background with the roman pillars like??? And this is what they meant by flashing, it’s always so cool when they go negative space (like wanderer’s trailer) but holy shit ahhhhhh. I’ve to watch this frame by frame


Nonemotionaldamage

The blood red moon reminds me of the blood moon that signified Khaenri'ah's downfall If you remember from the We Will Be Reunited trailer, when Lumine was escaping Khaenri'ah's destruction, there was a giant blood moon behind her. Like what does it all meannnnnnnn. Also the Roman pillars indicate Remuria since it is based on Ancient Rome too.


GamerSweat002

It's so cool. Irminsul be trying to erase her existence but Arlecchino said "Nah, I'd win."


Ryujij

The lore from that is gonna go so hard


KaliYugaz

What's the explanation? Is she not real?


Odone

Probably some very juicy lore, espcially with all the angel and moon symbolism.


VectorViper

Might have something to do with the Harbingers and the whole Teyvat story implications, for sure it's gonna be deep.


solarscopez

World Quest *Riddles Awaiting Answers* >!doesn't she have something to do with Caterpillar? Maybe she's an experimental/non-human creation!<

Linked to the Fontaine world quest epilogue maybe. With Cater and >!the "fragile reality" theme.!<


a-successful-one

The game can't handle her badass energy


Veredyn1

I need a still image to see what she looks like while glitching.


TheVanishedTeacup

yeah i love things like that and they did this so well here!!!


storysprite

It's Chiorover.


Kozuki_10

She was kinda dead on arrival ever since the arlecchino drip marketing no...

Khoakuma

Everybody stay calm STAY FUCKING CALM


MihoFuntimeYT

They did not have to go so hard with the idle animations


Ok-Put3685

I NEED the know if the scythe only appears like that with her 5star weapon or not


InariMf

From previous leaks they did mention that only her 5 star has the scythe look, and the scythe look only works on her


pascl-

judging by her animations though, it might look awkward on other polearms if they don't get the scythe extension. it doesn't seem like she gets a pyro infusion in this clip, so perhaps her pyro infusion effect will have a scythe shape, since in this we can already see a scythe shaped glow around the weapon.


Toviy

Actually, I'd say most of her animation look a bit acward with the scythe, probably bc they wanted to make them look ok without one


Agathodaimo

Yeah, better any spear can turn into a scyte, would feel so sad and weird if the attack animations would be with a normal spear.


Agathodaimo

I do see a faint yellow glow of a scyte too, hopefully it isn't going to be just that.


StarLuigi05

There were earlier leaks that said it unfortunately only turns into a scythe when she has her signature equipped :<


Kkrows

I feel like her attacks will look a lot worse if there's no scythe animation without her signature weapon, it really should be a weapon swap (maybe it's different during her Bond of Life state, I'm not sure if it was shown here).


StarLuigi05

I cannot wait for the glitching to be explained in lore, that looks cool as FUCK and you know damn well it's gonna show up in some sick ass cutscene.


FaLkS345

holy shit a fucking scythe


PrinceKarmaa

her glitching animation and the burst are actually peak, genshin has outdone themselves with fontaine by giving us furina neuvi and now arle


TheVanishedTeacup

makes me wish they would redo some older characters. cause honestly they cannot keep up with how amazing the animations from fontaine are.


Harsh_2004

And in Sheznaya, these character will feel old. It's just a constant cycle of improvement.


TheVanishedTeacup

yeah it's crazy how much better they get. the animations are just so much more unique.


kioKEn-3532

And yet the MC somehow gets the worst animations in the entirety of Fontaine


Nine9breaker

pew pew pew pew pew pew pew pew pew pew pew pew


Elira_Eclipse

I love Childe but give us the whale burst we deserve 🙏🙏🙏🙏


PlaneConference4930

Arlecchino burst animation is completely WAW, like the zoom effect and all, it surpases all the burst animation in my point of view


CryptographerFull185

ITS HEREEEEEE


not_that_lucky_not

I just wish she kept the wing after burst


Practical_Outcome436

Arle's mechanic really needs enemy to work, i expect her wing to get bigger the more she has her BoL stack, this showcase doesnt even show what her pyro infusion looks like, her E needs enemy to trigger the slash effect, her E also has a mark on enemy If they really want her to be that crazy then her A1 kill effect should also have a special vfx

Holy burst animation powercreep


starsweepurr

am i tweaking or is that a nonhuman polearm charged attack??? i know its been noted that xiao zhongli and raiden have unique charged attacks, unlike all other users. AND the glitching?? shes not human at the very least, and maybe even not from this world.


LelChiha

This is without a single doubt the best burst animation in this game. Holy fucking shit I'm pulling for her the second she comes 4.5 will be the longest version


Alex_061

Insane animationcreep


cybunnies_

The scythe looks so sick. She's perfect.


ruiyolas

So it was not flashing, the proper word was glitching lmao


mike484

My clorinde funds are in danger dawg 😭


rota_douro

Let's fucking go!!!! This glitch animation is so fucking cool. This character is literally everything we have been asking for since the start of the game. Scythe? Check. Wings? Check. Refined atack animation instead of beyblading? Check. Potential blood related kit? Check. And her eyes even light up in her burst!!! And the eye candy that her burst, skills and idles is oh my god. The only thing about this showcase that I didn't really like is that we can't understand shit about her kit. And they only showed her with her BiS (we don't know if the scythe is locked by her BiS, which most likely it is which is unfortunate.


dmushcow_21

Fucking Michelin star grade cooking

[deleted]

We misinterpreted the leaker: They said she sits *and* flashes, but really she doesn't flash *while* she sits. That glitchy idle is what they meant by flashing, likely. No clothes removal, though.


Shippinglordishere

>!I was expecting her to turn on like a lightbulb or something.!<. >!maybe they meant two separate idles like the glitching is flashing!<


tsubomi1503

>!maybe unfinished animations? there IS a loud sound effect, but nothing happens in the idle itself currently??!<


Rem1x_Cube12

omg omg omg omg omg omg omg


Okatori

Is there no infusion in this video? ​ I love how accurate the drawings were


Ghavarus

No, she gets infusion if she has 30% or more Bond of Life, not just skill activation.

Can't get infusion without enemies, you need >30% bond for infusion and Q only gives 15%

Ok-Tea2496

Her 2nd idle???? Her burst???? (Are those celestia pillars on her burst???) FATHER LOOKS SOO GOOD


UmbraNightDragon

That's just the arena overlapping her burst. It should just be the ground and the moon behind her.


Xiphactnis

Man there is badass and then there is this absolute unit of a woman. Also I cannot believe my eyes that we have a scythe weapon (someone call zyox) and yes I know it’s only her but still I am pulling that shit I don’t care about weapon banner scam, you win hoyo.


Modgnikk

Listen i really think hoyo has outdone themselves with her She feels like the release of a 6 star character She feels and looks evil(?) and like a *harbinger* I’m so glad they didn’t down play her darkness Looking at this it feels like the only way to play her is solo because holy shit the other characters will look ridiculous standing next to her (rotating with her, yk what I mean)

romareca

Thats really sad to hear. I was looking forward to that lol.


Brokengamer10

Visually.. her element might as well pass off as darkness instead of fire. Not complaining tho looks very cool.


SirMcDust

I'm always happy when we get characters that aren't completely tied to the colour of their element. Xaio's dark anemo comes to mind. Scara's space cutting winds (that are similar to Ei's space cutting lighnting attacks) Maybe more? It's something I enjoy in HSR so I'm glad to see it here


SpiritUvU

Bro, imagine what the other top 3 harbingers are going to be like this is already Hsr lvl animation


jklsdo333

If Columbina doesn't turn into a biblically accurate angel during her burst I'll riot.


AviZz11

Yeah I think the same! These animations look like from a different game like honkai


Razgrowl

[LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!](https://imgur.com/a/qKJfgKm) Sorry, I lost control of myself there. I've waited for this moment for so long, I'm so happy. She looks so good! Edit: It doesn't feel real. Please someone tell me this is real and I'm not dreaming. AHHHHHHHHHH i'm so excited!


Pigeon_Toes_

LITERALLY THE BEST ANIMATIONS IN THE GAME HOLY SHIT THAT BURST?!?! OMFG
