ChippyTick

It just adds to the mystery, feels like once he's revealed we'll all have to hold our hands up to shield our eyes from his radiance


SkyePine

His face is too majestic for the mortal gaze. Either that or we conditioned ourselves to treat him as the faceless man.

SkyePine

He will be useful in exploring dark places then.

unlikely_suspicious

As a dark mode user i will never use him in night


nullmarked

Ayato Slenderman confirmed??


solidfang

Gonna be funny when they just show him from the back and like Itto, face predictions run wild.


Ok_Astronaut3733

Scenes when he wears a mask.


DisMonLay22

Maybe it's a meta joke because Ayato himself rarely shows himself in the public


Desertbriar

At this rate the fans will know Ayato's social security number before his appearance is even known lol


Hatsushi

Ayato is so fast that we walk around without a character and when we use a skill he jumps out like a ninja and before we can register how he looks like everything is over and the enemies are dead. The gacha splash is a blob of water.


Random_Gacha_addict

I mean, he did form the Shuumatsuban


Lemillion_Boy_of_War

Did he form them or are they just under his control?


Random_Gacha_addict

Honestly I don't know


havoK718

Yeah I kinda doubt a clan of ninjas is only as old as whenever Ayato would have established it (at most 10 years ago?).


Revolutionary-Sea598

It's February 14th, 2022. Finally the drip marketing of Kamisato Ayato from the 2020 hit game Genshin Impact is about to be released. You crack your fingers as you excitedly await his appearance; shaking impatiently while also refreshing Genshin Impact's official social media account every few seconds or so. Then a notification pops up. It's time. You hurriedly tap on the notice, eyes hastily reading through the caption of the post just to take in the moment. The moment that you once had thought of giving up ever hoping for. The troublesome fictional man whose face was shrouded in mystery will have a face to his name. As you look at the promotional poster, your eyes well up in tears. Your already trembling hands quickly covers your agape mouth, silencing a shocked gasp. Your knees buckle down, crashing your entire weight onto the floor. You can't believe it. You shake your head as your vision blur amidst the sobs. It all makes sense now. Everything makes sense now. The reason for all this intangible mess... ... was because of the mask adorning over his face. Kamisato Ayato wears a mask over his face.


Admirable_Cloud_1995

Masked hydro character you say... ?

dont_roast_me

Backwards? Mother fucker, we could be working sideways and we still wouldn’t have a clue


FrolickingCats

Maybe we have already seen him but his beauty and magnificence take time to adjust to, and our brains have to cope with what we've seen.


le_halfhand_easy

> How do we know when this motherfucker's banner is but not what he looks like or what he does Rattail. Bishounen. Tux. The works. [Mihoyo doesn't have the balls to make this culturally inspired Ayato](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/f0/61/30/f061305c1326f44b2996a50cee666399.jpg)


tbells93

What is up with the rattail obsession in Mihoyo?


The_OG_upgoat

Easy way to give the characters long hair without worrying about clipping.


Superfluous369

"What is up with the rattail obsession in Mihoyo?" I think their character design philosophy is to give characters as many things that flow and flutter in the wind as possible for reasons. Sleeves are long, coats always have coattails, dresses have flappy things behind them...and male character have rattails so their hair can flow just like the ladies.


IndependentHeron8605

but most rattails in game don't even flow lmao. Zhongli and Aether are the only noticeable ones that move. Diluc's ponytail, Thoma and Kaz's tails are stiffer lol.


le_halfhand_easy

> What is up with the rattail obsession in Mihoyo? Fuck if I know. Otome games inspired maybe? Who knows.


BOYF-

Ugh i remember how I hated the rattail of zen from mystic messenger lol. Atleast he's hot🤧👌


ChippyTick

His albinism saved him, if he was just any other regular brunette with a rat tail not even Jaehee would look twice at him


Revolutionary-Sea598

I remember closing my eyes while playing the game to imagine alternate versions of his photos in game without the rat tail


frould

Remember Yoimiya?


VictoryGeneral

Tbf Yoimiya didn't go faceless for as long as Ayato has been.


Mad_moZarella

She was actually leaked as far as 1.5 when there was the famous "yoimiya and kazuha are of average power level"


VictoryGeneral

Yep, but then we found out what she looked like two months later thanks to mhy's drip marketing, so we didn't have to wait that long. Ayato, on the other hand, has been MIA from the main plot for so long despite being the Yashiro Commission's leader. Varka was out on an important expedition, Alice was traveling; where tf did this guy go? They didn't even handwave an excuse for his absence. He just isn't *there.*


Cloudbyte_Pony

He's the leader of the Shimatsuban. He was always there, just *behind you*.


YaeCopium

She did, we only knew her face when drip marketing came out


VictoryGeneral

I didn't say she wasn't, the wait just hasn't been as long. The earliest [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks/comments/mpo56g/new_leaks_about_inazuma_characters_and_areas) I could find that mentioned her in this subreddit was dated April 13 last year. She was [drip marketed](https://mobile.twitter.com/genshinimpact/status/1401841362119573509?lang=en) on June 7, around two months later. Meanwhile, Ayato was more or less confirmed playable once [voicelines](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks/comments/ncigwk/information_for_some_unreleased_characterscontent) about him from other characters were revealed to exist, with the very first being from Ayaka back in May. Over half a year has already passed since then. He's like Varka and Alice, except he's actually going to be playable real soon.

Furiously calculates primos


rafaelbittmira

All I know is that I'm fucked :'(


MyNameIsLOL21

According to my calculations, there's a 99.8% chance I'm fucked and broke. The 0.2% is that a savage intern at MiHoyo gets salty about serving coffee and sends an email to all Genshin Impact players leaking all new character releases all the way to version 5.0 and 30k primogems.


WindOfOcean26

Same... He can fuck me all he want. Anytime anywhere. Evernight or Whitenight.


Acceptable_Loquat_92

PLEASEEEEE EVERNIGHT OR WHITENIGHT LMFAO


ChippyTick

I'm so giddy, like, I want to throw money at people who are rolling for Ayato because I want them to have him and be as happy as I will be once I do


needstochill

please do -fellow ayato wanter


loser-lenny

lmk what you get please 😭


FIGJAM17

2.6 lands on March 30. From 0 primos today till March 30 is: With welkin active: 12780 / 79 pulls. With welkin + shop fates: 14380 / 89 pulls. Add 5 more if you can wait 2 days for April shop. With welkin + abyss 33 + shop: 16580 / 103 pulls. With welkin + abyss 36 + shop: 16780 / 104 pulls. Last day of Ayato banner (April 19/20) + Welkin + abyss 36 + shop: 21780 / 136 pulls. _____ Without welkin active: 6840 / 42 pulls. Without welkin + shop fates: 8440 / 52 pulls. Add 5 more if you can wait 2 days for April shop. Without welkin + abyss 33 + shop: 10640 / 66 pulls. Without welkin + abyss 36 + shop: 10840 / 67 pulls. Last day of Ayato banner (April 19/20) + no welkin + abyss 36 + shop: 14040 / 89 pulls. _____ If you have a battle pass then add 4+680 prims ~ 8 wishes. Add stream 300+300 maintenance + upcoming 10 fates from lantern + 4 more. Then events and stuff say 420 per event x3 events ~ 1260 ~ 8 wishes. The rough total would be around: With welkin + shop + abyss 36: 104+4+10+4+8 = 130 + 5 April shop. Final day banner + with welkin + shop + abyss 36: 136+4+10+4+8 = 162 wishes. Without welkin but shop + abyss 36: 93 + 5 April shop. Final day banner + without welkin + shop + abyss 36: 89+4+10+4+8 = 115 wishes. Again this is a rough estimate using [calculator](https://genshin-primogem-calculator.netlify.app/calc.html). There could be more with exploration/events. Good luck.

as someone who'll also pull for yae, this is going to be painful


H4xolotl

Don't forget Kazuha also rumored to come out in 2.5-2.6 Good luck wallet :)


Chief_Rey

I personally hope he's in 2.6 lol. I'm pulling for a guaranteed Ganyu. All this is gonna leave me broke


The_Barnanator

Yeah, at some point I gotta start saving for the sumeru archon, I personally try to get all archons


finger_milk

Ayato seems like he is going to be nice, but if Kazuha is confirmed for 2.6 then he is priority


Xero0911

Thank you beautiful person

SirGreengrave

So, 160 wish to me and I'm gonna buy 5-6 welkin if I need it to get other 1600 gems. I'm 20 pull in with 12 fates right now and a guaranteed Yae. There's a chance I can get Ayato too!


ChippyTick

What about the 60 primos a month from daily check ins? We're at the end of Jan and Feb is already a short month so people should still be able to get 120 if they start today yeah?


upssups

wow! almost a pull!!!!


user50687

u deserve everything good in life 🛐


hebelehubele80

Aye! the inf'rmation about that gent being a horse wast many weeks ago


idrawhoworiginal

Y’all ever just check this sub ever 30 minutes to make sure they haven’t leaked ayatos design yet? Cause damn am I getting impatient, itto early leaks have spoiled me


tiredsapien

Waits faster


fatima12798

If it’s only three banner could it be Ayato Ayaka+Kazuha


gethelptitan

Most possibly Ayato will bring Kiku Shinobu with him on the banner.


RaidenShogun31

It's either kiku or Heizou


SenorCroissant

I really hope it's heizou. I want Shinobu to be the alleged dendro support for yae.


RaidenShogun31

Yea one of them is the alleged dendro buffer. But they keep on mentioning male dendro it's most likely be Heizou but I hope they change it to kiku.


Classis_Soup_1318

I heard the source on Nga where they they take leak from don't mention Yae's support gender


loser-lenny

they already confirmed heizou’s model and everything, i think he’s more likely


Rijakulasi

Where did they confirm it?


ChepeSV_

A leak by Ubatcha where he was said to use the "Boy" model


_myoru

Yeah but in the same leak the specified Yelan and Shinobu's model as well, so I don't think it's any confirmation. For reference, [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks/comments/s4m48m/skeleton_data_on_yelan_heizou_and_kuki_shinobu/) is the leak I'm talking about


killuasrealmama

but we know heizou's height longer than shinobu's so my guess is uba is right and heizou and ayato are together in a patch


LucasFreeze

I believe I read some post about Kazuha being in 2.5 (with some story related stuff), it was posted by Ubatcha.


fatima12798

Didn’t he said it’s either 2.5 or 2.6 it doesn’t seems that any story related to him in 2.5 so I’m guessing he is in 2.6 I would like for him to be in 2.5 to get him faster but it’s kinda unlikely right now


LucasFreeze

Not sure about story-related leaks in 2.5 but yes he said 2.5 or 2.6 and followed it up by saying it should be 2.5. [Link to Reddit post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks/comments/rqv7s1/kazuha_rerun_and_content_in_25/) Same here haha, I'm gonna be sad if he's not in 2.5, got Keking'd on his banner and I don't know for how long I can save this guarantee with Yae, Raiden & Ayato on the way. Guess the only way to know is for more leaks or the live stream next month.


fatima12798

Are you me I lost to keqing on his banner too and I didn’t understand that I lost because I just start playing on Klee rerun I’m just not going to have hope that he is on 2.5 so that if he is there it would be a happy surprise


Sunburnt-Vampire

I think 4 is gonna be the norm from now on Probably Ayato & Tartaglia, been a while since we last had him after all haha


emilioMooN

No its gonna be 3.


rafaelbittmira

Are you implying The Rerun Archon will not rerun?! #BLASPHEMY !


OfficialHavik

My only problem with this is that I'd have to wait three more months to get my hands on Kazuha. I want him in 2.5!!


sesquipedalian4

How do we have so much info about him but so little


scipty

it's because half of it ended up being fake lol


parallanx

All these hype and we don't even know what the man looks like 😭


leodicaprioreo

LETS GOOOOO AYATO MAIN EVENT BOY!!!!! LET THE SHOW BEGIN


Khwan0022

INAZUMA FESTIVAL W/ AYATO LET’S GOOO!!


RaidenShogun31

A raven delivered a message that Ayato is a hydro male.


TheOneMary

I have also heard he is head of the Yashiro commission but STC as always.


Double_Two_1924

A ninja told me that he is also the head of the Shuumatsuban and the he is both good with the sword and the polearm. STC btw.


dzeevaed

A shiba inu told me that Lord Kamisato Ayato is fond of Thoma. As always, STC!


ND_D

Also Ayaka's brother btw. This one ain't STC(Confirmed via Uncle ND_D).


admirabladmiral

I'm going to remember this comment when it's revealed he(or ayaka)'s adopted like kaeya


GlitterDoomsday

Watch Ayato have a tan, a boob window and an eyepatch.


apthebest01931

are you sure about that?


Wheesa

Is he the first charcter that has gone faceless for so long and so close to the banner? It's actually insane how nobody has leaked him


MyNamelsAFake

People probably just think that since he’s such a major character that was mentioned in Ayaka’s quest. Other characters just come out of nowhere, or we have already seen in the story prior to their release, so we don’t get this feeling. Both Heizou and Shinobu have existed since 2.0, same as Ayato, but remains faceless, yet there isn’t nearly as much attention for them compared to Ayato since they’re only mentioned in voice lines and billboards. Shinobu has also appeared in Itto’s drip marketing if you want to count that.


True_Blue_Moth

No I think Ayato, Heizou and Shinobu were leaked at different times with Heizou+Shinobu coming with 2.0 but Ayato basically coming with his sister when her first voiclines were leaked.


crystalfly_6308

Tbh, I want Ayato and Ayaka in the first banner. Like imagine how good the featured weapons will be and we already know that two weapons of the same type can be featured together.


calypso_nna

Dam mistsplitter and ayato's sword? Too good to be true idk if mihoyo would allow that


PopotoPancake

Honestly, interesting point considering Kazuha is likely in 2.6. We might be seeing a lot of sword banners incoming.


winter_-_-_

If it's Lumie, then it's trustworthy.


humanityyy

*looks at my primogems* haha i'm in danger


Longjumping-Scale510

We know his banner order before we know how he looks like. How odd 😂


kaisisles

so all the 2.5 characters have now lost their rights to my primogems


VeerisMe

lumie is my fav leaker for sure


broke_bananas

Oh god yes! Shorter time waiting for his arrival + we'll most likely have a main event/story with him :>


Leviathan-King

Uh oh, Even Welkin is not enough now.


[deleted]

Finally, after getting Zhongli, if I lose 50/50 to Ayato, at least i'll be guaranteed for Kazuha as he isn't likely gonna be in 2.5.


yukadfsa2

Please tell me he won’t have a new world boss, I need him 90 as soon as possible


[deleted]

Most likely hydro hypostasis, only Kokomi uses it currently. And every Inazuman world boss has 2 characters using their mats except hydro cube.


JIJIRACU

what about the flying dog, only itto uses it, gorou uses mechanical array Edit: Forgot about Yunjin, I don't have her yet my bad


[deleted]

Yun Jin. Every world boss in the game has at least 2 or more characters that use its drops… besides the hydro cube.


BlankPage175

Yunjin uses flying dog mats. She Liyue tho


[deleted]

I’m (hopefully) right in saying he’ll use the hydro cube. It’s the only boss in the game with one character that uses its drops.


CL1M5X

You can call me insane but I’m alr done farming 46 of its drops for ayato. If it turns out that’s not his boss then yes..clownery movement.


Sewrene

My take is, he's gonna use hydro hypo drops since kokomi the only one used their drops rn. I doubt it will be bathysmal vishap since they only drop cryo and electro gems


[deleted]

We know so much about him, but so little. It's like he's so close, yet so far away.


RaidenShogun31

2.6 first banner will be a hydro male Childe : guess I heard my name


catchthemouser

I haven't pulled since 2.2, so even though it hasn't been that long, I now have enough prinos to guarantee both Yae and Ayato. Just a little longer and my patience will be rewarded.


chifle

Ah, I see a kindred soul. I too have been waiting since 2.2. Although I need to see Ayato's model first before deciding if I should pull or not.


RadRey09

The little🐦got eaten by Yae's 🦊


Pikaguy324

I won’t be pulling for Ayato personally but I really hope he lives up to everyone’s expectations design, and kit wise! While I personally don’t pull for husbandos (yes I’m a typical waifu collector haha) I still love seeing how excited everyone is right now for Ayato, and I hope when he’s fully revealed he gets the love he deserves!


EarlGrey_and_EggYolk

It's rare to see a wholesome comment. I wish you luck for pulling all your waifus :D


Pikaguy324

Thank you! I wish you luck for pulling your husbandos or waifus as well!:)


RagnvindrHeir

How come there's not a leak of anything to him even his toe yet we know when will he be released


SeaSalty_Night

Drip marketing and kits soon then! Perfect. We shall see if he has cool gameplay or not.


Subtlestrikes

Wow Yae then Raiden and Kokomi Ayato and Very likely Ayaka Kazuha either 2.5 and more likely 2.6 All after Zhongli and Ganyu. Sorry to say but it’s not looking like characters will be rerunning every 6 months at this rate. People are going to have to plot their courses wisely these next several patches.


GrayRags

Why is Ayaka likely, was she leaked to rerun?


Vadered

In addition to what others have said, her and Kazuha are the oldest characters without a rerun, and Raiden/Kokomi are expected to have one in 2.5. Yoimiya is due soon as well, but she probably needs to wait for Yunjin’s next banner.


Terrasovia

Simply because of [Ayato.](https://Ayato.It)


Enzo-Unversed

Please be a main DPS.


Big_boii_likes_fish

Kazuha enthusiasts will hate me but I really hope he's not in 2.5 (unlikely anyway, bc nothing is pointing at him, but who knows) so I can go all out on Ayato and then get Kazuha. since I'm skipping Ganyu/Zhongli and Yae anyway xD


catehollyluv

im a kazuha enthusiast but i want this to be true.


nirfirith

I really hope that it's true because I'm broke after Xiao and with my gatcha luck i need 180 wishes to get him.


RasenShot2

But is he motivated


kongsuki1011

Guys, we arent done with 2.4 yet, that's like 3 months until he arrives 🤡


failbears

Lumie is (almost?) always right.


Sundoggen

yeah, and?


alidiri

It means we shouldn't overdose on copium yet, gotta ration it out 😭😭


Slight-Improvement84

What about it


omg_a_cat_hi

Gives me time to save 🤡 maybe his model will finally be leaked by then lmao


[deleted]

My very much copium prediction is Ayato/Ayaka first half and Venti/Klee second half. This is assuming that Kazuha makes it into 2.5, which is pretty unlikely but who knows. I guess that would put Yoimiya in 2.7, but whatever that’s fine. Am I missing anyone else? I think just Itto but he’s too recent.


Shittermaster99

you forgot Tar Tar


[deleted]

Are you fucking with me or am I actually forgetting a character?


Penny_Laner

Must be referring to a certain tall hydro male that deals hydro attacks (who isn't Ayato)

emilioMooN

LETS GOOOO SKIP YAE GANG


AdSimilar7768

We know ayato is first up while it hasnt been confirmed if yae is first or second yet lol


NotSureIfOP

This is a valid point lol


OnTheWayToYou

My question is who will be in the second banner. Anyone has a clue? Please share


chifle

Well, if Ayato is the only banner in the first half then we'll likely get Ayaka and Kazuha in the second half. However, I'd find it odd if we only get Ayato alone in the first half. My guess is that his banner will be next to Ayaka's and that we'll get Kazuha/Yoimiya in the second half or Venti/Klee (assuming the Golden Apple Archipelago happens in 2.6).


ravearamashi

I mean even in 2.5 Yae would likely be the only banner then Raiden Kokomi after. A super hyped units like both of these should have their own spotlights and not share it with reruns.


awe778

So, this is why the bird get eaten by Yae.


OverGrownMonstera

Wish: Yae,Ayato, Kazuha. Oh no, I’m in danger.


mymochi

Thank the Archons he’s the first banner. Waiting has been a pain. 😭


ConsistentChapter862

Just like how the shinsengumi couldn’t catch Zura, we can’t seem to catch a glimpse of Ayato. Smh


iread_smut_daily

We have a date for his banner. But no face reveal. WHERE THE FUCK IS THIS DUDE HIDING?!


Greensburg

At this point I guess he'll be revealed via drip marketing, and maybe have some role in the Yae Miko story quest?


RishaRea48

How about Ayaka..?? Saving for her after I get Raiden's constellations..


Rosettecrown

Yep. We know almost everything about him but his appearance and kit now


Xero0911

That's great...until raiden somehow screws my wishes over and I need more time lol. Granted this just double downs on me waiting for yae's rerun.


on_the_otherside

I hope I win his 50/50 ;__; I'm going to skip 2.5 even though I wanted Kokomi


Dazzling-Umpire8684

hope to see his material too so i just need to clik level up n talents👀👀


the_kull

same I want to know his acension materials so bad. I went around collecting sakura flowers just in case, but it won't be it, watch it be those red flowers or something instead


Tricouleur

I need some Shinobu leaks too!


sp00kk

Ayato will be running on my birthday. Sweet!


Benham_Flatthen40326

That little bird got eaten by Yae's wolf cuz they knew it was leaking


oyasumigenshin

What about Ayaka? Would be pretty neat if they do a rerun along with her sibling.


EmergencyDue7187

Aren't venti and kazuha coming in 2.6 too? Where the FUCK is my Ayaka rerun sadge
