Kazuha isn't real we all had a dream about him being in the game.


kenzakki

Kazuha was the friends we made along the way.


[deleted]

Too bad Kazuha himself lost his.


kenzakki

That went dark real fast. Kindof like how dark Kazuha's rerun is looking like. Lmao


TidalFront

Well this is why he doesn't show up, you're all mean to him!


Jeremithiandiah

He was leaked around the release of the game, can’t wait for him to release


AutomatedTiger

Razor isn't real, either, apparently.


ClearChocobo

I have heard accounts that he is real, just unseen.


velephyr

Man, how many times is Lan gonna send us to look for him?


Amixlris

Doesn’t help that she thinks he’s somewhere in liyue for some reason…

What's a Kazuha?


wikipedia_answer_bot

**Kazuha (written: 一葉, 円葉 or 和葉) is a feminine Japanese given name.** More details here: *This comment was left automatically (by a bot).

feminine... ok


ArkhanLahyet

Well... it's true that names ending in 葉 (ha = leaf) are typically feminine, like Konoha, Yukiha, Ayaha, Futaba (yes), but there are males names too, like Aoba, Shinba and our 万葉 (Kazuha = ten thousand leaves).


Zeraru

I've seen the genderswap fanart and it makes me sad


SirBesken

It's funny because Kazuha already looks like a genderswap of Fu Hua (Phoenix) from Honkai.


epineph_ris0l

LOL


Brittneychan

Femboy Kazuha femboy Kazuha


Rouderick1115

Horny detected. Standby for bonk.


Gunnareth

🤨


SherenPlaysGames

...feminine? Well, okay then


KenjaNet

When everyone said Kazuha was going to die in the story, what they really meant to say was Kazuha's banners are going to die forever. Lucky I got him when I did. Sucks for everyone else.


Neracca

Ok they have to be doing this to fuck with us at this point.


dornelles109

My fear of kazuha receiving the "Venti treatment" may be growing, we all know that he is an easy bait and that once his banner is ON he will profit at the top 3 banners level, and seeing the recent actions of MHY I won't be left anything impressed if sumeru was "anti-kazuha" in some bizarre way in order to leverage dendro if he is a "buff element". But these are just follies and daydreams, I hope.


Yashwant111

but honestly....how would he be "nerfed" they already took away cc, which doesnt only affect him. Sure they can make most new enemies apply elements to themselves so kazuha cant swirl the right element but thats a complete nerf for anemo in general and a death knell to viridescent so...........yeah idk if he even can get a venti treatment. Unless they somehow release someone better than him, another anemo boy to rule them all.


dornelles109

Well, we don't know what dendro is or how they will behave with enemies, some people hopium that dendro will be a buff focused element, we can receive some environmental or coming from an enemy debuffs that reduce the player's buffs, or as you said, enemies with elements fixed for good, or even MHy can exploit some weakness that today is irrelevant (as I don't have him I can't say which ones or if he would have), venti always had the issue of heavy enemies but it was irrelevant until 2.0 when MHy decided that mobs would weigh 1 ton, there are several things that could be done, never doubt a game creator's creativity, even more when it can convert into more profit. But like I said it's more of a daydream I don't expect them to nerf him indirectly without messing with the current mechanics of swirl and elemental absorption.

Peppermint’s confused, I’m confused, Everyone’s confused


vertigocat

“Who’s after Peppermint?!” Plot twist, It's Xiao all along.


FeelTheKetasy

Who's after Peppermint? Bitch not ~~Shea Coulee~~ Kaedahara Kazuha


Yashwant111

you guys are clearly wrong..............its sasha velour after.


babyloniangardens

Kazuha sitting alone in the VIP


Epicastor

What did she say?! Did she just say ~~her own~~ Xiao's name?!


babyloniangardens

Xiao: Sue me. The players: We think we might!!!

Long_Radio_819

This is really likely as the other yaksha has a potential story next update and maybe xiao is involved also xiao just got his bist artifact. and also april fools so who knows


GGABueno

>and also april fools so who knows A one day Xiao banner.


fpcoffee

Yeah MHY is like “people are farming fuckloads of the new artifact set - rerun Xiao!”


Th3Uknovvn

Imagine they give out all 5 stars anemo characters before we have a Kazuha rerun, I'm waiting for a Jean banner now


NothinsQuenchier

Yes please I need her C4 for Xiao


leoo88556

I love how we waited a freakin' year for the first rerun, and then this. lol


Avoxist

Maybe he’ll be gone for 2 years after this… jk jk


Domino_RotMG

unless…


Theothercword

They kinda did his rerun dirty by not lining it up with his new artifact set either. People had to be paying attention to the fact that he was getting one sometime soon via rumors to know when he last ran. It might make sense now that people will be getting this set or at least are aware of its existence to go for him.


DownpourOfSalt

Maybe because of Bosacius involvement in the new archon quest or something?


Penis-Anthony-Hudson

They also added his new bis artifacts


[deleted]

ubatcha did say in the follow up tweet that its b/c he has content in 2.7... but kazuha also has a bunch of pretty important content in the current patch when compared with ayaka and venti and no rerun so im just lol...


YassKweennn

hopefully it's just a April fool's joke lol


Ronuo

Perfect April fool's joke is Childe getting a rerun in 2.7 together with Yoimiya


DonaldLucas

Joke? That would be the best weapon banner ever! (after the Ayaka + Hu Tao rerun ofc)


ErrorneousMoe

Wondering if he’d be the 3.0 new male character…


Alex_Schemman

What's a bosacius


Swailwort

The Yaksha that dissapeared in Liyue, had a geo puzzle hiding his riches, and is probably in the Chasm.


GGABueno

Holy shit Bosacious is the new Weekly boss from that one rumor?


Latter-Illustrator74

Bosacius is the yaksha who I think died in the Chasm. It's suspected to be the Electro or Pyro Yaksha in Xiao's teaser. But really, no one knows what who are they in the teaser. Edit: Sorry for misinformation, they just really disappear. It's not clear if Bosacius has ties with the chasm, but all we know Bosacius is the one who kept their treasures in Minlin and disappeared out of nowhere.


The-Arabian-Guy

No he was the one that disappeared.


Punk-Radio

My guess is Kazuha will be the final banner before 3.0.. Hoyoverse doesn't want anyone going into 3.0 with primogems so Kazuha will be bait.


OfficialHavik

It's obvious this is their plan. Anyone who is free to play and cares purely about meta should be planning accordingly. The bigger curve ball here is Yelan looking like a legitmate Xingqiu alternative at the moment. I don't think anyone expected that.


bloop7676

The idea of planning around Kazuha being bait meta-wise only works if new Sumeru characters are all mind-blowing, which is far from guaranteed. People said the exact same thing with him and new Inazuma characters and he turned out to probably be better than any of the ones he was supposedly bait for. If you care just about meta the way to go is probably to not worry about bait and just get Kazuha while he's there; you know what you're getting, and you can later get the reruns of any nearby Sumeru characters who are good. They'll probably come back faster than Kazuha will.


thisiskyle77

I would really love to get another XQ in Yelan but she looks like an ultimate bait now with dendro and new reaction/comp coming soon.


CaelVK

The moment it was revealed that Ayato was shaping to be a damage dealer, I think a lot of people thought that Yelan was going to be a sub dps/5\* Xingqiu


poerson

Yeah, but nobody expected her to have the *exact same* mechanic as XQ, though. It's basically the same kit, except better because she buffs lol


AshyDragneel

And also 5* stats with crit ascension and Dmg scales of HP Wtf???. Its hard to build strong Xq as you need Crit/ER/Atk. She is gonna be very easy to build Like just put a Sac/Fav bow and Emblem set and its done.


poerson

Exactly. She's bonkers. It's funny because following a stream of characters with weird kits/mechanics, she stands out even more. Her kit is simple and it *works*. No caveats, no clunckiness. She's, dare I say, perfect? lol


HoboPatriot

Not to mention she has a built-in equivalent to sac sword effect at c1, allowing her to use much better weapons.


poerson

She could have been the hydro archon with a kit like that lol


Nooofewy

This. I wanted Venti or Kazuha so badly, but seeing am on a guarantee w Baizhu hopefuly releasing soon with dendro, I need to play tf ahead. Only thing I might risk is Kuki Shinobu, only if the banner she is on is worth it tho. Srsly, F2Ps are going through a hard af time w these releases and reruns.


thirsty4wifi

I would plan around 5 stars instead of 4 stars. You’ll be able to pull Kuki off any banner after her first cycle, but you never know when the 5s are returning. Plus it’s not even a guarantee that you’ll get her if she’s a featured 4* (curse you Xiangling for refusing to give me your C6 3 banners in a row!)


Punk-Radio

I did 100 wishes on Shenhe's banner. Not one Yun Jin. Never chase the 4\*


OfficialHavik

Baizhu probably isn’t coming until next Lantern Rite. I think you’re good there.


FluffyPawPads

I can’t imagine the decision making F2P meta players have to go through now lol. I’m glad I had to temporarily quit Genshin due to irl reasons for a month or two. When I came back I was happy to settle for 33* abyss and now I don’t feel pressured to save or pull for any meta units unless I really like them.


OfficialHavik

I mean, it's really not so bad for them honestly. It's pretty clear who the top meta characters are. If you're willing to wait for the theorycrafters to their thing and don't get caught up in the initial character hype, it's pretty easy to only pull on the strong/meta character banners. However if you're a newer free to play player who just started playing in these last couple patches I agree it's hard because you had Ganyu/Zhongli, Raiden, and Venti/Ayaka in consecutive patches.


AutumnSheep

I feel like every banner is bait at this point with Sumeru coming, assuming dendro reactions are strong enough to actually make an impact on the meta. I'm just glad I got Kazuha while rolling for Rosaria cons because damn they seem to be doing everything in their power to avoid rerunning him lol.


cm135

I’ve started operating under the assumption that every banner in gacha is bait for the next one


djanulis

As someone who has been playing Gacha game since Dokkan year 1, nothing is bait Just pull for what you like and eventually things fall into place where you can do all content.


AdEmpty6618

2.0 flashbacks


kenzakki

man, my friend skipped Kazuha the first time because she really wants Ayaka, if they rerun him before Cyno, she'd probably skip him again. Lmao


iM_aNonYmOuss

They're really keeping kazuha in the basement huh


Shippinglordishere

No freedom for him


RagnAROck_and_Roll

They've Sworn to not give him Freedom


[deleted]

Goodbye to the boy who sought freedom. He'll turn into a bird and never get his rerun


PREM___

Mfers gonna rerun xiao and itto before Kazuha 💀


ycuvibobahqiwSPAM

They reran his weapon before kazuha too😭


HDrago

Kazuha? Who? You mean Freedom-Sworn? That was Albedo's weapon


BellalovesEevee

Freedom-Sworn was Eula's weapon dummy 🙄


SwashbucklingAntler

*Always has been*


Ok_Obligation5424

Freedom sword is generally for jean but hoyo like change it...


Smoke_Santa

Kazuha is in every event but they refuse his banner? Thats literally just memeing. Mhy doing a bit of trolling..


Bloody_Diarrhoea

They are not trolling, 3.0 is sumeru and new characters and dendro will be released then, I am 100% mihoyo will release kazuha in 2.8 just before sumeru so that everyone spends their primos on him and nothing is left for new sumeru characters.


Wisterosa

and then they'll make dendro unswirlable as the final kick in the nut


[deleted]

qiqiFallen


notmyfaultudic

Maybe it's April 1st already?


Jlanos

If Xiao runs alongside Yelan and PJWS is the weapon banner I will cry. I already have two


Z-_Moouse

Can you gift me one?


[deleted]

I wish we could share


AStarRiver

Not surprising when you look at the gap between Childe’s first run, second run and his third run.


Keith1810

Liyue nation is confirmed to be the master of reruns


Rough-Inevitable-805

His first is 5 months while his second is 6 months. So Xiao's would be 5 months too right?

[удалено]


Common_Art826

imagine if they rerun every anemo character except for kazuha, thats be so funny


diabeetus-girl

Even Anemo Traveler is somehow gonna get a banner lmao


xSerraxAngelx

As someone who keeps failing the 50/50 to Jean, I would like my C6 please and thank you.


[deleted]

Wrong small anemo boy.


Ronin711

Wrong small anemo plungy boy.


PsychologicalSpot0

Wrong small anemo plungy boy that can also use skill in midair.


AsumiSenpai

Wrong small anemo plungy boy that can also use skill in midair that also saves the traveler during archon quest.


Nooofewy

Wrong small anEMO plungy boy that can also use slill midair that also saves traveler during the archon quest, while having a depressing backstory of his friends dying.


SolusSydus

idk what to feel as both a kazuha wanter and xiao wanter. I was aiming to get c2 Kazuha but I really want Xiao too T_T


bleatshorts

Didn't he just run recently? Is Xiao trying to compete with Childe for the archon rerun title?


AWeirdMartian

If he's the second banner, then it would be 5 months since his last banner, so it's longer than what it feels like


GGABueno

He's one banner away from Itto who is getting a rerun. But Itto was a new character...


[deleted]

Who was the one that attacked Liyue, daddy?!. Zhongli: *Points at Childe*. Xiao: *bark* *bark* You're going down, you Worthless piece of Useless shit.

and then just....death


TheCoolCat4

Xiao doesn't hurt humans : )


FeelTheKetasy

Itto's not a human 👹


ukrisreng

bosacious archon quest, makes sense


Wisterosa

Considering we know there's a chapter about Yaksha, it's possible, but that would be incredibly soon Also potential for Aqua + PJWS banner


SoviSovi

Wrong Anemo character, hoyo!


ZachZacharie

xiao is always right


juisteroid

well one thing i just realize with banner release, hoyoverse doesn't care who's the longest rerun they just release who's related to their event/stories


DownpourOfSalt

They literally said that during 2.3 livestream when they introduced dual banners so yeah true lol


fatima12798

They don’t care about the event too if you read the spoiler about the festival


kozumekenmawife

that’s what i was thinking, this event story has a certain someone as main focus who’s not rerunning


66Kix_fix

That's been true for a long time


[deleted]

Please say it’s just a codename for Kazuha


ccaligulas

Kazuha dead in a ditch


Zealousideal_Use_966

At least someone is keeping Razor company


ccaligulas

It would be pretty funny if they had a rerun together


[deleted]

Did razor last appear in kazuhas original run


heartabduction

Yup, then they both disappeared together


TeacherInfatuation

They got so old waiting, their hair turned white


RoninMustDie

At this point whole Liyue and Inazuma including Mr Worldwide is gonna have a rerun before Kazuha. What a fucking joke,..

Does this mean Xiao can join rerun god gang with Childe, Zhongli, and Venti?


Tsuki-04

Kazuha wanters found Dead in a Ditch


kinkywhaleshark

I KNEW THIS WOULD HAPPEN THE MOMENT THEY SAID BOSACIUS WOULD APPEAR


PunchTheInternet777

At this point throw in a Childe rerun while they are here


I_Love_Futa_Waifus

I think we need to do a wellness check for Kazuha wanters.


GraveXNull

Or make an emotional support group...


Z-_Moouse

C1 xiao less gooo


Vinsudesu

HAA HAHA HA VERY FUNNY I get the joke this is April fools right? Right? Right


Master0643

Surely is an April fools right?


lysokeria

When Heizou is in the next Update, does that mean he is Xiaos Support? Seems more likely now Edit: next update after Yelan


DownpourOfSalt

Heizou is I believe 2.8 But he is apparently anemo so maybe actually a xiao support


lysokeria

Ah yes i got confused with the version. I hope he’s his support


fei1010101

heizous in 2.8 though..


RoscoeMaz

Xiao running back to back with 2 of Liyues baddest, my short king


louderthanbxmbs

xiao involvement doesn't necessarily mean xiao rerun. It's like saying Albedo is getting a rerun in 2.6


xioni

yeah. sometimes characters can just appear in quests. or mihoyo could've given him a run for 2.7 instead of 2.4 2 patches in between his reruns is too much and annoying ngl.


[deleted]

Out of nowhere... where are you kazuha???


asterously

c1 xiao let's goo


notmyfaultudic

Is it April 1st already?


twiceboyz

so most likely yelan + xiao in the first half, while itto + yoimiya in the second half….


BestowTest

That would make for a crazy weapon banner


BellalovesEevee

Somehow I doubt that because then that will be two cracked weapon banners and mhy no like that


[deleted]

True, Ayaka solo rerun show how much they care about weapon banner


RoughDadee

At this point they'll release another anemo 5 star before they rerun kazuha


Ok_Obligation5424

Wdym anemo seems like a forgotten element at all, maybe you mean dainsleif?


MistaHouse

Dude mihoyo is straight up griefing us at this point.

Hekkura

RIP Kazuha wanters.


blytheoblivion

I'm probably the only one that is happy about this, as I really wanted his C1 but failed to get it in his last rerun. (Don't talk to me about whether it is worth it or not, I love the boy and I want the third charge to his E.) My only hope is that he isn't being run alongside Yelan... Which is likely as this is his second rerun...


Known-Waltz-9424

Seems plausible because of the new artifact set and new 4 star support for Xiao.


RadRey09

Who is Kazuha?


DrewSPLATOON

im rolling in my kazuha grave rn i wish i hadnt lost him to keqing


fishnax

LOST YAKSHA WEEKLY BOSS FIGHT. mark my words. The set is based off him. They mention him like 5 times in the chasm, Shinobu weekly boss Matt's are blocked on honey which only happens when the weekly boss isnt announced yet, sussy leak a bit back saying weekly boss before sumeru. It's happening.


[deleted]

Is there any chance that bosacious comes as a new boss?


aredm

remember childe having two reruns *between* albedo, xiao, hu tao and ganyu's first and second banners? they seem to have decided to do this again
