After Alhaitham's clever part of the plan went smoothly, it was now Nilou's turn to proceed. With help from her friends at the Zubayr Theater, she managed to set up a performance stage at the plaza in front of the Akademiya and began dancing. Aside from distracting the people, her performance will trigger the Grand Sage to execute an order to the Akasha which is what the group was planning all along. This English cutscene recorded in full length and in HD quality is part of the Sumeru Archon Quest Chapter III: Act V officially titled "Akasha Pulses, the Kalpa Flame Rises" with a subpart titled "Jnagarbha Day".

"Should we stop her?"
"Erm..no...let's watch a little longer"
lmao I love that part
they are simps.
My mind be like during that part: ayo the guards simping 😂
Lmao if I were the guard I wouldn't stop her she's too kawaii
@@user-38rufhoerh3id Same I yelled "HAAAAH SIMPS!"
It give me fire nation soldiers vibes lol
I love when the scene turns into akasha terminal scene with teyvat language. The scene shift is so cool
i love that part so much
@@towalysia the way the music starting to peak up also hypes the scene so much
I really love that part too, adds to the heat of the moment. And I think those are sumeru scripts.
Just a fun fact in case u didnt know:
Writings found in inazuma are in teyvat version of japanese hiragana, liyue writings in teyvat version of chinese characters, sumeru are in characters similar to Devanagari meanwhile in the desert it's a whole different script used inspired from egyptian hieroglyphs. Mondstadt uses the universal teyvat script which are used in tutorials, but combined with few mondstadt unique and special characters here and there.
Such an underrated yet powerful moment. With the flow of Nilou's dance and the flow of the music, the plan flows too. My favourite part in all of this!
She was so brave for this! And to think she was a last-minute addition to the team!
It was always the plan to have someone perform in public to initiate the "new" Akasha laws, but the person being Nilou was last minute yes
Wait, Alhaitam said that he was looking for her when Nilou approached them during the meeting in Grand Bazzar. And they are all went to Grand Bazzar, isn't it because they want to find Nilou and make her perform? Nilou was always in the plan, they just haven't find a way to told her yet
And after Nilou dance cutscene, there's a flashback of the meeting in Aaru village which dehya recommends Nilou to be performing in public for their plan
@@pipilili6241 Doesn't change the fact that she knew the plan a few minutes before the plan started
@@gajaan316 so like they said ... she was a last minute addition to the team .. i don't see the point of your comment
Maybe she was a last minute addition.
But she was the one who made the whole plan work. Without Nilou, Nahida's rescue would had been a complete failure.
I love how they show that the students (and guards as well) liked the performance. Like, the akademiya looked down on art for so long and pushed it down, but when the students actually see it with their own eyes, they have nothing else to say except how amazing it is. Even the guards didn’t want to stop her lol.
Setaria's here too.
I think only the higher ups that think that way.
@@acepsuracep8738 most definitely from what I've seen
It's the poisoning influence of the sages. They have a single-minded obsession with the pursuit of wisdom and deem the arts to be a deterrence in said pursuit. Consequently the students and guards feign that they have no interest in such things in order to prove their commitment. Nahida said the same thing regarding dreams earlier on, that even though their dreams are supposed to be siphoned by the Akasha, sometimes people do remember their dreams to an extent but don't acknowledge as much because dreams, as stated by the sages, are supposedly frivolous and illogical, so the absence of dreams is an indication of the development of wisdom. In this case, Nilou's performance is so moving, though, that they can't pretend to not appreciate it like they normally do.
@@serenepogi it's not her , it's an npc who is in the entrance, she gives us info about the place, yeah they look awfully similar but I mean remember there are 3 npcs in Mondstadt plaza who look like triplets
I didn't even notice before, but SETARIA is there too!! Which means that _this_ is the performance she saw from Nilou that she thought was so beautiful. I was wondering, since she had never seen the Dance of Sabzerus in the Samsara.
Oh god now that you mention it 🤯
I don't think that girl with blue hair is Setaria, she has white skin. Plus, Dottore said that Setaria was put in jail, she couldn't just stand outside of Akademiya.
@@АнастасияМалая-х5э but there were no other performances by Nilou that she could have seen to later ask the traveler to compliment Nilou for her dancing.
@@АнастасияМалая-х5э I had thought it strange, too, that she'd be out here after having been put in jail; quite honestly, I wouldn't have an answer for this. It could be that she was let out during Jnagarbha day, as one of the close members of Azar's entourage. But regardless, this is indeed the same model for Setaria, with just perhaps different lighting than we'd seen her in before. After all, she's the only character we meet with that outfit, those eyes, the hair and the laurel wreath on her head.
I like how this civil war was actually more on a covert undertaking than inazuma's all out war rebellion
And imo it was executed way better. The tension was palpable and more importantly, you could feel and see every character’s role. In the inazuma archon quest you were told that kokomi was smart, for example. In this one, you were SHOWN alhaithem’s plan and SHOWN how smart it was. Show not tell, great improvement
The contrast between brute strength and pure intellect made for a great change of pace. Brings a good sense of balance to the narrative. Lots of consideration went into creating themes that actually parallel wisdom/sagacity. Love it!
persona 5 vibes from this fucking archon quest. too good
Because in Inazuma, you were fighting a god. In Sumeru, you're fighting people who think they can play god.
In Inazuma the story was sadly rushed (they tried to fit everything in three acts. In Sumeru they learnt their lesson and did five acts) and too much time was, honestly, weirdly distributed. My guess is that they had to rush it and the Genshin focused part of the company had problems.(there were rumors that the writer of the first two archon quests didn’t work there anymore. Not sure if this is real)
I guess if we had five acts it would have been:
ACT I: Make it end on the part we save Thoma from the Shogun.
ACT II: Go to the resistance in Watatsumi. Meet Gorou and Teppei. Resistance stuff and politics?
ACT III: More focus on the resistance and other stuff. Teppei experiences Rigor Mortis
ACT IV: Back to Inazuma city, maybe make the battle against Signora on ACT IV or V.
ACT V: Battle against the Raiden shogun. Resistance would help more somehow.
I also think that it didn’t help how Ayato didn’t appear at all, seeing that we later learn he’s very involved on the plot’s development. There was too much focus on having cute moments with characters to make us bond, and it could have worked well with even four acts, but in three acts it feels like a distribution of 60/100 to things that weren’t really needed.
this scene makes nilou even more badass than she already is! love the fact that her dance is used to both distract the guards and a huge middle finger to the sages!
With Cyno's power, Alhaitham's brain and Nilou's beauty this plan would never fail
Cyno is powerful than alhaitham in lore?
Not suprise
But alhaitham smarter
I guess
and traveler's plot armor
And traveler's dull blade
And nahihi's domain expansion
Damn, they all forgot about Dehya and the Eremites that helps us.
Love how those two guards essentially said "no no wait, let her cook"
come here for countless times because the soundtrack this time was amazing
Yes!!! I love this melody, it plays in the Sanctuary of Surasthana and 3.1 animated cutscene, glad to see a more cheerful version with Nilou's dance.
@@awesomemilkshake6612 dont forget at sunrise too, that's the first time we ever hear it in the game
@@sergipalfar9076Nilou's teaser too
coming from a persian!!
0:44
nilou being persian and the dance being banned actually really represents a lot lol. in iran public dancing is banned and its also banned in this quest !! i just think that's a really cool concept added into the quest.
Hoyoversw literally has show the republic of islamic shit
And the azar is based on khamenei the superme leader of iran
(Im persian too)
I 100% think Nilou represents the persecution of art and freedom under certain regimes
Mhm
I love that both times we see Nilou dance on screen she was giving the sages the fattest middle finger. We love a revolutionary queen.
She is literally the prettiest 😭 the performance was priceless and emotional and in my opinion top 5 moments in all archon quest ✨

*canon*

Nah, this was basically just a fanservice scene, nothing special. Yun Jin's performance had *A LOT* more weight to it.
Sorta random thing I noticed: The guard who's not as willing to arrest Nilou is also slower to react to the Akasha's announcement, while the one who asks if they should stop her reacts quicker!
Omg thats so cool!!
0:52-0:54 HER TWIRLING AND SMILE GETS ME EVERYTIME
i really liked that we were able to walk and interact with NPCs as her just before this cutscene! it felt like things were actually happening where traveler wasn't involved instead of it just skipping to a cutscene and the character being like "oh yeah, i did this btw" hope we get more like this in the future :D
Sadly, my game glitched on most of the cinematic cutscenes of this arc. This scene, the ending of Scaramouche's fight, and the ending of Rukkhadevata never played for me, and I missed out on so many amazing cutscenes that I was really looking forward to since this update came out. 3:
@@TrueNoirChloeMoko same :,) old phone problems. thankfully people upload them onto youtube, like this video, so i can watch it, but it isn’t the same yk?
@@nightm1me Unfortunately, I was playing on my PS4 because I like saving the cutscenes on the harddrive to rewatch. I started to save them right before we snuck into the church to get the lyre and I have saved all but these 3 cinematic cutscenes at the end of this quest, and it honestly hurts alot more than it should. 3:
0:51 the movement tho
That and the way she turned around and walked in 0:30 , small gestures but dang really amazing
For me its 1:24. Truly elegant movements
Breath-taking.
Devs really did justice to the scene with beautiful and fluid articulation! Super impressive. 👏
i think Nilou is hoyoverse favorite lmao, her cutscenes are so well executed
the CHILLS this cutscene gives me , the way it starts off so stoic and then the music intenses and it says " lesser lord kusanali has escaped from the sanctuary of surasthana " its so MMHMHMHM i love it.
I love the defiance in this. Even apart from the plan. This whole scene screams '' You want to shut me? Never! ''. I love it so much! And it the very reason why it worked so well as a decoy.
It is interesting how Nilou's dance change due to different occasion…
In the festival her dance was gentle and heart warming, in the oasis it was happy and free, but here it becomes teasing and contempting
Hoyoverse surely did a lot of work on traditional arts
Nilou being a distraction- not the one the party needed, but one that the _students_ needed
“Should we stop her?”
“Nah let her cook”
I love how the music isn't really for nilous dance (even though it is) it was more for how the plan was unfolding
At least that's how it felt for me
yess love how it feels more intense than just a dance like yk shits going down behind the scenes
Same here
its Zubayr/Grand Bazaar's theme which is basically Nilou's abode.
@@thewanderingrey8830 Thank you so much! I have been trying to find the title of that song q w q
Exactly. !!
For anyone wondering, the OST isn't out yet T_T
But it's basically an upbeat version of *Fresh Breezes of Dawn*
It's been like 2 OST albums since 3.2 and YET this scene's OST still HASN'T BEEN RELEASED ಠ╭╮ಠ
It's out now on spotify!
It's out now and it's called Inebriation of Raghs-e-Nilou
@@BanditTheShepherd Thanks a ton! It's crazy how many times I've come to this comment section to see if someone tells whether it's been released yet with a hope in my heart lol. Now I can get it!
"Inebriation of Raghs-e-Nilou" is the song's name, released July 2023 in Shimmering Voyage Vol. 3
Oh my the name they put its persian oh my..
lmao I remember a conversation in twt that op saying nilou gonna sacrifice herself then there's this other person said no she's going to dance Infront of the sages, LMAO 😳 and it made op so mad they were fighting like crazy yeesh 😂
And Scaramouch is the reason nahida cried😂
Lol they fooled us
Kidz these days
One can view this as Nilou doing her part to help Nahida and the others, but it's also her giving a proverbial middle finger to Azar's "no arts" decree.
I took a break from genshin for awhile because my phone couldn't carry it anymore.. But now i'm back and I finally got to see my nilou's performance in the game.. And it brings me so much joy... Oh how I love the wonderful world of Teyvat !! 🎀
omg tsukimi pfp
The fact they are making plans together to help nahida is exciting,i love genshin story
Nilou: JUST BE CALM JUST BE CALM
I know I'm late to the party but Sumeru's archon quest was so perfect...
As a Persian, I was impressed to see her dance resemble my culture, i was so happy when i found out. good job hoyo
HoYo I know you've been making Nilou dancing cutscenes for every patch so I REALLY hope you keep this up 'cause I am all for it, here's to more Nilou dancing cutscenes! Cheers!!
For anyone wondering, the Music in the Cutscene is called Inebriation of Raghs-e-Nilou
Inebriation of Raghs-e-Nilou, it was just released
The entire arc had a build up like that of a Tarantino movie. Every little thing mattered and was used to full potential.
Writers really upped their game this time
love how khaldun and yavanani are there too lmao. (they’re the two arguing students who appear at the akademiya during daytime, and lambad’s tavern during nighttime)
As a Persian I love the Persian dance appreciation I really thought it's going to be lost to time or something
bro is majestic
Nilou always lookin' so fine when she dances
This archon quest was such a vibe fr
This why I agree that nilou is a five star since she broken a rule that could’ve led into some big consequences❤
In my opinion
Yoimiya status
i love this scene because it reminds me of peaceful protests that were done using art. nilou refuses to be silent and uses her dance as a way to not only help with the plan but to also show the akademia that they cannot silence her or anyone else. i especially loved this because it really reminds me of current real life events going on
This cutscene is so beautiful. I love her so much.
She danced, so that Nahida could run!!
The perfect description!
No, it wasn't Nahida who ran, it was the Nahida at home who ran
@@Shuwa217"Nahida at home" 🤣👍
@@greenyminister3936 It's figurative and literal if you went through the entire story
The amount of time I have watched this is a lot and the most of every other cutscenes maybe it's because of how she dance or the music but I always come back to this one and her other of the Dance of Subzerus
The music is so dramatic... It fits the setting perfectly.
I love thisss 🥰 the fake preparations is so realistic!
And some people dare to say she is boring character who just danced ;c They don't understand anything!
At 1:16-1:38
[spoiler alert]
Ive just managed to fit the phrase “The world… forget me” and “let the world completely forget me” in this part as a some sort of lyrics.
1:16-1:27)The, world, … for, get, me
1:27-1:38)Let, the, world, com, plete, ly, for, get, … me
This can also be used in the music from the sanctuary of surasthana.
Hope it is something.
literally 1:16 all the way to 1:38 i hear "let, the, world, complete, ly, forget me"
you guys are good
OMG I just got chills when I sang along with those 🥶🥶
This is one of the best cutscenes in the game for me always gonna remember how great the archon quest for sumeru was
Been playing Genshin for a bit now and their cut scenes are always beautiful and magical. This one is definitely in my top 5!
Arts can be used as research materials , they are a pretty valuable assets to nations nonetheless
nilou was so brave for this
hydro is the element of visual effects
*The most great and beautiful Performance in Sumeru*
This is literally the best cinematic cutscene in the entire Archon Quest, ngl.
ngl did not realize the akademiya students usually had pins on their hats thought it was just for the event, the more you know ig
This was my favorite quest, the writing was just top tier
My favorite part about this cutscene was how they gave me control of Nilou just prior only to walk up a flight of stairs and not use her in actual gameplay.
The music if you strip the sumeru arabic theme is identical to Love's sorrow. Listen to it
Which Arabic theme ?
I love how relieved she was when they ran past her
0:52-0:54 HER TWIRLING AND SMILE GETS ME EVERYTIME. come here for countless times because the soundtrack this time was amazing.
this dance is just too clean
Is there a OST for this?? I honestly love the music in this cutscene 😭😭
YES SAME no one here is talking about the music here 😭
It's called Inebriation of Raghs-e-Nilou
It's in The Shimmering Voyage Vol. 3
when i told u my heart was pumping when the guards got the message.... the entire story got me so hyped when i first saw it, so excited for fontaine
She was sooo good OH MY GOD
Sis just did the most serious clickbait in the history of Sumeru
Bro the nilou cutscenes really makes me wish she was a catalyst user. Like it's perfect ,she is a dancer and catalyst kinda fits her vibes too. But that apart, nilou dance is really amazing i couldn't control laughing when the guards said let watch a bit longer.
Edit : Kinda salty i couldn't get to pulverize the sages (Azar specifically). But was kinda expected ig. Not just for nahida... I'm kinda mad at the way he talked to nilou at the sabzeruz festival too.
The way she dance with her sword is amazing don't worry! I wasn't planning to get her, but I wanted constellations for Beidou. And now I'm obsessed playing with her 😂
Hint: allow Nilou to finish her movements after you tap the elemental skill button, she performs a mini dance with accompanying drumbeat
My Nilou is currently lv88 friendship 9 with 8 8 8 talent holding a lv90 flute, can't help but wonder if there might be any hidden meanings with my weapon choice...
I get wanting to punch his smug face, but I do have to admit I think completely outsmarting him is still more satisfying way to beat someone like him, especially the scene when he starts to realize things are spiraling out of control and he looks and sounds completely dumbfounded trying to process how exactly.
This scene reminds me of that part where Timon dressed in drag and did the hula in The Lion King to lure the hyenas away.
"Dress in Drag and do the Hoola?"
Cultured reference buddy 🤝
✋💀
That is a *BEAUTIFUL* reference, my dude!
She is so majestic
Me: "The guards aren't gonna be distracted, unfortunately"
*Watches as the guard says about watching longer*
Me: "I stand corrected... doubt the higher ups would be too impressed, these things never go without a hitch"
Bye not Nilou carrying the whole plan
1:46 WAS THAT SETARIA IN THE BACKGROUND?? 😳
Haha u can see when she was ending the dance she was doing it fast because she tought the guards were coling for her😅
She actually wrapped up the dance before they started pouring out of the ackademiya, meaning she knew they weren’t coming for her, since Alhaitham also would have mentioned that she would be safe in the plan
@@HypoZilla ohhh thanks for explaining
You can actually see how stressed she was in that moment, throughout whole dance you can see she was pretty much smiling and happy but at the end when guards started running, you can see that she was stressed so much
the dancing queen..so glad she helped out she was brave for this. live laugh nilou xoxo
I was screaming the whole time "SLAYYYY"
1:46 Setaria clapped
A dance that'll make you fall in love
Amazing ❤️❤️❤️ those who made this game - I can't even express how grateful I am, I'm so emotional from every cutscene❤️ so beautiful story and characters, I want to rewatch million times some scenes
Thank u👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
will they release an official ost for this? im so in lovee with the bgm 🥹
"Inebriation of Raghs-e-Nilou" is the song's name, released July 2023 in Shimmering Voyage Vol. 3
@@May-xt6iz tysm 😭
1:46 I thought Settaria was locked up? Who let her out?
Yeah, I'm also wondering why...
Maybe she got out of confinment by order of Azar
Lol

Nilou : "What do you want me to do? Dress in drag and do the hula"
Nilou: "Luau!"
1:15 music name? or theme?
I know some countries where this needs to happen.
A part of this was obviously a reference to the current situation in iran, Nilou is also persian, i'm pretty sure you were thinking of Iran or Afghanistan

Grand Master: Groans of increasing discomfort
Whoops wrong game
I was imagining she's dancing from RAWFLER 😂
1:24 triple twirl ended the academias career
1:13 is my fav part
I always get chills when the guards run past her and she finally exhales, like she was nervous it wouldn't work and was ok with being detained for the cause
the music is just...
my friends hated this scene because how useless nilou is, and just a fanservice, i was like "yeah yeah" to them, but secretly coming back because i love this scene :'DD
Not a nilou simp but she's not useless. The plan wouldn't work without her. There is already a prepared knowledge capsule prohibiting dancing in public but it was replaced by a knowledge capsule about lesser lord kusanali scaping. In order to switch the knowledge capsule, they need to have a performer.
I know it's your friend's opinion and not your fault, but as the previous person said they need a distraction. If the "false Kusanali alarm" suddenly appeared within Akasha, The Great Sage would notice the big scale movement of guards near him. So that's why they need a camouflage which is big enough to make a commotion, but not too dangerous/chaos that could make The Great Sage check it by himself.
As a addition to what those above said as well. I personally think this was something big for her. Her performances were always looked down upon by the sages and the academiya students were all led to think the same. Her performing like this shows that she is really brave cuz there could’ve been any chance of the plan failing.
Sounds like you’re friends with some Akademiya Sages
Your friend probably didn't understand how the conflict between arts and the sages is nasty in Sumeru. The sages took every opportunity to shut the artists down. So seing Nilou slapping them in the face by going to dance right before the Akademiya was priceless! It's fanservice if your friend want to call it like this but it has nothing to do with simping... It is sweet sweet revenge and justice is served !
1:12 no no no let’s let her cook a bit longer
such a girlboss
Akasha terminal moment is so powerful
the music is probably a variety of "benevolence bequeathed" right? I wonder if they'll ever make a separate ost for this scene, I love this version😭
this version already exists, it's called "inebriation of raghs-e-nilou"
@@mostmine6765 omg thank you so much!! You're a great help😭💗
1:45 Wait, wasn't Setaria imprisoned during this time?
She might have been freed because only the Traveler was in the confinement room
i want the theme its so relaxing
Mr.ceo's moves had gotten better since Ayaka's dance!!!! Jkjk 😂
2 times I lost her at 50/50😢😢 I hope on her next banner I’ll get her. I have Nadia c2. With Nilou I’m gonna have a nuke team.
