That little scene with baizhu and qiqi tear me up, while everyone enjoy time with friends and family, medical staff is still out there working during new year ( which probably the most important holiday)
This is so amazing! It's just so heartwarming to see every Liyue character celebrate and come together to enjoy the fireworks! Plus not to mention, the event games are so fun as well!
2:58 broke me, that small tribute to Azhdaha was so beautifully done. Seeing Zhongli finally being peaceful and content with the rest of Liyue celebrating all around him was also wonderful. This year's Lantern Rite was beyond amazing, thank you Mihoyo.
Also the scene where cloud retainer stood up in front of moon carver and mountain shaper symbolizing the end of direct adepti rule over liyue harbour is really cool
@@magnus_artifex omg yes, there is a video of Da Wei doing the motion capture of Ayakas dance: th-cam.com/video/RmI8JERoF34/w-d-xo.html It's likely a joke but its amazing
Honestly I don't even play Genshin, but I will watch all these new trailers just to listen to the AMAZING Music by Yu-Peng Chen and HOYO-MiX. They're seriously so beautiful.
@@rootiyk5032 no. They work on the same post at Fatui Bank, but never see each other cuz they work in different shifts. So, they begin to write letters to each other to talk. Best ship IMO.
This cutscene was so gorgeous and so emotive. Btw Beidou and Ningguang's interaction had me SCREAMING, historians will say they were very good friends👀
This cutscene was so incredibly wholesome. Especially loved the Xinyan Yun Jin (friend)shipping going on there. For all the memes about Xinyan that was absolutely precious.
1:47 I’m so glad that they put this specific music in the cutscene. It’s so beautiful. It was the music that welcomed me in the harbor when I first got there. Happy Lantern Rite!
It's really interesting to see that they showed playable characters AND npcs. I found it pretty heartwarming that they still try to implement them and give them some sort of story i.e. Vlad and Nadia AND THEY EVEN INCLUDED AZHDAHA I'M SOBBING
1:04 the Snezhnaya pen-pals reunited this year too for the Lantern Rite, this small things is what you don't see in games anymore, the utmost care and love this developers have for their game is simply amazing
@@doomslayer8025 monster hunter world, nioh 1 and 2. All these games have little details that symbolize greater meanings ex: William's arrival in the beginning of nioh 1 being showed at the end of nioh 2 cuz nioh 2's a prequel, with mhw, Nergigante's been the flagship monster and the og trouble maker for a long while but in the end of the dlc iceborne, he was symbolized to be the balancer of nature and whether we love or hate him, nobody could deny that he is important. Not just that, he canonically had a lot of beef going around with the main character and the story also symbolized that by the end of iceborne's story, they both had a certain level of respect for each other as they both were about to Duke it out one last time and god of War 2018 when Athena visited Kratos when he was trying to save his son and she told him that no matter how much he tries, he can never run from the past and he'll always be a monster. She was implying all the horrendous atrocities he's committed and all the Gods he killed due to his selfish nature and even if he fakes his death, runs to a new country and starts a new life, he will always be what he has been deep down
Seeing that even that Fatui couple were enjoying themselves at 1:04 was so heartwarming! i love these cutscenes. The Liyue cast is so lovable, even my boy Xiao was smiling ♥
Someday in the future when we look back, we'll proudly say: "hey, that's my game, the game that I adored." Hope us Genshin players, our passion of the game will never be faded.
Oh don't worry, with the amount they are making off this game, they're gonna stretch out the story so it'll last another 5-6 years, it ain't gonna end anytime soon
I cried because of how wholesome this was. Traveller smiling wholesomely, we've been through a lot, he/she finally smiled like this. Zhongli and Xiao wholesome smile Guoba's "rororo" and swinging feet so cute The ships that Mihoyo doesn't even conceal at this point, YOU LOVE TO SEE IT! Happy Lantern Rite! Everyone!
@@exhalerwolf1272 there was the Fatui duo from Northland Bank and the guy from "Good Sign" comission and his crush. But those pairings were never concealed in the first place (it's information you have access to), so I don't think they are the ones the OP was refereing to.
There were two parts that really got me: first were the Fatui guards meeting up and having such a wholesome moment, sort of reminding us that even the "bad guys" can have sweet moments happening during festivals and holidays, etc. Second was the smaller firework celebration in Qince village - the big cities always have extravagant displays during holidays and it's always sweet to see smaller more intimate celebrations happening in less populated areas which happens in RL too. idk. it was a nice touch instead of just the usual focus on big cutscene, spam main characters. Well done, Mihoyo, always nailing it with these cutscenes and now making Lantern Rite something to look forward to each year!
Yeah, I despise the Fatui but I really liked the relationship between the Northland Bank guards and wanted to see more of it, so it was great seeing them meet up
I saw the fatui's guard too, I really was happy for them. I really want a quest or something like that where the two one them go on a date or something like that. Happy Lantern Rite everyone !
When the tune started playing at 1:00 i almost teared up. Lantern rite 1.3 was my first genshin patch and i’m can’t believe it’s been a year since then
These are always the best cutscenes. Nothing in this game will ever beat seeing these characters hanging around and interacting with each other; it feels so lively it's heartwarming
@Rogikel The main story line doesn't really revolve around Lumine. This might be a spoiler for you so read at your own risk. Lumine was revealed to be Dainsleif's past partner and is now holding a high position in the Abyss Order. Thus, it does not make sense to use Lumine in the cutscenes. The main story is that Aether explores the world, etc. to find some answers regarding Lumine, the Abyss, Order, Khaenri'ah, etc. Aether is supposed to be the one looking for Lumine, he's the one going through all seven nations and meeting all the characters. Lumine's story is still very much a mystery so we might not be able to see her in cutscenes for a while.
@Rogikel Also, don't be so offended that they use Aether and not Lumine. Everything has a reason. Also, it's just a video game featuring a story. Don't be so offended just because the story revolves around a specific character (idk if gender is the issue here, but if it is, don't be too much of an overly-sensitive snowflake ig)
@@ishuika This. It would be dumb to make two versions of every cutscene to post on TH-cam. It would also be dumb to alternate between Aether and Lumine, because it would confuse the hell out of newcomers. They had to pick a sibling for promotional purposes and they picked Aether. They are both canon. You don't need to cope for having picked the uglier sibling.
the father and daughter relationship between Zhongli and Hu Tao is absolutely amazing and very beautiful as well, this entire cutscene is. it made me tear up
The way she says "Did ya see that? Way over there, a firework that looks just like a pig" and then Zhongli replies with "Oh, so it does" definitely reminds me of how kids bring their parents random thing like rocks and the parents have to act like it's the coolest thing ever
@@yuzumeow don't force your head canon onto other people, especially when it's a ship with a teenager x grown adult pairing, it can make people really uncomfortable
@@yuzumeow Zhongli calls her a child (which is not something he does with any other adult character) and she hangs out with all the other teenagers of Liyue (Xiangling, Chongyun, Xingqiu, etc) she definitely could be 18-19 which would be legal, but still a teenager. Zhongli looks like he's in his late twenties or thirties but has an even older mentality (since he's literally thousands of years old). As I said before that's a huge age gap between someone that's barely a legal adult and a fully developed grown man, a lot of people are uncomfortable with that.
Truly truly beautiful. Anyone who has discovered all the parts of Liyue would recognize all the easter eggs they added in. To Smiley Yanxiao and Jiangxue’s friendship and Xiao looking down over all of them, the tribute to Azdaha, to the fatui couple meeting at last! I especially enjoyed seeing every liyue character there is in this, even (finally, haha) Xinyan! The music, the storyline, the games, all have become so much fun! and they weren’t so difficult it made it frustrating! And the animation improving so much-it was fantastic! seeing everyone be so excited about the lantern rite made it especially heartwarming. I loved that even the mililith was running around in excitement! Great job Mihoyo! This is probably my most favorite even you have ever done! I can’t wait to see the next update!
I can't believe this was 4 mins long... The beautiful cutscene went by in a flash... If only there was an option in the game to replay these cutscenes, cuz in the game they hit totally different than on TH-cam 😭
@@sunnyblossoms4844 do you know for sure tho? they might add cutscenes they need for one patch and then remove on the next patch. but even if they keep those, since they are probably just video files, they wouldn't really occupy too much of storage space
@@shanyrayquaza3946 other than event cutscenes none are deleted patch by patch, so we could atleast get an archive of story cutscenes; for events, they could be time limited like the event. As long as the cutscene exists in the files, it won’t take up any extra storage to replay
I couldn’t get to the first Lantern Rite in time, so I was dangerously close to crying during this. My cheeks hurt from smiling so much. Seeing Xiao smile for more than a frame + the hint of softness in his face?? Incredible. I love him so much and he deserves so much better than what he got saddled with
I love the fact that Qiqi was able to remember Lantern Rite. Considering how she became immortal due/thanks to the Adepti, her family is long gone while she still lives. But they were most probably able to celebrate Lantern Rite with her while they were still alive. I do hope that Lantern Rite brought happy memories of fireworks, food and family (the three essentials of the Chinese New Year and Lantern Rite!) to our beloved 50-50 ruiner Qiqi ♥ Happy Lantern Rite everyone! And thank you Mihoyo for this beautiful cutscene!
In our birthday voice line, Qiqi says if she reads something every day, she'll remember it at some point. (how she remembers our birthday) For Qiqi to remember Lantern Rite was genuinely adorable as hell it makes me cry every time, she's been alive for 100 years so it seems like she remembers it now that she's seen it every year
@@horizon146 I think I remember something mentioned in her trailer, but very vaguely. I'm not sure, honestly, I had the impression she was from the Khaenri'ah cataclysm period
In my opinion, this is a way better, then 2023 cast scene. There u really FEEL, new latern rite is good too, but not just like this one. I'm really crying in this cast scene, in new i'm just like "Ok, not bad". P.S: Sorry for my Engrish, not good in that language
I understand, but I think that’s intentional. This lantern was very festive and about celebrating whilst the 2023 one was more about history, the adepti, moving on from past losses and starting the chapter of a new, modern liyue. To me, both had their very emotional moments ;-;
Yes, Lantern Rite 2022 was the best, something that would not be easily topped based on the cutscene alone, let alone if you take into account the rest: the amazing new story chapter it was paired with. I do think the event story itself was much more fleshed out and interesting though.
After struggling with ptsd from my military days for the past 5 years, this cutscene is the first time in these past 5 years that I was able to hear fireworks without basically losing my mind. Thank you Mihoyo, this cutscene might have just made my life a little bit easier...
@@denzelgonzales3854 the way Vlad bowed down to Nadia is so person-like as well; It confirmed my thought being mocap animation for these newer cutscenes
This cutscene made me cry because my whole family couldn't get together for lunar new years this year (due to the pandemic). But this cutscene made me take a breather from reality for a bit and gave me a sense of family and celebration. it's really heartwarming. thank you Mihoyo
This and yunjin's opera cutscene made me tear up. So glad to see shenhe feeling more at home at liyue and ganyu coming to watch together with her. Good job mihoyo. Happy CNY!!
idk for me they should do more lmao.. it took about a year for her to have her own scene but it's not satisfying since its an event story. probably just me
I'm still wishing for she need more power... How's everyone' Keqing going? I'm just a bit of Light Spender here. And I don't have any constellations upgrade for my Keqing yet.
The timing of this event is perfect as well, since it represents Chinese New Year celebration and now is just over 12am in Beijing which marks the start of a lunar new year, fireworks everywhere for Chinese all over the world , families gathered for reunion dinner . This event just sync so well with the real world event, it’s simply amazing and heart warming at the same time, thank you MHY !
I was thinking about that too. They timed it on each servers I think. Also cant wait for summer, maybe Yoimiya will come be there. I dont think there is easter but idk.. There wasn't anything on Halloween, was thinking of Hu tao skin.
During the Chinese New Year, I would like to express my sincere thanks to the Bai Zhu, Qi Qi and Millelith! Thank you for leaving your families to fight the pandemic!
This cutscene makes me feel warm and emotional. It's not only because of those main characters. Moreover, it showcases every ordinary people how they live their lives and enjoy the festival, some of them may be dodgy business people, even break laws to cut taxes, some busy on doing their jobs even on holiday and away from their families. You can find true friendship and love among them. It’s not only a Liyue(Chinese) thing but applies worldwide. In these few minutes, there's nothing about the COVID, politics, hate. Happy Lantern Rite!
This cutscene hits hard man. Seeing everyone so happy, even Azhdaha getting a scene, it all felt so alive. Im honored for this to be my first Lantern Rite festival
it feels like it's so beautiful that you cant even describe it, and its too much that it makes you (also me) cry. i had to come here to rewatch bcs when the cutscene's played in game, i started crying when i saw Madame Ping (somehow reminds me of my grandma), Yanfei, Ganyu and Shenhe. props to Mihoyo for creating such masterpiece.
The amount of detail is astonishing, they included npcs couples having livid action, the little segments with the mililith and even included Chongyuns popsicle because this would naturally make him excited. Wonderful
@@yuzumeow dude why are you bringing this up?? I’m appreciating the details here, not the characters. Why should I know that you have a grudge against a character??
This was absolutely amazing! They really went all out, to showcase small things/friendships conveyed without words, like Ganyu approaching ShenHe, the tribue to Azhdaha, Xiao on the rooftop, the reunion of the Adepti, YunJin and XinYan, Guoba, Xiangling, Chongyun and Xingqiu, and of COURSE HuTao and Zhongli...it really allowed us to see more of them as just...PEOPLE, and that made it so special! I was really happy to see the NPCs getting love too! Seeing Smiley YanXiao, Ying'er, the Fatui penpals, the villagers on Qince Village, and the various people of LiYue harbour just made it all feel so... "together"! I say it eveytime: No matter what people *think*, I don't think anyone loves Genshin and their players more than MiHoYo and it truly shows! Thank you for another great event, one of many more to come, and I hope everyone has a happy Lantern Rite! 新年快乐!
The fact that I joined Genshin Impact a couple months ago and THIS is my first ever Lantern Rite feels like an honor to me, thank you Mihoyo. Happy Lantern Rite everyone!
not even kidding the SECOND the lantern rite part of the music (1:00) started the tears started flowing 🥲 nothing makes me emotional like this event, man
I think that in terms of music, there will be a variety of emotions in each scene of the song 0:17 About waiting and excitement 1:00 About love and relationships 1:47 About elegance and dazzlingly 2:20 About serenity and nostalgia 2:36 About fun, warmth and going on together All of these are awesome, Happy Lantern Rite!
Im coming back here two years later. This was my first lantern rite in genshin and rewatching this scene made me cry. I genuinely love this game and i reminded me how happy i was when i first found this game. I hope genshin can further improve now that 5.0 will be here in a few days
some facts to amaze you even more: 1. this is in the same patch where there's also Yun Jin's amazing opera in 2. dropped on new year occasion 3. THE GAME IS FREE
TEARS. LITERAL TEARS I TELL YOU. This truly was so heartwarming as it included many of the characters we've met along the way and I love that they've included Azhdaha T_T
ME TOO. It’s such a good feeling, nostalgia. I remember fighting bosses with my friends. Now some of them aren’t friends with eachother. Having online friends carry me at AR 35. I’m so excited for everything mihoyo has to offer. Sumeru is actually so cool, and the anime coming out. I’m so excited for next years lantern rite.
@@CoffeeG3lly Ah that brings back memories since the beginning of playing genshin, thought I prefer to play HSR now, memories I made in genshin are irreplacable
Mihoyo really outdone, outsold everything with this Lantern Rite cutscene. They didn't forget a single Liyue character. Almost shed a tear when they present Azhdaha's tomb ToT Also it's really heartwarming to see everyone enjoy themselves.
It feels like they did the exact opposite of what they did in the first LR. What the first LR lacked in characters, they gave us tenfold this time around.
The improvements this Lantern Rite make it so much better than the last one. Props to Mihoyo for listening to the players' feedback and letting us spend the Lantern Rite with the playable characters. Even though some only appeared briefly, it feels much more special getting to see the Liyue cast. Plus, the event quests don't take too long now.
@@tcrzsppr3163I agree... Last year's was good but this year's felt lacking, like it could've been a hangout for Gaming, on top of that most of the cast of Liyue (or at least half) was missing...
Every part of this is amazing and wholesome. Yun Jin pulling Xinyan to see the fireworks, Beidou and Ningguang flirting, Ganyu officially meeting Shenhe, Hu Tao harassing Zhongli, Gouba dangling off the fence. Keqing’s and Xiao’s little smiles. Even the npc’s were heartwarming. Nadia and Vlad were so cute! And the scene right after Zhongli with Azhdaha and the other adepti was a nice callback as well.
Theres just something about Lantern Rite that makes me feel like a kid, I really love to just walk around the decorated part of Liyue and take in the beauty! 33 year old genshin old lady here xD This video was BEAUTIFUL!
1:56 I genuinely cannot stop replaying this scene. Thank you so much Mihoyo for the fun lantern rite this year. Really happy that we get to see all the Liyue Characters this time.
@MANEKOMI tell me you hate gay people without explicitly telling me you hate gay people 💀💀 can't believe you'd try to turn down beiguang of all ships when ningguang is literally A WALKING LESBIAN CHINESE STEREOTYPE anyways L stay mad 🫶
I literally cried for this scene…that’s so touchable both with the beautiful art and the music, the festival vibe in Genshin is just fascinating! Happy Lantern Rite everyone, and happy Chinese New Year as well!
Ok, so everyone is, for obvious and good reason, talking about al the interactions it shows with the playable characters. But, I'm not the only one who was super happy when it showed the two Fatui who guard the bank on different shifts and have been extanging letters and basically feel in love meeting up, right? I don't think this is the first time it's shown them met. But it really made me happy to see that again.
@@xieliannies If you do the Ningguang hangout you'd find out that the bank got caught doing something illegal by Ningguang, they couldn't meet earlier due to overtime.
Oh, yes! I was so happy seeing Vlad and Nadia. I believe last year, they were seen standing with each other and you could talk to them, but it seemed as if they were still completely unaware that the other was the one they were writing letters to. So...Ima gonna headcanon that they've found out now :) Either way, those two are very sweet and I love them
Some highlights 1:05 sneznhayan lovebirds taking time off work to spend time together 1:23 Lady Keqing 1:57 xinyan and yunjin cute friendship 2:00 Beigguang 2:20 Ganyu and Shenhe with Yanfei and 6 stars Madam Ping 2:33 Water Ice Fire 2:45 Adorable Hutao and Zhongli interaction 2:57 rip adzaha 3:00 adepti gang 3:23 XIAOOOOO 3:32 cute qiqi hop with genshin orochimaru 4:02 top 10 rare footage of the traveller speaking
I got money from my mom for new year... its a wise decision use it to buy a laptop... not the best performance but I can at least watch the cutscene.. that I used to hate (a mobile player)
I wish Mihoyo instead plays a video in the cutscene instead of turning the in game graphics to max during a cutscene. bc my cutscenes always flicker and lag a lot. I think the only cutscene I remember that was perfectly working well was Yoimiya's fireworks show
i will never shut up about this cutscene - the way it captures the mundanity of daily life amidst the excitement of a big national holiday (lantern rite) is so well done! the glimpses into the lives of the people living in the city, the nods to the npcs (where's timaeus for ying er), and characters excitedly watching the fireworks in an amazing illustration of friendship...this cutscene is so warm & comforting :((
See a lot of people not getting the hidden hint of Baizu and Qiqi: they are implying that doctors and Nurses does not take break during lantern rites, just as the reference to Chinese New Years, that doctors and nurses does not take breaks during this time
this is the most beautiful cutscene in this event... the music, the stage, the characters, the atmosphere... so cozy. I am very happy to be at this celebration and enjoying it, my eyes were in heaven, I am crying… this is the best announcement, thank you very much for such a wonderful event and fireworks ❤️, Happy Lantern Rite! 🎆
OH MY GOSH, THIS EVENT WAS AMAZING. THIS CUTSCENE IS ALSO THE ICING ON THE CAKE! Every one of our Liyue crew got to hang out with their friends and smile and have a generally fun time, EVEN IN THE NPCS. This was also by far one of the best moments in genshin impact, because it honestly made my heart fuzzy. EVEN THE TRAVELER SAID SOMETHING, in the English dub. But no doubt that at this moment, Genshin is just an awesome game!
There's something about this scenematic which made us feel sincere and wholesome, seeing all those characters interact with one another in every way gives a harmonious and nostalgic feel to the game. Thank you, Mihoyo! Happy Latern Rite!
I really love this cutscene, ESPECIALLY THE PART WHEN THE TWO FATUI MET AT 1:05 honestly those two fatui is my otp ship AND THE INTERACTION BETWEEN THE CHARACTERS IS SO CUTE
i can’t even describe how much is this cut scene beautiful. everyone enjoying fireworks, chongyun pointing at them and just so many details that make me smile. i’m currently crying

i know someone have to come back to celebrate new year with this masterpiece so...Happy New Year Everyone
it's so nostalgic isn't it? :')
Just watched the precedent and this one, can't wait to see how this year's will turn out !
I prefer this one than this years
Seeing that even that Fatui couple were enjoying themselves at 1:04 was so heartwarming! i love these cutscenes. The Liyue cast is so lovable, even my boy Xiao was smiling ♥

1:05 AND THEM TWO AHHHH

I almost cried at that scene + the music feels sooo nostalgic there
Who are them?
Yes yes!! They are so cute!!!

As someone who missed first Lantern Rite, this was such a wonderful experience. Thanks a bunch Mihoyo for making this event so awesome.

Someday in the future when we look back, we'll proudly say: "hey, that's my game, the game that I adored."
Hope us Genshin players, our passion of the game will never be faded.
That makes me kinda sad, because the game is online required it cannot last forever unlike some games that don’t require being online to play

When Zhongli said his “Oh? So it does.” I was screaming internally at how natural (ho-) it sounded. Keith did an amazing job at this one!
I broke down and cried

I cried because of how wholesome this was.

The ships that Mihoyo doesn't even conceal at this point, YOU LOVE TO SEE IT!
Happy Lantern Rite! Everyone!
Mihoyo would be in jail, if they don't conceal it. Tho they did fan service with this informally.
SO GLAD IM NOT THE ONLY ONE 😭😭
I cried aswell 💕wish once Aether and Lumine could watch this together
It's always open to interpretation. I didn't see any shipping going on, but ofc we should all enjoy it the way we want.
@@exhalerwolf1272 there was the Fatui duo from Northland Bank and the guy from "Good Sign" comission and his crush. But those pairings were never concealed in the first place (it's information you have access to), so I don't think they are the ones the OP was refereing to.
This was the most beautiful cutscene that Genshin has offered us I literally teared up at Azdaha Grave 😿

There were two parts that really got me: first were the Fatui guards meeting up and having such a wholesome moment, sort of reminding us that even the "bad guys" can have sweet moments happening during festivals and holidays, etc. Second was the smaller firework celebration in Qince village - the big cities always have extravagant displays during holidays and it's always sweet to see smaller more intimate celebrations happening in less populated areas which happens in RL too. idk. it was a nice touch instead of just the usual focus on big cutscene, spam main characters. Well done, Mihoyo, always nailing it with these cutscenes and now making Lantern Rite something to look forward to each year!

@@yuzumeow it's literally a Liyue event, lol.
Yeah, I despise the Fatui but I really liked the relationship between the Northland Bank guards and wanted to see more of it, so it was great seeing them meet up

These are always the best cutscenes. Nothing in this game will ever beat seeing these characters hanging around and interacting with each other; it feels so lively it's heartwarming
@Rogikel ?????
@Rogikel The main story line doesn't really revolve around Lumine. This might be a spoiler for you so read at your own risk.
Lumine was revealed to be Dainsleif's past partner and is now holding a high position in the Abyss Order. Thus, it does not make sense to use Lumine in the cutscenes. The main story is that Aether explores the world, etc. to find some answers regarding Lumine, the Abyss, Order, Khaenri'ah, etc. Aether is supposed to be the one looking for Lumine, he's the one going through all seven nations and meeting all the characters. Lumine's story is still very much a mystery so we might not be able to see her in cutscenes for a while.
@Rogikel Also, don't be so offended that they use Aether and not Lumine. Everything has a reason. Also, it's just a video game featuring a story. Don't be so offended just because the story revolves around a specific character (idk if gender is the issue here, but if it is, don't be too much of an overly-sensitive snowflake ig)
@@kimu2112 there is no canon twin Mihoyo can only use one twin so they stuck with Aether for consistency
@@ishuika This. It would be dumb to make two versions of every cutscene to post on TH-cam. It would also be dumb to alternate between Aether and Lumine, because it would confuse the hell out of newcomers. They had to pick a sibling for promotional purposes and they picked Aether. They are both canon. You don't need to cope for having picked the uglier sibling.
This is what we wanted last year, every character in the scene

exactly
@@younge2273 ok

@hecker when delete your account?
the father and daughter relationship between Zhongli and Hu Tao is absolutely amazing and very beautiful as well, this entire cutscene is. it made me tear up
Couple relationship they are dating during lantern rite 💕💕💕🥰
The way she says "Did ya see that? Way over there, a firework that looks just like a pig" and then Zhongli replies with "Oh, so it does" definitely reminds me of how kids bring their parents random thing like rocks and the parents have to act like it's the coolest thing ever
@@yuzumeow don't force your head canon onto other people, especially when it's a ship with a teenager x grown adult pairing, it can make people really uncomfortable
@@katybcat8286 Hutao is like 22
@@yuzumeow Zhongli calls her a child (which is not something he does with any other adult character) and she hangs out with all the other teenagers of Liyue (Xiangling, Chongyun, Xingqiu, etc) she definitely could be 18-19 which would be legal, but still a teenager. Zhongli looks like he's in his late twenties or thirties but has an even older mentality (since he's literally thousands of years old). As I said before that's a huge age gap between someone that's barely a legal adult and a fully developed grown man, a lot of people are uncomfortable with that.
Truly truly beautiful. Anyone who has discovered all the parts of Liyue would recognize all the easter eggs they added in. To Smiley Yanxiao and Jiangxue’s friendship and Xiao looking down over all of them, the tribute to Azdaha, to the fatui couple meeting at last! I especially enjoyed seeing every liyue character there is in this, even (finally, haha) Xinyan! The music, the storyline, the games, all have become so much fun! and they weren’t so difficult it made it frustrating! And the animation improving so much-it was fantastic! seeing everyone be so excited about the lantern rite made it especially heartwarming. I loved that even the mililith was running around in excitement! Great job Mihoyo! This is probably my most favorite even you have ever done! I can’t wait to see the next update!
Ya I noticed those two fatui finally meeting, it indicates that the fatui are also common man.
I can't believe this was 4 mins long... The beautiful cutscene went by in a flash... If only there was an option in the game to replay these cutscenes, cuz in the game they hit totally different than on TH-cam 😭
I agree but RIP storage if there was lol
@@apatheticsins8377 it wouldn’t hinder storage since they’re already ingame
Yes, I agree...I was so astonished because of the sudden cutscene and was like what am I seeing? Is this what u call real masterpiece ? :)
@@sunnyblossoms4844 do you know for sure tho? they might add cutscenes they need for one patch and then remove on the next patch. but even if they keep those, since they are probably just video files, they wouldn't really occupy too much of storage space
@@shanyrayquaza3946 other than event cutscenes none are deleted patch by patch, so we could atleast get an archive of story cutscenes; for events, they could be time limited like the event. As long as the cutscene exists in the files, it won’t take up any extra storage to replay
I couldn’t get to the first Lantern Rite in time, so I was dangerously close to crying during this. My cheeks hurt from smiling so much. Seeing Xiao smile for more than a frame + the hint of softness in his face?? Incredible. I love him so much and he deserves so much better than what he got saddled with

But they were most probably able to celebrate Lantern Rite with her while they were still alive. I do hope that Lantern Rite brought happy memories of fireworks, food and family (the three essentials of the Chinese New Year and Lantern Rite!) to our beloved 50-50 ruiner Qiqi ♥
Happy Lantern Rite everyone! And thank you Mihoyo for this beautiful cutscene!
In our birthday voice line, Qiqi says if she reads something every day, she'll remember it at some point.

In my opinion, this is a way better, then 2023 cast scene.
There u really FEEL, new latern rite is good too, but not just like this one.
I'm really crying in this cast scene, in new i'm just like "Ok, not bad".
P.S: Sorry for my Engrish, not good in that language
EXACTLY
I understand, but I think that’s intentional. This lantern was very festive and about celebrating whilst the 2023 one was more about history, the adepti, moving on from past losses and starting the chapter of a new, modern liyue. To me, both had their very emotional moments ;-;
Ahh so glad I’m not alone
Yes, Lantern Rite 2022 was the best, something that would not be easily topped based on the cutscene alone, let alone if you take into account the rest: the amazing new story chapter it was paired with.
I do think the event story itself was much more fleshed out and interesting though.
After struggling with ptsd from my military days for the past 5 years, this cutscene is the first time in these past 5 years that I was able to hear fireworks without basically losing my mind.
Thank you Mihoyo, this cutscene might have just made my life a little bit easier...
I thank you for your service, and I'm glad that this year's Lantern Rite was enjoyable for you!
This made my entire year, thank you so much for sharing this with us. Happy Lantern Rite!! ❤️❤️
Super glad to hear that man!
Hope you get better and better every day. New year new start, roaringly good year of the Tiger to you!

The timing of this event is perfect as well, since it represents Chinese New Year celebration and now is just over 12am in Beijing which marks the start of a lunar new year, fireworks everywhere for Chinese all over the world , families gathered for reunion dinner . This event just sync so well with the real world event, it’s simply amazing and heart warming at the same time, thank you MHY !
I was thinking about that too.
They timed it on each servers I think.
Also cant wait for summer, maybe Yoimiya will come be there.
I dont think there is easter but idk..
There wasn't anything on Halloween, was thinking of Hu tao skin.
During the Chinese New Year, I would like to express my sincere thanks to the Bai Zhu, Qi Qi and Millelith! Thank you for leaving your families to fight the pandemic!
It was a cute cutscene :)
I gotta admit, it's a surprise to see you here.
This cutscene makes me feel warm and emotional. It's not only because of those main characters. Moreover, it showcases every ordinary people how they live their lives and enjoy the festival, some of them may be dodgy business people, even break laws to cut taxes, some busy on doing their jobs even on holiday and away from their families. You can find true friendship and love among them. It’s not only a Liyue(Chinese) thing but applies worldwide. In these few minutes, there's nothing about the COVID, politics, hate. Happy Lantern Rite!

@@CoffeeG3lly Ah that brings back memories since the beginning of playing genshin, thought I prefer to play HSR now, memories I made in genshin are irreplacable
Mihoyo really outdone, outsold everything with this Lantern Rite cutscene. They didn't forget a single Liyue character. Almost shed a tear when they present Azhdaha's tomb ToT Also it's really heartwarming to see everyone enjoy themselves.
It feels like they did the exact opposite of what they did in the first LR. What the first LR lacked in characters, they gave us tenfold this time around.
0:00 - 0:30 I don't really know why but I found it cute how the millelith jogged around to inform the others when to release the fireworks
The improvements this Lantern Rite make it so much better than the last one. Props to Mihoyo for listening to the players' feedback and letting us spend the Lantern Rite with the playable characters. Even though some only appeared briefly, it feels much more special getting to see the Liyue cast. Plus, the event quests don't take too long now.
And the quest this time is quite fun too

Yun Jin pulling Xinyan to see the fireworks, Beidou and Ningguang flirting, Ganyu officially meeting Shenhe, Hu Tao harassing Zhongli, Gouba dangling off the fence. Keqing’s and Xiao’s little smiles.

Man can we get more long cutscenes like this cause it makes it more alive and great!
I got money from my mom for new year... its a wise decision use it to buy a laptop... not the best performance but I can at least watch the cutscene.. that I used to hate (a mobile player)

I wish Mihoyo instead plays a video in the cutscene instead of turning the in game graphics to max during a cutscene. bc my cutscenes always flicker and lag a lot.
I think the only cutscene I remember that was perfectly working well was Yoimiya's fireworks show
i will never shut up about this cutscene - the way it captures the mundanity of daily life amidst the excitement of a big national holiday (lantern rite) is so well done! the glimpses into the lives of the people living in the city, the nods to the npcs (where's timaeus for ying er), and characters excitedly watching the fireworks in an amazing illustration of friendship...this cutscene is so warm & comforting :((
Hu Tao tapping Zhongli's shoulder playfully is such a nice interaction
And Yun Jin pulling Xinyan to watch the fireworks show bcs they're stage besties
Imagine 10 years from now how nostalgic this will be... It was an honor being part of this cultural experience
Its going to be hard including every liyue character after some years.
I Hope we can have a lantern rite every year tho.
Just imagine when we complete our journey and the traveller must say goodbye to every friend he/she did.
It’s so heartwarming seeing Liyue characters come together to enjoy the fireworks, the cutscenes and the background music is amazing 11/10 for me

I love it, it’s such a soul soother
The fact that qiqi slowly remembered ‘lantern rite’ makes me cry every time
See a lot of people not getting the hidden hint of Baizu and Qiqi: they are implying that doctors and Nurses does not take break during lantern rites, just as the reference to Chinese New Years, that doctors and nurses does not take breaks during this time
Probably also tribute to all health workers around the world for their hard works during this pandemic.
@@yqisq6966 yes that too
Makes the scene all the more precious
this is the most beautiful cutscene in this event... the music, the stage, the characters, the atmosphere... so cozy. I am very happy to be at this celebration and enjoying it, my eyes were in heaven, I am crying… this is the best announcement, thank you very much for such a wonderful event and fireworks ❤️, Happy Lantern Rite! 🎆
OH MY GOSH, THIS EVENT WAS AMAZING. THIS CUTSCENE IS ALSO THE ICING ON THE CAKE!
Every one of our Liyue crew got to hang out with their friends and smile and have a generally fun time, EVEN IN THE NPCS.
This was also by far one of the best moments in genshin impact, because it honestly made my heart fuzzy.
EVEN THE TRAVELER SAID SOMETHING, in the English dub. But no doubt that at this moment, Genshin is just an awesome game!
There's something about this scenematic which made us feel sincere and wholesome, seeing all those characters interact with one another in every way gives a harmonious and nostalgic feel to the game. Thank you, Mihoyo! Happy Latern Rite!
I really love this cutscene, ESPECIALLY THE PART WHEN THE TWO FATUI MET AT 1:05
honestly those two fatui is my otp ship
AND THE INTERACTION BETWEEN THE CHARACTERS IS SO CUTE
Fr, if the two fatui had a whole story quest about them, i wouldn't be dissapointed
I love their relationship so much please- 😭 and ying'er beside them dhskhdksbd hopefully timaeus can visit hehehehehe
I can't believe no one is talking about Ning and Beidou in the comments rn💀
I remembered they also met up during moonchase festival🥰 it is really wholesome
Fatui has better relationship than me--
it was so cute when baizhu had a chuckle while qiqi was hopping, i loved the attention to detail 😍 especially yun jin and xinyan's friendship
i can’t even describe how much is this cut scene beautiful. everyone enjoying fireworks, chongyun pointing at them and just so many details that make me smile. i’m currently crying
Same
This is the best lantern rite an nobody can change my mind. 👍
