Itto's Japanese VA, Takanori Nishikawa, is in fact a musician in real life and he has had a very successful career as a singer since the 90s, much more so than as a voice actor.
Fun Fact, Itto's JP VA, Takanori Nishikawa, is musician, singer, songwriter, record producer and radio personality. He performs under the stage name T.M.Revolution (T.M.R.), which stands for "Takanori Makes Revolution". He is also known for contributions of ending and opening themes to many notable anime and game series. For example, he's responsible for Soul Eater's 1st op - Resonance. Also, from what people pointed out, a part of the song seems very similar to the content of a farewell letter written by a girl from Gaza, in which she leaves her money to her relatives and friends. The description of Battle Pass namecard during that version, which is themed around the main event, was this: ""The world does not love its children. If not, why chase them into the next one?" "What do you know? Maybe that one rocks even harder."" Which also adds to that

Cute/fun fact about Paimon and Itto rivalry is that they're both Tauruses and apparently the reason why they butt heads so much is because they're so alike.
Many people already said that Itto’s Japanese VA is a singer, but I wanted to add that you may have heard him if you ever listened to the first opening of soul eater!
In terms of other event cutscenes that might be worth reacting to, there was a Mondstadt event about 2 years ago called Weinlesefest, where Venti performed a song, except it was written more as a poem, and Venti’s English VA was the only one who decided to come up with a melody for it, and they decided to actually use that take. Other than that, most events involving Itto are great, but one particular dialogue scene that comes to mind is a funny Itto & Paimon moment from “The Test of Courage”. Not sure if that would be wort reacting to though, as the moment itself is rather short
I’m so super glad you’ve reacted to this! :D I was having a constant smile as well the first time I saw this in-game. And the other reason I’m glad to see your reaction is that the first few people who uploaded their reactions to this scene were kind of frustrating to be honest… stating so matter of factly that “their singing is cringe” or “Paimon ruined it”, like, maybe they’re prejudiced to hate fairy-like companion characters in games, but I can’t even begin to understand how they could honestly believe this was bad…
I mean, my playthrough also has a bunch of Paimon love. Including in this scene. haha And I've been recording my playthrough since launch! (I haven't uploaded this part yet though...)
They share a birthday. A brain cell. And their bday is one children's day. Nice

TM REVOLUTION????? Holy shit
It is Max singing yes, he's incredibly talented

Don't wanna be that person, but they are both Gemini actually 😅
Love itto's singing in every language. Bro such a mood. And props to paimon she nailed it.

WHAT!?
@@Roamerplays LMAO
I was so surprised when they announced TM Revolution for his voice. I always loved the first Soul Eater OP.
The fact that you misses this by like only a few weeks
Itto is a talented singer in canon as was observed by Heizou in one of his voice lines and by his happy birthday message to us where he sung us for us
Itto brings out the best in paimon. They are truly best friends that share one brain cell
Paimon and Itto are one of my favorite little duos
Itto JP VA is one of my favorite japanese musician, I'm so happy to hear him sing as Itto

i got to meet Itto's va Max Mittleman at a convention last weekend he was so funny!!
Tbg this blows you apart even more when you have known Itto/max mittleman to rap..and you totally expected him to rap and then this pops off lol
I'm so happy you reacted to this. This immediately became one of my favourite Genshin moments in my 3 years of playing when I first saw it
Requirement for being Itto VA is to be able to sing. 🙌
You missed this event by just a little. It even has a rhythm game system of it's own and it's one of my favorite events ever!
So glad you got to see this :) I absolutely love Itto and Paimon's interactions in game. They are so lovely!! ❤
Honestly loved this so much, and I only wish it lasted longer and stayed as a permanent event

I think Roamer would really enjoy the recent poetry event
I would really like you to watch the cutscene of this year's lantern rite, the conclusion of gaming's story
Wow, an actual paimon fan? I'm in.
This gave me baka mitai vibes
Itto is so good
I love them so much
Not changing the schedule this week? Since you mentioned you might last week?
The performance was a definitely a bang but really can't with Thoma on this one🤧
I'm so happy that you love Paimon cause man I love her, but she really isn't appreciated by most of the community :(
Day 2 of asking roamer for Celeste
Wait, I’m first?
Lol too late xD
