dude, not even everyone did playing or knowing HI3 lmao
@@renfukuyama5385 be for real tho no offence but I was bored in HI. Just not my game.
i mean can't blame him if he didn know hi3 XD
„Raiden Mei“ is the name of one of the main characters, or at least a pretty important character, in HI3 if I remember correctly.
She's basically one of the most important character in honkaiverse. Along with kiana and bronya.
lol That part had crying. “Mei as in… RUAN MEI?!”
She's one of the 3 protagonist of Hi3 part 1
U mean kiana's gf?

We need this
Boothills Line
I’d like to thank Kets, for creating the star rail script, Kets again, for existing, and creating content. I’d also like to thank Kets, for sumthin else, i dunno, but i do need to thank Kets!!
Honestly, Himeko's voiceline during the final boss when you use the astral express attack gives me goosebumps everytime. It's just the way she puts her HEART AND SOUL into that voiceline. The voice actors actually smashed it during the entirety of Penacony, not to mention how intriguing the story was in itself. I'm so excited to see what the next story on the next planet will bring.
dan hengs va said she put her whole navigussy into it
@6:31 HOW DOES THIS GUY KEEP DOING IT??? First with Misha, and now the fact that the stranger that Acheron has been with this whole time is dead and she is guiding him all this time. AND we're blessed with a 40 minute video. This man somehow keeps one upping himself
"Stelle, RAIL HIM!!"👺🔥🔥
27:56 that transition is so clean, that even a mom couldn’t critique it.
Every time Kets gets hype during a story moment I feel like I am reliving the moment when I played it. His excitement and joy is just so contagious and I just can’t help but get just as excited. I just love watching Kets he’s so entertaining and funny, keep up the great work
Best star rail series on YT by far, your clips and commentary make it so much more animated and fun to listen to, and that's from someone who's already cleared the story before watching these (absolutely top, peak, fire af story) and just wanted to watch it all again.
The way the galaxy rangers all came down from the sky like shooting stars was so beautiful and is such an underrated moment.
The Fu Xuan 'Humph!' never gets old!
It's always very cute! I love it!
I always saw Acheron as the Grim Reaper but her voice lines give me the impression she is meant to be Charon from Mythos.
Literally tho "The Acheron is the River of Woe or the River of Misery; and in some tales, it is the principal river of the Underworld, displacing the Styx, so in those tales, the ferryman Charon takes the dead across the Acheron to transport them from the upper to the lower world."
do you not know what Acheron is?
A 45-minute video? Kets is spoiling us 🙏
Sunday’s last words “Disorderly Noise”😂
7:10 kets is elio confirmed🤯
24:28 MOTHER HIMEKO SHOWING THESE FLOPS HOW TO SLAY 💅
31:45 i just realized "dominicus" progressively tears as hes charging up🤯
"My people what is good"..my favourite sentence in your video's Kets❤❤❤
Remember what Firefly said when she was you're tour guide, you can take items fom the dream world out to the real world.. for a nominal fee, so I'm guessing that's how we get the hat
Kets, to answer your question, Acheron is the expy of Raiden Mei. Same character but in a different universe.
Raiden Shogun/Ei is also the expy of Raiden Mei.
Raiden Mei is from Honkai Impact 3rd.
@@anyaaa2801 Raiden (M)akoto *the sister of Ei* Raiden (Ei)
the first letter in Makoto. and Ei. Raiden Mei
@@spiderkarma2564 Seeing someone else notice this makes me happy.
I guess I should start my Inazuma journey afterall this time. @spiderkarma2564
And to add a little more to this, they are not expys actually. That's a wrongly used term, expy means basically exported character, the only expy in Star Rail is Welt since he is the only one that is actually the same character he was in Honkai Impact, he was literally exported from Hi3. Acheron and him say it themselves, you might find "the same person" in different worldS, but they are not, those persons are their own individuals and while sharing similarities in personality, some part of their stories and sometimes fates, they are not the same.
That final move of the "Embryo of philosophy " remind me of a certain man and the god touching finger
But cannot put a finger on who
Adam. Or, is there a joke here that I’m missing the punchline of? 😭
YOW THAT Transition at 27:54 was Cool NGL
Agreed
"Gimmie that Phoenix Down". Hell ya 😂😂😂
26:09 Someone needs to make a compilation of every time he does the Fu Xuan HMPH by the end of this whole seriss.
"It's monday sucka" at the same time as the achievement was GODLIKE timing
Kets! I’m officially a Lady Fu owner! I’m in the club now 😙.
Same! I would not have pulled for Lady Fu had it not been Kets showcasing her in almost every video and convincing me of her value. 😊
Same same...i even pulled her lightcone
did you win? @@shockblast5402
Hey so obviously I'm not at the end of the video yet so maybe you have caught on but there was a few things you seemed confused about so hopefully this will help!
About Raiden Mei:
So you are right in saying that Raiden B Mei and Raiden Shogun look similar. This is because they are both expys (a design copy/reference) to 'Raiden Mei', who is one of the core 3 in Honkai Impact. Raiden B Mei and Raiden Mei have lore links, as they experienced similar stories to one another in their worlds - the only difference being that Raiden B Mei kinda got the bad ending where everyone (from what we can tell) died. A lot of different worlds on this thing called the 'Imaginary tree' has version of characters that look the same with some examples in HSR being: Raiden, Bronya, Seele, Natasha, Luocha, Sushang, Janqing, Silver Wolf (Bronnie), Kafka etc etc - as these characters share designs of characters (or stigmas which are their 'relics') from Honkai Impact.
Plus, Raiden Shogun is also known as 'Ei' with her Sister being Makoto. Together being Raiden (M)Ei.
About the Story:
Everything we experienced had already happened before 2.0 but we lost against Sunday where he put us in Ena's Dream. When he put us in Ena's Dream, not everything was perfect which is why we talked to Acheron before arriving in Penacony (during the start of 2.0) - If we realised it was a dream then we would of woken up. 2.0-2.2 is us reliving everything again in a Dream (like a second loop) but the ending was "happy" to avoid us from realising it was a dream and waking up. All of the second loop happened during a small moment when we got knocked down by Sunday - so in the real dreamscape it was only a few seconds or minutes. Also whenever we saw red text, it was something that we recognised as an event that you remember has already happened - we just never caught on it was a dream.
Got to say, as corny as it sounded, I love the last line from the Trailblazer basically saying, "Life slumbers because we wake from dreams". Despite Sunday saying he had to mature, he is the most childish character in the game. He never let go of his childhood dream of wanting a paradise for everyone - even though it is realistically not possible. Once the TB says that final line, Sunday realised the flaw in his Dream not wanting to let go of it saying "The night is too short" - but finally giving up on it when Robin "catches" him.
I was with you until that Sunday part. To each their own interpretation.
@@CartoonyPirate Yeah that’s fair, the Sunday stuff is definitely up to interpretation especially since we don’t know what’s going on with him in the aftermath other than he disappeared or ran away.
I like the interpretation about Sunday. I don’t think he’s the most childish, that’s kind of an exaggeration. He was definitely childlike for wanting his dream, but his approach to obtain was the most logical and “mature.” With his method, the “perfect paradise” was definitely possible and would’ve worked.
@@supremacyeverything6988 Yeah when I meant the most childish I meant intentions wise and not as an overall character. Although I kinda disagree that his method would have worked - humans have opinions that will naturally conflict, which would disrupt a perfect paradise. So the only way to make it “perfect” would be to take freedom of choice away, which isn’t perfect and more like a prison than paradise.
Hoyo has kinda showed that this kind of plan wouldn’t work twice now. Once with Sunday and the other being Kevin in HI3rd. Both plans were extremely similar and failed. (Although Kevin knew it was one of the worst ways to save humanity, so he tried everything in his power to save them in a different way over a period of 50,000 years)
@@UniversalRose thing is, his method would’ve worked if we weren’t there to begin with. Everyone in the paradise would’ve been stuck there living their dream without knowing it. Humans also naturally choose the path of least resistance. A normal person would’ve never realized they were forever dreaming, since they were happy, and that’s all that mattered to them. It was the “perfect paradise” in that sense, since everyone wouldn’t be aware in first place that they even lacked freedom of choice. It was only because we were invited and showed up that the plan failed.
I love the callbacks to HI3 with Acheron; from her name right up to her catching Stelle's hand just like Mei did for Kiana in 'Lament of the Fallen'.
I think Kets would really appreciate knowing just enough HI3 lore to fully appreciate Acheron and Welt and their origins
About Oswaldo Schneider - he's from the IPC's marketing department. We hear about him in the Simulated Universe.
There's also, indeed, various versions of Raiden Mei in the Honkai series.
• Raiden Mei (Honkai Impact 3rd)
• Raiden Shogun (Genshin Impact)
• Raiden Mei/Acheron (Honkai Star Rail).
Other characters that exist in other games:
• Bronya (And Silver Wolf who's a different version of Bronya)
• Selle (And maybe Xuei who might be another Selle alternative. Look at Seele from Impact 3rd and you'll see why)
• Sushang (and her phoenix, who was a whole character in Impact 3rd)
• Himeko (RIP)
• Welt (He's not an alternative of the Impact 3rd Wekt though. He IS the Impact 3rd Welt and he has travelled from there to Honkai Star Rail
• Kafka (only an item though if i remember correctly)
• Yangqing (As an adult)
• Luocha (Impact 3rd antagonist)
And those are the ones I remember now. Genshin Impact might, maybe, slso have some but Genshin is a bit more seperated from Impact 3rd than HSR is.
I'm also not an Impact 3rd player so if there's anyone else I forgot or I said some mistake feel free to correct me.
Also, I do know Stelle and Caelus are related to Kiana and Kevin but considering Acheron's conversations with Welt and Tiernen there was already a Kiana who died and a Kevin who was killed by Acheron in this world. I think. So our trailblazers might not be a direct alternative version of Kiana and Kevin.
I also think Frebass (nameless who went inside of IX, Acheron's friend, the pioneer relic set lore talks about it) might be a Kaslana , but the parallels with MC are big too (Acheron's memories of who we remind her of, the Kaslana baseball bat, preservation Caelus looks a lot like Kevin and his greatsword). I have a feeling that the larger game arc is going to take us inside of Nihility, especially since we've probably gotta get every path eventually. I'm guessing that will be last but it's what I'm most excited for.
Also if you've done the Chadwick side quest from 2.0 you'll know why Boothill is so eager to hunt Oswaldo down...
@@0v_x0Yeah, Freebass might be alive though, and came back as this universe Kaslana. Surviving a black hole is a possibility in this world of fiction, and I won't pass up any opportunity to play as them
Edit: I just remembered that there was this guy in Herta's Space Station that is trying to find his girlfriend, who got stuck in a blackhole. She can be saved, but due to the Interstellar bullshit and time dilation, when he'll reach her, the guy will be old af, while she doesn't age much. Welt also used a black hole against Sirin in Hi3 manga to buy time, turning seconds into minutes. By that logic, we can save Freebass from IX, and she would think that she's gone for an hour or so.
@@saif-gv6gl I like what you're cooking
Also ruan mei is an expy of raiden mei as well but is technically a different character so both can exist but they are essentailly the same, kinda hard to explain but still counts.
@@gizunoglunmig0801 not really imo but maybe a bit of Dr Mei
Pier point is an IPC location and Oswaldo is a part of the marketing company, which is the reason why so many planets are under the IPC iirc, he's also a former nameless 😁
Boothill has damn good reason to be mad if you know his backstory at all and have done Chadwick's sidequest from 2.0
pier point is the headquarters of the ipc it has a planar sphere and everything, and according to the wiki Oswaldo Schnider is a former nameless who joined the ipc, he's the head of The Marketing Development Department which is the department that is responsible for spreading the company's influence across the star systems, and the xianzhou alliance consider him very dangerous to their operations, so kinda continuing the theme in the game where there's good and bad aspects to every path in the game
Pom Pom absolutely CARRYING this fight
"you beautiful people..." YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL KETS
The amount of love you put into your edit for this episode is phenomenal ❤❤❤
a 45 minute video from kets with tons of humor is great, especially since Penacony's story is so good! ✨
DISORDERLY NOISE 😭😭
36:11 Sometimes I wonder if kets is trying really hard not to flex his editing skills on us because he knows our puny minds wouldn't be able to endure the majesty of his skills😂😂😂
I personally think that Sunday said "if your paradise can save more people sever my path with your hands" becouse he was ascending to aeonhood and almost became a new aeon with a new path
Dont think so cause he said his goal is not becoming or reviving an aeon, he is simply drawing power of the order to sustain the dream
Eh, wasn't his dream to achieve an ideal world where everyone could live their lives to the fullest without needing to worry about survival?
As the above reply stated, he was using the power of the Order to sustain it (because the Harmony could not)
"If your paradise can save more people, sever my path with your hands"
To that end, he doesn't care so much about the means, because what truly mattered to him was achieving the ideal world (he doesn't mind the sacrifice to become the lone ruler in his dream; for another example, just look at how much he favors the dream, the escape from reality)
Hello Kets i rlly enjoy all of ur vids.
Btw keep growing hope ya reach 50k and u even deserve 100k+.
Have a nice day and keep going love ur channel
The whole Penacony story was really good. The music never disappoints, always really good. The pacing for the story was great. Amazing video 🔥🔥🔥
i love kets because on every main boss fight he slows it down to see the animations
45 mins of kets video to chill in the bathtub? Heck yes please
What I think they’ll do regarding the MC talking, I think at some point we’re gonna be playing a flashback of the time when they were still a part of the Stellaron Hunters, and through this flashback the MC will actually talk, and it will by hype as hell 🎉
WAIT!!, THE MC CANT DIE!!??? I was saved by gameplay pity and not my sheer luck and robin singing in the background!!!!??.....oh
one day we'll meet Elio and he's gonna reveal that his name was KETS all along.
I'm calling it
14:09 Acheron name is a version of Raiden Mei from honkai impact 3rd
Wooooooo im glad you enjoyed it! I think penacony is def the best world we have so far story wise and it makes me so excited for the future of the game 🎉
Also a side note: if you go the most south teleport in the grand theatre and walk down the hallway you will get a text from robin and it unlocks a mini (mostly unvoiced) quest. Once you get what she asks you to, the item will trigger a few extra voicelines from two characters. Once you get the item you gotta go back to the same south hallway and find her disguised on the side of the left entrance.
Again its a super mini quest but it does give you some more context as to what happened to sunday and robin after their fall 👍
Truly the epic battle for the ages! Yeah I absolutely loved the story, but the ending did leave me with a LOT of questions...
lmao Ruan Mei. 🤣I actually never thought of the "Mei" part of her name in that way. It's a very interesting (and funny) thought you had.
She's probably a Mei variant as well, but closer to the Dr Mei part
Got my first fu xuan, last night (i started around the beginning of huohuo's banner so i missed a lot), thankfully I already have gepard's light cone, so I'm good until I can pull again
Can't believe we need to wait for 3.0 for more this content
We’ll still have the “filler” episodes for story, at least. The Kets story content is easily my favorite.
HSR players were rejoicing, ascending, shouting, screaming, crying, singing, flying as soon as Robin entered with her champion anthem xD
I could not love HSR, or this channel, any harder right now. 😭🥰
this was truly, our honkai star rail 🥺
genuinely one of the best edited boss fights ive seen gahdamn
Sunday boss second phase advice 101: you can never time your burst with that team use them right away
Kets, Raiden Mei is the original character from GGZ and Honkai Impact 3rd. Hoyo usually makes variants of the characters from this 2 games in their other games. Raiden Ei (from Genshin) and Raiden Bosenmori Mei (Acheron) are variants of the "original" Raiden Mei but they are not conected, it's just a multiverse thing. That's also why Welt (who is from the Honkai Impact 3rd universe and got into the Honkai Star Rail universe while being the same guy, like, he's not a variant he's IS the og Welt) wanted to check if she was the og Mei or another variant in their conversation. They talked about similar events but different outcomes in their respective universes.
God your editing is so cool. That acheron and old man saying same dialogue. Chef's kiss
I swear this was the best story so far, I can't wait for the next one! ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
43:19
@Kets Firefly died twice now. The first time was when she got stabbed by the meme
The second time is when she had to die to awaken from ena's order
I expect we get to see the third death in v2.3, or maybe it might not happen. Who knows
My opinion 2.2 and the entire penacony quest was amazing and I look the most for Firefly I am most confused about Tiernan that black figure that died and acheron in the future and that lore I hope i get more explanation in the future. Thx for the time u took reading this
Making Acheron a bit of a psychopump as the Emanator of Nihility is so fricking cool! It just... fits so well!
So that was death 2 for firefly. The 3rd death is left somewhere in 2.3. Oh boy she's in danger of being the first 5 star to kick the bucket.
Firefly have not achieved what she is after yet so her script will continue. The stellaron hunters are not dying anytime soon.
The Sunday Stellaron Hunter theory is getting more and more solid evidence 😤
@@yes78yeah it’s way too early for any Stelleron Hunter to die. They have too much involvement with Stella and Stellerons, which are the main conflict around the plot at the moment.
The death of SAM is a really nice theory though, and opens up the possibility of her joining the Express. This, and the theory of Sunday joining the Hunters, especially because he has a warrant and bounty on his head rn.
@@saif-gv6glI hope firefly join us in the express ❤
"Raiden, as in Raiden Shogun?! Mei, as in Ruan Mei?!"
So he's still new to the Hoyoverse....
Sunday saying this ordery noise so many times is crazy
It's a pleasure to see you enjoying Penacony so much. I love it too!
And my favourite character here (and in the whole game) is Aventurine
This was easily the best arc so far
I'm going to miss the Firefly stab reaction
the story quest was like a chef kiss and the LORE at the last 10 min was crazy!!!!
(great video !!!!) ❤❤❤
35:57 why is no one talking about how good the editing was here?!
For real, definitely my favorite part. It was so hype! Kets’ editing just hits different. He puts so much love in his videos, but you can tell he went even harder on this one. He deserves so much more views.
Thanks for making jy day with your video my man
Kets….. that 1600 reserved trailblazer power…… hurts my soul 😅
i always enjoy long vids from u kets.
no other hsr content creator makes vids like you do... comedy edits + u try to understand everything thats happening and from a viewer's experience its so satisfying that u dont ignore lore and u enjoy/suffer gameplay at level 50 😂, even if it ticks new viewers xdd. i've been watching since belobog arc and always try to comment for the engagement 🤣 but i always rewatch ur vids whenever i wait for a new upload :) i love seeing ur channel grow, u deserve it! cant wait for the 30k special 🎉
Thank you Kets for this 45 min video!
45 min of video? Hell yeah, love Kets
Peak story and peak video, I love listening to your thoughts in the end!
Raiden Mei, the ORIGINAL Raiden Mei, is in Honkai Impact 3rd. The Hand grab you see in the cutscene is referencing when she grabbed Kiana's hand in a sequence(somewhere. there is a video for it)
I’ve been waiting for kets to hear this soundtrack 🙏🏼
Kets pops out with a new video just makes my day brighter tbh
Good shit dude. Loved the whole story myself and the heavy uae philosophies.
That said, i do agree they could trim the fat, make long dragged* out parts more cinematic to keep things interesting. And for the moments when they drag things out to show a long passage of time, just use cinematic moments to imply it properly instead of just long talking and exposition.
LETS FUCKING GOOOOO ITS FINALLY HEREEEEE!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Btw to explain (hopefully it’s not repeated as much 😭)
Raiden Mei is the original- Acheron, Raiden Ei- they’re both based on her! Shes one of the most important characters in hoyoverse games!
Anyways I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THIS STORY CAUSE ITS ONE OF THE BESTTTTTT❗️❗️❗️❗️
this quest gave me CHILLS!!! its the only quest that made me cry fr
All i gotta say your editing is amazing man!
such an amazing finale (R.I.P. Sparkle screentime though)
Ty Ket's. Your video luck got me Boothill in just 30 pulls.
Damn 45 minute kets video lets go can’t wait for you to try boothill
Kets you should try the new event legend of the Galactic Baseballer, it's so chaotic😂
anyway 45 minutes vid that's insane🔥
Boothill gets poetic
Me: Who are you, what have you done to Boothill?!
We rail this boss, IT WAS EPIC
But how you miss Himeko inner valkery line , that was god like moment
35:06 ...Kets loves tempting fate, huh? Been watching him for 3 months now and i should NOT be surprised. Yet he finds a way.
Coz his name is Kets.
Listening to the 2nd Phase Music where Robin comes in never failed to bring a single tear into my eyes. It's just so fucking good.
27:42 Reigen jumpscare
Naur why didn't they just leave it to Robin 💀💀 Gurley has her own fanclub around penacony
Dude your content is always entertaining, hope you'll get more subs soon
Acheron? More like, Acher-off... Get it? Cuz she died multiple times?? n-no?
Ok
Kets, unlike the other tanks aventurine is better in the middle than the sides, he needs to get hit for his follow up stacks and ultimate.
You usually put character that need energy on each of his sides.
You should also use as soon as possible aventurine’s ultimate, not only for the debuff for Acheron but it will also create/strengthen his shields.
39:50 Pier-46 is the Main Headquarters for the IPC. Or the home planet of the IPC. I think the planar set for Nihility ( Pan-Galactic Commercial Enterprise) also references this location. It's also possibly the main location of the Eminattor Diamond, the Leader of the 10 Stonehearts(or Jade, Topaz, and Adventurine's boss.
Sunday mind've heard some noice
Yes now this is The real final battle
Watching this reminds me of my first fight with Boss Adventurine with my non-built Acheron and her getting one-shotted before the fight really even started.
Love your edits man lmao
