Hope you all enjoy the video also working on how I think the main MC connects to SH before the games events! With that said who is your favourite? For me its Silver Wolf or Blade hard to decide
Can you give me your source for the info that Kafka was the first stellaron hunter recruited? Because her character story 4 implies the opposite as it's written as one of Elio's scripts that's instructing someone else to recruit Kafka. (I don't think it's Sam though since Elio says he's going to make that persons wish for the future an reality when they die, which kinda contradicts Sam's wish to be healed and have purpose )
@sepphero9639 I was saving this for another video but a general assumption I have was that Kafka was actually recruited by the main MC and its this whole big thing but as for all the current memebers shes first recruited going off what we know about her from her story and from Elio
@@sepphero9639it was Sam or I guess the MC themselves but no one else fits. Blade can ONLY be controlled with Kafka, SW was after Kafka. So that only leaves 2 others
What's weird to me is when Elio recruits Kafka he is talking to another person and he says something about Kafka killing this second person and then Elio if they fail to get her to cooperate. My theory was that this second person was SAM but Kafka killing SAM so easily seems weird, the only other option is that the TB was this second person helping Elio from the beginning.
I'm pretty sure the second person is just some random goon. I mean, it would make sense for Elio to be able to hire random jackasses with the promise of acomplishing their dreams. I don't know the power gap between Sam and Kafka, mainly because I don't know how Firefly can handle her Whisper, but I severely doubt that Kafka would have such an easy time. A sword and two uzis don't really compare to a suit that allows you to fly through space and enter highly hazardous areas without any health effects, not to mention crashing into the ground at higher than terminal velocity without harming herself. I guess whether or not Kafka would win is entirely dependent on her silly strings. And as for the TB, I'm pretty sure they were made and dropped on Kafka's lap well during Kafka's service as a Stellaron Hunter.
@TheGamerChronicles999 the Trailblazer dose had an black coat on there which all member wear an black coat or jacket,and had an animal mofit like most members not sure on Blade
We don't really have enough information to say definitively who was the recruiter for Kafka's last character story. But if it was Trailblazer, and then TB and Kafka recruited Samfly, that seems like the most thematically appropriate recruitment order for all three characters involved. TB is 'given' to Kafka by Elio during Kaf's recruitment, with Elio's message to her explaining her destiny with TB, then Firefly meets TB as one of the first people she sees after being trapped in cryo for untold centuries.
I swear to God, if Elio was finally shown and somehow saying something about Schrodinger Cat Box and how the future is both exist and not exist simultaneously or some parallel science theory... I'm gonna pet my black cat.
I think MC also part of Stelaron Hunter. Because during Kafka companion quest Blade reveal that MC use to be Kafka partner, and he said that no one stay the longest by Kafka side other than MC, Silver Wolf also said that MC, and Stelaron Hunter are actualy an old friends before MC joining the Astral Express.
@@TheGamerChronicles999Not to mention Kafka's 4th Character Story. Eilo instructed someone to approach her by following his "butterfly-effect script" with the chances of being killed, which resulted in a doom future. I did some research about Firefly and I believe that Trailblazer was also responsible of recruiting her into the Stellaron Hunters.
@@XavierLeyva make sense for Traiblazer along side Kafka recruiting Firefly or even found her somewhere in space. I think that also the reason why Firefly feel so attach or even have close bond with Traiblazer not only they save her, both Firefly, and the MC are Artificial/Genetic Modified Human so both of them can understand each other.
@@AbyssalDarking970 They’re both living weapons. I have the same thought too on everything you said. However, I believe that Kafka wasn't apart of Firefly's recruitment. I think Kafka was on a different mission when TB found Firefly inside her cryopod. There was even a fan-made manga of it.
@@0v_x0 The question being, "What ability does Sunday offer to the Stellaron Hunters?" I don't know if he still has that Harmony power after the events of 2.2. Perhaps being an actual diplomat that wouldn't cause an immediate arise?
Considering that when talking to the dream master he assumed it was Gopher Wood controlling the stellaron… but throughout that discussion he said “it is not you who controls the stellaron but…” and it ends there, implying Gopher Wood is getting controlled by the stellaron. The same way Cocolia did. And considering that it is the stellaron that caused his mother’s death… and when questioning Aventurine who actually parallels Sunday quite a bit, the whole upbringing getting taken away as Aventurine actually perfectly embodies the weak that Sunday talk about, he had his self value/future taken away and was forced to become a slave to the IPC who were the people that swore to protect the Avgins yet did nothing because Oswaldo Schneider did nothing so Jade essentially took him in… Jade is essentially the Gopher Wood for Aventurine, but she is clearly not right in the head, she is a manipulative maniac who believes she is on the “right” path and doing good for others there is a reason in her splash art her snake has an apple… it’s biblical symbolism of Satan.. making a deal with the Devil, and considering that Gopher Wood when looking at his portrait in the dream scape pass is a halovian with completely black wings and a crow in his shoulder… But Sunday swears to protect the weak that’s why when he asked the last personal question to Aventurine “do you truly wish to see the destruction of this world?” He was being genuine even though he hates the IPC… and seeing that Sunday now saw everyone on Penacony come together to awaken from Ena’s dream and knows that this isn’t what they want, and that behind it all is the stellaron, likely the same one that caused his mother to die and the Family just did a cover up to hide it… he will return to Penacony and take it, maybe this will be the story of the continuation quest of Penacony, I have came up with the timeline of events and since most HSR stories last for 3 patches it means the Xianzhou lasts from 2.4-2.6 meaning a continuation for Penacony happens in 2.7… and the second half of 2.7 is December 25th using the 6 week rotation since 2,7 releases December 4th… it would make sense the heavily religious character releases Christmas Days… Also nearly all the stellaron hunters have a crow motif except Elio and SW… Kafka sounds like Kavka in Czech which means Jackdaw, a corvid, not only that there is a book that features Kafka and some cat characters called “Kafka on the shore” which features the alter ego of the main character Kafka who is named “crow”, Blade has crows in his splash art, SAM’s battle theme is called Nevermore referencing Edgar Allen Poe’s poem “The Raven”, which is the inspiration behind the readable associated with Sunday called “The Death of a Crow” which is supposedly the invitation from Elio since you can find the readable before the end of the 2.2 quest in dreamflux reef but it features the events of the quest before it happens meaning the writer can see the future to a degree… I believe the stellaron hunters all have a “crow” of their past they seek to be rid of, and considering Gopher Wood has black wings and a crow sitting on his shoulder in the dream scape pass, he is Sunday’s crow who has brought him up to be the successor of the Great One/Ena As for the abilities he holds that he could offer… nothing is confirmed but considering he is a guy that nearly ascended into god hood from usurping the power of an Emanator of Harmony… he seems pretty powerful in faith and spirit such as shown by being the only to call upon Ena and perform the consecration… he doesn’t seem physically powerful, but spiritually powerful
Kafka was recruited by Elio and an unknown person, and Elio mentioned that Kafka could kill both of them if they failed to convince her. We know Kafka was there to recruit Silver Wolf, Blade, and Firefly, so unless there's still a Stellaron Hunter that's somehow managed to avoid being mentioned this entire time, I reckon the popular theory that the Trailblazer being a Stellaron Hunter in the past holds water. This is also supported by the absolute truckload of evidence about how the Trailblazer being a familiar person to various Stelleron Hunters. Also I think Firefly's pilot suit takes wayyy more inspiration from Evangelion. That pilot suit is almost a carbon copy of Rei's, especially the knees, thighs, and shoulders
Fun fact: In Myriad Celestia Trailer: Fable About the Star, Black Swan gives us the description of Terminus as "Infant in the mirror" which makes sense since Terminus can't manifest itself to the universe and can be considered the youngest and the oldest Aeon.
There's nothing the stellaron hunters do that risks themselves being unable to continue the script, so far only firefly is trying to do that but failing,
I doubt archeron would ever join the Stellaron hunters for the simple fact that killing and hurting people isnt her thing. Most of the situations shown have just been her doing what she has to and actively trying to keep bloodshed to a minimum
@@shadow-faye i mean they do kill people but not the innocent ones , Firefly said she only brings destruction to villains , acheron does the same , they all kill but their victims are all bad ones
@@98-carlmarkmarak22 they're still criminals though, also we don't know that they only kill bad people At very least they attacked planet screwllum and the space station even if no one died
Favorite Stellaron Hunter is a bit of a tie between Kafka/Firefly, love them both so much. It's also interesting that most of Elio's visions (according to Firefly) have revolved around Stellarons. Maybe putting a Stellaron in the Trailblazer was a way of expanding his foresight by having a moving Stellaron traverse the universe. I really want to know what our relationship with Elio was (hostile, friendly, indifferent?). I would laugh if it turns out Elio was a stray cat, that the Trailblazer just found, befriended and then crazy stuff happened (Elio got future sight, and the Trailblazer somehow became a vessel capable of housing a Stellaron) and all this is just Elio trying to save his friend/owner's life.
Favourite is silver wolf but I find all the stelleron hunters really interesting. I do like how the stelleron hunters are not morally good but they aren't the worse people in the universe. Gotta love the morally grey characters.
I think the SH is more like the anti-villain, the IPC is more similar to Fatui, while the Annihilation Gang is the mini boss from Nanook & his Emanators. The true villain would probably revealed near the end of the story
Depends if they start introducing more Emenators of destruction. Hopefully better than how Phantylia was introduced out of left field. As for the IPC, I've heard a theory that they're about to enter into a civil war between the Ten Stone hearts vs Oswaldo Schneider.
My theory there is that Polka is a 'Kafka-face' in the way Silver Wolf and Belobog-Bronya are both Bronya-faces. Polka does seem much older than Kafka, and Kafka talks about her if you inspect Polka's portrait during the prologue that indicate that she's a different person, at least.
Given Kafka's splashart at 22:58 it can be inferred that there are 2 other female Stellaron Hunters (behind Blade & Kafka) and 2 unknown hunters (at the bottom). I'm left to think that Firefly is the one below Blade (given that it roughly matches her design).
To be fair, it may be that there are only 5 “Active” Stellaron Hunters, and not that there are “exactly” 5 Stellaron Hunters. For example: following the theory that the MC is actually part of the group, then we are not technically an “Active” member (as we are part of the Astral Express, not the SH), so it could be that a few of their roster is simply not actively needed or is sitting out due to Elio’s script or any such reasons.
I believe that the Stellaron Hunters have 9 active members based on Kafka's gacha art(including Elio). 9th person would be the one where you can also see her/his heels. I find it mysterious that this person is facing towards them or even walking towards them. Also in Kafka's gacha art we can see the the reflections of their surrounding and it seems that there are no other people within the area that were walking or travelling meaning the are they were in is not crowded, this leads me to believe that this person (the one with hills on) is also part of the organization making them nine.
I kind of disagree on the floor at the reflection is clearly shown that there are multiple other people plus only the stellaron hunters are shown with there bodies the women in his can very well just be a bystander
@@isaiahhaley4816 The reflections don't seem to look like human bodies if you look closely. One of the reflections looks like tree branches while the other seems to be a structure of some kind. other than those reflections I dont see anything that seems to resemble a human on the reflections
@@luckytako633 it’s literally raining where they are plus, the fact shadows aren’t the greatest reflections of a human body and the fact that there are multiple lights where they are so it’s kind of valid. I don’t think there’s more than five stellaron hunters if there were we would’ve known about it through either voice lines or the rest of the hunters mentioning them
Ok hear me out on my theory here. What if the people with umbrellas in Kafka's splash art depict future and past Stellaron Hunters. At first when Kafka was first released we only knew of Blade and Silver Wolf and theorized that Elio was the black cat, later on we learned more about them and now it is speculated that Firefly is the woman above Blade since her clothes looks very similar to her Japela outfit. Now 3 more remain, the Trailblazer (past) could be one of them given that there is so much suggestion that they were a Stellaron Hunter before they had their memory wiped by Kafka. And the other person might be Sunday (future) since there is talk that he could become a Stellaron Hunter after Penacony and then theres another umbrella which could either be another future Stellaron Hunter or someone from the past we havent heard about yet. (And it would work thematically if the theory of Elio being an Emenator of Finality is correct, given that Terminus exists in past and future at the same time)
My theory is that Firefly and Blade are going to be written off from the script cause they outside the web that Kafka is holding,while Kafka,Sliver Wolf,the cat that represent Eilo are inside the web along with three unknown people that are likely recruited later on the story
And in that same quest, Screwllum called her a child. Young enough to be still considered a child, while too old to be called a kid. That's a teenager.
Firefly reminds me a lot of things. Evengenlion. Metroid. Kamen Rider. Gundam. She probably has more inspirations than the ones I mentioned. But man. The SAM armour mechs are soo freaking cool!
One thing to mention with Glamoth, it’s not entirely certain that the Swarm they fought was the same as during the Swarm Disaster. We know that the Swarm is still a major threat in the cosmos (the Astral Express was swallowed by one during the Argenti quest), so Glamoth’s Swarm invasion could be more recent. In my eyes, the Swarm Disaster was so destructive to the extent it was mainly a war between Aeons, with 2/3s of all life being wiped out between Voracity and Propagation. Acheron mentions meeting Iron Cavalry Knights herself, and 1. Given their design as short-lived beings, 2. The extraordinary time gap between the present and Swarm Disaster, and 3. The fact that they would’ve been the frontline against an Aeon’s army, it seems super unlikely that more than one beyond Firefly could’ve survived it. In my opinion, most likely, Glamoth’s fall was relatively recent, probably within a dozen Amber Eras or so.
Fun fact, while it's not really confirmed Firefly is most likely the top center umbrella in kafka's splash art. As the outfit is very similar to the one she wears in the flashback with blade.
Great video! Only thing I doubt is that Firefly would join the Express. I'd love for that to happen, but I can't see Himeko and Welt being like "Well, you know who Elio is and what his plans are, but never mind, welcome aboard!" But stranger things have happened. We'll see.
I predict Blade will either die in a fight with Dan Heng (or maybe even Jingliu) or will go out holding off an Aeon (as it's stated that only and Aeon's level of power could permanently kill him). Or maybe Jing Yuan suffers Mara and they kill each other. I think it'd be neat to get a Lightning Hunt Jing Yuan (and maybe another version of Yangqing with him being Erudition as a nice reversal). I could see both Firefly and Silverwolf eventually joining the express. As for Kafka, given her close relationship to the Trailblazer, I think she might either die (trying to save the Trailblazer, thus discovering the fear of losing someone she loves) or will get a new version of her where she'll try to experience fear and just go out exploring the universe but still keeping in contact with the Trailblazer much like how I see Acheron's story going after Penacony.
HEAR ME OUT new area - Amphoreus the aeon there - remembrance what does remembrance do - freeze enemies all the stellaron hunters use different elements so I think the new stellaron hunter will be a ice nihillity, hunt, erudition, preservation, or abundance character as there is not much limited 5 star ice characters.
Glamoth wasn't an Empire, but an interplanetary nation know as The Republic of Glamoth The "Welkin Empire of Glamoth" is the dream that the Iron Cavalry were woven into.
I think the hunters are fairly good at dressing for the various planets they go to but I believe someone else that Elio really needs is somebody well versed in espionage capable of disguising themselves as various other people… Kinda like Sparkle actually.
Sam's reference is many things to be honest. Her plugsuit is definitely an eva ref Her jump kick and transformation by using an item is definitely a Kamen Rider reference
Dude im not gonna lie a was so scared when you said: 14:39 '[about Baiheng] a hero of the Xianzhou history and actually was a Nameless for a awhile. Although HE was a very timid boy' He!!! Damn, you referred Blade so suddenly i thought you were saying Baiheng was a boy for a second xD
Haha Should have had a bigger pause before moving onto blade so thats fair I also avoided saying her name the whole video because I tried for like 20 minutes and just couldnt get it right 🤣 (I struggle with speach)
@@TheGamerChronicles999 Dont worry, your pronunciation was immaculate throughout the whole video. Besides people that complain about how words are said are nerds >:c I love your hsr videos. Please keep up the good work!!
@antondrown Ahahaha ya people can really zero in on that sorta thing and its always been my weakness so I'm used to getting grilled for it🙃 But very much appreciate that!!
Yo I love this kind of villain/antihero/antagonist groups like Akatsuki, the Phantom Troupe or Stellaron Hunters. Just a small bunch of misterious and powerful people with their own ideals and way of doing things. They give any story the spice it needs
I would be surprised if Firefly actually gets to join the Express. Beyond various other factors, narratively speaking, Sam is a bit overpowered for the hero group to just bust out for any given threat.
I do think it'd be cool to have her join, but part of me likes having the more friendly Hunters staying with the team. In the same way you can be friendly with either Silverwolf or Kafka, I would like that with Firefly. It'd be another way the game kinda says "The Stellaron Hunters aren't monsters, they're people, but still criminals" much in the way the games goes out of it's way to say that Kafka cares about you if you talk to Welt or Himeko during her companion mission. Still really curious to see how our relationship with Elio was? I kinda want him to treat us like an old friend he wants to see again, but can't because it's not the right time.
I remember seeing some amazing artwork with the Stellaron Hunters before the PS5 release.. Fell in love with Sam and Blades art.. Seeing them immediately when i started to game drug me in.. My favorite faction since the mages guild in Elder Scrolls Oblivion
Honestly a really interesting thing im excited about the end of HSR is the battle between the Lord Ravagers and Arbiter Generals. Thats shits gonna be fire
Theory/Speculation - If you pay attention to kafka's splash art, there are 4 more people in it, And Elio already knows Destiny/The Future so he more then likely already picked 4 more stellaron hunters to recruit and we'll probably be seeing them in the future. If i had to take a guess Atm Sunday is very high on the recruit list. Resourceful, sharp and most definitely would focus on the bigger picture since this gives him a chance to redeem himself for all he did, not to mention save his sister from whatever bad ending future Elio has foreseen.
I don't know if it would make sense to have more Stellaron Hunters, I thought the crows in the Jepella trailer were a foreshadow of Sunday joining, but if he isn't, how are they gonna justify the IPC, or anybody else, not even the members talking about that person...
Even though theyre very different i see the stellaron hunters as kind of the fatui of this game if you think about it like the fatui theyre getting into other nations or planets and theyre after something because someone told them to get and all joined the group for a specific reason like how scara wants to betray the gods because of his mommy issues
I have this … well, not a theory, but this hope. That we’ll be getting a new planet for one of two reasons: 1. To unlock a new Path for MC 2. To obtain an Ally from a Path I mean, it would make some sense, right? I’m pretty sure a fight on an Aeonic scale would require so many people to join together, I mean, look at Tayzzyronth for example! So yeah … IPC, Masked Fools, Knights of Beauty, History Fictionologist, and so on. There’s just a crazy amount of potential if this turns out to be the case.
I like to think that The MC is a living adaptive Curio since they have the uncanny ability to use different curio types effectively and store the stelleron in their body. I mean who thinks of throwing their hat like a boomerang unless they can get a read on the potential of the curio they hold (assuming that like the baseball bat, the hat and Lance count as curios)
I think two potentially members joining the hunters are Sunday and Constance. Mostly for the fact the Sunday needs to see the universe, and the trailblazers might not be so open to him joining rn... And Constance is incredibly powerful. She is the most exceptional member of the Ever-flame Manson, and a potential creamator. She might have followed the path of Destruction in the beginning, but now I believe she'll follow a different path from her "Father." She's also my personal favorite (living) member of the Ever-flame Mansion, Alongside the wraith looking Dubra 🔥🔥🔥🔥💜💜💜
Kafka has a terrifying mind control power so that's why she's dangerous she can dominate any living beings except aeons to fight each other on her behalf technically she can turn the tide of the battle in an instant.
Firefly and Sams design is inspired by mech anime and kamen rider or power ranger shows Her "zero suit" definitely takes inspiration from Neon Genesis Evangelion And Sam's design overall takes inspiration from Lancelot from Code Geass (especially in combustion state) The animation for firefly turning into Sam is by using a device that looks like the ones they use in Kamen Rider shows.
I’d imagine there would be more Stelleron Hunters out there. Unless Elio himself is coming on the next world we visit, I’d imagine we’d get someone else.
Oh, Silverwolf working at a restaurant and being adopted? Almost an exact mirror of her Honkai Impact 3rd counterpart, Haxxor Bunny, who Silverwolf plays as when playing HI3rd. In the case of Haxxor Bunny, aka, Bronie, in some bubble world, she was adopted by Ciora, a bubble world counterpart of Natasha of HI3rd. She has an adopted sister that is a Theresa. I say "a Theresa", because in HI3rd, there are so many bubble worlds that have their own version of Theresa, a Kallen clone in main canon of HI3rd that after Otto Apocalypse, the main antagonist of a good chunk of HI3rd's main story and ironically lead Schicksal, Earth's greatest force against the Honkai, saw Kallen's kindness in Theresa as she gave mercy to another Kallen clone that Otto was pitting against her to the death, he decided to adopt her as his granddaughter, since Otto is technically more than 500 years old thanks to replacement bodies for himself to extend his time in the world of the living. Back to main point: Bronie may have worked at a restaurant of sorts under Ciora, but she HATED working there. Bronie would at times throw a fit over that and storm off. In the end though, Haxxor Bunny left her home bubble world to seek what lies beyond the "curtain" surrounding her bubble world. It's after this she meets Captain, the player's self insert in Captainverse, leading onto further Captainverse stories that came after. Excuse me if there's any errors or missing info here, I first played HI3rd late, so the earliest Captainverse event chapter I got to experience was the Arc City one starring Haxxor Bunny, since unlike Star Rail, once a time limited event expires, anything in the game tied to it except permanent rewards from it you obtained in the event, is removed from the game entirely
Jade also asks firefly for "the black cats tail" basically asking her to kill elio despite the ipc wanting elio alive and the rest of the stellaron hunters dead.
Im curious if there be an additional stellaron hunter that involves in merchant services. Like how kafka got her weapon and blade weapon being refine since in kafka ultimate there an additional umbrellas
it just, that i find this somewhat plausible about elio's script and i call it the "script's error" like we know the stellaron hunters doesn't really mind welt existence as we don't know if he exist in that script considering he already travels to that universe several time before settling for journey but, that is where the " error" lies. it just that, we know that terminus can travel back and fort in time and welt existence doesn't really exist in the past as his history recently exist the moment he steps in, in that universe. and depending where planet we are, we can meet the alternate characters from hi3 to hsr. ex being sushang bronya seele and loucha, these characters are part of the main cast and that is why the existence of alternate rita and durandal possible. the notion here is, what if. the welt we have was not supposed to be the welt boarded in express but instead the alternate welt that exist in hsr. that is why when stellaron hunters received the the "script", the welt that boarded in the astral express was the same in the script but in reality, it was supposed to be the alternate version that should boarded in the express. and terminus seeing welt would think that it was same welt.
Before silver wolf became hacker and stellaron hunter… she was a food delivery with minimum wage 😂 she so bored with her life and picked a fight with scruwlem
Prolific does not equal dangerous. Kafka is just the intermediary and acts as the face and voice of the hunters. Her bounties are most likely the result of the visibility of her as the representative, not because she did it all herself. I honestly didn't make any connection between Samus and Firefly until this video and I still don't really associate them. I just saw her as a kamen rider, but in space. I wonder if emanators are shielded from Elio's foresight by virtue of being close to their Aeon. That would explain why Acheron didn't show up in the script.
also if sam quits the hunters then jingliu would be the rank 1 contender as she is literally blade's master in a way and is better than her, furthermore she will have a reason to stay because kafka can kind of soothe mara or whatever she does to blade, though jingliu seems to have half of that issue figured out.
What do you mean they're anti-heroes? They're fluffy buns compared to the IPC. Well there's always a place to subversion of course. Elio might be a false prophet unknowingly (or knowingly) or just plainly a bad guy and the IPC (or at least Ten Stonehearts) might turn to a better side in the end (given some info from Gold & Gears that implies Diamond isn't happy with what bacame of the IPC and probably wants to reform it). But for now Hunters are a bunch of cute fluffy maniacs and outlaws who's just harmless compared to the IPC and Stonehearts haha.
Harmless is far from it. Do you remember the big list of crimes and casualties that the Japella Brothers listed which Kafka and the stellaron hunters had done?
@@isaacPc9, first of all, it was the irony. Second, compared to the IPC - yes, harmless. The IPC is guilty of destroying up to 12 inhabitated planets trying to stop Legion using Chadwick's bomb instead of using their troops "because it's cheaper and effective", they destroyed Boothill's (home?) planet inhabitants and at least another one planet documented to get resources they want and so on. While Kafka in Jepella Rebellion trailer pleads guilty of all the listed crimes, there's always a "but" (though we don't know if these "buts" real or she was just moking those guys). And we don't know those Stellarons statuses, were they active? Were they sealed? It they were sealed, by who? We know The Nameless can seal them and probably Hunters. Herta sealed one. Is it a common ability if Herta brags about it in "Herta's Manuscripts"? So those Stellarons could've been active and so corrupting those worlds anyway. So yeah, for now, compared to the IPC, Hunters aren't that bad. If something beg happens later, I'll change my mind. But there's a high probability the IPC will do something much worse trough the course of the story.
@@isaacPc9 ah damn it, I wrote a huge reply from smartphone but looks like it somehow didn't appear what the hell YT??? Anyway, briefly speaking, for now and, as I said, compared to the IPC they're alright. In Jepella Rebellion trailer Kafka pleaded guilty of all listed crimes, yeah, but there was always a "but" (though we don't know if those "buts" were true or she just mocked poor guys who tired to sentence her), so it seemed like Hunters didn't just went there and caused calamity upon peaceful people, also we don't know anything about those Stellarons they acquired during their crimes. Were they active? Were they sealed? We know that The Nameless can seal Stellarons, Hunters probably too. IIRC, the only known being who managed to seal a Stellaron was Herta (see "Herta's Manuscript") and she brags about it as it's something huge. So those Stellarons were probably destined to bring disaster to the worlds they were on anyway. Compared to the IPC who: - destroyed 12 inhabitated planets with Chadwick's bomb to stop AM Legion instead of sending their troops because "it's fast and efficient"; - slaughtered Boothill's (home?) planet inhabitants to get their resources; - caused catastrophic events on that planet where locals refused to let the IPC mine ore because in those caves deep underground ifrits lived and they thought to be gods by those locals. In the result, locals are all dead and mining goes as planned. And many more. So... yeah, at this point in the game, with our current knowledge and compared to the IPC, they're not anti-heroes, they're seem to be doing much more valuable things than the IPC in its current state (yeah, the IPC done many good things previously, no doubt).
Curious that you did not point out that the 3rd female character we can mostly see on Kafka's art wearing knee socks and a gray suit is probably Firefly. We see her wearing something like that during her car ride with Blade. If Elio is indeed a cat, we can literally see every member on that art.
I wonder how Elio's script works since SAM tried to deviate to test her free will but the script couldn't be avoided. But on the Xianzhou Luofu, Kafka gave us the option of not going but we would loop back around eventually and the Star rail would be contaminated. Like if we actually had the choice of not going than would that classify as going against the script. The script seems to be absolute on the immediate future but not the distant.
I was under the impression that we are one of the few who can change the script, kinda like how Aven said we have the ability to change the outcome of the game
I'd argue that the main inspiration for Firefly/SAM is not Samus but Sam Gideon from Vanquish. Both power armors are very lookalike and both have some kind of "heat" mechanic. While Sam Gideon from Vanquish do prefer using rifles, he also has a melee attack which instantaneously overheats his armor.
Yeah that could be too and definitely dont mean it to be a negative thing either that she took inspiration just thought it was funny cause I played metorid growing up haha
For firefly she mostly a tokusatsu resfrence from her skill be a rider kick to her technique that like a ultraman rising pose and hoyoverse they are also a tokusatsu from Kiana herrscher finality ultimate animation
They never existed. Titania was a construct that thought it was an Empress and had an Empire, to allow it to telepathicly control the Fireflies and made them fight because they were brainwashed to believe they had an Empress and Empire to defend.
SAM is more inspired by the entire mecha genre and/or the Evangelion series rather than Metroid per se, as the source of inspiration for the Honkai series as a whole as elaborated by the founders themselves back in 2010 ish. But the rest of the video is a good breakdown / hypothesis
Well that's is true Fire Fly woke me up yesterday morning with 10 gold tickets and Fire Fly surprised me with those 10 gold tickets wanting her own life and adventure. My game play wasn't normal at the moment I got Fire Fly. I got a Rainbow ticket when Fire Fly came home. How many times do I have to say Friends come in many ways. I am really excited to celebrate the end to the dream planet with Fire Fly coming home Yesterday morning at 5:27am. Good bye HSR COMMUNITY.
I had theory the reason why Elio is cat is because cats have nine lives. Rather than seeing the future, it’s more like he experience 8 different timelines where universe failed to prevent Nanook from destroying the universe. Elio is a regressor rather than a seer. Which is why the script isn’t perfect and can be changed.
Being a member of the masked fools, i highly doubt she is with them but might be working alongside Elio, i still have no idea how she knew everything about Penacony while every other character where scrambling around trying to discover the truth. And honestly i feel like her existence is too much of a variable that she could have messed up some of Elio's foresight and prior script to his members
Hope you all enjoy the video also working on how I think the main MC connects to SH before the games events! With that said who is your favourite? For me its Silver Wolf or Blade hard to decide
Silver Wolf and Firefly are my two favorite characters in the game I can't choose between them 😭
bladie for sure, need more exposition on the rest of the gang
Can you give me your source for the info that Kafka was the first stellaron hunter recruited? Because her character story 4 implies the opposite as it's written as one of Elio's scripts that's instructing someone else to recruit Kafka. (I don't think it's Sam though since Elio says he's going to make that persons wish for the future an reality when they die, which kinda contradicts Sam's wish to be healed and have purpose )
@sepphero9639 I was saving this for another video but a general assumption I have was that Kafka was actually recruited by the main MC and its this whole big thing but as for all the current memebers shes first recruited going off what we know about her from her story and from Elio
@@sepphero9639it was Sam or I guess the MC themselves but no one else fits. Blade can ONLY be controlled with Kafka, SW was after Kafka. So that only leaves 2 others
What's weird to me is when Elio recruits Kafka he is talking to another person and he says something about Kafka killing this second person and then Elio if they fail to get her to cooperate. My theory was that this second person was SAM but Kafka killing SAM so easily seems weird, the only other option is that the TB was this second person helping Elio from the beginning.
Ya definitely want to explore the TB and Elio in its own video so much sus stuff we dont know there
I'm pretty sure the second person is just some random goon. I mean, it would make sense for Elio to be able to hire random jackasses with the promise of acomplishing their dreams. I don't know the power gap between Sam and Kafka, mainly because I don't know how Firefly can handle her Whisper, but I severely doubt that Kafka would have such an easy time. A sword and two uzis don't really compare to a suit that allows you to fly through space and enter highly hazardous areas without any health effects, not to mention crashing into the ground at higher than terminal velocity without harming herself. I guess whether or not Kafka would win is entirely dependent on her silly strings. And as for the TB, I'm pretty sure they were made and dropped on Kafka's lap well during Kafka's service as a Stellaron Hunter.
@TheGamerChronicles999 the Trailblazer dose had an black coat on there which all member wear an black coat or jacket,and had an animal mofit like most members not sure on Blade
@@TheGamerChronicles999 I think Elio is an Emanator of the Finality due to the many Scripts or Prophecies Elio's been making
We don't really have enough information to say definitively who was the recruiter for Kafka's last character story. But if it was Trailblazer, and then TB and Kafka recruited Samfly, that seems like the most thematically appropriate recruitment order for all three characters involved. TB is 'given' to Kafka by Elio during Kaf's recruitment, with Elio's message to her explaining her destiny with TB, then Firefly meets TB as one of the first people she sees after being trapped in cryo for untold centuries.
The Stelleron Hunters are like the illegal and dark version of the Astral Express to me…
I swear to God, if Elio was finally shown and somehow saying something about Schrodinger Cat Box and how the future is both exist and not exist simultaneously or some parallel science theory... I'm gonna pet my black cat.
I mean there is already an Aeon that lives in the past and in the future at the same timme, so Elio having something similar wouldn't be far fetch.
I think MC also part of Stelaron Hunter. Because during Kafka companion quest Blade reveal that MC use to be Kafka partner, and he said that no one stay the longest by Kafka side other than MC, Silver Wolf also said that MC, and Stelaron Hunter are actualy an old friends before MC joining the Astral Express.
Ya very curious to see what that connection is down the line
@@TheGamerChronicles999they even had an black coat too which they share,also there an popular theory that Sunday is joining the Stellaron hunter
@@TheGamerChronicles999Not to mention Kafka's 4th Character Story. Eilo instructed someone to approach her by following his "butterfly-effect script" with the chances of being killed, which resulted in a doom future.
I did some research about Firefly and I believe that Trailblazer was also responsible of recruiting her into the Stellaron Hunters.
@@XavierLeyva make sense for Traiblazer along side Kafka recruiting Firefly or even found her somewhere in space. I think that also the reason why Firefly feel so attach or even have close bond with Traiblazer not only they save her, both Firefly, and the MC are Artificial/Genetic Modified Human so both of them can understand each other.
@@AbyssalDarking970 They’re both living weapons. I have the same thought too on everything you said. However, I believe that Kafka wasn't apart of Firefly's recruitment. I think Kafka was on a different mission when TB found Firefly inside her cryopod. There was even a fan-made manga of it.
There an popular theory that Sunday is joining the Stellaron hunter which would be an ironic twist of fate for him
He's powerful, currently lost and without purpose, and he yearns for something impossible. Yep, top candidate right there
He also has familiarity with a stellaron
@@0v_x0 The question being, "What ability does Sunday offer to the Stellaron Hunters?" I don't know if he still has that Harmony power after the events of 2.2. Perhaps being an actual diplomat that wouldn't cause an immediate arise?
Considering that when talking to the dream master he assumed it was Gopher Wood controlling the stellaron… but throughout that discussion he said “it is not you who controls the stellaron but…” and it ends there, implying Gopher Wood is getting controlled by the stellaron. The same way Cocolia did.
And considering that it is the stellaron that caused his mother’s death… and when questioning Aventurine who actually parallels Sunday quite a bit, the whole upbringing getting taken away as Aventurine actually perfectly embodies the weak that Sunday talk about, he had his self value/future taken away and was forced to become a slave to the IPC who were the people that swore to protect the Avgins yet did nothing because Oswaldo Schneider did nothing so Jade essentially took him in…
Jade is essentially the Gopher Wood for Aventurine, but she is clearly not right in the head, she is a manipulative maniac who believes she is on the “right” path and doing good for others there is a reason in her splash art her snake has an apple… it’s biblical symbolism of Satan.. making a deal with the Devil, and considering that Gopher Wood when looking at his portrait in the dream scape pass is a halovian with completely black wings and a crow in his shoulder…
But Sunday swears to protect the weak that’s why when he asked the last personal question to Aventurine “do you truly wish to see the destruction of this world?” He was being genuine even though he hates the IPC… and seeing that Sunday now saw everyone on Penacony come together to awaken from Ena’s dream and knows that this isn’t what they want, and that behind it all is the stellaron, likely the same one that caused his mother to die and the Family just did a cover up to hide it…
he will return to Penacony and take it, maybe this will be the story of the continuation quest of Penacony, I have came up with the timeline of events and since most HSR stories last for 3 patches it means the Xianzhou lasts from 2.4-2.6 meaning a continuation for Penacony happens in 2.7… and the second half of 2.7 is December 25th using the 6 week rotation since 2,7 releases December 4th… it would make sense the heavily religious character releases Christmas Days…
Also nearly all the stellaron hunters have a crow motif except Elio and SW… Kafka sounds like Kavka in Czech which means Jackdaw, a corvid, not only that there is a book that features Kafka and some cat characters called “Kafka on the shore” which features the alter ego of the main character Kafka who is named “crow”, Blade has crows in his splash art, SAM’s battle theme is called Nevermore referencing Edgar Allen Poe’s poem “The Raven”, which is the inspiration behind the readable associated with Sunday called “The Death of a Crow” which is supposedly the invitation from Elio since you can find the readable before the end of the 2.2 quest in dreamflux reef but it features the events of the quest before it happens meaning the writer can see the future to a degree… I believe the stellaron hunters all have a “crow” of their past they seek to be rid of, and considering Gopher Wood has black wings and a crow sitting on his shoulder in the dream scape pass, he is Sunday’s crow who has brought him up to be the successor of the Great One/Ena
As for the abilities he holds that he could offer… nothing is confirmed but considering he is a guy that nearly ascended into god hood from usurping the power of an Emanator of Harmony… he seems pretty powerful in faith and spirit such as shown by being the only to call upon Ena and perform the consecration… he doesn’t seem physically powerful, but spiritually powerful
@@thederp9309Shheshh that a long paragraphs. And interesting as well.
Kafka was recruited by Elio and an unknown person, and Elio mentioned that Kafka could kill both of them if they failed to convince her. We know Kafka was there to recruit Silver Wolf, Blade, and Firefly, so unless there's still a Stellaron Hunter that's somehow managed to avoid being mentioned this entire time, I reckon the popular theory that the Trailblazer being a Stellaron Hunter in the past holds water. This is also supported by the absolute truckload of evidence about how the Trailblazer being a familiar person to various Stelleron Hunters.
Also I think Firefly's pilot suit takes wayyy more inspiration from Evangelion. That pilot suit is almost a carbon copy of Rei's, especially the knees, thighs, and shoulders
Stellaron Hunters are like Strawhat pirates they might be pirates/criminals with bounty, but they are the friends we made along the way.
elio: meow meow meow MEOW meow
the stellaron hunters: whoa thats crazy man. tell me more
Fun fact: In Myriad Celestia Trailer: Fable About the Star, Black Swan gives us the description of Terminus as "Infant in the mirror" which makes sense since Terminus can't manifest itself to the universe and can be considered the youngest and the oldest Aeon.
Kafka: Most powerful criminal in the universe
Fu Xuan: hehe bullet moves slow
It mosty likely was in the script.
What’s crazy is those bullets are more than likely faster than normal bullets 😂
@@snackeetah2627it def was, that's why Kafka says "finally" right before firing into the air
@@snackeetah2627yeah, even fu xuan knew about it when looking into kafka’s memories.
There's nothing the stellaron hunters do that risks themselves being unable to continue the script, so far only firefly is trying to do that but failing,
I doubt archeron would ever join the Stellaron hunters for the simple fact that killing and hurting people isnt her thing. Most of the situations shown have just been her doing what she has to and actively trying to keep bloodshed to a minimum
Also Elio not being able to see her future makes her a really bad fit
not all stellaron hunters are criminal
@@98-carlmarkmarak22 which one isn't?
@@shadow-faye i mean they do kill people but not the innocent ones , Firefly said she only brings destruction to villains , acheron does the same , they all kill but their victims are all bad ones
@@98-carlmarkmarak22 they're still criminals though, also we don't know that they only kill bad people
At very least they attacked planet screwllum and the space station even if no one died
Favorite Stellaron Hunter is a bit of a tie between Kafka/Firefly, love them both so much.
It's also interesting that most of Elio's visions (according to Firefly) have revolved around Stellarons. Maybe putting a Stellaron in the Trailblazer was a way of expanding his foresight by having a moving Stellaron traverse the universe. I really want to know what our relationship with Elio was (hostile, friendly, indifferent?). I would laugh if it turns out Elio was a stray cat, that the Trailblazer just found, befriended and then crazy stuff happened (Elio got future sight, and the Trailblazer somehow became a vessel capable of housing a Stellaron) and all this is just Elio trying to save his friend/owner's life.
Favourite is silver wolf but I find all the stelleron hunters really interesting. I do like how the stelleron hunters are not morally good but they aren't the worse people in the universe. Gotta love the morally grey characters.
SILVER WOLF SUPREMACY ‼️‼️🩶🐺🐺🐺🐺
I think the SH is more like the anti-villain, the IPC is more similar to Fatui, while the Annihilation Gang is the mini boss from Nanook & his Emanators. The true villain would probably revealed near the end of the story
Depends if they start introducing more Emenators of destruction. Hopefully better than how Phantylia was introduced out of left field. As for the IPC, I've heard a theory that they're about to enter into a civil war between the Ten Stone hearts vs Oswaldo Schneider.
Adventurine: hey girly~
Kafka's whole getup is exactly the same as Polka Kakamond, same hair color too, I SUMMON THY THEORISTS
Polka from same planet and also lacks fear, allowing her to become as powerful as she did (and not gaf about murdering geniuses)?
My theory there is that Polka is a 'Kafka-face' in the way Silver Wolf and Belobog-Bronya are both Bronya-faces. Polka does seem much older than Kafka, and Kafka talks about her if you inspect Polka's portrait during the prologue that indicate that she's a different person, at least.
isnt polka also from the same planet?
@@AdrianArmbruster Kafka wasn't already a character in HI3 tho, just an item but maybe
@@0v_x0she’s in hi3
Given Kafka's splashart at 22:58 it can be inferred that there are 2 other female Stellaron Hunters (behind Blade & Kafka) and 2 unknown hunters (at the bottom).
I'm left to think that Firefly is the one below Blade (given that it roughly matches her design).
Actually 🤓 when we went to the Xianzhou Luofu, it is mentioned there are only 5 stellaron hunters
Actually 🤓 when we went to the Xianzhou Luofu, it is mentioned there are only 5 stellaron hunters
@The0neand0nli that we know of
To be fair, it may be that there are only 5 “Active” Stellaron Hunters, and not that there are “exactly” 5 Stellaron Hunters.
For example: following the theory that the MC is actually part of the group, then we are not technically an “Active” member (as we are part of the Astral Express, not the SH), so it could be that a few of their roster is simply not actively needed or is sitting out due to Elio’s script or any such reasons.
I believe that the Stellaron Hunters have 9 active members based on Kafka's gacha art(including Elio). 9th person would be the one where you can also see her/his heels. I find it mysterious that this person is facing towards them or even walking towards them. Also in Kafka's gacha art we can see the the reflections of their surrounding and it seems that there are no other people within the area that were walking or travelling meaning the are they were in is not crowded, this leads me to believe that this person (the one with hills on) is also part of the organization making them nine.
It's probably firefly
I kind of disagree on the floor at the reflection is clearly shown that there are multiple other people plus only the stellaron hunters are shown with there bodies the women in his can very well just be a bystander
@@isaiahhaley4816 The reflections don't seem to look like human bodies if you look closely. One of the reflections looks like tree branches while the other seems to be a structure of some kind. other than those reflections I dont see anything that seems to resemble a human on the reflections
@@luckytako633 it’s literally raining where they are plus, the fact shadows aren’t the greatest reflections of a human body and the fact that there are multiple lights where they are so it’s kind of valid. I don’t think there’s more than five stellaron hunters if there were we would’ve known about it through either voice lines or the rest of the hunters mentioning them
@@isaiahhaley4816 What reflections are you even talking about?
Ok hear me out on my theory here. What if the people with umbrellas in Kafka's splash art depict future and past Stellaron Hunters. At first when Kafka was first released we only knew of Blade and Silver Wolf and theorized that Elio was the black cat, later on we learned more about them and now it is speculated that Firefly is the woman above Blade since her clothes looks very similar to her Japela outfit. Now 3 more remain, the Trailblazer (past) could be one of them given that there is so much suggestion that they were a Stellaron Hunter before they had their memory wiped by Kafka. And the other person might be Sunday (future) since there is talk that he could become a Stellaron Hunter after Penacony and then theres another umbrella which could either be another future Stellaron Hunter or someone from the past we havent heard about yet. (And it would work thematically if the theory of Elio being an Emenator of Finality is correct, given that Terminus exists in past and future at the same time)
I really liked your theory
My theory is that Firefly and Blade are going to be written off from the script cause they outside the web that Kafka is holding,while Kafka,Sliver Wolf,the cat that represent Eilo are inside the web along with three unknown people that are likely recruited later on the story
I really liked your theory because everyone in Kafka's splash art is wearing black, and Sunday is speculated to be playable, but in dark clothes.
Y'all know Silver Wolf isn't a teenager right? Kafka even tells her to stop throwing a tantrum because she isn't a Kid anymore
Some people say teenagers aren't kids
She’s estimated to be between 17 and 19 which would not make her a kid anymore but still a teenager
yes cause teenagers aren't kids, that doesn't make her an adult
And in that same quest, Screwllum called her a child.
Young enough to be still considered a child, while too old to be called a kid. That's a teenager.
Ppl forget women can be petite without being in their adolescence
Firefly reminds me a lot of things. Evengenlion. Metroid. Kamen Rider. Gundam. She probably has more inspirations than the ones I mentioned. But man. The SAM armour mechs are soo freaking cool!
the transformation device she used look like old ultraman transformation device
@@Nekoyamanekotama true true! Forgot about that as well. Soo used to the new Ultraman’s henshin items
She reminds me of Melfina of Outlaw Star
One thing to mention with Glamoth, it’s not entirely certain that the Swarm they fought was the same as during the Swarm Disaster. We know that the Swarm is still a major threat in the cosmos (the Astral Express was swallowed by one during the Argenti quest), so Glamoth’s Swarm invasion could be more recent.
In my eyes, the Swarm Disaster was so destructive to the extent it was mainly a war between Aeons, with 2/3s of all life being wiped out between Voracity and Propagation. Acheron mentions meeting Iron Cavalry Knights herself, and 1. Given their design as short-lived beings, 2. The extraordinary time gap between the present and Swarm Disaster, and 3. The fact that they would’ve been the frontline against an Aeon’s army, it seems super unlikely that more than one beyond Firefly could’ve survived it.
In my opinion, most likely, Glamoth’s fall was relatively recent, probably within a dozen Amber Eras or so.
Fun fact, while it's not really confirmed Firefly is most likely the top center umbrella in kafka's splash art. As the outfit is very similar to the one she wears in the flashback with blade.
Great video! Only thing I doubt is that Firefly would join the Express. I'd love for that to happen, but I can't see Himeko and Welt being like "Well, you know who Elio is and what his plans are, but never mind, welcome aboard!"
But stranger things have happened. We'll see.
I bet you when all closures are given to these stellaron hunters, it will be the most tragic/heartwarming scene of all time.
I predict Blade will either die in a fight with Dan Heng (or maybe even Jingliu) or will go out holding off an Aeon (as it's stated that only and Aeon's level of power could permanently kill him). Or maybe Jing Yuan suffers Mara and they kill each other. I think it'd be neat to get a Lightning Hunt Jing Yuan (and maybe another version of Yangqing with him being Erudition as a nice reversal).
I could see both Firefly and Silverwolf eventually joining the express.
As for Kafka, given her close relationship to the Trailblazer, I think she might either die (trying to save the Trailblazer, thus discovering the fear of losing someone she loves) or will get a new version of her where she'll try to experience fear and just go out exploring the universe but still keeping in contact with the Trailblazer much like how I see Acheron's story going after Penacony.
The woman with the umbrella in Kafkas splashart is Firefly, same clothes she was wearing in the car sceene with Blade
HEAR ME OUT
new area - Amphoreus
the aeon there - remembrance
what does remembrance do - freeze enemies
all the stellaron hunters use different elements so I think the new stellaron hunter will be a ice nihillity, hunt, erudition, preservation, or abundance character as there is not much limited 5 star ice characters.
"Space Fatui Harbingers"
Been thinking this ever since I've learned of the group for the first time
Glamoth wasn't an Empire, but an interplanetary nation know as The Republic of Glamoth
The "Welkin Empire of Glamoth" is the dream that the Iron Cavalry were woven into.
I think the hunters are fairly good at dressing for the various planets they go to but I believe someone else that Elio really needs is somebody well versed in espionage capable of disguising themselves as various other people…
Kinda like Sparkle actually.
Sam's reference is many things to be honest.
Her plugsuit is definitely an eva ref
Her jump kick and transformation by using an item is definitely a Kamen Rider reference
the bright glowing wings she gets at the end of the animated short are almost definitely a Gundam Trans-AM reference
Dude im not gonna lie a was so scared when you said: 14:39
'[about Baiheng] a hero of the Xianzhou history and actually was a Nameless for a awhile. Although HE was a very timid boy'
He!!! Damn, you referred Blade so suddenly i thought you were saying Baiheng was a boy for a second xD
same lol
Haha Should have had a bigger pause before moving onto blade so thats fair I also avoided saying her name the whole video because I tried for like 20 minutes and just couldnt get it right 🤣 (I struggle with speach)
@@TheGamerChronicles999 Dont worry, your pronunciation was immaculate throughout the whole video. Besides people that complain about how words are said are nerds >:c

@antondrown Ahahaha ya people can really zero in on that sorta thing and its always been my weakness so I'm used to getting grilled for it🙃 But very much appreciate that!!
Yo I love this kind of villain/antihero/antagonist groups like Akatsuki, the Phantom Troupe or Stellaron Hunters.
Just a small bunch of misterious and powerful people with their own ideals and way of doing things. They give any story the spice it needs
I would be surprised if Firefly actually gets to join the Express. Beyond various other factors, narratively speaking, Sam is a bit overpowered for the hero group to just bust out for any given threat.
I hope Firefly join astral express🙏🙏
Den hang and welt are in the express they are already overpowered so I don’t think firefly would be a problem
I do think it'd be cool to have her join, but part of me likes having the more friendly Hunters staying with the team. In the same way you can be friendly with either Silverwolf or Kafka, I would like that with Firefly. It'd be another way the game kinda says "The Stellaron Hunters aren't monsters, they're people, but still criminals" much in the way the games goes out of it's way to say that Kafka cares about you if you talk to Welt or Himeko during her companion mission.
Still really curious to see how our relationship with Elio was? I kinda want him to treat us like an old friend he wants to see again, but can't because it's not the right time.
Her being overpower is balance by the fact her power has a brutal price, her like is shorten more and more
You say that like Welt isn't already there bruh
I remember seeing some amazing artwork with the Stellaron Hunters before the PS5 release.. Fell in love with Sam and Blades art.. Seeing them immediately when i started to game drug me in.. My favorite faction since the mages guild in Elder Scrolls Oblivion
fantastic video thanks keep up the good work!
Honestly a really interesting thing im excited about the end of HSR is the battle between the Lord Ravagers and Arbiter Generals. Thats shits gonna be fire
Theory/Speculation - If you pay attention to kafka's splash art, there are 4 more people in it, And Elio already knows Destiny/The Future so he more then likely already picked 4 more stellaron hunters to recruit and we'll probably be seeing them in the future.
If i had to take a guess Atm Sunday is very high on the recruit list. Resourceful, sharp and most definitely would focus on the bigger picture since this gives him a chance to redeem himself for all he did, not to mention save his sister from whatever bad ending future Elio has foreseen.
Kafka: The most dangerous person in the universe
Kirby: Don’t copy my flow lil bro
I don't know if it would make sense to have more Stellaron Hunters, I thought the crows in the Jepella trailer were a foreshadow of Sunday joining, but if he isn't, how are they gonna justify the IPC, or anybody else, not even the members talking about that person...
Even though theyre very different i see the stellaron hunters as kind of the fatui of this game if you think about it like the fatui theyre getting into other nations or planets and theyre after something because someone told them to get and all joined the group for a specific reason like how scara wants to betray the gods because of his mommy issues
Don't forget Firefly is also in Kafka's splash art.
I really hope Sunday joins the Stellaron Hunters & Firefly joins the express. They really feel like they’d fit perfectly into said groups ♡
maaan i love your videos , and i hecking love hsr lore.
Appreciate it 😊
I have this … well, not a theory, but this hope. That we’ll be getting a new planet for one of two reasons:
1. To unlock a new Path for MC
2. To obtain an Ally from a Path
I mean, it would make some sense, right? I’m pretty sure a fight on an Aeonic scale would require so many people to join together, I mean, look at Tayzzyronth for example!
So yeah … IPC, Masked Fools, Knights of Beauty, History Fictionologist, and so on. There’s just a crazy amount of potential if this turns out to be the case.
I need a timestamp for this video. Incase I need to refresh my knowledge on the Stellaron Hunters, because I'm collecting them all.
I like to think that The MC is a living adaptive Curio since they have the uncanny ability to use different curio types effectively and store the stelleron in their body. I mean who thinks of throwing their hat like a boomerang unless they can get a read on the potential of the curio they hold (assuming that like the baseball bat, the hat and Lance count as curios)
Gyatt damm firefly thick in Kafka splash art 🥶🤤🤤
I think two potentially members joining the hunters are Sunday and Constance. Mostly for the fact the Sunday needs to see the universe, and the trailblazers might not be so open to him joining rn... And Constance is incredibly powerful. She is the most exceptional member of the Ever-flame Manson, and a potential creamator. She might have followed the path of Destruction in the beginning, but now I believe she'll follow a different path from her "Father."
She's also my personal favorite (living) member of the Ever-flame Mansion, Alongside the wraith looking Dubra 🔥🔥🔥🔥💜💜💜
Kafka has a terrifying mind control power so that's why she's dangerous she can dominate any living beings except aeons to fight each other on her behalf technically she can turn the tide of the battle in an instant.
ive been thinking, Elio is definitely related to trailblazing, been playing the background to aid us to trailblaze
Firefly and Sams design is inspired by mech anime and kamen rider or power ranger shows
Her "zero suit" definitely takes inspiration from Neon Genesis Evangelion
And Sam's design overall takes inspiration from Lancelot from Code Geass (especially in combustion state)
The animation for firefly turning into Sam is by using a device that looks like the ones they use in Kamen Rider shows.
9:28 a self duplicated what now?!?😭
Ahahaha nonono there is no W at the start of that but that did make me laugh🤣🤣🤣
I’d imagine there would be more Stelleron Hunters out there.
Unless Elio himself is coming on the next world we visit, I’d imagine we’d get someone else.
To be perfectly honest, life is a game... A game which Universe plays with itself.
Firefly's "zero" suit is a Plugsuit from Evangelion most likely, as we know Hoyo is obsessed with eva
5:34 yo that’s my one piece Kafka wanted poster edit lol
Yo you made that? It looked so official haha my bad I will include a link in the discription sorry about that I thought it was legit 🤣
@@TheGamerChronicles999 Nah it’s fine man lol, waiting for SAM trailer so I can make one for her too 💪

Also fun fact - the girl standing behind Kafka in her splash art is speculated to be Firefly!
Oh, Silverwolf working at a restaurant and being adopted? Almost an exact mirror of her Honkai Impact 3rd counterpart, Haxxor Bunny, who Silverwolf plays as when playing HI3rd. In the case of Haxxor Bunny, aka, Bronie, in some bubble world, she was adopted by Ciora, a bubble world counterpart of Natasha of HI3rd. She has an adopted sister that is a Theresa. I say "a Theresa", because in HI3rd, there are so many bubble worlds that have their own version of Theresa, a Kallen clone in main canon of HI3rd that after Otto Apocalypse, the main antagonist of a good chunk of HI3rd's main story and ironically lead Schicksal, Earth's greatest force against the Honkai, saw Kallen's kindness in Theresa as she gave mercy to another Kallen clone that Otto was pitting against her to the death, he decided to adopt her as his granddaughter, since Otto is technically more than 500 years old thanks to replacement bodies for himself to extend his time in the world of the living. Back to main point: Bronie may have worked at a restaurant of sorts under Ciora, but she HATED working there. Bronie would at times throw a fit over that and storm off. In the end though, Haxxor Bunny left her home bubble world to seek what lies beyond the "curtain" surrounding her bubble world. It's after this she meets Captain, the player's self insert in Captainverse, leading onto further Captainverse stories that came after. Excuse me if there's any errors or missing info here, I first played HI3rd late, so the earliest Captainverse event chapter I got to experience was the Arc City one starring Haxxor Bunny, since unlike Star Rail, once a time limited event expires, anything in the game tied to it except permanent rewards from it you obtained in the event, is removed from the game entirely
Stellaron Hunters: Cool personal doing cool shit, and then a grumpy kid. Why?
Jade also asks firefly for "the black cats tail" basically asking her to kill elio despite the ipc wanting elio alive and the rest of the stellaron hunters dead.
Im curious if there be an additional stellaron hunter that involves in merchant services. Like how kafka got her weapon and blade weapon being refine since in kafka ultimate there an additional umbrellas
10:07 never thought about it that way but I guess it checks out 🤔
Firefly and Silverwolf ❤❤
it just, that i find this somewhat plausible about elio's script and i call it the "script's error" like we know the stellaron hunters doesn't really mind welt existence as we don't know if he exist in that script considering he already travels to that universe several time before settling for journey but, that is where the " error" lies. it just that, we know that terminus can travel back and fort in time and welt existence doesn't really exist in the past as his history recently exist the moment he steps in, in that universe. and depending where planet we are, we can meet the alternate characters from hi3 to hsr. ex being sushang bronya seele and loucha, these characters are part of the main cast and that is why the existence of alternate rita and durandal possible. the notion here is, what if. the welt we have was not supposed to be the welt boarded in express but instead the alternate welt that exist in hsr. that is why when stellaron hunters received the the "script", the welt that boarded in the astral express was the same in the script but in reality, it was supposed to be the alternate version that should boarded in the express. and terminus seeing welt would think that it was same welt.
8:00 didnt mention the cat, thought he wouldve been mentioned as Elio maybe?
I did mention the cat tho
Its was before that time stamp you skipped it 🙃
Before silver wolf became hacker and stellaron hunter… she was a food delivery with minimum wage 😂 she so bored with her life and picked a fight with scruwlem
It's funny though, 9 people on the Kafka's splash art and 9 lives for a cat...
Blade. I'm getting tattoo of him soon, I empathise with wanting to bring somebody back so badly, but screwing up because of that.
Prolific does not equal dangerous. Kafka is just the intermediary and acts as the face and voice of the hunters. Her bounties are most likely the result of the visibility of her as the representative, not because she did it all herself.
I honestly didn't make any connection between Samus and Firefly until this video and I still don't really associate them. I just saw her as a kamen rider, but in space.
I wonder if emanators are shielded from Elio's foresight by virtue of being close to their Aeon. That would explain why Acheron didn't show up in the script.
I need a firefly vid with i want to stay at your home playing increase the feels pain
Also firefly old as heck
also if sam quits the hunters then jingliu would be the rank 1 contender as she is literally blade's master in a way and is better than her, furthermore she will have a reason to stay because kafka can kind of soothe mara or whatever she does to blade, though jingliu seems to have half of that issue figured out.
What do you mean they're anti-heroes? They're fluffy buns compared to the IPC. Well there's always a place to subversion of course. Elio might be a false prophet unknowingly (or knowingly) or just plainly a bad guy and the IPC (or at least Ten Stonehearts) might turn to a better side in the end (given some info from Gold & Gears that implies Diamond isn't happy with what bacame of the IPC and probably wants to reform it). But for now Hunters are a bunch of cute fluffy maniacs and outlaws who's just harmless compared to the IPC and Stonehearts haha.
Harmless is far from it. Do you remember the big list of crimes and casualties that the Japella Brothers listed which Kafka and the stellaron hunters had done?
@@isaacPc9, first of all, it was the irony. Second, compared to the IPC - yes, harmless. The IPC is guilty of destroying up to 12 inhabitated planets trying to stop Legion using Chadwick's bomb instead of using their troops "because it's cheaper and effective", they destroyed Boothill's (home?) planet inhabitants and at least another one planet documented to get resources they want and so on. While Kafka in Jepella Rebellion trailer pleads guilty of all the listed crimes, there's always a "but" (though we don't know if these "buts" real or she was just moking those guys). And we don't know those Stellarons statuses, were they active? Were they sealed? It they were sealed, by who? We know The Nameless can seal them and probably Hunters. Herta sealed one. Is it a common ability if Herta brags about it in "Herta's Manuscripts"? So those Stellarons could've been active and so corrupting those worlds anyway.
So yeah, for now, compared to the IPC, Hunters aren't that bad. If something beg happens later, I'll change my mind. But there's a high probability the IPC will do something much worse trough the course of the story.
Comparing anyone to the IPC makes them look like a saint…
@@isaacPc9 ah damn it, I wrote a huge reply from smartphone but looks like it somehow didn't appear what the hell YT??? Anyway, briefly speaking, for now and, as I said, compared to the IPC they're alright. In Jepella Rebellion trailer Kafka pleaded guilty of all listed crimes, yeah, but there was always a "but" (though we don't know if those "buts" were true or she just mocked poor guys who tired to sentence her), so it seemed like Hunters didn't just went there and caused calamity upon peaceful people, also we don't know anything about those Stellarons they acquired during their crimes. Were they active? Were they sealed? We know that The Nameless can seal Stellarons, Hunters probably too. IIRC, the only known being who managed to seal a Stellaron was Herta (see "Herta's Manuscript") and she brags about it as it's something huge. So those Stellarons were probably destined to bring disaster to the worlds they were on anyway.
Compared to the IPC who:
- destroyed 12 inhabitated planets with Chadwick's bomb to stop AM Legion instead of sending their troops because "it's fast and efficient";
- slaughtered Boothill's (home?) planet inhabitants to get their resources;
- caused catastrophic events on that planet where locals refused to let the IPC mine ore because in those caves deep underground ifrits lived and they thought to be gods by those locals. In the result, locals are all dead and mining goes as planned.
And many more. So... yeah, at this point in the game, with our current knowledge and compared to the IPC, they're not anti-heroes, they're seem to be doing much more valuable things than the IPC in its current state (yeah, the IPC done many good things previously, no doubt).
@@snackeetah2627better than the IPC ≠ completely good
Curious that you did not point out that the 3rd female character we can mostly see on Kafka's art wearing knee socks and a gray suit is probably Firefly. We see her wearing something like that during her car ride with Blade.
If Elio is indeed a cat, we can literally see every member on that art.
I wonder how Elio's script works since SAM tried to deviate to test her free will but the script couldn't be avoided. But on the Xianzhou Luofu, Kafka gave us the option of not going but we would loop back around eventually and the Star rail would be contaminated. Like if we actually had the choice of not going than would that classify as going against the script. The script seems to be absolute on the immediate future but not the distant.
I was under the impression that we are one of the few who can change the script, kinda like how Aven said we have the ability to change the outcome of the game
I'd argue that the main inspiration for Firefly/SAM is not Samus but Sam Gideon from Vanquish.
Both power armors are very lookalike and both have some kind of "heat" mechanic. While Sam Gideon from Vanquish do prefer using rifles, he also has a melee attack which instantaneously overheats his armor.
Yeah that could be too and definitely dont mean it to be a negative thing either that she took inspiration just thought it was funny cause I played metorid growing up haha
Very well put together vid, 👍
There's more than 5 umbrellas pictured, and an extra pair of feet. So.... 7 stellaron hunters?
Foresight ? Thats basically terminus whispers
For firefly she mostly a tokusatsu resfrence from her skill be a rider kick to her technique that like a ultraman rising pose and hoyoverse they are also a tokusatsu from Kiana herrscher finality ultimate animation
I hope if elio becomes playable he's just a cat on some dudes shoulder and not a humanoid
Shit you are right 😂 i thoght she was a gundam 😂 but omg samus makes so mich sense 😂
Ah so Sam's home planet is basically the fall of the Roman Empire: Honkai Edition?
More like the orokin empire
@@Apt23-v8u warframe reference?
Yep
@@Apt23-v8u gave me a nice laugh. Definitely going to get on and dust off ye Olde Saryn Prime
These are great would like to see one on the duke infernos kids
I'm interested in the Glamoth empire and Titania. I hope they expand on this more, or better yet make this the main focus of the 3.0 or 4.0 storyline.
They never existed. Titania was a construct that thought it was an Empress and had an Empire, to allow it to telepathicly control the Fireflies and made them fight because they were brainwashed to believe they had an Empress and Empire to defend.
Haha goated intro walter white knows silver wilf about to empty his bank account 😂😂
SAM is more inspired by the entire mecha genre and/or the Evangelion series rather than Metroid per se, as the source of inspiration for the Honkai series as a whole as elaborated by the founders themselves back in 2010 ish. But the rest of the video is a good breakdown / hypothesis
Still believe SAM draws more inspiration from Evangelion. Especially the suits, being plugsuits from the eva franchise.
Tbh it's more like Claymore
Warframe as hell
Well that's is true Fire Fly woke me up yesterday morning with 10 gold tickets and Fire Fly surprised me with those 10 gold tickets wanting her own life and adventure. My game play wasn't normal at the moment I got Fire Fly. I got a Rainbow ticket when Fire Fly came home. How many times do I have to say Friends come in many ways. I am really excited to celebrate the end to the dream planet with Fire Fly coming home Yesterday morning at 5:27am. Good bye HSR COMMUNITY.
Sunday makes more sense for anyone joining the SH lol
My favorite is silver wolf & firefly
It’s confirmed that elio is related to the finality
I had theory the reason why Elio is cat is because cats have nine lives. Rather than seeing the future, it’s more like he experience 8 different timelines where universe failed to prevent Nanook from destroying the universe. Elio is a regressor rather than a seer. Which is why the script isn’t perfect and can be changed.
Adopted and raised in a restaurent in a cyberpunk world ....
Bet her mom is called cioara 🎉😅
Does anyone else think that the iron cavalry were artificially created similar to how trailblazer was?
I wonder if sparkle is a stellaron hunter. Her interference in penacony is prominent in affecting and changing the courses of characters.
Being a member of the masked fools, i highly doubt she is with them but might be working alongside Elio, i still have no idea how she knew everything about Penacony while every other character where scrambling around trying to discover the truth.
And honestly i feel like her existence is too much of a variable that she could have messed up some of Elio's foresight and prior script to his members
Feel sad for general jing yuan the only person of the group still left 😞
aint sunday confirmed to join the stelaron hunters when he becomes playable?
"Eel-leo"
Ello
The wrong pronunciation was distracting me from the whole video 😔
