Acheron deserves props here. Aventurine's plan is very smart obviously, but the fact that she understands what he's doing when he says "I know you'll match my wager" and then she chooses to draw her blade is proof that she's just as intelligent because she realized his gamble and helped him win it without him even having to explain it first. Getting to see her full power and burst in a cinematic form is also super cool
For those wondering, yeah Aventurine lived but from my understanding, he found his real path to be Nihility? The creator of this video cut an EXTREMELY important conversation between Aventurine and Acheron before that little cutscene at the end. Acheron said she cleared the Harmony curse off Aventurine so he won’t die. He will be dwelling in the Abyss of Nihility until he comes back. Though this means Aventurine will be absent from events, atleast he’ll come back some day. “Your gamble is far from over. Go back now.” -Acheron In the last cutscene he was saying goodbye to his past but the cut context just makes it looks like Aven died lmfao.
Also you what Dr. Ratio gave Aventurine the thingy popped out in some of the dialogues with Ratio saying he wants aventurine to live so aventurine never dies I suppose.
IKR SOME1 FINALLY GETS IT. Ive been going over in twt, fb, hell hoyolab, and even here, somehow they r just straight up killing him off, do they not read the dialogues? He talked abt his family, and how he will reach to them someday but not now. Thats obvious he aint dying since his family is dead. Acheron literally wishes him good luck for his next goals and that he's going in the abyss, if he comes back alive is another one of his gambles. Idk why ppl r missing it out.
@@superbrightshinystuff3425 TLDR (spoilers for 2.1 ahead): Aventurine tried to negotiate with Sunday, Aventurine failed and so Sunday put a curse on him which is basically a ticking time bomb, now Aventurine has 17 system hours left to live, Aventurine makes a plan, Acheron uses her Emanator powers to remove the curse from Aventurine

Nope. Too early. There are other game arcs from different Honkai games that peaked more than the incomplete story of Penacony yet. The Elysian Realm arc still rules better than Penacony. Both arcs are envisioned by Shaoji as well. Not including FIREMOTH arc of Honkai Gakuen either.

We will see if it truly will in the future.

As Caelus was about to challenge Aventurine on a one-on-one battle, Acheron asked him if losing the fight was a possibility. “Well if he opened his domain, forced gambling, it might cause me a little trouble.” “But would you lose?” “Nah It’s all or nothing” Before Caelus was able to unleash a barrage of strikes with his club, Aventurine opened his domain, where the chosen character had to score a higher number or an equal number of points,as the minimum points by hitting more targets. Luckily for Caelus, he learnt how to use his area-of-effect technique, Homing Homerun, which allowed him to strike more targets and allowed him to score more points than the minimum, nullifying the domain. After a long fought battle, Caelus emerged victorious and Aventurine was sent to the shadow realm. In the shadow realm, Acheron asked him “Did you lose because you were confident? Or were you confident that you lost?” Aventurine replied “When it comes to gambling, I always leave my opponents mumbling. And throughout the dreamscape and reality, lies and truths, I alone am the Auspicious one.”

@@jakeblitzcoffie4859And where is it shown that Welt is stronger then acheron? This is literally headcanon lmao. Welt in hi3 was one of the weakest herrscher and now he is even more nerfed in star rail because of the events in hi3. We see him losing clearly against Phantilya even with the help of Jing Yuan with lighting lord which is confirmed to be a gift from lan and Imbibitor lunae who is an op sorcerer and he still struggled here. And before you bring his "gravitational disintegration" to acheron it was just him showing how far he is going to go not actually a threat lmao. Acheron was literally unfazed by welts power, hell the entire plot here was that only acheron can beat aventurine who is an extremely weakened emanator here.
he’s most likely not. black swan said you can’t die in penacony, and aventurine himself implied he tried to off himself multiple times to see if he could die in penacony, but is still alive. my personal theory is that he planned all of this, and would use his “death” as a mean to escape the ipc, considering his past with them
@@hakaze6269 He isn't in penacony while within the black hole, he has potential to still actually die due to Acheron sending him there (He wont) I mean, the whole 1 on 1 conversation they have shes basically implying he could die there.
@@sleebeeshe could, aventurine's taking a gamble to see if he comes back alive or not, but Acheron did say that his time/gamble isnt over yet, so I dont think he'll die
I'm happy they still referenced HI3 in this. and for those who don't know what I mean, Look during that ONE specific cutscene; Those two red-horns are similar to a Specific Herrscher from HI3 and if you know which one, Props to you. Others? Go play the original HI3, You'll get it.
I was still grinding for Acheron's talents so I didn't use her for this fight but after rage quitting the first time, I said "YOU KNOW WHAT!" and level up her talents with what I had and that help me beat him. Okay Acheron wait in the bench again so I can level up your talents all at once
bro this boss fight gave me MAJOR grandmaster boss fight flashbacks from MCOC, hard to get your head around the mechanics but fun if you know what to do. but painful nonetheless.
Welt is massively nerfed in star rail and he wasn't even one of the strongest in hi3. His power is really overrated among the fans. Aventurines entire gamble here was for Acheron because only she could defeat him and mind you this is an extremely weakened aventurine.
^ The star of Eden is still powerful. However his power is heavily nerf as the Core of reason no longer has steam while it does have some. It can't be the same. It is possible in later of the story. Welt giving it to someone and created it as a Divine key. Similar to Void archive (Previous era core of reason's Core) As Welt stated. Star of Eden (Or his cane) is able to use Black hole meaning that, Welt's Star of Eden is still as powerful. Ngl this is just a off topic. I wonder what type of Path Welt uses if he has the Core of reason? Erudition or Perseverance?
@@rubiepie It's powerful don't get me wrong but welt literally cannot use it to it's full power without killing him. He couldn't do it in hi3 and he definitely cannot now unless he kills himself in the process.
I am confused whether Adventurine is dead or not, it was stated in their conversation, that no one truly dies in dreamscape, but then it was mentioned that his stone has stopped glowing, and Topaz, implying that he is dead? Whiich is it???
Acheron sent Adventurine into a limbo, not dead or alive. She was able to sever the harmony's grasp on him, but now it's up to Adventurine if he can make it out

Prime Welt has potential abilities to destroy the Solar System meanwhile one of the Lord Ravager (Destruction Emanator) has been recorded to destroy one of the Galaxies which is far more diverse and larger in comparison. Why so many ppl set up Welt so much in EN community, I clearly don't get it lol.
@@TheMentallyTiredHe is nowhere near acheron. He wasn't even one of the strongest herrscher in hi3 and he is heavily nerfed here in star rail on top of that. We see him struggle against Phantilya with the help of Jing yuan and imbibitor lunae no way he is even onpar with acheron lmao. And before you say his threating acheron with gravitation disintegration it wasn't a threat, it was just him showing he is willing to go far to protect the astral express. Acheron is literally unfazed to welts power.
IT'S ALL OR NOTHING 🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥💯‼‼‼ As an aside, what really got me was that that massive rain of chips that forced Acheron to act was the power of a *weakened* Ten Stoneheart. Aventurine's Cornerstone was crushed and wasn't going at full power. Makes you wonder just how strong the Ten Stonehearts actually are.
Don't underestimated Himeko, she is the captain commander of Trailblazee.. she have some power.. and maybe she is long lived which is emanator of trailblazer..
Fun fact: if you go back to the place you fight Aventurine, there still Acheron's red slash in the sky and through the big screen
damn that says a lot about her power

The sword wave as well 😆

I mean Alpha did it first but Acheron is cooler

my baby aventurine 😭😭💔 he deserves all the love in the world and the warmest hugs🥹🩷
Ayyoo...he is alive..he aint dead
gotta love that Aventurine and the Watchmaker had the same hat flourish.
I honestly really feel bad and sad for Aventurine
so this is the person boothill is trying to kill? Uhhh good luck.
Galaxy Rangers did kill some Emanators tho
He doesn't have to kill her Acheron is a self-annihilation she either going to die alone thinking the world is meaningless or find the doctor of chaos to cure her
@@TheMentallyTired No. She's one of a few Self-Annihilators who could resist the effect of Nihility.
>As for the few who can single-handedly withstand the encroachment of Nihility on their existences, their journey of self-annihilation is drawn out to infinity, and the road they walk is like a shadow of IX cast in the world.
good luck in killing mihoyo beloved child if you ain't Kiana(WoH)@@BiBiren
@@TheMentallyTired Nope, actually Acheron is op than u think.
Dr. Primitive, No. #64 of the Genius Society, once asked before his disappearance: If IX is truly unresponsive to the universe, how could the Path of Nihility exist to this day? Perhaps, as the Self- Annihilators aimlessly traverse the cosmos, they are also casting the shadow of the Aeon around the universe. As for the few who can single-handedly withstand the encroachment of Nihility on their existences, their journey of self-annihilation is drawn out to infinity, and the road they walk is like a shadow of IX cast in the world
This is the first version that I finished in the first day, and I am still speechless. I was expecting to continue my utter hate for Aventurine since 2.0, but then that Ayato wannabe showed up and I didn't expect him to be that much of a jerk. And then Aventurine slowly became one of my favourite characters, he actually reminded me a lot of my own character, so that's some bonus points for him
Penacony is the peakest of fictions
The ammount of hate aventurine got in 2.0 just for existsting was crazy.Shame on you
Crazy to think Aventurine is using a fractured cornerstone

Stoneheart Aventurine Follows destruction and Preservation i like to believe
And from now on Kakavasha will tread the path of the Nihility
First time i got emotional in HSR and really attached to a charcter , Aventurine is perfrct
Aventurine will come back stronger 😢😢

ACHERON like Alpha lol
No my friend she is atomic😂
@@zerox23454Alpha from pgr bro, not the anime
I got an ad dedicated to Aventurines chibi before this lol
"Stand proud Aventurine, you are strong"
It’s collectively agreed: this boss was more ANNOYING than Sunday Aeon revival attempt.
My head jamming the whole boss battle bcs the music is so catchy lmao
My phone went a hard crash daring that scene 💀💀
friendship withs*nday, dr r*tio, and archeron (temporarily for the queen herself), companionship with aventurine and sparkle has commenced
Dont know why you need to censor their names lol
Why bother censoring the names?
@@itsj0hnnypr its just like-- a thing i thought of because censoring something is sorta like a curse so i made it like censoring their names because im very mad
Its so sad that Aventurine lost his zest in the end
im actually starting to get mad im stuck on aventurines boss fight because he keeps one shotting my characters
update: i beat him with seele after they nerfed the boss fight
Maybe use a shield if you have March 7th or Gepard
same bro, a had natasha and gepard but still lost💀
I used Silverwolf,Lynx,Ruan Mei and Fu Xuan (not very F2P friendly ik T-T)
@@lynnidx My only dps is seele… i keep loosing my 50/50 to supports and idk why but i pulled for blackswan nlt realizing shed be useless because i dont have good characters to go with her. i got to second phaze on my recent attempt but i ended up getting one shotted
@@masureiiiii i used bailu and she kept them alive for a good while until the second phaze…
At first I didn't like Aventurine personality. But after this 2.1 story, I really want to pulling him, the first character I want to pull because of his life, his story, his quotes but not the design. His story really inpiring and inspire my life purpose, living my life to the fullest so that when I meet my parents again in heaven, they can be proud.
Everyone gangsta until acheron says "Domain expansion"
girl just said "damn you got a domain too? shit lemme summon mine!"
No it was more like Acheron saving him from getting no diff by welt
jingyuang : xD
@@Sky-8754lmao welt was about to ult on him and send him to quantum singularity

To everyone good luck for Archeron 😢💗
Jeez i do need the music theme on the cinematic where archeron slashes the sh1t out of his domain...
Aventurine just used Gate of Babylon. HSRxFate Collab confirmed.
Aged well
Bro's domain got 1 shotted
7:21 THIS PART SLAPPED THE HI3 DAYS OUT OF ME.
As Caelus was about to challenge Aventurine on a one-on-one battle, Acheron asked him if losing the fight was a possibility. “Well if he opened his domain, forced gambling, it might cause me a little trouble.” “But would you lose?” “Nah It’s all or nothing”
Before Caelus was able to unleash a barrage of strikes with his club, Aventurine opened his domain, where the chosen character had to score a higher number or an equal number of points,as the minimum points by hitting more targets. Luckily for Caelus, he learnt how to use his area-of-effect technique, Homing Homerun, which allowed him to strike more targets and allowed him to score more points than the minimum, nullifying the domain.
After a long fought battle, Caelus emerged victorious and Aventurine was sent to the shadow realm. In the shadow realm, Acheron asked him “Did you lose because you were confident? Or were you confident that you lost?” Aventurine replied “When it comes to gambling, I always leave my opponents mumbling. And throughout the dreamscape and reality, lies and truths, I alone am the Auspicious one.”
All these boss battles makes me regret so much not pulling fu xuan
Oh finally i managed to defeat him
kafka black swann gepard lynx
Mommy swann on her last breaths.. popped a dot to clutch
I'm managing just fine with Luocha.
I would manage fine too..if not for those irritating gamble mechanics in his fight@@jellythewomanconsumer1590
Gepard is doing wonders for me, charging her Ult so quickly
Bruh I easily solo sustained with bailu it was ez (I need aventurine now 😢😢😢😢)
I have 2 fully built Preservation units that isnt Fu Xuan and i have no difficulty with him
If one slash can do that much, imagine if Acheron went all out.
Damn bruh acheron really said “Dragon scales. Repulsion. Twin meteors.”
Acheron is the character when punishing gray raven and genshin impact collab
Nobody talks about Welt about to use the Blackhole
Cause they too focus with Acheron and Aventurine
Aventurine got plot armour to show his new power
If Acheron / welt srs in first place, there's no boss fight for us
Bro was about to nuke the planet.😂 I'm glad Acheron stepped in first. 😅
Acheron is far stronger than Welt, but Welt power can make a planet destroyed so he is so dangerous..
@@manoharalisa5829 Nah. Welt's a bit stronger than her. The only threats to Welt in HSR are the stronger Lord Ravagers and the Aeons.
@@jakeblitzcoffie4859And where is it shown that Welt is stronger then acheron? This is literally headcanon lmao.
Welt in hi3 was one of the weakest herrscher and now he is even more nerfed in star rail because of the events in hi3. We see him losing clearly against Phantilya even with the help of Jing Yuan with lighting lord which is confirmed to be a gift from lan and Imbibitor lunae who is an op sorcerer and he still struggled here. And before you bring his "gravitational disintegration" to acheron it was just him showing how far he is going to go not actually a threat lmao. Acheron was literally unfazed by welts power, hell the entire plot here was that only acheron can beat aventurine who is an extremely weakened emanator here.
Aventurine made me sob :(
Aventurine tried using the domain expansion: idle death gamble, then Acheron hit him with cleave.
Please tell me hes not dead please i cant handle it 😢
he’s most likely not. black swan said you can’t die in penacony, and aventurine himself implied he tried to off himself multiple times to see if he could die in penacony, but is still alive.
my personal theory is that he planned all of this, and would use his “death” as a mean to escape the ipc, considering his past with them
he nearly "died" (don't go too near to IX the Nihilty everyone) but Ratio gave him something that can revive him/wake him up
@@hakaze6269 He isn't in penacony while within the black hole, he has potential to still actually die due to Acheron sending him there (He wont) I mean, the whole 1 on 1 conversation they have shes basically implying he could die there.
Nahhh, he isn’t dead. He just wandering in the abyss. Considering he’s now choosing path of nihility, we may get his new version when he comes back.
@@sleebeeshe could, aventurine's taking a gamble to see if he comes back alive or not, but Acheron did say that his time/gamble isnt over yet, so I dont think he'll die
If aventurine who just borrow An emanator power but Can Fight with whole expresses and Acheron
How the F Diamond who have all stone power💀
Thanos intensifies
aventurines cornerstone was also broken, he shattered it beforehand, making it even weaker
Emanators are just a different breed man. Every single Destruction Emanator has the power to destroy galaxies.
Acheron killed him using one single slash and changed his path like it was nothing.
That wasn't a "fight"
Acheron wasn't fighting him tho. When she decided to do so, you can see that she straight up sent him to the shadow realm
Bro gambled his own life ro prove a point 💀💀💀
"Scales of the Dragon, Recoil, Twin Meteors..."
Welt was about to cook a big meal then Acheron took his spotlight 😭
Not sure did anyone noticed but welt was most likely gonna use his herscher powers if Archeron didn't step up.
Acheron : GETSUGA TENSHOU 👺
acheron: stand proud kakashava your are strong

2.1 story quest really blow your mind not gonna lie ! The Ending when Gallagher actually is the Villain give me spine chills 👏👏👏
A reminder we almost fought topaz whom also one of the ten stonehearts like aventurine
Bro somehow Im getting nostalgic vibes from the one shenhe quest when Acheron was doing her slash
Acheron with a single basic attack almost killed Aventurine. What will happen if she try a little bit harder?
Waiting for "Jade" character to be playable
Are you kakavasha because you’re blessed by the giathra tryclops, or were you blessed by the giathra tryclops because youre kakavasha?
I'm happy they still referenced HI3 in this.
and for those who don't know what I mean, Look during that ONE specific cutscene; Those two red-horns are similar to a Specific Herrscher from HI3 and if you know which one, Props to you.
Others? Go play the original HI3, You'll get it.
The boss fight is so hard without new characters bro🥲
8:13 This part is so wholesome 🥹🥹🥹
A história do aventurine me fez triste e o final me deixou mais triste
I was still grinding for Acheron's talents so I didn't use her for this fight but after rage quitting the first time, I said "YOU KNOW WHAT!" and level up her talents with what I had and that help me beat him.
Okay Acheron wait in the bench again so I can level up your talents all at once
bro this boss fight gave me MAJOR grandmaster boss fight flashbacks from MCOC, hard to get your head around the mechanics but fun if you know what to do. but painful nonetheless.
Aventurine: Domain Expansion
Acheron: Yami Mahō "Yamimatoi: Jigengiri
Imagine if Acheron didn't stop Aventurine and Welt straight up unleashed a black hole without him holding back,would Aventurine be like idk alive?
Welt is massively nerfed in star rail and he wasn't even one of the strongest in hi3. His power is really overrated among the fans.
Aventurines entire gamble here was for Acheron because only she could defeat him and mind you this is an extremely weakened aventurine.
^ The star of Eden is still powerful.
However his power is heavily nerf as the Core of reason no longer has steam while it does have some. It can't be the same. It is possible in later of the story. Welt giving it to someone and created it as a Divine key. Similar to Void archive (Previous era core of reason's Core)
As Welt stated. Star of Eden (Or his cane) is able to use Black hole meaning that, Welt's Star of Eden is still as powerful.
Ngl this is just a off topic. I wonder what type of Path Welt uses if he has the Core of reason? Erudition or Perseverance?
@@rubiepie It's powerful don't get me wrong but welt literally cannot use it to it's full power without killing him. He couldn't do it in hi3 and he definitely cannot now unless he kills himself in the process.
I am confused whether Adventurine is dead or not, it was stated in their conversation, that no one truly dies in dreamscape, but then it was mentioned that his stone has stopped glowing, and Topaz, implying that he is dead? Whiich is it???
Acheron sent Adventurine into a limbo, not dead or alive. She was able to sever the harmony's grasp on him, but now it's up to Adventurine if he can make it out
Unfortunately, I didn’t have Lore-Accurate team, was missing both Himeko and Acheron
aventurine on his 2nd phase ready to cast Big Spender ult on my team
my sushang with extra turn, luocha, acheron, and march (all with aoe skill on standby): DO IT I DOUBLE DARE YOU ROLL THE DAMN DICE ONE MORE TIME U WILL REGRET THIS
After the 5th attempt i just decided to go double healer keep team top at all times while mc and jinglu did there thing and happy firefly is alive but i was also hoping we get sam as his own character but oh well
I can't get my head out of this cutscenes.
Was the ending implying that the trailblazer is the Watchmaker's legacy
Aventurine Won.
Amazing that he planned all this to happen
3 cornerstones wont even be able to help him survive that slash in the first place, he won only cause acheron is there to grant him his wish.
@@kazeman6335 do you realise both of your statements are in a way contradicting
it is what it is@@Cocxy69
@@kazeman6335 not really
The stone of himself alread weaken because broken and it still can make the slash struggle a little bit to broke the domain
If he able to use 3 stone, there is a chance he can block it or weaken it to survive ( at least one time )
despite how tanky af aventurine is i managed to beat his ass with kafka, serval, gepard, and huo huo somehow 🤟
Can we just talk about how OP welt is still? Bro paused Aventurine attacks like it was nothing
He is on par with Acheron or stronger I believe though his ability is not that of his prime it is still very powerful
Prime Welt has potential abilities to destroy the Solar System meanwhile one of the Lord Ravager (Destruction Emanator) has been recorded to destroy one of the Galaxies which is far more diverse and larger in comparison.
Why so many ppl set up Welt so much in EN community, I clearly don't get it lol.
@@TheMentallyTiredHe is nowhere near acheron. He wasn't even one of the strongest herrscher in hi3 and he is heavily nerfed here in star rail on top of that. We see him struggle against Phantilya with the help of Jing yuan and imbibitor lunae no way he is even onpar with acheron lmao.
And before you say his threating acheron with gravitation disintegration it wasn't a threat, it was just him showing he is willing to go far to protect the astral express. Acheron is literally unfazed to welts power.
@@wflover-kl6oh Looks like someone haven't read and hear Acheron's bio
@@TheMentallyTired ? Acherons bio literally says nothing about welt😭 idk why you even brought that up lmao.
IT'S ALL OR NOTHING 🗣🗣🗣🔥🔥🔥💯‼‼‼
As an aside, what really got me was that that massive rain of chips that forced Acheron to act was the power of a *weakened* Ten Stoneheart. Aventurine's Cornerstone was crushed and wasn't going at full power. Makes you wonder just how strong the Ten Stonehearts actually are.
