I love that Estinien is forced to play that role, due to how the party now works. While extremely powerful individuals, all Scions are adventurers at heart, meaning their base is "to adventure, for fun!" And they are forced to play it straight while oficially on bussiness. So when you see the antics happening, it's quite some shift. He keeps to what Scions are on the outside.
Have you seen his reactions to situations? He is 100% a jock who secretly does drama on the side and accidentally started hanging out with them more than the other jocks.
Love the reaction Estinien: she's possessed Nidhana: So cute Varshann/Vrtra:...........what? Your choice: 1) nothing out of ordinary, carry on 2) better tease her 3) WTH
I love that we have been getting more funny moments now that the universe and all of existence isn't at stake. I hope they keep the "fun adventure" vibe going for a bit before introducing the next big story.
@@Vennnaya It still feels pretty lighthearted to me. Teaching a voidsent hybrid about friendship and life in our world while helping her save her own? It all seems like a grand new adventure. There's only really one part that isn't lighthearted and that's the storyline with Vrtra's sister.
Watching your character just gape in horror is hilarious. Kills any number of gods, yandere “best friend” tracks you across the universe, defeats the incarnation of despair and entropy itself, but THIS is what scares you! It somehow embarrasses her more than you rolling with it and teasing her.
@@SentientHoodii yeah like used in Cinderella by Fairy Godmother. Also sorry my first language isn’t English so I wrote what it sounded like in Japanese.
I love the detail of Y'shtola clenching her fists after seeing her nixies. They're innocents and a link to her childhood, and it's nice to see that she hurts, knowing what she will be doing to them.
I agree with the embarrassed part there, the animators did an amazing job here in showing her total awkwardness. But it's also a brilliant character story moment : the nixies say "Water water, froth and foam, time to play!" which kinda hints that Y'shtola, the genius sorceress, was so lonely as a child prodigy that she had to conjure up some playmates herself. She knows that well and she hates showing her vulnerable past self to her friends. The writing is, like always, top tier.
Estinien: "Surely you'd not expect me to wriggle through that tiny portal?" This WoL: "You had no problem wriggling through my tiny portal last night..."
That threat to shrink the WOL down... Y'Shtola DID say some while ago "we will speak later". She never said who would be doing the speaking and what would be spoken!
I don't think anyone will ever replace Y'shtola as best gal. I love the way she reacts in a few instances throughout the game where you get to playfully taunt her.
i want there to be a scene in a later patch that calls back to this Thancred: ah, y'shtola, estinien! good to see you two again, i heard of your recent exploits... so y'shtola... *y'shtola looks at him* "froth and foam?" *silence* Y'shtola: *slowly and menacingly turning to you and estinien* which of you two spoke of it...? Wol: *looking scared* What will you say? "first time i've seen thancred since then" "i... think i overheard estinien talking to thancred earlier..." "It wasn't me i swear to the twelve and kami and hydaelyn herself it wasn't me!" or we get an option to talk about it to them while y'shtola's in the background, and if we do she immediately makes a full sprint toward us pulling her staff out, big swing cut to black and we're on the floor as she's walking away with a satisfied smirk
I like how Y'shtola, the fireball slinging master of magic feared by all, is embarrassed about what her friends think of this lmao. She's like an awkward teenager trying to explain her childhood toys to her friend group
Well she was like 10 when she first performed the spell. So yes, pitch is important for the incantation to work properly. Hmm yes. That's it. That's the reason.
@@UCEZe5ozeYkF5VJSX2GLfUjA Bingo lol. Bonus round: She also voiced Sera in Dragon Age: Inquisition. So if you want to hear Y'shtola swear like a sailor and dial up the cockney to 11 then there you go lol.
I got EW together with DT, so I was late to the experience but one gem people might overlook is if you talk to Estinien after this cutscene, he will say "I struggle to picture Y'shtola as a little girl. Easier to believe she sprang fully formed from one of Master Matoya's cauldrons." -I totally believe that-
Y'shtola and Alphinaud even have an interaction after killing the nixie if you bring them. Can't remember the exact dialogue but it's something along the lines of: Y'shtola: "It's good to have some closure after all these years." Alphinaud: "Then it was you who created that familiar?!"
I think the idea is they want to check if the warding scales could protect from the corruption of void. So they sent in two nixies: one with a scale and one without. And the one with the scale was unaffected by the corruption

This whole Expansion Estinien has been killing me. His straight man was exactly what the group was missing.
The best part is that he's a straight man who rolls with the silliness with a wry grin.
I love that Estinien is forced to play that role, due to how the party now works. While extremely powerful individuals, all Scions are adventurers at heart, meaning their base is "to adventure, for fun!" And they are forced to play it straight while oficially on bussiness. So when you see the antics happening, it's quite some shift. He keeps to what Scions are on the outside.
Estinien was ten seconds away from setting up a pyre to burn the witch.
The only time he will engage in the old timey Ishgardian tradition of heretic burning.
That Nidhogg PTSD is real.
WITCHCRAFT, HERESY AND MUTATION!
@@nalrashido wrong universe XD
@@Neobahamutfr36 Why Inquisitor, this catmutant over there!!
I describe Estinien as the jock who accidently fell in with the theater nerd kids
Have you seen his reactions to situations? He is 100% a jock who secretly does drama on the side and accidentally started hanging out with them more than the other jocks.
This went from Arcane Goddess to Magical Catgirl way too fast.
And i loved every second.
Vrtra was so stunned he just disconnected from the simulacrum body
It would have been amazing if they did a shot of his real body with its mouth open in shock also.
He had the mic on mute and had to turn off camera on his VTuber skin to laugh it off
Dude DCd from reality
"Ready your arms. I fear she's been possessed..." killed me lmao
1:36 She didn't have to do that little wink, but she did it anyway to be as authentic as possible. And I love her for that.
Nothing can convince me the WoL didn't *immediately* teleport to Slitherbough to tell this to Runar
Runar then immediately was even more infatuated with her guaranteed.
@@khaeldranis2564 without a doubt. Runar is best boi like that
in my HC my WoL ABSOLUTELY told Thancred lol
@@VelvetCake423 That goes without saying, Thancred is like our brother and Shtola is our sister
My HC my WoL told everyone.
Love the reaction
Estinien: she's possessed
Nidhana: So cute
Varshann/Vrtra:...........what?
Your choice:
1) nothing out of ordinary, carry on
2) better tease her
3) WTH
1. Is the closest to a true answer.
@@lanceknightmareno,2 is the best option. FROTH AND FOAM! 😂😂
@@Spartan135 Why not all three? Memes like dreams can be so deliciously diverse.
WoL totally be taking mental screenshots throughout this sequence
Downloading her moves for the inevitable Yshtola (Extreme)
I love that we have been getting more funny moments now that the universe and all of existence isn't at stake. I hope they keep the "fun adventure" vibe going for a bit before introducing the next big story.
Well so much for that. 6.2 Kinda backstabbed that idea. So much for lighthearted adventure.
@@Vennnaya It still feels pretty lighthearted to me. Teaching a voidsent hybrid about friendship and life in our world while helping her save her own? It all seems like a grand new adventure. There's only really one part that isn't lighthearted and that's the storyline with Vrtra's sister.
See also: a certain volleyball game with explosives. When the WOL finally gives in and embraces the insanity...
It's not often that Y'shtola is in the silly corner but it's hilarious when she is. I think I was stuck between amusement and disbelief.
Going silent is my favourite response, just seeing yshtola trying to justify all this is funny
Watching your character just gape in horror is hilarious. Kills any number of gods, yandere “best friend” tracks you across the universe, defeats the incarnation of despair and entropy itself, but THIS is what scares you!
It somehow embarrasses her more than you rolling with it and teasing her.
Meanwhile I'm just wishing the three fuzzy ear player races had that much control of ears for emoting.
That zoom in on varshaan. Bruh. He disconnected
Fun fact: the Japanese one for Yshtola’s magic line is “tururu! Bubbles! Bubbles!”
(“Tsururu is an onomatopoeia similar to “bibidibobidibo”)
do you mean Bippidi Boppidi Boo? because your spelling of it it majorly confusing.
@@SentientHoodii yeah like used in Cinderella by Fairy Godmother. Also sorry my first language isn’t English so I wrote what it sounded like in Japanese.
I love the unexpected humor Estinien adds to the crew bwahaha.
Yep, you can totally hear the Titania in her voice. Same VA.
I love the detail of Y'shtola clenching her fists after seeing her nixies. They're innocents and a link to her childhood, and it's nice to see that she hurts, knowing what she will be doing to them.
With the way her ears droop and she looks around, I took it as a sign of her being overwhelmingly embarrassed at doing that in front of other people.
@@theeternalshade2981 That was my initial thought, but seeing it again, she sure seems a bit saddened.
@@TheWickedWizardOfOz1 sacrificing her dignity definitely plays a part here
I agree with the embarrassed part there, the animators did an amazing job here in showing her total awkwardness. But it's also a brilliant character story moment : the nixies say "Water water, froth and foam, time to play!" which kinda hints that Y'shtola, the genius sorceress, was so lonely as a child prodigy that she had to conjure up some playmates herself.

One of the best cutscenes in the game hahaha. I've used the drippy minion ever since. Water, Water, Froth and Foam!
I've been farming it for a month, no luck :(
I like to think the (my) Warrior of Light likes to tease Y'shtola every chance they get and by this point it's become a game.
@@MrCrunchytime "at this point its a game. If he gives in i win." -Tien chenhan
@@ZeroOmega-vg8nq lol exactly, but in Y'shtola's case, it's about wits. If we fluster her, she loses. :P
@@MrCrunchytime A very dangerous game, hahaha.
Estinien: "Surely you'd not expect me to wriggle through that tiny portal?"
This WoL: "You had no problem wriggling through my tiny portal last night..."
Y'shtola: "Water, water, froth and foam!"
This WoL: "Y'shtola please don't share details of our steamy hot springs visits with our comrades."
Y'shtola: "I could shrink you down, you know."
This WoL: "Your childish incantation has already done that for me, thank you."
Wol: YO MATOY-
yshtola: you... Shut... Your... FUCKING mouth...
Wol: >_> nevermind
I love how she hated every second of it and the reaction had me bust out laughing
I don't think she needs to enchant the last line like a 10 year old magical girl, but it just makes her look super cute.
It would be more hillarious if she actually needs to do that, for the spell to work.
@@shizachan8421 It's kind of implied she is as part of the ritual. And that makes it great.
That threat to shrink the WOL down... Y'Shtola DID say some while ago "we will speak later". She never said who would be doing the speaking and what would be spoken!
I love how embarrassed she is after summoning the nixies
I don't think anyone will ever replace Y'shtola as best gal. I love the way she reacts in a few instances throughout the game where you get to playfully taunt her.
I dunno, Alisaie is quickly growing on me
@@Sovek86 really? Eww
But G’Raha is best girl…
2:02 the look on Varshahn's face.
"I could shrink you down, you know."
~~yes, please.~~
Magical cat girl emote when?
We genuinely need a /vomit emote to spam in Alzadaal's Legacy
I'd buy that for a dollar.
Magical cat girl outfit glam for Trusts when?
Varshahn in utter shock 😂😭
It's the look of absolute mortification (drooping ears etc) that kills me the most 😂😂
i want there to be a scene in a later patch that calls back to this
Thancred: ah, y'shtola, estinien! good to see you two again, i heard of your recent exploits... so y'shtola... *y'shtola looks at him* "froth and foam?"
*silence*
Y'shtola: *slowly and menacingly turning to you and estinien* which of you two spoke of it...?
Wol: *looking scared*
What will you say?
"first time i've seen thancred since then"
"i... think i overheard estinien talking to thancred earlier..."
"It wasn't me i swear to the twelve and kami and hydaelyn herself it wasn't me!"
or we get an option to talk about it to them while y'shtola's in the background, and if we do she immediately makes a full sprint toward us pulling her staff out, big swing cut to black and we're on the floor as she's walking away with a satisfied smirk
You keep trying to destroy her chill she's gonna get you for it.
Vrtra really looking at these people like “who in t actual f have i involved myself with”
You have no idea how I wanted to hold off from teasing Y'shtola with that XP Still the woman should learn to take a joke and laugh at herself XP
Is it just me or does Yshtola sound like she has a cold this expansion? Like circa 6.1? She sounds a lil stuffed up.
YES! Gods, I thought I was the only one to hear it. lol
@@charlesmoore3390 i feel validated. 🤭
I couldn’t stop noticing it and I thought I was losing my mind honestly
Thought I was going nuts, good to see it wasn’t just me.
“Ready your arms. I fear she’s been possessed….” I love Estinien here. 😅😂
There's got to be a verison of this meme where the WoL responds with the Mutahar Laugh right after she does her magical girl routine.
I went silent for 2 1/2 minutes after seeing this in-game.
And that's the dialogue I chose...
Y'SHTOLA WANTED TO BE A MAGICAL GIRL
I like how Y'shtola, the fireball slinging master of magic feared by all, is embarrassed about what her friends think of this lmao.
She's like an awkward teenager trying to explain her childhood toys to her friend group
She's been possessed!
The devs know what we want.
Cute sailor moon esk Y'shtola
Fanart?
Did your younger self tell you you had to have your voice go that high at the end o-o
YES SO MUCH YES SO VERY MUCH YES lol
Well she was like 10 when she first performed the spell. So yes, pitch is important for the incantation to work properly. Hmm yes. That's it. That's the reason.
If you pay attention to it you'll notice she almost went into the Titania voice, the voice actress voices both Titania and Y'shtola.
@@UCEZe5ozeYkF5VJSX2GLfUjA Bingo lol. Bonus round: She also voiced Sera in Dragon Age: Inquisition. So if you want to hear Y'shtola swear like a sailor and dial up the cockney to 11 then there you go lol.
@@smward87 I thought I recognized her voice from somewhere. Didn't think of Sera because, well, Sera is the furthest from Y'shtola as can be.
Somewhere between the reflections, there's a part of Y'shtola's fractured soul that's a literal magical girl.
Meanwhile, Estinien could just stick Nidhogg through the voidgate and wait for him to yell "YO IT FUCKING SUCKS HERE, MORTAL"
I got EW together with DT, so I was late to the experience
but one gem people might overlook is if you talk to Estinien after this cutscene, he will say
"I struggle to picture Y'shtola as a little girl. Easier to believe she sprang fully formed from one of Master Matoya's cauldrons."
-I totally believe that-
I have JP audio so she was quite literally magical girl. The children's anime type.
Now I can’t unhear Sera from DA:I.
Y'shtola had a UwU phase
Casualties: 1 Nixie, 1 Dignity
Y'shtola is a magical girl, confirmed
Can we have this spell for a future Summoner summon? I really want to do the chant :D
Btw these are the same familiar you see in matoyas relict with the ez water boss
Y'shtola and Alphinaud even have an interaction after killing the nixie if you bring them. Can't remember the exact dialogue but it's something along the lines of:
Y'shtola: "It's good to have some closure after all these years."
Alphinaud: "Then it was you who created that familiar?!"
WoL be trolling the entire 6.1 patch quests
We just saved the whole gods damn universe. We should be allowed to do almost anything non-life threatening that we want
I couldn't resist the urge to laugh.
man i'm so sad my pc is too bad for endwalker...only got to the main ending, not further
Love your AuRa
1:25 for the spell
My heart stopped.
purururu awawa!
There's some great rule34 stuff with her
Wait. If she can shrink person... Why we not went?
I think the idea is they want to check if the warding scales could protect from the corruption of void. So they sent in two nixies: one with a scale and one without. And the one with the scale was unaffected by the corruption
So uhh... SMN Y'shtola, when?
When she was a little girl living in Matoya's cave
MARRY ME MOMMYSHTOLA
Do British people really say 'foam' like they're pronouncing "fame?"
I prefer the japanases Kurururu alala
Not bad for english
