I feel so bad for Keaya, he lost both his biological and adoptive father, and in the process losing his closest friend; his brother. Family was like dust to his palm, he had it in his grasp for a moment, but he watched as it all crumbled through his hands, as it left him. I have always hoped Diluc and Keaya will once again unite as brothers, as best friends that both froliced in the flowing winds of mondstadt. They both have they're own pride, but if only they let it down, just for a moment. This animatic is breath taking and explains the emotions and the feeling of Keaya's long kept memories. :)

I feel like rationally he always wanted to fulfill his duty as a spy (which is why he felt relief when crepus died), but emotionally he doesn't want to betray the love he felt in Mondstadt. He went to Diluc for a solution, but Diluc couldn't give him one. Diluc fought him, but also didn't finish the fight. Then Diluc started distancing Kaeya but also kept his secret. Kaeya is getting mixed messages which is why he insistently tries to get Diluc's opinion. I think Diluc acts this way because he wants to show Kaeya that he doesn't approve of him being a spy, but also doesn't want to completely push him away. Therefore, I think right now the more love he feels in Mondstadt, the more pain he feels. Rationally he never wanted to betray Khaenriah, so the love he feels just puts more emotional stress onto him.

Ive been absolutely dying over Kaeya and Klees interactions throughout the Mirage event, so her being the one to lead him to the group of people who loves him in the final scene hit home even harder than it usually does when i come here for a rewatch of one of the best things to come out of the Gsneshin fanbase

Thank you so much ;,;; when I made this, I thought long and hard about who, how and why things are in regards to his character like Klee being the one being sent to fetch kaeya bc he just folds when it comes to her was one of the things (bc i thought if it was anyone else, he'd be more suspicious or will take things more seriously and klee would most like be the only one without that effect). This animatic was made so long ago for me and with every new event that shows a small glimpse of his character more, I get very happy when I hit the mark on some things and people see that and come back to this video. It wont always be correct but I'm glad I get close to it bc I really do love his character in all its nuances

This animatic made my heart warmer knowing the fact that from what I perceive it as in Diluc's event and in the Golden Archipelago one. They still love each other but each show it in their own way. Like how Diluc still remembers small facts about Kaeya, how he keeps gifts from him and never denying him the comfort of the Winery. How Kaeya would always talk about young Diluc as if reminiscing and implying that he missed those days. These two are just so wjdjejdj

For some reason seeing Adelinde and imagining her saying “Welcome, Young Master” was enough to almost break me and I don’t know _why_

this aged rlly well after the diluc event

The wordless beginning showed a contemplative Kaeya, looking down, and him sitting on his knees with his vision as a tear fell. It is faintly cold, and makes my heart ache. For this is Kaeya; he is a cold, traumatized person who is unsure of who he is. The beginning did well of showing that immediately, albeit implied, but when looking deeper... Kaeya's position as he stared down at the vision and cried said more than enough for me. At the start of the lyrics a small boy, Kaeya, wearing a cloak, is staring into his reflection on the water. And then he reaches into the water and holds it in his hands before letting it seep back down. This could symbolize a fair number of things, really. Maybe it is him reaching out to himself and looking for himself, only to let go. Maybe it is him getting a feel of the land, and pulling away despite not wanting to. Maybe it is a comfort. "I had a dream." Kaeya climbed a tree and, transfixed, looked down at Mondstadt. It was a peaceful city, and I can imagine little Keaya wanted very much to visit it. Then he turned back to the hooded figure, like he was reminded that he was not to go to Mondstadt city for it was not his home. He had no reason to, as he was Khaenri'ahn and had more important duties to fulfill. Just from the loss of sparkles in his eye, and how the next scene is of him leaving and following the hooded figure shows that. "Take me home. I can't take it anymore." He looked so sad here. He followed the person, put his hood up, and kept leaving Mondstadt behind, or trying to by him walking away from parts of it. When a part of the chorus played, Kaeya just looked down. That really hurt, because even at this age he knows what is expected of him as a Khaenri'ahn citizen, and yet he yearns so very much to not follow what is expected of him. Next is him meeting Diluc. He thought of the first time the other reached out, and then is brought to the present. Diluc coldly pushed a glass over, and Kaeya just downed the whole thing. It really pushed the "drowning your problems in alcohol" headcanon many have for him. The abyss mage scene.. He looked in his reflection after offing the mage in his sword, and it looked like his image changed. Maybe to that of the hooded figure? After all, the mages are old citizens. It.. hurts, to know he is offing his own people. Maybe he feels the disapproving gaze of that person even still. Maybe he feels that he /is/ part of that person, and that person was just the image of Khaenri'ah. His 'home'. He looked up to a star in the sky here. I wonder if he saw that very star often. The jumps in time create a very dramatic atmosphere, but it is fitting and not overwhelming. More nostalgic, almost. He ran in the past, and now he stands still. Is he sure of his place, or does he question here he stands? Has a small part of him given up? Then there is the scene of Diluc holding his father, and Kaeya standing nearby. ...Kaeya stands at a distance when the 'now' scene happens. Then he remembered the fight.. Diluc's almost disappointed, no, betrayed expression must be something Kaeya regrets ever having seen by his own doing. Diluc attacks Kaeya, who protects his face and then receives his cryo vision in a faint burst of a shield. And Diluc almost looked disgusted when he turned away. He was hurt, and that was shown well. Plus, we don't really see Kaeya for a couple seconds. Just him looking at Diluc as Kaeya backs away from the winery. An interesting detail. There is a quick collection of Kaeya's important memories. Little Kaeya, with that hooded figure holding his shoulder with black running up it. I wonder, is it from the abyss? Some sort of other power? Kaeya has something similar on his eye, although it could be passed as a shadow. And he is in rags, and looks very blank. I want to hold him and tell him it will be okay. He looks slightly happier as he talks with his new family.. Now with a bandage over his eye. And there is how Kaeya looked when Diluc had been upset with him, I imagine. A small, sad smile as he looked down with a clenched fist (holding his vision?) and marks over his face. I wonder how strong Kaeya is to watch his brother hate him, and try to ki// him, but still not cry as he turned away and left. As he stood alone, he smiled so sadly. Does he feel alone? Yes, perhaps he does after those he knew for so long were all gone. After all, Diluc will not look at him as his brother perhaps ever again. /That/ is a painful thought. And as a Khaenri'ahn, he still ran to the nearby statue of the seven and looked helplessly up at the carved image as he fell to his knees. The song spoke of 'nowhere else to go'. How fitting. Where does Kaeya go from here? That is what brought him to the statue, running before he fell to his knees. He remembered fond things from the past, and then his image came in front of the others around him as it returned to him by the statue. He really felt.. maybe still feels alone sometimes. He was torn between his homes. For who can chose between their homeland and the place that was really /home?/ Despite having looked helpless when he had first fallen in front of the statue, Kaeya really just looks defeated. Still not crying, just.. blank. Tired. I wonder how he felt then, about what Diluc had done. Did he wish for his d3ath by his brother? When he watched his past self and then reached out for his own shoulder, what did he wish to do? Comfort himself? Did he want to halt his past self's advance forward? Was he desperate and angry? And then he goes into the city, and finds himself appreciated and welcomed by many people. Those close to him, and those not. They all look at him with fondness. And the city is bathed in light, a glorious, happy place. The last scene is so heartwarming. It is so nice to see Kaeya surrounded by those who love him, and with his brother there as well, smiling at him.. You could tell Kaeya was overwhelmed, but he seemed happy. And so he found home, a "soft place to land". And I'm happy for him, and the fact that he figured out where his loyalties lie, even if that is in those he cares for rather than a place.

I think he got the vision cause Venti saw he needed love in his life, and somehow told him to not give up 😭🤧 I love Kaeya so much I really want him to have a good relationship in the end with Diluc. I think Diluc couldn't understand Kaeya's fears in the past, and he might be understanding him now, bc he still has the vase. But oh my god, everytime I remember Kaeya's past I just can't control my emotions. I love him so much 🤧

I love this little animatic and it gives a nice touch on the many interpretations of kaeya's backstory. I feel like not a lot of people actually take in and appreciate how tragic kaeya's life was. He is arguably one of the most developed characters in the entirety of Genshin Impact and has so much to him lorewise and imo is such a loveable character. Ive always been drawn to characters like this and kaeya is no exception. He's always hiding his past behind his cunning and charm and his humour, so that he can stat focused on those around him. I honestly never know to feel upset or happy. But alas, the comments section of your youtube video is not the place to rant and ramble about my obsession with kaeya...

it's ok, i feel the same qwq. i love kaeya as a character in the same way. he not only has really tragic lore and a heart-warming concept of found family but he also has good lore longevity possible to the story with him being a descendant of a regent family from khaenri'ah so he's already immensely more relevant than a lot of characters by a tier.

This song works so so well with him I'm crying 😭 The part where he's just breaking in front of the statue after the fight This is absolutely gorgeous 😭😭

I swear I was almost tearing up by the end Kaeya deserves all the happiness and we Travelers are here to provide! Once again happy birthday Kaeya *cheers* 🍾

as a Kaeya main I feel so happy whenever I see something about Kaeya's lore , and here you made a full video and every part of it just describes Kaeya perfectly! talk about real talent! best Kaeya video ever

Nobody pays enough attention to Kaeyas story. Thank you for this stunning animatic! It was absolutely beautiful! The effort, the details, absolutely magnificent!

I've rewatched this video so many times and every single time I end up crying, tis so good 😭😭

The pure reason why I main Kaeya and put him in my tea pot 24/7 is because this is the closest I can get to hugging him. Happy [late] Birthday

I've watched this so many times and I notice new details every time like how kaeyas sleeve is burned at the very start and that dilucs crying after kaeya gets his vision and leaves and I AM OBSESSED with this animatic it honestly tells kaeyas story so beautifully I've had this on loop for hours you are so talented bro the way dilucs smiling face when he meets kaeya mirrors him when kaeya tells him the truth I am foaming at the mouth at this it is incredible

This honestly made me sad, I felt with Kaeya because I went though similuar, but the end actually made me cry- and I felt happy that he actually found a place he calls "home" and "family". As a Kaeya main this is honestly beatiful- 💞❄

AND IN THE BEGINNING OF THE GAME WHEN AMBER TELL HIM THE TRAVELERS STORY AND HE WAS LIKE “I ALSO HAVE WENT THROUGH FAMILY ISSUES” I WANNA CRY 😭😭😭😭😭

Seriously can't get over how down right amazing this. You captured Kaeya's backstory perfectly. I love it. He is my second favorite character. (First Being Diluc) Honestly, ALL I want in 2022 is for Mihoyo to let these two brothers begin to heal. I want more backstory of their childhood. I want more information about Crepus adopting him. I just want these two brothers to heal.

THE PART WHERE HE TOOK A STEP IN MONDSTADT GAVE ME CHILLS OMG THIS IS SO AMAZING

came back to rewatch this in light of the recent diluc event and the new lore about him and kaeya's past, it still made me sob as much as the first time i watched it. so well made i love it sm

Every once in a while, I watch this and it just heals my soul in an indescribable way. The art, animation, choice of music and pacing are so immersive and beautiful to watch

I forgot how tragic kaeyas character was and you portrayed him perfectly😭 ur art is pretty asf and the way the background moves is so cool??? It all fits really nicely together+the music This man deserves everything tbh

this is beautiful all the details in the shots from 3:08 onwards are just asdfghjk amazing wtf

-how many times do you rewatch it? -yes I met this video every month I recommendations, and it is a real pleasure to rewatch it each time. Thank you

I haven’t played genshin impact, so all I remember this dude by is the fact that people started calling him Elsa for a bit.

The way I got goosebumps at 3:11 because it was so beautifully animated, I'm going insane over this. You portrayed Kaeya's backstory so artistically that I felt like I've seen everything play out in the game itself. The way you drew so many complicated backgrounds and perspectives had me rewatching those scenes again and again, and also Kaeya's sword movement at 1:40 was super accurate to the game. This is going straight to the favourites hhfhshdkj

Holy shit, can I say just how much I love how you drew Venti at 3:35. He looks adorable 😭

there hasn't been a day that i have not watched this ever since it got recommended to me... it's part of my routine now

HOLY SHEEESHES THIS IS A MASTERPIECE??? 😭😭 THE ANIMATION, THE COLORS, EVERYTHING IS JUST SO SMOOTH AND BEAUTIFUL, AND SO DETAILED!?? Everything looks so professional, I was just sitting and watching mesmerized, I swear if this doesn’t blow up, I’m going to eat my Paimon >:( I legit was searching not too long ago for a Genshin animatic with this song “Runaway” (so I could see if anybody else did it), because I started making mine with this song, but centered on Diluc and his journey through 7 nations, and now I see this?? I’m scared to dishonor this beautiful piece of art with mine😭❤️ And you did this in a freaking month?? That’s so fast, it’s soo amazing, thank you for doing this and blessing our eyes! :D

I can totally imagine this being paired to a diluc that's longing for home, i mostly just ended up with kaeya bc I'm biased asf over eyepatch man kcsbocbeof but yeah!

GOD THIS HURTS AND MAKES ME EMOTIONAL IN SO MANY DIFFERENT WAYS it’s beautiful !! You captured Kaeya’s backstory and the feelings he went through perfectly. The slamming down the glass shot and the Abyss mage shot hurt so much, I love it. The Barbatos statue… And the Mondstadt shots with everyone welcoming Kaeya… I nearly cried. The storytelling and cinematography here were excellent, too Absolutely amazing job on this oh my gosh

After this video, I fell like I needed to get back in genshin, and main Kaeya, wonderful animatic!

This is so so beautiful, with the help of the KZread algorithm, I watch it almost everyday. Thank you so much for blessing us with such a gorgeous animatic

I must admit I cried a little bit when I realized everyone got together for his birthday even tho Kaeya felt so Alone and I kinda empathize with that feeling- The Artstyle is ravishing, beautiful. The hole scenarios are marvelous and give such intense vibes- it’s one of the bests animatics I have ever seen so far, I’m sure you’ll grow so much more in the future and become someone even greater

This made me cry, i am sobbing so much right now. The pain Kaeya has been thorough and how its shaped his character. You displayed it all so beautifully

I've been overly stressed with school an seeing this animation, with this song just made me breakdown in pieces. Amazing work!!

every time i hear this song im like "yeah now this is a kaeya angst song" and bada bing bada boom i see this today thank you for reading my mind and creating this masterpiece

I don’t know the first thing about kaeya cuz I don’t play Genshin but omg I cant stop watching animatics abt him he’s such an interesting character😭 this was SO BEAUTIFUL !!!💗

Accidentally found this while searching abt kaeya... this is so good thooo !!! thanks for making me cry a river btw ;-; *MY BOII KAEYA DESERVE THE WHOLE WORLD I WANNA HUG HIM*

Oh my archons, this was absolutely thrilling to watch! The sadness, the FEELS, the whole story is portrayed so beautifully and full of emotions! The song and the scenes fit Kaeya so well, your depiction of him is stunning. Your art is also absolutely gorgeous! The animation is really smooth, too and it made it so pleasant to watch! Priceless work, thank you so much for this! And happy late birthday to Kaeya!

Everybody's profile pic is soo terrifying

It's this time of the year again! Happy birthday to Kaeya :')

First shot of Kaeya sets the tone immediately. It shows him with an empty face, clearly lost in thought. After a black screen, we see Kaeya again, holding his vision while in the rain with tattered clothes, telling you that, yeah, this isn’t a happy story. "I was listening to ocean" and "I see a face in the sand," while not being literal in the actual animatic, still holds weight with the dripping flower and Kaeya looking at a pool of water. His face disappears when he reaches out to feel the water and lets it drop, giving meaning to "I picked it up and it vanished away from my hands, down." Same with climbing the tree in the next shot, but "I saw a piece of heaven" as Kaeya overlooks Mondstadt is touching yet tragic, because it is his heaven. When we first see Kaeya, he is shown to be happy and enjoying life, but when he is with his father, it is obvious he isn’t happy, needing to constantly be on the move, barely able to have enough to eat with his gaunt face. Yet, he is still a child, something we are reminded of as he looks curiously upon the falling raindrops. It is only when his father leaves, his connection to Khaenri’ah leaves him, does he finally become happy after he is taken in and lives with Diluc. But before you think it gets better, we are then taken into the future where Diluc's warm smile is gone and they have nothing to say to one another, nothing but a cold drink like the abyss mage Kaeya kills with a cold and lost expression like we saw in the beginning as he wonders if he is lying to himself and the persona he makes for others, feeling lost in the starry night. It then flashes to the past and present as it shows Kaeya doing what he's been doing for most of the video, running, whether it be literal as he runs to help Diluc, or more subtle like he stands at the edge of Dawn Winery, running from confronting what happened during the day Diluc lost his father and the day Kaeya lost his home and brother. Running away to the statue, collapsing at his feet, as flashes of images of Kaeya looking happy are shown, but still, he feels alone, like he shouldn’t be there. It cuts back to him and the statue as he "can't take it anymore." We are then shown to a white space with no one but Kaeya as he kept running for a soft spot to fall, but he never found one until he himself decided that this was a soft place as he reaches out to his younger self, accepting his past traumas as pain. As he finally makes it back home, his home, where he is greeted by people who respect him, who value him, who love him, finally being able to stop running and enjoy life as it is.

GOD I CANNOT DESCRIBE HOW BEAUTIFUL THIS IS, you captured his backstory so well, the art and editing is STUNNING and the amount of TEARS i shed. Thank you for making this and i'd LOVE to see your other projects.

Man, every time I come back to this animatic I fall more and more in love with Kaeya's lore. He's such a good character and this animatic is such a good explanation of him.

Now this is why i main kaeya just because his lore is so good❤

I just wanna give him a hug and never let go😭 he deserves everything, Mihoyo pls let them be happy

This I seriously so beautiful! If everyone in the world sang it’s praises it’d still be underrated. I absolutely adore kaeya, he’s a king that deserves all the happiness

I don't exactly remember when did i discovered this animatic, but i was pretty familiar with Kaeya except his origins. Didn't ever expect this to be his backstory. Right now i am taking a break from genshin, but Kaeya is still hanging around in my other account. You did an amazing job of bringing Kaeya's backstory to life, especially that moment when he received his vision. I want to go to heavy details with each scene but yeah that'll be too long, for short what i want to say is this animatic is spectacular.

I am coming back to this video for more suffering after Hidden Strife event. My heart hurts 💔

It's so well made! I really love the simplistic and clean style but with the most details in the most "sad-happy" parts. I am once agin, crying over a lore of this babygirl. I hope he will be alright someday.

I'd love to see more lore in game actually. I know we have archon quests, hang outs and characters stories in profiles. But I think this is not enough. Many of those characters past and backgound could be animated in cutscenes and added to thoses stories in profiles. I just can't focuse on main plot- twins reunion- because this topic is just slowly progressing and it's kinda boring when nothing more is said. But look at whole Diluc and Kaeya lore. This is whole story that could have much more emotional potencial and could make story more realistic in original game. I'm just sad that those most interesing stories are in comics that never going to show up in the game

Agree, we need more details about the characters stories, they can compelete the manha, the problem is that the main story with twins is getting toxic and progression of the story is so slow and the events doesn't complate great aspect of thd story, sad really.

Wow, this was stunning. I actually shed a tear from this, especially when he was running while “I got no other place to go” played

That's so deep. Kaeya really deserves such kind of love. Although he always bears that smile on his face,it must be so hurt deep down in his heart. We just want this brothers can solve their misunderstanding really soon. Now, I will bring my Kaeya back to the team again although I am Chongyun main.

If Kaeya doesn’t have relevance later in the story when we presumedly go to his home place I am gonna sue

When I say this genuinely made me cry- I love the art, the transitions and the syncing to the music! It was beautiful Mondstadt is such a homey place to be and you could walk in and they’ll be there with open arms It is the land with the god of Freedom after all ❤️

oh my goodness, that ending scene at the knights' headquarters made me tear up. wonderful work, have a new subscriber

I love Keaya sm like he’s such a great character ugh

Thanks for making this amazing and beautiful video, I fell in love with the interesting character lore and started to main keaya after watching it a month ago. He and Diluc really deserve more.

this is amazing, the little animations bring so much life to it wow. That transition at 1:29 hurt
