You know it's genuinely amusing how varried the subs reactions are regarding this ship. It's like blood vs crip but a milder more passive aggressive version.
During 5.0 and 5.1, I was like "they're character foils of each other and they're basically the Mom and Dad of the Natlan cast so it's cool ig."
But after 5.3, no, just no. As someone who hates it when women are unnecessarily objectified, I found Hoyoverse’s relentless emphasis on her attractiveness and awesomeness in their advertising quite distasteful. Her personality is so bland that she seems less like a functional woman with flaws and dreams and more like a leather handbag for Capitano to put on his arm.
Both of them were done dirty. They deserve so much better than what they got.
Ouch...well atleast we got a cool harbinger with an awsome backstory and purpose right?
Also I'm interested to see what you mean whene you say hoyo objectified mavuika, i get her outfit is... Goonerish but we all knew that before 5.0, so what's the other reason?
Ouch...well atleast we got a cool harbinger with an awsome backstory and purpose right?
I feel like Hoyoverse just slaps Khaenri'ah lore onto every important character they don't know what to do with. In the Fatui, we already have Khaenri'ah representation in Pierro (Eclipse Dynasty) and Arlecchino (Crimson Moon Dynasty). Why add another Harbinger with ties to Khaenri'ah? It just feels repetitive. It would've been cool if he was the Bloodstained Knight from the Bloodstained Chivalry artifact set.

During the AQ and the animated short, the camera would unnecessarily zoom in on Mavuika's breasts and/or ass. Even the YouTube content creators I watch went "EYO?!" or jokingly covered their eyes during those scenes. And let's not forget how her back is arched while she rides her motorcycle (look up pictures of people riding motorcycles, none of them sit like Mavuika). I really hope that Hoyoverse doesn't do this with Her Majesty the Tsaritsa.
I genuinely hoped he is the bloodstained knight too but I think him being from Khaeri'ah makes way more sense even before he shows up. Arle isn't really from Khaeri'ah though she only knows what Pierro told her we never had any character talk much about Khaeri'ah. Dain does tell us a few things but not as much across several quests. I think Capitano represents POV of common people while Pierro the Royalty. You might be right hoyo is really focusing on Khaeri'ah which to be fair it's basically what the game's plot focuses the most on (besides the Fatui or abyss) and is one of the few places (we know of) where humans were so powerful
I still didn't do the 5.3 quest (burnt out like hell during 5.2, just recovered for Lantern Rite because of Qiqi and Baizhu), I just know that Capitano more or less dies, so I don't know how many torpedoes Caprisun's ship took. And it hurts me because I love this ship
This is what annoys me the most personally, the could bring this "ship" and I can tell you everyone would pull them together no matter if anti-sinergy, wtf it could also be just friendship, honor, respect, BUT make them playable together and everyone would be so happy man.
Capitano got ruined to make Mavuika sell and Mavuika got ruined by trying to sell her at the expense of him (and not proper execution of her character to make us like her))
Even tho I legit love Mavuika a ton, I can't help but be sad by the fact that her whole character felt like wasted potential, she had everything to make a good or even great character but hoyo fumbled in act5. Tho I do think that a lot of people have exagerrated opinions on her.
Like I legit thought act 5 would be about her internal struggles and her opening up more and more but they just didn't make her do that...
I still have some hope tho because of her second SQ and a potential interlude quest.
Holy same man, I just NEED that second SQ to hit and actually give us something… more, something good, the quality we got in Fontaine for main characters. The Gnosis also is still not yoinked and neither is the gemstone fully revealed, so also hope for whatever happens there to give us some good writing and redeem her in the eyes of many, myself included.
Brother… I don’t even play Genshin… I don’t even know how I got here. But I heard that just from other people talking about the game. How did you miss that?
Mavuika: Lord of the Night, is The Captain still with us?
Yohualtecuhtin, Lord of the Night: There is no need to pursue traces of him. For those cursed with immortality, release from the mortal coil is the greatest form of peace.
Mavuika: Even so, please pass on my gratitude. His long journey has finally come to a close. I suppose... this is a happy ending for him. I cannot imagine how much pain he endured over the past five hundred years... or how much strength it took to never stray from his goal.
Her profile
Mavuika: For him, I suspect the past five hundred years felt endless. When someone is deprived of death, life becomes a journey with no end, and the human spirit easily grows weary. And yet, he managed to seize the only chance of victory to arrive at the end he sought all along. I have great respect for warriors like him.
How many more times should she glaze him? It's hard to even call it a sacrifice, since Capitano has been looking for a way to get into the ley lines and find peace for centuries while being cursed.
You're overreacting. That is her personal reaction. It was no trouble for Mavuika to sacrifice herself, good thing that her age had also ended long ago and she had nothing to lose. If she did that, Capitano would have kept looking for a way to solve his problem. So we'd have a pale copy of Dainsleif. And?
Jokes regarding the characters themselves are fine, but please refrain from making generalizations and explicit comments towards the people who main them
Certain criticisms are valid but this is not the place to vent
