Looking at all the scrapped concept art makes me feel so robbed. It's clear that whoever is the art director at mhy is responsible for all the bland & repetitive designs Genshin has. How tf did these not make it out of the door

⚠️Spoiler Alert⚠️
The way she pauses before "companion" then again before "Blade" 💀 like she actively has to rewire her brain to not call him "my babyboy Bladie"
I'm really down bad for the tiniest crumb 💀💀

Just got to this part but, on top of being super sexy and badass, this scene does a good job of expressing Kafka's and Blade's characters, as well as their relationship through the way they behave. More below

That one part in the livestream where it says Blade is scary to everyone and Kafka's just like "wdym he's scary he's a good boy 🥺" he's just so nice & submissive to his woman fr 🙏🙏

Waitwaitwaitwait so the fake lovers mission headcannon...is actually REAL? We're so delusional that mhy just made Kafka & Blade going to a dinner party together on a mission...a CANON thing??

HUH???

Just noticed this but Blade holds the umbrella with his left hand here to keep his right hand free, either so he can unsheath his sword at any moment, OR, big brain time, to hold Kafka's hand and pull her into the umbrella

Have to say this but holy fUCK BLADE'S STORY IS HIM BEING HOSTILE TOWARD EVERYONE BUT THEN HE MET KAFKA AND LIKE "oh she seems kinda sad i wonder what happened 🙁" LIKE 💀💀
He picks up what lies behind her mask at first sight he cares 🥺

After many hours, here it is. The most in-depth, messy, deranged study of the Stellaron Hunters!
Made this so I can write my kafblade fanfic with lore accuracy. This contains lots of leaks

YALLL LOOK AT KAFKA & SILVER WOLF VANDALIZING HIM. KAFKA EVEN PIN HER BUTTERFLY HAIR CLIP ON HIM ASDSGFDHGJKKK
When you fall asleep first at the sleepover moment 😭
WAIT I just saw this YO I just saw this wtf??
Their voice lines abt each other are so poetic and full of tension. They're THE dangerous and criminal power couple 😭😭😭😭
#Blade
#Kafka
#kafblade
WAIT I realized that Kafka Spirit Whispered these dudes into convicting her, they didn't do it voluntarily. That's why Sam told her to not play with food cuz she literally used them as her dolls & set up a scene where she pretended to get convicted for fun
#HonkaiStarRail
#Kafka
When Kafka's deep in thoughts she likes to scrape her violin to make the most irritating noises possible. Blade is slightly annoyed but then she proceeds to play the most beautiful pieces. Listening to them soothes his soul and calms him

#kafblade
Ok but???
Kafka's tone to others: constant smug, provocative → indicates threat, confidence, slyness
Blade's tone to others: low, hissing voice → indicates threat/warning for people to stay away
Kafka & Blade to each other: calm, gentle, nothing but genuine care 🥺🥺
Good day, fellow kafblade simps. It is my pleasure to announce that, after much effort and much time spent waiting in line, I have finally gotten the Kafka and Blade merch
I've seen ppl claiming "Kafka brainwash Blade" n shit so:
>Blade went insane like Jingliu due to mara
>There's no cure for mara
>His memories are the triggers, so Kafka wipe them to keep him sane & functional, otherwise he'll kill everyone
>Blade is fully aware & agreed to this
Can't stop thinking abt how Blade's combat style is hurting himself for more dmg/using himself as meat shield and Kafka LOVES watching him like she can barely disguise her sadistic kink
Then there's Blade who's too happy to be leashed by her. They're into some hardcore shit man
#Blade
being jealous is like he'd be grumpy and subtly hostile toward his rival and
#Kafka
would tease him to death abt it, but wouldn't do anything if Kafka likes the rival. If she doesn't then he absolutely hunts the terrified rival down with a sword
#HonkaiStarRail
#kafblade
Nooooo adsfawdhgewtrhutjhkk 😭😭😭 It's so funny how Kafka's whole story just reveals how others perceive her, but Blade's story is able to shine a bit of light into her inner thoughts with 1 part. Mihoyooooo 😭

On the other hand this guy just dives straight down. Either he knows what's down there (maybe a starskiff waiting for them) or he really just "no thoughts follow Kafka". Man's head is empty 😭 It clearly shows that he has a strong trust in Kafka and follows her lead
I like how neuvia is the complementary color couple (close enough) 🫠 Like Navia is mainly yellow/gold with some blue accents, while Neuvillette is mainly blue with yellow/gold accents
Kafka's Spirit Whisper lore thread, by my friends & I (contain latest leaks)
What is it?
It's essentially a hypnosis ability that allows Kafka to control others' thoughts and mental states. She will never live down the Makima allegations. Continue below
#HonkaiStarRail
#Kafka
#Kafka
The way Kafka moves is always calm/confident, but never careless. You see she checks first before she does her dramatic trust fall. Her confidence isn't from arrogance, but calculation. It solidifies her character as someone who's in control and actively maintains control
Underappreciated detail: when Neuvillette rescued Navia, there's a brief flash of warm colors on the screen in an otherwise greenish, horror-like atmosphere. Beautiful way to visually show safety, as if to reassure that "he's here, Navia is fine now"
#Navia
#Neuvillette
#Neuvia
The significance of Navia's crying scene is huge, so let's talk abt it. A thread:
Let's start simple. First it establishes her character as someone who cares little abt rules/etiquette and isn't afraid of being open abt her true feelings/opinions
#GenshinImpact
#Fontaine
#Navia
Nahh but imagine Neuvillette genuinely falls in love with Navia & wants her company but struggles with it due to guilt & his sense of duty, and Navia's just rlly frustrated cuz she doesn't understand why he keeps his distance & hide his feelings ok bye 😭😭
#Neuvia
Blade has 0 fashion sense, his clothes are picked by Kafka. He'd just stand still with a straight face to let her put the stupidest outfits on him and laugh her ass off. Those earrings? Yeah Kafka got them for him too
my brain is processing that stellaron hunters living together is real so anyways that means DOMESTIC KAFBLADE go you guys what are you hcs tell me tell me tell me
RIP the voice line is deleted. Any kafbladers that slept through this gonna come on here like "what the FUCK are you guys talking about" it was a collective hallucination sweetie 🙏
I just wanna congratulate
#fuyuan
(or

#jingxuan
why are there so many tags) nation on getting their official wedding. We kafblade got ours and we're very happy for you guys 👍👍
This doesn't even count the fact that Blade just does the HERO LANDING into the scene and makes sure all potential threats stay at least 10 meters away from Kafka I am UTTERLY normal about them 😭😭
She's literally trying her best in such a shitty situation to give him some therapeutic relief. There's no other option for her, yall can't expect her to stand there and watch him kill everyone or get himself killed
All info on Kafka and Blade so I don't have to trace it back again and again whenever I wanna write this damn fanfic
Wandering Cloud relics:
Kafka's and Blade's stories:
Yall I'm still in disbelief like, mhy can make them walk down the wedding isle and I'll still be like, "Wait they're actually canon fr??" 😭 I'm so used to eating tiny crumbs what is this shit
This is all fairly intuitive and many people have pointed it out, but I just want to dive in on how mhy crafts these characters through the details in their animations. It's a fat W for female lead relationships in media and mann I want what they have 🫠
@timelykafblade
This back in the trailer 😭 My senses were tingling and it was great to get a confirmation when the game launched. She really do walk him like her dog 😔
Through the power of Google Translate and online hiragana alphabet:
Chat: Stellaron Hunter Family
Blade: "Follow"
Kafka: "Ara, cute"

Headcannon (actually more like theory) it right now. Sam is like an older brother to Kafka. He sternly reminded her to not play with food after flying over to the window & blasted the Jepella folks to million pieces to break her out. Dude's overprotective
#HonkaiStarRail
#Kafka
Kafka escapes cutscene but I edited the sound of Blade's landing to be more like in the trailer. Comparison below
(Def not an excuse to watch this cutscene over and over again btw)

But ayo ayo
I can already imagine them flirting and calling each other's names mid-fight and Silver Wolf's like "PLEASE. Holy shit. Shut the fuck up already 😭😭"

If this is true then holy shit she's fucking insane 😭😭 No wonder Sam blasted the windows like "child what the FUCK are you doing"
Hc her task is to keep these dudes occupied while the other Hunters stir up a rebellion so she just starts playing with them she's so dramatic istg
What if Blade thinks his scars make his body look hideous and deformed compared to Kafka's pristine skin, but she just thinks they're gorgeous because to her beauty lies in chaos and destruction
Bonus she kisses his scars and makes his cheeks fucking burns

@timelykafblade
Man has 0 fashion sense and his clothes are picked solely by Kafka. He usually accompanies her in shopping trips so she can drag him to try out outfits and carry bags for her
Character Introduction: Blade
A member of the Stellaron Hunters, and a swordsman who abandoned his body to become a blade.

I am in absolute awe. There is genuinely no trailer more beautiful than this. String instruments are my absolute favorite and they fucking nailed it. And the visuals holy fuck. The beautiful, bleeding creepiness of it all
I can't praise it enough man
