Cyno in story quest: Badass mode. Cyno in events: Comedian mode.

Cyno in trailer: Through me justice is served Cyno in game: Colleiflower

Cyno: "Pointless!" Xiao: "Worthless!" Cyno: "Futile!" Xiao: "Lament!" *both looks at each other with mutual agreement*

I love the part about him saying “every soul will be weighed”, referring to Anubis weighing hearts against and ostrich feather. They did their Egyptian research.

Putting all his jokes aside, Cyno is supposed to be a scary, authoritative character, and this shows in the visuals, music and the voice acting. Love it

The English VA for Cyno used to voice act in our videos many years ago. Crazy how far you've come Alejandro! Going to be weird hearing your voice in game!

Damn Cyno's voice actor is killing it. HoYo are slaying it with their voice cast lately!

I don't know why, but at 0:26 when the eye moves from side to side and cyno says "every soul will be weighed" it gives me shivers.

Eula: "This transgression will not go unnoticed, vengance will be mine!" Cyno: "... Until one day, humanity stands blameless, purged of its transgressions" Eula: "NOOOOOOO!!!"

His eng va is like Itto, Mona, and Zhongli. They're literally able to exude the personality of their characters thru their voices. Such powerful voices. Cyno EN is definitely one of my fave en dub along with Zl, Itto, Mona, and Eula now.

The aura he has is like no other. His music is powerful yet sinister in a good way. His voice is iconic, his sentences show how he IS just like Anubis - the one that decides what will happen to mortals after their end. How god-like.💜

Fun fact, while we can all see that his design is based off Anubis, Cyno’s own name is itself a reference of its own. His name is taken from the term “cynocephaly” which literally means “dog-headed” and is used to reference men who had the heads of canids, usually of a dog or jackal.

CYNO SAVERS IT’S BEEN 2 YEARS SINCE WE FIRST LAID EYES ON HIM, NOW HE CANNOT ESCAPE OUR GRASP sick OST as always

When I saw how Cyno holds the eremite and casually throws him away, it makes me think how incredibly strong Genshin playable characters are. For example, despite how petite Xiangling is, the way she attacks with her spear far surpasses any of the trained soldiers in a nation's army.

0:26 I love how I first percieve this as a spotlight waving around on him but then realize it also doubles as an eyeball with it's pupil looking around, looking for sinners and whatnot.

They got the perfect voice for him. He sounds serious without being overly edgy. I wish Xiao had gotten the same treatment. I love Laila, don’t get me wrong, but the direction they gave her makes Xiao sound angry all the time.

The feather is a great detail. Cyno’s design is based on Anubis. Anubis is sort of like a keeper to the duat (underworld in Egyptian mythology). He also decides what kind of afterlife one goes to. He does this by weighing the heart/soul of those who pass with a feather. If the heart is lighter than a feather, then they get the nice afterlife. If it is heavier than the feather, then the heart is eaten by Anubis’s pet. Considering Cyno’s theme of “judgement”, this works exceptionally well. Excellent attention to detail as always, Hoyoverse. Edit: time for the cheesy thanks for the likes. Never thought I’d be top comment on a Genshin video but here we are and it feels good. So thanks! ❤️

After so long he's finally going to be playable, good luck to everyone who wants to get him!!!

Cyno in trailer: Badass fantasy Judge Dredd Cyno in game: The King of Dad Jokes

idk how to put this into words but the bgm for this character demo is so unique that it's like a wave themed electronic slapped with a subtle rhythmic bass that keeps your head bobbing to the rhythm while you vibe with it i never heard of a bgm like this one before but im already addicted to it

Cyno’s sense of justice, paired with his desire to make a joke is absolutely comical. One minute, we have one of my favourite kinds of badass character, and then now another one of my favourites, a character who makes dad jokes. Wonderful l.

*"Every soul will be weighed."* - Cyno Knowing that his design is based off the Egyptian God Anubis, that line is absolutely perfect and badass as hell. 🔥

1:08 "THROUGH ME, JUSTICE IS SERVED" absolute hype, this voice actor is excellent.

May his Korean voice Lee Woori actor rest in peace he sadly passed away this week at the age of 24😢💐💐💐💐

That transition at 0:39 from the strings in the background that make you feel uneasy to the acoustic guitar pick and then the bass kick was TO DIE FOR. My God their music keeps getting better with every trailer

I love the Anubis references. The feather and his phrase "all souls shall be weighed" alludes to how Anubis weighs your heart against a feather to discern if you're worthy to enter the afterlife.

This is the most incredible character video. I love the Egyptian theme. And then there's a character with an Anubis mask. Every soul will be weighed. How gorgeous it sounds! I will try very hard to catch this character and I wish everyone good luck.

pulling for furina and baizhu so i can use them for an ideal cyno quickbloom team, anything for this guy

Alejandro did a great job voicing Cyno! The voice fits perfectly with his personality.

whoever did the editing on this deserves a raise my god what a MASTERPIECE

I’ve been wanting him ever since I started playing and read the manga that everyone suggested to new players. And the way I lost my sh*t when I finally got him and checked his profile to see he has the exact same birthday as me

I can't believe he is same guy cracking those bad jokes in the Windblume Festival

Cyno oozes so much archon energy! If he were in charge of the Vision Hunt, absolutely no one is getting their vision back 😂 Wishing you all Cyno wanters the best of luck

OMG CYNO'S THEME SLAPS!!! His character demo is amazing and the whole Anubis inspiration is fantastic! Sumeru really is having the best OST in all of genshin, between Port Ormos theme, Candance and Cyno's theme it has become my favorite region soundtrack

THROUGH ME JUSTICE IS SERVED

I LOVE HOW THE EYE IN THE BACKGROUND MOVED IN TUNE WITH THE MUSIC- IT JUST ADDS SO MUCH WITH SUCH LITTLE ACTION-

1:40 When you see the fact that a massive explosion is made by Cyno alone makes you wonder if he is strong enough to stand up against a harbinger, those types of explosions you don't really see often in the game (I only remember Childe and or Traveler in the opening cutscenes)

Did y'all notice the circle behind Cyno moving behind his splash art? 0:26 It looks like an eye moving, it's kinda creepy. Also, Anubis's head standing behind him. I love how eerie this demo is 😭😭😭😭

I just noticed how Cyno and Xiao are so alike- voice lines: Cyno: "Pointless!" Xiao: "Worthless!" Cyno: "Futile!" Xiao: "Lament!" Both are one of the shortest characters in game Both are Polearm users. Both are one of the strongest and main DPS. Both put all their efforts on decapitating evil. Both put on a mask when they use their elemental burst. (Xiao: the mask of his yaksha form) (Cyno: the mask of jackal which represents Anubis) Also, both have special titles for their nations: The conqueror of demons, adeptus Xiao General Mahamatra Cyno

I love everything about him his design, his theme, his playstyle, he's so much fun to use idc what anyone says abt him, I do enjoy his playstyle and his character as a whole.

Cyno character is so interesting and his Character Demo doesn’t disappoint. Good job Mihoyo!

HoYoVerse: Presents us with this new character Players: How could we "Cyno" to this?

Obsessed with the song in the background.. and the fact that Alejandro voices him is just perfect

RIP Lee Woori the voice behind Cyno 🙏🏻

No way this is so cool and huge props to Alejandro for the great voice acting can't wait to get Cyno ingame

The music! The effects! The voice acting! It’s all so perfect! Good luck to everyone pulling for him!

Love how Cyno says “Every soul shall be weighed”, as his headpiece represents a Jackal, and the Egyptian god Anubis has the head of a Jackal. Anubis is the god of the Necropolis, and he weighed the hearts of the dead to determine whether or not they are worthy of entering the Field of Reeds (which is basically the Egyptian’s heaven).

I love how HYV are testing the waters with new music genres every time. Can't wait for them to make some banging hardbass

i really love his voice. it's serious and stern and doesn't come off as overdoing it

He is genuinely an amazing character with a fantastic design, I hope whoever pulls for him gets him

CYNO PLEASE COME BACK I NEED YOU

Rest in peace, Lee Woo-ri. We will miss you😢

he's giving me ei, he's giving me xiao, his (voice) is giving me albedo, and DAMN I AM HERE FOR IT

0:27 Eye movement and the music fantastically fit so well🔥

The music is so beautiful. I love Cyno so much, he's such a cool character.

i love the little details of the crows, which is a symbolism of darkness and death but also "change" and "transformation" it's also believed that crows would carry the souls of the dead to the other side very much like Anubis (a clear reference to his design) 💕

YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW EXCITED I WILL BE WHEN THE OST COMES OUT ON SPOTIFY

This demo feels so different and I can't put my finger on as to why I love it. Don't know if it's just me but this demo gives such villainous vibes

if i was just starting the game and hadnt seen any character before and you told me that cyno was the electro archon i would absolutely believe you.

I'm seriously geeking out over everything in this video from the music, the syncing of the beats, the mytho references, HIS VOICE- it's all PERFECT.

the design, the voice, the gameplay, the personality, the OST I love EVERYTHING about this character. good luck everyone!

I saw the raven and immediately remembered Raiden’s trailer. This one also has the glitch effect like the raiden one. Electro character demos are really on another level

RIP LEE WOORI.

0:39 a tear ran down my thigh

Manifesting Cyno for everybody in their first pull, good luck everyone! Gosh he’s so gorgeous, the wait is finally over!

At long last a 2nd Electro male character as a 5 star like a junior Pharoah. I personally like his fangs and when he extends his arm into the enemies faces, his pose... All of it is just too amazing

Man genshin demos getting better and better. Cyno’s feels like a archon demo. Probably my second favorite. Next to Ei’s.

The most badass character in Genshin, after Neuvillete

The music and the thumbnail looks so epic, really fitting for him as expected Can’t wait to pull for him, and good luck to everyone else wishing for him 🙏

GOD the Anubis visuals are AMAZING!!! The attention to detail with the Egyptian Gods are amazing too, loving the statues of Amit and Khonshu! I love Cyno so much I can’t wait to finally get him!!!!

0:25 estou presa nessa parte. Essa representação do olho se movendo no ritmo da música ficou incrível, combinado com a voz do Alejandro então, nem tenho palavras pra elogiar

I love to see Alejando is now voicing Cyno. I really loved his performance as Yuri in FE3H and I really look forward to Cyno's appearences in the story

I wasn't expecting the tone to hit this fast and this sudden, it just went right into business! Hoyoverse really made him look like a fierce all-judging God.

So hyped that he's finally coming out tomorrow,may all Cyno wanters be Cyno Havers!

This trailer is masterpiece, I do not understand why people do not like it 😭

0:25 this scene?? with the eye in the back moving with the trumpet?? ITS SO COOL AND FOR WHAT

This is my fourth Genshin character demo as someone who does not play Genshin but started seeing these on my feed, and I am still impressed. The music strikes, once again, as entirely fitting to the inspirations of the character as well as the character design with regards to Egyptian history and culture. Thank you for this wonderful bit of music and cinematography. Edit: Oh wow, thank you so much for all the likes and recommendations! I'm making a list right now of all the ones everyone has said, soundtracks included, so I'll try to make my way through them and see what I think! Since someone asked, the other three before this were Candace's, Zhongli's, and the Raiden Shogun's, heh. I enjoyed them all! I might play the game in the future, so hopefully there's not too many spoilers in the rest of these. 😅

I've never been so in love in my life. I'm physically trembling. This music.... These animations... Cyno, my boy... Welcome home at last...

Extremely underrated trailer fr

CYNO BABE COME BACK PLS I REGRET SKIPPING YOU

I just realised that this is actually our second electro boy in a long long time and Razor's no longer alone in the category What's even better is that they're both wolf bois so I'm looking forward to how they'll interact in the future 😊

This looks INSANE, who else is hyped for cyno, also! Happy genshin anniversary everyone!

Cyno should be buried in a glass pyramid when he dies. He really deserves a tomb with a view.

He is just like anubis, it’s crazy

the music sounds like it's slowly crippling to me. It may not be the typical "goes hard" but it's haunting and hypnotizing, almost like it's trying to reveal something much much bigger than it sounds little by little without trying to scare you away in an instant. It doesn't activate your sense of danger until it's too late to run away. the one thing that never disappoint in genshin is their music.

As if I wasn’t already hyped up enough for the General… Once again HoYo slapped us with another great trailer (dayum they never stop improving do they?). Really thankful for the effort and I can’t wait to get Cyno alongside my fellow travelers. May you all be blessed on judgement day xD

IM GONNA CRYRYRYRY I DIDNT HSVE ENOUGH PULLS FOR HIM AT THAT TIME

his theme goes soooo hard omfg

i may be a beginner player but i don’t think i’ll regret pulling for him since he’s just so damn cool. hope everyone wins the 50/50 !!

Out of all the characters shown in the first trailer on Teyvat's nation, Cyno's design struck me the most. I've waited far too long. Not coming home isn't an option here. Qiqi don't you even dare ruin this

i swear, never thought id find myself playing in EN more often. the EN casting is honestly amazing and its not stopping with cyno

This musical theme is so brutal and epic. Even for the Harbingers it's too cool, but it would be perfect for some god from Celestia

"Every soul will be weighed" gave me chills

The fact that me, my little brother & sister have been waiting forever for him to make an appearance in the game, ever since we saw him in the trailer of all nations. Something about him just makes me so attached to his character, the story, the design and appearance in overall. Maybe mostly because he is the main character of the Sumeru, like how Diluc is of Monstadt, Ningguang for Liyue and Ayaka for Inazuma. I really love how much detail Hoyoverse has put out on their characters; especially since they make them as realistic as in reality based on the world’s mythology. Cyno is for instance, is heavily inspired by Anubis, Egyptian mythology!! It’s so interesting because we players, even somehow we don’t notice it, we are learning so much about culture of this world, whilst all throughout playing this game; for free :) hoyoverse really is pulling it !!!! 😌😌 Inshallah let’s hope I’ll get Cyno

My favourite thing is how Cyno has lost his intimidation status now. He may look scary but we all know the guy is a giant nerd who cracks dad jokes.

Words cannot describe the beauty of that soundtrack. SO GOOD!

This honestly has to be one of my favorite trailers because of how satisfying and cool it is especially the music 😩

Best designed Sumeru character. The concept, the design, the personality, even the gameplay perfectly suit not only the lore of the world but also its culture. Plus, he's absolutely cool and awesome as heck. That's legit one of the most epic elemental burst in the game.

5 mascots out of 8: Diluc✅ Ningguang✅ Ayaka✅ Cyno✅ Lyney and Lynette✅ Iansan Pulcinella Dainsleif

I'm loving his BGM. 0:59 OK that fact he carry someone more bigger and heavier than him with just one arm without struggling, Cyno is not someone to mess with.
