I love how Tighnari just completely brushes off the hallucination and goes right back to notetaking.

Kazuha: *one with nature* Tighnari: *one with the forest* 🤝

1:17 The way the music swells and tenses up as the Grounded Hydroshroom appears, but is then overtaken by Tighnari's theme coming back in even more powerful than before and at a higher pitch/octave with the strings 1:23. It feels so simple, yet so great and adds so much to the theme ^^

Rewatching this after the VA’s incident, i realized that i shouldn’t be disliking Tighnari. There’s so much artistry from so many different people to make this character: the directors/writers giving him a story and personality, the musicians making his wonderful emotional theme, the artists giving him beautiful visuals and fx, the programmers making sure he’s working ingame… there’re so many people involved. Hating Tighnari just because his EN VA is a bad person is just not fair. I would still love his character and this demo, just a little less :’>

Tighnari: *sees crazy things in his hallucination* Also Tighnari: *let me get back to my research*

Tighnari: attacks funghi Also Tighnari: why are these funghi so aggressive? I wonder what's causing it

Reminder: .Tighnari ≠ elliot .Tighnari fans ≠ elliot supporters .Tighnari doesn't need the support, the victims do.

Still not tired telling myself that this is the best soundtrack!

Expectation: A dangerous new threat to the forest that turns its peaceful wildlife aggressive. Reality: Tripping on mushrooms. I love this trailer.

he’s genuinely a really likable character and such a nerd, i love him

The vibes I got from Tighnari based on his demo: Calm, likes hands-on experiences, research-focused cutie How Tighnari actually is: “YA BIG LUMMOX” “What are they gonna do, ARREST ME? I _dare_ them.”

surely I'm not going to get over this theme until several months later.

Summary: Tighnari looks at guy high on mushrooms pitifully, kills imaginary mushrooms and then realizes in the end he was also high and hallucinating and uses that experience for research .......I definitely wanna join the Akademiya

“This is a dangerous thing.” *proceeds to consume* I love this guy.

Condolences for the victims out there, it’s very brave of them to speak out. Really did not expect this disgusting behavior from Elliot. And remember everyone, please do not associate Tighnari with Elliot and hate on the character as there will be a new ENG VA. Absolutely disappointing and vile to see this abuse of power.

Tighnari is such a goal-oriented and objective character, very characteristic of actual researchers/biologists/environmentalists in the field. Glad to see Hoyoverse subtly bringing awareness on protecting our environment through a character like Tighnari!

Tighnari is apparently supposed to be a fennec fox, which makes it quite fitting for him to be eating poisonous food, because fennec foxes literally eat scorpions.

Tighnari is definitely someone who would jump of a cliff to test if there is fall damage

Please, do NOT mix up the voice behind Tighnari with the character himself. As much as it hurts, as much as I feel sorry for the victims, don't go after the character and mainly DO NOT GO AFTER PEOPLE WHO LIKE TIGHNARI!! He's a FICTIONAL character you can still like and enjoy playing and he is VERY DIFFERENT from the real voice actor. Hopefully we will get a new voice actor for him, just really hoping whoever they choose, the new VA will stay true to the Tighnari we know. Once again, my heart goes to anyone who was caught up in everything and hurt in any way. But I really feel like people forget that Character ≠ Voice actor Welcome to the Genshin family, new Tighnari VA!

Tighnari my love dont let that thing represent you🥰🥰

I would totally listen to a nature documentary on all of Sumeru’s flora narrated by Tighnari’s voice actor.

Ganyu: fighting hilichurls while sleeping Tighnari: fighting mushrooms while being under mushrooms This is getting interesting

Dude I like him so much. He's giving a really interested in their job and very smart person vibes. And the way he talks, and his voice, and his outfit, and his in-game abilities. I just like everything about him

The way I ran to the newest comments after the incident, glad to see that most people aren't defending ellishit

Tignari: sees a person suffer from hallucination Also Tignari: continues to talk about mushrooms Just how much does he love those mushrooms?

Tighnari: "one with the forest" Kazuha: "one with nature" I have a feeling they'd get along

Please look at Dreiku’s channel, his voice really suits Tighnari!

"What are they gonna do? Lock me up?" That line sure didn't age well 💀

1:56 The way he handles a pen, the same way he takes out out his bow. These little details are amazing.

Tighnari: “So that was a hallucination” My brother in Christ, you *ate* the mushroom

I feel bad for what his VA caused to genshin community. I'm a new player but before playing genshin, i came to knew already the issue beforehand (well probably bc of tiktok). So i was like "oh i will not pull tighnari because of the issue" but eventually- in this dehya's banner pulling, i got lost and got him instead of dehya. At first, i was so disappointed and not touching him for a weeks tho he is my second 5 star character but after learning- diving through his stans, i'm just quite fascinated how his fandom was nice, loving and trying to protect him. And i was low ar that time, i came to force to build him with the help of my friend. And i was guilty after knowing that he is so easy and become match unexpectedly to my play style during combat. And after that- because of him (and the windblume festival) i got so much amazing friends, and some of them praising how my tighnari good is. And i'm crying internally because without him, i wouldn't experience this joy and he carried my heavenly journey in the game. I got his C1 last monday, and i never regret any single of it. He's so precious character, his story, his personality and everything inside him is so wonderful, i really loved him despite of my bad impression at the first encounter; for me...i think it's not too late for loving him and i hope some genshin fans came to realize that tighnari WILL BE NEVER AND NOT HIS VA. His fandom is big and lot of nice people~ To my tighnari, no matter what happen in the future, i might change my main or not- you're the main reason where i'm at, i love you and i will protect you at all cost!❤

Alone due to VA drama this video suddenly got 300K more views.

I love how genshin improved in animation! Specially on expressions, they don’t look as lifeless now

My man just hallucinated his own demo lmao. I love him, good luck to people who are pulling for him

“What are they going to do, Lock me up?” yes

Came here after I heard his theme for the first time during the Windblume festival and was basically injected with serotonin. I love his theme so much! I could listen to it for hours.

"Is this mushroom poisonous? **shrugs** Guess there's only one way to find out!" - Tighnari

Tighnari: "These mushroons cause delirium" Also Tighnari: *proceeds to eat said msuhrooms* I never gave much thought about bow units but this guy makes it so dang hard not to wish for him!

Tignari-💪 Tignari's VA-🤡

Y'all forgetting tighnari, aka the character helped a minor and saved her, unlike his voice actor. Character ≠ their voice actor

I love how much more animated the actual animation is. They've really improved

Love how he a scientist, does shrooms, learns from trippin, has a notebook. We all could learn from this fellow

“What are they gonna do? Lock me up? I dare them” This ages badly…

Here before this inevitably gets rerecorded with a new English VA!

"Fungi aren't this aggressive" Me in Chasm: "Are you sure about that?" also me in the Chasm after seeing them trapping themself with their own attack: "True"

I love how he starts genociding the fungi and then just goes “fungi arent usually this aggressive”

Did you realized that tighnari made a pun? 0:22 "much like these fungi here"

This hurts so much....

Imagine how hard it was for the VA not to laugh while voicing “Oh, beautiful mushroom maiden!”

So Tighnari's Demo is just him high on shrooms. Good stuff, can't wait to get him.

Goodbye elliot. I hope this new va would be better person Edit: Tighnari kinda looks like young waver from fate series. So i think he should be voiced by Lucien Dodge.

there’s no way people don’t like his design? if anything he may be one of the best designed characters in the game

Tighnari is basically a Sumeru version of Albedo. These two ought to meet each other in an event just to see their interactions

Okay, okay, Tighnari is amazing and his ears are SO FLUFFY, but can we just admire how much these character demos have improved? Good job Hoyoverse.

Want this voice back 😭

Just a few things i wanna say after Tighnari's VA incident: - Don't jump Tighnara and his VA together, they are 2 different entities. - Elliot (Tighnari's VA) did something very very bad, but that won't change my opinion on Tighnari as a Genshin character at all, just sad thought that the voice i'm so familiar with be replaced. - Credit when credit is due. Yes, Elliot's actions were bad, but his performance as Tighnari was incredible and really sold. - Don't dislike this trailer because of such unforeseen event in real life, no one knows things would have turned out this way, but this trailer is about Tighnari, a character inside Genshin Impact, not Elliot Gindi the voice actor.

The way he just casually returns to note-taking as if he didn't consume a "mildly" toxic mushroom💀..ahh Tighnari, seems like a FUN-GUY(I) haha get it..no?

I don’t care if he’ll be on the standard banner, he’s too cute to pass up. Every time I lose the 50/50 to him it will just be an extra constellation

Damn, what a nice voice actor! I hope hes nice and funny! I sure hope he dosent do anything bad!

I wished elliot wasnt a horrible person. He really suited tighnari's voice.

i love how genshin’s demo animations are just getting better and better!!

Tighnari’s theme is so good! Really “plants” in that disney princess feel!

Sad. I really like his voice. If there's a new va, I hope he gives us the same vibe.

Elliot definitely was NOT the best person for what he did but his voice fit Tighnari SO well. I completely understand why they changed the voice because if one of the people that was involved with Elliot heard his voice in game, I don't think that would be a very pleasant experience but I still like Zachary Gordon as his va, and I'm happy they found a new person to voice Tighnari

I'm pretty sure Tighnari and Albedo would get along swimmingly. They can feed the traveler suspicious items and watch on as they take notes.

Kazuha: One with nature Tighnari: One with the forest

Elliot, you wont be missed

I didn't expect him to have the prettiest music among the sumeru characters so far

I love how this entire demo is literally just Tighnari hallucinating on shrooms… I must pull for my soulmate

HYV really said 'Some people aren't hyped for Tighnari, let's change that." This is such a cool character demo ! The VA is so good plus the animations ! 💚

I love tighnaris theme so much, I want a download of this song but I cant find it anywhere 😩😭

Tighnari: Fungi Cyno: You mean Fun Guy?

"Oh, Beautiful Mushroom Maiden..." Let's be honest. That Mushroom trip he's having must be amazing. 🍻

The animations of genshin character demos are getting so much better! I can’t wait for Tighnari!

Who’s here after the incident?

Tighnari ISNT his eng va and his eng va ISNT Tighnari His VA's reputation is unforgivable but Tighnari shouldn't be blamed for having such a misfortune Tighnari deserves better and he deserves a better va edit: there was a typo

I love that he’s so determined to keep the people who go into the forest safe, he quite literally just tests the mushrooms himself 😂✋ Edit: MÁMA IM FAMOUS 🤩

Theme is beautiful, Tighnari looks lit, but omg that transition into his splash art was sick... One more day then 3.0

Coming here again because I’m addicted to the theme song

Remember This Tighnari helped a Minor overcome struggles. The Other one had other plans.

Wasn’t too keen on Tighnari when I first saw him but he slowly grew on me the past few weeks. Now I really want him on my team due to his badass philosophies and especially since he has been taking care of our favourite little sprout Collei as her teacher xD

Character demos have come such a long way since when the game first started. It’s so goodddd and the music was hitting like it always does😩

Goodbye Elliot Voice, you won’t be missed.

I love how tighanaris va Is so calm It feels like your watching a documentarry

I will never shut up about how adorable his ears are, and how the music sounds so good!

Really sad and disappointed after the whole Tighnari's EN VA scandal... I hope they find a replacement that can match his current voice 😓

something about this demo is so CLEAN hyverse are really improving every update, it’s insane

Hoyo, gotta give props to you that we're seeing more smoother animations here 1:53 instead of recycled animations. The OST too giving me goosebumps

the similarity with ganyu even the teaser both were fighting in their dreams. can't believe tighnari teaser is just him being high or lucid dreaming. also, they can induce dreaming? 1:01 oh no, my baby mushroom crying :(((( 1:56 sick pen spin animation

we need this with zachary gordon

i hope they cast someone as fitting as his last va, tighnari's voice was perfect how it was i'm so sad man

The transition from the animation to the character art was so amazing 🥹 And the music is sounds so mystical, but gentle like Tighnari, can’t wait to pull for the amazing fox boy 🤲🏻

About a week before he got leaked to the community, I was telling my BF how I wanted a character like Ganyu, but with a different element. Preferably even dendro but I joked that was probably too much to ask for. I always like the plant element most in games when it's an option, so I've really been looking forward to dendro the most, then the first 5 star is exactly what I wished for in a dendro character.. Tomorrow is gonna be like the best christmas ever for me.. Congrats to everyone else guaranteed for Tighnari or Zhongli 😊

1:58 "... slightly bitter taste" is the perfect description of how I feel listening to Elliot's voice now.

I’m absolutely disgusted with Tighnari's EN VA! Elliot is so talented, what an absolute waste it was for him to use that to his advantage!! Tied with his Chinese, he used to be my favourite voice of Tighnari! Now I can barely listen to his voice without feeling slightly ill! To think that a sassy yet kind-hearted character was voiced by someone so twisted it's unsettling! What's worse was how he used his talent and their adoration for Tighnari to lure in those that are vulnerable, and that's what these predators do! So if I'm uncomfortable listening to his EN voice, then I can't imagine how that must feel for the victims that had listened to his lines considering what he did! I'm glad Hoyoverse took immediate action and are working to recast Tighnari; to serve justice for the victims and for EN users to enjoy Tighnari again! like the cute sassy botany nerd he is!!

the way the floating fungus had teary eyes when tighnari sent it flying 😭😭

Something about him feels really unique. He’s a lot less rigid than most characters. Even the goofy ones.

00:52 "ONE WITH THE FARTS!"

Atleast Tighnari’s Japanese and Korean VAs are clean, it seems.

"Look, we need a music for a character demo. Don't have to go too crazy on it tho." * Proceed to craft a masterpiece *
