Traveler saving Thoma is #1 for me. The stakes are high af Traveler is down, Paimon is panicking and what the GigaChad Thoma does? Chucks a spear to Raiden's face.

Kazuha 100% best character of Inazuma archon quest. Appeared on the 4 acts and made cool appearances, saved Traveler’s life, won the war for the Resistance and even managed to activate the dead electro vision, got stronger than traveler for a while(stopped Raiden’s Ult literally). Truly a KazuChad

After seeing the fatui harbinger’s, the childe story quest scene was more cooler than ever.

Bruh the fact the Unknown god not only has the eyes of HoV but also shares the same Chinese and Japanese VA as Kiana and HoV still makes me believe they are connected

At 07:21. It's not like those NPCs think that they can take down the traveler but instead they've chosen to give their life to Shogun and so they have to face anyone who interrupt or gets in her way even if that means sacrificing themself.

I'm glad someone finally pointed out that Ningguang sounds kind of flat in the archon quests. Even in Shenhe's introduction quest, shes pretty monotone. She actually sounds better in her hangout events and voicelines rather than actual story scenes. Idk why that could be

By the 'epic' I think they include just the battle scene. In my opinion, Raiden 1st encounter is the most excited scene since I have no idea what's going on and everything escalated so quickly.

I even still remember that time on your first reaction of genshin trailers where you dont believe shogun is playable

One of my favorite things from shenhe archon quest was that qiqi was supposed to evacuate the harbor but know one believed or listened to her so she was prepared to defend the harbor😭

Ningguang dropping a Nuke- I mean Jade Chamber on Osial will always have a place in my heart

17:47 For me the turning point was Shenhe's quest. It was just so beautiful and genuinely gave me goosebumps. They also make her backstory very tragic and compelling. Not only that but they also introduce Beido and Yun Jin.

As a new player who just started a few months ago i totally agree that the sacrificing of the jade chamber was a HUGE turning point like yeah the monstadt archon quest was nice and i liked the thing between dvalin and venti but liyue archon quest was literally a whole rollercoaster of emotions like how helping zhongli prepare for the rite of parting was a little break from the constant combat and also a bit funny (cause yk mora and childe coming to the rescue) but then defeating childe and then ninguang being a badass gosh it's only been a few months since i played that archon quest but i already wanna replay it again.

For me, the ending of the chasm interlude was the best cutscene. I LOVE Xiao and seeing him sacrifice himself for the Traveler, Yanfei, Yelan, Itto and Kuki was really amazing. Everything from the sountrack to the animation to the whole story brought a tear into my eye. I wish i could see that again for the first time.

Shenhe's cutscene will always be my favorite one, Idk why tho.. I remember first time seeing it I had goosebumps all over my body, Shenhe just wants to be a part of society 🥺

I know everyone has their favorite. The one I liked the most was the "Divine Damsel of Devastation." The singing in the cutscene is pretty darn good, even though I don't understand Chinese.

Genshin cutscenes have the tendency to make me emotional to the point I at times tear up. They do a fantastic job with their animations and story telling art!

ningguang activating her gate of babylon is on another level

I died at sheesh face Lumine. Bran you're a legend😂

Just YESTERDAY I was looking for someone reacting to this video and found no one, and now here is Bran omg Got my wish like Xingqiu did in Kazuha’s banner, I’m gonna have a nice dinner time 😁

That "aye it's kaeya" made me burst out of laughter 😂😂

I love how the voice actor conveyed Signora's emotions, that voice break when she charges at Raiden was so nice

every scene where childe goes harbinger mode is indeed an epic scene

Just rewatched the Childe vs ruin guards and I gotta say, he's never transformed that fast Fighting the Traveler? Kalm (transforms slowly) Being judged and surrounded by Fontainian Gardemeks in the courtroom? Kalm (transforms with style, slowly) Teucer being in danger? Panik (instant transformation mid-movement) Gotta love big brother Ajax

I'm very biased to say that my favorite cutscenes are Childe vs the ruin guards, Diluc on the bridge, and Kazuha blocking Musou no Hitotachi because I love all three characters' designs, playstyles, and personalities lol Can't wait to see what Sumeru has to offer

KAZUHA STORY QUEST SPOILER 18:44 Ask and you shall recieve

I'm a bit sad that they didnt put the cutscene where xiao sacrifices himself to teleport the others out of the chasm but gets saved by zhongli. I think that was 1 of the best cutscenes

I agree with you regarding the battle on the Jade Chamber, that scene was a turning point. Up to then, I had sort of gone through the missions and quests thinking "boy, do they talk a lot in this game, there's so much lore..." but that scene makes you get emotionally invested in the story, and you realize that this is a world where things are happening around the main character and not as a direct consequence of them. The narrative work is amazing here, that's why the Liyue archon quest is still my favorite.

Childe. Good old Childe. Even as a main I dunno if I love or hate this man sometimes. But after seeing the rest of the gang, he alright.

Tbh every Raiden cutscene is pretty darn iconic in my book.

I never really considered this but the unknown god is asked "who are you" and responds with "the sustainer of heavenly principals". Maybe... she's not an actual god or even living thing, but a 'program' that 'runs' Celestia to operate things the way those in charge of it intended, similar to Ei with the Raiden Shogun but much more advanced?

I don't have a favourite moment, and I would put all of these in the same-ish level. However, I want to see how they're going to continue this story because the stakes are getting higher

i love how in the kazuha scene fighting raiden the soilders were like "yeah we are going to jump the raiden shogun with no vision and crappy weapons and nothing is going to go wrong"

I agree with you with these, keep it up Bran hope for the channel to grow❤️

Yey, I finally caught up with your latest upload. I started watching your Genshin gameplay last month and now here I am. Goodluck in pulling your wishes.

What I like most about the Traveler vs Childe fight is that the traveler can be seen using 2 elements at the same time. So while gameplay wise it's not easy but at the very least why won't they let us be able to switch it without going to statuses. Also I can't look at Albedo the same way After finding about his voice actor he's too funny

my favorite cutscene is the end of inazuma archon quest act 3. i consider it one grand cutscene - the GOAT cutscene. since think about it. you have the signora one which is absolutely mindblowingly epic. then you get that thing where you can't actually do anything but you get walked out from tenshukaku by the game which to me can be considered part of the cutscene and it builds up so much tension. to me that walk was really epic and it helped take the time in between all this stuff to process what even is going on. then the kazuha thing happens which is just as mindblowing if not more. then a short fight. another cutscene. second part of the short fight. more cutscenes from raidens past. that's not a game - it's an interactive AAA movie.

You know I like how among all others , her excellency the almighty Narukami Ogosho God of Thunder is the only boss who sees the traveler and is like " okay.... I have this mega super Death ultimate move so why don't I just use it from the start" it's like fifteen seconds between meeting us and ulting...

i think we all deserve the diluc scene with his new skin tho 😫😫😫😫

I was very into the Susbedo fight scene right up until he turned into a giant whopper flower, my disappointment was immeasurable.

11:50 YOU’RE REACTION WAS LITERALLY MEEEE

My Favorite cutscenes must be when its dark or raining and i also think the scaras past life cutscenes, sacrifising the jade jamber and the Shenhe one are by far my most favorite cutscenes

My favorite cutscenes are the last cutscene/s (I don't remember if it was 1 cutscene or 2 cutscenes) of Xiao's Chasm quest and Kazuha blocking the Musou no Hitotachi. The Windblume Festival and first Lantern Rite had great ending cutscenes, too. ^^

I gotta say, the fight against the unknown god is pretty much the best intro cinematic to any game period i have seen in a long time. And its a great list, some i might have switched around but it shows all the right ones regardless.

This really brings back memories haha such an epic journey.

on the signora cutscene, i edited a fart sound as soon as raiden killed her and sent it to my friends who didnt play genshin and they still laughed

i feel like the 2nd raiden battle is higher bcs it's after we found out about the delusions and teppei dying and stuff so it's more memorable because we had a whole story arc before it

I so agree that the Jade Chamber scene was the moment where I first thought that "hol' up this game is for real"

Hi Bran! have you read the manga? I so badly want to recommend read it before Sumeru if you thought about it and wants. I can't find it on your channel if you already did it. It has a short story and will greatly enrich some idea of the Sumeru.

Me personally, really liked 2nd fight with Raiden Shogun. I predicted the Traveller using the people's ambitions from the statue to defeat her minutes after the 2.1 livestream.. I was at the edge of my seat! Siked out of my mind!! Teppei didn't die in vain!

#1, muskets and roses cutscene

6:16 I love how there's just this purple sparkling thing in the fog and you're like "Oh no a 4-star"

This was a fun video to watch! It was good to refresh on my memories. If we ever fight the unknown god. I swear to god they better not make her be floating in the sky while I have to shoot her down with arrows. She needs to be at least on the ground at least. I’m more of a sword user so that’s gonna be hard if she’s floating lol.

I think that the calibert mirror cutscene was my #1

I think the very first cut scene ever is my favorite,I have been a traveler main for the whole game so far (AR 55) and I love Lumine and Aether so much I am very invested in their lore/story.

13:00 Bennett Ult lets fcking goooo!

imo, the JP voiceover did better justice at the part where Paimon was all panicked at 9:40 especially when she gave a little shriek. it really sounded like genuine fright. the ENG voiceover sounded like an "oh no..." while the JP voiceover sounded like a "shit! no!"

Fantastic compass is number one for me how xiao sacrificed his life for everyone with yelan realising what he did and tries to go after him and then we he falls zhongli goes behind then just AHHH it’s so good

2:46 Tartaglia/Childe is number eleven of the eleven Fatui Harbingers. The last of the rank. So yeah, if this is number eleven, what will the higher numbers be? But yet again, we already beat number 8

Raiden second phase cutscene was my favorite. The music along with the emotional weight of the scene leadin to the turning point was soo good. I’m sure there are new scenes in sumeru and Fontaine that are just as good but until then

I just find your channel and enjoy your reaction and keep up the good work and can't wait to see more of your reaction

For me, my favourite cutscene was Lantern Rite

17:50 my favorite scene too. I cried on this scene just purely because of Kazuha 😂

love how the editor also put thoughts in the vid XD

The cutscene with Osial is so emotional and epic, idk, i literally cried when was first time doing it

Fun fact: Unknown God(Asmoday) and Qiqi were voiced by the same va

I really want something like a story quest or event expanding on kazu has and guoros friendship

If this video was made a year after, the Shouki no Kami vs traveller scenes would 100% be here

I guess the Signora scene isn't really epic as much as it is just bone chilling. It's a terrifying moment that leaves you speechless in fear rather than epicness. But i do agree with switching some scenes around in different spots. Other than that, pretty great trip down memory lane with some of these scenes!

The fact that this story started from Finding your sister cuz unknown god took her(aether pov) And you got freinds from monsdadt To international country fixing and world war to stop a country from destroying the kingdom of gods And you realized that your sibling is with the enemy cuz they want to change teyvat Since the new teaser got released Genshin feels so different

The encounter with the Unknown God is definitely my top 1. That scene convinced me enough to play this game in the long run.

Thoma's cutscene should've been at least one place higher up. Thoma is, for all intents and purposes, Just Some Guy, and it makes the already hype "I Will Fight A God for my friend's sake" moment even hype-r.

"Perilous trail" quest is hands down best cutscenes for me, there was nothing more intense desparate and heartbreaking than that.

9:15 Was anyone else waiting for Paimon to attack Raiden in this cutscean? That'd've been so funny.

I actually forgot about some of these….it’s so long since I saw them.

Kazuha is #1 for me. "There will always be those who dare to brave the lightning's glow," is one of the best written quotes from the game. Electro is eternity. It is an unstoppable force of the Shogun. It's akin to saying "There will always be those who rebel against oppression." Then there's Kazuha's story with his friend who died to that same attack. Kazuha was too late to do anything but came just in time to know his friend died. Now he sees it again with the Traveler and not only saves his friend, not only stops the most unstoppable attack in the world, but fulfills his friend's wish.

Thanks for reacting to the video if you want to react to the new one i can send you the without dubbed one :D

The chasm scene of Fantastic compass...best...😁😍

the traveler saving thomas vison is it just me that is reminded if domain expansion from jujutsu kaisen

I remember I went into the cutscene so unaware that I had a half electro half hydro team at the time. Not even fully built obviously. It took me half an hour to get her down and not die

I also wish they included the second vision in kazuhas design

I just know my top three favorites are 3) Kazuha vs the Shogun 2) 2.7 Archon Quest 1) First Lantern Rite. I think the first lantern rite ost is more nostalgic than the second (even though I wasn’t there to play it and had to watch it on KZfaq). That’s the kind of cutscene that makes me wanna say “yep free game btw”

I'm glad that you love Diluc until now cuz some streamers i know they hated him for no reason ❤️

omg idk why, but I started legit crying at the kazu vs. raiden scene...

The reason Ittos is only an honorable mention is because compared to the other feats all he really did is crush a boulder

I think we can all agree that Kazuha is the mc after the traveler

love that classic youtuber face in the thumbnail 👌

The time in the trailer with the sword Raiden pulled out from her, yk was a game changer. The community named her Inazuman Ying'er after her leak and completely eradicated that title with Booba Sword after seeing that part in the trailer. I couldn't dtop laughing at how fast the community's perception of Raiden changed.

I would have to say the perilous trail end cutscene is one of the best in the entire game

22:16 Traveller: "Dont worry I got this!" Paimon in distance: "No you dont!" Narrator: "She didnt."

Nobody realizing that Raiden deflects Thomas spear AND sends Travelers UNCONSCIOUS body flying in one swing

No way the Perilous Trail cutscene isn't put at the number 1 spot (Unfortunate that this list was already uploaded before)

Think that the perilous trail ending cutscene was pretty epic too. It wasn't out when that video was made tho

I didn't noticed the dendro visions one the statue the first time

"We need an anime" well Bran in the past, I have good news for you.

I'm not sure if anyone already said this before, but something to note about the Jade chamber getting destroyed, did you know? 17:11 when you slow down that animation of it getting destroyed, it actually blows up with three Diamonds and finally shows like... two cubes?? and then finally blows up in flames! But what's very odd is those two mentioned, cause how could anyone survive that explosion and come out unschathed... unless Paimon used her power once more secretly?! Just a fun note to mention, so good job with the reactions Bran and I can tell Bob is having a hard time editing some videos, what with the Manga video coming and some other videos coming, It's kinda selfish of me to ask, but I... could I ask for a vlog of the Doki Doki literature club in this channel or a video about that stream from the Subathon? I really want to watch it and I don't want it to be gone in 2 months... thank for reading all the way and hope it's not too much to ask~

Me too. I'm not even a big fan of Kazuha but that was my best scene as well in the game. Got very emotional on that one.

it is a crime that the yun jin singing scene is not even a honourable mention

All cutscenes with Raiden Shogun are my favorite

AGREED!! MY FAVORITE CUTSCENE KAZUHA BLOCKING THE MUSOU NO HITOTACHI!!

Imo Signora's execution is at the top, no diff
