        Hoyoverse x Ufotable

        The gacha money is being put to good use I see.

        [–]UserNombresBeHard 22 points23 points  (7 children)

        Can someone explain what this crossover means? I don't know what Ufotable is, Google says it's an animation studio, but what does it mean when they are now working with Genshin?

        [–]Ninefl4mes 62 points63 points  (0 children)

        Google says it's an animation studio

        That's pretty much it. They're an animation studio whose track record is nothing short of spectacular. Their most known works include Demon Slayer, as well as several anime adaptations of Type-Moon's products like The Garden of Sinners, Fate/Zero, and Fate/Stay Night. Basically, what they touch tends to turn to gold so this collaboration has a pretty good chance to give us an amazing Genshin anime.

        [–]MichiruMatsushima 9 points10 points  (4 children)

        I don't know what Ufotable is

        Just watch a clip from one of their shows and you'll understand the hype: https://old.reddit.com/r/anime/comments/m602ls/berserker_vs_alter_saber_amazing_fight_heavens/

        [–]HelpImAHugeDisaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

        Also the Alter Saber vs Rider is definitely an amazing scene to watch

            Pretty cool since I have a friend who is not a gamer but is very interested with Genshin's story once I showed them some of the characters and their background.

            Really? I figured it was inevitable, considering the sheer hype and popularity behind it. And the premise just feels really suited to an anime. Enjou later in the livestream lampshades it, it's basically an isekai.

            [–]Custom_sKing_SKARNER 11 points12 points  (0 children)

            I thought too but like in 2 years from now on. This is a huge surprise for me.

            [–]GhostZeeThigh Highs for Life 88 points89 points  (0 children)

            BTW they've been teasing us for a while, all those 2D trailers were testing waters. Since the response was generally positive so they're probably announcing it officially that they're actually working on it...

            [–]aulixindragonz34 14 points15 points  (4 children)

            It crossed my mind but i thought it will take at least 4-5 years since launch to get it since thats what needed for fgo to get its tv anime adaptation

            [–]you_th 4 points5 points  (3 children)

            Fate was already an established anime franchise b4 fgo was a thing tho.

            [–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (2 children)

            Fate was a lightnovel WAY before it was an anime tho, so it's still a case of a "game" becoming an anime much later it's lifespan.

            [–]KandaLeveilleur 2 points3 points  (1 child)

            It’s a Visual Novel, not a Light Novel. Visual Novels are those CYOA-esque(but different) video games, while light novels are basically Japanese modern fiction.

            [–]TheSealTamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

            And then there’s there me who after the cutscene with Osial my first though was “damn genshin has some pretty dope moments, this would look great animated, I hope they make an anime of it at some point”

            I’m sure it would have some very wide, mainstream appeal amongst the masses, like Demon slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, My hero, etc. Theres a lot if cool “action anime moments” that would look amazing animated.

            [–]usedchloroform mansplain-manipulate-manslaughter 171 points172 points  (3 children)

            I cannot believe we’re getting an animated series collaboration with Ufotable. I still remember how there was a thread in this sub where people were discussing which anime studio would be best fit to animate Genshin and I said Ufotable.

            I cannot wait, the visuals in the concept trailer is astounding.

            [–]neverforgetbillymays 40 points41 points  (2 children)

            Couldn’t ask for a better studio to do this world. Unreal

            [–]usedchloroform mansplain-manipulate-manslaughter 23 points24 points  (1 child)

            You would not believe the gasp I let out when the word ufotable appeared on the screen.

            [–]neverforgetbillymays 18 points19 points  (0 children)

            Same. I’m still in disbelief. That’s the absolute pinnacle of animators. And there was no whisper of anime on top of that. What a crazy announcement

            [–]LeXam92Surrender to the purple 276 points277 points  (31 children)

            Not only is it an anime, it's an UFOTABLE anime, that shit is going to be lit af, just remember the 2nd season of Demon Slayer

            [–]KaoSuSui 139 points140 points  (9 children)

            I cant wait to see childe battle animated

            [–]Ebo87 67 points68 points  (7 children)

            OH FUCK YES, with their water tech... my god that will be beautiful.

            But we probably won't see that until a second season. Notice they've only shown stuff from the first region here, so I'm thinking we won't go to Liyue until a 2nd season.

            Honestly I would be okay with them doing one cour a year for each region, I think that would be an okay schedule for Ufotable, and I'm sure Hoyoverse would also be happy with that.

            Of course once you start to go deeper they might need more than just 12-13 episodes per region, but it's way too early to even think about that right now.

            [–]howturnshavetabled 50 points51 points  (6 children)

            That’s good because I will need to physically recover from animated Diluc and kaeya in season one before they show us zhongli

            [–]Ebo87 20 points21 points  (5 children)

            Totally-not-Batman will certainly make a lot more fans after S1 of this anime.

            [–]howturnshavetabled 19 points20 points  (3 children)

            Not gonna lie I screamed louder then I should have just when they showed diluc’s animated card in the card game. This man is canonically the most handsome man in mondstadt and finally ufotable will do him justice

            [–]Ebo87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

            Oh he 100% will be in the first animated preview for Season 1 of the show, after all Diluc is a very big part of that first chapter of the story.

                  [–]ChronoHax 16 points17 points  (5 children)

                  Now that u mention it, makes sense for ufotable to adapt another gacha game, but yea tbf fate probably have more source material considering it was mostly text ( i dont play fgo btw), i wonder what story will they animate first for genshin

                  [–]ZweisteinHereBiggest Xinyan Fan (REAL) 22 points23 points  (2 children)

                  Pretty sure this is Ufo's first gacha. They adapted Fate's original IPs and KnK (Garden of Sinners), never FGO.

                  [–]hykilo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

                  Actually they did Touken Ranbu before, with an movie announced in... 2016...

                    Hmm I wonder if they will do each region as a seasonal thing

                    [–]Monsieur_Onion 24 points25 points  (6 children)

                    Hopefully they rewrite the traveler or just make an entirely new storyline.

                    [–]kibrsifr 13 points14 points  (0 children)

                    I want a prequel. Would be nice to see the old gods in action. Modern Teyvat is post-apocalyptic, it would be very cool to see every structure still standing and everyone still alive.

                    [–]SillyEnder 33 points34 points  (3 children)

                    Hopefully a darker story this time

                      I dont think so. As long as they keep the animation quality up, we fans wont let it drown

                      [–]ProdigyRiN 2 points3 points  (1 child)

                      I assume you mean the GE anime, but the problem with that was that ufo had to create an entirely new mc and mesh him into a game where the main character has practically no lines. Aether/Lumine already have a set personality, and there's dialogue options in the game so it won't be as difficult making their character.

                      Of all the collabs, Ufotable was the least expected let alone having an anime. I've been suggesting that for 2 years now and finally it came true, idc about the anniversary rewards, this announcement is the best reward they have given, i just wish it won't take long.

                        Fucking ufotable is picking it up too. Animation is gonna be legendary (unfortunately even though I didn't think it would happen OPM S3 definitely isn't going to be them now)

                        [–]Ebo87 18 points19 points  (2 children)

                        They are super booked right now, probably for the next decade with this project. They have Demon Slayer, which obviously they will see to completion, and from what I understand that's at least two more seasons. There's also other Type Moon stuff they are working on, that Mahoyo movie is next and I would be ready to bet money that a new Tsukihime anime is also coming later down the line. So chances are if it's not Demon Slayer, a Type Moon project or Genshin Impact, Ufotable will not have the time to touch it.

                        [–]the_fbi_is_disgusted 7 points8 points  (1 child)

                        Yeah I knew they weren't gonna pick up OPM since they're busy but there's like 3 or 2 studios which I can see picking it up and living up to the manga. Bones would be our best choice (s1 animators too but the ones that animated the good parts have left madhouse iirc). Maybe I can see KyoAni pick it up but the only thing I've seen from them is Dragon Maid, the animation is really good but I wouldn't know how they can do a constant fight animation sequence for 12 eps straight.

                        [–]Ebo87 6 points7 points  (0 children)

                        Yep, Bones are probably the number 1 choice for most fans, I'm sure, as some of the people who worked on S1 of OPM are now at Bones anyway. And now that Bones will finish Mob Psycho 100, they might have an opening for something new.

                        KyoAni absolutely can handle action, but I feel like OPM is really not their style. I would also add A-1 Pictures, but I also selfishly would rather they make Nier: Automata instead (specifically the 86 team).

                        Studio Wit would also be an out there choice, and I'm sure one many fans would like. But yes, Bones does feel like everyone's number 1 choice right now for OPM S3.

                        I belive it may be related with manga. Even though they showed us the twins. Manga really has some great content that most of the players havent saw. So making it anime would be cool.

                        Making it about the main story would be an all around bad decision anyway IMO.

                        We know they'd go with Aether Traveler which would just be further spitting on Lumine players when they already ignore her in game tutorials and trailers. I don't think having your big anime project alienate half the playerbase more than they already do is a good idea.

                        Best case scenario is that it's a prequel where we learn what the MC has forgotten, when the twins were in Teyvat together.

                        Yup because Genshin is divided by Acts so they can plan each season with one region. And Ufotable only does seasonal anime I think.

                          Genshin Impact

                          • Was originally worked upon as a spinoff to Honkai Impact
                          • Started as a manga/webcomic
                          • Continued as a game
                          • Ended up as an anime

                          Trailer looks amazing that Dragonspine shot especially, mostly scenery and no action so I assume it's still a long way before the anime releases. The Statue of Seven was cgi which is kinda scary but I have full faith in ufotable!

                          Ufotable always has heavy cgi in their shows but that's not necessarily a bad thing. They're the masters of cgi usage in anime

                          For them to be announcing an anime with Ufotable of this quality, that means that this project has been in production since last year. Just this trailer takes months to produce let alone a whole episode of this quality.

                          If this anime is canon, then I hope they will have a small prologue of the twins before their arrival on Teyvat, and more of their interaction with the Uknown God. I am so excited for this that I screamed when they showed the trailer.

                          According to my sources, they will have completed season 2 of their animation project before the Switch port of Genshin Impact releases.

                          I'll take either but a series would be amazing

                          One of the rare cases where we say that "This looks amazing! It should be an anime/movie/tv series!" and it actually comes to fruition.

                          We thought the same about the Overwatch movie cutscenes. So much luck on that front. And we got Arcane when we saw all the cinematics for LoL.

                          So it excites me to no end to see this actually happening.

                          [–]Eredbolg- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

                          A genshin anime, not sure if to be excited or scared, this will probably go like Tales of Zestiria, there's just not a very good main story line for Genshin to put an anime together, but ufotable does great animation but nowadays it seems good animations is everything on anime, not the story.

                          They probably release 1 episode every 3 or 4 months, I cant see them releasing weekly episodes.

                          Damn, as an anime lover I'M HYPED!!! Question is, will we get more lore in the anime? I kinda think they could expand the lore a bit in the anime, and thus avoid info-dumping too much in-game. That's would be cool!!

                          Anyway, can't wait. The animation looks amazing already.

                          I hope they are able to get the original voice actors from the game.

                          Would also be nice to see some episodes on characters already deceased in game. Like all the original Yakshas hanging out or protecting the land in their time period.

                          Normally, anime adaptations of games kinda suck. But this. This is giving me studio ghibli pixar walking with dinosaurs vibes. Wonder if they will stick with the game plot or do something else. I knew ufotable was good but I didn't know they were THIS good.

                          that's weird if Paimon is in it and both travelers are together. It would have to be at least 500 years before the start of the game, and neither of them should meet Paimon.

                          So the story is same as the main story line about finding sister right?

                          Since it's a long-term project then most likely, though I'm interested in what kind of changes they'll make. I assume the overall story beats will be the same but the execution will probably differ a lot since Mondstadt and Liyue were relatively short

                          I really hope they tweak the story a bit because a large part of the archon quests in Mondstadt and Liyue are padded with fetch quests that doesn't feel like they will translate well in anime.

                          Really hope the story turns out great.

                            I’m wondering who the MC will be? Lumine or Aether?

                            Hoping ufotable’s work on this doesn’t delay Demon Slayer.

                            While I had a hunch it was going to be an anime from the start, I was starting to hope after a minute of scenery that it was going to be an nature-style documentary of flora and fauna of teyvat lol.
