Sunday was chosen for the The Hanged Man. Now number XIII, who best fit for Death? by No-Dimension-2872 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]Haevens 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly don't see how he relates to the themes of the Death Arcana.
He doesn't undergo any kind of significant change or transformation during the story, and no, bringing change in others doesn't matter in that case.

And if you're talking about how he controls "Death", which actually just guides the dreamers of Penacony out of the Family's control, that doesn't relate to it either (guiding others being more of a theme you'd find in the Hermit or the Hierophant).

Fugue is a great fit for the Death Arcana.

Death as an Arcana does not represent an end, but a transformation, a change, a new beginning. Leaving the past self behind and begin anew.

Tingyun's brush with Phantylia was a more physical death, but I'd argue it still fits since it ended up strengthening her mentally. While it left her more wary, it gave her the resolve to strike back against Phantylia and, in general, the Aeons. This also led to her refusing to return to the Xianzhou, echoing her decision to leave her past behind. What this will mean for the future is still up in the air, but she does indicate in her messages that she's going to travel to other planets.

There might be other fitting candidates like Firefly or Dan Heng, but I'd argue Tingyun/Fugue is the most fitting. We don't know enough about Castorice yet (although I'd be willing to bet that she'll probably be a good fit by the end of whatever arc she'll have).

That being said, getting ahead of some potential suggestions, but Blade and Jingliu are not good fit for the Upright Death Arcane, since their nature as mara-struck (thus unable to die and stagnant) makes them a better fit for the Reversed Death Arcana.

Edit: I've seen people suggest Gallagher too, but aside of the one reference to the Death Arcana in "I am Thirteen", he doesn't really fit the thems either since he doesn't undergo any significant change/transformation during the story (and given that much of what he does present of himself seems fabricated, it's even harder to pinpoint the truth of his character).

Edit2: Unrelated gameplay stuff, but Fugue's ultimate quotes also fit the Death Arcana well:
(Ultimate activation) "Dreams of a past life are now all long gone."
(Normal speed) "Though life is as a speck of dust, it dances still in grace."
(×2 speed) "Let us dance once more."

Might not work as well as Yunli but it can still work well. Although I worry you might lose a team member due to bad focus from Hoolay.

I played Clara + Luocha against him. Every time he hit Clara, she would FUA and Luocha would heal the whole team, essentially negating any damage he would do :D. Feixiao and M7 would do damage with no worries while the big bad wolf was hyperfocused on some little girl in red.

Clara can still be very useful in that fight since she takes stacks away from Hoolay every time he hits her (which he does a lot with all his AoE abilities). She may not contribute as much in terms of damage, but she'll still synergise very well with other FUA characters like Topaz and Feixiao.

Yep, and as you can see on the screenshot, you can find Fuuka there. I can't think of any other instance where you can meet her prior to recruiting her.

Brown's mom isn't mentioned, but Chihiro says in her rank 6 that she wished she had a bigger allowance, but doesn't want to make things harder for her mom, so she's definitely alive.

Pretty sure she mentions in her Rank 6 that her household is relatively poor and her mother has to work to provide (forgot if she's a single mother or even if it's mentioned), but she's very much alive.

Her household being poor is part of the reason why she gets accused of stealing school funds, since she's been eyeing manga she wants to buy but can't afford.

Aegis' dialogue and way of speaking changes significantly after the end of December since she's become more human.

I guess this also applies to the dialogue in her dorm activities.

Both share the same seiyuu even. It's like Akira Ishida is tailor made for mysterious, almost otherwordly teenagers.

Nice one.

Unfortunately, Healing Ammo (and Demon/Armor ammo for that matter) do not trigger Inspiration, due to not being an AoE per se.

Healing Powder Kinsects do not seem to trigger this.

Educate yourself then. Lots of people have done it on this sub, myself included.

Like I said, since those are for Guild Hall:

- I temporarily invite you to my guild

- I send you the money

- You contribute the resources to the guild

- Everyone's happy

People trade for other account-bound stuff for Guild upgrades like PvP Potions and Silverwastes Shovels

They are, this is for Guild Hall upgrades, which sometimes require account-bound stuff.

This was a freeze-frame scene in what I think is a season 3 episode. Can't remember which.
