Did Ai-Chan Ruin the Story? – The Meta Storytelling of Honkai Impact 3rd

Did Ai-Chan Ruin the Story? - The Meta Storytelling of Honkai Impact 3rd

It’s safe to say that after Chapter 35, Ai Lambda became “public enemy number one” in the eyes of a lot of Honkai players. Breaking the 4th Wall, caused many varying reactions in the Honkai community: from people being happy because they felt recognized and appreciated by HoYoverse, to others who felt like it ruined the whole story.

This video is an in-depth look at the Meta Storytelling in Honkai Impact 3rd, as well as an analysis of miHoYo/HoYoverse as a company and what kind of games they want to make. I tackle topics such as Ai-chan Lambda, the Captain, and even propose a small theory regarding External Observers in the Honkai Universe and how this is reflected through multiple of their games. Lastly, we’ll take a look at HoYoverse as a company and their intentions behind all the 4th Wall Breaking in Chapter 35.

Please Enjoy!
