Zenless Zone Zero with a side of salt

The animation in this game looks fucking awesome, so full of bouncy energy. No, this is not a joke about certain physics.

"i find the monotone characters a bit dull" your favorite princess is rosalina edit: i feel like i should say this is a joke since i didnt expect anyone to actually see it

Someone mentioned that Billy moves around like he's from Hotel Transylvania and I can't see it any other way now.

If THIS was how 3D Anime looked, NOBODY would complain except for the purists.

Billy is DRIPPING with chaotic Deadpool energy, and I'm here for it. Also, if you like Soul Hound, you'd probably enjoy the game it's based on, Mr. Driller.

The "bouncy" animation style found in most Hollywood animated movies, like Hotel Transylvania, combined with an anime art style is incredible!

Yes, Scott, I'm sure you loved studying the "bounciness" of some of the characters.

Whoa just watching these intro clips the characters seem so full of life and not stiff its honestly really impressive

The first time ive genuinely considered playing a hoyo game, besides honkai impact. The combo of bouncy animation, hoyo's signature fan-service, gameplay style, fan-service, mini-games, and did I mention the fan-service?

Dunno if Hoyo still doesn't do this but for the love of god, either archive story related events or don't make story elements a limited time event I don't care about missing the rewards but there isn't much reason for new players to play a game with a major lean on story, and then tell them they can't enjoy all of the story while reminding them they missed character introductions that came from a one time 3 week event

I saw a clip of this game's cutscenes, and it was jaw-droppingly good animation. The animators worked hard and CARED about what they were doing. It's insane.

"I find the monotone characters a bit dull." As someone who likes monotone, I'd be willing to bet (or be proven wrong) it's the shitty writing for most of said characters that bugs you. A lot of writers make monotone characters then fail to make up for the inherent deficit in intrigue with more than maybe a single other trait. Also, you advocated for maid characters, their main shtick is being efficient and composed. And let's not forget a certain princess you like (same).

"Oh, and add a lot more maid characters, you can't go wrong with maid characters." Truer words have never been spoken

From what I’ve seen from the rest of the Genshin/HSR community regarding this game, they all seem to mirror your opinions here pretty closely. Animation and characters are great, minus the male MC being kind oof boring, combat is good, the TV world is not great and could use some love since it’s the main content of the game. People are a little concerned but enthusiastic because it just looks incredible and the animation is top tier.

The animations of this game look great, almost would want them to make a CC character just to see her in this style

I think hoyo saw genshin and their Honkai series and thought to them selfs, "Do you know what we failed to do on our past games, we didn't give the gals azur lane levels of jiggle".

I played the first Hoyoverse game Honkai. I liked it, but the emphasis of THIS IS A MOBILE GAME was getting to be waay too much for me. Same reason why I havent played Star Rail.... As you stated, this animation is top tier. Its crazy fluid looking full of energy and just seriously fun to look at. If they did an animation series, "Hoyo... Hint hint, Do this." I would seriously watch it, even if it was kind of bad. To see the character interactions with this kind of animation and style would just be a lot of fun. If hoyo did make an animation, I seriously doubt it would be bad considering the effort they put out in these games. Its just a shame they choose to do the mobile market.

My god the animations are so good, they all ooze personality and charm.😺

Another excellent salt! I'll definitely be checking it out, it seems like there's been a lot of love put into it by the developers!
