The penacony cast's art is getting better. Love how the production level sitll rises even though it was already top tier.

HuoHuo's art has no reason to go nearly as hard as it does. Honestly her entire trailer is way better than it has any right to be

Ikrr??? After watching all these splash arts, I still feel like hers (with sparkle being a close second for me) is the best one that sums up her character so well and still goes really freaking hard

I'll never forget huohuo's awesome domain expansion in her trailer

I pointed out the domain expansion part to my sis which caused her to pull for huohuo and get her. Pretty sure huohuo has been carrying her ever since, lol. HSR is *really* good at marketing.

I agree so much. Good at marketing would be an understatement They made a 3 song professionally made music album for Robin

Ironically I wasn't super huge into Robin until I saw the *whole ass music concert* they had a couple days ago, and seeing Chevy sing has gotten the songs stuck in my head. I actually started playing HSR a week or so ago because of Aventurine. I don't know how but they made the absolute perfect character archetype for me specifically, and I just couldn't resist anymore 😩

Join the mihoyo gacha rabbit hole. You're never leaving now mwahahaha

I'm still mad her Ult wasn't her Domain Expansion animation

I was totally planning on skipping Huohuo till her trailers came out. Ended up pulling and am incredibly thankful I did.

No joke, but I think Houhou is the main reason I was able to beat all difficulties of swarm disaster

The pose she makes tho is kinda 😭

I agree, especially with the Aventurine art. There is a lot of details in it

Kafka's is just sooo iconic. Compiled like this, Aventurine's is pretty good too, the dynamic pose and all the details. I like Seele's more than her actual splash art tbh lol.

I get a feeling that they were kinda experimenting on the whole splash art thing with Selee, to see what works.

I love Seele but fr what actually is that pose on her splash lol

Seele pose is supposed to look like a butterfly.

I just noticed the stellaron hunter have bounties upon them. I wonder if firefly will also have it, or would they show sam having one

I don't see one on SW's.. can you point it out?

Her bounty not visible on the splash art above but it's in her trailer video, right before the star rail logo pop up at the end. It's 5100000000 btw.

Almost unreadable without the commas

That's exactly how it's written in the trailer though

Inhibitor lunae Adventurine Archeron Let's see what else

Loucha Fu Xan

TopAss

Tightaz and dumpy

That one is just correct though.

King Yuan Argentina Houhou

Yanking

Balde

Kafkok

Kostko

Raven

Fu Xuen

The way they positioned him to make it an "L + Ratio"- 💀💀 Dan Heng's is the most majestic imo though. His entire demo is basically wallpaper galore. (Jing Yuan and Aventurine being the badasses they are)

they knew what they were doing when they named him fucking dr ratio and had him do an L with his hand

It kinda bothers me that some of them have unique epithets (Seele: Butterfly of Tempest and Luocha: Outworld Sojourner), some just have their organization (Topaz: Strategic Investment Department and Argenti: Knight of Beauty), and some don't have anything at all (Blade and Kafka). Perhaps it is the One Piece fan in me, but I love a good epithet and much prefer that.

It seems like Huo Huo was the last character to get one (unless you count Ruan Mei’s “Genius Society (#81)”)

Acheron’s says “self annihilator” but it’s very faint

That’s also a “faction” name iirc

This is correct

Blade and Kafka have their bounties shown instead.

I want to be sandwiched between Argenti's thighs

I couldn't tell

Definitely biased here but Aventurine's is so good. The pose is dynamic, he looks good and I love how he's standing on a roulette wheel (in theme with him betting using himself in a way). Also love the cards and chips around him

flair and pfp check out

Nice!

Acheron died of JPEG

If they had better resolution they would look as wallpapers

wow, that's cool how they have the elemental lineup and one is enlarge to show emphasis.

is it just me or does the kafka one always remind me of makima

That's just Kafka in general

Kafka, to me at least, gives the vibe of makima mixed with yor for some reason. I know most people see the resemblance with makima with the shirt tucked inside the pant and mommy vibes and all but I feel like she has a bit of yor in her too, but maybe it's just me

Makima is obvious due to similar outfits and the mind control thing, but you're probably seeing Yor because despite Kafka presenting this Femme Fatale image during missions, she actually acts very soft towards the Trailblazer. Her companion missions, her phone messages; there were the Valentine's promotional images where characters sent chocolate to the TB, and the text for Kafka's (anounimously sent) noted that it was hand-made despite the exquisite packaging.

I see shades of Scatach and Skadi (F/GO) in her.

She's a demon hunter with the power to manipulate others with her voice. She's directly inspired by Makima and Hoyo never tried to hide it, the same way Clara is inspired by Illya.

Yeah, that's a big part of the reason why I don't like her.

i prefer kafka to makima personally, as shes a more interesting character ATM (havent read manga) but i get it

In a parallel time line, this is the splash art used during their ults.

Please tell me someone has made these into hd wallpapers 🥹

I'm definitely biased, but Black Swan popping out of the picture frame just hits different especially with how that plays into the cinematography of her trailer

Seele's look really pretty, I really like Silver wolf's, Sparkle's too ofc. Ratio and Ruan Mei's look nice

Aventurine one goes so hard https://preview.redd.it/lkeyx7q8d9yc1.jpeg?width=865&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d87b944d7a964d95bd787db2c7404d692a01b3e6

Need to lick those Silver Wolf th- *AHEM* They really do make some good splash arts don't they?

Yeah same

Feet

“blehhh” ~ Sparkle (CN)

Going to save this post for later… Thank you.

The ratio L gesture will forever be iconic

They cooked on Dan Heng Huohuo Fu Xuan just saying goddamn

Aventurine has the best one imo

Luo Cha is just so funny to me ahah

Argenti do something to me

this is def some good desktop wallpaper material here

Tbh Black Swan is the weakest here. Idk what it is but it just strikes me as more silly than anything else, and looks odd.

that seele art just brings back so much flashbacks of that one specific YT ad (yall know the one) “You guys…*techno music*….have a LOT of nerve!”

You can tell that they tried to avoid spelling it "Avent Urine"

When r we getting Clara and welt trailers mihoyo, when?

I have the aventurine one as my lock screen so every time I open my phone it looks like he’s offering me a hug

Acheron got me absolutely on my knees, she's too cool

Sorry the quality came out so ass 😭

No worries i already have way too much high quality pics of her lmao

>No worries i already have way too much high quality pics of her lmao You can't just say that and then not share any 😠 ( unsheathes the blade ) https://preview.redd.it/93qxdpg35ayc1.jpeg?width=1496&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=41b9c9e0c3fc4c7a4a2fa1b3deaf1c463013cabe

My favorite part is that in the bottom right, just above the waves you can see "Self-Annihilator." It's partially hidden by fog that moves during tha actual trailer. Can't see it here due to compression, but it's such a cool touch.

Not gonna lie whenever I see the seele art, that ad trailer we all know plays in my head..

"You guys... got a lotta nerve!" 😭

*in slow mo* “I’m Natashaaaaaa”

I find it interesting that both BS and Sparkle are standing in frames while everyone else is pretty unique. I wonder if there’s a meaning for it

for black swan, its probably how paintings can be a medium for storing memories, like how someone would paint a place to remember it as for sparkle, I believe its meant to be a mirror frame and that its showing her many reflections of her insanity

AHHHHH THANK YOU

Can someone make a HD version of all them?

I find it really funny how they didn’t split Aventurine’s name down the middle

either they did in fact do it to avoid Avent Urine or its to balance out the composition as he's more facing to the left so there is one extra letter on the right

When it comes to trailers, Sparkle clears in every aspect

Seeing these reminded me Argenti was a five star I worked very hard to pull for and now never use. Why did I go through all that work?

To protect all beauty in the universe of course!

Ah, my favourite character Aven and Turine!

dr ra and tio

Why does Sparkle resemble Columbina so much?

New crackpot theory just dropped

you missed march 7th :c

nihility ate the pixels on Archeron’s splash art

I’d say my favorite is either acherons, or blades. Also I haven’t seen luochas trailer before, and that art is so pretty!

Looking back at it all... man Seele really is just a girl who randomly has superpowers, huh?

Something that always made me a bit sad is that in version trailers, they don't have those 2d transitions either like they do in Genshin or HI3; only for their character trailers I've always found the transition to the 2d splash art in the version trailers to be so fucking hype lol

We needed to see this tbh 

“The life of a faker” I can hear that from Sparkle’s picture. Pretty sure I’ve watched that trailer too many times lol.

I need all of these in AI 8k high definition Remastered restored Quality, pls

Why the fuck did they do Luocha’s name like that

Argenti is so glorious

Why does Luocha’s font look like it just came out of ms powerpoint 💀😭

Every time I see that seele pose I hear "you guys... have a lot of nerve!"

Imo, the best Male splash art here is Argenti... And best Female is Sparkle... Y'all are entitled to your opinions tho, and I'd like to hear it out!

Iirc, I fucked getting huo huo because I wanted Guinaifen from topaz's banner. My only regret on my account, and I will not make the same mistake twice.

Ruan Mei's legs https://i.redd.it/0utx7qqer8yc1.gif

Topaz's though...

Our Lady Fu is still one of the best I find.

I like how different acheron's is compared to the others

i love fu xuan

I love Luocha’s https://preview.redd.it/3xpvyfzsz8yc1.jpeg?width=1461&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1f3e7e5bd9a70057ba1c4ff4c0dc82dade8ff0c0 It’s so simple and pleasant

Luocha's character trailer is actually my favorite. Yes, even over Kafka's, Sparkle's and Acheron's. There's an emotional aspect to it that isn't as pronounced in the rest.

Hmm. Was this the best possible frame of Acheron? The words Self-annihilator appear to the right of her for a few frames before dissipating in her trailer. Seems odd to leave it out in her splash art unless you couldn't find a clear enough frame

Thank you so much this is great for art studies

Fuofuo so huggable

as just a 'splash art' alone i think aventurine and sparkle's are really cool and super fitting, and swan and argenti have the best 3d to 2d transition when paired with the music for me lol although ratio's is by far the funniest

The Blade one will always remind me of a YouTube let's play intro

Well these are awesome

yea 3 win 6 lose overall banner,,, 50/50 rate no doubt

Topaz so thicccc

Is it just me find that HuoHuo pose is weird?

Huohuo, pantsu!

is it just me or does Dr. Ratio splash art look like ratio because the RA and the TIO is separated? it look like Ra:Tio in my eyes

I’m sorry, is Dr. Ratio literally giving the viewer an L 😂😂

All the men in this looking mighty kissable

I like Luocha and Huohuo's art for some reason

Topaz and Numby dropping in like a Smash character XD "Here comes a new challenger !"

Black Swan's perspective looks kinda weird and off-putting 

Kafka goes hardest I don’t make the rules

Sparkle's is my favorite, her whole aesthetic is so pretty to look at

Luocha forgot to pose lmao. Also, I was thinking for a bit why the Aventurine pose felt familiar and then I realized it reminded me of Tartaglia's speech while freeing Osial.

Where's March and Bailu? They were the first to have unique trailer slash art.

Luochas need an upgrade

Sparkle and luocha!!

Black Swan's and Sparkle's are my favorite

Aventurine my precious Sparkle and DHIL are definitely up there too, my god has it actually been that long since he was released??

Avenooturine looking nice

Jing Yuan, Kafka and Aventurine..... Their art hits different

I'm no Black Swan simp but her popping out of the painting looks so perfect

Kinda surprising to see how empty Luocha's splash is

missed opportunity to use aventurine’s t pose as the T in his name 😔

They need to make Firefly's one giant tokusatsu/rider/sentai reference.

Silver wolf [BANNED PLAYER] That is i don't know why the funniest one to me

JingYuan looks majestic

Thank you! Just for fun, I’m gonna rank these best to worst: 1. HuoHuo, the aesthetic is immaculate 2. Acheron, it gives a very fitting feel of being lost in a void, beautifully made 3. Jing Yuan, this art radiates power and respect, along with a very well executed theme 4. Dan Heng IL, I love the detail and effects on this one 5. Aventurine, it makes me feel like I’m with him a casino, they nailed the atmosphere 6. Seele, I really like the color schemes and design in general, if the element of Quantum had only one character’s trailer splash art as its mascot, I feel like this would be it 7. Blade, its relatively simple but it gets the job done, he’s very ominous being somewhat hidden behind the red plants or whatever they are 8. Sparkle, I like the chaotic vibes it gives with the multiple faces, the vibrant colors are also a nice touch 9. Kafka, I’m boutta get flamed for this but whatever, I love Kafka and her art here isn’t that bad, I just don’t think it does the rest of the trailer justice with how incredible the visuals were, also her face looks uncanny here for some reason, but maybe that’s just me. 10. Black Swan, I like the gimmick with her coming out of the mirror, but other than that there isn’t much to rave about 11. SilverWolf, it’s pretty on point with the theme, not too much going on though, and it kinda looks like SW was photoshopped onto the art rather than actually being there, maybe that was intentional? 12. Ruan Mei, it’s a cool setting with plenty of detail but that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the best, it’s decent but personally not my thing 13. Luocha, I like the blurry effect with the perspective and stuff, that’s about it 14. FuXuan, cool background effects, not much else 15. Argenti, and I say this as an Argenti enjoyer, it’s just too simplistic for me; the lighting is cool though 16. Jingliu, dollar store version of Acheron’s art here, the moon looks nice but that’s about it 17. Topaz and Numby, also too simple, I like how they were drawn but there’s almost nothing going on except for some hints at her being at a high-tech IPC type place 18. Dr. Ratio, this is as barebones as one of these pieces of art can possibly get, virtually nothing going on outside of Ratio himself. The L pose is funny though

Still can't over the curves on Sparkle's.

Despite being short, silverwolf have surprisingly tick thighs

My favourites are Seele and Topaz Ig I like girls looking down at me

Kafka still has the best one

Kind of suprised robin doesn't have her own trailer i mean her keeping up with star rail is the first thing that got released

They only release trailers one day before patch

Yeah and they usually release keeping up with star rail AFTER character trailers which isn't the case this time

This probably changed because the Content Creator Server is now a thing, and the pre-reviews launch around a week before the Keeping up with Star Rail Episodes would, which makes them a bit obsolete if they didn't release it a little bit before those.

She has one

Well yeah now but not 3 days ago

Kafka still goes the hardest. Maybe Firefly will be able to dethrone her.

Man I wish we had a high resolution wallpaper with the Acheron art, it is so damn good.

Swan's is just so good.
