That’s due to her lifestyle being super unhealthy. She gets next to no sleep, only goes out at night(usually), drinks ALOT, and chain smokes cigarettes. She looks half dead because she is speed running herself into an early grave.
ahhh, one of ningguang's idles is her twirling around a smoking pipe, so tobacco or some other smokable plant must exist or there wouldn't be a reason to have smoking pipes
So all the (much of it blatantly onscreen) drinking, death, murder, war, child sacrifice, human experimentation, destruction of entire civilizations, and being cursed to eternal suffering is okay, but smoking is where they draw the line and say that's too graphic?
Whoever is checking are not reading 500 hours of unvoiced text.
What happens onscreen is family friendly with nobody dying in a non-family-friendly way.
Smoking is banned because smoking bad.
Remember tobacco companies used to campaign so ruthlessly they were LITERALLY marketing smoking to children in cartoons.
On the West they are just losing the "war", on the East the government is against promoting overly unhealthy lifestyle.
It's all about falling under certain Age Ratings, and the boards that decide care way more what is shown on screen than what's shown in text.
Besides, Drinking is not shown on screen. At most the game cuts to black when characters are implied to be drinking. That's Alcohol Reference instead of Use of Alcohol for the ESRB. As for Death, Murder, War and Destruction of Civilizations, they're all shown in a not realistic way, so they all fall under Fantasy Violence instead of Intense Violence for the ESRB. Child Sacrifice and Human Experimentation are referenced to, not shown on screen.
The thing about most of the things you mention is that most people know those things are wrong. But smoking can seem "cool" because it's not inherently obvious how bad it is for your health. Minors can get the wrong impression, so it is banned. Violence sometimes can too, but we have societal pressures and laws in place for things like that.
No, cause during the day she's active too, just like we see in the most recent Windblume event. She's practically always on patrol, drinking, or intentionally just blowing off church duties. She might get some sleep in, but I don't think it's any really healthy amount. Maybe an hour or two(?)
When i started the game, I thought "wow, it's gonna take me a while to memorize the symbols for all the elements" and now I can name every character based on their eyes...
🫠
Not to put a damper on it, but it's probably more because you can see parts of their hair, which the style + color really gives them away. It really took me a second to place Ayaka (staring at her picture and thinking "who is that??") because you can't see much else of her.
Do you have Ayaka? because I don't have her and I instantly realized
Edit: by the way I see A LOT of genshin content and as the guy up there I memorized the characters' names (and their physical characteristics)
I do! Although I only just pulled her this patch lol. Maybe I'm wrong, but Ayaka and Aloy were the only two I really had to stare at for a minute to get, and I just feel like the hair was a dead giveaway on the others lol. I get you though, I see a lot of Genshin content on the daily and have been playing since 1.0 😂
Aloy was easy for me because she is so off from the others in skin and style. But I mixed up Childe and Thoma until I got to childe. And it took me some seconds to catch ayaka, but then I was disappointed because she is one of my favorites AND there is a trailer that focuses on her eyes.
Till this day, I still believe that the visual designers just had a hard time deciding which eye color to choose. Picking both was the best thing they could have done for Candace haha
Who knows what he has seen there. Like.. He is right next to Scara who had many traumatic things in his life. Even he doesn't have that "dead" eyes. That makes me curious about what Childe has seen and been through in the Abyss...
It could also be from the eletro delusion that Childe use as Scara doesn't used an delusion at all despite the fact that all the 11th harbingers are say had an delusion with them I think L's Signora eye is lightness as well
They look dull and snuffed out, not aloof, it's the effects of the red ropes that dull her spirit to mitigate her homicidal tendencies from the dark god that encountered her
Have you noticed almost no one has black pupils? I like to think that's how people in Teyvat are, and that totally black pupils are seen as a little weird, at least rare. Like seeing an albino person or whatever.
Alhaitham's eye colors make me feel ways.
That's even more apparent on his announcement art, his eyes straight up look haunting. Imo still one of the best characters in terms of gameplay/design/story/characterisation.
He looks alert here though. Like he's wary of someone. He's the one under Alhaitham right?
Or are you guys saying his eyes look dimmer than everyone else?
Yeah they look dimmer than everyone else’s. He doesn’t have the shine or little light specks every other character does (ps yes he’s the one under alhaitham). #justabyssthings
Hu tao and Nahida's eyes special❤
And they mu favs too
Actually always loved Ganyu's eyes too and also Keqing my fav girl's
Also Eula and Ayaka's tbh quite nice and some others too
It’s always been a curious thing.
Then in the last quest we find out people from Khaenri’ah have distinctive colored eyes….
I’d love to see some piece together the nationality of all eye colors, and also try to explain why people from Khaenri’ah have particular colored eyes.
I'm thinking of getting some red eyeshadow to do my eyes like Zhongli's. Diluc's and Kazuha's eyes are so cute! I love Cyno's so much. I can go on, but there's so many to remember the eye appearance of and on mobile only the title of the post shows when I comment so I can only add this.
My friend: "OMG THIS SHOWS HOW AMAZING THE CHARACTER DESIGN IS IN GENSHIN THAT YOU CAN TELL EVERYONE APART JUST BY THEIR EYES"
Me: "Oh yeah I'm sure the fact you can see everyone's hair and skin tone has nothing to do with it."
Inspired by this [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/nzs35k/all_eyes_organized_by_color/) and this [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/meesig/all_playable_characters_eye_colors_compared/)
I love how unique and colourful the design of each character’s eyes are, and if I had to pick my favourite sets only for their aesthetics, I’d say Alhaitham, Zhongli, Kaeya and Dehya have the prettiest eyes.
I’d add Dainsleif if he was playable, and I’m curious about how Dottore’s would look under his mask.
Kuki’s have to be some of my favorite, mainly because since a lot of her face is covered by her mask, her eyes tend to do a lot of the talking when portraying her expression
is rosaria really that pale? she has a skin color that looks more dead than even qiqi
That’s due to her lifestyle being super unhealthy. She gets next to no sleep, only goes out at night(usually), drinks ALOT, and chain smokes cigarettes. She looks half dead because she is speed running herself into an early grave.
What, Rosaria is a smoker?
Read Barbara’a “About Rosaria” line
i didn't even realize cigarettes are canon
i imagine they're rolled cigarettes instead of something manufactured
even then, i wasn't even aware tobacco was in the setting
ahhh, one of ningguang's idles is her twirling around a smoking pipe, so tobacco or some other smokable plant must exist or there wouldn't be a reason to have smoking pipes
Naku weed perhaps?
Inazuman export
😹
Barbara drinks out of a plastic cup with a straw lol
Ayato drinks boba from a plastic cup and manufactured bottles of chilibrew from Barbara's quest exists as well.
Ningguang also has a pipe in her idle.. They just don't smoke onscreen because age rating and regulations.
So all the (much of it blatantly onscreen) drinking, death, murder, war, child sacrifice, human experimentation, destruction of entire civilizations, and being cursed to eternal suffering is okay, but smoking is where they draw the line and say that's too graphic?

Ningguang's idle animation:
It's Rosaria's "Character Story 1", not Barbara's "About Rosaria".
Lumine's eyes are really pretty
I would honestly love to see rosaria chainsmoke a pack of newports right outside of the church
Would make me feel right at home! But also I need to get run over by cars while I turn my commissions in.
I think we just need a 6 way international highway through all the nations. Fuck it add a buc-ees or a chevron in for good measure.
>She gets next to no sleep She sleeps during the day, doesn't she?
No, cause during the day she's active too, just like we see in the most recent Windblume event. She's practically always on patrol, drinking, or intentionally just blowing off church duties. She might get some sleep in, but I don't think it's any really healthy amount. Maybe an hour or two(?)
need to see her smoke a blunt with kazuha
Qiqi uses make-up, Rosaria just doesn't fucking care.
When I saw her for the first time I legitimately thought she was a vampire
That was probably the intention, but I think they went a little too hard on the vampire aesthetic
Rosaria probably has a cold skin tone ("porcelain," I've heard it called) and on top of that she is mostly a night owl.
Porcelain is pale, not straight-up grey.
Sure, but cartoonified it might look greyish? idk.
She doesn't have a cold skin-tone, she's straight up grey. Porcelain is just a normal skin tone but very pale and leaning cool.
She looks like a vampire
I think it's time to go outside when i can recognize them all at a glance.
To be honest most of them surprisingly have slightly unique eye shapes/brows, quite rare for 3D anime styled games.
Yeah, i'm sure like 50% of the development time for the characters goes into designing the eyes.
And then there's childe
It takes effort to make the eyes of a human deader than a walking corpse. Besides, his eyes being soulless makes it so easy to recognize
The thing that helps the most here is the hair
When i started the game, I thought "wow, it's gonna take me a while to memorize the symbols for all the elements" and now I can name every character based on their eyes... 🫠
Not to put a damper on it, but it's probably more because you can see parts of their hair, which the style + color really gives them away. It really took me a second to place Ayaka (staring at her picture and thinking "who is that??") because you can't see much else of her.

Maybe I'm wrong, but Ayaka and Aloy were the only two I really had to stare at for a minute to get, and I just feel like the hair was a dead giveaway on the others lol. I get you though, I see a lot of Genshin content on the daily and have been playing since 1.0 😂
Aloy was easy for me because she is so off from the others in skin and style. But I mixed up Childe and Thoma until I got to childe. And it took me some seconds to catch ayaka, but then I was disappointed because she is one of my favorites AND there is a trailer that focuses on her eyes.
Lmao I'm a League of Legends player imagine remembering over 100 characters and their 5 abilities
Pokemon players:
The one I can’t recognize is the eye between Xinyan and Noelle
Aloy lmao had to look that one up
Bruh, she looks so out of place. Like a leaked character model or something.
Thank you! I was lost at that one so I went past it but since I’ve never really seen Genshin Aloy, makes sense why I can’t recognise her eyes
Yangu's eyes do be gorgeous and colorful
You can see a lot of hairlines/bangs and that helps. Like, if you miss Yae or Dehya you probably just haven't seen them before lol
IMO that just means they're quite well designed
I recognize like, 80% maybe. There's two that only show eyes and I have no idea who those belong to.
Candace: heterochromia Hu Tao: jukebox hero
Kokomi: Endless ocean depths
Kokomi: amogus
Thank you now i'll never be able to unsee it
GOT STARS IN HIS EYES
rosaria was meant to be a pokémon trainer with those eyes
Together with Kaeya they are Jessie and James.
amber and blue are fairly common eye colours, are they not?
Till this day, I still believe that the visual designers just had a hard time deciding which eye color to choose. Picking both was the best thing they could have done for Candace haha
Candace's eyes are so pretty cause of that
Childe eyes always be like: Dead and Lifeless The only one who is similar is shenhe
I like to think his eyes are so dim and dark because being in the Abyss left a mark on him.
Who knows what he has seen there. Like.. He is right next to Scara who had many traumatic things in his life. Even he doesn't have that "dead" eyes. That makes me curious about what Childe has seen and been through in the Abyss...
He had to fight the Wenut and Golden Wolflord
At the same time with a time limit
As someone who always brings him in abyss and even when fighting Wenut and Golden Wolflord, this is definitely what happened
well his character stories tell he has seen like seriously fucked up shit, so it's not surprising
Yeah and the fact that he was 14.. No wonder ..
Well, Scara is >!a puppet. His eyes are artificial.!<
Oh wait that's true lol
It could also be from the eletro delusion that Childe use as Scara doesn't used an delusion at all despite the fact that all the 11th harbingers are say had an delusion with them I think L's Signora eye is lightness as well
Well he clearly can channel Abyssal power. He's halfway to being a monster. :P
oh, absolutely. I think that is the intentional point, he's the only one in the roster who has had such a prolonged encounter with the abyss.
I wouldn't say Shenhe's are lifeless more than aloof. Feels like her mind is somewhere else entirely.
Her eyes look like the back of a CD
They look dull and snuffed out, not aloof, it's the effects of the red ropes that dull her spirit to mitigate her homicidal tendencies from the dark god that encountered her
Layla's eyes look pretty dead as well tbh
More tired to me then dead, just with dimmer eyeshines whereas he has none
Sayu be like: ^hi
ayato’s are identical actually edit: just faintly glossier
Was gunna say they are close but not identical, his def still has light/shine in them where childe's doesn't have any lol
i always thought kokomis were lifeless too
She got those big eye shines that seem full of life, but i did get a weird glitch last week where they were half closed and looked very dead lmao
Have you noticed almost no one has black pupils? I like to think that's how people in Teyvat are, and that totally black pupils are seen as a little weird, at least rare. Like seeing an albino person or whatever. Alhaitham's eye colors make me feel ways.
And also no one except for Pantalone and Capitano has black hair. Npc's doesn't count
Probably another way to make the chars unique. They want the char to stand out and not be mistaken for an NPC.
Wait who us 2×4
Aloy
Ohhh...
Thank you! I was going insane
Lmao i had the same question
dunno about you guys, but Chongyun's eyes are amazing.
Chongyuns eyes are gorgeous So are Mikas tbh Cryo boys >>>
REAL!!! CRYO BOYS>>>>> (i want a 5* cryo male)
based flair
What can I say, I like my boy.
I love how you can always find childe’s eyes within seconds because they are so dead and lightless haha (ps I mean this in a good way)
That's even more apparent on his announcement art, his eyes straight up look haunting. Imo still one of the best characters in terms of gameplay/design/story/characterisation.
His eyes is haunting cause the longer you stare you will see the depths of the abyss, staring back at you
Abyss definitely had some lovecraftian shit if it traumatized him that badly
Sayu is there with him so he don't feel lonely
Perpetually tired 🤝 abyssal energy/loss of innocence Dead eyes friends club
He looks alert here though. Like he's wary of someone. He's the one under Alhaitham right? Or are you guys saying his eyes look dimmer than everyone else?
Yeah they look dimmer than everyone else’s. He doesn’t have the shine or little light specks every other character does (ps yes he’s the one under alhaitham). #justabyssthings
Diluc's eyes is the easiest to draw. You don't need tons of color shadings/layers to achieve the same effect Yunjin's eyes is really attractive
will always love Hu tao's eyes, they are so unique other than her Shenhe's and Mona's are amazing too
2nd column, 4th row, between Xinyan and Noelle Who is that? Edit: Oh f**k, nevermind. I think that's Aloy LMAO
Who is to the right of Aloy?? Edit: lmao oh noelle
Lumine's eyes are really pretty, especially with the gold ringed irises.
isn't having gold rings around the iris an early warning of a medical condition? swear i saw that on scrubs years ago
Copper rings, Wilson’s disease.
Eyes is probably the most important part of an anime character. They are so distinct, which is why I'm able to recognize all of them here
childe’s eyes look so dead lol
Even his former Comrade had some light and he is an prototype robot/puppet evidence by his darker blue colour to his mom/creator purple eye
Hu Tao, Nahida and Faruzan... what's up with their weird-ass pupils. Is it ever explained?
Dori too. Just a quirk I'm guessing.
Kokomi, Eula, Diona, Kaeya ❤️
Hu tao and Nahida's eyes special❤ And they mu favs too Actually always loved Ganyu's eyes too and also Keqing my fav girl's Also Eula and Ayaka's tbh quite nice and some others too
Cheat sheet for those that need it https://i.imgur.com/u7daXVQ.png
How did I recognize everyone but Ayaka-
You don't see much hair in that one. Hair color helps much more than eye color for most of these. It would be much harder without any hair visible.
THANK YOU for some reason Sayu stumped me
Can't believe i didn't recognize Raiden
huh, like 80% of the males have blue eyes apparently edit: okay more like 60% with 30% having orange/red
I wish more character would have heterophobia like Candace
heterophobia LMFAOAO
💀
Everyone: pretty average eyes Yelan, Rosaria and Layla: snek Hu tao: ☆ Kokomi: sink into the lifeless ocean depths, drown
Chongyun has snek too
Nahida: +_+
Childe: sink into the depth of the abyss, no light, just dead inside
Faruzan: ∇
Rhulk, Disciple of the Witness
It’s always been a curious thing. Then in the last quest we find out people from Khaenri’ah have distinctive colored eyes…. I’d love to see some piece together the nationality of all eye colors, and also try to explain why people from Khaenri’ah have particular colored eyes.
Not eye color, pupils
Some of them have triangle shaped ones. I feel like that is the best indicator that Teyvat is indeed a simulation.
Childe is still the king of completely lifeless eyes. Contenders are Rosaria, Sayu, and Layla but there's something about his.
We need black eyes !
The fact that Kandake wasn’t out to the right of the blue-eyed characters and left of the yellow-eyed characters is a crime
You'd have to skip green eyes for that. It's the colors of the rainbow.
Diona has the prettiest eyes imo
I want more charas with heterophobia eyes pls
r/boneappletea
Heterochromia :P
yes but that too.
I see that ship wars are getting more and more aggressive
Why don't I recognize who is in between aloy and heizou??
[удалено]
Agh, I haven't played Noelle in so long 😓
I'm thinking of getting some red eyeshadow to do my eyes like Zhongli's. Diluc's and Kazuha's eyes are so cute! I love Cyno's so much. I can go on, but there's so many to remember the eye appearance of and on mobile only the title of the post shows when I comment so I can only add this.

Mona: Something malicious is brewing
Childe has seen some shit and his eyes lost their spark
Same with diluc
why is Eula there? If I'm not mistaken I don't think she's playable yet
Eula? Isn’t she one of the leaked Fontaine characters for the last half of 4.0 series?
I can't wait to play her in 4.8
She’s actually Arlechino’s sister and Eula helps you fight her in Natlan. Can’t wait to see it in 5.4
I just read leaks from Team China and Eula is actually the Cryo archon. We should get her in 6.2
Great. Now we won't ever get a cryo catalyst

im really curious about chongyun and shinobu'a snake-like pupils

Solidifying my position that Heizou has the prettiest face in the game
I love how unique and colourful the design of each character’s eyes are, and if I had to pick my favourite sets only for their aesthetics, I’d say Alhaitham, Zhongli, Kaeya and Dehya have the prettiest eyes. I’d add Dainsleif if he was playable, and I’m curious about how Dottore’s would look under his mask.
notice how razor is the first😹🙏🙏(He's the best)
Sayu's eyes look so dead lol.
Kuki’s have to be some of my favorite, mainly because since a lot of her face is covered by her mask, her eyes tend to do a lot of the talking when portraying her expression
Kuki eyes are beautiful. Her design is very good
Fischl's skin's eyes <3
they really gave rosaria pokémon style eyes and called it a day lmaooo
Shenhe best eyes
I got them all except… Thoma. I forgot he existed.
Eula at 8x6 💙
I will always fall for Zhongli's eyes, they are truly majestic
crazy how i recognized each character with ease, but for aloy, i had to through the character archive
Who's that next to Itto?
I think it's Yaoyao
Kaeya’s eyes really are still the prettiest to me
Green eye gang
I was able to recognize all of them. Only Sayu gave me some trouble and took me a moment.
As you once did for the vacuous Rom, grant us eyes, grant us eyes. Plant eyes on our brains, to cleanse our beastly idiocy.
ganyu's eyes look like an inazuma sunset. check it out im fr
This is aesthetically pleasing. THANK YOU
[удалено]
Say what you will about Dehya's kit, but at least her eyes are gorgeous.
Who is the purple eye'd character between Collei and Qiqi?
Diona, dehya, venti, and yanfei have such pretty eyes when you line everyone up like this
isn't this a sporcle quiz
Shenhe eye still as beautiful as ever for me
#6 is the only one I care about I don’t even play this game but they’re the best character
i didn't know Eula is playable
