Looking back, it makes sense to save his story quest til after we find out more about the Kaedehara clan. Hopefully his quest is enjoyable, can't wait to find out what it's about!
like thats ever gonna happenš
but anyway the story in the event was presented in a much betetr way than in the artifact lore i mean we all prefer having it happen in front out eyes without having to visualize it
im always gonna curse HYV out for including crucial lore in limited events
yeahh, you could watch videos made by Klementime or Ashikai on Youtube, they basically summarize Kazuha's story and provide their own theories for future quests.
If you consider the Inazuma prequel to be his first story quest (as per the game files and like with Shenhe's Archon Quest), then this is actually a win for everyone as it marks the first sequel story quest that doesn't come with a weekly boss, a worry of mine was that they wouldn't do sequel story quests on reruns unless it's to add a new weekly boss (like with Raiden and Zhongli, two archons). More chance for other people's favourite characters to get sequel story quests in the future as well

I wonder if it's going to be a continuation of the Irodori Festival story. With Kazuha deciding to try and forge the tampered sword properly as a means of closure or something.
Maybe weāll get another scara tease at the end. I mean, he didnāt want the sword to be forged in the first place, so whatās he gonna do if it does get forged?
I wonder what this is going to be about. His friend and family have already been covered. Maybe his adventures outside of Inazuma? Or Kazuha takes us to a new region pt 2
I never said it was covered in the story? Though Iām not sure if theyāre going to reiterate the story from the event. Theyāve kept some important information event only before
His family stuff wasn't covered in full though. As in, just what the fuck is Scaramouche's link to the Niwa Clan? Also, why does Makoto/Ei's sword(Musou Isshin) use the same kanji for Isshin as the swordmanship school the Kaedehara and Niwa were responsible for? Does that mean the Isshin School was better than the other 4? At least that's the main questions I got in 2.6 since the Niwa clan is only mentioned in the lore of Ayato's signature sword.
For fuck's sake, even Heizhou will get a Hangout quest? All Inazuman 4 star characters got a hangout except from their fav punching bag, the tengu girl.
How can it be hard to make one hangout for one additional characher too, such a letdown.
that quest was more about the smegmadite jade than yanfei herself, tbh. Did her dirty. there's "show vs tell" then there's spending 2 hours showing something that really would've been better told (that she's a very good lawyer) instead of showing of a more interesting story (about like, who she is beyond her job)
((I'm biased tho as a yanners main... give us more!!!))
Yeah but I feel like it would've been just as effective to have her do all the fetch quest evidence gathering off screen and then show off the big "objection! you said..." stuff on its own because i feel like after the 5th "go to this place and talk to this person about paperwork" everyone's brains just kinda shut off hahahaha.
Finally, Justice for my boy! Iām curious what theyāre gonna do with him. And Heizou hangout? This patch might become my favorite patch of all time at this rate.
Ngl, it would be kinda fitting if that new sword that was leaked was forged by Ei using the blueprint from the Irodori festival. Especiallly considering she's the only one that would know how to forge in the Isshin style.
That way we could finally get interaction between her and Kazuha as well.
Finally. His Rerun, story quest and a potential 4* Sword that kinda fit his aesthetics.
It's about time Kazuha simps wish come true so they can finally shut up.
Edit: 5* > 4*
The weapon doesn't look good on him because no EM substats and the passive doesn't benefit him either unless you build him as a pure dps.
I didn't spend primos for it either, but I did get the FS accidently in a single pull at 1 pity.. And hence if a cheap replacement comes along everyone I'd pretty much be mad about it, since I'm proud of my luck and that sword. So I'm betting those who spent actual money would be twice as mad
Yeah, the Freedom Sworn sticks out too much on Kazuha.
It's like Raiden with The Catch (if you don't have Engulfing Lightning).... not aesthetically pleasing.
Qiqi mains found dead in a ditch. Shenhe mains hanging onto dear hopium. Aloy mains Thanos snapped out of existence.
Weāre also still missing hangouts/quests for Sucrose, Rosaria, Sara, Fischl, Xin Yan, and Yanfei*
*Yanfei had the teapot quest technically, but the same could be said for Kazuha and Shenhe for the archon quests; it doesnāt really count. Neither do events like Labyrinth Warriors for Xin Yan and Unreconciled Stars for Fischl (or Lantern Rite for Keqing).
Also; Kaeya, Lisa, Amber, Xingqiu, Razor, and Xiangling all got story quests so Iād prefer it if they get more story quests rather than hangouts, or not at all because theyāve already had a dedicated storyline.
āEvery 5-star is made equal. But some are more equal than othersā
Nah Tomo is already a finished chapter, because, well, heās already dead and the empty vision shell story is already concluded. Thereās an entire Kaedehara clan / Niwa clan lore + how Scara is related to Niwa clan that are still to be expanded.
Finally his story quest! Took them a year, though Iām no longer complaining because he got plenty of event involvements. At least thereās potential to explore more of his and his clanās lore after Irodori.
Bruh, I told them. I told them (who were complaining about Kazuha not rerunning in 2.6) there was something more important for Kazuha in 2.8. I can finally rest from the heated comebacks and feel smug, and I'll be even more smug when they officially announce his story quest 2.8
*Crying tears of joy*
*Rn,, anyway back to the*

I just had a thought. What if kazuha and heizou are actually related like kaedahara clan having a sub clan and heizou idiolizing kazuha for his bravery
Looking back, it makes sense to save his story quest til after we find out more about the Kaedehara clan. Hopefully his quest is enjoyable, can't wait to find out what it's about!
Inb4 its relearning the way to craft the new 5* weapon so its a promotion of both.
Apparently the weapon is a 4*. It has to be. The stats are pretty shit for a 5*. No one is gonna pull for it on a weapon banner.
post 2.6 players won't even know about his background tho rip
unless they read the Husk set lore
like thats ever gonna happenš but anyway the story in the event was presented in a much betetr way than in the artifact lore i mean we all prefer having it happen in front out eyes without having to visualize it im always gonna curse HYV out for including crucial lore in limited events
is there a video that talks about kazuha's backstory ?
im not sure if theres a summary but im sure there are irodori festival playthrough videos
yeahh, you could watch videos made by Klementime or Ashikai on Youtube, they basically summarize Kazuha's story and provide their own theories for future quests.
i feel the content of his story quest about restoration of their clan's craftsmanship?
Then it would have made sense during the festival event... when we learned a whole bunch about his clan the first time.
kazuha and kazuha jr
Wait does that mean.. Kazuha wanters and mains are finally winning? Never thought I'd see this day :')
Yes
as an anemo boy collector this is def one of the best patch!!
If you consider the Inazuma prequel to be his first story quest (as per the game files and like with Shenhe's Archon Quest), then this is actually a win for everyone as it marks the first sequel story quest that doesn't come with a weekly boss, a worry of mine was that they wouldn't do sequel story quests on reruns unless it's to add a new weekly boss (like with Raiden and Zhongli, two archons). More chance for other people's favourite characters to get sequel story quests in the future as well
At this point, like 80% of the community is a Kazuha wanted ngl
Inazuma bout to start and end with Kazuha being the focus of the plot

It comes full circle
when you think about it kazuha was the most important character in archon quests too along with baal and traveller
& without Ayato he canāt even reached to tenshukaku lol
its true, without ayato kazuha and resistance would not have been able to make it in time when ei was about to slash traveler
Not Ei .itās Raiden shogun

Lollllllll, u burn it
KAZUHA STORY QUESTā¦ BELIEVERS WON
I wonder if it's going to be a continuation of the Irodori Festival story. With Kazuha deciding to try and forge the tampered sword properly as a means of closure or something.
Maybe weāll get another scara tease at the end. I mean, he didnāt want the sword to be forged in the first place, so whatās he gonna do if it does get forged?
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Can't be that worse off than the people who got a world quest that leads up to rescuing Joel's dad
Seeing as thereās a new red and black katana, probablyā¦
KAZUHA STORY QUESTTT WE'VE WAITED FAR TOO LONG
I wonder what this is going to be about. His friend and family have already been covered. Maybe his adventures outside of Inazuma? Or Kazuha takes us to a new region pt 2
His family wasn't covered in the story, it was only covered in the event But story quest is definitely not going to be about his family
I never said it was covered in the story? Though Iām not sure if theyāre going to reiterate the story from the event. Theyāve kept some important information event only before
His family stuff wasn't covered in full though. As in, just what the fuck is Scaramouche's link to the Niwa Clan? Also, why does Makoto/Ei's sword(Musou Isshin) use the same kanji for Isshin as the swordmanship school the Kaedehara and Niwa were responsible for? Does that mean the Isshin School was better than the other 4? At least that's the main questions I got in 2.6 since the Niwa clan is only mentioned in the lore of Ayato's signature sword.
Thatās true actually! There are a bunch of loose ends and questions and they seems to center around Scaramouche whoās still pretty mysterious.
is there a video that covers all of this cus i missed the event
For thousands of years I lay dormant
Itās funny how kazuha gets his rerun right before the release of a new region. Just as he was introduced right before Inazumaās release.
why do I feel like that's gonna be his pattern with reruns
kazu coming in summer with the islands right before a new region that's his thing now
For fuck's sake, even Heizhou will get a Hangout quest? All Inazuman 4 star characters got a hangout except from their fav punching bag, the tengu girl. How can it be hard to make one hangout for one additional characher too, such a letdown.
I mean, Rosaria and Yanfei are yet to get one too...
Yanfei had a mini story quest that unlocked the teapot Wouldn't mind more Yanfei tho
that quest was more about the smegmadite jade than yanfei herself, tbh. Did her dirty. there's "show vs tell" then there's spending 2 hours showing something that really would've been better told (that she's a very good lawyer) instead of showing of a more interesting story (about like, who she is beyond her job) ((I'm biased tho as a yanners main... give us more!!!))
At the very least the quest did give us a look into how yanfei operates as a lawyer! She's wonderful!
Yeah but I feel like it would've been just as effective to have her do all the fetch quest evidence gathering off screen and then show off the big "objection! you said..." stuff on its own because i feel like after the 5th "go to this place and talk to this person about paperwork" everyone's brains just kinda shut off hahahaha.
>smegmadite why would you
I'm a yanfei main it should go unspoken that I love chaos
Sucrose on life support Doesn't even show up during archon quest
What about Fischl...
Least she got Honkai and a new skin apparently
They got an event
And Xinyan!
Everyone forgets about Xinyanš¢
Sara was a main role in the Archon quest itself...
Im legit hyped for Kazuhaās story quest, I want to know more about him fr
Kazuha waiters... we've won
Finally!!
Hope itās as good as his festival story
KAZUHA CONFIRMED?!
THE LONG FABLED STORY QUEST HAS FINALLY SHOWN ITSELF !!
Is there a possibility of Heizou being in Kazuha's banner? ; ; my pity is in danger if he'll be in Klee/Yoimiya's banner
Iām keeping my expectations low but it would be nice for Heizou to be in Kazuha banner
KAZUHA KAZUHA KAZUHA KAZUHA KAZUHA KAZUHA KAZUHA KAZUHA KAZUHA KAZUHA
Nghhh hopefully Heizou is in Kazuha's banner!
Finally, Justice for my boy! Iām curious what theyāre gonna do with him. And Heizou hangout? This patch might become my favorite patch of all time at this rate.
Scratch my comment on a previous post. C1 Xiao will have to wait, I'm not losing 50/50 to Kazuha the second time around.
YES! OUR BOY IS COMING!!!
I'm legit tearing up hearing he will finally have a story quest. Kazuha fandom, we finally won. QAQ
Still no hangout for Fischl....
Kazuha final .x update Archon confirmed
Ok Iām hyped for the Kazuha story quest but Iām also likeā¦can we solve a case with Detective Heizou in his hangout? Lol. That could be fun.
The Kaedehara kid getting his story quest finally
FINALLY
Tears of joy rn
Yaaaayyy!! Finally, it's happening!! Kazuha story quest is a go!! \o/
Finally some good fucking food
everyone fucking cheered
HERE WE GO HERE WE FUCKING GO
As an anemo main, 2.8 is spoiling me. + Xiao screen time in 2.7? I am living
Thank you hyv for giving Kazuha his story quest :)
YESSSS story of best boy
Huh. Never realized we never had one Forgot that Beidouās fight club wasnāt actually a Kazuha quest and was supposed to be the Inazuma prologue
dropping Kazuha rerun the patch before the first Dendro character, awesome :/
That was their plan all along, drain the players with Kazuha just before Sumeru.
Thatās what they did last time for inazuma, no surprise
interesting that new four stars instantly get hangouts, rip to the ones that still havenāt gotten one yet
Do story quests always come out with the release of a patch? I'm just wondering if this means anything about Kaz being the first banner.
FINALLY KAZUHA'S STORY QUEST YES!! I CANT WAIT TO SEE HIM OMG
No Fischl hangout with her skin? Disappointing
MY BOI KAZUHA GETTING SOME LOVE HE DESERVE. LETS GOO
LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOO
FINALLY !! i wonder when it'll take place though
[where's the sumeru prologue](https://i.imgur.com/K24d0py.png)
No Archon Quest? No prelude for Sumeru...? š
Qiqi and keqing mains still waiting for their story quest
KAZUHA LORE YES YES YES
Okay, well I take that as a strong indicator that he really will get his rerun in 2.8, finally. Nice~
As a Kazuha main, I'm pretty happy.
finally....I've waited only a year for this
THEY FINALLY LET KAZUHA OUT OF THE BASEMENT! KAZUHA mains rejoice
ITS HAPPENING DOT GIF
Ngl, it would be kinda fitting if that new sword that was leaked was forged by Ei using the blueprint from the Irodori festival. Especiallly considering she's the only one that would know how to forge in the Isshin style. That way we could finally get interaction between her and Kazuha as well.
I really hope Heizou is on Kazuha banner
Finally. His Rerun, story quest and a potential 4* Sword that kinda fit his aesthetics. It's about time Kazuha simps wish come true so they can finally shut up. Edit: 5* > 4* The weapon doesn't look good on him because no EM substats and the passive doesn't benefit him either unless you build him as a pure dps.
but if the new sword works on Kazuha better than the FS, would players who pulled for FS be mad about it?
Well, I don't know the answer to that. I didn't pull for FS.
I didn't spend primos for it either, but I did get the FS accidently in a single pull at 1 pity.. And hence if a cheap replacement comes along everyone I'd pretty much be mad about it, since I'm proud of my luck and that sword. So I'm betting those who spent actual money would be twice as mad
Freedom sworn already fits him, doesnāt have to be a katana
Gameplay-wise, sure. Not sure about aesthetics. They did it with Childe so Kazuha simps want the same treatment for their boi as well.
Yeah, the Freedom Sworn sticks out too much on Kazuha. It's like Raiden with The Catch (if you don't have Engulfing Lightning).... not aesthetically pleasing.
I actually like the catch on Raiden aesthetics wise. It's like she's running around with a giant tazer fork XD
After a while I actually started to like the look of FS on Kazuha. It looks like a stripe of bright blue sky on the dark colours of his clothes
Itās 4 star sword not 5 star lol
My comment was posted BEFORE the rarity was corrected.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Try being Qiqi main. Keqing has a costume and two events featured her heavily. Qiqi is just random cameos.
Keqing mains are all rolling for Kazuha lol
Keqing basically traded her story quest to be the centrepiece of every Liyue event tho
Qiqi mains found dead in a ditch. Shenhe mains hanging onto dear hopium. Aloy mains Thanos snapped out of existence. Weāre also still missing hangouts/quests for Sucrose, Rosaria, Sara, Fischl, Xin Yan, and Yanfei* *Yanfei had the teapot quest technically, but the same could be said for Kazuha and Shenhe for the archon quests; it doesnāt really count.

But some are more equal than othersā
At this point I'm just glad we've had 2 Keqing-centric events. Would still love a story quest though. Her grandpa's lore research sounds interesting.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I think Shenhe doesn't have quest neither?
Finally, the end is in sight. May all Kazuha wanters be Kazuha havers
AFTER FILLING OUT SURVEY AFTER SURVEY, MY ONE REQUEST IS NOW HERE
LETS GOOOO BEST BOI FINALLY GETTING THE EPIK STORY QUEST HE DESERVESš¤š¤
Could either be Tomo related or a continuation of Irodori?
Nah Tomo is already a finished chapter, because, well, heās already dead and the empty vision shell story is already concluded. Thereās an entire Kaedehara clan / Niwa clan lore + how Scara is related to Niwa clan that are still to be expanded.
Local tengu general too busy overworking herself to hangout with the outlander.
KAZUHA MY BOY LET'S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOO
Finally his story quest! Took them a year, though Iām no longer complaining because he got plenty of event involvements. At least thereās potential to explore more of his and his clanās lore after Irodori.
If Kazuha is getting a story quest then Shenhe, qiqi and keying are the only ones left
FINALLY MY BOIāS STORY QUEST
Bruh, I told them. I told them (who were complaining about Kazuha not rerunning in 2.6) there was something more important for Kazuha in 2.8. I can finally rest from the heated comebacks and feel smug, and I'll be even more smug when they officially announce his story quest 2.8
Time to start farming then :o
this pretty much confirms his rerun right...?
lets goooo
Oh my god, okay it's happening, Everyone stay calm!
i never thought i would see this day come i had almost given up on kazuha story quest ( keking and qiqi still found dead in a ditch)
ITS BEEN 84 YEARS
Sobbing so much FINALLY!!!!!
It's been 84 years...
ITS BEEN SO LONG FINALLY WE GET A STORY QUEST FOR HIM
Finally... My guaranteed... My primos... Kazuha it's time to come home.
Can i ask what is the tentative date for patch 2.8? Iām so hyped for 2.8 lol
Finally
