Character Trailer - Kongming | Grand Archive TCG (Fanmade) EvaPlaysStuff 2025-07-25 | A fun little project to celebrate the end of the Sanguo era for Grand Archive!One of my random hobbies is doing amateur fandubs of Genshin trailers, so I thought ...... maybe I could animate a fake Genshin-inspired GA trailer and fandub it!(By the time I realized I didn't have a good Kongming voice it was too late ☠️)【Timeline】 Half of this video I made in November of last year lmao. Did a bit more in December. Picked it up again in July. Recorded the VO two days ago when I realized "ohhh crap maybe this video should come out before DTR releases"【Credits】 ▸ "Qilin's Prance" (Ganyu's Theme) music track belongs to Genshin Impact / miHoYo / HOYO-MiX.▸ Certain motion graphic transitions courtesy of Jelly Motion.▸ Grand Archive images belong to Weebs of the Shore.Thanks for watching!— TRANSCRIPT & REFERENCES —"A lily pad is but a weed in a pond of lotuses."(Flavor text for Kongming, Wayward Maven)Ever since Guo Jia and I met in the Homeworld orphanage, we’ve been inseparable.(from GA website character profile)Every mission the Grand Archive has sent us on, we’ve come out victorious. But this world… Sanguo… something seems different this time.(paraphase of GA website character profile)Guo Jia, I’ll finally prove that I exist beyond merely in your shadows!(Paraphrase of flavor text for Kongming, Ascetic Vice CSR)“March forward without fear.” May the winds ever be so favorable.(Flavor text for Favorable Winds)"No matter the direction, I guide the flow of battle."(Flavor text for Shifting Currents)“Let me show you my true power.”(Flavor text for Creative Shock)Tsunami of Nanyue! Strategem of Myriad Ice! Solar Pinnacle!(Names of cards)“Dear sister, did you know? Even the most beautiful begonia can become a deadly poison if overindulged.”(Flavor text for Kongming, Wayward Maven CSR)— WHERE TO FIND ME — TalkGA Podcast: youtube.com/talkga Singing Channel: youtube.com/waterpixieva Twitter: twitter.com/waterpixieva #GrandArchive #GrandArchiveTCG
The Ascent Santa Clara Experience! | Grand Archive TCG 🎉 EvaPlaysStuff 2025-06-15 | The original version of this video was produced for the Ascent Santa Clara livestream on Day 2 (youtube.com/live/C6Xh12TupCc?si=HHBkbHRZ7vwthI7G&t=20364) as a recap of Day 1 — but afterwards I decided to add Day 2 footage and make it a highlight video for the entire event. ☺️Oops it’s many months later now, but Ascent Santa Clara was amazing...!!Simply having an Ascent in my hometown area was special; but more than that it felt like this event had everything.The usual competitive Path of Silver and side events, the collectors’ contest Path of Silver, the world premiere of GA’s Draft format, photo ops with Chibi Lorraine’s first Ascent appearance, the first official GA Girls’ Night, upgraded production with spectator area, a panel with the developers, endless hype moments, friends from near, friends from afar. What an honor to be part of it all!Credits go to TM32 for providing filming equipment and being the mastermind behind the Ascent production.Livestream operated by Shinja (TM32) & FomeFilming & edit by me.+ Special thanks to Benton for helping film at 1:10 because I wanted to be in the group picture kek
