Synopsis

[Watch-along] [Alternate timelines] [Trailblazer Stelle] [Mainly Honkai: Star Rail, with Honkai as a secondary setting and Genshin Impact after that. Zenless Zone Zero and other watch-along timelines may also appear.]

In different worlds and even across different timelines, a beam of light suddenly tore open the sky and projected a screen that could not be observed by any means other than the naked eye.

Baiheng: “How is that cold-faced little dragon, Dan Heng, so much like our High Elder, Dan Feng? But he doesn't have horns or pointed ears, so he definitely can't be our High Elder reincarnated. Right, exactly!”

Dan Feng: “…”

Baiheng: “Is that person Yingxing? He actually looks pretty handsome with white hair. Don't dye it green just to hide that you're getting old…”

Yingxing: “…”

Falken: “The Astral Express's new navigator looks pretty young. There may not be many of them, but they're certainly full of unusual energy!”

Mikhail: “That's right. I wish I could get to know these youngsters through the sky screen.”

Igor: “I never thought Jarilo-VI would be saved by the Astral Express after being invaded by the Antimatter Legion and frozen by a Stellaron.”

Akivili: “To see the Astral Express still traveling through the universe in the future, after my fall… Now that's a surprise.”

(Note: The speakers of the same character may come from different timelines. Official information is sparse and scattered, so portrayals of people from the past may not be entirely accurate. Please bear with me.)

(Suggestion: Don't save this book for later. Setting aside the fact that you might miss your chance to read it if it stops updating, a high rate of readers following new chapters will motivate the author to update more often, or even post extra chapters. If the rate is too low, updates may slow down or stop altogether.)

I've seen many different viewing styles for the anime/manga series, ancient people's viewing styles, and even fan-made viewing styles like "watching the movie with a Mijia family" or "watching the movie from the future." This was the first time I'd seen a former anonymous viewer watching the present, but the narration was rather slow.

It's so good! The main character is Sora, it's really great!

Personally, I think this book is fantastic. Despite the choice of a male protagonist as the main character and relatively low data support, the author has persevered to this point, and the writing quality is even quite good (the main plot and the events in the Final Horizon are reasonably interwoven). In short, I will continue to follow the updates and hope the author keeps up the good work.

It's good, I love watching it. So far, it's written quite well, but I hope that viewers will see more perspectives from characters who haven't experienced the events, and fewer from those who have. This is especially true for Belloborg, because at the end of the game's main storyline, their demand is to hide the truth, otherwise Belloborg will face a crisis of trust, leading to serious…

It's good, although the pacing might be a bit slow at first, but it's still good. A review that doesn't include personal bias or go out of character is good.

So far, it's not bad. Although it follows the traditional movie-style storytelling format, the author does a good job of writing about the reactions from various sectors or summarizing the plot. It's quite good. My personal focus is more on the Five Heavens above the clouds. So far, the characters are mostly in character and haven't gone out of character. If it keeps up like this, the future looks bright. (And the author updates three times a day, which is a pretty good amount of content 😆)

This is a very serious story. The fact that the main character is Sora is enough to earn it a five-star rating, and there's no overtly romanticized pairing. The only potential trigger is the content after Onpharos ends, mainly to avoid any backstabbing. 🤦

This is really well-written. The author has a lot of original ideas, and the audience's reviews during the film are not out of character at all. It not only includes Yun Wuwan but also different characters from different periods, a very interesting setup. Furthermore, the writing is concise, well-organized, and avoids unnecessary padding. Review: A great film review of *Collapse of Iron*, worth collecting and following! @DreamingOfGoingHome Author, keep up the good work and don't stop updating!

This is unique among Honkai Impact 3rd films, showcasing different timelines, factions, and other worlds. The writing is also good, and I highly recommend it. [Top post][Top post][Top post][Top post][Top post][Top post] The National Day holiday is almost over. Hopefully, the author will update once or twice a week, depending on how busy they are.

This book is truly wonderful. It blends the past and the future, featuring the nameless figures from the past and the quests from the event version of the story, evoking a sense of nostalgia. Mikhail and his fellow nameless figures are particularly memorable, as are the stories of Igor and Jingyuan.
