Then, Karen, dressed in a pure white saint's robe, slowly appeared.
This scene, however, was a pleasant surprise for all the viewers.
The reason is simple: this animated short film doesn't use a 3D rendering-to-2D modeling style, but rather a very exquisite 2D hand-drawn style.
This situation prompted viewers to speculate.
Has miHoYo really heard the audience's voice and is planning to make anime?
After all, 2D hand-drawn illustrations are generally used in animation production.
Furthermore, viewers also discovered that miHoYo's art style is absolutely gorgeous and exquisite!
It's much prettier than the anime art style in Japan right now.
It's actually quite normal for the audience to have this opinion.
After all, the entertainment and gaming industries in this world are relatively underdeveloped.
The same applies to anime.
Even in Japan, the country with the most developed ACG industry, the art style that is still commonly used today is the cute style similar to "Cardcaptor Sakura" from more than ten years ago on Earth.
It's not fair to say that the art style is bad.
The main thing is that miHoYo's animated short film, with its realistic art style, is truly refreshing.
Whether it's the outline of the figures, or the facial features and body proportions, everything is absolutely perfect, leaving no room for criticism.
Moreover, this art style is compatible with the aesthetics of almost all viewers.
This is also the main reason why this kind of realistic style eventually became the most common animation style on Earth.
Because it has a wide audience, it is more in line with the market.
But no matter how much the audience speculates or how surprised they are.
"Thus Spoke Apocalypse" continues to air.
Karen's image appeared for only a brief moment.
When the scene cuts back to Otto, the art style changes back to 3D modeling.
"The saintess gave everything for the people, but what she received in return was merciless shackles and nooses..."
"The world is such a bastard; it's neither fair nor reasonable..."
Otto's tone sounded weak and heavy.
His battered and bruised appearance inevitably makes people worry about him.
In the scene, he finally dragged his badly injured body to the vicinity of the Imaginary Tree.
At the same time, the sand also transformed into countless humanoid monsters, attempting to stop Otto.
Otto slowly stopped walking.
It persecutes heroes.
"Nurturing evil"
Ugliness is everywhere.
"The good is gone..."
Looking at the humanoid monsters that came to stop him, Otto smiled and summoned the Mimicry Skyfire Greatsword.
"The evil thoughts of the world are caused by evil gods..."
"Come and cut it off!!"
Otto raised his sword and swung it.
His entire body was engulfed in crimson flames, making Otto appear incredibly sacred.
For the first time, viewers discovered that Otto could be this handsome...
It turns out that Otto can be like a hero too.
Although, that was a hero that belonged only to Karen.
……
Immediately, the barrage of comments surged.
"So cool!!"
[Good luck, Bishop!!]
[Heavenly Fire!! Unsheathed!!]
……
Then, the scene switched again.
Karen, her hands cuffed, slowly ascended the execution platform.
She offered no resistance, nor did she show any fear in her eyes.
As she was about to be executed with a rope around her neck, the scene switched back to Otto's mental space.
Such frequent switching did not affect the viewing experience.
Instead, it made Otto appear as an unsung hero.
At this moment, the mimicry of heavenly fire in his hand was wielded solely for Kallen.
Faced with a dense horde of humanoid monsters.
Without hesitation, Otto charged forward with his sword raised.
"This is the world's relentless backlash against her."
This is the distance between her and me.
The piano music was still soft and melancholic, and the image of Otto risking his life was truly touching.
Alicia couldn't help but sigh.
"Sigh~ This is the distance between Otto and Kallen..."
Alicia's sudden sigh puzzled Eden.
"Ellie... what do you mean by that?"
Alicia smiled: "The distance between Karen and Otto, huh?"
"The greatest distance in the world is that Kallen is drawn in 2D, while Otto is drawn in 3D~"
Eden: "..."
Alicia's somewhat jarring joke, however, made Eden and many other viewers fall into deep thought.
Could it be that Mo Li is hinting at something by using a 2D art style for Kallen's artwork this time?
Does this imply that Otto and Karen will never have a happy ending?
Once such speculation emerged, it quickly spiraled out of control.
After all, miHoYo is known for its obsession with details...
Chapter 172, IRAS 17514
[Waaaaah... Airi's joke broke my defenses QAQ]
The greatest distance in the world isn't between the ends of the earth, but between one in 2D and the other in 3D...
[This statement may sound quirky... but it's incredibly cruel to Otto...]
I've already finished this side story. In it, Kallen falls for a girl named Sakura...
Moreover, Otto knew this... He knew Kallen already had someone she loved, but he still chose to give everything for her...
From this day forward, the bishop is the spokesperson for the God of Pure Love QAQ
……
During the audience's discussion.
Otto continued fighting while approaching the Imaginary Tree.
His body... or rather his soul, was being rapidly eroded to a degree visible to the naked eye.
Players have never seen Otto in such a sorry state.
His angry roar and gritted teeth caused countless people to worry.
And the music became increasingly intense.
Otto's battles are becoming increasingly difficult.
When a giant monster appears, the scene switches back to Kallen's side.
