the way he rlly wanted to see wubbaboo 🥺

and i find his relationship with velite very...interesting. during the whole quest it felt like smth happened between them (?) Im not sure how to describe it. The thing abt hsr is time is only convenient to the story. Weeks will pass and the reader wont be informed. Exactly how many days were we in the sting or wtv it was? Definitely more than one day. I might have thought otherwise if velite was not part of the quest, but his behavior says more time has passed. He starts with annoyance than near the end feels affection towards Argenti. He talks as if they have gotten a lot closer over the course of the quest, which further soldified my thoughts. How much time passed from the events of the quest and Argenti's mssgs? Obviously quite a bit since Velite changed careers during this time and how Argenti helped.

Overall the quest was pretty cool, but it would've been so much better if they just added a scene like "___ days later..." or smth like that. Or "the next day". The timing kinda threw me off since it didnt take very long but felt as it should have.

lets start off with the trash cans. I'm surprised (not in a bad way!) hsr is bringing back the whole trash can thing with the mc. But why are they buff? Will they be an integral part of the story? Or are they just featured for this trailer? It seems as though this 'Tatalov' is a sort of judge, who decides whether trash is righteous. What would a righteous trash even look like? (or am I reading too much into these silly goofy muscular trash cans?)

And now we come to Sampo. Sampo Koski, mr. worldwide? First belobog, then the xianzhou, and now penacony. Sampo in general is such an interesting character to me. He is the most unserious, wacky man, but then he says such out of pocket things. (the scene where he talks to the player, the scene where he mentions he thought he would have to step in. step in and do what? on what authority?) In the whole trailer he is just throwing the trailblazer and doing goofy stuff, no explanation why he's there. Well I guess we don't know why he was anywhere else. A big part of his mystery is the group he is aligned with, the masked fools. We don't know that much about them (they like to cause chaos and laugh. For who? Chaos will always favor someone). Now that we know Sparkle will be there, hopefully she sheds some light onto the followers of the aeon of elation.

We also got to see the models of some of the characters that were introduced! Those being Firefly, Acheron, Black Swan, Robin and Sunday. Looks like we will be spending a lot of time with firefly, although the last of those little pics she was in with stelle was a little strange. Acheron and black swan were placed next to each other, I don't know if that means anything either. The ending seems like a metaphor, force the garbage king to mend his ways? I think this 'garbage king' is referring to someone we don't know yet.
