“Mihoyo learn that deifying you’re character and making them capable of no wrong actually makes them less interesting, not deeper” challenge. “Mihoyo stop shooting yourself in the foot” challenge
Seriously though, the sudden shift to the “umm, actually, all the moths were perfect and our girls are following in their footsteps” narrative is… so weird. I can excuse Elysia saying it because her thinking everyone in her close friend group is perfect is very on brand for her, but everyone backing it up? I’m a flame chaser enjoyer, but they fucked things up for themselves. They lost because they were divided and constantly at each other’s throats and couldn’t get their shit together until it was too late, I sure hope the girls aren’t following in their footsteps.
I just don’t get why they wouldn’t just stick with the “the flame chasers laid an incredibly important foundation for the future, but ultimately the current era needs to follow a different path” narrative they had up until this point. I also don’t get why’d they try and make Mei the only one carrying on their legacy when up until now, their legacy has been carried on by pretty much everyone in the story. Other than Fu Hua just you know… actually being a surviving flame chaser (which I would argue automatically makes her connection to them more important than Mei’s), you got Durandal carrying on Su’s legacy and passing his research on to Otto, Seele meeting the AU/memory Sakura, Void Archives, mantises, literally any character who uses a Devine Key…
I’d get it if they were just having Mei be grateful to them or have her truly learn about and appreciate everything they did for the world and how their sacrifices are what gave the current era a fighting chance, but the straight up deification…

Idk man. Senti, Seele, and Bronya are my favorite characters now because they are the only ones who completely survived the shredder
