5th Anniversary Theme Song: "The Long Way Home" | Genshin Impact

She wasn't lying when she said that she loved this role this much

I RECOGNIZES THAT VOICE IMMEDIATELY!! ITS VENTI’S VA, ERIKAAA!!! Cant believe it’s been 5 years already

Zhongli finally got those who share the memory 🥺♥️

Not just the gathering Archons but Aether AND LUMINE too?!

Venti being the start of our journey and singing the song just brings a different kind of nostalgic feeling to it

I really love the detail that even though many years have gone by, they still reunite in Liyue. Zhongli must be such a good host.

I love that Columbina is part of the party and the Archons, they also care about her and make her feel less alone.

Can't believe it's gonna be 5 years soon..time flies so fast

IS THAT ERIKA
EDIT: THEY ADDED CREDIT TO HER IN THE VID DESCRIPTION NOW AHHEFJB

VENTI SINGING OMGGG HE'S SO CUTE

I love the first sentences during "Venti's part" of the lyrics: "when you lose your way, feel my hand upon your shoulder", implying that they will be with the Traveler no matter where. Venti is the Anemon Archon, and the wind will always be with you, as it is Mondstad's motto.

Fun fact!! The singer for the English version and Chinese version of this song is sung by Venti's voice actor for both languages (Erika Harlacher and Miao Jiang respectively)!! It's confirmed on the bilibili upload of the video. 2:17 is all the archons in their respective languages singing together i believe (unsure if aether/lumine/paimon/columbina is included).

2:18 is that all of the archons singing together 😭

The twins at the end of the video melted my heart, this is so sweet

Did anyone else went teary eyed as the song progresses? No? Just me? 🥹

♫ ♪ *Hidden melodies/leifmotifs* in the song:
0:30 Windblume & Barbara's idle (Mondstadt)
0:37 Lantern Rite theme (Liyue)
1:30 Natlan national anthem
1:37 Nahida's theme (Sumeru)

(If anybody heard hidden melodies from Fontaine or Inazuma, please let me know! I haven't caught them yet)

THANK YOU ERIKA HARLACHER-STONE ❤❤❤

This is beautiful

VENTIS VA?? BRO THIS IS MAJESTIC. IM ASCENDING!!!!!!!!

venti singing this song makes so much sense since he's the first archon we got to meet at the start of the game. i can't believe it's been 5 years since this game came out it's crazy. happy five years genshin! 🎉

Erika’s singing is absolutely amazing Venti will always be one of my favorite characters since Mondstadt is our home forever

It was only yesterday that we were celebrating Genshin's 4th anniversary, and now we're celebrating its 5th anniversary. Time flies so fast

AWW ALL THE ARCHONS ARE SPENDING TIME TOGETHER😭
OMG FURINA LOOKS SOOOOO CUTE IN THIS VIDEO

The subtle Windblume Festival motif at 0:31 man… what a masterpiece

I can’t believe it’s been 5 years already…

2:40 made me sob 😭😭♥

NO WAY VENTI VA SINGING ON ANNIVERSARY VID. SO EXCITED!

Hoyo really making this VA like their own child. 1st they allow her to freestyle the poem during Windblume event when other VA just read the script, now they invite her for this pv. I would say its just fitting since Venti is the 1st one we ever met during start of game. Like a wind, we really come and go after 5 years

We have indeed…come a long way

the wind and the star traveler
