miHoYo has uploaded a character trailer for the upcoming new Anemo character in Genshin Impact, Kaedehara Kazuha. His maple leaf aesthetic and cool personality serves as the perfect contrast between the upcoming Inazuma chapter and the current Midsummer Island Adventure beach fun. He will appear in the gacha after the current Klee banner, which will end on June 29, 2021.
The trailer shows off Kazuha’s rapport with Beidou, who has allowed him to board her ship despite the dangers that come with protecting him. He displays a rather poetic side, enjoying the natural beauty around him while lamenting the lack of alcohol. It also shows his calm in battle, stating that the soldiers sent to retrieve his Vision wouldn’t have had to suffer if they had only left him alone. Despite his status as a ronin, Kazuha’s personality is similar to the typical honorable samurai.
Kazuha’s English voice actor is Mark Whitten, who played Rengoku in Demon Slayer and Seteth in Fire Emblem: Three Houses. His Japanese voice actor is Nobunaga Shimazaki, the voice behind Haruka Nanase from Free!. He also voiced Ritsuka Fujimaru, Arjuna, and Dantes from Fate/Grand Order.
After miHoYo implements Kazuha into Genshin Impact, he will be the game’s fourth 5-star Anemo character. Similar to Jean, he uses swords in combat. Other characters from Inazuma who will show up in the future are Ayaka, Yoimiya, and Sayu. Though Inazuma is a country ruled by the Electro Archon, miHoYo has not yet revealed any new Electro characters who will appear in the new region.
Kazuha’s banner will go live after the current Klee banner, which will end on June 29. Genshin Impact is readily available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, and mobile devices.
