the glitchy shit too omfg

u/Non-functionalBird Non-functional Dove Jul 09 '25

I reaaaallly really really really don't wanna put my expectations too high as i doubt Hoyo would make an actual "whoooaaa spoopy angel doing normal SCP shenanigans" But seeing the glitches and the very intentional foreboding vibe, it's hard not to get me hype that she'll be special compared to literally everyone else

u/throwmywilltolive Jul 09 '25

Wait hm arle also has the glitchy shit, other than this being more arlebina propaganda im curious what the glitching even means

u/WhoAsked7modCheck Delusional Dove Jul 09 '25

Moon powers maybe? Arle is related to Crimson moon and there were mentions/leaks about Bina' connection to Frost moon or becoming new moon goddess herself.

u/owcjthrowawayOR69 Jul 09 '25

guess she really is some sort of backrooms/scp entity

10

u/myimaginalcrafts Jul 09 '25

Really playing into the horror aesthetic.

Columbina mains will finally be Columbina mains 🙏

u/danking_donut Little Dove Jul 09 '25

hell fucking yes we're gonna pull for the damselette in nod-krai, no matter how much it takes 💸💸💸

u/owcjthrowawayOR69 Jul 09 '25

RIP those soldiers

u/RemarkableBedroom263 Jul 09 '25

the glitchy effect reminds me of that “stairway to heaven” horror short featuring bina from several months ago

10

u/TomorrowImpossible32 Jul 09 '25

Not just visually but the audio too. The audio sounds very similar to the sound of the video recording in Stairway to Heaven

u/Saawo THE F2P Bina Main Jul 09 '25

My reaction rn

24

u/Shockgerr Jul 09 '25

She's glitching just like Arlecchino, what could be the meaning?

26

u/Carciof99 Jul 09 '25

The fact that glitch could indicate that she is like Arlecchino a reincarnated moon (or who is reincarnating), as they are not of this world and Crowned by the nibelung (weapon ineffa)

u/Medical-Entry-4955 Jan 17 '26

This interpretation will never be a good one. I waited to say this but Arlecchino "glitches" because she is half from a world outside of Tyvate, not because she is linked to the one of the moons. It's like you just on assumptions. The glitch effect in the trailer wasnt even the same as the one from alrlecchino. Besides. The effect looks very similar to a certain "Shade".

"I am retrieveing The Damselette from her banner, whatever it takes." 🗣🔥🔥

u/SafalinEnthusiast Jul 09 '25

Hoyo, I'm not pulling for anyone else. Your wallet is in my hands

13

u/Revan0315 Jul 09 '25

Well that's not foreboding at all

u/Emotional_Reserve267 Seraphim Jul 09 '25

u/Tiny-Comfort-610 Jul 09 '25

SHES FINALLY HEREEEE

5

u/dltds Little Dove Jul 09 '25

The camera glitching and glitch sound effects playing when columbina is shown and she facing the camera and being in the shadows of the new unknown place and them saying "Whatever it takes" implies that she really is gonna be an eldritch horror or atleast semi-horror themed character with sum crazy strong power based on what they said

6

u/GingsWife Jul 09 '25

"Whatever it takes" implies that she really is gonna be an eldritch horror

Or maybe she's in place that's difficult to reach? Or that they might face political and diplomatic opposition?

5

u/ShatteredSpace_001 Favorite Icecream? Blue Moon. Jul 09 '25

Are we gonna have to save her??????

10

u/TomorrowImpossible32 Jul 09 '25

She doesn't really appear to be in any danger.

4

u/TheJelloManX Columbina's Malewife Jul 09 '25

She definitely doesn't need much saving, I think she just left cause she was tired of their shit ig 

3

u/ShatteredSpace_001 Favorite Icecream? Blue Moon. Jul 09 '25

To be honest I’d leave too if I had to deal with the Fatui’s antics

2

u/TheJelloManX Columbina's Malewife Jul 09 '25

I'm like 99% sure that all the Harbingers hate each other, and that the fatui is a rather fragmented but still disciplined organization because if it, she probably got bored 

4

u/ShatteredSpace_001 Favorite Icecream? Blue Moon. Jul 09 '25

Let’s see… anger-issues puppet, mad scientist, probably a ruthless banker, guy who won’t stop fighting everybody, grumpypants McHeels, old man that acts like everyone’s father, tinkerer who probably never leaves her workshop, Pinocchio, Mr. Serious who never shows his face, and dead…

Yeah, I probably wouldn’t want to hang around them either.

6

u/TheJelloManX Columbina's Malewife Jul 09 '25

Imagine if we meet her and she's genuinely sweet, not like a traveler simp, just a girl who was saddled with a bunch of psychos. 

3

u/ShatteredSpace_001 Favorite Icecream? Blue Moon. Jul 09 '25

The Tsaritsa’s adopted daughter vibes, mayhaps?

4

u/TheJelloManX Columbina's Malewife Jul 09 '25

Nepotism for the win

3

u/ShatteredSpace_001 Favorite Icecream? Blue Moon. Jul 09 '25

One of my favorite tropes tbh

5

u/myimaginalcrafts Jul 09 '25

They're retrieving her so she becomes playable.

4

u/Omniholic- Jul 09 '25

Glitching like Arle

4

u/_Neo_64 Jul 09 '25

Whatever it takes almost makes it sound like either she or the people of nod krai really dont want her to leave

3

u/fdruid Jul 09 '25

Or she doesn't want to leave herself. Maybe a betrayal of some sorts?

5

u/Remarkable-Area-349 Reserved for Columbina Jul 09 '25

If the Damselette doesn't wanna leave Nod-Krai, I'm already ready to throw all the hands at anyone who tries to make her leave!

5

u/KingsDay27 Jul 09 '25

Colombina, pls, save Genshin!
Be good written character like Furina!
Pls. save our Captain from his cold prison...

7

u/EverlastingWinter23 Jul 09 '25

I hope this doesn’t mean she’s going rouge, we lost enough harbingers.

3

u/TomorrowImpossible32 Jul 09 '25

Even if she hasn't you can be rest assured we are losing plenty more, Pulcinella for instance is 100% cooked

1

u/fAvORiTe33 Jul 09 '25

Don't think so tbh. surely hoyo knows her banner will sell like crazy.. surely

1

u/G01denDem0n Jul 10 '25

Same with Capitano... but sadly he isn't playable

yet

3

u/httpscalioverdose Jul 09 '25

i’m going to get you! whatever it takes 💵

3

u/Big-Cauliflower-3430 Jul 09 '25

So anyone else feeling Columbina gives of Hersher of Rebirth vibes?

3

u/myroosterprettyfunny Jul 09 '25

Don´t worry Fatui guy I have 88 pulls to help!

3

u/yeriluvie_555 Little Dove Jul 09 '25

SHE EVEN HAS PINK HAIR OMG

3

u/Competitive-Pin-8592 Jul 09 '25

She is coming home.

2

u/KanataHkz Jul 11 '25

We are to retrieve The Damselette from Nod-Krai (read:her banner), whatever it takes (read:wallet / bank account)

u/ifashat Jul 11 '25

im so excited for her the wait has been long

u/[deleted] Jul 09 '25

Yo what's that purple in her palette..Lunar hydro EC?

1

u/Altruistic-Hope5309 Jul 09 '25

Dottores voice?

1

u/Fmlalotitsucks Jul 10 '25

Still not showing her feet

1

u/Complete_Cook_1956 Jul 11 '25

Would go hard as an edit of the harbingers ngl

u/[deleted] Jul 24 '25

Yes, with the way the statue we're shown, i won't be surprised if we get to liberate nod krai from the fatui and, in turn, save and turn columbina into our ally. I just find it odd that this happened

THIS IS IN ORDER Monstadt: La Signora: Dead/Not Playable/Not Ally

Liyue: Childe: Alive/MIA/Playable/Ally

Inazuma: La Signora: Dead/Not Playable/Not Ally Wanderer: Alive/Playable/Ally

Sumeru: Wanderer: Alive/Playable/Ally Il Dottore: Alive/MIA/Soon to be Dead/Not Playable/Not Ally

Fontaine: Father: Alive/Playable/Ally

Natlan: Il Capitano: Dead/Comatose/Not Playable for Now/Temporary Ally Not full Ally

Nod Krai: Collumbina: Alive/Needs to be Saved/New Ally Pierro: Alive/MIA/Not Ally

With the way they got involved and introduced in the main story we will be getting Collumbina as an ally and playable
