Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Myriad Celestia Trailer: Fables About the Stars Part 3 | Honkai: Star Rail
Ellen Joe brings housekeeping credentials and very little enthusiasm for extra work. Astra Yao brings a singer's promise to win people over with a single track. Between them, the two visitors from Zenless Zone Zero's New Eridu give Honkai: Star Rail's busy week a more personal counterpoint to its cosmic mythology.
The official game's channel posted nine uploads, including promotional introductions for both characters. Ellen's description pairs bodyguard duties with holiday homework and a losing struggle against her alarm clock; Astra's puts an offstage vacation beside her life under the spotlights. Ellen's introduction is also among the channel's busiest videos right now, alongside "The Laughter Outsmarts miHoYo" Episode 6 | Retreat.
The week's most-watched upload, though, was "Myriad Celestia Trailer: Fables About the Stars Part 3 | Honkai: Star Rail", reaching roughly 1.1 million views. Its animated gathering of Aeons moves from Ouroboros's hunger to Terminus and, finally, Kafka's phone call. In the comments, viewers keep returning to the idea of Kafka having an Aeon on speed dial, while others pick apart the appearances of Idrila and Terminus.
Friday brought the Version 4.7 special program and "Version 4.7 Trailer: \"Now, Lay Laughter to All Stars\" | Honkai: Star Rail". The program set the release date for November 11, while the trailer credits Lizzie Freeman as Sparxie, Joe Hernandez as Asat Pramad and Shaun Mendum as the male Trailblazer.
Across the channel, the week added about 5.7 million views, the largest weekly gain among the nearby publisher and esports channels here, with World of Warcraft also having a substantial week. Subscribers stayed unchanged. Daily viewing is running above Honkai: Star Rail's usual pace, and the six-day-old "Retreat" remains its busiest upload by current daily views.
