Kafka sets a trap in Zenless Zone Zero's character teaser

The Honkai: Star Rail character's introduction has viewers recognizing familiar music and weighing their next character pulls.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 510,985 views a day, 10 times a normal first day on this channel (49,770).

"A top-tier hunter need only wait for the prey to walk into the trap," Kafka says, looking straight at the viewer. Her Zenless Zone Zero introduction leaves little doubt about who is supposed to do the waiting.

"Agent Record | Kafka" reached about half a million views in its first day, more than ten times the channel's usual Shorts start. The comments were unusually busy, too, with viewers discussing the music, hoping to recruit her and wondering how her abilities will work.

This is an official promotional animated character teaser, not a gameplay demonstration. A spotlight picks out Kafka's purple hair, sunglasses and gloves before the camera pulls back to reveal red, laser-like lines crossing around her. A vinyl-record transition introduces a profile poster bearing the words "Unknown Realm."

Kafka is already familiar to Honkai: Star Rail players as a member of the Stellaron Hunters. Several commenters recognize the musical connection to her earlier trailer, specifically pointing to Vivaldi's "Winter." Others are already discussing how to divide their in-game currency between Kafka and the characters appearing alongside her in the channel's announcements.

She is not the only introduction drawing attention: "Agent Record | Robin," posted the same day, also attracted a much faster audience than the channel's usual Short. Kafka's own closing question keeps the focus on her arrival: "I wonder where the story will take us this time."
