new headcanon (courtesy of my girlfriend) that Doctor Veritas Ratio can hold his liquor really well because he drank away his sorrows whenever he'd be rejected in his life (eg. genius society)

because tell me why. this mf is ordering a very strong very bitter and very thick drink either he wants to get himself KNOCKED OUT or he can hold his liqour REALLY well

[ratio-fan-6671011]

Don't mind me, I'm just about to go broke~ Look at him in his silly little bath, him with his silly little gun ("I'm a Doctor, but...") and in his silly little L pose🛀

Though REALLY HOYO?? So much merch and no Amphoreus (or, almost any) plot relevance?

[ratio-fan-6671011]

so what people have pointed out in the concert trailer (from as far down my tl as i could scroll before it started lagging my browser):

the catcake bouncing around castorice has the detail on the side that makes it clearly the trashcan/trailblazer one

the one ratio picks up doesn't have the trashcan detail; ergo, it's a different catcake

it looks like the one aventurine accidentally stepped on in last year's concert trailer. you know, one of the ones that live with him. in his home

(⬆️ last year's concert trailer)

ratio picks the catcake up by its lid(??? lmao?) and it's smiling and happy like it's not uncomfortable with that, and tosses it (lmao x2) offscreen as if someone's there to catch it

on the right side of stelle, in the direction ratio tosses the catcake, u can see someone's elbow barely in the shot wearing clothing the same brownish-black color as aventurine's usual coat

it doesn't match any of the staff in the next shot

(stelle just like me fr)

it could be jing yuan's elbow, but when we left off, he was sleeping

consensus:

My (frankly lacking) Ratio summoning circle is ready - borrowing the power and luck of Doctor's husband.

I think this should account for at least E3 + LC

Good Luck to all pulling for the Doctor💎

PS. I swear I had duck memorabilia somewhere around the house, but couldn't find it now. Reminds me of that one fanfic with Laurentius the duck🦆

Obligatory rambling post in celebration of the glorious Dr. Ratio

1) The way Ratio yeeted the poor meow-meow ✨gracefully✨

2) Side-job as a model AGAIN. We stan, we riot. Especially over the poses, he is such a silly!! You go Scholar King, give us more!

3) No words, just #me

Aventurine's JP VA - 2nd anniversary message translation

Continuation of this post

Aven's VA message is shorter than the others', so I managed to translate it rather quickly. Apparently Kawanishi-san is NOT a yapper.

Message Translation

Hi everyone! I am Kengo Kawanishi, Aventurine’s voice actor. Congratulations to Honkai Star Rail on its upcoming 2nd anniversary!

Everyone seems to be enjoying the Galactic Journey and leading fulfilling lives.

Aventurine was introduced just around last year’s 1st anniversary, hm. While being an executive of IPC, he has graced magazine covers, played guitar at the concert (1), and overall, I think he’s been leading quite fulfilling days as well. I’m glad that I got to see the various sides of him(2).

Though Aventurine’s charm point is definitely his good fortune/luck. As we celebrate the 2nd anniversary, his “gacha assist service” remains available. 

With many new and appealing characters being released, it would make me happy if you continue to call out to Aventurine for assistance(3).

Kindly keep giving your support to both Aventurine and Honkai Star Rail!

Translation Notes:

Referring to the 1st anni concert;

The expression used here is actually ‘different colors of him’. I thought “sides” sounded more natural, but “colors” sounds more poetic - thus this note;

Assistance for pulls. The original sentence is more vague but this is the main point of it.

Additional stuff:

Kawanishi-san saying that we lead a fullfilling/content life after all the recent hsr drama is extremely funny to me.

Him saying that Aventurine is leading a fullfilling life as well... It's making me feel things that I can't describe.

THE NEW JP VIDEO TRANSLATION (IPC groupchat + Ratio's VA congratulation message)

Disclaimer: There might be small mistakes in the Ratio's VA message translation, due to him talking too fast and no video subtitles + just the overall difficulty of translating from japanese.

+ made Aven's VA message translation

Groupchat messages

Aventurine: Jade~, you see, I want to attend my friend’s party. The overlapping meeting… It’s fine if I skip it?

Topaz: Wait a sec! I’m properly managing my schedule, you know? I won’t let you slack off alone!

Jade: Calm down, Helena~ Indeed, if it was the invitation from the Trailblazer, it’s not an event that can be skipped.

Topaz: Madame Jade… But…

Jade: Now, let’s make a deal. If you help me with the next auction, I’ll arrange it so you don’t have to attend that meeting.

Aventurine: Sounds good, I’m in.

Dr. Ratio: Coincidentally, I’ve also been invited as a scholar of the Intelligentsia Guild.

Jade: Then how about the two of you go together? However, please make sure not to cause a big commotion this time.

Aventurine: Of course 

Dr. Ratio: Hmph. (in a slutty/”heh” way, i cannot)

Congralutary message from Ratio's VA

Hello everyone! I am the voice actor of Doctor - Shunsuke Takeuchi.

It’s almost the 2nd anniversary of Honkai Star Rail - so congratulations! Oh wow, time flies - it’s already the 2nd anniversary, isn��t it?

Ah, well, um, the character I play, Ratio-kun, is a scholar from the Intelligentsia Guild. He spreads knowledge across the entire universe and works hard to cure ignorance/foolishness (1). It seems he's also giving lectures at the university and is working really hard.

Um, as to how much it (the foolishness) has been cured in the past year? Well, it’s really resisting. It’s saying things like 'Idiot,' 'Fool,' and 'Weakling’. Though, since Ratio is so brilliant, he must have treated a lot of people suffering from foolishness/ignorance.

Please keep supporting Ratio-kun (2) on his path to curing ignorance/foolishness.

Also, about the recently released Amphoreus, I heard it includes something like a bath. Since Professor Ratio loves baths, wouldn’t it be nice to enjoy Amphoreus together?

Is that the rubber duck from the illustration (3)? Of course, we’ll let it float and take a bath as well. But is it okay to join in? I wonder (4). Well, I’m not sure, but please just relax and enjoy yourselves.

Thank you for having me (5), and, once again - congratulations on the 2nd anniversary. Please continue to support Honkai Star Rail and Ratio-kun in the future.

Translation notes:

I’m not sure which translation of the word is better, so I’m including both.

Literally, the sentence translates as "keep giving Ratio strength / become his strength" - HELLO YES WE WILL

The word for ‘still image’ is used. Probably referring to Ratio’s LC

The phrase used is “どうなんだろう” - which, from my perspective, doesn’t have a particular meaning. It’s mostly a general expression of “wondering about something”.

I HATE translating ‘yoroshiku onegaishimasu’! I don’t know how to put it into english words!!!

Additional notes:

The video on YouTube, check it out!

The amount of 'eh' and 'maa' in Takeuchi-san's speech is insane, he is just like me fr. Also, yeah, he keeps saying 'Ratio-kun' - i left it in the translation cause it's adorable.

I'll try to translate other messages from VAs soon!

[ratio-fan-6671011]

I only got 80%... Must. Reread. All Ratio official lore bits.

Hey, you.

Yes, you!!!

Are you a big fan of the fictional character Dr. Ratio from the hit game Honkai: Star Rail?

Do this quiz.

Have fun.

Ratio spotted in his natural habitat

Live from the Museum of Cosmonautics x HSR collab, I bring you footage of Dr. Ratio himself.

Honestly, did not expect to see him here, cause only other character stands are the Astral Express crew and 3.x characters.

Huge W for Hoyo for including him, in a little eccentric scholar corner, along with Anaxagoras. He's officially out of prison - educating people on real life cosmos.

Immediate UPD: Aven is there too?? Tagging along with his bf for real
