Twitter goes berserk as Genshin Impact reveals new Inazuma character, "Kazuha"

MiHoYo had teased the addition of a new Anema character in Genshin Impact, Kazuha, several days ago. This got the community quite excited, as he would be the only other Anemo character giving tough competition to Xiao, the only current Anemo DPS unit.

There was a lot of speculation regarding how useful this character was going to be when the trailer was released, with the majority of the community suggesting that it made no sense to pull for Kazuha if players already had Xiao on their roster. However, they also mentioned that Kazuha would be good for players who are just starting out.

Know more about Kazuha

Kazuha is described as "a wandering samurai from Inazuma with a modest and gentle personality."

Kazuha reveals his special ability as reading the signs of nature. He can always sense when it will rain or snow, even through a light gust of wind. That's how he always knows when to seek shelter.

Kazuha's Elemental Skill is Chihayafuru, which allows him to suck in his enemies towards him before launching them upwards. His Elemental Burst is Manyou no Ittou, which is often considered as one of the prettiest in the game.

Today, let's get to know the Ronin from Inazuma — Kaedehara Kazuha!This young man's calm personality belies a razor sharp blade that has seen many battles. View Details Here:https://t.co/5HxldCZJIN#GenshinImpact pic.twitter.com/Ah5Dk3Ij8k
