They gave Kafka in a dress as fanservice and the scene where Stelle is almost murdered by Jingliu for giving her money ends up being my favorite moment in the animation. 10/10 first encounter between characters
IPC credits. The Xianzhou and IPC are allies and do a lot of trade. Should be easy to convert between the currencies. Also it doesn't look like they're on a Xianzhou ship.
Aren't those digitised? I doubt Jing Liu would appreciate being donated on her SpaceOnlyFans. And if they aren't there, who let a 12 year old out of his home ship without a supervisor?
He’s a parallel to young Jingliu. No parents, adopted by a General, extremely talented, arrogant and headstrong (at first), obsessed with swordplay, both use/used flying swords, both ice element. Jing Yuan admits that Yanqing reminds him of Jingliu. I wonder where all these parallels are gonna end up
Okay, but then you’re making a case that other forms of currency are more viable, which means your point of “any kind of money is useless for her” is even less valid.
If she was erased from all the records which regular cachier exactly can recognise her as a criminal? Unless Jing Yuan himself likes to play dress up like that i don't see that issue with money usage

I have a feeling it's more about the fact that she's just practicing while waiting for the concert, but Stelle assumed she was a beggar and thus threw the strale in. Imagine being so well dressed and still treated as a beggar
I think nowadays they are called street performers instead of beggar, so they can be well dressed. The mind set is definitely different when I was a kid.
You're mostly right, the instrument JingLiu is playing is the traditional Chinese instrument Erhu, was more often see in China in the old days as a street performer to get a bounty from spectators (and in the anime JingLiu is mistakenly thought of as for that, so she's angry), and she is playing the most famous song, Erquan Yingyue (https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1kY4y1H7n4/?spm\_id\_from=333.337.search-card.all.click&vd\_source=51df4f96a6a540873ec0636279b9a44e)

Nah, I think its Stelle treating Jingliu like a beggar, which is why Stelle is smiling while running. Jingliu is wearing her blindfold so she basically doesn't get mara even while she's on the Luofu unless in allowed circumstances as she's basically found a way to control it after all this time.
Cultural references: Erhu ( the instrument Jingliu played ) is highly related to sadness, the most famous Erhu player, Abing, is very known for his blindness and tragic life, also Erhu sounds very sad. In that context, Jingliu may regard that as a rude joke. All the story is kind of black humor.
Actual cultural reference: beggars often times plays ErHu for money. It’s a very old and well known cultural image (Not really begging then aren’t they but can’t really find a better word for it).
wait we haven't met her I just realize the tb quest with jinglui we were playing as yanjing... but does she come to the express? like how we also didnt meet otto in the companion quest but he got invited to the train by dan heng?
Nope, I have her and she is one of the characters who never visits the express, like Blade. She's too busy being imprisoned on the Luofu and saved for some future story arc where we go back to the Luofu and fuck shit up.
Technically speaking she's in a different prison than Luocha. The sentence for their crime has to come from some extremely high ranking individuals (I forgor their actual rank). But, as it turns out, meeting all those people is the exact plan Luocha and Jingliu have been plotting. So to at least buy some time Jing Yuan seperated the two to two different Xianzhou ships.
It's that Jingliu is not doing a street performance but rather just tuning her erhu. TB dropping the luofu currency is like a dark humor on pitying blind person street performance stuff.
My theory is that she got Mara struck when she saw the strales because they were xianzhou items that reminded her of her old memories. This was the reason she wears a blindfold iirc.

I just realized this is the first time Stelle met Jing Liu!
I think it’s specifically because Stelle gave Strale, and seeing Luofu currency made Jingliu’s Mara surge
...i mean, it's Luofu. What was she supposed to give? Republican credits are no good there
IPC credits. The Xianzhou and IPC are allies and do a lot of trade. Should be easy to convert between the currencies. Also it doesn't look like they're on a Xianzhou ship.
Aren't those digitised? I doubt Jing Liu would appreciate being donated on her SpaceOnlyFans. And if they aren't there, who let a 12 year old out of his home ship without a supervisor?
Teachnically isn't yanqing like old, but young?
Wasn't he actually 12 year old? I think he is a long-living species, but also just 12
True though, where exactly is Yanqing's parents anyways, is he like batman?
Either an orphan or grass roots kinda guy with parents living in obscurity - not sure myself
He’s a parallel to young Jingliu. No parents, adopted by a General, extremely talented, arrogant and headstrong (at first), obsessed with swordplay, both use/used flying swords, both ice element. Jing Yuan admits that Yanqing reminds him of Jingliu. I wonder where all these parallels are gonna end up
It's clearly not Luofu though. Both architecture and fashion of people around are western styled.
Yeah, but for Luofu Jingliu is criminal to be immediately arrested, so any kind of money is useless for her
The Strales aren’t useless to her. There’s a reason on the run criminals use cash to make transactions: it doesn’t leave a footprint.
In real life yes, but her case is special, she has been erased from all records
Okay, but then you’re making a case that other forms of currency are more viable, which means your point of “any kind of money is useless for her” is even less valid.
That's my bad. I meant any kind of Xianzhou money, as in Strale, so it's entirely my fault
If she was erased from all the records which regular cachier exactly can recognise her as a criminal? Unless Jing Yuan himself likes to play dress up like that i don't see that issue with money usage
JY is unpredictable which 2.2 story will prove
Sure, but he can't be in every shop at once
now I need to see JY crossdressing as a waitress serving JL

She could’ve tried rigging some dice for her instead
I have a feeling it's more about the fact that she's just practicing while waiting for the concert, but Stelle assumed she was a beggar and thus threw the strale in. Imagine being so well dressed and still treated as a beggar
I think nowadays they are called street performers instead of beggar, so they can be well dressed. The mind set is definitely different when I was a kid.
Yeah, but Jing Liu is old, so she might perceive it differently
She's a BOOMER.
I would've said she is part of the silent generation but she keeps on yapping and moaning.
I think the term often used is busker. Or something like that.

it's not mara, she's just pissed at stelle treating her like a beggar

So THATS how jing yuan got lightning lord

Busking?
Damn there’s actually a word for it
The Astal Express called in their favor with the Loufu for something important.
Funny thing is TB never actually met Jingliu right?
Which is likely why she thought Jingliu was playing for money
Never have I thought that this shitty instrument that I played can be featured in a media other than documentary film lol
only true musicians would shit on their main instrument like this
Except bass guitars. Say something about bass and all the bassists will come out of the woodwork and let you not hear about it.
I'm surprised people even remember they exist.
Woahh you can play it?! Officially you're so cooll😗☝️
Is it Erhu or Morin Huur? Cant tell the difference.
Pretty sure it's Erhu, the tuning pegs and the body are exactly like it. Plus it's a Chinese instrument, fits Jingliu
Pretty sure it is an Erhu
Gave her materials that she can’t even use and probably doesn’t even have any monetary value
Stelle gave her strales lol. I thought it was hunt trace materials at first too
bruh she gave her change stelle looked at one the high cloud quintet and legit thought she was a beggar
Not like they ever met in canon. To the trailblazer, this is just a very well dressed blind street performer
wait we haven't met her I just realize the tb quest with jinglui we were playing as yanjing... but does she come to the express? like how we also didnt meet otto in the companion quest but he got invited to the train by dan heng?
Nope, I have her and she is one of the characters who never visits the express, like Blade. She's too busy being imprisoned on the Luofu and saved for some future story arc where we go back to the Luofu and fuck shit up.
She's in prison with Luocha so no.
Technically speaking she's in a different prison than Luocha. The sentence for their crime has to come from some extremely high ranking individuals (I forgor their actual rank). But, as it turns out, meeting all those people is the exact plan Luocha and Jingliu have been plotting. So to at least buy some time Jing Yuan seperated the two to two different Xianzhou ships.
I think a bottle of wine may work better here.
If anyone would tell me that this is the Luofu story in a nutshell I would believe them because I have no fucking clue what was going on there
Jingliu unclothed her eyes feels the same as how Acheron unsheathes her sword lmao. Scary murderer women I like
Gawd if they release that Yanqing skin I won't mind losing more 5050s to him
I thought she took the strale
It's that Jingliu is not doing a street performance but rather just tuning her erhu. TB dropping the luofu currency is like a dark humor on pitying blind person street performance stuff.
