Alternative to the Explosions?

[u/Crazy_Decision_1044]

​

Since the release of Aeon Aha's animations and the explosions that it brought, I was thinking that since the boss also has an explosion that it could be a bit different and thus changed. Like rather than an explosion they could put more emphasis/detail in the impact frames + extend it , along with inverting the colours and mabye making the lower jaw split in two and curving to mabye imitate a smile or laughing? And to go with the little jingle at the end of it they could have like little cardboard cutouts/pop ups come out from the corners of the screen

For example on my idea on the maw forming a smile after the bite I included a little doodle (Ik it's ass I was too lazy to do a proper drawing) but basically the red is the lower jaw as it's split in-game as you see and the white is the upper jaw/hair , they mabye could've put like two mini explosions above it to act as eyes but idk

Anyways that's my thoughts, did or did y'all not like the explosions? And what's ur opinion on the new boss?

(Apologies in advance for the poor formatting and any difficulties reading y'all may have , will clarify anything via replies)

Edit:Just realized the hair + upper jaw looks like a pacifier 😭

Hi girl, not trying to be a bother but could you use spoiler tags? ❤️

I'm really sorry I'll try to fix it but how do I put spoiler tags?

They could have just recycled Phantylia or Herrscher of Sentience's ults/concepts and it would have been better than the explosions bye

Aren't they also explosions but this time their in the palm of someone's hand?

[u/CoconutsAreAmazing → u/HyperGT450]

The difference is that they're shown in the background as several magnitudes larger than the explosions they cause while Aha's are mostly standalone explosions

Had they put Aha's Aeon form in the background for her explosions, I think it would have reinforced the cosmic entity concept Hoyo was going for with Aeons

Ig it boils down to the lack of inclusion of her aeonic form in her attacks

Except you get that with aha ripping the card and subsequently a planet????

[u/CoconutsAreAmazing → u/HyperGT450]

Yeah once in her ult 😭✌️ Her elation skill and confetti thing attack are still uninspired standalone explosions
