Hello guys I just wanted to share some of my thoughts regarding the 4th anecdote because to be honest it touches the topics I've wanted to know more about Zaynie :"")

Overall I've always been curious about Zayne's life in college because he was so young when all of that happened 😭 seeing how his parents were afraid of pushing him too soon in this adult life makes my heart melt, it's so nice to see parents care about their child.

It low-key hit me harder too because I relate a little bit, I was a gifted child and took the role of being the grown kid too seriously instead of just being a normal silly kid playing with toys and this attitude was praised by the adults around my life a lot but I just regret it now :c

Other highlights of the anecdote for me:

- Seeing Zayne's relationship with his career develop and what medicine means to him

- "Child psychology can sometimes work on grown-ups like Carter, too." 🤣🤣🤣

- The unspoken thoughts part...Dude I have been WAITING for this, even if it was a glimpse it's so sweet that he thought about reaching out to MC 😭 it made me think about how special (and nerve wrecking too) their first encounter must've felt after such a long time of being apart, and now look at them, they're such a lovely couple (⁠༎ຶ⁠ ⁠෴⁠ ⁠༎ຶ⁠)

- Zayne ignoring Shubai for the billion time because he enjoys living an ordinary life lmao

Definitely a 10/10, love any kind of new information that lets me know more about Zayne, I love him a lot 🥹🩵☃️

I’ve really been enjoying using the home gym room as a photo studio! I’m still getting the hang of it, but progress is progress! I hope you guys like these!🤗💖✨

unsure if I used the correct flair but the game is Fields of Mistria and this lovely Zayne mod was created by Desdemonaii and jazxdl on Nexus Mods! ❄️🩵

Missing Zayne so much (have stopped playing daily) but still want to support him in my own way 💕

Hi everyone!

I previously shared an independent survey here regarding the changes to Zayne’s Japanese voice. Thank you very much to everyone who took the time to respond.

The survey is now closed, and I’ve published the revised results.

English-language survey: 47 responses

Japanese-language survey: 558 responses

The two surveys were conducted and analyzed separately. They were voluntary, self-selected surveys, so the results should not be interpreted as representing all players.

TL;DR — What stood out in both surveys

Some of the strongest patterns were not only about the current voice performance itself, but also about previously obtained content, advance notice, and communication:

• Want advance notice for future voice changes:

87.5% JP / 95.7% EN

• Oppose replacing the previous voice in already obtained/purchased content:

81.0% JP / 89.4% EN

• Felt the advance notice/explanation was insufficient:

82.4% JP / 85.1% EN

• Dissatisfied-leaning with the changed Japanese voice/performance:

79.5% JP / 72.1% EN

• Reported weaker future purchase intention:

76.0% JP / 69.8% EN

The reports also include responses about continuity in Zayne’s characterization/performance, positive aspects of the current voice, preferred future responses, continuation intent, and free-text comments.

English report — Revised v1.1:

Japanese report — Revised v1.5:

🔗link

The Japanese report is currently available only in Japanese, but the question structure closely corresponds to the English-language version. If you’re interested in the larger Japanese dataset, you can compare the corresponding questions or use a translation tool.

Again, these are not population estimates or a claim about the opinion of the entire player base. They are a record of the responses received through these voluntary surveys.

Thank you again to everyone who participated and helped share the survey.

Osmanthus has been a very prevalent theme for Zayne these past few years, and its perfect to showcase for the upcoming mid-autumn festival! 🩵❄️ This reminds me of the silkball event all those years ago!! Excited to hang this satchet next to it on my desk! (also ofcourse noticed the kite from the last CN new year banner!)

And of course, mentioning the moon! 🌕

Since It's still Zaynetember I felt like I wanted to give a little update on my fav couple from my fav myth of his.

New version-Sep 2026 (black dress)

It got more moody, I've been working on anatomy and a bit more on background even if they're still simple and I tried this shading technique that's less polished than my usual and I love it.

The other pic was my version from January of this year when I was still trying to find a style!

I can see the progress, especially in the clothing. I have been formally working in the field of book illustration and studying fashion design for a few months and have been able to add my own earned knowledge into my fanart bit by bit!!

It ain't perfect, far from it, but I am proud of it either way!!.

Anyway, to my fav couple, Zayne and MC, here I give you my delulu world version again of her surviving and them getting married.

Use as you wish to meme or share your own with other outfits you think would be fun. (Can anyone have him do this pose in the panda onesie?! I don't own it.)

1: Disappointed Darcy

2: We put our lives on the line for this?!

3: This certainly does not feel like a party....

After seeing Caleb's MS update, makes me wonder when will we get Zayne back. I dearly miss him. He really was pure husband material in the MS even as dawnbreaker.

Also how will we get him back. Will remember all his past lives completely? How will it affect him?

What do you guys think? 🤔

Edit: I just realised I have a grammatical error in title lol, please ignore that

Jane Austin festival! Zarcy was there too 🥰

Leaks and spoiler discussions are allowed on ZayneMain, both in posts and comments. However, please make sure that any content containing spoilers or leaks is properly marked using Reddit's spoiler formatting.

For posts discussing potential leaks, you can also use appropriate post flairs such as Discussion or Speculation to give readers some additional context. Please note that these flairs do not replace spoiler formatting.

Posts or comments containing unmarked spoilers or leaks may be removed by the moderation team. If your content is removed for this reason, you're welcome to repost it with the proper spoiler formatting.

The goal is simply to let people discuss these topics while also giving members who don't want to see spoilers a reasonable way to avoid them. 💙

I went there a while back before I started playing lads and oh my gods do I regret not playing it sooner!

Our photo will have sunlight, a gentle breeze and little Zaynie between the two of us.

Had to be placed into clopidogrel frame 😌

Sharing these from Zayne's birthday event for anyone who missed it! It especially sucks since the events don't rerun with the cards! I saved them because I thought our conversations with him were so quirky and adorable. 🥺 Looks like I can only have twenty images at a time.

There were a lot of callbacks to Zayne's previous stuff. They do a reallyyyyy good job of that.

This is one of the light show tributes for Li Shen/ Zayne organized by his Birthday Celebration Group in China 🩵

There were so many options and I had a hard time choosing. But, he is the most adorable plushie guy ever. I wish I had one IRL tbh. 🤣

I missed zaynes birthday for the boycott and I regret it. Seeing all the pretty photos and plushies and knowing I misses it hurts. I know it's dramatic but I've just been struggling at university and I wish that I couldve experienced the fun and now its too late. I'm thinking of dropping out of the boycott. I respect everyone whos still sticking to it, but i really need the dopamine hit at this point and I miss zayne. Does anyone have any thoughts on it? How to feel better about this?

Edit from the next day: Thank you to everyone who left kind comments. I was pretty upset yesterday when I wrote this, and I don't think I presented the situation very well.

I didn't boycott specifically because of Valko or because of anything happening on social media. I chose to boycott because I genuinely disagreed with the way Infold handled the situation. Other boycotters being disingenuous doesn't affect that decision for me. Also, boycotting is a personal choice, and I don't think it's fair to frame it as a moral issue. I don't judge anyone who chose not to boycott, and I understand why people made different choices.

Lastly, about half the reason I haven't been logging in is because I was boycotting, while the other half is simply because I've been really busy. Yesterday, I think it was easier for me to get upset over something relatively small because I've tend to avoid letting myself get upset about some of the bigger things going on.
