[ 011223 EDITION ]
GENSHINBLR — NOVEMBER, 2023 EDITORIAL
EXTRA! EXTRA! Over here, dear reader! As we enter the twelfth month of the year, read up on what’s happened this past month of November on Genshin Tumblr!
From your Editors: Crow and Ely.
COLLECTIVES — November Events !
TRENDING! || From Journalist @meidnightrain
1989 Event — 21 songs to 21 fics with the Genshin characters; A celebration to the release of Taylor Swift’s 1989 album, with fluff, angst, and hurt / comfort galore! Our journalist Meisha takes us through the re-recorded album with various Genshin characters X GN! Reader ranging from Aether, to Furina, and many more in between!

Reader. Our editor Ely executes horror through her writing, so readers, please heed her warnings carefully in each fic!
COLUMN — Individual Spotlight !
LET TWO EYES BE UNDECEIVED, Lyney / By Editor @rainswept
Summary from the editor: Growing up with you by his side, falsities were always something Lyney could see through. He preferred not to use them, not for a long time — but once you were gone and he and Lynette were left without someone to do the group’s dirty work, he forced himself to inherit the way of living you left behind.
“So excited for this one! Editor Crow’s been showing me their progress—honestly such a must-read for Lyney fans when it comes out, teehee.” — Editor Ely.
YOU’RE SO RED, ARE YOU OKAY?, Furina / By Journalist @definitelynotaneulasimp
A comedic review by Journalist Henry, in which the Archon of Hydro attempts at a date, but all goes wrong when she develops a terrible case of hiccups. Rumor has it: This fic is a part of Henry’s 1.5k Followers Event!
Want more Genshin women content? Definitely check out Henry’s own blog for characters like Ei, Navia, and more!
GOODNIGHT, Various Genshin Men / By Journalist @strawberrylabs
Did you know: Lyney, Freminet, Kazuha, Venti, Cyno and Childe have voice lines about you, dear reader?! If you’re having trouble falling asleep, hear what these characters have to say all about you!
A SIMPLE MISSION, Neuvillette / By Journalist @alaboadoa
Rumor has it: The Duke and the Iudex were caught whispering privately about you?! Read as Journalist Soph gossips all the juicy details about their conversation—it seems Monsieur Neuvillette might have a crush on you!
Just recently released: Journalist Soph also just recently released a new entry for Ayato, “INK TO PAPER.” Both of these works are featured in her 1k milestone event!
ONE CHANCE (PT.2), Various Genshin Men / By Journalist @ayaboba
“You give them one chance. How do they use it?” Journalist Anya returns with Kazuha, Lyney, Wanderer, and Zhongli—all who have just one last chance with you. Be sure to also check our her part one of this entry with Alhaitham, Diluc, Neuvillette, and Wriothesley, linked in her entry!
WHEN THEY LOSE YOU, Various Genshin Men / By Journalist @yrbladie
Ayato, Diluc, Kaeya, Neuvillette, Zhongli — ever in the mood for angst and no comfort? Then Journalist Naeris delivered us painful excepts on five different Genshin men and how they act after ( spoiler! ) losing you.
With Journalist Naeris also being on the rise and joining the writing train, be sure to check out all the other works she has published this month, as well!
FEATURE — The Editors’ Favorites !
YOUR SHADOW UNDER THE ILLUSORY MOON., Lyney / By Journalist @dulcesiabits
“this piece genuinely moved me. journalist liya’s writing is beautiful, and out of hundreds — maybe even thousands — of works that i have read, this has remained my favorite. it had me hanging on every word and i could genuinely feel the emotion put into it — her word choices and the way she conveys the scenes are profound in a way i cannot hope to describe. the ties and parallels part one has with PART TWO are so smart, too. hands down the most immersive and touching writing i’ve ever had the pleasure to read.” — Editor Crow.
JEALOUS-!, Ayato / By Journalist @jinxlixir
“LOVED this one! Takes place in a modern school AU with Ayato as the student council prez, and reader as his vice prez! The concept is every hopeful cliché, and Journalist Jinx did an amazing job characterizing Ayato so well—this one definitely stayed in my head for a while!”
“Not to mention: This little snippet is a continued concept of Jinx’s OTHER AYATO PIECE, one that’s much longer and written excellently!! I was practically squealing the whole time I read it… Ignore my tags if you decide to scroll through the notes.” — Editor Ely.

This week on Ensemble News
The newest Crazy:B event has the community busted. Several theories, notes and analyses have appeared as a consequence.
Last week's catastrophy regarding the Enstars assets Drive appears to have settled down, however, the future of the drive is still unknown.
Ensemble News, our account, is finally running! Round of applause, we hope you support us through our journey.

Crazy Anthem and its landmarks
The newest Crazy:B music video for their song "Crazy Anthem" has been released. Because of this, the fandom has been making speculations about the possible landmarks that the video may feature, alongside theories and other writings.
A user on Twitter ¹ has deciphered many of the possible locations in which Crazy:B appears through the video and, possible, during their event story.
The video happens in California, as the event synopsis explains, but it looks like their route starts in San Francisco and finishes in Baja California, Mexico.
Curious about the locations? Here are some of the ones the fandom was able to find;
— Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills
"Venus Beach" — Venice Beach, California
— Walk of Fame, Hollywood
— Los Cabos, Baja California, Mexico

The Enstars assets Drive and its future
The past May 18th, the Enstars wiki Twitter account made an important post ¹ spreading awareness about the current state of the assets drive held by the account @.gradualcolors. The Twitter thread written explained that the assets drive — in which all cards, art, chibis, gifs, voice packs, and etc. are hosted, was going to be taken down due to multiple DMCA violations.
A week later, @.gradualcolors mod replies:
"All I want to say is that I want to stick with my belief of "assets = fandom creativity" and I'll try my best to maintain the new drive when I put it out again. I want to keep seeing how ppl decorate their social media with those files or do fun things like reading guides!!
Tldr; drive gone, will be re-hosted because I want to, rip my wallet tho.
- H.E. had precedent to nuke the drive for reposting reasons so pls be careful posting fan created edits
- Lemme see the cool edits and cute carrds you guys use these files for when drive comes back" (Rai via twt) ²
We don't know how much time it'll take them to make the proper accomodations to restore the folders, but we sure hope the struggles seize sooner than later.

How to color your divider to match your theme!!
Wanted to thank @sulieykte for teaching me how to do it, ilysm bb! 🩵
Want to know how to do gradients?
`·..➭ Step 1 — You're going to need a divider, you can use this one. [best to do this all on a computer, much easier]. Go to Photopea.com and drop the divider in it. [Note, you have to do it in one sitting cause Photopea does not save]. Right click to save.
`·..➭ Step 2 — You're going to click on the square once you got your divider on the website, that's how you're going to change the divider color.
`·..➭ Step 3 — You're going to click on this rectangle that's on the top left part of the screen that happens after you do step one.
This box will pop up after you click on the rectangle.
`·..➭ Step 4 — Click on the bottom left square then click the square that shows the color!
This box is important, it's where you can pick the color you want for the divider, what I do is put one of my gradient colors hexcode in where it has the # so it can at least match one of the colors but you can do two colors on it by clicking the square that on the bottom right and putting your other gradient color hexcode!
`·..➭ Step 5 — If you're doing one color, you have to put this to 100 so that color is the only one that shows on the divider, if you doing two colors, you can adjust the position to how you want it.
`·..➭ Step 6 — So after you pick the color(s) you want, you can exit the box and then you're going to click the beginning of the divider and drag it to the end of it and release, it'll change to the color(s) you picked.
`·..➭ Step 7 — THIS IS IMPORTANT! In order for it to show up on both computer and phone, this step has to be done, For Mac users click, option + command + i, for Windows users click, alt + ctrl + i for this box to pop up!
Make sure the chain is on and then change the 3 to a 4, 3 is what I use cause it works but just in case you try it with the 3 and it's not showing up on either device, definitely upload your divider to photopea again and change it to a 4.
`·..➭ Step 8 — In the last step, you're going to click file and export it as a png to get better quality. Note — What I do is put the divider in a brand new post to test it and keep it in my drafts, if you're using Firefox like me, drafts will be a lifesaver cause you can't drag the divider to one tab to the other like you can in safari and google, the trick is to right click on the divider and copy image and go to your post and paste the divider wherever you want it to go and it's good to go.
I hope this was helpful to everyone, if you have any questions you can send an ask or even dm and I'll help!! 🥰

This week on Ensemble News
With the announcement of the Ra*bits climax event, fans decide to theorize about the possible meanings behind the MV that we'll discuss today.
A fandom project that has gained popularity, the "Ensemble Stars!! Cookbook" is currently in it's interest check, more information about this project ahead.
Want to know more? Stay with us
▶ Fandom Section
Ra*bits Climax Event
The MV for the newest Ra*bits event has been previewed, the song, "Parallel Mazes" happens to contain not only a detailed scenario but also references and winks to the past of the unit, the same way we saw Crazy:B's "Crazy Anthem" go through a similar process.
In a determined part of the video, we're able to see Ra*bits crossing a bridge while looking at their old selves, but the interesting part of it is the poses they make.
A couple of fans decided to discuss these poses trying to find their meaning, to what the conclusions so far have reached two different possibilities.
A user on Twitter ¹ deduced that their poses have to do with them imitating people that have had an important influence for Ra*bits individually, or, people that they look up to.
However, there's also another possibility that people have pointed out, and that is their similarities with Undead and fine.
The argument behind this has to do with the analogy of Heaven and Hell that these two units form.
In any case, both theories have interesting funds, so let us know your opinion about them!

The Ensemble Stars Cookbook
The Ensemble Stars Cookbook is a zine leaded by Posebean, which consists in the recollection of food recipes with an Ensemble Stars theme, the information in their site states:
"Niki's cookbook is an upcoming unofficial cookbook fanzine centered all around cooking!
It will contain art, writing, merch all based off food, and self-made recipes that are specifically themed around various units/idols/groups of Ensemble StarsThe specs of the zine are still up in the air and will be finalized after the interest check has concluded, as well as whether the zine will be for profit, for charity, or both.More detailed information can be found in our Primary Info Doc, as well as application guidelines and contributor expectations.
The goal is to have at least one recipe per unit and one recipe per member of Niki’s kitchen (except for Niki, who should have 2 recipes). There may also be other recipes themed after shuffle units, circles, dorms, other characters in general, specific events, and etc… if all of the goal recipes have been filled.
There will be art pieces to match some of the recipes, as well as stand-alone art pieces with the theme of cooking and food. Small anecdotes written in the character’s perspectives will be scattered throughout, and writing will be short scenes also centered around cooking and food." (Niki's Cookbook via Google Docs) ¹
As mentioned before, the project is currently in its interest check phase, so we encourage everyone interested to fill it out and contribute. The form can be found in the project's social media.

Love For All: Forever Palestine 🇵🇸!Remembering Rachel Corrie!
Rachel Corrie's legacy of human rights activism lives on 21 years after she was crushed to death by a 60-tonne Israeli-operated bulldozer while acting as a human shield in the Palestinian Rafah refugee camp.
The American activist was 23 years old and in her final year of college when she decided to see Gaza - which was in the midst of the Second Intifada — firsthand.
Since her death, Rachel's parents, Cindy and Craig Corrie, have been fighting for accountability, suing the Israeli military and defence ministry in 2010.
An Israeli district court announced the verdict of the trial in 2012, ruling that Rachel was in a war zone and that Israel was therefore not responsible for her death, clearing the Israeli military and the driver of the bulldozer of any wrongdoing.
The ruling was condemned by human rights defenders and she has, since, become one of the symbols of the Palestinian Cause.
