While the previous day’s weepy Castorice backstory animation remains fresh, Honkai: Star Rail has wasted no time in switching gears to deliver something more light-hearted (from viewers’ perspective, at least) for April Fool’s Day. The RPG’s latest animation is a trailer for The Grand Restaurant, a fake movie that has characters like Castorice and Phainon fighting culinary battles in the kitchen.
There’s no shortage of kitchen drama here, with Hyacine collapsing and Phainon getting socked in the face. A less po-faced highlight is Cypher flying off the screen at the sight of cucumbers.
Here’s the video’s description:
Raise your glasses and toast to a feast like no other, where the western winds fade into golden revelry. On April 1st, Year 4██1 of the Light Calendar, The Grand Chrysos eagerly awaits your arrival! “Honestly, I think “the Grand Restaurant” has a better ring to it.” “Uh… Your taste in names is certainly… one of a kind.”
