Also while I'm mostly using him as secondary DPS, I'm pretty sure you can use Anaxa as a main DPS and do extremely well with him without needing an insane investment. I've even heard of some people using him on break comps.
If it's not a trailer or in an Owlbert segment, then yes, pretty much. If there's no in-game alert telling me to check something (which usually means a trailer), then I don't usually see it.
I remember Herta having a funny trailer and like Thanos popping up at the tail end of various patches to remind everybody she exists without doing much, and that's it. She was advertised because she was a recurring character we knew about, but in-universe she has been about as relevant as Screwllum who isn't even playable yet (and even in this latest patch it's him who pops up to chat on behalf of the Geniuses).
Herta's most important featuring I remember was during the latest Simulated Universe update with the scepters, which probably was both the least interesting to play and the most relevant in the grand scheme of things. Even then, she shared the spotlight with Screwy and Ruan Mei.

...We get notified about the animated shorts. You're actively ignoring the secondary media that this idiotic debate is about
Meanwhile, I just see Castorice as "of course the pretty one is designed with a meta-defining kit so people who don't just pull for looks can pull for kit instead. Of course she gets all the marketing despite being no more lore important than her fellow Chrysos Heirs."

Anaxa was on the anniversary banner and he didn’t get too much marketing
Acheron is actually important though? That aside I do prefer that Cyrene stay short mostly because I find the sheer contrast more amusing
I absolutely cannot help but adore handsome 2D boysWe're getting a heavily-marketed main DPS every other patch now. The anniversary doesn't really figure into it
And, yes, Cyrene is short. I don't expect it to be meaningful or end up changing
I'm seeing people on the subreddit saying Cyrene stopped aging and that they're expecting her to get an adult/older form but I'm not sure I believe that myself. They could make her playable while still keeping her current design. The creators clearly have no qualms with marketing her as a love interest despite her being a child so...
Eh, I'm fine either way, but I kinda do guess that she'll have a Super Mode where she grows taller (like Phainon)
Having watched "Hark! There's Revelry Atop the Divine Mountain" again and reading his page again, where exactly did the idea that the Zephyro Phainon fought is a simulation by Irontomb come from? Part of the cinematic literally shows the Antimatter Legion pour in from Nanook's golden viewing window implying they're entering in from outside, so couldn't the real Zephyro do the same? Also why would Irontomb even have Zephyro's simulation data? I dunno that idea just doesn't make sense to me.
I'm a little confused why we're treating her current form as the final one, we literally saw her in an adult form when Amphoreus was first announced. Her kid form screams "NPC pre-playable design" to me.
Maybe they'll keep it the same but the certainty I'm seeing just isn't justified.

X2 because he's glitching around in the same way as the program after a point.

and
The only glitch in the cinematic is the Black Tide effect on Phainon's meteor and Zephyro teleporting to cut off his arm. Nothing else, and the former could simply be because it's being destroyed.
Doesn't really nullify the Antimatter Legion from seemingly coming in from 'elsewhere', and it not making sense for Zephyro's data to be on Irontomb, plus Zephyro and Phainon being outside Amphoreus in that one shot. For all we know the effect is just something that happens with Destruction that Zephyro can also do as a Lord Ravager. Look I just think it's cooler if that was the real Zephyro and not a fake, and I feel there's more evidence for him being real than a simulation.
What's my best team, I got Dan Heng, Bronya, Cipher, Gepard, Clara, Preservation MC, Sushang, Sampo, Natasha, 4 star Herta, March, Asta, Qingque, Yukong, Xueyi, Serval and Tingyun
Beat the Jarlio-VI story and the boss for leveling up Cipher
Buffalo Chicken pizzas and Cheez-It pizzas are the GOAT; Aromantic cynic all the wayI'd say right now something like Cipher, Bronya, Tingyun and Gepard.
If you've got the pulls (and you like the character) among the currently available ones I suggest aiming for Tribbie. She is an extremely versatile support who dishes very decent damage, fits in many teams, and if you ever have to face a Quantum-weak enemy then her, Cipher and Xueyi will make mincemeat of it.

I think people generally consider Gallagher and Aventurine as sustains, not supports
...JQ exists, though
