Star Rail Animated Music Video

Fans of Honkai: Star Rail can now view the animated music video, “What The Ripple Sees,” created for the HoYoFair event. The video’s release follows a delay from its originally scheduled date of December 3, 2025.

A Collaborative Animation Effort

The animation was storyboarded and unit directed by AoiSora, who also served as colour scripter and animation producer. AoiSora’s previous work includes the “Sea Major” teaser for the 2025 New Year fan art programme Tide & Seek and a commercial for Fate/Grand Order.

The song “What The Ripple Sees” is performed by Mili. AoiSora expressed gratitude for the contributions of long-time collaborators, noting their “unwavering trust and support” in a YouTube comment accompanying the video.

HoYoFair and Fan Creations

HoYoFair is described as a presentation of fan works inspired by HoYoverse intellectual properties. This event provides a platform for showcasing creations derived from popular titles like Honkai: Star Rail and Zenless Zone Zero.

A possible next step for HoYoFair could be the expansion of featured IPs or the introduction of new categories for fan submissions. Analysts expect continued interest in events that bridge the gap between developers and their player base.
