Are there any scenes in Hoyoverse titles that match this level of darkness?

I’ve been thinking about the darker moments across different Hoyoverse games and wondering if anything really compares to certain brutal scenes. Sure, Gun Girl Z had some pretty intense stuff, but lots of players say that game’s storyline was all over the place and hard to take seriously anyway.

When I look at Honkai Impact 3rd, even moments like Fu Hua getting seriously injured and having to recover didn’t feel quite as harsh to me. I’m curious if anyone can point to scenes from these games that are equally disturbing or maybe even worse? Looking for those really impactful traumatic moments that stick with you.

Genshin’s Childe story quest really messed me up, especially the part with his brother Teucer. Watching this kid idolize someone who’s basically a killing machine while being completely oblivious to it was genuinely unsettling. The way they handled that whole dynamic where Childe has to keep up this fake persona around family hit different than most of the other dramatic moments in these games.

That part in Chapter 9 of Honkai Impact with Himeko was rough. Still haunts me.

The Elysian Realm stuff in Honkai Impact gets pretty dark when you learn what actually happened to all those flame chasers. Finding out how they all died was brutal.

Honkai Star Rail’s Cocolia storyline hit pretty hard for me. The whole thing with her basically sacrificing everything for what she thought was right was genuinely disturbing to watch unfold.
