NieR Re[in]carnation Character Videos

Starting today, the official NieR Re[in]carnation Twitter account will be sharing character introduction videos with us, starting with the Girl in White today.

Please note that the video itself is not currently available on YouTube, so I will edit this post later when it is. In the meantime, you can take a look from their tweet.

I will continue to edit this post to add any additional character introductions.


Girl in White

Translation:
“Do you know a spell to have sweet dreams?”

An awakened girl, closed-off hopes.

Sacrifice.

What I saw in the “Cage” were nightmares, faded dreams.

“But why do I always have such nightmares, even though I’m doing this?”


The Black Monster

Translation:
“I do not understand human emotion.”

What is their true identity? Their purpose?

Their emotions? Their desires? Their mind?

UNKNOWN.

Hidden words, lost dreams.
The black monsters*.

I don’t care who you are. Just shut up and give me dreams. I don’t care if it’s a nightmare or whatever else.“**


Vagabond Boy

Translation:
“I couldn’t stop the chief… my father.”

An unbreakable light.
Obtainable at the end of this journey you’ve prepared for.

Citizens, resist.

With a noble wish.

An unbreakable will, a noble oath.

“I have little time left...


Hunter with Prosthetics

Translation:
“I will get stronger and stronger, and one day…”

A nation in the turmoil of war.
Two sisters living modestly.

Hatred…
Weapons…
Gear…
Annihilation…
Solitude…

The flame of revenge…
The pain…

Cruel hope, stopped time.

“Thus, I have nothing more to lose…”


Mechanical Soldier

Translation:
“I just kept waiting for the time my body would rust…”

Made as a weapon,
A boy and the wilderness.

Forgotten emotion,
Wells up in my chest.

I must protect it no matter what,
The light of animus.

“I don’t need to obey anyone’s orders anymore…”

A machine’s prayer, constraints of loyalty.


Assassin

Translation:
“This tattoo I’ve inherited is proof of the role I bear…”

A bloody swordsman.
A blooming May flower.

Hold your breath.
Slay the heart.

Who is afraid, of butterflies dancing in the rain?

“Only with a sword does my existence make sense.”

Quiet wrath, a proud, blooming flower.
