There are manyGenshin Impactcharacters that have become player favorites, spawning creative fan art and other impressive creations inspired by them. OneGenshin Impactfan has decided to celebrate their favorite character in the miHoYo action RPG with a unique shirt that blends theGenshinuniverse with a classic meme.
Reddit user Vivdarlin recently posted a photo of someone modeling theirGenshin Impactt-shirt, which shows a different side of Xiao than players are familiar with in-game.Genshin Impact’s Xiao is anAnemo user inGenshin Impactthat uses Polearms and is typically found in Wangshu Inn when fans aren’t playing as him after likely obtaining the hero from the “Invitation to Mundane Life” event. Xiao follows the Alatus Nemeseos constellation, and this shirt reflects the space influence fromGenshin Impact. Furthermore, he’s often wearing a dark Oni mask that is also reflected in Vivdarlin’s design.

Vivdarlin’s shirt showsGenshin Impact’s Xiaoin the center of a mostly purple frame above some Japanese writing that acts as a title to an iTunes song, with the play, fast-forward, and rewind symbols all represented at the bottom. Xiao is removing his Oni mask on Vivdarlin’s shirt to reveal his crying face that reflects the I am fine meme of a sobbing character with bloodshot eyes putting a smiling mask on their face. InGenshin Impact, Xiao is also known as the Bane of All Evil, and when he dons this mask, his suffering is emphasized in-game as his health is drained in exchange for enhanced combat abilities.
According to Vivdarlin, the Japanese characters spell out the voice lines said byGenshin Impactvoice actor Yoshitsugu Matsuoka when players use two ofXiao’s elemental skillsbefore unleashing a burst “as a Xiao main would.” Vivdarlin has confirmed thatGenshin Impactfans that like their Xiao-themed meme shirt can purchase it on their Spring page alongside other merch, and it costs just under $25. ThisGenshin Impactfan has also turned the Xiao design into a sweater and sticker so that players can represent Xiao in a number of ways.
OneGenshin Impactfan responding to Vivdarlin’s Reddit post shared that the Japanese characters are “Kudaranai,” meaning worthless, “Mudada,” being useless, and “Kiero,” translating to disappear. AnotherGenshin Impactplayer speculated that Xiao is listening to a song given the design of Vivdarlin’s shirt while complimenting its creativity, suggesting it would be theBerserkanimesoundtrack from 4 Gatsu. Vivdarlin has assured one Xiao critic that her main is well taken care of and is fed “plenty of almond tofu” beyond being celebrated through this customGenshin Impactshirt.
