Genshin Impact Zhongli voice actor whales on Mavuika banner for wholesome reason
Mavuika is the latestGenshin Impactcharacter that is causing a stir within the game’s community, thanks to her amazing design and unique bike-based Pyro abilities. However, Zhongli’s voice actor had a lot on the line when it came to pulling her on the5.3 banner.
To kick off the New Year in styleZhongli’s Japanese voice actor, Tomoaki Maeno, streamed his banner pulls forMavuika. While many players have been saving theirPrimogemsand Intertwined Fates for her long-awaited release, Tomoaki Maeno has a personal reason for pulling for Teyvat’s fiery motorcyclist.
For those that don’t know, Mavuika is played by Mikako Komatsu a famous Japanese VA known for her roles inJujutsu KaisenandHonkai Star Rail. But how exactly does this tie into Zhongli’s VA’s love for Mavuika? Well, it also comes down to the wholesome fact that both Tomoaki Maeno and Mikako Komatsu are married.
So, to celebrate his wife’s role as Mavuika, Tomoaki decided to pull until he had C6 the Pyro Archon.

In a video uploaded toYouTube, Zhongli’s VA shared his pulls on the Mavuika banner much to the delight of his audience. The voice actor had even prepared a “scorching hot paradise” within his Serenitea Pot, which he hoped would entice the Pyro Archon to come home.
The simple room consisted of a chair surrounded by four fireplaces, which only added to the comical nature of his stream. However, despite the pre-pull ritual, Zhongli’s VA only seemed to pull everything but his real-life waifu.

Even when he finally thought he had secured Mavuika it turned out to be a surprise appearance fromKeqinginstead. Despite this, Tomoaki remained in good spirits and shrugged off his bad luck with a lot of nervous laughing.
Fortunately, after over an hour of pulling on Mavuika’s banner, Zhongli’s VA finally managed to C6 her. “I don’t have any regrets. It was long and I finally finished,” the VA laughed. The game’s community was also pleased that he managed to hit his target, with many joking that he’d be in trouble if he hadn’t pulled it off.
“Bro has to pull for C6R5 Mavuika otherwise he will sleep on the couch,”joked one commenter. “I think if he used up all the money his wife earned maxing out Mavuika he will be sleeping on the couch,”wrote another.
