Why do Nanook and Blade Face Look Familiar in Honkai Star Rail?

Honkai Star Rail 1.2 Update was released recently and with that, we got to witness a brand new character named Blade. Before this update, we got another character named Nanook. But, Why do Nanook and Blade Face Look Familiar in Honkai Star Rail? Strangely enough, due to the deep lore of the game itself, speculations are going way beyond what the developers thought. Let’s discuss that below.

Appearance of Nanook

Nanook has long hair that reaches his shoulders and then goes beyond. The color of his skin is dark with grey and gold tone, while his hairs are white. He got a long face with an attitude of seriousness.

When it comes to his eyes, they are golden in color, while have a strange look to them.

Appearance of Blade

Just like Nanook, Blade has a long face with a seriousness or attitude. He is white, with long hair, reaching his shoulders and then going beyond.

Going to the color side, his hair is blue with a strange tint to them, while his eyes are red/orange. More or less, both look similar in their appearance.

Do Nanook and Blade Face Look Familiar in Honkai Star Rail

Yes, they do look familiar, but the reason behind them is simply “Hoyoverse Same Face Syndrome”. The previous games of Hoyoverse also had the same theme going on, where characters looked similar.

Developers take the design of the characters and change them around to save time, as well as their budget. Nanook and Blade, both are completely different characters, belonging to different races and backgrounds.

Another reason is that both of these male characters have attitude or seriousness on their face. It looks as if they are ready to take on a fight with someone and punch them on the face.
