The Raiden Shogun (Chinese: 雷电将军; pinyin: Léidiàn Jiāngjūn) is a character from Genshin Impact, a 2020 action role-playing gacha game developed by miHoYo. Added in a 2021 update for the game, she was initially a boss enemy for players to fight, and then later released as a playable character. In all appearances the character is voiced by Anne Yatco in English, Juhuahua in Chinese, Miyuki Sawashiro in Japanese, and Park Ji-yoon in Korean. Within the game's story, she is the ruling Archon of the game's Inazuma region. Consisting of two separate beings, the puppet body "Shogun" and the consciousness of Archon Raiden Ei (雷电影; Léidiàn Yǐng), she originally acts as an authoritarian and stern ruler. As the game's story unfolds the two aspects come into conflict with one another, and in the aftermath the Raiden Shogun adopts a more forward thinking approach to governing her nation. The Raiden Shogun was positively received upon release, with players creating memes based on her portrayal and inability to cook, and has been one of the highest revenue generating characters for miHoYo. This has led to several studies to understand her appeal, some of which attributed it to the heavy Japanese influences of her design, while others focused on the character's sex appeal. She has also been discussed in regards to the quality of the game's story, and in criticism of its localization. Her story arc as a whole has been praised by some for its depth and portrayal of both grief, as well as the conflict between emotion and logic, but there has been criticism aimed at its handling and portrayal of Ei's personality.
