Aside from pursuing her athletic passion, Medvedeva is also deeply invested in anime.

By recreating the iconic transformation scene with challenging triple jumps, she hopped right into the hearts of countless anime lovers.

Brave and beautiful, soft yet powerful, artistic physique, titanic willpower, uncompromising self-transcendence, the dancing miracle on ice, are all synonymous with world-class figure skater Evgenia Medvedeva.

Both Evgenia Medvedeva, who represents real-world athletic arts, and Honkai Impact 3rd, which represents the adventurous spirit of fictional Valkyries, interpret the unison of beauty and strength, as well as coming-of-age stories in their unique ways. What reaction will their collision spark? Stay tuned!

The collaboration video was filmed in 2020 Q3. Evgenia has recovered and resumed training. Please look forward to her performance in the following open championships.
