    This wasn't realistic because there weren't 6 bastions waiting for Hanzo at the offering site.

    "No! My brother is dead!" "I respawned."
  • "Seeking power, I killed my brother. But without him, I am lost." That line and how it was delivered hit me with lots of feels.

    Genji and Hanzo were both sons of the master of a powerful, yet evil, ninja clan. Genji was a wealthy playboy, born rich and privileged, and while he was just as skilled as his older brother Hanzo, he never really wanted anything to do with the illegal business of the clan. Once the master died unexpectedly, the elders of the clan required Genji and Hanzo to take over and lead the clan. However, Genji still refused, preferring to take his own path. In response, the elders commanded Hanzo to straighten him out. This resulted in a battle that didn't end well for Genji. Having killed his brother (or so he thought), Hanzo was heartbroken, and rejected his birthright, leaving the clan completely. Hanzo became a wandering soul, seeking to regain his honor by mastering his skills on the battlefield as a mercenary/assassin all over the world. Overwatch found Genji's broken body, and seeing his potential, decided to save him, if he would pledge himself to helping their cause. Genji agreed, allowing Overwatch to take what remained, and transform him into a cyborg warrior (half-human, half machine). During his time with Overwatch, Genji also devoted himself to completely dismantling the clan he was once a part of, and pretty much succeeded, making them a shell of what they once were. However, Genji had never been able to fully come to grips with his new existence, and eventually left Overwatch. During his travels, he came in contact with Zenyatta, the traveling robot/monk, who helped him find true peace, as well as the will to forgive his brother for what he had done to him. Genji is now wise beyond his years, having spent much time with Zenyatta, and adopting many of his principles. What we see in this video, is the continuation of their story.

    2:56 "You are not the first assassin sent to kill me. And you are not the last" 6 Bastions and 4 Meis were sent before this, and 4 more Symmetras are about to approach.
