Bruh...
Author really ripped off genshin but called her Mesugaki XD
The artstyle looks so generic that I almost thought it’s AI, but no, the artist is just
that boring.
But whether it’s AI or not, I find it especially funny that the author tries to pass off the main girl as someone named “Mesugaki”, than
the female player stand-in of a giant Chinese gacha game as it is.

Admittedly I wouldn’t be against it if they’re honest with their ripoff, but they didn’t even change the hairstyle.
I dont remember Mesugaki acting like a slut and bratty in Gensh*n *mpact. This must be her alter ego or something
So here's the thing: "Mesugaki" メスガキ is a normal Japanese slang word, and has been in use for at least several decades.
It's a common derogatory term meaning a "little bitch", and it comes from the combination of these two words:
- "Mesu" is the technical word for a female animal. When used for humans, it has all the insulting implications of "bitch". When combined with the word for pig you get the lovely "mesubuta" i.e. "you fucking dirty sow"
- "Gaki" is a generic impolite term for a young person, normally junior high age or lower, and implies that they are annoying or trying to play above their station in the ladder of maturity.
If an inexplicably popular shitty chinese/japanese game which appeared less than 3 years ago happened to use an insulting word for one of the characters, that's entirely irrelevant to the origin of the name.
I won't comment on the dev's choice to use the name in this specific game because it looks kinda trash.
Consider yourselves educated.
