Research on Victoria Housekeeping in Zenless Zone Zero

Victoria Housekeeping Co. is a faction that can offer more services than just maintaining your household. This team of domestic helpers accepts commissions to keep your homes dust-free and your Hollows Ethereal-free.

On June 20, 1837, Alexandrina Victoria was only eighteen years old when she was informed that she would become the new English monarch. She could never have imagined that she would preside over the final prosperous years of her reign, which came to be known as the Victorian era. Moreover, the royal family that bore her name gradually became synonymous with elegance and grandeur.

Britain used its overwhelming might to establish a world-class industrial level during this time.

Despite the transformation in industry, the social order grew increasingly antiquated. Employing servants was considered a common attribute of gentlemen in that era. The wealthy middle class also started hiring servants to demonstrate their social standing, in addition to the princes and nobles, which resulted in a significant rise in the total number of servants. First-class nobility employed large numbers of servants, as it was considered an expression of power and rank.

Before the Victorian era, manservants' first positions were as deacons and butlers.

However, the necessity for maids expanded significantly when England declared it taxable to employ manservants in the home—after all, maids are less expensive than manservants.

There was no uniform dress code for maids back then, and the majority of them covered up their vibrant outfits with an apron. During this time, the traditional maid's attire—a long, dark skirt matched with a white bib, apron, and hair cover—was developed.

The Victorian era contributed to the development of home economics as well.

The primary focus of research on human family life is home economics, which seeks to advance humankind as a whole by enhancing family life and improving the refinement of family members.It is a thoroughly applied discipline designed to guide people's social and familial lives.

It was initially established in Europe and is primarily concerned with family life skills development and family management.

The stability and advancement of society are closely linked to the quality of family life, which is why home economics education has been promoted in the hopes of enhancing family life.

As a result, a set of people who are more attentive to the upper class and excellent at housekeeping skills appeared, which is also one of the externalized manifestations of the upper class's refinement.

That's the cultural significance of Victoria Housekeeping!

Ellen Joe

Ellen works as a maid in the camp owned by Victoria Household.

She must use all of her strength as an ice attack character to carry out her master's instructions in the hollow.

On the battlefield, we can see Ellen with her long tail like a true shark swimming, bringing off a chilly, stifling atmosphere that is both fascinating and oppressive. She attacks her opponents with her razor-sharp scissors, swinging them like a massive wave on the sea when she finds an opportunity.

Members of the Victoria Housekeeping appears to be based on western horror tropes in addition to housekeeping elements:Ellen is a representation of the most famous catastrophe horror movie image, Jaws.

Maybe the biggest success of director Steven Spielberg is Jaws. It delivers a singular sense of mystery and terror as it tells the story of a fisherman and a sheriff battling a terrible great white shark that eats men in an isolated beach hamlet. With 67 million screenings over the course of its release, it was the first film to generate over $100 million at the North American box office, starting a trend of Hollywood summer blockbusters.

The name of Ellen's EX Special Attack, Sharknami, is derived from the science fiction film series Sharknado, which parodies a catastrophe film featuring sharks.

Every film tells the story of a shark that gets carried away by an oceanic tornado and turns into a terrifying monster that devours individuals in the city in an incredible way.

Ellen's skill design incorporates numerous ocean-related terms and phrases in addition to the shark itself.

For instance, Ellen will almost fully recover the shark's best sprint state hunting cruise through Dash Attack - Arctic Ambush without lacking any of her power.

The term "Reef Rock" refers to the dodge counter. In maritime navigation, a reef is a dangerous location beneath the sea's surface, inflicting damage and loss to maritime commerce frequently. Therefore, to guarantee shipping safety, people will frequently point to its precise location on maps, requiring ships passing through the reef to slow down or avoid it.

Ellen's additional ability, Rising Storm is storm tsunamis, which are natural disasters. This phenomenon occurs when extreme meteorological disturbances, such as high winds and abrupt changes in air pressure, cause the tide level in a sea area to substantially exceed the normal, causing the seawater to rise and fall abnormally. Its influence often lasts for hundreds to hundreds of hours and occurs in the range of tens to thousands of meters.

Let's take another look at Ellen's conspicuous weapon.

Due to the maid's function, gardening plays a significant role in the affluent family's housekeeping. For this reason, Ellen's weapon of choice is like an oversized pair of gardening scissors rather than an axe or large knife. Most gardening scissors are made in the shapes of a semi-ellipse and a circular arc to reduce friction between the scissors and trees, flowers, and shrubs and to allow for more accurate and better branch trimming. In many ways, the semi-circular design matches the elements that Ellen carries covertly since it resembles the huge head of a fish from the side. What's more, the weapons are also painted with a shark pattern.

Let's take our time enjoying every feature of her body, from top to bottom:

Beneath the maid's well-known hood lies a layer of angular jewelry, a layer of steel teeth that match the neck area's connecting segments to make an entire set of teeth. Behind the seemingly ordinary black hair, there's a hint of crimson color that represents blood, like a great white shark opening its jaws to rip apart its prey.

In fact, the line of sight goes on forever, and finding the Victorian housekeeping faction of a lineage of design aspects that are in the elaborate flare within the set of limits is not difficult at all. The spray seems to bind the line tightly, yet it opens up an unlimited door known as imagination.

Zenless Zone Zero Ellen Joe decorated her upper body with five black belts, and the hooped cuffs provided an ideal boundary between her white arms and the black outfit. As Ellen walked about, two flowing linking accessories in the back helped highlight her flexibility even more.

Unlike traditional maid's skirts, Ellen's skirt's lower half is composed of leather, which closely resembles shark skin in appearance. The side of the skirt is much more stunning; the leather is not flexible or breathable enough, so choose the hem opening on both sides and lock it with an X-shaped drawstring to allow for movement of the skirt.

The character's general aggressive and sharky nature is further reinforced by the black silk on the legs, which still has the spiky pattern added to it.

The characteristic marks left by the shark are even visible on the bottom of Ellen's sneakers.

The white graffiti of the famous shark's tail is the last but certainly not the least. It adds even more emphasis to the shark's features and is adorned with fish bones, stickers, and band-aids to prevent the tail from becoming boring.

And what makes Ellen so appealing is her personality in addition to her wonderful design.Her portrayal is three-dimensional due to the difference between combat and daily life; she frequently acts as a kind of contrarian moe and is kind of a silent girl. The vivid and varied small emotions of this little girl reveal her adolescent stirrings. She will share our desire to play easily with her spouse, think like us when it comes to balancing work and pleasure, keep things simple, and worry less about work; she will also share our dissatisfaction at how working overtime has slowed down her life.

Von Lycaon

Lycaon, the substantive leader and representative of Victoria Housekeeping Co., is responsible for managing all members of the company. He is an Ice Stun character who can strike an enemy a hundred times in a split second with his strong and muscular mechanical legs, giving people comfort. We occasionally even fail to notice that his archetype is a werewolf, which is frightening to others.

Lycaon's name is a reference to the Greek myth of King Lycaon, who cooked his son and served him to Zeus in order to trick him into eating human meat: he was thus punished by the god and transformed into a wolf. The name Lycaon derives from Ancient Greek λῠ́κος (lúkos, “wolf”), which is also the origin of the word "lycanthropy".

The werewolf did not fully emerge as a cultural phenomenon until the Middle Ages were over. During the course of several decades, the werewolf appeared in numerous literary works as well as in the reality of heresy. The first werewolf film, Werewolf of London, was released in 1935, and ever since then, werewolves have appeared on screen, becoming a staple of popular culture and a staple of thriller horror films.

In Icelandic, the word "von" means "hope," while in German, it has a deeper connotation. The von was added to the first name and the name of the place of birth in order to distinguish between people with the same name because there were many people in the ancient German-speaking region who only had first names and no last names.

Von, however, gradually evolved into a nobleman's name after the 17th century, signifying his ancestors' kingly title and serving as a unique emblem of their noble beginnings.

Starting with the standup, let's enjoy it slowly from top to bottom.

Lycaon Zenless Zone Zero is dressed in an archetypal finely marked suit with additional pieces added. Still, the snow-white wolf's head is forced to obstruct the majority of its face, leaving only one captivating eye visible. Dogs kept as household pets frequently have these muzzles on to keep their mouths restrained and avoid biting. Here, it is not pulled tight enough that Lycaon can still speak.

To ensure that the master's duty is completed on time, it is important for deacons to always pay attention to the time and keep a pocket watch in their breast pocket. Then, with three layers of restraining straps cross-locking his arms, he has a large gray and white tail behind his back. The focal point of the adorableness of the dog family is their fluffy tail, which is secured and not tightly restrained.

The focal point of Lycaon's fighting ability is its two formidable mechanical legs. We can find out that Lycaon actually wears a high heel behind the legs. Because it has longer, thinner limbs and a medium-sized body, the wolf's ability to run quickly and efficiently is enhanced by reduced ground friction. Its front legs are longer than its rear, which helps it run fast and far. This also helps it steer quickly. So wearing heels makes sense.

Although Lycaon maintains his elegance and composure, his canine instincts occasionally shine through. When he is particularly happy, his tail and ears unconsciously wag. He seems to be aware of this habit and somewhat bothered by it.

Additionally, like most furry Thiren, Lycaon takes great care of his fur.

Rational and reliable, Lycaon is an elegant gentleman and a versatile attendant who can solve any problem. He is the cornerstone of his team and a reassuring presence. What's more,Wolves are highly intelligent and sociable animals who work well in teams. They don't fight among themselves, support one another, and have a clear internal division of labor that allows them to handle a lot of tasks.

Alexandrina

Alexandrina Sebastiane, also known as Rina, is a playable Electric Support character in Zenless Zone Zero (ZZZ).

Alexandrina ought to be the entire name of Queen Victoria of the British Empire. Victoria's reign occurred during Britain's most powerful Sunset Empire, known as the Victorian era. Britain expanded its colonial reach in this period, founding and occupying numerous colonies within a certain area. The decades of her rule also corresponded with the height of liberal capitalism in Britain before it gradually gave way to monopoly capitalism.

Queen Victoria became a symbol of peace and prosperity in Britain because of the country's strong might, advanced scientific and technological capabilities, and dominant industrial and commercial sectors.

Sebastiane, on the other hand, comes from the Latin word "Sebastianus," which means solemn, respectable, honorable, etc. Sebastian became the butler's name, more due to the influence of Japanese culture. In the two Japanese animations, Perrin's Tale and Alpine Maiden, from 1974 and 1978, Sebastian is shown as a very understanding young man who is gentle and considerate to his master, this image left a lasting impression on the audience. The name was also frequently used in other film and anime productions.

Additionally, Sebastian reflects the qualities of classical music that not only represents Rina but also the entire Victorian house style.

Johann Sebastian Bach, regarded as the founder of Western music, is among the most well-known figures in music history.

Rina's character card has four distinct musical selections that represent the various stages of Rina's appearance. One of them is the masterpiece that Mendelssohn wrote for Shakespeare's play A Midsummer Night's Dream. His works are renowned for their exquisite beauty and brilliance. He is considered an outstanding Romantic master of lyrical landscape painting and one of the most representative personalities of the German Romantic School.

The well-known Beethoven's Symphony of Fate and Concerto of Pathos are corresponding to the Twisted Fate Concerto and the Silent Sonata Pathetique. Beethoven's profound contributions to classical music, as well as his invention and refinement of the sonata form and the symphonic suite's structure, earned him the title of musical genius.

On the other side, Dvořák, a prominent exponent of the Czech National School and one of the world's greatest 19th-century composers, wrote the New World Symphony.

Rina's skills also include a lot of music-related features. Quick Assist: Duple Meter Allemande， a form of Slow Mandar Clave dance known for its two-beat Allemande that developed in Germany, has a quiet, slightly stagnant style that fits Rina's movement traits as well as being straightforward, basic, and soft in its motions.

Evasive Assist: Triple Meter Courante, which comes from popular French dance music of the 17th century. Courante is the French word. It has a quicker tempo and has been performed solo as an instrumental work since 1725.

Assist Follow-Up: Quadruple Meter Gavotte， sometimes called the Harvest Dance, is an old French traditional dance tune. This is a slow-paced, 4/4 dance that originated as a folk dance and developed into a baroque court dance in the sixteenth century.

Let's return to the root of Rina's dark, terrifying image—the ghost, of course. The souls of the dead that return to the living world in a form similar to their lifetime—typically without a set form—are known as ghosts. Usually invisible to human sight, they are only visible to a select few, such as foes, yin-yang-eyed individuals, or relatives of the deceased. The idea of the soul in connection to life and death may conjure up a terrifying image without even beginning with a piece of art. It is already a widely recognized cultural icon that may be found in many places throughout the globe.

As the head maid of Victoria Housekeeping Co., her clothing selection focuses on temperament and stability, therefore her maid's uniform is a more traditional long-skirted system. The original single-color maid's outfit has a vivid red stripe on the breast that follows the line of sight downward.

The layout is shrewdly separated. However, it gets a little scary when you combine it with the motor, the Victorian scene, and other bits. The mentally sick were routinely subjected to cruel treatments such as electroshock, bondage, and restraints during a period when mental disorders were not yet acknowledged by science.

The same steel component structure can also be seen on Rina's arm, extending from top to bottom, and the puppeteer's design aspects are visible through her jewelry.

Via invisible threads, Rina can command Bangboos to carry out a variety of strikes.

Rina is always accompanied by two Bangboo named Anastella (brown hair) and Drusilla (blonde hair), both of whom have distinct personalities.

Drusilla has been with Rina for a significant period of time and displays high intelligence, capable of discerning Rina's true emotions and thoughts.

Anastella, a recent addition, usually responds rather than initiates conversation and is frequently teased by Drusilla.

Moving on, we can see that Rina is wearing a headpiece and several long spikes hanging from her waist. Upon closer examination, we can figure out the famed Windsor family of English history. in my opinion, might be related to the horrifying frontal lobe psychosurgical brain treatments that have previously been used: Ice pick treatment was created by Walter J. Freeman.

Compared to frontal lobotomies, the ice pick procedure is incredibly straightforward: the patient is made unconscious using a variety of methods, and the ice pick is then inserted straight into the eye sockets and into the prefrontal lobe of the brain. The patient is then shaken as hard as possible until all of the gray and white matter in the brain is destroyed, at which point the procedure is considered successful.

Corin Wickes

Zenless Zone Zero Corin is one of the maids working for Victoria Housekeeping Co.

She is a highly obedient maid but lacks confidence and often fears being disliked by others. When in a rush, she becomes flustered and stutters.

Corin is always apologizing no matter what happens.

"I... I... I'm so sorry! I'm so incompetent... I'll never get things right..."

The key words that belong to Corin's horror elements, I think, would be Frankenstein and mechanically powered saw.

Mary Shelley, an English novelist, originally created the iconic image of Frankenstein in horror culture in 1818. Frankenstein, the main character, is a biologist who is fascinated with the start of life. He has a criminal mind and frequently visits the tomb where he attempts to piece together a massive human body from the fragments of several corpses. After the monster eventually comes to life and opens his eyes, Frankenstein abandons him because he is so terrified of his repulsive appearance. However, the monster is back on the trail and seeks Frankenstein for feminine warmth, company, and companionship. This leads to a peculiar sequence of mysteries and murders.

It is considered to be the world's first true science fiction novel and an example of Gothic fiction.

In Corin's Mindscape Image Full, there is what appears to be a large scar surrounding her right arm, which might be related to the "major surgery" mentioned in her Agent Intel.

In Fox's 2015 Victor Frankenstein film, Frankenstein has two hearts, and the bear on Corin's back has a heart in her breast; could this be where her true nature lies?

The most apparent prototype, of course, is the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Corin's chainsaw, which relentlessly slices through her rivals. Furthermore, Edward was the model for the real-life murderous maniac. Gaines, Theodore. In contrast to his deadly actions, Theodore Gaines was an introverted, reclusive, and even shy person at the time of his heinous acts. Corin's art for the game now reflects this difference.

The chainsaw, which is a fundamental instrument for processing wood and has great efficiency and practical simplicity, is extended in Corin's weapon.

Easy moving, low upkeep, and other qualities. All wood production machinery has a 30% to 40% ratio, and because large circular saws perform so well, they are naturally used extensively in steel cutting.

Overall, Corin's costume is more in keeping with what we would consider a traditional maid's attire, with a color scheme that is dominated by white and accented by dark green—the color that symbolizes the Frankenstein monster. The sense of dread is further enhanced by the costume's grid of dotted lines, which is reminiscent of the cut or suture lines used to perform body surgeries.

Four enormous screws are affixed to the front and rear of the brain in addition to the customary maid's hair. These screws correspond to the six screws on the sides and down the neck and are counterbalanced by the enormous skirt support on the lower body.

The dress's sleeves feature the same dashed pattern as the bodice, and a large chain that doubles as a corset is worn around the waist instead of the belt. If you follow the chain backward, you will discover a somewhat worn-out bear fastened to the back of Corin's rucksack. A pulsating heart, not just any old object, was found within the bear. I wonder how this design will connect to Corin's tale, as it's undoubtedly the most fascinating feature on his entire body.

Approaching the arms, we find three tiny handcuffs that slide over the arms stacked above an enormous metal cuff. This, together with the medieval asylum practices that Rina's koan earlier discussed, further suggests that one of the techniques used was to restrict a patient's range of motion.

A diligent and serious young maid, Corin always puts her heart and soul into everything she does.Of course, that includes taking out enemies in combat.

Corin knows that she isn't the most powerful of maids, nor the smartest. But she hopes to become the hardest working. Corin never, however, fails to fulfill her tasks with excellence and is one of the most reliable members of Victoria Housekeeping Co.

She puts to good use everything she's ever learned.

Here is my analysis of the Victoria Housekeeping faction and its members. The above opinions are purely personal, and I hope they help you better understand the characters.
