Apparently, Rappa's movement allegedly isn't the only unique detail about her.

In the comment section, many Honkai: Star Rail fans seemed skeptical about the possible quality of Rappa's rap, saying that it might not be good. They also brought up Hu Tao's rap song in Genshin Impact, which many fans felt was underwhelming and had a weird flow. Meanwhile, others seemed hopeful that HoYoverse would manage to come up with a good song for Rappa, especially after seeing the quality of Robin's songs during the Penacony arc.
Honkai: Star Rail's Rappa Could Be the Next Musical Act
HoYoverse is known for releasing catchy and memorable songs across all its games. Honkai: Star Rail is a great example because many fans have raved about the music in all the final boss battles, and the fact that a singer like Robin can perform during battle. If the rumors about Rappa are true, she could become the next performer to liven up the game, especially if she's given the ability to perform her song during battle. She could even have her own EP in the future, just like what Honkai: Star Rail did to promote Robin.
The story of Honkai: Star Rail Version 2.6 is still a mystery, but many think that the Trailblazer might return to Penacony to tie up some loose ends. There are already rumors that Sunday might become playable soon, so it's possible that he might appear in a future update. Meanwhile, Honkai: Star Rail fans will just have to wait until it releases a Version 2.6 Special Program stream to explain the ins and outs of the upcoming update.
