HoYoverse has started sharing “Traveler’s Guide to the Planes,” giving us an early sneak peek into the worldbuilding of Honkai: Nexus Anima. The first entries highlight Lia, the town where your adventure begins, and a handful of key locations that mix everyday charm with the really cool Anima battles.
Welcome to Lia – Your First Stop in Lusciell

Every great journey starts small, and in Nexus Anima, that place is Lia! This is a cozy town that you can find on the continent of Lusciell within the Plane of Reality. It is a humble town, but Lia is home to important landmarks, institutions, and plenty of personality!
Key Locations in Lia and Beyond

- Nexus Hall – A nonprofit shelter for Anima, supported by the Nexus Association. More than just a rest stop, it is a symbol of the bond between humans and their companions.
- Aniwon Plaza – A sunken square right in front of Lia’s Arena, full of activity and duels.
- Montemar Academy – A local school where youth study by day, but townsfolk stroll the grounds by evening.
- Quick Bites – A fast-food chain spread across Lusciell. Even Animasters need snacks between battles!
- Kampete’s Gallery of Wandering – A wonderful shop dedicated to the Grand Championship, filled with relics of past champions and tournament legends.
- Romanesque Hall – Once a royal mansion in the Old World, now repurposed as a massive Competition Arena where Championship Qualifiers are held.
- Committee for a Joyful Lia – The town’s municipal authority, ensuring daily life stays bright and harmonious.
These locations show that Nexus Anima is not just about battles. It is about living in a world where myth and daily life collide. You will train in academies, snack at fast food restaurants, and shop in champion galleries, all while also fighting with Sovereigns and Novarchs.
As HoYoverse continues its “Traveler’s Guide to the Planes” series, players can expect even more information about Lusciell’s continents, Arenas, and the mythic Planes beyond!
