Genshin Impact has always had a strong and enthusiastic player base. From a community that can at times be toxic to one that can agree on quite a lot of things, the range that comes with it is rather exquisite. When it comes to such a dedicated fanbase, it not only begins with the heavy lore but also with some beautiful character designs.
With such striking enthusiasm, it is only natural for gamers, much like any fan, to want to add references about their beloved topic. One such individual just so happened to be a professor in a college. Someone who really enjoyed Genshin Impact, especially the Adeptus Ganyu. So much so that they even added some references here and there as sneakily as possible in a paper.

Genshin Impact Finds itself on an Exam Paper
A user on Reddit recently posted about how there were subtle hints of their obsession over a certain Genshin Impact character. As a college professor, they managed to add references with regard to Ganyu in an exam paper made by them. Although it was important not to get called out for it, there seemed to be no harm in adding some rarely noticeable details about Ganyu in the paper.

The terms ‘Coco’ and ‘Goat’ can be seen in the paper. Hints are so small that they could very easily be missed by even the most dedicated players. The term ‘Cocogoat’ is often used to describe Ganyu. Qiqi happens to be very fond of Coconut milk, one that Ganyu brings for her, so the little zombie happens to give her the nickname of a Cocogoat. That wasn’t all though, there was also a name, ‘Ms. Gwen Yu’ included. It was very clearly wordplay around the Adeptus’ name.
What Makes Ganyu the Cocogoat?
Ganyu is a blue-haired Cryo DPS who has features that very delicately resemble a goat. Qiqi, the zombie child notices it too, and gives her the name of the Cocogoat because she cannot remember Ganyu’s name. As part of the Adepti, Ganyu serves a purpose to protect the land of Liyue and stand by the side of Rex Lapis. Not only did she fight against some of the biggest enemies via lore, but even her stats allowed her to solo the Spiral Abyss with ease.
She has been beneficial not just to the lore of the game but also to the gameplay in general, making her fit to be a multipurpose unit. Although one might want a shielder to support her, perhaps her Archon.
