July 15th is Hu Tao's birthday in Genshin Impact, which has led some parts of the community to celebrate it.
For those that don't know, Hu Tao is the 77th director of the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor. Not only that, but she's also the icon of the popular Discord group of the same name. In Genshin Impact, she's a terrific DPS unit who can easily wipe the floor with most bosses in the game.
As it is with most popular Genshin Impact characters, some people love to celebrate these fictional characters' birthdays with amusing videos and fanart. Given that it is July 15th in some parts of the world, it is only suitable to discuss Hu Tao's birthday and how the Genshin Impact community is reacting on YouTube and Twitter.
Hu Tao's birthday: YouTube and Twitter reactions for the popular Genshin Impact character

Why is Hu Tao popular?
There is an interesting juxtaposition between a funeral director being a serious and solemn position and that funeral director being a cheerful girl. Hu Tao can switch between the two moods quite easily, which makes her character an amusing one that stands out even in Genshin Impact's colorful cast.
Of course, it's Hu Tao's insane DPS capabilities that endear herself to most Genshin Impact players. She's a mean CRIT machine with an interesting Elemental Skill that drains her HP, which makes her a high risk and high reward playable character.

There are a few Hu Tao videos already out on July 14th for United States players, such as the one above, where Hu Tao just utterly destroys Level 90 bosses in about a minute or so.
