Another [Gerund Tact] in the JP original (Mountain-Secluding Tact), 'though not sure how to adapt it into English. Guess we can call this Commando Tact but now it's not longer an -ing word.

(Hermitizing Tact? Mountaineering Tact?)

    Sure is awkward running into germanic mercenaries while in Paris of all places :BlobWheeze:

    I mean, they're Mercenaries, so traveling to work is kind of their things. Also some German love tourism.
    On a side note Overhype tend to happen to most very famous tourist spots (heck, nowadays you're more likely to see the reverse Paris Syndrome, where weebs are shocked to find Tokyo completely different from their expectations), The Paris Syndrome phenomenon initially appeared because Japan a few decades ago in particular used to have a very pictural view of France. It wasn't even all the issues that you mentioned (tourist tend to notoriously visit the parts of cities that don't smells like piss), just Paris being a big city when they expected "Rose of Versailles, but it's not the middle of the Revolution so everything is much calmer). Many modern Japanese tourist have more realistic expectations when they go to Europe.

    On a slightly more serious note, my sincerest apologies to all victims of the supermassively undeserved hype around Paris, the capital that's less dense than Tokyo, yet more overwhelming, has the frenchest people of France (in the bad way), issues with trash and streets that smell like piss, and much more.
    The fact that there is so much as a condition from the contrast between the international idea of Paris and it's reality is both hilarous and terrifying

    Don't go out at night.

    Sadly, the problem is that Paris is not exactly populated by "the frenchest people of France" anymore.
    Bottom line : when you keep importing the Third World, you become the Third World.

    French is just a language and a funny accent. It means absolutely nothing else.

    Yeah but if you're someone coming from the other side of the world, running into mercenaries from the neighboring country isn't really on the list of things you'd expect or feel comfortable with, i assume :DogeKek:

    Now that you mention it, weebs experiencing reverse Paris syndrome is quite hilarous and so predictable it sounds like a joke; No need for unrealistic expectations when one can simply enjoy Tokyo's urbanism, food and transportation as they are, of course picturesque landscapes aren't gonna be the thing to look for in the biggest metropolis of the world

    Bayrou/Zemmour/Le Pen brainrot being parroted here wasn't something i'd have expected to see but i guess it's one of the many unhinged and reality-disconnected things that can manifest in the comment section.
    Even if the numbers confirmed your point (they don't and they won't ever), it still would be the last of France's problems right now, an ethnostate isn't the solution to your problems

    Cyndaquil is paying for his dad's crimes

    A child shouldn't be punished for the crimes of their parents.
    Specially if said crime comes from a glorified fanfic.

    Yeah, no, I got the joke. I just felt like stating the obvious.

    Historically Almond Eye's have 3 big loses. 2 in Yasuda Kinen (mile) which one involves Gran Algeria and the other is Arima Kinen (long) which she lost to another frilly named Lys Gracieux (Ai is in 9th place too kek)

    Wonder if Lys Gracieux will be added later.

    Since Lys is owned by the same club as Cesario I wouldn't put it past them to add her later on... Complete with all the references of her and Loves being from the same stable.

    Her jockey that time:

    Gran IRL was usually jockeyed by Lemaire but since he was riding Almond Eye that race her reins were passed to Ikze. Who then got hit by a clod of earth sent flying towards his eye by the horse in front, giving him a nasty concussion. Still managed to win though.

    This is a recreation of the scene in a forthcoming chapter of the Yotsubato! manga, in which Ena introduces her friends to her PE teacher, who is revealed to be an aged-up Osaka from Azumanga Daioh, confirming that Azumanga Daioh and Yotsubato! are set in the same universe.
