Seeing Babel ''Are you accepting applications for a chair'' killed me 💀

The reason ayaka got the Fontaine outfit is because she always wished to be able to travel outside of inazuma and experience their culture Also I believe it's based on the era of Japan when it recently got unlocked to the rest of the world people started wearing more western clothes (sorry if my explanation sucked)

Papa is back let’s go

as a japanese person I can say that people here have been obsessed with french stuff since forever

I miss hearing the "I hope you enjoyed watching this video as much as I enjoyed making it for your ass" in the outro... can we get it back lol?

2:25 im crying the way kage imitated ayaka is so cute PLEASEEE

im so happy that there are people who like this skin. Ive only seen hate towards it and it made me kind of sad. im an ayaka main so i fell in love with this skin. ITS SO CUTE AAAA

Who would pay for a Diluc skin and not play him? Ah yes, I wonder who?

Actually , in Inazuma there are many NPCs that are from Fontaine. From what I remember around 3 or 4 quests were revolved around them . Quest where we made a movie , and with Tataratsuna are the ones that I remember on the top of my head . So yeah , it makes sense that Ayaka got Fontanie outfit since Sakoku degree got lifted and they can trade with other nations

Ayaka. Fitting for one of Mihoyo favorite child to be the first non Standard Character to have a Skin.

During the Bakumatsu period of japan (1850's) was when Japan started to become more open to western influences mainly because they realized they were really behind in technology. However there was plenty of backlash against the west so they had a civil war about it which led to the Shogun (The Military leader) losing power and being dethroned by the Emperor (Wealthy Ruling class) which was pro west at the time while the shogun was traditional and wanted to retain a samurai police class called the Shinsengumi. The Shogunate was seen as popular with the people mainly because the Tokugawa Shogunate brought peace and prosperity after a century prior of war called the Sengoku Jidai. However the shogunate was starting to hold progress back due to how traditional they were so they eventually fizzled out. This was around the 1850's and it involved many western nations such as the French, Americans and British all vying for a foothold to trade with Asia and they saw Japan as the first step to entering Asia's theater which in the end America ended up controlling after the events of WW2. The fall of the Shogunate in my eyes was a sad but necessary step for Japan to modernize because if it was not for the Tokugawa Shogunate Japan would not have been united as a single country at the time and that would have lead to worse results for Japan in the long term but if the Shogunate was allowed to stay in power Japan would not advance technologically speaking either. This is why there is still a strong xenophobic culture in japan to this day that is only now fizzling out as the new generations have only experienced a modernized world. The Bakumatsu period was a very interesting period to experience because you would see lines of people with swords charging towards lines of people with guns. It was basically one of the last old ways humans fought wars, now clashing with a modern way humans now fought wars. In the present day, The French's main influence for Asia is mainly cuisine and fashion. Particularly in japan they focus on a lot of french baked goods such as strawberry shortcakes, macarons, and various breadmaking. Specifically Japan is obsessed with re-interpretting french baking by making their recipes smaller and cuter on the presentation side of things and the bread way more soft and fluffier. Also lolita was a pretty big fashion style in the early to late 2000's that was heavily inspired by french dresses. My personal opinion on ayaka's new skin is I don't like it. I rolled on Ayaka to play as a OnnaBushi (Samurai girl) so spending 15 bucks to remove the original reason why I wanted her would be a loss for me. It's funny because even to this day just me liking Ayaka's original outfit would be seen as me liking the traditional Japan and me rejecting the new skin is me rejecting the modern Japan. So in a way I am presently expressing exactly what has happened in the history of Japan, however I am glad to not have lived in such a violent past. So that shows the progress of how humans in general grow less violent as we progress in the never ending tapestry of human history. However there is always progress to be done, even today.

I never thought the words chocolate and thunder would sound good together, especially when describing the NPC 😂

Shogun may be popular but you forgot Ayaka is Hoyo's favorite character.

Ayaka killed me right there in 2:27 after her elemental burst LOL

I love this skin- its kinda giving cottage core especially the hat and hair hehe

0:10 also by sales. She broke the china banner record like every time her banner came out lol

Thank you so much for this video !!! As a F2P I do suffer from not being able to buy my waifus skin and having a view of it definitely makes me feel better… Can’t wait for a kuki shinobu skin !

The skin looks so nice in game. I bought it straight away and it kinda give me an excuse to finally triple crown her

"it does look fontaine" Me: yeh "she got them OUI OUI DRESSES" Me: WHEEZING HARD JAEKAGEEW🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭

You are forgetting that ayaka is hoyo's favourite genshin character, makes sense 😭

am I the only BR here that understood 11:15? Kage playing with ninjas of the hidden rainforest...

Hey Kage I just want to say that when ever you upload it brings me genuine joy and puts a smile on my face. Love ya man

Who would spend crystals on a skin for a character they don't even own? certainly not me nope. not me... diluc when

You are now my Father, don't you ever go and buy milk like my last parents

Ayaka’s skin is actually based off the Japanese mejin era when they were stuck during lockdown some Japanese people started taking inspiration from western clothing and put it in their own clothes which explains the yee-haw boots

we got a new hairstyle and its not even a five star, ayaka main W edit: and it somewhat matches mistsplitter too

Well Ayaka just catching up to her bro's fashion taste.

this dress also looks like part of gyaru culture or lolita dresses from japan.. i think its a mix between them all XD

more kage content 🤝🏻 today is a good day yet again

"300 pounds of Chocolate Thunder" had me wheezing (R.I.P Darryl Dawkins)

Yes! I was looking forward to his reaction to Ring Dancer! 😂

THE BRAZILIANS LMAOOOOOO im brazilian too so i thought it was really funny seeing kage unable to understand them lol

Honestly I’m torn to get this or not. Or rather I’m deciding to either get it now or later. Only reason is because the outfit is beautiful and cute, but on Ayaka it’s like idk. I think it would have made more sense to have someone from Mondstadt to wear it.

Aligators are smaller and have Spade-like heads and generally live in Freshwater. While Crocodiles are larger and have V-like or New York Pizza Slice heads and generally live in Saltwater.

You still a good day seeing jei

I'm glad to know I'm not the only person who cannot remember which patch we're on

Yooo Brazilians in coop, my people my pals 😭💜

10:24 YOOOO that's how I play Yae when people refuse to bring a healer

missed you kage!!

"Who would pay 20 dollar's for a skin of a character they don't even play as" I feel called out and attacked 😅

crocs have over bites while alligators have more of a circular snout i believe.

hey, glad u're bacc kage

Papa Kage blesses us once again. Ty

I snorted at "chocolate thunder" 😂😂😂

Thank you again for showcasing something I could never have (unless I win five more Welkin giveaways 😅)

The protag in the last samurai was based off a French guy (Jules Brunet)

1:26 my buddy and i exclusively refer to this character as “a wall of man”

Kage the goat is back

Raiden is a feast for the eyes, Ayaka is a feast for the soul. I love Ayaka for her personality.

1:38 japan do have many dealings with the germens though

I'mma just have some quick nerd appreciation that he's using Ocarina of Time music in the background sometimes

the enemy lying on the ground i can't 😭

"Ayaka got one of them wee-wee drips" 🤣 yes I agree fit is mucho oui-oui

If I'm not mistaken ayaka's skin feels like an allusion to the adaptation of the west after the Meiji Restoration

"am I high?" *gets stuck outside the domain.* LOL

We want 2 hrs gameplay pf Kage!

so we don't have to lmao... im definitely gonna buy it xD actually i think ayaka was one of the most popular but least profitable because all the people saved since launch

Wow. I just finished a video of yours and there's already a new one. Dang.

Wow finally after a hundred years pass,Jeikage uploads again

You have to be the first person to be locked outside the domain arena ,I didn't think it was possible either!🤣🤣🤣

3:54 yes, she'll "leave" as a character (quest "Apocalypse Lost") BUT her bottle will remain. So technically she stays as a"pet "

AYAKAS OUTFIT LOOKS LIKE ITS BASED OFF STUDIO GHIBLI OR I WOULD LOVE HER NEW SKIN DRAWN IN ITS STYLE

1:05 alligators are usually in america (the continent) and crocodiles are mostly in africa and ES asia they also have different snouts and different water preferences

As soon as I saw how it said jeikage I clicked soo fast!

I bought it day one no hesitation, the splash art of it isn't that good but looks great in game, absolutely no regrets..... yet

I remember when I first watched kage Back when he crowned keqing

FINALLY early for once!! BTW love your vids and you make me laugh everyday!!

The French had lots of connections to Japan. The first military advisors for the Imperial Army were French. They were among the first known weaboos. For example French artists like Gauguin and Degas were fans of Japanese woodcut art. Even today "prefecture" is based on a French word. And French cuisine is still a big thing in Japan.

I hope he found the lux chest under the triangle that he lifted

2:27 Kamisato Art: Sume- *AUGHHH*

he found brazilians in the wild speaking in code

0:29 me. I did pay 100€ into the game and also bought his skin and also use him occasionally (I love Diluc). Thats the the day I lost my welkin only status

I see Jei finally got his hands on a Ps5

Man I already bought the skin I should’ve waited for Kage 😭

there's a mod that replaces Bennett with Babel, Xingqiu with Mirror Maiden and Xiangling with Floral Dancer

OHHH IVE LEARNED DURING THIS QUEST THAT WE CAN USE FREEZE TO MAKE THOSE DORITO MOBS COME OUT OF THEIR INVISIBILITY xd we no longer have to make the whole dendro electro reaction

Honestly. I bought the diluc skin even though I don't use him just because I wanted to encourage more skins.

1:35 *cough* *cough* Dottore doing a little trolling *cough* *cough*

i mean i think the reason they haven't made a raiden skin is because they'd have to 1. do all the archons 2. go in archon order 3. people would want their cutscene outfits 4. i will riot until we get maid venti 5. maid venti pls

ayakas hoyoverses favourite after all

They need to make the enemy to be playable because like they be making them to fine then the actual playable characters 🤨

"so you don't have to" i did it anyways

Bable was a momma. She had a daughter. But apparently lost her to the sands? Or something.

Thankyou youtube has been very dry recently :)

Pls do an Alhaitham video💕

the funny thing is that the hat & boots make her look so much like anne from green gables XDDD just color her hair ginger and she will be copy her

Kamisato art sume-AAH

ayaka did have longer banner ..remember the true eternal banner ..last year

But I bought the Ayaka skin because I wanted to...

The two people talking there at the end of the video where you didn't understand anything were Brazilian lol. I know because I am too

Lord, kage I been slacking on my dailys and domains i deserve jail time of genshin impact for 3 weeks

I just knew kage would like matriarch Babel. Cus I simped too

Thank you for helping me. I ain't buying that dress

"And not cheese the game" dude I literally c6 ayato and tap everything and it dies

Yeah I've been blocked behind the wall of domain areas a number of times myself. It's a little embarrassing but also, it's like fuck you host, you coulda just made sure everyone was in. Then there's the ones that are nice enough to keep the fighting close to me so I can be of some use. Which is what we witnessed now. Those are the real homies.

The emarite look look so fine If only they were playble

I got the skin and I don’t even have Ayaka yet

Thanks

2:26 Yup, that some new kamisato art ayaka Shit be new

i would buy the skin, but i just dont have ayaka
