In case anyone hasn't realized, the Tokyo Daishoten is a race that's held just after the Arima Kinen, a race that effectively closes off the JRA racing season in late December. Clearly not in cherry blossom season like the referenced video implied.

And no, I can assure you, you can't see Mt. Fuji from Oi

Heard there was news that Forever Young might me retiring next year but also that they might try running him on turf before retirement

Yahagi's been saying they're going to retire him at the end of this year for a while now. The only real debate (aside from Fujita humoring the idea of a Saudi threepeat) is whether they're going to run him in the Arima (turf) or the Tokyo Daishoten or Champions' Cup (dirt) (EDIT: forgot that defending the Breeders' Cup title was in the cards, although this year it'd be held in the East Coast which makes the prospect more iffy) before the end of the year.

If they're retiring him then I hope it ends in a high note like Oguri or Opera O and then get to live a long life

He's gonna get the Kitasan Treatment first.

...so, not as relaxing as Oguri and Opera.

Dunno if you could say Ope's racing career ended on a high note (he finished 5th behind Cafe in the 2001 Arima), but I'm positive the JRA will host a retirement ceremony like those two plus Doto.

The LEGENDARY sire line has to continue somehow...

Doctor's close to administering a spanking to this naughty child.

Doctor gonna hit Mon3tr with that Furioso....

Bratty Tiberium Lifeform.

She should have worn Shiroko's swimsuit instead.

Would this count as gender swap?

No because ritsuka fujimaru isn't Rin or shirou both ritsukas may look like them but there's no concrete evidence to suggest their the same person or related

Because holding a sword by the blade works out SO well for people.

Wait say that again but an unlimited amount of times

Can anyone else imagine Archer acting like one of those gay boyfriends that girls would have in sitcoms?
"Shirou can be such a handful to deal with."
"I know Sweetie that boy is lucky you put up with him."

Funnily enough, that's really close to what Rin thinks of Shirou. Though, typically, she thinks that Shirou is a handful because of his messed up mentality.

Awkward~!

It's because I can see Archer doing this with Rin nonchalantly, that it always highlights their compatibility to me.

"You're late, Shirou. Sit down, Archer will do you next."

I can see it and archer being disappointed in himself for not seeing that tohsaka liked him

Because archer is older than her and rins still a minor also it's redundant because archer is an alternate version of shirou and Rin is one of the heroines shirou can fall in love with in the 3 routes of fate stay night it's redundant to ship her with archer because archers isn't alive and who's only gonna be in the physical world for like a week or 2 and because shirou emiya is still there

Because it's redundant archer is the future version of shirou who is the only person Rin has feeling for and because of the fact that archer is an alternate future shirou that would make him a ped o phile if he got with Rin during the holy grail war because she is 17 during the series and because servants don't stick around after the holy grail war and because servants are already dead so it would be ped o philia and necrophilia

Just for this? 😂 What's the problem here? She's 17.

If this were Rin from the ubw route she wouldn't be cheating on shirou ya larp

If this were ubw Rin , shirou would be the one fucking her not some random self insert

Oh and both Fern and Suletta Mercury are voiced by Jill Harris. Making two characters share both their English and Japanese voice actors.

Very slick look!

Man, I can only hope we will get some kind of playable dragon thiren in the game

"I galloped here to laugh at you."

I respect the artist's honesty.

I've heard English is one of the hardest second languages to learn.
I do not envy anyone who's trying to be multilingual...

I think that Eroquis is excited that the FF7 Remake is happening.

HD + Jiggle physics soon :9

I wonder if they'll be kind enough to put in an Emofuri-esque slider so some of us can turn it down from waterballoons to realistic levels (and some others can pretend to be on the moon).

I somehow doubt it.

So glad that Tifa fanart explodes back to life.

Rejoice ye.

I figure most of the characters will be based on their Advent Children models, and Tifa was a bit more realistically endowed in that.
Still nice to see all this new 'classic Tifa' artwork, though.

Awesome 👍
