Sanji - All Fight Scenes | One Piece (Netflix) If you wonder why Sanji announces his attacks in French, the fighting style he’s based on is classical Savate.

Grantaire was also a dancer and boxer in canon no?

Quite true.

He dances well and he practices "savate" and "chausson". I tried looking up their differences but I keep finding the same results for both words. It's not boxing, it's also called French boxing but it's much more similar to kick-boxing. It originated in Parisian and Marseillais slums but it later got popular among aristocracy as well. You use kicks and slaps, punches were introduced around 1830.

According to the brick, Grantaire is very good in stick fighting too. I always found interesting he is the only one among Les Amis (as far as we know) who is actually trained to fight and he is the one who doesn't lift a finger. It's emblematic of how he has the potential to serve the revolution, he doesn't apply it deliberately.

It's said he also sings constantly, even if I don't think it's very good since it's drunk singing.

He's very knowledgeable in history, he reads english mortality statistics, he has a classical education from what we know but he randomly talks about acids in a drunken rant and once I read (I don't remember where so it may not be reliable info) that what he said was correct and academic knowledge in 1832.

Indeed a super varied range of interests.

Might be going under the knife tomorrow (finally gonna have a functional nose). Nevertheless got a great episode lined up for you guys. Usual release tomorrow at 12pm but we're going over one of the most versatile aspects of Savate, one I pretty passionately feel can be applied to MMA and martial arts as a whole. That being a versatile and offensive front leg skillset. Check it out!

Maddox - Savate

Fun fact: Maddox knows savate, a French martial art. They were taught by their stepmother, Delphine. Even though they're pretty calm and laid back, they'll gladly defend themselves from any creeps and assholes. Patreon reward from @sammishspook-blog-deactivated20

Ok hear me out, parkour and savate, a kick based martial art, was invented in france.

Miruko should be a frankophile

One thing that baffles me about the more martial arts-minded Miraculous Ladybug fanfic writers is how they utterly fail to take advantage of the location being Paris. Paris is where Savate went from a sailor’s martial art to a full street fighting system, that included multiple weapons, throws, and even Le Parkour, and then to a sport, and they still have gyms that teach the full thing, plus Parkous gyms and ones that teach La Canne (the French way to murder someone with a walking stick). It’s the martial art one would expect there... But no Savate. It doesn’t matter it was actually in the original PV (Ladybug herself uses La Savate against the Mime, and both her and Chat Noir use Parkour skills), in fanfiction no Savate. It doesn’t matter there’s a scene where it may actually have been used in the show (season 3, episode 1 “Chameleon”: the titular Akuma uses a kick that is present in both Savate, Karate, and Taekwondo), in fanction no Savate. You get Muay Thai (though this one gets a pass, given it’s already in the show thanks to Nora), you get Karate, you get Penkak Silat, but no Savate. Why?
