nonny for this thread!! who's everyone fav horse girl? mine's Narita Brian. I love her one sided rivalry with Mayano Top Gun, both are so cute. If Maya wasnt so fanservicy and clingy she would probably be my favourite.

Cinderella Gray IMO is the best and if it interests you, it can be watched standalone from the main anime as it's its own thing. Its second season will be dropping in October too, if you want to catch up and enjoy it as it comes out.

Thanks for the thread. I got into the series through the Cinderella Gray anime a few months ago and it successfully umapilled me and I went and watched all the uma anime that exist, just in time for the global game release.
It's kinda interesting how you can tell CinGray (manga started in 2020) influenced the later anime entries (namely Road to the top and the movie) where they become more like crazy sports shounen just with girls.

I know at the end of the day it's just gachaslop aimed mostly at men, but ngl I really appreciate that the game lets you be a female trainer and it actually has an impact on dialogue (rice shower saying onee-sama is so cute..), I think it stops it from having a fanbase like blue archive's too

>>517883Not really, but I can understand with someone like Oguri Cap, much like her irl counterpart, had issues growing up with their legs and she was able to over come it and starts out as a nobody only to become a threat as well as making friends and opening up to people.
However the game does make me want to improve/ inspire me to improve just because this may sound stupid and pathetic (it's a gacha game, it wants me to be a whale, I know) but the idea that someone is putting their trust in me to help them be better without asking much in return just strikes a cord with me, especially with characters like Silence Suzuka, Rice Shower and even King Halo.

I love Nice Nature. I relate to her self deprecrating nature a lot, i am also someone that tries their hardest and fails every time. Training her makes me so anxious because if i fail i genuinely get depressed, i just want to see her thrive. She's lovely and cute and hard working i can't wait to have better support cards so i can get her to A rank. I am also def going to go after all her skins, she looks lovely on the cheerleader and new year's outfit.
>>517619>How do I get more outfits thoughFor their racing outfit you need to raise the < 3 star cards to 3 stars, to get their casual outfits you need to raise bond to lvl 10 and the other outfits are gacha skins. If you wanna save for skins i 100% recommend saving for the halloween ones they are incredibly good.

>>517834Not at all, I started with CinGray and it didn't hinder my appreciation of the series at all. I can't recall any times where I was left wondering if I'd missed some reference to or significance of other parts of the franchise. It's very much standalone.
I recommend everybody watch CinGray so they can enjoy the Japan Cup arc next season! It's my favorite race in all of Uma Musume.

I got attached to my horses even if they don't win races and I find my ID number funny, so I will just suck it up. Isn't like carats are extinguished and they won't put up another good support banner anyway. I will use this time in rock bottom to learn the game better and save up some carrots.

this game is really recapturing the autistic joy of the MLP craze that i have been missing, i love that its entirely female oriented and it's just a gauntlet of yuri every 10 seconds in both the game and anime. ive seen men bitching for getting banned from the discord for implying that the umas also fuck their male trainers, waifufags are an assblasted minority left to cope and seethe in comparison to the yuri faction of the fandom and im living for it. it's so refreshing to have a fandom be about the characters interacting instead of which character is the most breedable mommy or babygirl malewife. racing horses and earning their cute outfits is the only thing that brings me joy rn. i love my autistic gay horse daughters.

>>518301Mayano TG feels very much like a child so the heterosexuality is less an issue there than the presence of any romantic pandering with a presumably adult trainer.
>>518299Agree, I'm happy to see so many women get pulled into the game. Can't recall the last time women have flocked to a mobage outside of joseimuke like this as a wide-scale phenomena. Maybe Genshin? But this is much more wholesome to see.
No. 518321
>>518299>female orientedI mean yeah, the cast is female, but let's be totally real, it's obvious who the game's target audience is. People also insist that Love Live is "for" women when it clearly isn't. Unless it's explicitly marketed as shojo, most of the time when a piece of Japanese media consists entirely of female teenage characters, the target audience is neckbeard otaku moids.
So many Westerners seem to fall into the logical trap of "more female characters = more feminist." I partially blame the way the Bechdel Test has been misappropriated.

>>518321IMO the truth lies somewhere between you and the anon you're responding to. Uma Musume definitely understands that its primary paypigs are men but it's a franchise whose creators and output aren't so concerned with catering to that minority's every whim, and that has only become more true over time as later content aims for broader appeal.
I have a lot of grievances with Cygames, but most of their IPs do shoot for a more diverse audience than their peers. I don't say that to assert Cygames holds any feminist sentiment, it's just the content and marketing strategy that historically works for them, even prior to Uma Musume's inception.

>>517883I know you're asking about the anime but the game has made me start exercising longer. I get lost in it on the treadmill.
>>518299>the autistic joy of the MLP crazeI was waiting for someone to compare the two of these. I was a huge MLP kid and even past the horse girl aspect the characters and their dynamics (and even the musical numbers!) remind me a lot of it. I've never gotten into other gacha because of the type of stuff you mentioned but this one has been really refreshing in that regard. I wish the Yakuza memes were true kek
It also kind of reminds me of old school otaku stuff, where even despite the fanservice the girls were more often goofy and entertaining, like proper cartoon characters. I suspect this and the MLP thing are why it keeps making me feel so weirdly nostalgic.

>>518361>zomg it passes the Bechdel Test!1!!This is exactly what I was referring to when I said people misappropriate the Bechdel Test. A lot of harem anime passes the Bechdel Test, but that's absolutely meaningless when the whole damn genre is deeply misogynistic. Men do not give a flying fuck about "representing" women, they just want an all-female or predominantly female cast because they seethe with jealousy if their waifu talks about a guy or is even in the same room with one. They want the female characters to live in an all-female environment to ensure that they aren't filthy impure sluts tainted by men. That's how
they think. This is an example of how an IP can pass the Bechdel Test
because it's misogynistic, not in spite of it. Also Alison Bechdel is a fucking retard who thinks that her father groomed and molested his teenage students because he was ~misunderstood~.
Look, enjoy whatever you want to enjoy. If you're having fun with this moe horsegirl game, that's great. But don't try to frame consooming a waifu gacha for moids as "feminist." You do not need a sociopolitical justification for why you like what you like. Sometimes people enjoy things for surface level reasons, like the characters being cute, and that's okay.

>>518360I like this one with the grass being flown in
After the game got popular in the West a lot of JP fans started posting in English about their favorite umas, and a few of them said they were fans of the real horse before umamusume. I was a bit surprised at first but it makes sense since the owners agree to their depictions and there are rules even with fan content, so it wouldn't be seen as disrespectful. But I wonder how many OG racehorse fans are mad about it, especially if they don't like animu

>>518604I only came across one japanese "hater" account, and they mostly seemed to be mad that people place too much credit on umamusume for popularizing horse racing rather than any specific depictions kek. I know there was one owner who doesn't want his horses in the game (though this doesnt seem unique to umamusume) which there was some debate about. I was sad about this when I learned he owned Sodashi, who is an absolutely beautiful pure white mare (picrel), she's awesome.
The JP response is pretty wholesome tho, I got reccomended videos compiling translated english reactions to the game. I'm used to japanese fans being kind of shy in communicating with overseas fans, I think the pride of their homegrown horses getting famous is a big part of it.

I'm a huge fujo and my brain activated for this game when someone posted about how most of the characters are based on male horses. Now I see this game different. To me these are just cute traps or effeminate guys doing cute things, racing and training like in a cute and gay battle shounen. I can't stop masturbating to those thoughts either, some of the guys just look too handsome and cute with each other that my imagination just gets going. I just don't imagine anything from the waist down and it's basically free horse yaoi. I'm reclaiming this franchise from moids to my own coom. Umamusume's soul is yaoi.

So a woman believing herself to be inferior, and undeserving of equal rights; or women treating other women or girls as if their worth is based on their sexual attractiveness, are examples of internalised misogyny.

Many Japanese designers for female-characters are just simply very bad at what they do, because they play it safe 100% of the time, always inventing these caricatures of girls that have never known a man's touch so that the micropenis japanese males playing can feel confident they could please a woman for the first time in their lives by virtue of having no comparison.
They make some of the BEST GAMES in the world but Japanese males only have two genres of female character: Sexy Retard or Manic Autist Dream Girl. Booooooooooooooooooorrrrrriiiiiiiiiiiiinnnggggggg.

I find it funny an anon on a weaving basket forum making a fujo shitpost about a horse waifu game is considered misogyny and made the anons see red, and not a bunch of moids making a school girl dating sim with genderbent race horses topkek. I love this game but i am not going to sit and deep throat the moids who made it, i can like it without claiming it's feminist and anyone having any negative opinion about it is a pickme.

I do agree with you, the game's main target are men. But it's still not as coomer as 80% of mobages out there so it's normal women enjoy it and find it better than others, specially when the devs themselves forbidden porn of the girls and the said coomer stuff is just 4% of the game and can be easily ignored. If all you can think is "Ugggh men enjoy this, men will jerk off to this horse, men men men-" when playing then that's a you problem, sane people find stuff enjoyable according to their own tastes, not according the hypothetical fans they form on their head.

>>519383> If you can’t enjoy a game without automatically wanting to paint them in a light where you do want to sexualize them, then don’t play it.But that's the problem. They are sexualized. Like i said in my post, i would have loved Mayano if she wasnt a lolibait that's constantly talking about wanting to be an adult to date the trainer. It's fucking disgusting and it happens with so many more characters even if you set your trainer as female. There are even titty window outfits(like El's luchador outfit). Calling women pickmes for not feeling comfortable with that and wanting to enjoy the game without misogyny pickmes is ironic when you are defending a gacha waifubait game.
>>519388There are a lot of loli characters in the game, some just havent been added yet. And there is a lot of gross implications between the trainer and the girls in several routes.
>Do you even play (and read the dialogues of) the game?I do, that's why i am complaining in the first place. Mayano and Nice Nature are the worst about this. I wish all the girls had routes like Vodka, where it's focused on their relationship with other girls instead of having dates with the trainer, ew. So yes, i stand with my opinion that the game would be better with male horses because i wouldnt have to be subjected to lolibait to play a raising simulator.

And sometimes it's fun to be a fan of something with a large, active fanbase, so it's reasonable for women to go for stuff like Uma or Love Live if a mostly female cast is a high priority for them.

Just to share things that helped me personally:
Ignore Tazuna she knows nothing.
Speed is king, have at least 3 in your deck no matter what (how many more depends how much stamina you need or what your best cards are)
Spend your first year soley on tactically increasing your friendships so you can focus friendship training later.
Find an uma you can borrow with good sparks, a 9 star speed will get you a lot of extra speed before even accounting for compatability.
When running medium/long races if you're suddenly failing, chances are you need more stamina. It helps to have a minimum goal number in mind (picrel).
These numbers here are also fairly loose ime, you can get by with skills and luck too. And speed.
Sometimes you'll get super unlucky and your winning streak uma will get stuck behind others and place like shit but then you'll rerun the race and she'll win again. It seems to just happen sometimes even with good strength and skills.
It takes a bit of time to get a feel for it as well as some levels in your supports, but once you do you can win fairly consistently with less than you think.

>>519916I'm also still like this most of the time, in that my standards for series with male-majority casts are stupidly high, and unless the synopsis really appeals to my general tastes I'll hard pass a series that doesn't have major or at least good female characters. At this point my mentality is less "guys are boring" and moreso "women are inherently more interesting."
>it makes it hard to connect with other women in fandom (as most female spaces tend to focus on males characters or m/m stuff they find hot)Felt. I never cared for yaoi and spent too much time hating on it and fujos on deviantart and the anime forums/chatrooms of ye olde (despite always being very pro-gay when it came to reality kek). But I respect it now under the principle of nerd sisterhood. That being said I was always fine with otome/shoujosei and M/F stuff, but of course this was still primarily for the female characters.

I feel like god specifically made me break my hand, get laryngitis and go deaf from an ear infection in the span of a month purely so he could redirect my luck skill points towards horse gacha pulls. I am so happy.

Just a quick question, is the word "Horse" blacklisted in the game? I have been trying to make my Profile Comment stuff like "I like horses" and "On my horsegirl arc" but I get an invalid character error message every time. Only went thru it when I spelt it as h0rse.
Is there a swear word in there on some random language? I find pretty ironic a game about horse races banned mentioning horses kek.
Unrelated, but I saved for more pulls and I swear I'm getting every SSR card except for Kitasan, this is the 5th one in 110 rolls…!
I got used to gatchas to give pity rolls at the 100th roll, so it sucks having to save until the 200th on this one. But I'm glad early game gives you lots of carats fast and Umamusu Gods are very generous right now, hope I can save up for those 90 rolls left.

Started the anime out of curiosity. I'm so used to the waifuslop games I play to be an all-female cast (both the characters and SIs) that seeing they gave the girl a nasty male trainer in the anime is giving me a visceral reaction.
I wouldn't mind much if he was normal, but he was really introduced in the wrost way possible, I want a train to run over him. Hope he isn't too present so I can enjoy the anime, I'm here to see the girls' stories and development not that ugly ass monkey.
>>525638Same here nona, I'm at 170 scouts and no Kitasan yet… What I did today was to uncap all my cards (and level up all the SSR + a few SRs), my horsies and read the stories I had unlocked. They're things that are easily overlooked, but they gave me 3k Carats with no effort.
Pay attention to all the missions as well, some of them are relatively easy to do and give you a few Carats.

>The anime adaption is good so far but it doesn't have that same dark and gritty vibe that made me love the manga.The reason I put off watching the adaptation for so long is actually this– I'm immensely attached to the manga's original art style and the CinGray anime is not bad, but different and less distinct.
But then I watched Beginning of a New Era and I was just floored by how artistically ambitious it was for a sports franchise. I'd say it frequently borders closer to what you'd expect from a psychological genre series in tone and presentation. I really wanted more, so I reread the manga and then finally picked up the anime lol.
I still haven't watched the main series, to be honest… The style still throws me off but I love the universe of much that I'm sure I'll fold eventually.

Speaking of jrpg character similarities, I got attatched to Sweep Tosho immediately cos she reminds me of Willbell… both apperance and personality wise even.

>>525045I love the anime, but I hate the trainer mc. I think the trainer should have been a lovely woman instead. Thank god he barely has any screentime (a few second scenes at best that don't matter), but i still find him insuffering.
I really love how different each girl are, but as a person who grew up isolated, I couldn't help but cry for Special Week. But my favorite girl is Teio simply because of how much i love cute idol girls, that not counting Suzu who quietly cares for everyone. The anime also made me realise why people love Gold Ship - she is so chaotic, cool and unique! I wish trendchasers on twitter didnt draw shitty erotica of her. You just know they only know Gold Ship and Agnes names, and thats about it.

>>526636I'm getting really tired of the influx of new fans that get all their info about the characters from twitter memes.
There's so many slop engagement bait accounts posting misinformation about Keiba stuff too, for example the "Golshi is scared of Gentildonna and wasn't able to breed her" thing is made up. There's no record of them breeding kek and moids keep going on about how it's ok to coom to the characters because Scarlet's owner wanted her to have big boobs, which is just a rumor. Funny how moids love to call women "tourists" when they're the worst offenders spoilered for autistic rant

>>526394It's funny that the holier-than-thou nonnas who find it inconceivable that anyone could enjoy "borderline hentai" are doing it to the one gacha game where erotic art of the girls is expressly discouraged and has had the devs take action against it, kek.
If not for the gambling and some of the weird characters like Super Creek or Top Gun I feel like the franchise could've easily been marketed to young girls instead.

>>526671It sucks that not much of this information has primary english sources so they just pick up whatever they hear and run with it. It's as much a social media problem as anything else, i've been in fandoms before where people gleefuly ran with misinterpreted/mistranslated japanese sources, but man, it's a big peeve of mine. Even smart useage of google translate will get you far in verifying whether these things have any basis before going around making shit up.

>>526678Sperg ahead:
>If not for the gambling and some of the weird characters like Super CreekSeeing moids be degenerates about game Super Creek has been disgusting as a fan who hasn't played the games but loves Cinderella Gray. Her clearheaded willingness to be a villain in order to achieve her ambitions in the manga makes her one of the coolest characters. Meanwhile game Super Creek is apparently just… goo goo babies? What the hell?
I even saw troons crusading against the notion that these portrayals are unharmonious. Like of course the pornsick moids with the most degraded notions of womanhood still want to pigeonhole a character defined by ambition with zero motherly qualities into a mommy trope.

>>526757It wasn't a joke, it was presenting this as actual information while being horny about it. It made me uncomfortable as well.
Troons must also be retarded because while one horse may be used to sire many others, racehorsing isn't a sport that would have the incentive to support such mass single stud breeding. The dairy industry only does it to cut costs and maximize production.

I love love LOVE RICE! She's so cute! I love hearing her calling me oneesama! She's a sweetie and deserves a lot of love! Everytime I tell her that my wish is to support her career she cries of joy, I want to hold her! She's struggling with the Tenno Sho but other than that, she gave me perfect streaks! I love Rice!

I almost love McQueen's race outfit. I just wish that it was a full dress, or at least had a prettier skirt. The pleated miniskirt looks kind of random and shabby on an otherwise beautiful design.
Also the big round silhouette is super cute. It's not as present in the picrel fanart but ingame it makes her look like a little doll.
