[runic whale]

Hold on

[potent trail]

and also shout out to king halo speed, because it is very fun to me

kawakami be like

[runic whale]

She's princess and Halo is King

This is just so beautiful

Why is umamusume card art so peak

Actually, why is umamusume so peak

[potent trail]

for a second i was wondering if it was gonna be ssr maruzenky but ye, that is really atmospheric

[sudden sundial]

Okay first of all shoutouts to moms, always

Second of all: I really like this card for the rare, determined, serious-looking Neicha

[runic whale]

Which one

The one with her stupid countach

Stupid red car hahha (i can't ever afford it in my lifetime)

Higher quality

[sudden sundial]

And special shoutouts to the icons you dread to see the most. Visceral reaction

[potent trail]

oh fuck of course, i forgot the cute as fuck cafe

[runic whale]

I can already dissect this

The bats depict her fondness of biting you

[sudden sundial]

Cafe when Tachyon doesn't exist

[runic whale]

She's happier

[sudden sundial]

Also shoutouts to a future one

So much aura

[runic whale]

Yoo look, my favorite uma Limerence

[runic whale]

Didn't know Tsuyoshi was more

Successful

Than Teio

[potent trail]

i am eagerly awaiting laurel wit

sakuraaaaas

[runic whale]

I am hoping for Belno pal card

Oh my god

Long hair bakushin

[sudden sundial]

I wonder if a freshly bathed Chiyono smells like a wet dog

[runic whale]

Depends after what she did

[sudden sundial]

It's really easy to forget Bakushin has long hair. I feel like it shocks me once a month or two

[runic whale]

Can't tell with weird hair physics like that

Then I forget it's hair and it's thin

Who else should have their hair down

Neicha doesn't count she should keep her fluff

That's why i don't like her cheerleader alt skin.. Give me twin tail fluff

[sudden sundial]

Taiki definitely does

[runic whale]

Yall ever think about their shoes

[sudden sundial]

Once every 2 weeks

[runic whale]

The heel being there to support longer standing on their heels

[sudden sundial]

When I'm stealing them

[runic whale]

Even their running shoes, it's thin

I feel the only purpose of the heel there is to, well, hold their weight because they have human legs not horse legs

[potent trail]

recently i spent 40 minutes scrolling thru available shoes in final fantasy xiv trying to figure out which shoes would best fit my bakushin cosplay

turns out its savage gear which im too noob to do

[runic whale]

Mismatched boots because i think she wears that

Why's fantasy xiv

[runic whale]

Whats

[potent trail]

oh, mmorpg

[runic whale]

I've heard of it for the ps vita

A ship I've never seen before, nothing comes up on Google lens

[potent trail]

bakushin got mismatched gloves and shoes both, im unsure how many other horses have that

as a lover of sock markings on animals i approve though

[runic whale]

Almost all of them do

One of my favorite mismatched shoes is Creek's, I'm a sucker for gradients

I think none of them are symmetric

[potent trail]

yea, but creek doesnt have mismatched gloves in her racewear

(mostly, well bc she doesnt wear gloves)

[runic whale]

Because she doesn't have any gloves

Without gloves some do have mismatched sleeves

It's mostly on their legs where mismatched attire are usually found

Mommy? Sorry

[pine geode]

I get a few skills early on that I don’t think I’ll get more hints for, to give a boost in the early career

[runic whale]

Cingrey art style is great

[sudden sundial]

No rainbow trainings in Twinkle Star....

I know every race at the end gives you +22 to everything, but it feels bad to finish the finale and all you get is +10 from Etsuko. UC spoiled me with the barrage of bonus

Anyway. Really good skills but robbed in stats, maybe the extra G1s aren't worth it

[ruby mirage]

Probably mentioned in the comments on og post

[sudden sundial]

Man, even when most events are turned off, Kita will still find a way to now show up and give you Professor, huh?

[runic whale]

True, tastes good but doesn't look appetizing to foreigners because it's literally boiled chicken

[sudden sundial]

I mean, it's not like there were other events competing to show up, which I assume is most of the reason you sometimes don't get it in normal modes

Stego is the horse for which the stories never end

There will always be one more crazy anecdote

omg rare Stego video https://www.youtube.com/shorts/c48hCfhaCto

They had to lock him behind two doors

He even looks ready to fuck shit up

Truly the patriach of the Gold family

[potent trail]

best granpa...

[runic whale]

Lmao i think Evayan is the only uma that experienced war

[velvet pivot]

The nepo horse demands everything huh

I love how my club is just people trading long shoes back and forth because none of us have enough but all of us also want club points

[sudden sundial]

I'll never want shoes or sashes again after MANT

At least not until they add those dirt races in the future

[velvet pivot]

Finally happy with my Tama

Random S rank late my beloved

[velvet pivot]

I mean Long shoes are a bit more annoying because there aren’t that many long races to begin with

[blissful spade]

130 daily

[velvet pivot]

My headcanon as to why uma Stego is so calm compared to her irl counterpart is because she remembers all of the crazy shit he did

Like she definitely remembers stuff like Stego sniffing his own poop, crying, then immediately going for it again

We also know Uma Stego played a large part in Dream Journey’s life hence why she’s a calm and collected model student while the IRL Dream Journey was actively trying to kill humans

I do love the bit from one of the JP ads where Stego just leaves

[runic whale]

She's cute

That's how he met Oriental Art

[ruby mirage]

Love the art.
But damn, so many "fans" harrassing, doxxing and threatening op for this drawing. They had to deactivate their account after posting.

[runic whale]

Because people hate seeing their "wives" turn them gay

That's why this thread is the only piece of the Umamusume fandom where I talk in because everyone here is like minded with yuri support

We love gays here

[ruby mirage]

When umareddit is more civilised than the umatwt

[runic whale]

Twat stays twat

Umareddit has much more yuri, it's great

[ruby mirage]

Umareddit also has uma x trainer that is actually good.
I see a few accounts on the bird site that say they get harassed if post either uma x trainer or umayuri. Can't even post anything there 😭

[runic whale]

Uma x trainer is a mixed basket for me

It has to be extremely specific, like Fumino Nase and Creek, they look like they're close in age

But age is practically non existent in umamusume anyway, it's the power imbalance that's wrong

One of my main concerns is also why a trainer specifically and why does it have to be a Male trainer

[ruby mirage]

Basically this post

[ruby mirage]

It is fine to not like it.
But a lot of people love to harass artists about it 💀

[runic whale]

I won't attack anyone that makes or likes it but

You already know my stance

Although even there, it's still an imbalance

If umamusume wasn't musume no one would care if it had yaoi but for some reason it doesn't work if it's vice versa

Maybe it's why cygames never went ahead and declared gay umas because the majority would be very mad

Evayan might change things

[ruby mirage]

https://www.rxddit.com/r/UmaMusume/comments/1rv5ju7/

[ruby mirage]

Idk who yanko is actually shipped with. Loves only you already has marche lorraine.

TIL I have this card

I...have no idea when or how?

[potent trail]

reasonably sure that was an event card

[sudden sundial]

Oh

That makes sense

Well it's a good card and it's great for Late Surgers so

[runic whale]

Marvelous

[sudden sundial]

Feeling like I get the best of both worlds with this

[ruby mirage]

Marvelous Sunday & are great general cards. Both cards have 10+ race bonus

Luckiest first turn

[sudden sundial]

Golden first turn

[ruby mirage]

[potent trail]

oh, btw turns out g2 and g3 have same amount of stat/sp gain. so in case of g2 vs rival g3, it is indeed better to do rival g3 due to items/hints. g2 does give more grade points but it's not like you have to actively grind for a grade at any point

[sudden sundial]

I did wonder about the stat/sp difference, thanks

[potent trail]

i dont think ive ever encountered a g1 without rival so far, so thats a nonissue

[sudden sundial]

I've seen them but when they're not your specialty, so the game doesn't even pretend it's an option

[ruby mirage]

Two crack ships that i think could work:
x
x Wonder Acute

Former from the "Keeping It Cute!" event.
Latter because i feel both umas have similar personalities and i think they would be great together

Tiny Haru!

[runic whale]

100 pulls for doto, didn't get her

Shit luck

[potent trail]

okay so, fully theoretically, if all A oguri runs this schedule and wins every single race

she gets this laundry list of epithets

there are a few more you could get but theyd cut into summer camp so, meh. some epithets also dont seem possible right now (presumably we´re waiting for new g1 dirts?)

[sudden sundial]

Add Yasuda Kinen in Classic early June and the Champions Cup in Senior late December, and JDD in Classic early July; coward

Genuinely, getting it all would be amazing, definitely a run moderately dependant on luck but it would be fun to try a few times

I do think, from my own experiences, the extra G1s are not worth the risk compared to a more "safe" schedule.

Running my first horse that can only do Medium and Long...

It's a perfectly fine schedule, only missing out on Breackneck Miler, but there's some good gaps for extra training

Still does most of the stuff up in that image

[sudden sundial]

Does anyone know which races count for Globe-Trotter?

I only know of the Saudi Arabia one and the Copa Republica Argentina, I don't have a third and I don't want to look at the whole list

[sudden sundial]

Looked it up, there's a New Zealand race that is on the same turn as Satsuki Sho, a Brazil race that is Dirt, and CRA is already on the same turn as Queen Elizabeth

So, nobody can get Globe-Trotter

(If there's more than those 4 with a country in their name, I missed them)

[potent trail]

well, this is first oguri thats gotten past junior year. mid training rng with a weak start, mostly terrible hint rng (finemo didnt give speed star and kita didnt give professor til second half of senior, and i maybe couldve spent a little less during run but i was worried she wouldnt clear), i wasnt all orange before first summer camp, item store wasnt spectacular but also didnt tank me. she had to redo champions cup in senior year bc i was out of clocks. still my new strongest horse edit: that part is a lie i checked wrong, she's fifth

i can see the golden path, it exists somewhere

[sudden sundial]

Yeah that looks promising, if a enough things go well she's definitely getting the most out of MANT any uma can get

[potent trail]

the fact its christmas oguri definitely saved this run multiple times, i was right to pick up hydrate/triple 7s/corner recovery immediately

yaaay that gets me to S1

[ruby mirage]

CM11 gonna be hell. Max stamina required + gold recoveries. 3200m on heavy turf will drain so much hp

Idk how much stsmina christmas oguri will need if she has 3 gold recoveries for her unique

[sudden sundial]

Gonna be a good one for my Cafe and Taishin who require less Stamina

Maybe worth making a Golshi too

Long is also where Neicha gets to do her most damage, I should build one for sure

With MANT she gets plenty of stats and SP

But yeah, Later surgers and Closers are gonna be your best friends if you don't feel confident of getting a 1000+ Stamina Pacer/Front runner who's also competitive in the other stats

[sudden sundial]

Please take a moment to appreciate Cafe's casual clothes

I love The Dark Horse

[pine geode]

The only other one is the American JCC in senior late January

[sudden sundial]

Not sure if that one counts

Ultimately the issue is the races that overlap with G1s that allow for better epithets

[sudden sundial]

I rose Cafe's Mile aptitude to B for some extra races, and now all the rivals show up in Mile races only, they won't let me beat them in Medium or Long

Feels like the game is telling me "Don't do that"

[ruby mirage]

[velvet pivot]

I got beat out by a Bakushin in long. I don’t know what happened, nor do I want to know

[sudden sundial]

Just a random G2 losing for no reason, I hate it

If I'm blocked, I'm blocked; but I don't accept this random nonsense

[ruby mirage]

[velvet pivot]

Hope he and his trainers stay safe, given that there have been drone strikes near Meydan racecourse during a G3 race

[velvet pivot]

Who is that uma I’m scared

[sudden sundial]

Golshi if the Mejiro genes were dominant

[velvet pivot]

The Uma writers are prolly having a headache rn with how the fuck they’re going to write this into her story

[sudden sundial]

Can't get too reall, so maybe just an event about getting a long layover at an airport

-1 mood

[velvet pivot]

I’d be shocked if the Dubai World Cup even goes ahead at this rate

I just feel sad for the team because they must’ve trained hard for this and now they’re going home due to… you know

“"average uma eats 3 spiders a year" factoid actualy [sic] just statistical error. average uma eats 0 spiders per year. Matikanetannhauser, who lives in cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier adn [sic] should not have been counted”

[sudden sundial]

Every time I get Skin Outbreak it immediately triggers, it pisses me off

[velvet pivot]

Oh yeah same for me, if I see the thing that cures it its an insta buy because of how annoying it is

Bad pony???

[sudden sundial]

Yeah but it doesn't matter and it's why it pisses me of

Get Skin Outbreak, -1 mood, it triggers immediately for another -1 mood; all before you can use anything

[arctic kayak]

i think opera and fuji are a good duo

[sudden sundial]

When you only have one turn to raise mood two times and you get stroll/shrine then Claw Machine

She has no right being this cute

[ruby mirage]

Hoping i can reach 200 pulls before the banner ends. I am at 138 pulls right now. 50 free pulls will be given after today. So i need 12 extra pulls to reach 200.

im lowkey convinced first runs have slightly boosted rng. this is supported by my personal bias

[sudden sundial]

I've started to skip G2 and G3 races up to the first summer camp if there's no rival, I'd rather raise friendship

I don't think the stat gains is worth without a rival, and I'm never hurting for currency, and without a rival nothing gets added to the shop

oooooh, uma.guide added in depth agenda planner

@sudden sundial now we know exact globetrotter conditions!

[sudden sundial]

....didn't think Japan counted

That's on me

Okay well Saudi Arabia is free for anyone that can run Mile, Copa Argentina only if you're not doing Queen Elizabeth, NZ is a never because Satsuki Sho

American is like late January or early February so anyone with the aptitude can do it

And then it's either JDD in early July or Japan Cup

Then I should have some horses with Globe Trotter in them and I just didn't notice

[potent trail]

so it seems like the absolute best case agenda you can make is +370 stats, a hundred more than triple crown mil-long agenda

[sudden sundial]

If you do Teio Sho in Senior you don't get the Spring Crown epithet

Switch that, and add the extra Yasuda and Mile Championship

[potent trail]

nope, thats wrong

you dont have to do them in same year, it doesnt matter

i know that for a fact

[sudden sundial]

Huh

[potent trail]

and i cant add second mile championship, ya need japan cup

[sudden sundial]

sorry I meant Champions Cup in early Dec

Is it not more stats with the extra Yasuda and CC?

Assuming you don't die of course

[potent trail]

aah. you just need 5 dirt g1s, doesnt matter really which

[sudden sundial]

Huh

[potent trail]

presumably its not worth the risk of tanking -10 in stats and skin outbreak immediately dipping you into awful? im not fully certain

[sudden sundial]

Okay yeah, I have several horses with it

SA, American and Japan Cup is the way to go

Those are in my default Mile-Long schedule

[potent trail]

yaya very good

anyway ffxiv raid is done, back to trying out this guts taishin

[potent trail]

me this entire time: hm. she's gonna end up very .... "perfectly balanced as all things should be". im not getting a good speed here, the rank will probably suck-

um, lol nope, das a record

we are doin so daijobu, im one run away from S2 rank i think

My pre-MANT best Taishin was also averaging a 43k. That horse is really just as good as the top tiers, people sleep on Taishin

I just noticed that Mambo’s outfit doesn’t have a hole for her tail so her tail just kinda clips through it lol

[ruby mirage]

The people who complain about the trans umas to cygames don't realise that cygames themselves have 2 transgender characters in their games

[runic whale]

Yes, they really don't know that they're vastly an accepting company

I think they have official queen couples, barring ones in umamusume like teiomaku and daiwauokka

[ruby mirage]

If they could, they would make the umas kiss (rudoguri in first trailer). But they havr to have the permission from the horse owners first.

[ruby mirage]

[runic whale]

Big proof is the original direction and cast

King Kamehameha literally chasing HishiAma wanting to kiss her and is absolutely flirty with her

[runic whale]

McQueen is a cute twink

He and Teio can do Yaoi

They do yaoi irl

[runic whale]

But yes, to turn them gay you'd need permission

That's why Nishino Flower and Seiun Sky are gay because they're both owned by the same dude

[potent trail]

so after some more fiddling, this is an alternative schedule that gives same stattage but has more mile focus (so mile straightaway instead of homestretch) (also after some more review the previous one probably isnt actually as good... its a lil complex)

yasuda classic kinda depends how your bonds are doing at the time, might be beneficial to skip if a training would push some orange

[sudden sundial]

Is tiara and those titles with like (Lady etcetera) really worth more than the crown?

[potent trail]

apparently so!

[sudden sundial]

They don't even give stats

Mile Straightaway, I feel all Straightaways are okay at best. And Homestrech Haste doesn't feel as good as it should be

Oh, you get Legendary either way, tiara or crown

Okay so the only difference is Mile a Minute that gives Mile Straightaway

Ah, it's because of Heroine

[potent trail]

i think so, but you mightve been right about the classic/senior requirements last time, i think i actually lied in the end when i said it doesnt matter for example, what arima you do

[sudden sundial]

Stunning doesn't have anything extra

[potent trail]

also goddess

[sudden sundial]

Yeah I was pretty sure but not enough to contest it. The crowns are the crowns, you can't get the Fall Crown with the previous year's Takarazuka

[sudden sundial]

You can get Goddess even if you do the crown

It's Fillies, Victoria and both Queens

[potent trail]

goddess requires lady

[sudden sundial]

Oh you need Lady

wtf why do they hate the crown

Okay yeah, go for the Tiara every time

Literally just worse to do the crown

We support women I guess?

[potent trail]

personally what hurts most is takamatsuidontrememberfullname sprint race at same time as osaka hai

that is so mean of them

[sudden sundial]

Ah wait, Phenomenal and Incredible require Stunning, and they're both +15

Goddess is 15 but Heroine is 10

Ah okay

It's just the consequence of Sprint Speedster, you can't do Osaka Hai so The Crown is instantly worse, you can't get one of its extra titles if not both

Under regular circumstances, The Crown and its sequels give 10 more stats than the tiara

Okay, good to know

Like, I knew your thing was including the sprint stuff but I thought if the tiara was better it could be inherent

[potent trail]

if we go by community approved presets triple crown beats triple tiara, but triple tiara plus sprint evens out triple crown, and then you add dirt on top

[sudden sundial]

Yeah just 5 Dirt wins is gonna be better

Hard to do the 10 one, impossible to do 15 and also the regular preset

[potent trail]

and with these modifications (mainly shields and fall champion) and se it puts you at 370

[potent trail]

yaya

[sudden sundial]

Since you can't get the Spring Crown, if you switch the TnS Spring for anything else, is there something to gain?

If there's a Dirt in that turn, it could save you from one of the two 4 races in a row

Same if you try for Umatastic...

[potent trail]

@sudden sundial keep the g3s instead of centaur stakes, its not stat loss and you add extra epithet

[blissful spade]

when fine gets a little bit of motion

[sudden sundial]

Right, I kept moving things trying for both and forgot to pick the good ones, but you're right

[potent trail]

and if ya need extra training space for oranging bonds, you can remove early february classic without consequence

late march classic too

oh and late october junior. hmm. ill have to keep that in mind if i have a good training, oranging in time is probably more worth it

[sudden sundial]

Yeah those extra possible turns are clutch sometimes

three. hundred. sixteenth pull. and this is 2lb vega

lets look it up

[ruby mirage]

ye okay, if free pulls fail that seems like a good crystal option for me

[ruby mirage]

going to crystal my agnes tachyon sr. barely got her after so many pulls. still at 2LB

[potent trail]

a very good choice, absolutely

still, id wait after free pulls

ya never know

[ruby mirage]

yeah, i only have like 11 gold shards

[potent trail]

aah

i kept the previous crystal we had

[ruby mirage]

used my first one on sweep tosho

[potent trail]

didnt need it for anythin at the time

[ruby mirage]

when she was meta sr in unity cup

[potent trail]

nod nod, wise choice

[blissful spade]

I used mine on 2lb marvelous and 3lb tachyon so now they're on my MANT decks

[potent trail]

okay so, with some more fiddling i think ill be running this for oguri/pasa/all-a setups. gives me most space for orange bonds which ive been struggling with (unless grilled carrots happen). early march senior could be swapped for late march classic, if bonds are good

i know nishiho flower should be soon and i like teeny so i wanna try my tickets for her, but dont plan to use carats to pull her

[sudden sundial]

I assume she's gonna be soon if she's implemented on that level as a non-playable Rival

I wonder how rare this is

Perfectly round rating

[potent trail]

nishiho is ~april 10. shakur on ~june 4. rob roy not until ~september 5. thats about it for whom im somewhat interested in. mostly i should be in saving mode for November Carat Decimation bc november has laurel and chiyo ballroom and bakushin sports. and frankly i need every single one of them

[ruby mirage]

Insane free 10 pull. NTR & Agnes at 3LB

[sudden sundial]

Neicha too

Onlu 0LB but still, you never know

But I have MLB NTR and AV so I'm fishing for pure luck with the freebies

Also no mambo in those pulls??

I have machitan at 3* already because i love her outfit

[potent trail]

1 sr. which i already mlb'd

[sudden sundial]

ya know, the ura card that ill be totally needing

congrats that'd be the least useful sr even if she wasnt mlb'd

I'd rather get the tosho sr and Manhattan

Both so good

I don't know what life is like after MANT but I bet they'll still be useful

[runic whale]

After MANT is an easy event where you can get +70 to stats

It's an idol career i think

L'arc is a bit challenging, needs some locking in because you're not guaranteed to win Prix L'Arc

If you have ok overseas aptitude then you'll only get ok stats

Wow that scarlet card is horrible farther away, i had to look twice

[sudden sundial]

I'm gonna try this for my first Taishin run, I really want the acceleration Gold from Yukino so I had to take Neicha, even tho her gold is for late surgers the other skills are fine and the 15% RB is very much needed

70%RB, hoping the skills deliver

[potent trail]

lets see, what did i use for my guts taishin again

[sudden sundial]

End closers don't have great cards for them

[potent trail]

it def wasnt as good

[sudden sundial]

Holy hell, these horses love Taishin. Every turn is at least 3 of them in one of the trainings

[potent trail]

in hindsight i prolly shouldve kept speed card, especially since my taishin is medium tt

i just thought id have trouble with stamina more

[sudden sundial]

Yeah I'm reticent to go full guts

[potent trail]

should be 3 guts 2 wit 1 variable

[sudden sundial]

I really appreciate NTR's golden green skill

[potent trail]

at least accordin to guides

ive been trading higher race bonus for desired skill cards (while making sure i keep 50 minimum)

[sudden sundial]

Yeah I've started to do that too, my Late Surger deck is cemented, still but also sadly at 65%

[potent trail]

basically same here, sans mlb ntr

stiill missing one pull on that

but well, with 100 freebies ill hit second pity

which is kinda tragic for my carat savings but welp

absolutely horrible that ill probably stay stuck with borrowing sr vega for gut runs, but yet again, welp

[sudden sundial]

For Pace chasers best I feel I can do is this at 50%

Yukino's Corner Connosseur just feels really good to have no matter what

[ruby mirage]

Yogibo Farm

[sudden sundial]

I don't have a solid 6th card there, Kita is fine but I don't really feel like Pace Chasers get good use out of it, so maybe I'd just throw a Nishino for 65%

[ruby mirage]

I think only other uma (right now) that has that skill is regular oguri

[potent trail]

i think that particular skill still awaits some rebalance patch to make it stronk

[sudden sundial]

idk about that but maybe

[ruby mirage]

That is what mlb gets you

[sudden sundial]

Still, accelaration feels like the real game changer when every horse is 1200 SPD or close to that

I don't have a deck for frontrunners, for me that's just Bakushin which can't use her card, and Suzuka which I already peaked somehow with a standard deck

I guess for FR you just have to full guts?

[potent trail]

find a ssr falcon pow to borrow, and you have mlb bourbon wit

[sudden sundial]

Ohhh

[potent trail]

otherwise im planning to pull on ssr maruzen speed

To be fair, Ayaba has no idea that's romantic

She's just a night owl

[runic whale]

Oh they skipped over the Takarazuka Kinen

They did the second Tenno Sho she won

[sudden sundial]

That sounds right to me, I only remember her beating Bourbon and McQueen

[potent trail]

vega is literally the brightest star of lyra constellation. curren is ACTIVELY flirting here

[runic whale]

McQueen twice

McQueen more like mcLame

[velvet pivot]

Now that’s what we like to see

[sudden sundial]

That's her anime moments to me, besides being gay with Bourbon in Road to the Top

[potent trail]

"vega is prettiest star in the sky!"
"huh, wonder what she means"

[runic whale]

I think all of the umas are perpetually gay

[sudden sundial]

Holy hell I underestimated Curren Chan

[runic whale]

Dense competition
ayabe vs neutron star

[sudden sundial]

I'm sorry Curren Chan, I wasn't familiar with your game

[sudden sundial]

Ayabe wins

She isn't even aware she sees Opera as a rival

Terminally dense

Denser than a harem protagonist

[runic whale]

Denser than a yuri protagonist that got confessed to by another girl

[potent trail]

i dont have her so idk her career much but apparently admire vega is Haunted by a Ghost or something, so maybe i can excuse her doing an active bakarina roleplay

[runic whale]

This will take 10 episodes to decode

[sudden sundial]

Yeah her twin

Let's just say, twins are not carried to term when a horse is pregnant. Deliberately

[runic whale]

I think the twin is unborn?

[potent trail]

no, bakushin is her twin. like visually

but also, well

yaknow

[runic whale]

Bakushin is the bakarina

When i watched Bakarina that was my first insight; "this girl literally bakushin"

[potent trail]

it simply must be said

[sudden sundial]

Anyway, Ayabe and Fuku should not be allowed to hang out that shit would get depressing

[runic whale]

Same hair same density same FOREHEAD

[runic whale]

Agreed

Need someone to keep them happy

Curren Chan for Ayabe and

Who does Fuku get shipped with

I don't even see trainer ship for her, hetero nor homo

[sudden sundial]

I don't know but with Mambo as a roommate she's not in danger of being alone with her thoughts

[runic whale]

Don't let her think on her own

[sudden sundial]

Ultimately Fuku's romantic interest is the god or goddess of luck

[runic whale]

Also i think Fuku has ayabe beat in the fucked up front because Fuku has an actual doppelganger

Lemme find that one doujin

[sudden sundial]

Yeah that was pretty fucked up

[pine geode]

There’s an event where Manhattan Cafe, Meisho Doto, and Matikanefukukitaru talk about their experiences with the supernatural together

[potent trail]

i played fuku career recently and tbh i failed to find the angst in there the dead sister is simply too vague, all you have is that one lake drowning (and its not treated with enough gravity to have impact). now, taishin on the other hand is being actively fighting against odds and crashing out pre kikuka sho, while chiyono o is slowly creeping in existential dread thats gradually ramping up.

jury is out on gold city, i need to find time to play gold city. im holding yall to the angsty potential

[runic whale]

Gold city angst is a given

[sudden sundial]

Doto?

[runic whale]

Doto is Fuku's assistant in the anime

I always see her with Fuku saying shit or something when Spica goes to Fuku for her insights

[sudden sundial]

What's her supernatural gimmick?

[runic whale]

She's unlucky or clumsy i forgot

[sudden sundial]

Oh

[runic whale]

demon.exe

[pine geode]

I misremembered
It was Doto, Manhattan Cafe, and Yukino Bijin

[potent trail]

jordan was a nice surprise throughout, she's got just the right balance of angsty and uplifting. and well, absolutely peak trainer writing

[pine geode]

Doto goes to the latter two because she took a photo of a ghost and is scared

[potent trail]

gods i wish a lot more trainers were written like jordan's

[runic whale]

Fuku's isn't even supernatural, it's entirely another thing

Creepy

[potent trail]

fuku is actively supernaturally blind, actually

[runic whale]

She's aware she has a doppelganger i think

[potent trail]

like there's event where she climbs a mountain with trainer and you keep hearing and seeing ghosts and she doesn't notice jack shit

[potent trail]

trainer even explicitly says "for a fan of supernatural she doesn't seem to have any sixth sense"

[sudden sundial]

Yeah I knew of the IRL backstory and it just....doesn't land honestly, in the game

[potent trail]

weeeell tbh that scene had a "fuku effectively dreams this mid chat with trainer" sooo

[sudden sundial]

To me she's just the gamba girl, her meme personality is her character as far as I'm concerned

[potent trail]

i read it more like, a metaphor for inner awakening or something. its the "+30sp and 5 in stats" event

[pine geode]

“Fear the Fearless”

Damn Yukino

[runic whale]

Why she talk like applejack

[sudden sundial]

I don't know anything about Yukino aside from the fact she hides her accent

She's the classic "country bumpkin in the big city" kinda character I guess

[pine geode]

She’s from the countryside and wants to be a city girl
Big admirer of Gold City. They often hang out. Gold City likes to learn about the countryside from her.

[runic whale]

Special Week should've also talked like that

[sudden sundial]

And when you're from the countryside, you have for sure seen some freaky shit

By the age of 5 you're gonna see some freaky shit

[runic whale]

But we're talking about countryside Japan

[potent trail]

if i ever pull ardan by happenstance id love to read her career. glass legs ough. ough.

must be hell to play tho

[runic whale]

They talk about bugs and eat ice cream

[potent trail]

but as narrative device? delectable

the stuff she has in chiyo's career is wonderful

[velvet pivot]

Huh

Did I overdo it?

[potent trail]

nah 33 races is about middle spot

[runic whale]

Race all year round

[potent trail]

have ya checked guides to know what epithets to chase?

[sudden sundial]

Yeah 33 is fine for Mile-Long, there's little reason to do more aside from a big need for currency, you're not gonna get any other epithets

If you can run Sprint-Long you might easily end up doing 36?

There's only 60 turns after all, and Summer Camp takes 8

[potent trail]

basically, mine is 35 races

[velvet pivot]

Ye, I dropped the miler one to do +48 friendship speed training

[potent trail]

well, for sprint/long turf/dirt

[sudden sundial]

I checked my King and she did 36

Turf only

[pine geode]

I got 40 in my rudolf miler career, but it was more of a crutch for me to keep racing. I feel weird about not racing because I often feel like my training options are less good.

[sudden sundial]

Oh that counts the climax

[pine geode]

37*

[sudden sundial]

Well, I assume most totals given do, it's easier to just grab the number from the profile. Regardless, 36 races and wins

[pine geode]

I guess 36 without the debut

[sudden sundial]

I think debut is counted. I've definitely tested that it counts for what finale you get

If you do let's say 5 mediums and 5 miles and your debut was one of the either, it will decided the finale

After all, you can't get Undefeated if you lose a debut

[potent trail]

oh thats good to know

[ruby mirage]

it is palmer's birthday

[sudden sundial]

Her bestie should give her a gift

[pine geode]

[runic whale]

Wei and Palmer is the perfect Angst

Helios looks at someone else while Palmer is ignored despite being the one closest to her heart

[sudden sundial]

Meanwhile Tosen be like:

I used two golden hammers in HJF and Hopeful Stakes because I was like "surely I'll get 3 more by the end of the run, this is still Junior year"

Guess who's at second summer camp with no hammers

Every day new ways for MANT to bring me down

[pine geode]
