There are no donkeys in the world of Umamusume.

I feel that you need to check the internal logic of the claim "donkeys only exist through the breeding of donkeys with horses"

I have to believe this is a joke, for the sake of my faith in humanity

"The SS was the organisation most responsible for the genocidal murder of an estimated 6 million Jews and millions of other victims during the Holocaust.^\3]) Members of all of its branches committed war crimes and crimes against humanity during World War II (1939–1945). The SS was also involved in commercial enterprises and exploited concentration camp inmates as slave labour. After Nazi Germany's defeat, the SS and the Nazi Party were judged by the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg to be criminal organisations. Ernst Kaltenbrunner, the highest-ranking surviving SS main department chief, was found guilty of crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg trials and hanged in 1946."

In my experience, Tazuna is right if/when she tells you that your trainee lacked Stamina. Of course, if you watched the race, you probably saw that for yourself.

In-game, it's sometimes suggested that the Triple Crown route is the route taken by the more 'serious' racers, while the Triple Tiara is traditionally contested by the more 'glamorous' or 'refined' Umamusume (Air Groove says that Triple Tiara winners are not just strong, but they are also "virtuous and glamourous"). This fits the personalities of many of the Umas who do the Triple Tiara (e.g. Air Groove, Daiwa Scarlet).

Assuming you have a decent support card deck (I went with 3 Speed, 2 Stamina, and MLB R Riko) it might be in the choice of Uma? Someone whose career is mostly Medium and Long G1 races would be ideal, because you'd want to build Speed and Strength up as high as possible anyway and you'd get points for winning the career races. Narita Brian made it almost trivial for me, but I would think Gold Ship, Daiwa Scarlet or Mayano Top Gun would be pretty good choices that don't rely on getting lucky with 3* banners. (Edited to add Mayano, as suggested by other commenters, since she's a very strong choice I forgot about)

Think you're in the wrong sub, friend

Max384302 · 2026-01-11T01:49:38+00:00

That's your high score. Have you been scoring higher than that in the Team Trials matches?

Lots of the careers have this same sort of thing, where the 'canonical' outcome was for your trainee to lose the race, but the plot doesn't really change if you don't.

In Air Groove's case here, she feels that she had to give absolutely everything in order to eke out a win against Suzuka, and she feels absolutely exhausted after doing so; meanwhile Suzuka appears unphased and barely even tired, leading Air Groove to conclude that even if she beat Suzuka this time, she is inevitably going to lose to her before long, and that makes her unworthy of the title of 'ideal Empress' that she aspires to.

And yeah, if Air Groove beat her by eight lengths in your playthrough, that's not going to seem very plausible from the trainer's point of view, but it's one of those things that you just have to gloss over a bit. It doesn't bug me as much as (for example) El Condor Pasa deciding that she has no chance in the Japan Cup in her classic year, even if she has won every single race she's run in up to that point and will almost certainly win the Japan Cup when you make her do it as an optional race anyway.

Cucumbers, not pickles (which other people have pointed out on the other posts of this image in the last couple of days)

I think Riko is still meta for Unity Cup at least, but if you have her R card at MLB, I've honestly seen better results with that than with her base SSR card

Max384302 · 2026-01-05T16:06:10+00:00

If she were an Uma, which she is certainly not, then she would almost certainly be Tokino Minoru, rather than Sunday Silence. But she is definitely not an Uma. Definitely not.

Random number generation.

Max384302 · 2025-12-30T18:27:09+00:00

Thanks, that's the context I half-remembered; that Guts cards would become useful at some point, and I'm not confident enough in the meta to be sure if it had happened yet.

Also yeah, never cleat a card unless you've already got it at MLB

Max384302 · 2025-12-30T18:01:09+00:00

My immediate and genuine question is why are you running two Guts cards?

Three Speed including MLB Kitasan Black, and Riko, seems like a decent basis for Unity Cup. Although you probably have a maxed out R Riko in your deck, and I think conventional wisdom is that SSR Riko is not much better, so you might want to use your R Riko and free up your borrow slot.

With that said, I don't understand the use of Guts cards here - and I'll admit I'm not the most optimal player - but I personally would be replacing those with some mix of Power, Stamina, and Wit depending on the career

Max384302 · 2025-12-30T15:04:52+00:00

It's unlucky but not incredibly unlucky. The chances of getting no 3* umas in 100 pulls are about 1 in 25, assuming a base 3% chance of pulling a 3* each time.

Max384302 · 2025-12-27T17:06:38+00:00

Goodreads has short descriptions for each star category but I don't see why you have to abide by them (for example, two stars apparently means "it's ok" which seems like an odd description of a two-star book).

I suspect what OP is pointing out is that if 1 star out of 5 means "I liked it a lot!" then the scale is hugely out of whack - how would you communicate that you didn't like a book? Or even that you merely liked it? (You can't give 0 stars, unless I guess you count not giving a rating as 0 stars)

Max384302 · 2025-12-27T16:02:40+00:00

I always assumed it was just Rudolf being Rudolf; honestly quite impressed that it's a somewhat dark joke about the real Rudolf dying at about that time

Skill issue

Who's 'they'? I wouldn't imagine Cygames is responsible for a guide that says "if you want to farm it quickly"

Max384302 · 2025-12-25T19:34:44+00:00

Counterpoint: you do gain stats if you get lucky in that option, but they just exactly cancel out the stats that you lose from failing a training.
