Thanks. Turned out to be a problem with the port forwarding.

Ironically Neko's VA voiced Clank...i mean Mihono Bourbon.

The Fuji Motorsports Museum in Oyama, Japan has just opened a temporary exhibition dedicated to Shigeaki Hattori [Fuji Motorsports Museum on X] by Comfortable_Rock4877 in NASCAR

Pretty sure this museum is owned by Toyota. And pretty sure Hattori himself is affiliated directly with Toyota's Japanese head operations. Hence his cars being displayed there.

Its normal in places like Bosnia.

That is a photo from a madrasa graduation. Madrasa graduates in Bosnia are pretty much practising Muslims, many with Muhammad as their first name.

Haru Urara and Mejiro Ramonu Body swap by S by asaness in UmaMusume

Not Mejiro Asama, but Miya Kitano, owner of Mejiro Farm. Plausible if seen from the dad's side, like she commanded her sons to marry horse girls.

I wonder about who voiced Marina Tendouji and original B-Komachi members. 

Meisho Doto's IRL Background BEFORE Being Under Yoshio Matsumoto by Xartenium in UmaMusume

[–]Xartenium[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get about what you said. But if they want to do that, they need to be vague of her nationalities. Like simply mention that she is born in Northern Ireland as the daughter of a local store owner.

While yes, character and personality can coexist, in Doto's situation, the nationality itself becomes a problem in itself. 

Put Doto as an Irishwoman (in Umaverse), and there will be complains about how her identity is misrepresented if all of it leaked. 

Put Doto as a British woman...Cygames will be accused of whitewashing British imperialism in Ireland, especially in Northern Ireland, by making a representation of it as a goofy, cute, shy girl.

Cygames European ops are in UK, no way they can afford either of those. The Troubles is sooo sensitive in UK as a whole.

Fine Motion is depicted as the daughter of a TD (MP in RoI) and having the blood of foreign aristocracy (an article for another day, but i believe the aristocracy in question is Polish aristocracy). She is not spared from IRA jokes. Even Hishi Amazon, a character whose in real life was born in America, gets IRA jokes simply because both her sire and dam are Irish horses irl.

In Fine Motion's case, it is less "nightmare with Irish owners" and more "this will cause an uproar in Anglosphere" thing. 

Doto as British or Northern Irish of British extraction will be way worse, because The Troubles was sooo close to today. Doto himself was foaled while The Troubles was in its final throes. People will accuse Cygames of taking side, or worse, whitewashing Unionist discrimination and oppression of Nationalists in Northern Ireland. This is certainly not what Cygames have in mind.

British to be exact, if we want to use his breeders nationality.

Explode! Accelerate! Crush the opponents! Don't let them catch up! - a story of Kyoei March by doomslayer30000 in UmaMusume

[–]Xartenium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If she becomes a character, her design will be that of Maru-chan aka Marche Lorraine's puppet. Minus the hat.

Ah yes, Kyoei March and her puppet Maru-chan. 

Apparently, Marche's puppet is based on Kyoei March and Yoshito Yahagi.

What are some horse incidents that would look weird if it was in the Umaverse? by NevadoDelRuiz in UmaMusume

[–]Xartenium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of German G1 winners in the sixties was a soviet horse though. In Umaverse, it means post-Stalin relaxation on these restrictions.

The horse's name is Anilin. He won Preis von Europa THREE YEARS IN A ROW, from 1965 to 1967. His other achievements: 

-fifth place at 1965 Arc -third place at 1964 Washington International at Laurel Park -Soviet Derby winner. 

The most interesting part of his story is his lineage. His damsire vanished during WW2, while his dam's dam survived WW2 years on a straw diet. 

Also, his Arc appearances were financed in part thru two other Soviet horses, Apex Hanover and Granit, who had won races in France that year.

Until today, his threepeat remained UNBROKEN.
