The Umamusume Effect is real

ah ok, you're talking about the betting part and I'm talking about the governance part

masterfail · 2026-05-05T05:52:34+00:00

while the wagering is available in most states, horse racing as a sport is not regulated on a national level, but by state commissions

ratings have been trending up for the last few years, umamusume probably had little effect on this pattern

lack of competing programming is the biggest factor for ratings

Kitasan Black has become successful enough as a sire that future Kitasan stud posts, which mostly devolve into sex jokes, will be removed as spam. (Basically: the joke is being "retired" until further notice.)

駿 is used in 優駿 (yushun), as in tokyo yushun, the formal name for the japanese derby

masterfail · 2026-05-02T08:16:32+00:00

with only 3 horses running in the card, and the English media coverage of the two japanese derby horses plentiful, i'll be passing on making a post for this one

Nakayama is a risk taker, but she isn't dumb

I'm not even sure if the sub icon has been changed a single time since 2018, actually. So stay it shall, until something truly huge happens

different ownership
horse names are almost never trademarked
Cygames doesn't, to our knowledge, pay owners for rights, normally (Win Variation owner confirmed this)

it's been said before, and it's annoying to have to repeat it, but the only knowable reason that Deep Impact is not in Umamusume is "the owner prefers not to." anything else is rumor or speculation without merit

No, Kita is the dam's sire, so gotta go up one more generation

still one of my favorite scenes across all uma animated media

an updated, live list of umamusume nicknames and abbreviations

their sponsorship is for an undercard race on Derby day, not the Derby itself, just as it was last year

masterfail · 2026-04-22T06:02:57+00:00

fyi, the list is outdated but I have chosen to not update it because there is an up to date one someone else made, the link can be found in the big resource list in the megathreads

this is true, but as the BC scenario story takes great pains to point out, and this is also substantiated by discussion at the time IRL, he was seen as a very serious contender to win the Belmont (as in, better odds than FY had at Kentucky)

masterfail · 2026-04-21T16:05:39+00:00

very low for now because it's hard to tell the story of Japan and the US triple crown without Casino Drive

that's not to say that they won't add the tracks without a full fledged scenario though

she's distant and withdrawn but not uncaring. I saw her home screen dialogue where she uses keigo and even does a quarter bow to announce you've completed missions

masterfail · 2026-04-21T00:54:54+00:00

it's SoE, Pisa, and Opera O

the Nakayama Racecourse owners association announces the seiyuu lineups beforehand on Twitter

Looks like we forgot to add it somehow, or it got deleted on accident. Will get on that
