Uma Musume.
They were born to run.
Uma Musume were born with the names of creatures from another world.
Bringing along their brilliant yet sometimes strange history.
They run alongside the inherited souls.
That is their destiny.
Nobody knows the result of their races in this world yet.
Thus, they continue to race.
Aiming only for the goal in front of them.
Under the early spring sky, an important battle that will determine the fate of the Classic race is about to begin.
The horse girls heading to the gate are already full of spirit.
Sorry, I'm late!
Pokke! Come here, quick!
What are you doing? The race has already started!
Sorry, sorry.
Don't eat while running!
The lineup is now complete
With this, the race that will begin the start of a new era....
...is now....
...starting!
Woah, that's a lot of cheers.
It really is different from the freestyle race.
Is this also your first time watching twinkle series live, Pokke?
Well yeah.
I wonder how fast the ladies here are.
Let's take a look!
Fuji Kiseki, Fuji Kiseki quickly overtakes and lines up with the leading Kira no My Way.
Yayoisho Nakayama-Turf-Clockwise-2000m-Sunny-Heavy Track
It's crazy out here!
Fuji Kiseki is aiming for the lead.
But Kira no My Way slightly maintains the pace on the inside.
She's leading by half length.
Look, that one's fast.
Go! Keep going and win!
Fuji Kiseki lines up with the advancing Kira no My Way.
Now they're in top gear trying to overtake Fuji Kiseki,
and are entering the straight course!
The Nakayama straight is short!
Go, go, go!!!
Get her, get her!!!
No, it's not over yet, no!!!
Will Fuji Kiseki be left in the dust!?
Fuji Kiseki is leading, Fuji Kiseki is leading!
Coming from the outside is Hopper Bubbler!
She's rising from the second! Will she be able to overtake!?
But Fuji Kiseki is strong, very strong!
Is she trying to accelerate and widen the lead!?
She's not giving in!
Look at the show of power! Fuji Kiseki's power!
She's leading by two lengths, and...!
Finish!
As expected, Fuji Kiseki is strong.
This is her fourth consecutive wins ever since debut!
There's a lot of expectation in her goal towards Classic Triple Crown!
That was seriously insane!
Yeah, Twinkle Series is on a whole different level.
Pokke, let's go home!
I wanna run too...
Huh?
I also... wanna run like that.
Like that girl from earlier.
Faster than anyone.
Pokke-san!?
I've made up my mind!
I'll get into Twinkle Series...
Beat up all the strong guys...
And then....
I'll become the strongest!
Run, run and surpass our dream!
Ready!
Steady!
Derby!
To the other side of a speed we've never seen before
(Warm up is perfect!)
Look, horseshoes stepping on the earth
Miracle right before the goal, final corner decides the race!
All that's left is to go all out until our breath stops!
The audience claps tens of thousands of hands
A deafening roar echoes
The fanfare sounds!
My heartbeat races!
The second hand starts moving, and the gate of dreams opens!
(Let's go!)
Run, run and chase after our dream!
Who else will be the next winner?
Aim to be the superstar!
The meaning of life will show itself after we exerted everything.
(I want to win!)
This is our instinct!
(I want to run!)
An unstoppable impulse
(I wanna shout!)
Let the victory roar resound!
So? What do you think? Cool outfit, huh?
You looked cool, Pokke.
You've finally move up in the world, being in consecutive win streak since your debut.
Hehe, keep the praise coming, Fuji-san.
Fuji, don't spoil her too much!
Now that we've reached the highest level of junior race,
The competing Uma Musume will be on a whole different level than before.
Don't let your guard down, and proceed with caution.
I understand, this is where my journey to become the strongest finally begins.
Well, just focus on giving it your all.
It'll be okay.
You can do it.
Having Fuji-san told me that gave a lot of confidence!
Alright, I'll blow everyone with my speed today!
See, you're always so cocky!
Confidence and arrogance are diff-
I have enough of Nabe-san's sermon!
I'm off!
Pokke, we're not done here!
I'll finish first by the way!
Look forward to it!
National sports entertainment
Twinkle Series
I, Izumoto, will provide the live report.
While Yamamoto-san here will provide the commentary.
Alright, thank you very much.
The Hanshin racecourse is blessed with good weather and a huge crowd in the audience seat.
With this, participants are now entering the course for today's main race.
Yo
I've heard the rumors.
I guess this is our first race together.
Nice to meet you.
You're.... fast.
What makes you think that?
I can smell your powerful aura.
You can't hide it from me.
I've raced with a lot people after all.
I see, you're that girl who transferred from freestyle.
The name's Jungle Pocket.
I see, I can sense the quality.
The bone structure, muscle tone, and flexibility of the joints are all excellent
No wonder you've been undefeated so far.
W-What were you doing!? Who do you think you are!?
My name is Agnes Tachyon, Jungle Bucket-kun.
I know that!
Also my name is Jungle POCKET!
I'm joking of course.
Let's both do our best today
Jungle Pocket-kun.
It's her!
Pokke-san!
Is that her racing outfit?
Woah, you look proper now!
Can't believe she's in G1 now.
Oh, Fuji Nee-san, Trainer-san!
Thank you for your hard work!
Hello.
Huh, isn't that...?
It seems Trainer Tanabe have come out of retirement.
Looks like it.
Either he found a really promising Uma Musume,
Or he thinks he still have some unfinished business here.
In any case, this is a good thing.
The entry process is going smoothly
Hopeful Stakes,
The final line that will predict next year's Classic Triple Crown races.
What was that girl's deal?
Oh, whatever.
Each Uma Musume have entered their gate.
As long as I beat every single one of you...
Hopeful Stakes...
...I win!
Start!
After such a good start, the Uma Musume are finally approaching the first corner.
Everyone seem to be wary of each others' positions.
Oh, looks like Lovely Asteriod is taking the lead.
Hopeful Stakes Hanshin-Turf-Clockwise-2000m-Sunny-Good Track
Get 'em, Pokke-san!!!
Perry Steam is currently in the first position.
Right behind her is Jungle Pocket.
Maybe she's trying to mark down the favorite?
It's a good move from her.
I'll preserve my power here, and blow out everything in the end.
I'll show them my ultimate last spurt!
This seems like a good pacing, Pokke is also very cool-headed today.
It's all thanks to Nabe-san's training.
So this is what G1 race is like.
Indeed, everyone is at high level and they all give off intense pressure.
Even so, I'm still the strongest!
Lovely Asteroid maintains a lead of one length as they pass 800 meters.
Entering the third corner, Lovely Asteroid is in the lead.
However, the following Uma Musume are also picking up the pace.
Perry Steam is starting to move.
Let's do this!
I'll break through and...
Alright, perfect!
I can do this!
Unbelievable, Agnes Tachyon came from the outside!
Agnes Tachyon is in the lead!
Agnes Tachyon rose up from the middle and is now taking the lead!
Ugh, it's that girl!
Don't lose, Pokke!
You can do this!
Do your best!
The following Uma Musume are catching up, but...!
What a powerful run! Agnes Tachyon is in the lead!
Jungle Pocket is chasing in and overtakes Perry Steam, but...
Agnes Tachyon is still leading!
Jungle Pocket is in second place!
Shit!
Agnes Tachyon leads by a great length and....
Finish!
Look at her record!
An incredible 2 minutes 0.8 seconds!
That's easily above junior level!
Overwhelming win for Agnes Tachyon!
Although they lost, both Jungle Pocket and Perry Steam also exceeded previous record!
This makes me very excited for next year's Classic races!
Fight!
Carrot!
There's nothing wrong with your performance.
You gave it your all, but Tachyon is simply that far above.
I didn't know there's an Uma Musume like that.
Looking at how easy it is for her...
It's possible she didn't even give it her all.
She's definitely not your average Uma Musume.
It seems Tachyon will steal the spotlight in next year's Classic races.
Why are you always praising her!?
You're supposed to be my trainer, Nabe-san!
No need to be upset, Pokke.
I believe taking a lesson from this loss will be the key going forward.
But you never lost, didn't you, Fuji-san?
I wanted to follow your footsteps...
Look, Arima Kinen has started.
Oh, that's right.
Arima Kinen.
The race where the strongest gather!
Well, yeah, the participants are based on fan votes after all.
TM Opera O is definitely the highlight of this year's Arima Kinen!
After taking first place in last month's Japan Cup, her progress is unstoppable!
You're gonna hurt your eyes that way.
Just leave her, as if she'll listen.
If she wins here, this will be her 8th consecutive victories.
An incredible record will be set!
Other Uma Musume must be eager to prevent that as much as possible.
We can expect strong development from here.
Hiya Cafe! I've been waiting for you!
As usual you're still running around with that poor and unhealthy body.
Don't you think it's time you start caring about it?
That's why I prepared an invigorating and nutritious energy drink just for you!
Using Chinese Medicine as a basis, and applying Ayurveda theory into it,
I managed to turn Pa into Pi then Po to Pe-
Don't want it.
Huh, okay.
How about running together in Arima Kinen?
After looking up your pulse and adrenaline while watching it-
No.
How cold! Can't you warm up a little?
Well... yes....
I think I feel a little better today.
I'll work hard.
Ah, is that the imaginary friend?
Hahahaha!
You and everyone else love to run recklessly.
I wonder just what is it that drives you all together?
I just...
...wanted to reach "her".
It must be instinct.
We Uma Musume just can't help but run.
Pursuing something that lies ahead with passion and attachment.
To reach beyond the possibilities inside every Uma Musume...
Before the third corner, TM Opera O is moving from the third place from the back to the fourth place
While Ryu Ga Saki is trying to make a move while passing the 800 meter mark.
What's that? She can't do anything with everyone surrounding her.
TM Opera O is the absolute emperor, being a target is her fate.
Everyone has the same desire to win.
Especially the Arima Kinen, which is a race to to pay back the support you receieved from everyone all year long.
This is a race you can't lose.
Now we are approaching the fourth corner.
From the outside Narita Top Road is already coming up with Mutsu Kadou!
What will TM Opera O do? There's only 310 meters left!
From the outside, Mutsu Kadou and Narita Top Road is charging in!
From the inside, Lexy America is trying to get in!
200 meters left!
Will TM come forward!? Will she!?
Where is TM!? Is she coming!? Is she coming!!?
TM is coming!
Will she succeed!? TM vs Meishou!
TM! TM! TM! TM! TM!
Is it TM!? Just a little bit! TM!
It was an incredibly tough race, but TM Opera O won by an inch!
The pride of the Conqueror, her strength-
She proved that to all of the Uma Musume here!
Undefeated all year long!
She completely dominated eight G1 races!
The Conqueror's legend will surely be forever etched in the history of Uma Musume!
She actually did it.
Impossible, she actually overtake from that distance and succeeded at the last second.
She's amazing.
There's a lot of crazy bunch out there, like Tachyon and Opera O!
This isn't the time to laze around.
Let's do this, Nabe-san.
I can't just sit here like this, with so many strong ones around.
I can't keep losing forever!
It's time for training!
You forgot your jersey!
Pokke-chan!
They said the cafe in front of the station has a really delicious carrot occhahoi, so...
Wanna come with us after training?
Erm, you think we're eating too much?
Sorry Dantsu, not today.
I'm going to shove it up to Tachyon today.
W-What does that mean?
I'm going to declare war on her.
She's strong.
I wanna beat every strong guys out there.
Aren't you a bit too obsessive?
That's crazy.
That's just how she is.
I'll be going.
See you tomorrow.
W-Wait a minute.
Take care.
Good luck with that meathead~
Now, what should I do?
So far, it's only half as expected.
I can say it's progressing smoothly.
However, pushing forward with only Plan A is quite risky.
For the necessary-
Is Tachyon here?
Is it really okay to proceed without an alternative plan?
I guess I should move to Plan B as a change of pace.
Who would've guessed the undefeated Uma Musume Lady Tachyon who never showed up to practice...
...is actually hiding in a cramped space like this?
Cafe, you have a guest.
H-Hello...
I think they're here for you.
I'm currently very busy.
Hey, Tachyon.
Don't get cocky just because you beat me once.
Oh, it's you.
Jungle Pocket-kun who lost to me at the end of last year.
Whaaat?
You want a fight, huh!? Here, I'll give it to you!
Back then, you also suddenly got all clingy while saying nonsensical crap!
Besides, you completely forgot about me after all that, huh!?
We're in the same class dumbass!
I saw you do all sorts of crap just the other day!
You listening to me!?
Look at me here, hey!
If you have a business with me, please make it quick.
I already told you, I'm busy.
I'll defeat you one day.
As the first big step to be the strongest.
You're strong.
But I'm stronger.
I'll never lose like that again.
I challenge you, Tachyon.
Let's see who's stronger, you or me.
We'll settle this in the Classics.
Heheheh...
Hahaha...
Hahahaha!
I was wondering what you suddenly showed up for.
Win against me?
You?
I see, that's how it is.
What's so funny?
I'm serious here!
That challenge of yours...
I gracefully accept.
The more observation and test subjects, the better, after all.
I'm looking forward to it.
Do your best to catch up.
What you just said right there,
I give back to you.
Alright!
Time for training!
Time for experiment!
Quick, just run a lap or whatever.
Start running already.
Aren't you going to run too?
I'm fine just observing from the back.
I'd rather have your data than wear out my legs.
I don't get you at all!
Whatever, then.
Let's just do it ourselves, Dantsu, Cafe.
You don't have to bring us here.
Hmm, nice timing!
Top Road!
Come here!
Help me out for a bit!
Show me your spirit!
Brush up that final spurt of yours!
Top Road, remember what happened at Arima Kinen!
Find the good ground in the track!
Got it!
Please forgive our kid.
Someone with longer career like Top Road probably won't learn anything from her.
Ah, no, there's definitely a lot to be learned.
She's your disciple after all.
This much acceleration power in her first year?
As her senior in Twinkle Series, I simply can't lose!
Great, I'm pumped up!
Fighting strong people really brings the best out of me!
Pokke-chan is holding out against that Top Road-chan...
That's amazing.
I can keep going, Top Road!
Me too!
That's not even my final form!
I won't lose!
The changes in running that arise from competing with others.
Interesting.
Yes, my journey to become the strongest has just started!
Jungle Pocket finished in first place!
She won the Kyodo Tsuushin Hai with a magnificent run in the final straight!
Amazing...
I thought it was just going to be Tachyon.
But the Classics seem to be at a pretty high level this year.
Did you see that? Just wait, Tachyon.
We'll settle this in Satsuki Sho.
Nice.
Very very nice.
That run she performed in Kyodo Tsuushin Hai is truly amazing!
The experiment is likely to yield great results!
Additionally, Yayoi Sho is coming up.
It'll be my first time racing with you.
I wonder what kind of data you'll provide me.
Someone like you, who's always chasing a phantom.
Looking forward to it~
I'll reach up to you, for sure
I won't let anyone get ahead of me.
This year's Yayoi Sho has begun.
Despite poor conditions from the sudden rain, the race is moving quickly.
Koguma Clarice is leading the race.
With Umare Nagarano in second place.
Behind them is Agnes Tachyon tailing like a glue.
Show me what you've got.
At this point, the Uma Musume has spread out significantly.
The number one favorite, Agnes Tachyon is tailing behind the two competing Uma Musume.
When will she move forward?
The possibilities behind Uma Musume's running.
We Uma Musume are creatures with many mysteries still unravelled behind us.
With leg power reaching the speed of 70 kilometers per hour.
The heart function to support such speed, and super strong muscles.
It's like we're only born to run.
I want to know.
Beyond the possibilities lying dormant in our legs.
What is the maximum speed that can be reached by this body?
What lies beyond all that?
Will Agnes Tachyon make her move here?
This race is an experiment to further my research.
To reach beyond the limits.
I'll temper my legs, and attain it myself!
Agnes Tachyon has entered the first position!
Her speed increased as t hey entered the straight course!
She's moving away from everyone else!
Hey, that Tachyon completely overwhelmed them.
Isn't she basically the strongest!?
Tachyon is amazing...
Incredible.
How far can I go?
What lies ahead?
What goes beyond our possibilites, and the scenery even beyond that?
Agnes Tachyon!
Another easy win for Agnes Tachyon!
Yayoi Sho Nakayama-Turf-Clockwise-2000m-Cloudy-Bad Track
She showed us overwhelming victory without any mercy to her rivals!
You're amazing, Tachyon!
This is definitely Tachyon's year!
You must get the Triple Crown!
Looks like the Triple Crown is completely within range!
There are many expectations as we're closing into Satsuki Sho next month!
There's no point in defeating weak opponents, right?
Tachyon!?
Or...
Maybe they'll be the ones after all.
I'm fine with that.
W-Wait a minute, Pokke-san!
Sorry, but I'm going ahead!
Amazing, has she gotten faster lately?
With that speed, she might be able to defeat Tachyon!
I'm getting pumped up just thinking about it.
Tachyon really runs like a monster.
I can't get enough if it!
How is Pokke lately?
Oh, thank you.
Pretty good I'd say.
While her running is a bit unrefined,
Her spurt is one of a kind.
Having a strong rival like Tachyon might be a blessing after all.
Her stubborness paired with a powerful rival really brings the most out of her fighting spirit.
If she keeps that competitiveness for Satsuki Sho and beyond, then maybe...
You know, when you first brought her along, I thought I was too old for this.
Training a newcomer after being away from the field for years have never crossed my thought.
I'm sorry, but to me...
No trainer is better than Nabe-san, after all.
Haha, don't say that.
In the end, you...
Pokke-chan is amazing!
Her training made no logical sense, but I guess she's a different breed from us.
Making a new record is an incredible achievement, isn't it?
She also made a showing in Kyodo Tsuushin Hai.
She's... amazing.
Phew, I ran like crazy again today.
Seems like your condition has improved.
I can't lose against Tachyon, after all.
I'll definitely win Satsuki Sho and become the strongest.
I'm looking forward to it.
I'm being selfish here, but...
I hope Pokke can take Nabe-san to Nippon Derby.
I couldn't do it after all.
The Derby has a lot of dreams in it after all.
Both for Uma Musume...
...and their trainers as well.
Winning at the Derby is the best honor for us.
Right after Yayoi Sho, I couldn't get back to racing after all.
He had a lot of expectations in me.
But I...
...couldn't make Nabe-san a Derby Trainer.
But you definitely....
Pokke.
Will you make our dreams come true?
Leave it to me.
I will definitely become the strongest...
...and I'll make your dreams come true!
So, I challenge you again, Tachyon.
This time, I will win.
Not just today, but the Derby, Kikuka Sho, and every race after that.
Because I am the strongest.
Tachyon.
It's a hypothetical particle that moves faster than light.
Let's go!
Even though it's only hypothetical, I say it's still worth demonstrating.
I'll show you twilight born from madness.
Satsuki Sho Nakayama-Turf-Clockwise-2000m-Sunny-Good Track
This season has come again.
The once-in-a-lifetime challenge of young Uma Musume.
The Triple Crown that begins with this Satsuki Sho!
How about it, Analyst Yamamoto-san?
I guess this year's highlight is definitely...
Yes.
This season cannot be discussed without Agnes Tachyon.
Three consecutive wins since debut.
She showed overwhelming power in all three races.
Definitely the clear favorite today.
I'm sorry about what happened in spring.
Yes, it hasn't healed for a while.
I'll be sure to be back by autumn.
Then again, you seem to be more accustomed to long distance.
It might be better to focus on Kikuka Sho instead.
The Classic Triple Crown will surely go to Tachyon this year!
Even in the races so far, she doesn't seem like she's giving it her all yet.
I wonder how far will she go?
Other girls in her generation sure have the worst luck to race against her.
Tachyon, Tachyon.
Everyone can't stop talking about her!
It doesn't matter!
Pokke-san will definitely get her revenge!
It's starting!
If you're not fast, you can't fight.
If you're not strong, you can't overcome.
And if you don't respond to this great cheer,
you don't deserve to win!
Will the Uma Musume who can fulfill the hero requirement show up in front of us!?
Alright, watch me, all of you!
I'll blow past everyone and be the strongest!
Pokke...
She's always too energetic....
This is the beginning of a legend.
Don't take your eyes off!
Satsuki Sho
The gates have opened.
Oh, look at Jungle Pocket in the innermost side!
Is there a mistake at the beginning?
She started late from the rear.
Inner side start was always prone to get blocks, so a delay like this will have a major impact on her.
She's a bit too hasty.
Her spirit backfired on her.
A stage this big probably prompted her to make a start as early as possible.
In the front, Dowser is taking the pace with two lengths lead.
Following closely are Utage Record,
Light Grace, and Karakatsugai in battle for third position.
Behind them is Agnes Tachyon who is looking ahead.
About six lengths to the leader.
And then Dantsu Flame, with Jungle Pocket on the outside.
-Due to the late start, she's stuck in this position.
-Shit!
In a 2000m race, that kind of delay hurts, but...
Don't rush, with your legs this is nothing!
Passing the 1000 meters after the start, under 60 seconds at 59.8.
The race is moving quite fast, so the stamina consumption of the front runners is a concern.
This girls in front looked tough, but you'r even more than that.
Right, Tachyon!?
Tachyon!
Agnes Tachyon is moving slowly but surely.
-Jungle Pocket is starting to make a move from the outside!
-Like I'd let you go alone!
Jungle Pocket is gradually closing the gap!
To think she'd be able to recover from that late start.
We can really feel the willpower from her run, incredible.
Passing the 600-meter marker, they're entering the curve of the third corner.
-Cool!
-This is it, Pokke! Let Tachyon eat dust!
In the 3rd and 4th corners, they're getting into from the curve and lining up.
And then Utage Record comes quickly from the outside to compete for the lead!
But Agnes Tachyon is following up to that!
-Additionally, Jungle Pocket is starting her big leap too.
-Tachyon!
Will we finally see Jungle and Tachyon head to head here?
Finally they're reaching into the straight course!
They're bringing the fight to the final straight!
It's only 300 meters, but with Pokke's last spurt...
Agnes Tachyon is taking the lead from outside!
Jungle Pocket is coming!
Dantsu Flame is also entering the fray!
200 meters left!
Which Uma Musume will finally take the crown of Satsuki Sho!?
Pokke!
Behold.
My running form.
Burn...
...under the twilight's radiance.
Then, within the burnt corpses...
...will new possibilities....
...emerge!
Agnes is in the lead as they approached the final slope!
Agnes is in the lead!
Shit!
Jungle Pocket refused to give in!
Dantsu Flame is holding up as well!
However, Agnes Tachyon have completely left them behind!
Is this it!?
Agnes Tachyon's show of overwhelming talent is unstoppable!
Incredible!
It's gotta be Tachyon!
Tachyon is definitely the strongest!
I have to beat her!
I'm going to be the strongest!
I have to!
I must!
-It's Agnes!
-Damn it!
-Tachyon!
-Agnes! She did it!
Number 1! Preceeded by her reputation!
In this Nakayama 2000m course...
...Tachyon has paved her first road!
Her time is 2 minutes 0.3 seconds
Agnes Tachyon has obtained her first crown!
...resting.
Interesting!
Tachyon!
I lost.
You're strong.
Out of this world, even.
But....
...there's still the Derby.
I'll crush you in Nippon Derby.
In the stage where every Uma Musume's dreams gather.
I'll be the winner.
I'll prove it to you.
That I'm really the strongest.
This is fine.
It happens.
Tachyon...
This is just process of elimination.
Tell us your reason!
It can't be a major injury, right!?
Well, I have a lot of reasons.
Truths are complex, you know?
Is this an effective declaration of retirement?
Hmm, there's no point to that question I'm afraid.
Nobody knows what the future will hold, so...
Anyway, as previously stated...
...as of today, I, Agnes Tachyon...
...will take an indefinite hiatus from entering races.
Announcement over.
Wait, I still have some questions, Tachyon-san!
Tachyon!
Do you have a business with me?
I'm about pour some tea.
Want some?
Comes with a little side effect, but...
This excellent tea will forcefully activate your Orexin and keep you awake!
Tachyon-chan, we're not here for tea!
It doesn't look like an immobilizing injury.
You should be able to make a comeback.
I already told you in the press conference, but I have no intention to race again.
I've concluded there's no reason for me to continue racing.
Time is limited after all.
lies, uma musume lives for 100000000 years
No need to waste time on pointless activities.
Pointless, you say?
Your jokes aren't funny.
Our battles have just started!
There's the Derby, Kikuka Sho, and many more in the future!
I want to focus on more beneficial experiments, you see.
But you and me...
Well then, is that all?
I don't mind, but shouldn't you be at practice now?
Stop fooling around!
Just so you know, I'm taking this seriously.
I mean, I'm not interested in winning in the first place.
You told me!
-That you'd take on my challenge!
-Pokke-chan!
Are you not racing to win!?
Why are you even here!?
I won't let you run away from me!
We still haven't decided who's stronger between you and me!
That was already made clear in Satsuki Sho.
What do you think when you see my run that day?
It's Agnes!
I can't catch up!
Pokke-chan!
I'm genuinely looking forward to your future accomplishments.
I hope you'll continue to improve those legs and seek even higher possibilities.
If needed be, you can always rely on my knowledge and technology.
I'll be your advisor if you want!
I don't understand.
Despite your running ability...
Even though you're so talented...!
Just watch, we'll keep running even without you!
During Yayoi Sho...
...I saw you almost caught up with "her"
Is that so? I don't see anything at all.
I will reach with her.
Definitely.
Yeah.
You guys will be fine.
Office Workers
Entire island in uproar! Tachyon's indefinite hiatus!
The news shocked me!
I was cheering for her!
High Schoolers
Tachyon-san!
Students at Tracen Academy
I can't believe it either... Why?
Pre-Nippon Derby Special Programme
Alright!
It's the Derby!
Finally we're one week away from an honorable battle,
not just to Uma Musume, but everyone in Japan;
Nippon Derby!
Above all, Tachyon's indefinite hiatus is most unfortunate.
True, we can see how it affects concerned parties especially.
She'll definitely come out as favorite if she applied for the Derby.
I still wanted to see her run...
In honor of her absence,
I hope the participating Uma Musume will deliver a passionate performance.
Training isn't an activity where you physically exert yourself as long as possible!
Physical function in Classic level Uma Musume is still gradually developing.
If you're not careful-
Shut up.
Pokke!
Shut up!
Pokke-san...
She got scolded...
To be fair, she lost to Tachyon and now said rival just disappeared...
I don't know what to do in her shoes either!
Also, media just can't stop talking about Tachyon,
as if Pokke-san and other Uma Musume don't matter!
I'm frustrated!
That's Pokke's catchphrase.
That's enough for today.
You should've hit your limit already.
I don't know what Tachyon said to you.
But for an Uma Musume with her talent to quit after four races,
something must've happened.
What do you mean?
Injury to Uma Musume is like ant to candy.
Even though we tried to be as careful as possible, and there was no sign whatsoever...
...even though she's always in top physical form, it can show up out of nowhere.
Nobody wants to be injured, nobody willingly inflicts themselves.
But once you have it, there's nothing else you can do except face your destiny in your own way.
I stepped down from racing when I failed Fuji Kiseki.
Even though I should work even harder in her place.
But you're different, right?
With Tachyon gone, you lost your rival, your friend to compete together.
But you're still looking forward to run, don't you?
I'm grateful to you.
Thank you, Pokke.
You gave this old bone a chance to dream again.
But please don't force yourself.
Don't let me experience that nightmare again.
Sorry, Nabe-san.
I know you can grow to be the strongest Uma Musume.
Derby Uma Musume specifically.
Yeah.
When racing against Tachyon, what did you see in her running?
Uma Musume's run can't lie.
You must've a lot in your mind, but...
...everything is definitely revealed in your running.
Perhaps the only one to be able to respond to that, is another Uma Musume.
Alright, let's go home.
With how serious Tachyon's indefinite hiatus announcement was.
we can only wonder what the Uma Musume left behind are thinking.
With the intent of winning today's Derby,
Eighteen Uma Musume have gathered here.
Dantsu...
Still, I wanna see Tachyon race in the Derby.
Why did she even retire?
Can't believe the strongest participant pulled out mid season.
Derby without a main character, huh?
Everyone just keeps talking nonsense!
I'm worried about Pokke.
Is she really okay?
Listen, Tanabe.
Derby is...
...a special race.
It's a once in a lifetime opportunity for Uma Musume.
For us trainers, it's not something you can face with half assed effort.
If you managed to win at the Derby, it'll be...
I still wish I could make you win at the Derby.
Pokke will run for you to.
I believed in her too,.
Pokke will bring you joy in my place.
Despite not running, you still come to watch, huh?
I have to witness just how much they've changed after running with me.
Of course, I'm also looking forward to your comeback!
Your fighting spirit, the instinct that drives every Uma Musume.
I wonder just how much it changed you?
Please bare everything to me!
You're weird.
If it's you guys...
I'm sure you can reach the unknown possibilites in my place.
Phew, gave me so much chills I can't stand it!
"I don't care about winning"
That's what Tachyon said, but...
I want to win.
If I'm going to out to race, then I have to win.
I will win in that stage.
I definitely won't lose today.
In this unfortunately cloudy weather,
Eighteen Uma Musume are walking towards their own gate above this heavy track.
With one of their rival stepping down from the field.
Who will prove themselves to be the strongest of their generation?
Entrance complete.
With every Uma Musume's dream riding on it,
Tokyo Yuushun,
Nippon Derby!
Show me, just how close you are to that place!
The race has started!
Nippon Derby Tokyo-Turf-Counter Clockwise-2400m-Cloudy-Heavy Track
Which Uma Musume will fight for the lead?
From inner side...
Kobushi no Route and Himedy is coming from inside.
While Minami Pitcher is coming from outside.
Wow, Minami Pitcher is getting into the first position!
She's giving it her all.
Will she be able to maintain this safety lead?
Don't rush, Pokke!
For now, Minami Pitcher is leading with great escape strategy.
Minami Pitcher keeps widening the gap.
Behind her, Kobushi no Route is in the second position.
Limery, and Uchidawara Iro are the two Uma Musume behind.
Perry Steam and Jungle Pocket are right in the middle.
Perry Steam is proceeding behind Jungle Pocket as she's lining up with her back.
Dantsu Flame is steadily running in front of them,
Now, all eighteen have reached the other side.
I definitely don't posses amazing talent Like Pokke-chan and Tachyon-chan,
My body shape and form aren't as good either.
I don't have any gamechanging speciality either.
But I still desire to win.
I want to win!
The leading Uma Musume has a 10 lengths lead.
Will Minami Pitcher be able to hold this much gap?
Perry Steam has started making her move!
Perry Steam is pushing forward, entering the fourth corner!
Dantsu Flame and Jungle Pocket are still in the rear.
Only 600m left!
Pokke!
-We're finally moving from the fourth corner into the straight course!
-So fast!
-After holding out this long, will Miname Pitcher finally give out!?
Limery is accekerating forward!
Limery is moving forward, Perry Steam is taking the center track and going at it!
She's strong!
Will Perry Steam be able to take this year's Derby!?
-Pokke-san...
-Pokke...
Pokke...
I don't know what's in your mind when spouting all that nonsense,
But...
Your run back in Satsuki Sho...
You don't care if your legs broke.
You don't think about the consequences.
You devoted everything to surpass you and your limit.
Obstacles existed to be overcame, after all.
That's why I'll surpass the obstacles in front of me..
I'll win!
I'll surpass it!
I'll win!
I'll surpass it!
I'll win!
I'll surpass it!
I'll win!
Good, that's it.
I'll surpass everything!
Even you!
I'll surpass your limit!
I'll surpass my own limit!
Because I...
...am...
...the strongest!
Jungle Pocket! Jungle Pocket is coming up!
Jungle Pocket is coming!
Dantsu Flame accelerating from the back!
I won't lose too!
Dantsu Flame is catching up to Jungle Pocket!
Perry Steam can't keep up!
I'll win!
Jungle Pocket, Dantsu Flame, and Uchigawa Nobara is ramping up speed from the inside!
Even I want to win!
Come, I accept your challenge, Dantsu!
The winner...
The number one...
The strongest...
...is me!!!
Jungle Pocket! Dantsu Flame!
Go, Pokke!
But Jungle is leading!
Jungle, it's Jungle! Jungle Pocket!
Dantsu Flame, Dantsu Flame in second place!
Umare Nagara is breaking through from behind!
The winner...
...is me!!!
But Jungle Pocket is still leading!
The gap widens from one length to two lengths!
Jungle Pocket is first!
Nabe-san.
Yeah.
She did it.
Jungle Pocket finished first!
Behind her is Dantsu Flame.
Despite Dantsu Flame's persistence, she kept holding out in front.
The one who opens the gate for the beginning of a new era is Jungle Pocket
Pokke!
You did great.
Congratulations, Pokke-chan.
Incredible!
Her competitive speirit, her fighting sense,
she went above expectations in every category!
At this rate, she'll be able to replace me completely!
Replace...
...me?
Oh, is this Jungle Pocket's cries of victory?
Well, this is her first G1 win, not to mention it's THE Derby.
She must have a lot to say.
Pokke... She won!
Yes, isn't she great?
She's amazing, truly...
Congratulations, Pokke.
She's still screaming!
This is a happy occasion, let her be!
Keep going, Pokke!
Wait up!
Yes, that one!
I'm going to swim lots today!
I won't lose!
Rice will give her best too!
I want to eat already.
There, stop there.
Don't forget to warm up before swimming!
Yes!
Looks like your body's healed up already.
Yes, I plan to return to training by autumn.
We'll face each other in Kikuka Sho.
I see.
I'll catch up, for sure.
Not just both of you, but also Tachyon-san from that day.
And "her" too.
Now that Cafe-chan is here,
this'll be a fun summer camp for sure!
Let's work hard together!
Of course!
You three over there, the training have started, you know!
Got it!
Ah, crap, it hurts!
Sorry, can I get another serving of rice please?
Whaaat!?
There should be one cooker left!
It's empty...
Whaaaat!?
There's nothing left.
Whaaaaaaat!?
The matress is dried well.
For a lodging of this level, it's fluffy enough.
But with more fabric softener, they could've-
Let's just sleep,
Pokke-chan was so strong back in the Derby.
I'm sure she'll grow even stronger in the future.
I don't think I'll ever get there.
I will.
Definitely.
I'll work hard to make up for my late entry.
I have to be stronger.
I have to be faster.
If not, no matter how much time passed. I'll never catch up to them.
You're right.
I have to work harder.
I must get there.
Where's the cotton candy? Shouldn't we buy them now?
Okay.
Unfortunately, Nabe-san has to work with other trainers.
Well, you've been spending a lot of time doing interviews.
After that, it's endless training during summer camp.
Try to relax today.
Okay.
You were great in the Derby.
You made Nabe-san cry like a baby.
Even I...
...feel like wanting to run again.
Maybe I should return to racing?
Kidding.
My time has passed after all.
That's really not funny.
Sorry.
But I'm not lying.
This must be our primal instinct.
Whenever a great runner catches our eyes, we can never sit still.
"I want to win, with my own legs"
What about you?
Me?
As an Uma Musume, what did you see?
Back in Satsuki Sho, running against Tachyon?
Tachyon was amazing back then.
As if declaring to other Uma Musume;
"Can you win against me? Can you follow me?"
She's challenging us.
Honestly, it scared me.
The vision of that day still remains in my head.
Well, her running was that good.
A momentary brilliance that will be forever part of our history.
I'll probably remember it forever.
After all...
I can never race and try to beat her ever again.
But you're strong.
Even Tachyon shouldn't weigh you down anymore.
I can vouch for that.
After all, you showed me a great run in the Derby.
I wonder about that...
You've already proved that you're the strongest, haven't you?
I did win the Derby.
But...
It doesn't feel real to you?
I guess so...
I'm sure you'll be fine.
Pokke!
I still haven't properly thanked you.
For being a Derby Uma Musume...
...and for realizing Nabe-san's dream...
Thank you!
Thank you, for showing me an eye-opening race.
Jungle Pocket and Dantsu Flame from the inner-
But Jungle Pocket is leading!
Jungle Pocket! Dantsu Flame!
But Jungle is leading!
Jungle Pocket is leading!
Despite Dantsu's flame persistence, she kept resisting in front!
The one who opened the gate to the beginning of a new era is Jungle Pocket!
You'll never get there.
Not with your power.
Now matter how you try.
No matter how hard you train.
She'll always be in front of you.
Showing off her crazy and insane running.
You've already realized it, haven't you?
You can't win.
Not against Tachyon.
Never.
You'll never...
...be the strongest.
Classic Triple Crown, Kikuka Sho is finally nearing its conclusion.
The race have entered the final straight.
Only 100 meters left.
The lead still hasn't changed, it's War Monarch!
She's running!
From the outside is Aurora Bubble, and behind her, Jungle Pocket!
Jungle Pocket coming hot from the outside!
Finally, Manhattan Cafe, it's Manhattan Cafe!
Manhattan Cafe is quickly closing the gap ahead!
Jungle Pocket is accelerating, but Manhattan and War Monarch is still going at it.
Manhattan, Manhattan Cafe! She's close!
Finish!
Shocking development, Manhattan Cafe!
Manhattan Cafe is running passionately!
Have you finally reached "her"?
Derby Uma Musume Jungle Pocket, and Dantsu Flame has been completely left in the dust!
Jungle Pocket is accelerating!
But Manhattan Cafe and War Monarch is still going at it!
I'll show you...
She's close! Finish!
...who trampled my world and disappear just as quickly...
...beyond the possibilies which you can never reach.
I will reach that place.
Definitely.
I wanted to support Opera O this year.
She finished first in Kyoto Daishoten too.
She held the highest number of G1 wins, after all.
Thanks for today.
Careful on your way home.
Wait, Pokke.
Let's go home together.
Let's stop by the game center!
Again?
How about parfait?
The one in that family restaurant!
Fine.
So hungry!
Hey, that's crazy!
Sorry, I have to go now.
Sure.
I thought you went to eat?
Fuji-san...
Careful, it's hot.
Also, here.
Looks a little botched.
I've been pretty absent minded lately.
I wonder what if Tachyon raced at the Derby.
When it comes to race, wondering about what-ifs is forbidden.
Even so, it still got in our heads, isn't it?
What if this were different?
If only I didn't break my leg.
If only I could still run.
Even though there's no guarantee I'd win just because I can race.
But I only raced four times.
The phantoms from those races,
still linger in my mind.
I thought you'd be fine.
I wonder if you're seeing the same phantom as I do.
Despite winning the Derby.
No matter what everyone said.
She's still in front of me.
She's out of reach.
I can never be the strongest.
I'm already...
But you can still run.
It's not over yet, Pokke.
You can still run.
I'll hold on to this until tomorrow.
Come by the riverside course in the morning.
Good morning, Pokke!
Fuji-san?
Sorry for calling you early in the morning.
I can't bear watching you suffer.
Let's enjoy the race, shall we?
That outfit... why?
I wasn't lying back in summer festival
Watching you run sparked my desire to run too.
Besides...
Even if my era has passed,
the only way to surpass myself is through running.
Alright, shall we start?
It's as if she's back to her prime.
Look at me, Pokke.
My legs are heavy.
My past self looked so far away.
Even so...
You're similar to me.
You lost to your phantom that lost to Tachyon.
Hurts isn't it?
Being trapped in "what-if"
As if it's better to just quit already.
But you're still running.
If you don't want to anymore, that's fine.
But if deep inside your heart, no matter how small,
if you still have the will to never give up,
then I won't give up either!
Looks like you still haven't give up, Fuji-san.
I don't know if I can ever make up for the blank period.
But I'll get over my phantom, definitely.
Ah, the smell of track.
I remember.
I'm still scared of running and losing.
But my cause for running,
my reason for running,
is still there.
The day I watched you race, and what I feel back then,
I still remembered them after all.
I'll keep running.
For your part too, to never lose against myself anymore.
Thanks for opening my eyes.
Let's run together again.
I'm going for one more lap!
I'll show you something amazing next race!
Looks like I'll have to retrain myself.
Welcome back, and thank you.
Next time, I'll bring more joy to you.
Trainer-san.
Kick the ground as hard as you can!
Yes!
Yes, just like that!
Relax your body after you're done!
Once you're all rested, let's do it once more!
Whaat!?
Everyone, assemble!
Ugh, so dirty! You can at least throw out the trash.
Oh, look who it is.
It's been a while since we last talked.
What is it today?
Hmm, how do I say it...
Won't you run with me again?
Together, in Japan Cup?
The race where strong people even from outside Japan gathers.
Not only them.
"The Conqueror of The Century," TM Opera O.
Undefeated all year long.
Foreign Uma Musume probably means nothing to her.
She's definitely the strongest in the current Twinkle Series.
To go toe-to-toe with an opponent like that, I need to run against stronger people.
I admit, you're strong.
It still scares me even now.
The way you ran at Satsuki Sho.
I'll probably never be able to reach you.
I'll probably never win.
Were you still active, it's probably pointless for me to keep running.
But I want to run.
I love to!
Be it pointless or not.
I can't stop, and I don't want to stop.
If I stop now.
I'll never be the ideal I want to be.
There won't be any possibility for me to win against you.
I'll probably keep losing and losing against myself.
Besides...
...that feeling when you get over a strong opponent with your own legs...
...when the scenery in front of you opens up...
...I can never forget that feeling.
I have no intention of running again.
I believe I already told you that.
Even without me, you still have Cafe and Dantsu-kun, right?
I guess you're right.
Sorry, I already know you'd refuse.
I'm sure you have your own reasons, right?
You can come back whenever you want.
In the end, I still wanted to beat you in a race.
See you.
Carrot!
Don't lower your speed, Uma Musume shouldn't lose to a mere bike!
Yes...
You looked better now.
Yup, I'm going to win the next one.
I won't lose either!
So I'd like to say, but I don't have much confidence...
Since I loved racing, I think I'll try to put in more effort.
Me too, I won't let anyone reach "her" before me.
Got it.
Tokyo, with the track length of 2400 meter.
Under the clear sky of late autumn,
15 Uma Musume have gathered from around the world for this G1 Japan Cup.
I, Izumoto, will be doing the live report.
While commentary will be provided by our special guest, Okubo-san.
Thank you very much.
In this race full of G1 Uma Musume such as Meishou Dotou or Narita Top Road,
everyone must be wondering if someone will be able to overthrow her,
The Conqueror of Century; TM Opera O!
O knights, and also to the young Werther who seeks to smash the gold!
Stand proud!
As you'll fall before me.
Lay down as you become part of The Conqueror's history.
After dominating the senior level G1s,
will she also able to claim consecutive victories for Japan Cup?
To date, this is the race with the highest G1 winner participant in history.
I have a lot of expectation.
Tokyo 2400m.
Same condition as Nippon Derby,
most fitting race to determine the strongest!
Agree.
Fuji-san, from now you should watch from the audience seat.
I can tie my ribbon on my own.
Next time we're talking in the track,
it'll be as opponents.
The next one to enter the gate is...
...the young challenger who has just passed Classic level;
Jungle Pocket!
This year's Derby Uma Musume, correct?
She finished in a "special number" in Kikuka Sho, but looks like there won't be a problem.
As I keep running, I finally understand.
I have expectations in her final spurt.
Through my heart and instinct, I understand.
The way to finally recognize myself as the strongest.
That is...
Gate entry complete.
Will the absolute champion completely crush her oppositions?
Will the one to dethrone the conqueror appear today?
The clash of will and power begins!
Japan Cup...
...now...
...the race has started!
Japan Cup Tokyo-Turf-Counter Clockwise-2400m-Sunny-Good Track
What a beautiful start, everyone lines up nicely.
Alright, which Uma Musume will make a move first?
Sonosaki Yochi, Come Naraku, and Americano Italy are attacking in a pattern,
Wait for me...
Mutsu Kadou is holding back Hongkong's Duha Saha, alongside TM Opera O and Lexy America.
Shine Forever aims for the middle position from the outside.
Gioraham stays in the inner side.
Meishou Dotou is around the middle,
with Jungle Pocket tailing behind her.
It seems they're trying to get a feel for each other.
Of course we've only just started, but the race is moving a bit slow today.
She's keeping calm even around that monstrous lineup.
I am...
...the winner!
Is that Bellar Dorna from the outside?
-Bellar Dorna accelerates ahead!
-Awesome...
Right behind her is Mutsu Kadou, and then Duha Saha.
-Pokke-san...
Finally, it's her, our conqueror,
TM Opera O is moving ahead!
She's a proper Uma Musume now.
I wanted to run too.
TM Opera O is now right in the middle, along with Shine Forever.
Gioraham attacking the inner side, and then Jungle Pocket.
Meishou Doto in the innermost side, behind her is Peatle.
Narita Top Road in tenth position, while Shiro Steve is in front of her.
Finally, the final straight!
Will they all rush to the front?
TM Opera O accelerates from the outside!
Meishou Dotou tried to chase from the inner side, but-
TM Opera O keeps leading!
All the popular Uma Musume have finished climbing the final slope.
But TM Opera O keeps leading!
-I won't lose!
-Jungle Pocket and Narita Top Road accelerates from the outside, but-
-Not yet!
TM Opera O kept her position!
-The Conqueror is unstoppable!
-That's it, my rivals!
-Be strong and unyielding!
-TM Opera O is running! She's running!
-Run towards the goal with your own legs!
-Will someone appear to dethrone the Conqueror!?
-For the sake of your own path of victory, and...
...to further leap me forward!
Aw, shucks...
...crazy bunch, all of them.
So scary...!
I'll probably lose.
I probably won't surpass them.
I'm so consumed by fear that...
...I can't stand it.
I can't stand it.
But-!
I'm going ahead.
Everyone starts rushing in but so is TM Opera O!
Shine Forever, so close! One more step, one more step!
Running beyond the goal line!
My heart have always been so selfish.
TM Opera O further accelerates ahead!
Don't lose, Pokke!
My way (My way)
You'll lose.
You can't win against Tachyon.
Struggling around.
I've been searching around.
Instinctively, I understand.
They can get there in my place.
For something I only have.
Embracing it (Embrace)
The realm which I never managed to reach.
Running towards the fragments.
And yet,
after all this time...!
Ah, acknowledging own weakness is the start line.
Hahaha!
Right, who cares? It's pointless!
Others' victory or achivement means nothing for me!
Come on, come on, come on.
I have to get there with my own legs!
Reach through the guiding light with your own hands.
See it with my own eyes!
Inside this dazzling light,
TM Opera O!
-However, Jungle Pocket leaped from the rear and has closed the gap against Opera O!
I've found a new rainbow.
-Bravo!
I should be able shine more and more.
Go with me!
At the end of the dazzling light.
Derby Uma Musume Jungle Pocket is catching up to The Conqueror!
I've found a neverending path.
The frontline has completely turned into their own battleifield!
This battle of will truly belongs to the strongest Uma Musume!
Beyond the finale, beyond the ending credits.
TM Opera O!
Let's go meet everyone.
Jungle Pocket!
Which one will be the winner!?
Jungle Pocket!
Jungle Pocket wins!
Not only foreign and other senior competitors,
but she also beat the Conquerors of Century!
She's literally the strongest!
Uma Musume has started getting into the entry gate.
The highlight for today are the four Uma Musume
who opened the gate to the beginning of this new era.
To have everyone participate in the same race is-
So you all came.
That's cool.
I'm getting pumped up.
To be able to run with guys like you!
I'm going to win this.
I won't lose.
Not on my watch,
Come, let's run!
I'll keep running, no matter how many times it takes!
To finally be the strongest!
Surely you've realized from the beginning.
Take a breath, slowly and deeply.
Let's show the shadow we stepped into,
the power to move forward.
Even painful thoughts coming out from me,
Will shine bright, guiding me as I got into the turf track.
Shout out, louder!
Into the seven colored prism.
It's so dazzling, but I'm not afraid anymore.
Running while engulfed in light.
The radiance shines into tomorrow.
Beyond the seven colored prism.
Together, we can reach the world beyond imagination.
Everything changes in the blink of an eye.
No matter how many times, I'll keep running with these legs.
Forever!
Everyone!
Thank you...
...for coming to our concert today!
We're not over yet!
Sit back and enjoy!
Let's go, next song!
umapyoi densetsu is a meme song, so i'll leave it alone... not because im lazy... honest
it's my first time subbing a movie, i kinda underestimated it to be honest
even though ive been playing uma for a long time, i know nothing about horse racing term in english so the racing part is probably complete dogshit
not to mention it's hard to tell what the announcer is saying behind all those sfx and screaming
well, someone will probably did a better sub one of these days, and im sure the bd will contain english sub... right? i mean, rttt has an official sub in youtube even.
sorry for the cringey long rant, hope you enjoy this kino bwos
