Also one thing I don’t get about peoples reaction to Uma Musume. Is that anime has had cat girls for years. Like probably for at least the last 15 years that have been people with cat ears/tails (and to a lesser amount dogs and rabbits) who tend to at least somewhat act like that animal and no one bats an eye for the most part. Its just another slightly animal person.

This game uses horses for the exact same concept and suddenly everyone is “WTF” “THIS IS TOO MUCH” and other such things. What hell is this reaction?

I kinda like the idea behind the whole horsegirl racetrack thing, Uma Musume - Pretty Derby

But its neat that the horse girls are actually doing horse related things. Its basically like track and field but super themed.I just think the part of them also being idols (unless that was just a cutsey thing for the commercial) is a bit extra.

Odds are it will be a little more eechi than I actually want it to be, but I like the idea of neko, type animal people actually doing things super related to whatever animal they have the ears and acting like them. I’d consider getting it.
