AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH SURPRISE BOX!
Horses seem pretty popular, just ask the bronies. Actually, they don't seem to like that name any more, do they?
To answer the question, I heard it had a very thorough advertising campaign due to Cygames massive gacha funds, which also implies paying streamers since that's the most popular way to reach the under 30 crowd. Gacha itself is absurdly popular, though, so it probably would have had some success either way. The big button that says FREE* lures in a lot of people.

Sounds pretty eventful, but a surefire way to normalize their presence in your life as well.

ootuubur Im subscribed to made a video of him picking up as a joke and actually getting pretty into it, he's not even into anime stuff so that was surprising.
What's even more surprising is that I actually felt oddly excited seeing his umamusume win race, it's bizarrely infectious
Watching it also made me realize I never even actually ever saw gameplay of gatcha games, its a weird comparison but it's like those classic dating VN games where you work on certain stats and those affect events and mechanics, I'm worried I might actually try out a game or two in hopes of getting some gatcha shabs I uhh, have lots of pictures of

I know you're joking (probably) but it's quite an anime franchise. There's 3 direct seasons and a couple spinoffs, a movie, and multiple different manga. Uma Musume was quite well known among dorks since it had so many ways to experience it outside of the gacha that was restricted to Japan during those 8 years.

I got no idea how this game managed to grab hold given these types of rates.

So I will probably be able to roll pretty well, then just get free stuff for the rest of the time I feel like playing it

The SoL parts seem really cute, but I can see how they would get repetitive if they repeat. The racing part is, well, just a racing minigame. Doesn't seem any different from chocobo racing in FF7 30 years ago. Well, actually in FF7 in the main racing mode you could control it and get victories you shouldn't have with inferior stats so that was cool.
The cute girl thing really is alluring, though. It's good to see cuteness succeed among typical gacha sluttery in the West, although I imagine it will be fleeting.

I like how the disclaimer says that there's no guarantee that a 1% rate card will be given after 100 pulls. I guess some people need to be told how probability works directly.

Oh ya... and cygames almost got sued in Granblu so they have to put in a mechanism that gievs you the card after spending a certain amount. This is in the game.

So you put down 200$ and you get what you were looking for no matter what. It's just the next thing that comes out as well? After that what..

The thing is that they aren't allowed to overly sexualize the horses because Horse Racing in Japan is really sacred to people, so they can't stand for that being insulted.

Oh interesting. That's called a pity system, right? It might even help their bottom line by retaining people, or maybe they would end up spending more without it. I guess it would require a study to know for sure.

 No.8666

>>8665
Yeah it might even be worth it just to roll for that one if you have the money to spend.

The thing is that you need to get the card multiple times to level it up. So that card needs to be leveled up three times to become really busted, meaning you need to get it four times.

But there's supposed to be a few events in the months which give you free level UPS so getting that one card might be worthwhile for the loyalty benefits

The gacha game came out in Japan in the middle of Uma Musume season 2.

 No.8676

So the guys above me were spreading disinformation. Uma was created by Cygames as a multimedia project. Here's info from wikipedia:

Uma Musume Pretty Derby[b] is a Japanese media franchise created by Cygames. Initially starting out as a mobile game, the project soon expanded to include an anime television series, manga, and live concerts. A mobile game for iOS and Android was scheduled to debut in late 2018, but it was delayed to a February 2021 release, with a Windows client releasing a month later. An English-language edition of the game was released worldwide in June 2025 for the aforementioned platforms.

An anime television series adaptation produced by P.A. Works aired from April to June 2018. A second season now produced by Studio Kai, with the former studio assisting in its production, aired from January to March 2021. A third season produced by both studios aired from October to December 2023.

An anime television series adaptation of the spin-off manga Umayon aired from July to September 2020. Its sequel, titled Umayuru, premiered in October 2022. A web anime produced by CygamesPictures titled Uma Musume Pretty Derby: Road to the Top aired from April to May 2023. An anime film also produced by CygamesPictures titled Uma Musume Pretty Derby: Beginning of a New Era premiered in Japan in May 2024. An anime television series adaptation of Uma Musume: Cinderella Gray produced by CygamesPictures premiered in April 2025, with a short web spinoff anime titled Umayuru: Pretty Gray premiering that same month.
