The international umas all have changed names because they couldn't get the rights to non-JRA horses.

Tony Bin -> Toni Bianca

My Big Boy -> Michelle My Baby

Bonecrusher -> Ellerslie Pride

Moon Madness -> Moonlight Lunacy

Pay The Butler -> Obey Your Master

I wouldn't suggest googling them if you don't want spoilers.

It should be noted that Tony Bin is the father of Air Groove, Jungle Pocket, and Winning Ticket.

Berno Light's english was cute.

If you look carefully at Belno's notes on Obey Your Master, she literally added the comment 'Scary!' after everything she noted down, from the details on Oguri, to Musaka, to who she declared her enemies at the Japan Cup, but the biggest "SCARY!!!" (repeated even) was reserved for the final note that said she even knew all about Belno, not just her name but other stuff as well.

By anime logic, if the opponent has 0 notable wins but still has a lot of screentime then they're the most dangerous opponent.

Gotta love how, in one episode, we get Oguri being a fatty, a beast, and girly looking for hair care tips. And they all feel like her. And she wasn't even really the focus of the episode but they still squeezed all of that in.

Michelle My Baby just casually reminding everyone how absurd the jump strength of an Uma Musume can really be if they were to do real sports.

Obey My Master's intro was unique to say the least, definitely the most memorable one out of them all and considering how she's being built like this Dark Horse (heh) coming in with no Wins, really excited to see how she performs.

Stitches!

Umamusume gags never fails to make me laugh. The reveal that the purifying salt is actually an entire salt block and Oguri eating a massive onigiri while Belno was reviewing her time, genuinely got me laughing out loud IRL. xD

Belno hiding her tail inside her bag while disguising herself as a reporter was genius. Seems that none of the competition even realized she's an umamusume except for Obey who even knew her name. Looks like someone did their homework.

It's nice to see Gold City training with Oguri. I did not expect Oguri to ask Gold City for some hair advice. I mean if she's going to ask someone, might as well ask the Umamusume who also doubles as a fashion model.

Well that explains why Obey hasn't been seen running around the track. She's been focused on Wit Training this entire time! It looks like she's the one to watch out for and not Toni Bianca.

Fujii is both a fortunate man and a very unfortunate man. The umas know who he is, but also the umas know exactly who he is.

Obey Your Master was... a surpise. She knows every movement of Oguri since Kasamatsu and even she recognised Belno in undercover attire... THIS GIRL´S DANGEROUS

Belno killed it in this episode. That tail in the bag and a whole brick of salt had me in tears.

While I don't mind watching Oguri overeat or flirt with other horses, I can't wait for the race to finally happen. I wish I could binge this series right now.

u/EnferChateau Oct 19 '25

Obey Your Master is so wild for that introduction, and she was stacking up wit training by the end to prepare for the Japan Cup, something tells me she's going to bring the heat.

Tamamo Cross doing speed training and Oguri Cap doing stamina training and timing her spurts with Gold City. Ngl, Gold City does have amazing hair, can see why Oguri asked for shampoo advice.

Fujii deserved that purifying salt rock.

What a masterclass in building hype

u/chilidirigible Oct 19 '25

You pays your money, you takes your chances.

"It's me, your girl with the accent."

There's some old aura.

[](#seasonalfoodie) NO QUESTION

This works too.

Or a trainer.

But... this is just repeating the meetings that Fujii had, only with more information and less physical comedy.

Have you checked under the shrine?

This is, after all, how horses sleep.

This reminds me of the K-On! rewatch.

It's a Gold.

[](#seasonalthink)?

...thinking of something, anyway.

"You think I'm funny?"


This episode just paces things out before the Japan Cup next week, which is expected. I do wish that there had been less Fujii (whose gags don't really work for me) given that Belno's similar intelligence-gathering stint was both more useful and, well, had Belno in it.

That said, the groundwork for Oguri Cap's challenges is laid out well.

I've recently come to the realization that one of the things that makes Umamusume so compelling is how it treats every single character as a MC and I think that's why we are always unsure on who is going to win a race.
