Copy !req
6. That is their destiny.
Copy !req

Copy !req
9. Even so, they continue to run,
Copy !req

toward the goal in front of them.
Copy !req
11. From the outside, Yamano Piache surges
into position with 800 meters remaining.

23. There she is.
Copy !req
24. The Umamusume beauty that
only comes around once a century...
Copy !req
25. {\an8}But it seems she's more
than just her looks.
Copy !req
26. {\an8}Well, we won't know for sure
until the race ends.
Copy !req
27. {\an8}This is the Japanese Derby after all.
Copy !req
28. {\an8}This race's homestretch pushes
a racer beyond their limits...

Copy !req
44. {\an8}Would you calm down, Jo?
Copy !req
45. Instead of watching races on your phone,
focus on the one in front of us.
Copy !req
46. Oh, c'mon...

Copy !req
49. {\an8}All right, today's racers
have entered the track.
Copy !req
50. Hold up, are those new shoes?
Copy !req
51. Yup! I hope they don't
get too dirty today.
Copy !req
52. All right, racers, say "Cheese!"
Copy !req
53. - Cheese!
- I'm gonna run so good today.
Copy !req
54. Not much we can do.
Copy !req
55. National races are on a different level
from the regionals.
Copy !req
56. That includes facilities, staff,
and even the Umamusume.
Copy !req
57. However, the regionals
still have their charms if you--
Copy !req
58. There aren't any stars here.
Copy !req
59. Pardon?
Copy !req
60. A racer people can see themselves in.
Copy !req
61. Someone you wanna cheer on
from the bottom of your heart.
Copy !req
62. A real star.

Copy !req
85. {\an8}There are troublemakers
no matter where you go.
Copy !req
86. {\an8}But that's Kasamatsu Academy for you.
Every last student has their own quirks--
Copy !req
87. - I made it.
- No, you're late.
Copy !req
88. Speaking of quirky...
Copy !req
89. - Where's your uniform?
- Hm? What's a yooni firm?
Copy !req
90. I think I see the problem here.
Copy !req
91. - Why's she wearing her jersey?
- And she's filthy.
Copy !req
92. For now, just take a seat.
Copy !req
93. You can sit next to Belno Light.
Copy !req
94. Wait, what?!
Copy !req
95. N-nice to meet you...
Copy !req
96. Why's she staring at me like that...
Copy !req
97. All right, listen up, class.
Copy !req
98. Thank goodness...
Copy !req
99. While Umamusume have a number
of career paths available to them,
Copy !req
100. Kasamatsu Tracen Academy specializes
in training racers.
Copy !req
101. Under our guidance, you will build up
your running skills
Copy !req
102. and eventually enter races.
Copy !req
103. 15 COURSES
Copy !req
104. Regional races are held
at 15 racecourses nationwide.
Copy !req
105. Of those, you students will be debuting
here, at Kasamatsu Racecourse.
Copy !req
106. Just getting right into it, huh?
Copy !req
107. Why's his map so good?!
Copy !req
108. Should you perform well,
Copy !req
109. you may even be invited to
the nearby Nagoya Racecourse.
Copy !req
110. There, you can run in the Tokai Derby,
Copy !req
111. the Tokai region's most prestigious race.
Copy !req
112. Only a handful of racers make it that far,
Copy !req
113. but if you do,
only the highest of glory awaits you.
Copy !req
114. Huh?
Copy !req
115. That's just the regionals though, right?
What about the Twinkle Series?
Copy !req
116. Ah... The national races, yes?
Copy !req
117. Well, that's not something
you need to worry about.
Copy !req
118. The racers there
are on a whole other level.
Copy !req
119. A whole other level...
Copy !req
120. Nice.
Copy !req
121. Sounds like fun.
Copy !req
122. What do you--
Copy !req
123. SNORE
Copy !req
124. She's sleeping?!
Copy !req
125. Was she just talking in her sleep?
Copy !req
126. - I'm so hungry!
- What's on the menu today?
Copy !req
127. I didn't make a single friend.
Copy !req
128. I really need to stop being such a shut-in
and put myself out there more.
Copy !req
129. She's on her own too.
Copy !req
130. Well, she didn't seem like a bad person.
Copy !req
131. And I did just say
I should put myself out there more!
Copy !req
132. H-hey there!
Copy !req
133. Can I sit here?
Copy !req
134. Thank you!
Copy !req
135. ALL ITEMS ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT!
Copy !req
136. Can you believe the cafeteria's
all-you-can-eat?
Copy !req
137. I suppose a healthy appetite is key
for growing Umamusume!
Copy !req
138. I even took two whole croquettes myse--
Copy !req
139. Chef! We're out of ingredients!
Copy !req
140. We're even out of rice!
Copy !req
141. Who's the wise guy who said
we should do all-you-can-eat?
Copy !req
142. Wait, that was me!
Copy !req
143. - Hey, check it out...
- Wow...
Copy !req
144. Is that... all for her?
Copy !req
145. - Wait, is the girl next to her...
- No way...
Copy !req
146. There goes my appetite...
Copy !req
147. Ah, h-hey, wait!
Copy !req
148. Do you want to be friends with--
Copy !req
149. Seconds, please.
Copy !req
150. CLOSED
Copy !req
151. But why...
Copy !req
152. Um, if you're still hungry,
you can take mine.
Copy !req
153. Can I?!
Copy !req
154. The hell's her deal?
Copy !req
155. They're totally out of place.
Copy !req
156. Let's go, sweetie! It's getting dark!
Copy !req
157. Coming!
Copy !req
158. Oh you. Look at your clothes...
Copy !req
159. A bunch of grass got on me!
Copy !req
160. Hey, Mama, can I go down the slide
one more time?
Copy !req
161. - Okay, just once.
- Yay!

Copy !req
165. - The hell were you doin' out so--
- My time was slower today.
Copy !req
166. Did I mess up my pace? I better fix it...
Copy !req
167. IGNORED
Copy !req
168. - Ah, good eve--
- Hey, you! Don't ignore me!
Copy !req
169. When I talk to you, you reply, got that?!
Copy !req
170. The hell's your problem?!
Copy !req
171. What's going on?!
Copy !req
172. Hey, cut that out!
Copy !req
173. - Shut up, runt.
- We're the same height!
Copy !req
174. So Dust Bunny,
Copy !req
175. looks like you're my roommate.
Copy !req
176. Thing is, I've just got so much luggage
Copy !req
177. and it takes up so much space.
Copy !req
178. Which means there's nowhere
for you to sleep.
Copy !req
179. STOREROOM
Copy !req
180. So sorry about this,
Copy !req
181. but you think you could sleep here
tonight, little Dust Bunny?
Copy !req
182. The storeroom?!
Just what are you trying to--
Copy !req
183. I'm not sure why you're upset,
but fighting's bad.
Copy !req
184. Let's all get along!
Copy !req
185. And roger that on the room.
Good luck unpacking.
Copy !req
186. See ya.
Copy !req
187. - The hell's her deal?
- Maybe she's just stupid?
Copy !req
188. How boring.
Copy !req
189. STOREROOM
Copy !req
190. A whole room to myself!
Copy !req
191. My very own room!
Copy !req
192. With fluffy blankets! And pillows!
Copy !req
193. I even have electricity!
Copy !req
194. Amazing... Luxury as far as the eye can see!
Copy !req
195. Am I in heaven?!
Copy !req
196. {\an8}VISION MAY DIFFER FROM REALITY
Copy !req
197. {\an8}The food's extra tasty
and it's all-you-can-eat!
Copy !req
198. {\an8}And all my new friends are so considerate!
Copy !req
199. Thank you so much for letting me attend
Kasamatsu Academy...
Copy !req
200. Mom.
Copy !req
201. TA-DA
Copy !req
202. Well?
Copy !req
203. Aren't you a cutie! It looks good on you!
Copy !req
204. But wow... I can't believe you're going
to the academy.
Copy !req
205. When you were little,
your knees were so weak...
Copy !req
206. It's all thanks to you, Mom.
Copy !req
207. You gave me all those massages
every single day.
Copy !req
208. But are you sure?
I know the academy costs a lot...
Copy !req
209. Don't you worry about that.
Copy !req
210. Compared to our grocery bills,
it was pocket change.
Copy !req
211. I'm really, truly sorry about that...
Copy !req
212. Don't be.
Copy !req
213. There's nothing wrong with a child
who likes to eat.
Copy !req
214. Eat as much as you like,
run as much as you like...
Copy !req
215. And become the Umamusume
you were meant to be.
Copy !req
216. STOREROOM
Copy !req
217. Five o'clock in the morning.
Copy !req
218. Surely our little Dust Bunny
is fast asleep.
Copy !req
219. But too bad!
Copy !req
220. She won't escape me, even in her dreams!
Copy !req
221. Now then... Ahem.
Copy !req
222. Rise and shine! Wakey, wakey, Dust Bunny!
Copy !req
223. Huh?
Copy !req
224. {\an8}Did she pack up and go home already?
Copy !req
225. TRAINING SCHEDULE
4:00 STRETCH...
Copy !req
226. We've reached the thousand-meter mark!
Copy !req
227. Just who will take home
the Tokai Derby crown?!
Copy !req
228. At last, the real race begins!
Copy !req
229. From way outside comes Kitahara Jones!
He's making his move!
Copy !req
230. Kitahara Jones speeds up! Kitahara Jones...
Copy !req
231. takes home the gold!
Copy !req
232. She saw everything...
Copy !req
233. Gray hair... Almost like ash...
Copy !req
234. Those are some flexible knees.
Copy !req
235. I didn't get much sleep.
Copy !req
236. Good morning!
Did you sleep okay last night?
Copy !req
237. Yes, like a rock!
Copy !req
238. Huh? Wait, in the storeroom?
Copy !req
239. All right, listen up!
Copy !req
240. Uh, so today, we're going to show you
how racing with gates works.
Copy !req
241. You'll be running 800 meters
on the dirt course.
Copy !req
242. You'll run on similar tracks at your debut
races, so treat this like the real deal.
Copy !req
243. You'll race in groups of four.
Copy !req
244. And remember,
Copy !req
245. the race doesn't start
until the gates open.
Copy !req
246. No crap. We're not morons.
Copy !req
247. No way, look!
Copy !req
248. Those are trainers!
Do you think they'll scout us?
Copy !req
249. Training sweats?
Copy !req
250. Wait, you don't know?
Copy !req
251. Trainers are the ones
who oversee our race training.
Copy !req
252. Once you've been scouted by a trainer
and join their team, you can enter races.
Copy !req
253. - Oh.
- She doesn't look interested.
Copy !req
254. Now then... Who am I scouting this year?
Copy !req
255. I'm thinking Fujimasa March.
Copy !req
256. Hey, wait, she's my first pick!
Copy !req
257. Wait, you guys too?! Forget it!
Copy !req
258. I had my eyes on her even before
she entered the school!
Copy !req
259. Will we finally witness a star being born?
Copy !req
260. I doubt it.
Copy !req
261. Ah, they're starting.
Copy !req
262. Look, it's March!
Copy !req
263. Right, on your mark...
Copy !req
264. Get set...
Copy !req
265. Start!
Copy !req
266. What a clean start!
Copy !req
267. Her form's sharp too!
Copy !req
268. She's got the makings of a racer,
all right!
Copy !req
269. Looks like we've found this gen's ace,
right Jo?
Copy !req
270. Huh...
Copy !req
271. She's pretty good.
Copy !req
272. Time, 50.8 seconds!
Copy !req
273. {\an8}- Fifty seconds?!
- That's it! I call dibs!
Copy !req
274. {\an8}- Come on! That's no fair!
- Amazing.
Copy !req
275. - Please consider...
- No wonder she got a scholarship.
Copy !req
276. - The kid's got talent.
- No, join my team!
Copy !req
277. Could you not interrupt the lesson?
Copy !req
278. Not that it matters.
Copy !req
279. Not like she'd join my team anyway.
Copy !req
280. Oh well. Next group.
Copy !req
281. That ashen-haired Umamusume
is a new student here?
Copy !req
282. Whoa, she really is flexible.
Copy !req
283. STRETCH
Copy !req
284. Isn't she a little too flexible?
Copy !req
285. Okay, we've got this!
Copy !req
286. NOD
Copy !req
287. Don't lose to the little Dust Bunny!
Copy !req
288. - No way that's happening!
- No way!
Copy !req
289. What are you doing now?
Copy !req
290. On your mark...
Copy !req
291. Get set...
Copy !req
292. Start!
Copy !req
293. H-hold on, what are you doing?!
Copy !req
294. - My shoelace came undone...
- Your shoelace?!
Copy !req
295. You shoulda tied your shoes
before you entered the gates!
Copy !req
296. Come on! We're running out of time!
Copy !req
297. At this rate...
Copy !req
298. we'll never catch up...
Copy !req
299. - First place is mine!
- It's mine!
Copy !req
300. Huh?!
Copy !req
301. She's fast! But more importantly...
Copy !req
302. What's with that running stance?!
Copy !req
303. How can she run leaning forward
like that?!
Copy !req
304. Is it her shoulders? Her back?
Copy !req
305. No...
Copy !req
306. it's her knees!
Copy !req
307. Their insane flexibility
allows for that insane form!
Copy !req
308. There aren't any stars here.
Copy !req
309. A racer people can see themselves in.
Copy !req
310. Someone you wanna cheer on
from the bottom of your heart.
Copy !req
311. I finally found one...
Copy !req
312. At last, a star!
Copy !req
313. Time, 51.1 seconds!
Copy !req
314. I can't believe my shoelaces came undone.
Copy !req
315. I need to be more careful.
Copy !req
316. Wh-what the hell...
Copy !req
317. What the hell even are you?!
Copy !req
318. H-hey, hey! H-h-hold on a sec!
Copy !req
319. Ouch!
Copy !req
320. - Ah, it's Kitahara Jones.
- Please forget that!
Copy !req
321. You there! What's your name?!
Copy !req
322. Oguri Cap.
Copy !req
323. "Cap".
Copy !req
324. As in "peak"...
Copy !req
325. That's a great name.
Copy !req
326. The name's Jo Kitahara!
Copy !req
327. How'd you like to take on the world
with me, Oguri Cap?!
