1. Well, I'm heading out.
Copy !req
2. Make sure to take care of yourself.
Copy !req
3. I hope you find glory.
Copy !req
4. I'll be waiting overseas, Kita-chan.
Copy !req
5. Kita-chan?
Copy !req
6. All over Japan...
Copy !req
7. No, let's cause a festival
wave all over the world!
Copy !req
8. Right. At the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.
Copy !req
9. Umamusume

Copy !req
11. Episode 11
Decision
Copy !req
12. Can't eat another bite...
Copy !req
13. Not another bite...
Copy !req
14. Oh, no! Dia-chan! Look how late it is!
Copy !req
15. Oh, right...
Copy !req
16. I better hurry.
Copy !req
17. Takeshi Greengrocers
Copy !req
18. There we go.
Copy !req
19. Oh, honey, take care of that.
Copy !req
20. Good morning!
Copy !req
21. Kita-chan, you're looking lively again today.
Copy !req
22. But aren't you a little late?
Copy !req
23. I know, I overslept!
Copy !req
24. We heard you're headed for the
Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe.
Copy !req
25. Eat some of those, and work hard today!
Copy !req
26. Thank you so much!
Copy !req
27. The Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe
Copy !req
28. And now, a question.
Copy !req
29. The highest any Japanese
horse girl has placed in the
Copy !req
30. The Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe
Copy !req
31. Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe is second.
Copy !req
32. The three who have done that are Nakayama
Festa, El Condor Pasa, and who else?
Copy !req
33. What exactly was that?
Copy !req
34. Kitasan Black.
Copy !req
35. I suddenly felt heavy, and my legs didn't
have their usual strength in them...
Copy !req
36. Normally, I'd be able to...
Copy !req
37. Kitasan Black? Kitasan Black!
Copy !req
38. R-Right! Tokai Teio!
Copy !req
39. Wrong. The answer is Orfevre.
Copy !req
40. This will be important,
so be sure to memorize it.
Copy !req
41. You answered Tokai Teio when
the answer was Orfevre?
Copy !req
42. Well, I was kind of spacing out.
Copy !req
43. I know Dia's gone, but you can't get too lazy!
Copy !req
44. You might be right.
Copy !req
45. You've got quite an appetite today, Cheval.
Copy !req
46. It feels like I can never eat enough.
Copy !req
47. Maybe it's a growth spurt?
Copy !req
48. I'll be waiting for you at
the Arima Kinen, Kitasan.
Copy !req
49. When you get back from the Prix de l'Arc
de Triomphe, I'll have won a G1 title.
Copy !req
50. Then we can race at Arima.
Copy !req
51. S-Sure.
Copy !req
52. I'm not gonna make it easy for you.
Copy !req
53. I've finally won a domestic G1 race.
Copy !req
54. And I'm aiming to win the Fall Tennoushou,
the Japan Cup, and the Arima Kinen.
Copy !req
55. All of them.
Copy !req
56. So, when are you flying ou,t Kitasan?
Copy !req
57. Uh, I'm still thinking about it.
Copy !req
58. Well, make sure you're in
good shape when you do.
Copy !req
59. You won't be able to win the Prix de l'Arc
de Triomphe if you run like that again.
Copy !req
60. Remember the Takarazuka Kinen?
Did you not train enough?
Copy !req
61. Yeah... that might be it.
Copy !req
62. Cheval?
Copy !req
63. I need seconds.
Copy !req
64. Wow, you're still gonna eat?
Copy !req
65. If you want, you can have this.
Copy !req
66. Oh, you're not eating much today, Kitasan.
Copy !req
67. You didn't eat your katsudon dessert.
Copy !req
68. I'm just feeling full already.
Copy !req
69. Is this because Dia's gone, too?
Copy !req
70. Maybe...
Copy !req
71. Can this emperor
surpass the last?
Copy !req
72. Tokai Teio
Copy !req
73. Good morning, Dia-chan.
Copy !req
74. Okay.
Copy !req
75. Dia-chan
I'm starting training today.
It's raining over here,
so I'll be training inside.
Copy !req
76. Dia-chan, just wait. I'll be there soon.
Copy !req
77. Bakushin, Bakushin, Bakushin!
Copy !req
78. Bakushin, Bakushin, Bakushin!
Copy !req
79. Bakushin! Bakushin!
Copy !req
80. Baku-shin-shin!
Copy !req
81. Don't walk while looking at your phone!
Copy !req
82. Sorry! I was looking at
my phone while walking.
Copy !req
83. No worries! I should've been more careful too.
Copy !req
84. I need to be on my way, though.
Copy !req
85. Oh, okay.
Copy !req
86. Okay, that was a pretty good time.
Copy !req
87. Kita-chan? Something wrong?
Copy !req
88. Sorry, I'm gonna run another one.
Copy !req
89. Huh? What is going on here?
Copy !req
90. Something... something feels...
Copy !req
91. Yep, not bad at all, Kitasan.
Copy !req
92. Well, I don't think I was able to
pull out all the stops that time.
Copy !req
93. But you were able to maintain your time.
Copy !req
94. What's wrong? Something feeling different?
Copy !req
95. I'm gonna run a bit more.
Copy !req
96. Whoa, hold on! If you feel funny,
it's better not to overdo it.
Copy !req
97. You might still be exhausted
from the Takarazuka Kinen.
Copy !req
98. Goal
Copy !req
99. You oughta head back for today and rest up.
Copy !req
100. But—
Copy !req
101. Kitasan.
Copy !req
102. I understand. I'll head on back.
Copy !req
103. That girl...
Copy !req
104. You did it! That was your best
time today at the end there.
Copy !req
105. Yes!
Copy !req
106. Here, some water.
Copy !req
107. Thank you so much!
Copy !req
108. Okay, that ought to do it for today.
Copy !req
109. Right!
Copy !req
110. Actually, I think I'm gonna do one more lap!
Copy !req
111. Your bottle!
Copy !req
112. She can still run like that, huh?
Copy !req
113. Feeling clean and happy!
Copy !req
114. About to have lunch
Copy !req
115. Have you decided when you're
coming to France?
Copy !req
116. Honestly, Dia-chan,
I'm feeling kinda weird
Copy !req
117. Yours now.
Copy !req
118. Let's see how many you can put together.
Copy !req
119. I'll let you know as soon
as I've got a date. Good night.
Copy !req
120. I'll let you know as soon as I've got a date. Good night.
Copy !req
121. I'm fine.
Copy !req
122. I'm fine. It's fine.
Copy !req
123. I'm sure it's okay.
Copy !req
124. I'll get a lot of sleep, eat my fill,
and get into proper shape.
Copy !req
125. If I practice... If I practice
a whole bunch, I'm sure—
Copy !req
126. "If I practice enough, I can go
back to being the way I used to be."
Copy !req
127. Golshi-san...
Copy !req
128. But... it ain't like that.
Copy !req
129. No matter how hard you practice.
No matter what you do.
Copy !req
130. How'd you...
Copy !req
131. Because I've been through the same thing.
Copy !req
132. At some point, I couldn't pass
anyone the way I used to.
Copy !req
133. I started having trouble
controlling my emotions.
Copy !req
134. Got bad at exiting the gate, too.
Copy !req
135. Kitasan Black...
Copy !req
136. You're past your peak.
Copy !req
137. Honestly, Dia-chan,
I'm feeling kinda weird
Copy !req
138. Honestly, Dia-chan,
I'm feeling kinda weird
Copy !req
139. Umamusume
Copy !req
140. Pretty Derby
Copy !req
141. I... see.
Copy !req
142. I had hoped that wasn't the case.
Copy !req
143. So, back at the Takarazuka Kinen...
Copy !req
144. Trainer-san...
Copy !req
145. I can keep running, can't I?
Copy !req
146. Of course, being past your prime doesn't mean
Copy !req
147. that you'll suddenly stop being able to race.
Copy !req
148. But it is true that you'll be
less competitive over time.
Copy !req
149. How long do I have?
Copy !req
150. When it come to horse girls
who have passed their peak...
Copy !req
151. It can play out any number of ways.
Copy !req
152. Some are suddenly unable
to run at all anymore,
Copy !req
153. and some see a gradual
decline in their ability.
Copy !req
154. There've been a few who suddenly
became competitive again,
Copy !req
155. like they were reborn, but...
Copy !req
156. In that case...
Copy !req
157. In that case, I might be
able to keep running, right?
Copy !req
158. It's possible.
Copy !req
159. But... what about the Prix
de l'Arc de Triomphe?
Copy !req
160. It's a goal that many horse girls
have attempted and failed at.
Copy !req
161. If you do win there, you'd leave your
mark on Japanese horse girl history.
Copy !req
162. But you'd be traveling a huge distance,
Copy !req
163. dealing with compatibility
issues with overseas turf,
Copy !req
164. and facing a whole slew of other risks.
Copy !req
165. Whatever you decide... make sure
you don't have any regrets.
Copy !req
166. I understand. If you'll excuse me.
Copy !req
167. To be honest...
Copy !req
168. I wouldn't want you to go in your condition.
Copy !req
169. Fukunaga Shopping District
Copy !req
170. I'm past my peak...
Copy !req
171. So that's what it was.
Copy !req
172. What do I do? What do I do? What do I do?
Copy !req
173. Dia-chan, I...
Copy !req
174. Okay, it's all done!
Copy !req
175. Looks about right.
Copy !req
176. It's lovely!
Copy !req
177. Hold it open...
Copy !req
178. Lift it up! A bit higher!
Copy !req
179. Easy there...
Copy !req
180. Nice!
Copy !req
181. It is.
Copy !req
182. The Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe!
It's a festival! Kitasan Black!
Copy !req
183. Wow, it's huge!
Copy !req
184. It turned out great, though.
Copy !req
185. Thank you all so much for helping with it.
Copy !req
186. Come on, it was our pleasure!
Copy !req
187. It really is a wonderful flag.
Copy !req
188. Our Kita-chan running at the
Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe...
Copy !req
189. Sounds like something from a dream.
Copy !req
190. The thing is...
Copy !req
191. Look, I know it'd be amazing for
her to race in France, right?
Copy !req
192. But still...
Copy !req
193. I think running in Fuchu
suits her best of all.
Copy !req
194. You've got a point.
Copy !req
195. I was hoping to root for her in the
stands during the fall G1 races.
Copy !req
196. It would've been great
Copy !req
197. if we could all watch Kita-chan
win both Tennoushous in one year!
Copy !req
198. We won't be able to see
her for a while, will we?
Copy !req
199. I'll miss her.
Copy !req
200. Passing a banana to Kita-chan
when she runs by every morning,
Copy !req
201. and then at the end of the
week following her races...
Copy !req
202. She's become a part of our
daily lives, hasn't she?
Copy !req
203. The Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe!
It's a festival! Kitasan Black!
Copy !req
204. Trainer's Office
Copy !req
205. I see... so you've decided.
Copy !req
206. Right.
Copy !req
207. They want to watch me. To watch me race.
Copy !req
208. They said that I'm part of it.
Part of their daily lives.
Copy !req
209. So I'm not going to France.
Copy !req
210. If I've only got a limited
amount of time left...
Copy !req
211. I want all of my races to be in front of
the people who are cheering for me.
Copy !req
212. Kitasan...
Copy !req
213. So register me for a whole
bunch of races, please!
Copy !req
214. The Fall Tennoushou, the Japan Cup,
the Arima Kinen... I'll run in them all.
Copy !req
215. Maybe you'll try for the Fall
Senior Triple Crown, then.
Copy !req
216. There've only been two horse
girls who've managed to win
Copy !req
217. those three particular G1 races.
Copy !req
218. Plus, the Fall Tennoushou is your chance to
win both of those races in a single year.
Copy !req
219. How about it?
Copy !req
220. Yeah!
Copy !req
221. Okay, in that case,
the Fall Tennoushou comes first.
Copy !req
222. Trainer-san.
Copy !req
223. I'm going to win the Tennoushou to
prove that I can still keep running.
Copy !req
224. Sure.
Copy !req
225. Okay! Let's do this!
Copy !req
226. Yeah...
Copy !req
227. I'm sorry I can't run with you.
Copy !req
228. Yeah... Yeah.
Copy !req
229. Let's both do our best.
Copy !req
230. Bye.

de Triomphe Plans Canceled
Copy !req
233. Satono Diamond Places 15th at
the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe
Copy !req
234. We're seeing a sky darkened
by a passing typhoon,
Copy !req
235. with heavy turf as a result
of persistent rain.
Copy !req
236. And in spite of that,
Copy !req
237. the bleachers here at the Tokyo Racecourse
Copy !req
238. are full of fans who've
gathered to watch them race.
Copy !req
239. We've got an impressive lineup of eight
G1 horse girls competing today...
Copy !req
240. And the most attention arguably falls on
Kitasan Black, with five G1 wins currently.
Copy !req
241. That's right.
Copy !req
242. If she can get out in front as usual,
Copy !req
243. we're likely to see an
impressive race from her.
Copy !req
244. What about Satono Crown,
who won the Takarazuka Kinen?
Copy !req
245. She's shown a knack for
running on heavy turf before.
Copy !req
246. It'll be interesting to see how
that plays into today's race.
Copy !req
247. The Fall Tennoushou will be starting shortly.
Copy !req
248. The Fall Tennoushou—2,000 meters in the rain—
Copy !req
249. has begun!
Copy !req
250. Whoa, and it looks like Kitasan
Black has made a late start!
Copy !req
251. She's running late!
Copy !req
252. We're seeing an intense fight for
first place in the muddy turf.
Copy !req
253. The rain may have thrown her timing off,
Copy !req
254. because Kitasan Black
is off to a rough start!
Copy !req
255. She's going to be observing the race
from the rear to start off today!
Copy !req
256. Kita-san had a late start?
Copy !req
257. This doesn't look good.
Copy !req
258. And in the first corner, we're seeing
number 11, Tour d'Ivoire,
Copy !req
259. number one, Hard Control, and
Kitasan Black in these positions!
Copy !req
260. The Fall Tennoushou is said to be
the traditional way of determining
Copy !req
261. who among the senior class running classic races
Copy !req
262. is the best at medium distances.
Copy !req
263. What brought that on?
Copy !req
264. In this race,
Copy !req
265. the first time you hit the second corner
is relatively short at 100 meters.
Copy !req
266. They say running on the inside is advantageous,
Copy !req
267. but considering the typhoon has
turned the turf heavy and muddy...
Copy !req
268. The runners avoid rough
patches on the inner edge,
Copy !req
269. causing more crowd density in the corner,
Copy !req
270. which has made a mess of
the fight for the lead.
Copy !req
271. And that's gonna make it even
harder for Kitasan Black,
Copy !req
272. who started late after a gate bump.
Copy !req
273. This is gonna be one tough race.
Copy !req
274. I'm amazed you caught all that.
Copy !req
275. They've entered the opposite straight.
Copy !req
276. Tour d'Ivoire is in the lead.
Copy !req
277. On the outside is number 18, Xbalanque,
with Satono Crown moving up on the inside!
Copy !req
278. They've cleared the first 1,000 meters.
Copy !req
279. The rough turf is clearly having
an effect, as it took 64 seconds.
Copy !req
280. Everyone's having such a hard time.
Copy !req
281. With the turf in this condition...
Copy !req
282. Trouble like this wouldn't normally
be enough to slow Kitasan down.
Copy !req
283. They're now entering the third curve.
Copy !req
284. Tour d'Ivoire is still in the lead...
Wait, it looks like Faster Than Ray has it now!
Copy !req
285. Okay!
Copy !req
286. Kitasan?
Copy !req
287. Where's this intensity coming from?
Copy !req
288. I can't lose... I won't!
Copy !req
289. And now Satono Crown has
risen to second place!
Copy !req
290. Which one of these horse girls
Copy !req
291. will conquer this muddy track
to claim the autumn plaque?
Copy !req
292. And now, entering the final corner,
with less than 600 meters left!
Copy !req
293. The horse girls are beginning
their last spurt!
Copy !req
294. They're avoiding the track's inside,
a slushy mess,
Copy !req
295. and running on the outside!
Copy !req
296. And Faster Than Ray is in first place!
Copy !req
297. It looks like this course has taken
its toll on the G1 horse girls,
Copy !req
298. because no one is closing in!
Copy !req
299. Whoa there!
Copy !req
300. And it's Satono Crown who
starts to push forward!
Copy !req
301. She's proving her skill at running
through mud as she starts to move up!
Copy !req
302. Okay!
Copy !req
303. Satono Crown seizes the lead—
Copy !req
304. No, and now, all of a sudden,
here's Kitasan Black!
Copy !req
305. She's charging her way through
Copy !req
306. the muddy inside of the track
that everyone is avoiding,
Copy !req
307. and Kitasan Black is suddenly gaining ground!
Copy !req
308. Crown-san!
Copy !req
309. Go!
Copy !req
310. Do it! Kitasan!
Copy !req
311. Kitasan Black is furiously closing in!
Copy !req
312. And now she's in the lead!
Copy !req
313. I'm gonna win this!
Copy !req
314. Four hundred meters to go!
Copy !req
315. Kitasan is maintaining her lead!
She's still ahead!
Copy !req
316. But Satono Crown is right behind!
Copy !req
317. Can Kitasan Black escape her?
Copy !req
318. Can Satono Crown pass her?
Copy !req
319. Kitasan!
Copy !req
320. This is it!
Copy !req
321. Kitasan is looking strained!
Copy !req
322. And now Satono Crown moves to
the inside in an effort to pass!
Copy !req
323. Here comes Crown! Here comes Crown!
Copy !req
324. The gap is shrinking!
Copy !req
325. Kitasan is holding on for
dear life! She's still in the lead!
Copy !req
326. We're seeing a real struggle
through this muddy terrain
Copy !req
327. as they both push forward down the lengthy
Copy !req
328. Tokyo straight towards glory in a dead heat!
Copy !req
329. Who will obtain the fall plaque
in the middle of this storm?
Copy !req
330. Kitasan Black? Or Satono Crown?
Copy !req
331. Crown-san! You can do it!
Copy !req
332. Go!
Copy !req
333. But Kitasan holds!
Copy !req
334. It's Kitasan Black!
Copy !req
335. And Kitasan Black crosses the goal!
Copy !req
336. The anxieties from the Arima
Kinen have been laid to rest!
Copy !req
337. What a splendid win from Kitasan Black!
Copy !req
338. She had a rare slip up at the start,
Copy !req
339. but when all was said
and done, it wasn't a problem!
Copy !req
340. She was able to overpower
the typhoon-muddied course,
Copy !req
341. and demonstrate why she's currently
considered the strongest in the Twinkle Series!
Copy !req
342. By winning the Fall Tennoushou!
Copy !req
343. And with that, she has won both
Tennoushou races in a single year!
Copy !req
344. Amazing... Kita-san was really amazing!
Copy !req
345. In addition to Special Week and T.M. Opera O,
Copy !req
346. we've seen Kitasan Black's name
chiseled into horse girl history!
Copy !req
347. A winning time of 02:08.30!
Copy !req
348. She was able to overcome
some rough conditions,
Copy !req
349. and keep Satono Crown from managing
to get ahead until the end!
Copy !req
350. Kitasan Black has now won
her sixth G1 victory!
Copy !req
351. I see...
Copy !req
352. I see.
Copy !req
353. I see...
Copy !req
