I LOVE GOLDSHIP SO MUCH AHHHHHHHHH

>>149368551 (OP)
i only know these girls from shadowverse, but good for them

Having a cult-like fanbase years after finishing is hardly forgotten.

>>149368551 (OP)
It still fucks me up that Japan managed to get a bunch of people into horse race gambling just by turning the horses into anime girls.

>>149368621
It worked for me like damn.
I haven't gotten so into something in decades, like I'm genuinely enjoying life again.

>>149368551 (OP)
Is this shit really some front for the Yakuza or something?

>>149368551 (OP)
OP, look at yourself.

>>149368621
Dude, you could get people into competitive scarf knitting if you made it about anime girls.

>>149368551 (OP)
They're horses, not ponies

>>149368621
I bet in a few years they will offer an animated stream overlaying the horses with the anime girl versions

>>149368640
I don't know anything about what this is. How is it possibly interesting enough beyond coombait to make you feel this way?

>>149368551 (OP)
SHEEEEEEEEE'S BAAACK

>>149368698
Potato tomato

>>149368670
No, the Yakuza own some of the real life horses the anime girls are based off of

>>149368711
It's not really coombait, but the racing scenes are fantastic and keep me on the edge of my chair, first time I actually yelled at a TV in nearly a decade. I'm even playing the game too.

>>149368551 (OP)
>ponies
Anon, those are full-grown horses

>>149368733
I love her so much much much!

Erm.... yeahhhhh. How about... no?

>>149368551 (OP)
yuri game btw

>>149368693
it is less about the results and more about the sheer immorality of it.
>>149368640
>>149368730
As long as you don't have the local loan shark threatening to break your legs, good for you.

I thought this was a game first.

>>149368640
Its a low effort gacha, dude, be serious.

>>149368780
>it is less about the results and more about the sheer immorality of it.
Oh that too. You could totally get weebs into dog fighting if it was cute anime girls who "fought" but never actually died.

>>149368823
Nah, let us ryona chads feed too

>>149368779
It's actually hot though? I'm only homophobic to ugly fags.

>>149368793
It was, then it got adapted into an anime.

>>149368621
Not a single bit of gambling in the game.
It's more about the training aspect of it.

>>149368887

Thought so.

>nohooves
They're not ponies, they're not horses. They're anime women with animal ears.

>>149369070
They are horses and they're racing. Autists eat this shit up.

>>149369081
Anon, there are no horses. Those are human women.

>>149369223
why is she like this?

>>149369232
Just a lil silly.

I propose we draw pony versions of the horse anime girls in hopes of causing an autism singularity.

For me, it's Tachyon.

>>149369271
Why does this show about horse racing have better animation than any of the modern action animes?

>>149369281
Horse autists painstakingly learning the best animation of the craft to give their waifus the treatment they deserve

>>149369281
they love what they're working on

>>149369265
yeah we're not interested, we have our own mares

>>149369281
It also has better animation than any /co/ "adult cartoon" shit that netflix pushes out.

>>149369347
And yet you can't talk about them here.

>>149369281
Movie animation.

>>149368823
Isn't that kind of the premise behind the cute anime girls are military ships anime?

Why do they do this shit?

>>149369367
you could cut the sexual tension with a knife

>>149369281
All the passionate animators are freaks, so your show has to have some freaky elements to it to get them really into animating, like a really sexy shota, or violent, graphic rape, or child abuse.
If you can hit the trifecta and attract the real freaks to work on it you'll have a real gem on your hands.

>>149369391
Most of the fans are racists Anon.

I did get a good reaction image from this at minimum

>>149370241
She's so cool.

>>149368551 (OP)
Yeah it's kinda funny that the most popular Western cartoon this century is banned on /co/. Kinda like shooting yourself in the foot

You people would have a meltdown if GR15 was deactivated

my girl Oguri clears

>>149369281
what anime are you watching? Dandadan, Panty and Stocking, and Dress up darling look great. Hell even One Piece has been looking amazing lately.
Also thats a movie clip. The animation in the regular series is average.

>>149368711
its a rougelike with cute girls

>>149370498
Were you not around when they first came around? They infected every fucking board like the flood it was so bad. On /co/ it was sometimes impossible to have any discussion about anything without it turning into some pony-fied version of it.

Horse racing was always popular in Japan. This Super Nintendo game sold a million copies.

>>149370608

Only thing that can equal it was when vtumors started blowing up during covid.

>>149370600
I LOVE THIS AUTISTIC HORSE SO MUCH

>>149370674
I look forward to her taking on the foreign horses.

>>149370652
Its the truth faggotron
>>149370660
I think that shook up /a/ and /jp/ mostly

>>149370570
Most of /co/ doesn't really know much about anime outside of like One Piece and Naruto.
I will say though, there are a surprising amount of well-animated shows this season.

>>149368823
Did you forget Pokemon as a concept exists? They didn't even need anime girls for that and it's the world's biggest single IP.

>>149369281
The game in Japan earned the parent company a shitton of money and they opened their own animation studio. Now their movies and anime seasons have big budgets.

>>149370832
i mean, the cute girls definitely helped with pokemons marketing. Have you seen all the Cynthia, Lillie, and other pokegirl merch there is? They were able to tap into the cute girl, boy, and cute monsters market at once.

>>149370871
forgot to attach the pic, but look at these

>>149370843
Cygames is based, last season Apocalypse Hotel was pretty good and so far The Summer Hikaru Died is great.
I'm glad the game is doing even better now because it means they can pump even more money into their anime and non-gacha games.

>>149370608
The brony inability to not make everything about ponies was the definitive proof that 99% of adult male bronies are autistic in some way. Not knowing when to shut the fuck up about your "special interest" on a site like 4chan of all places is nothing but autism. One or two autists schizoposting and derailing is something the jannies can ignore. But when it's the entirety of a show's fanbase on /co/? It's no wonder they got banned.

>>149369391
Reddit hates anime and gacha that isn't Hoyoverse slop or Wuthering Waves out of contrarianism towards Hoyoverse slop thoughbeit

/co/ ponies are still alive and well, is just way more underground now, and the amount of females is also much healthier so you won't see around here much anymore.

I find something cool about it every two or three weeks now, but now instead of porn is mostly animations, music, comics and alike always dripping in female angst and shit like that.

I probably prefer this way? You get less things but in general they are way less repetitive. Male based fanbases peak and can only do porn it seems. Female ones are often more retarded and hard to deal with but their intellectual limitations thanks to the inferior female brain can give us a bit more.

>>149368551 (OP)
>Generic anime girls... with tiny animal ears
What's appeal?

>>149370960
Mmm, nah, female fandoms are too inundated with annoying drama and autistic catty bullshit.
They all have all the shit I hate about cartoon fandoms dialed up to 11.

>>149368551 (OP)
for me, it's Daiwa Scarlet and Rice Shower :3

>>149370843
I went to Japan 2 years ago and it was the most popular IP by a mile, it was all over pachinko machines and there were nonstop ads for the gatchagame. That's how I learned how obsessed japs are with horse racing and gambling. Waifuizing the race horses just broke the country's collective brain, they can't stop throwing piles of money at everything umamusume

>Generic anime girls but with tiny animal ears
What's appeal? Why do weebs eat this slop?

>>149368551 (OP)

It's not at the same peak it was around 2021-2023 but I'm wondering if the English release will revitalize it in Japan. The game's graphics were ahead of the game in 2021 and the company has to put in max effort for each horse girl's story since they can't disrepect the jockeys and owners of the real-life horses. It's a good setup for a high effort gacha. Only problem is that the animated stuff peaked early and we're getting more 100% hype aura entries than those with good stories, when it's the strong stories that lead to the best boosts in playerbase.

>>149370960

Technically they're /v/ ponies.

MLP:FiM was so strong that it ran for nearly a decade, it became the template for any other modern fandom you see, and its autism brough the AI hellscape we live in, all because the horsefuckers didn't want to let go of their pony waifus

>Utterly hate Horses
>Horse related things utterly unavoidable at moment
well shit

>>149368551 (OP)
This place sucks shit, but did you really need to make an Uma thread here? The internet is fucking overflowing with Uma content right now. You can find and talk about and shitpost about umas pretty much everywhere else on the internet. Why start a bait thread on /co/?

>>149368814
>low effort
NTA but the fucked up thing is that it's incredibly high effort for a 4 year old game. The reason it's been so huge for so long and gotten tons of anime and movies and such is because the game is unusually high quality compared to the majority of gacha games.

>>149371500
i like crossboarding

>>149371516
You know what? I don't actually care. This thread is surprisingly higher quality than most shit on /co/, so carry on.

It's not for everyone, but there's a lot of reasons why its clicking with so many people.
