    I didn’t even know “Horse Girl” is a word that existed.

      It always meant “girls obsessed with horses” to me growing up. I remember some of the assholes at my high school giving them a hard time asking them if they want to fuck the horses.

      This seems like a whole different thing entirely.

        This is different, yes (it’s another gacha game with horse racing as the main concept, except the horses are anime girls). But the Venn Diagram between the two different breeds of “horse girls” is looking more and more like a circle with each passing day

    Amazing! Love it. I was too poor to be a horse girl in high school. I knew some girls that were and this seems very much something they’d do!

    Honestly, this sounds fun. Cosplaying, enjoy talks about the anime, being sportive and just having a fun time.

    Prefer this than all the current conflicts in the world.

    Clearly ya’ll have not known any horse girls.

    This is extremely normal for them.

    I’d be willing to bet there are nearly 0 horse girls who are not also absolute super fans of some kind of cartoon media / video game.

    I dated a horse girl back in the mid to late 00’s.

    She was studying Japanese at Uni, and I am 90% sure she was writing fan subs for Death Note, as it was coming out.

    Oh and also was just fully fabricating her own cosplays, like multiple a year, at the kind of quality level you’d see people making businesses out of on etsy, a decade later.

    … We did not end up working out, but she’s since gone on to literally cross all of Mongolia, on horseback.

    Do not fuck with nor underestimate horse girls.

      until it’s revealed a horse is transphobic.

      No need to worry there, I think I speak for all of us when I say: Trans rights are human rights! 🏳️‍⚧️

      The premise of umamusume is that horses from our world get reincarnated as horse girls in the world of umamusume.

      Yes, even the male horses.
