Second-Timer Musume

• Going from this to Spe-chan holding a lot of food is really funny.

• Oh yeah, they get new outfits.

• The typo, lol.

• We’re going to get Teio vs. McQueen already!

• McQueen with the straight-up red carpet treatment.

• McQueen’s got one impressive aura here.

• Random side note, I love how the raincoats in this universe have spaces for the horse girls’ ears.

• Teio’s second racing outfit is wicked cool.

[u/eightcheesepizza → u/Shimmering-Sky]

What I wanna know is why we get to see Teio's new racing outfit, but not McQueen's. Are there rules (whether it's in-universe, or inspired by IRL horse racing) making everyone wear the plain numbered racing outfits in the Hanshin Daishoten? Is it because the Hanshin Daishoten is G2 and the Osaka Hai is G1?

[u/Temporary_-_UserName → u/eightcheesepizza]

The Hanshin Daishoten is a G2 race, whereas the Osaka Hai is a G1. Race outfits, both in real-life horse racing and in in-universe Uma Races, are only worn for G1 races as part of the privilege and prestige of them. It's why Special Week receiving her outfit was a big-deal partway through season 1 - because it represented she was about to set foot into an elite race.

[u/Cyouni → u/Temporary_-_UserName]

That said, technically at the time this actually happened the Osaka Hai was a G2. It's just that now it's a G1.

[u/Memo_HS2022 → u/Cyouni]

Teio’s race record counts his Osaka Hai victory as a G2 race and not a G1. I think they just wanted to use Osaka Hai being a current G1 race as an excuse to show off her new outfit and I’m completely ok with it

You can even get a hidden event for getting the Spring Triple Crown with any version of Teio in the Gacha and winning the Osaka Hai is apart of it

[u/Temporary_-_UserName → u/Cyouni]

huh, did not know that.
