What?

Umamusume appears to be a sports anime revolving around track and field.
And horse girls(?).
It looks cute. The first episode is exceptionally well animated  and...


That's it. I'm out.

2 Their Producer was a detriment for me. Well, fans did say that Im@s had a Cute P in the original and Cool P in Cinderella Girls, so we needed a Passion P.

3 Good grief I'm out of the loop. Pete, Im sorry, but I don't understand the second sentence.

(P=Pulchra /Pulchur/Pulchrae?)

4 Following from the context of the first sentence, P = Producer?

7 Well, that's a different kind of Ponygirl than I'm used to....

8 And with that, the room got very quiet. The awkward silence persisted for what seemed like an eternity after which it was only broken by the the light clanks of glasses being set down and muffled whispers as the party-goers shuffled out the door.

9 This was pretty interesting - looks like Cygames planned it as a game tie-in, actually produced the anime, and then realized "you know, the overlap between fans of horse racing and idol anime is fairly small..." The game went back in the oven and, over a year later, has not emerged.
So what happened? Was the game just, y'know, bad? Did Cygames just decide to let it slide into oblivion because they thought their efforts would be better spent running Granblue conventions? Did Dragalia take priority or what? You've got to respect anyone in the game industry that can take a look at a lousy game and say "yeah, let's just kill it here" rather than pushing it out to an unsuspecting public.

10 iM@S made that 'P' suffix popular, see The Legand of MomozakiP. Now I see it in other franchizes with a similar setup, where a manager plays a role.
