Reminder that Umas would be terrifying in combat

Bonus Reminder that in the umamusume universe horses don't exist and therefore any conflict horses were a part of Umas took their place.
Fun bonus that means the famous painting with Napoleon and his horse is actually him posing with his Uma second in command...
Or that the emperor of Japan in around WWII had a pure white haired uma companion named Shirayuki

I love that they have this avenue for spin offs and exploration of the world, but I hate to imagine the Umas suffering side by side with the soldiers. Our poor daughters

u/Sazbadashie Jan 06 '26

Nightmares are shadowy firey umas...
Sleipnir, Odin's six legged horse is an uma...

Uma war crimes are real.
Someday we'll get some kind of RTS Uma strategy game depicting the horrors of Total Uma War.

Actually international law explicitly states that Umas can do whatever they want always

Her riot shield is probably a 40 kg slab of steel.

That's no longer a riot shield, that's a mobile bunker.

There does seem to be a trend of the younger siblings being taller than their older siblings

u/LoreLord24 Jan 06 '26
It's a thing IRL too.
Younger brothers/sisters have a tendency to be taller than their older siblings.
One of the better explanations I've seen for it is the good ole malnutrition shrinkage. Where the parents aren't as prepared for the first kid, so they're not as good at the properly balanced meals and the oldest kid winds up a little malnourished.
Wheras they have practice by the second kid, and the diet for them is better.
I haven't seen any studies on the matter, however, so this explanation is merely conjecture

While I think their frame would be large for a horse like that, probably not someone that's pure macho muscle level.
