| Gloomy Spe-chan and Suzuka are now back on their feet thanks to Trainer's encouragement. And not only that he wants all of them to participate. He's a good coach laugh so hard at "I can't stop!" and "neither can we" parts sending them all straight to the water. I'm so glad that Suzuka, Spe and everyone had a laugh. Its time for come to make a comeback and not let team Rigil keep on winning. It was predictable El Condor will lose against Broya. Only Suzuka and Rudolf are the only two I see who has a good chance in defeating her. |
| episode was so good for some growth glad both spec and Suzaka have finally broken their shackles and are moving forward. EL :( she was so close but Broye didn't even break a sweat with how she was pacing herself |
 |
| Suzuka and Spe-chan are finally back! Great episode overall. Hope we can see them race each other soon |
| ayee nice gif ha hella glad suzuka is moving in the right direction, i need my girl back in her rightful spot |
| Amazing episode. Suzuka and Spe-chan's confidence are back. Suzuka also seems to be more sociable now. Surprised at them all going into the water by accident. XD Too bad El-chan lost. But at least the anime is not biased.. they showed that horse girls from other countries are also fast. |

| And yet again with real footage in this eps. |
Glasses girls is the best girls. |
| Oh, I'll miss the yandere lesbian version of Spe-chan from the last episode... But if without jokes, then I like how carefully they add new characters from the original franchise. Not to mention the fact that the plot continues to be good. Terrific. |
 |
| @FMmatron There are four more episodes left. |

Want to know how to run faster? Just start screaming "Ehhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!" and you're guaranteed to push to the lead. I call it, Dramatic Effect |
Whoahoho said: Beach season too bad none of them looks hot in thier swim suit ....nice to see Suzuka's back in her confident self.....Poor El Chan got passed by Broye in the French Prix welp can't win them all None of them looks hoy un their swim suit? ARE YOU BLIND???!! (Wait, are those swim suit?) Those suit just happen to show their whole figure, how well trained and healthy their bodies are (I think that sounds a little too pervert... Anyhow I stand by it XD). |
| One day I'll be active here, in the mean time I'll keep track of what I watch offline 😅 |
| So glad best horse girl Suzuka is back to her old self |

| This show man... Just doesn't stop amazing me. Why the hell haven't I given it a 10 yet is something I'll probs be confused about till I see another fantastic episode (read: next episode). Needless to say, this episode was as fantastic as the past, if not better. Oh and this is only the third ever show to have a beach episode that I liked which is saying something. Amaze me Uma Musume. Or wait, amaze me more. |

If we are going to use the Suzuka vs. El Condor match as a way to compare horse girl speed. El vs Broye = the gap is small.. Suzuaka vs El = the gap is really big in the Tennoshou race. I think Suzuka would have a good chance against Broye if they raced.. assuming she would not get tired. |
| Another awesome and adorable episode! I am glad Suzuka is recovered and became unafraid to run like she did again. Plus all of them running into the ocean was hilarious! Can't wait for the next episode! |
| I must say I'm amazed at how good this anime managed to be. Trainer-san went from filler Male to a genuinely good man that looks after his team, a real pro Trainer that aims to the top and brings the best out of his athletes. the chemistry between spica is superb, rivalries and everything is handed with good sportmanship. They really made a good sports anime out of a silly idea. |
 |
| Finally trainer-san's anger made both spe and suzuka back to their real form. That's what I waiting for ! Dat fall into sea scene made me laugh XD note : they invented phone for horse ! XD |

| I need catch up watching this anime, it's good anime. |
 |
| As expected El Condor Pasa lost to Broye since she's the best in Europe. The best in every country is really on a different level..i wonder who would win if Suzuka vs Broye when Suzuka was at her best? I wonder what would happen? The training session was great! Suzuka instantly beat the while team Spica! I hope Spe-chan step-up as well! 5/5. |

| Ending was heartbreaking. Felt bad for El Condor Pasa. |
JOQUINYD said: I don't know why I hate El cóndor. I hate her too at first coz of her over competitiveness is kind of annoying, insensitive and cocky but she had proven herself otherwise, warmly accepting a tie with Spe and wasn't happy over her "win" against Suzuka and continues to be friendly with Spe and Suzuka despite considering both her rivals. She's surprisingly nice and likeable now but irregardless of all of that, if she actually won against Broye I'd probably still hate her tho coz a character without flaws is just plain badly written |

| Pretty nice training camp episode, loved that Suzuka could run again like before or at least faster! The ending race with El-chan was also very impressive and well it's normal that she acted that way with a loss so close to victory! Really like that they focus on various things and not only the team at hand. Up to the next episode! |
 |
| That's so stupid that the other team members are ridiculously weak compared to Spe and Suzuka. That's really annoying shit. |
| I thought they used a real french seiyuu from Broye but no, i'm happy she won because she's french xD sad for El though, she really wanted to win :/ The race on the island was really fun |

Gvendoline said: That's so stupid that the other team members are ridiculously weak compared to Spe and Suzuka. That's really annoying shit. Putting Spe aside since she was technically training with them the whole time, Suzuka being able to overtake them was kind of ridiculous. She has been out of commission for over 9 months while the other girls on the team have supposedly been improving. |
| glad Trainer talked some sense into them, I saw Broye winning from a mile away since I highly doubt they would introduce a national championship racer and get beat first race against El |

| Trainer-san looked pretty determined this episode, and kinda surprised with his train enthusiastic. Ofc, his team was not in a good shape after having his two stars to lost their shines, almost every races. So, at the end, summer training camp has been held to created a better atmosphere to the Spica team. Its still hard, but slowly they regained their usual form. Once again, they showed how to perform well, and beyond the limits. A bit of repetitive, kinda bored to death with the slow pace of train, after having a big timeskip previously. But, as soon seeing their happy face, everything just turned out decent enough. Ah, and one more, El-chan, don't give up, and keep running to grasping the world of your dreams! Its mostly motivated Spe-chan, into a better understanding! |

| Very enjoyable episode once again. Trainer-san was absolutely right. |

| Such an enjoyable training episode, especially with Trainer achieving his goal of changing Spe-chan's mentality |
| Downloaded the first season and watched most of it on a cabin camping trip, and am now back and connected to wifi so I can finally post here again. I'll just say that I wasn't expecting much from this anime. I saw the clip where Tokai sings "ballin'" and decided to check this out; mostly expecting to drop it after a couple episodes or so after seeing that it was generic and boring- probably. But no, this ain't bad at all. In fact, there seems to always be a point or two in each episode that makes me wanna cry. For this episode, of course it was Trainer-san getting both Special Week's and Suzuka's mind back on track, reminding them why they run and why they want to win. This show was a pleasant surprise, I'm looking forward to finishing the rest and then moving on to season 2, which is supposedly even better than this first season. A season 3 is also on the way I believe. Wasn't this just supposed to be an ad for some mobile game? Maybe I'm wrong; but either way, this quite a solid show. |

| When El Condor Pasa called Special Week, I told myself that if the anime managed to have El start crying over the phone, but the anime never shows her face, the anime actually knows what it’s doing. I’m so happy right now. I’m so happy that Uma Musume knows how to get across El’s emotions through Special Week’s perspective. I’m so happy that it’s up to Special Week, and by extension the audience, to assume what El looks like and is feeling. I’m so happy that Uma Musume truly is a sports anime, in the sense that everyone’s friends, but also rivals. They’re supportive and kind to one another, but they’ll also fight for their individual dreams, and will push each other to fight for theirs as well. For a concept as ridiculous as horse girls, I’m pleasantly surprised at how competent this show is. |
| they are back in the game. that phone though |

| Obvious Rose of Versailles reference is obvious Really though, I miss when the sportswear was just a tracksuit with the numbercard, I feel like these outfits are a bit impractical aerodynamically for racing. |
 "A name... Toru Rikiishi" |
| How is it that Hana is able to afford the better hotel with an even bigger team than Spica? Both her and Spica's trainer are in the same job, so what's with the massive affordability difference? Maybe just because she's goot at least a year of winnings as this was Spica's first year at the start of the season. Suzuka and Spe finally looking to be out of their slumps. Trainer having to be tough to get the message across. Sure they can all be friends, but they have to know that are competing against each other in the races. Don't slow down, they need to catch up. Clearly a steeper hill with a sharper turn than everyone was used to on the tracks. Off the road, through the trees, and hitting the water with enough force to risk a tsunami xD |
