| It looks like Uma Musume really set their sights on a fruitful development of the franchise and this clearly has good feedback. But what do you personally think? How popular is it in the West and are you waiting for the new season yourself? |
 |
| more horse racing for me, pog |
 |
| This franchise is almost unknown outside Japan, but very popular at home. Is it really confirmed that Tokai Teiō and Mejiro McQueen will be main characters in season 3? I can't find a source to verify that assumption MAL has done. Sounds a bit odd if it's correct, when they usually are switching main characters each season. |

Maybe for a start the moderators just copied information from the second season, I don't know. Do you think it's almost unpopular in the West? Weird, I thought at least the shippers were attracted to it, although after the PAWORKS changes the show became almost chaste. |
|
| Nice surprise. I'm really excited about this. |
 |
| I'm excited. S2 was amazing. MAL's already listed McQueen and Teio as the MCs of this one. I'd love to see more of them, they're both great girls, but if they continue the trend of focusing on different girls every season that would be cool too. |
  |
| This was awesome to wake up to, it’s probably true this isn’t popular in the west but it’s definitely popular with me lol |
| WOW, A SEASON 3? CyGames is digging this hard, and more Uma Musume is good for the health. |
 |
| Wow this is very unexpected. Season 1 is great but season 2 is a bit meh with all the continuous drama for Teo, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I’m excited who will the main character be. I’m guessing or well I’m hoping it’s Rice Shower and a different horse girl. Mihono Bourbon can work too. |

My guess is that they will continue to build on the girl x girl rivalry as that was the most successful formula in the first and especially in the second season. |

Well, it's a typical all-female show with minimal fan service, so I think a 1v1 rivalry would be the most obvious solution for that. It seems that nowadays even the Bushi have realized that chaste shows with a good strong story and character development sell waifu bait franchises much better than the older fan service ship bait. |

|
| I want to see Team Canopus story for season 3, though with how Kitasan Black And Satono Diamond entered Tracen Academy in season 2 it's possible they might be the center of the story. |

| [quote=GangsterCat message=67909303] What stereotypes? Dude, do you even know what we're talking about? A typical all-female show is a typical all-female cast show. It literally can be anything except that it's only female characters. |
|
| i was just rewatching the first two seasons, so good to know there is a new one coming. considering the special was about the little girls (black and diamond) growing up, im guessing the third season could be about them. |
| > Expectations More broken legs, lol |
| best anime, instant 10/10 |
 |
| I don't know what to expect but aslong as we get more Twin Turbo I'm happy :) |

Not weird in any way. I don't think anything about the subject, nor have an opinion about this. I'm just stating facts, that the game still unfortunately isn't released in English, and the figures doesn't sell very well outside of Japan. I personally will buy all of the figures in school uniform of course, and I already have bought many of them. On conventions not many people here in Europe know anything about the Uma Musume franchise. But I really hope it's going to be a lot more known and popular in the future. |

So you're saying that all these people had absolutely no interest in the franchise other than a brief shiping or occasional anime viewing due to all-female fanservice? |

I'm just stating facts from my end, that the show unfortunately isn't very known in the west. Yet. I hope it changes of course. |

The anime sold well thanks to the invested bonuses for other Cygames titles, but it certainly wasn't the best-selling show.

Not sure what you are arguing. I'm saying that in terms of disc sales (numbers), Uma Musume S2 is the highest-selling TV anime of all time. Code Geass's highest selling volume sold around 62,527 copies. I'm also not arguing WHY something sold well, or the quality. Love Live also sells very well because they bundle bonuses relating to getting live concert tickets. All I'm saying is that Uma Musume sold incredibly well, so a third anime season was inevitable. Not sure why that is a point of contention. |

Not sure why that is a point of contention. Initially, you stated that this is the most selling show at all. And I highly doubt that even two seasons together could bring in more than a million with such sales. And this is clearly not the most successful sales on discs, I have seen shows that sold for 300 or even 400 hundred thousand per disc. For example, in 2020 https://erzat.blog/anime-industry-report-2021-part-3-the-crumbling-videogram-market-but-is-there-still-hope/ there were overall sales easily overtook Uma Musume. Lol, no. Love Live has always sold extremely well because it's one of the most iconic franchises of the 00s. To claim that they need bonuses for high sales is simply ridiculous. While Cygames manipulation of sales was noted even by fans of the series in old discussions. One way or another, the decision on new adaptations of such titles is determined not so much by the success of the anime, but by the success of the original game. |

| i think twin turbo is a likely protagonist i want an oguri cap story but she already has her own manga (i really want a cingray anime bros) my greatest wish is just to see umas who haven't been animated yet like seeking the pearl or marvelous sunday, or ones that appeared once and didnt do a whole lot like tachyon or air shakur |

Cygames do this a lot, I've heard the same about Princess Connect. Anyway, I enjoyed both shows. |
