What did you all think about the new movie? This was my first introduction and kinda underwhelmed

looking up at big fuji kiseki was a transcendental experience

>new
it's almost 2 years old rumao
it had some strong moments for sure like the times Fuji sparks inspiration and color in Pokke at the beginning and before JC and the races were great, but I also wish there could have been a director's cut version of the film with like an extra 40 minutes to flesh out the cast more (not like those cuts typically exist for animated films though)

There's a theatrical run going on rn. So it's new to me
>40 minutes to flesh out the cast more
Maybe that could have happened if they didn't waste their money on an idol concert

It should have been just Jungle Pocket and Fuji desu. Also is Fuji supposed to be a prince type?

The animation is beautiful but it kind of has the same problem as season 3 imo. The animation goes all out, all the time, so when we get to the climax it doesn't have anywhere to go except for doing some abstract and metaphorical stuff. By itself that wouldn't be a problem, but since the characters are all a little underdeveloped, the stellar animation can't sell the emotional moments no matter how many metaphors and effects they cram into the scene
Peak umamusume will always be season 2

lol I guess there's a lot someone entirely new wouldn't get. the winning live definitely feels totally random to someone who hasn't seen any other uma since despite ostensibly being made for anyone to get into it also totally makes the assumption that you're actually already familiar with the winning live aspect (which really only has proper exposition in the beginning of season 1). as for the other characters you can't really write them off because the umas are all based off historical racehorses who really were in those races (the franchise is basically a big multigenerational adaptation of Japanese horse racing) so those other umas really should have been given more time to cook within the film. and yes Fuji is definitely a prince type lmao

>little underdeveloped
A little? We hardly spent time with any of them in a way that matters. Couldn't even have a moment between jungle pocket and overlord
>>4534763
>winning live
So they all have an intense race where it's obvious if they don't win they are in tears and have some kind of self loathing and are expected to just do peppy songs after?
>write them off
I'm not writing them off, I'm putting more focus on those two. Shit even the trainer deserved more screen time.

Also really sanitized mental episodes

>>4534769
>We hardly spent time with any of them in a way that matters
I like the characters despite everything, so I was trying to be nice

>>4534794
You can say that and still be annoyed that they didn't get any meaningful screen time. At least Liz and the Blue Bird only focused on 2 characters
