    Summary

    It is said that nearly every Umamusume wants to run, that they are born with that desire in their heart and soul. That simple desire burning within them, pushing them to fulfil it however they can.

    Some Uma are lucky, others are not...

    This is simply the story of one of the lucky ones.

    Summary

    The current era of horsegirl racing is one dominated by stallions, with mares relegated to being seen as second rate. As she enters her junior year, finally able to debut in the Twinkle Series, mare Air Groove gets the opportunity to join the Tracen Academy Student Council.

    Joining Narita Brian, who she already dislikes, and the enigmatic stallion Symboli Rudolf, Air Groove vows to inspire others like her and reach the peak of Uma Musume. But that is easier said than done, and she finds herself in an uphill battle both on and off the turf. Her confidence wavers, her emotions toyed with and ignored, but Air Groove must press on. Before the weight of her vow threatens to send her crashing down.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    one of the best and most emotional things I've read and one of the works that inspired me the most. The author has care for and knowledge of the Deep Horse Lore. I hollered out loud at least on two occasions and wept at least once, maybe twice. Rudolf is a bastard. I listened to Womanizer by Britney Spears on loop for a while when I finished one of the chapters and I doubt that was the author's intent.

    An absolute roller coaster of emotions, and it isn't even done yet. Phenomenal.

    Summary

    Symboli Rudolf has turned her attention away from racing, and towards the goal of creating a better, brighter tomorrow for those that come after her. After ascending to the position of Student Council President at Tracen Academy, however, she must confront the reality that all is not quite as it seems for the undefeated Triple Crown winner, and that in order to achieve her dreams, she must open herself up to the realization that she deserves happiness, too. Thankfully, that realization may come in the form of her Vice President, Air Groove, who she herself is grappling with the pitfalls of a life post-retirement and the unyielding weight of legacy upon her shoulders.
