Also I kept calling Manhattan Cafe a goth, but I didn't KNOW for SURE if she was one or just wore a lot of black.

But no, that's my fellow girl with a coffin-shaped, black-velvet-lined heart. 🖤

I did not emotionally survive the two runs I did. I overdosed on yuri cocaine angst. I've never screamed so much at one girl calling another girl her friend. It was peak.

I was hoping for either a really early Cafe so I could also pull on Kawakami, or hitting pity while getting several new-to-me girls. Two 3*s in 140 pulls seems low, but at least I wanted the other one!

And then my partner talked me into doing one last 10 pull for Kawakami AND GUESS WHAT

Not the outcome I was hoping for, but I got Cafe before pity along with one other 3* - Wedding Air Groove!

I believe in you! If I can do it, you can do it! (you're better at this game than me)

I was NOT chill about this album. (Although I am surprised it was only Mayhem songs in the top, I listened to A LOT of her music overall this year...)
December 3, 2025 at 9:10 PM
I knew she was going to be my top artist, but I wasn't expecting to be a 0.1% global listener omg

Holy shit, it only took me A YEAR

To channel Digitan for a moment: Just imagining owning THE Manhattan Cafe... I can't. My poor little heart can't hold all of these feels! Aaaaah, I'm gonna cry tears of joy!

I NEED to save for Cafe + Kitasan rerun, but... but!!! I want to win the Triple Tiara with Kawakami!!! 😭

I'm so glad I went through with my original plan and pulled for her. She's an amazing girl and reduced me to tears more than once. 💜

Also got to put this goober in her big dumb coat 🥰💜💜💜

All in all, I really can't complain about this. Two new girls, more star pieces of Rudolf, and Halloween Rice in under 100 pulls 💜😭
November 25, 2025 at 12:36 AM
And also, when I get home from work I am pulling on Halloween Rice so I thought I'd screenshot my carats for posterity. (Can you tell I've been saving since I started playing in August?)

Thought this run with Hishiama was kind of disappointing (only won one of the Tiara races)(should have brought a stamina card over power), although her list of sparks showed that I am moving in the right direction... and then I saw I got her unique epithet?! She's also my #1 rated!
November 24, 2025 at 9:42 AM
It just hit me - why haven't I seen fanart of Tachyon hitting the good ol' Shaft head tilt angle? Like, she's a character made to hit that pose! Are we losing our sacred texts?!

My partner doesn't play Umamusume but she LOVES Gold Ship, so I'm always sending her any new dialogue I come across. And for like the past week she keeps randomly saying "ramen is pretty much a drink" and chuckling to herself. Thank you for the brain worms Golshi 🙏

Yesterday marked two years straight of reading every day. 💜

I maintained my streak even though extreme depression and burnout, because depression cost me a ~10 month streak in 2023 and it was honestly upsetting? Even if it was only 1-5 pages, I didn't want to lose this streak too!
November 16, 2025 at 11:36 PM
And the last of the free 10-pulls decided to bless me! 🙏

Saw a tweet today that was *so* Agnes Tachyon coded, I had to screenshot it to share over here. ENJOY
November 16, 2025 at 5:31 AM
AND I got her epithet, holy shit.

Her skills are kind of fucked (she runs in lots of Medium races in her career, and then her Mile aptitude upgraded to S after I bought Medium-only skills) but I'm slapping her on my PvP team.
November 15, 2025 at 10:27 AM
MY FIRST RUN?!
November 15, 2025 at 10:27 AM
Huh, that's not Rice Shower...
November 13, 2025 at 3:19 AM
I guess I just needed to complain. Also this run wasn't even GOOD.
