Popular character training mobile game Uma Musume Pretty Derby has officially hit its fourth anniversary! With more Horse Girls joining the roster, the game continues to showcase the exciting world of Japanese horse racing to a wider audience. And today (June 27), the devs dropped a brand-new training scenario, "Welcome to the Deserted Island -DESIGN YOUR ISLAND-," complete with a fresh promotional commercial. Guess who's back? Star jockeys Christophe Lemaire and Yutaka Take! But this time, the ad is even more absurdly hilarious?!
As the title "Welcome to the Deserted Island -DESIGN YOUR ISLAND-" suggests, Trainers (that's you!) and your Horse Girls will be heading to a deserted island. Your mission? Develop and build it up, train your Horse Girls, and compete in races to boost the island's reputation. The goal is to transform a barren wasteland into the ultimate Horse Girl paradise!
To hype up the new scenario, the official team released a new commercial. It features Christophe Lemaire playing a castaway, roughing it on a deserted island. After some time, he successfully develops it into a perfect island, complete with a gigantic "Golden Yutaka Take Statue"!
This isn't the first time these two legends have teamed up for the game, but who knew they'd get even better at promotions? Yutaka Take, especially, going full-on gold suit? Seriously, try not to crack a smile!
The official tweet, of course, blew up with fans sharing their thoughts and hilarious comments. Some wondered if Lemaire's upcoming three-week break in July meant he was actually off to a deserted island. Others helpfully reminded everyone that the guy rocking the full gold outfit was the jockey who recently won the Takarazuka Kinen (Yutaka Take rode Meisho Tabaru to victory in the Takarazuka Kinen on June 15). These two are seriously having a blast with these promos!
