Umamusume

Umamusume (Equus Umamusume Caballus) are humanoid beings with horse-like ears and tails. They inherit the names, souls, and some characteristics of racehorses from our world. In the world of Umamusume, Umamusume completely replace the existence of horses throughout history. Some equestrian terminology, such as "filly", still exist in this world, but other colloquial phrases, such as the English "horsing around", do not exist.

Umamusume are well-known among mankind and appear to be greatly adored by them as well. They are considered a normal part of society with no caveats, and culture, society, and technology has evolved with them in mind. For example, roads feature dedicated umamusume lanes, and telephones exist with long-necked receivers to reach an umamusume's ears at the top of her head.

Characteristics[]

Horse-Like Features[]

Every Umamusume has the ears of a horse, rather than humanoid ears. These ears are coated with short, fine fur. They also have tails of long hair. Both of these features tend to be the same coloration as an Umamusume's head hair.

Enhanced Strength and Speed[]

Umamusume have legs that are structured similarly to humans', but contain considerably more power. This gives them a "superhuman running ability", and allows them to run at speeds of up to 70 miles per hour and kick with incredible force. According to Agnes Tachyon, the muscles of an Umamusume are inexplicably strong, despite generally having low mass. She also states that the speed of an Umamusume is "almost unrivalled in the natural world."

Unisexuality[]

All Umamusume are born female, and there are no male members of the species. This makes Umamusume a unisexual species. Umamusume do appear to give mammalian birth to other Umamusume, but the species' exact method of reproduction is unknown.
