Umamusume: Pretty Derby (Seasons 1–3)

Umamusume: Pretty Derby (2018) is a Japanese anime you can watch online on iFILM, a mix of comedy, drama and sports. In a world close to our own, the great racehorses of the past are reborn as "horse girls" — girls who keep the ears, tails, speed and stamina of champions.

Special Week, a country kid, transfers to Tokyo's Tracen Academy with a promise to her mother: become the best horse girl in Japan. One look at Silence Suzuka tearing down the track and she has a new goal, to run on the same team. What follows is brutal training, real races, and the odd catch that these athletes are also pop idols who sing and perform between heats.

Animated by P.A. Works and built on Cygames' hit franchise, the show tucks a sincere underdog story under all the cuteness — sweat, lost races, and the friendships that survive them. Stream Umamusume: Pretty Derby online on iFILM.
