Saw the uma musume movie. It's a perfect platonic distillation of a sports anime, made by, for, and about deranged freaks (positive). Had a grin on my face continuously for every moment of the first act. And the theatrical subs were absolutely *inspired*; probably the best I've ever seen.

It's kinda crazy how good this movie is; it feels like a gacha game adaptation has no earthly right to be anywhere near this level. But it strips away every layer of complexity and drills down into the very core of sports fiction, through the extremely simple and accessible endeavor of Running Fast.

@rcombs@social.treehouse.systems Shinjidai no Tobira, right? Not the other film, Road to the Top.
