Umamusume: Pretty Derby – Beginning of a New Era centers on Jungle Pocket, affectionately known as “Pokke,” a spirited and free-spirited Umamusume who has already demonstrated her dominance in freestyle racing. After witnessing Fuji Kiseki’s commanding performance in a graded Twinkle Series race, Pokke becomes determined to compete in the prestigious Twinkle Series herself.
Upon enrolling at Tracen Academy, the Umamusume training school, Pokke comes under the mentorship of Tanabe, a seasoned trainer who previously helped cultivate Fuji Kiseki’s talent.

Together, they aim to conquer the Triple Crown series – three races that may only be challenged once in a lifetime. Awaiting them are formidable rivals from Pokke’s own generation, competitors whose abilities may even surpass her own.
Among them is Dantsu Flame, whose unmatched diligence and drive to win define her racing style. Manhattan Cafe pursues the shadowy silhouette of a mysterious “friend” visible only to her, while Agnes Tachyon stands out as a brilliant and unconventional mind determined to push the limits of what Umamusume can achieve. These four runners step onto the track prepared to stake their pride, spirit, and very souls on the outcome.
Beyond the finish line of their dramatic clash lies a door waiting to be opened, one that signals the dawn of a new era. As Pokke boldly declares, “It doesn’t matter who stands in my way! I’m gonna be the greatest!”
The animated feature arrives in North American theaters on February 27, distributed by GAGA. Tickets are available through the film’s official website.
