Overseas Umamusume: Pretty Derby fans can now send viral racehorse Haru Urara gifts

by

Fans of Umamusume: Pretty Derby from abroad can now express their affection for the popular character Haru Urara by sending her presents.

Over two and a half decades since her last race, Haru Urara, a Japanese horse who never managed to secure a victory in any race, is captivating people globally through Umamusume: Pretty Derby, an animated mobile game that transforms actual racehorses into cute anime characters.

In the game, she’s depicted as a cheerful yet hard-working underdog, intentionally given weaker stats that make her challenging to triumph with. Despite this, enthusiasts haven’t shied away from attempting to win with her, and it’s one of the factors contributing to her popularity on a global scale.

To date, her resurgence in popularity has ignited a tide of heartfelt tributes and emotional fan posts from admirers abroad, with some vowing to secure a victory for her at any expense. Yet, supporters of Haru who reside outside Japan can now express their backing for the retired racehorse by sending her a scrumptious gift instead.

Haru Urara fans can now send her gifts

A Japanese merchant currently provides a unique shipping option for devoted Umamusume fans worldwide, enabling them to mail a package filled with ryegrass straight to Haru Urara. The cost of each present is approximately 6,000 yen or about $40 USD, which includes delivery charges.

There’s also an option available for a 2,500 yen ($17 USD) contribution from individuals who prefer making smaller, anonymous donations. A machine-translated analysis of the website suggests that each box contains approximately 5 kilograms (about 11 lbs) of fresh grass, which is sufficient to feed Haru Urara for two meals.

To aid Haru Urara, you can arrange for a fresh shipment of premium ryegrass through a specialized delivery service. This refrigerated, appetizing grass (not hay), priced at 6,000 JP yen inclusive of shipping costs, will be delivered right to Haru Urara’s doorstep.

Additionally, it’s worth mentioning that the site restricts daily deliveries to prevent overindulgence and ensure that Haru doesn’t turn every day into an all-you-can-eat grass buffet, even though she might deserve it.

At the farm where Haru Urara currently resides, they have recently expressed gratitude to global fans for their heartfelt encouragement. Their message reads: “Haru Urara is thriving, to be honest, she appears to be in better health and has more vitality than I do myself!

Despite never securing a victory in her five-year racing career, this endearing horse remains adored and is now garnering increased interest from abroad. As a result, she’ll get to enjoy the high-quality pasture she truly deserves.
