What's if it's actually a dark deconstruction of idol games, like the Madoka of idol games because they explore the consequences of an idol horse girl breaking their leg with shit like the anime girl GLUE FACTORY?

Somehow doubt that, it isn't FATALPULSE or NITRO+ doing this one.

@51 I feel like we need pictures of people using glue to draw moeblobs. It's the natural evolution.

Ashes to ashes, glue to glue.

We could very easily get into a philosophical debate over how much we should treat horse-girls like the animals they are based off of. I don't think they deserve such a cruel fate, but hey, Humans Are Bastards.note

After glimpsing the video, I'm sure at least part of the fetish appeal is for girls in track uniforms.

@54 You forgot Pragmatic Villainy there.

In all seriousness, I strongly suspect that the game won't go into some of the Fridge Horror aspects like breeding or how horses with broken legs are often euthanized. Beyond being too fiddly, that's a level of implication that I think would alienate a large number of fans.

That said, the fan works based off of this? Anything goes. Anything.

Like I said, the likes of Fatalpulse and Quizlax would have a field day with this franchise.

I am wondering right now, how much horsepower do they have and can they be trained to pull carts.

Horses generally have an average output of 1 horsepower(duh), and a peak power of 14.9 hp.

Normal humans can produce about 1.2 hp for a short time(like running), trained athletes (which these girls would be compared to.) can manage up to about 2.5 hp briefly. Average horsepower of people, 0.1-0.3 hp.

I'd say these girls would lean towards the human side of power output.

On a side note, Olympic sprinter Usain Bolt put out an average of 11.4 hp while sprinting.

[up]Just noticed that last part... Horse-girl rickshaws FTW!

Not only rickshaws, I already imagined a heavy draft horse girl... my goodness. Maybe she would require special training or feeding with steroids, if this is how they roll and if this world has other uses for horse girls aside of racing.

Oh, I hadn't even thought of the implications outside of ones specific to horse racing. Man, that brings the All Girls Like Ponies trope to a whole different level.

@Ajoura: Anybody read Silver Spoon can attest that heavy draft horses, in fact, are cool. Though to be fair, they might rather go with Ainu's ponies insteas.

...You know, if Hiromu Arakawa get involved in merchandising, this will sold like hotcakes. To non-otakus. Of course, it's not Arakawa to not mention little tidbits about racing horses, tidbits in Real Life....

@Ace Of Scarabs: Quzilax usually dabbles in more mundane things, though. Shiruka Bakaudon or Uzita Waiga, in other hand....

(And if you like your sanity and nice sleep, don't use Google. Don't.)

(And don't ask why I know that)

Nobody argues that draft horses are cool. But Silver Spoon's horse was male, and here are we talking about horse girls. Draft horse girls would not be as moe as non-draft ones. Yet, who knows, maybe she would not look like a heavyweight (no moe), and more like a warrior-type, like Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou's Centorea.

Of course there probably are horse-boys as well, unless there are only horse-girls, in which case, Unfortunate Implications, away! cool

@RH: There was also a really depressing one done by Shindo L that covered Cow girls (translated by 5am).

This will end up being an anime at some point. There's enough characters to fill one season at least. What the story will be, apart from lots of cute horse girls getting ready to run round a track and then running round the track, is probably a different story.

We can probably expect various ecchi hijinks and yuri undertones. Also they go to a beach and a hot spring at different points.
