Saitou Shinji was fired after being revealed as a scumbag rapist. And this after being involved in a major scandal last year for cheating on his wife, a scandal that he just barely recovered from.

Yeah... all the Umamusume posts featuring him with Jungle Pocket or Shima are now Harsher in Hindsight. Same goes for his appearance in the Umamusume: Beginning of a New Era animated film.

(Okay, alleged rapist. He pretty much admitted to the allegations though. But think his defense is now running with the idea that it was consented or something. At least that's what his wife insinuates. Ironically his wife that he cheated on is now running damage control for him on social media. Either way, still a scumbag.)

    I'm honestly low key concerned that Beginning of a New Era would be given the Phantom Blood treatment and become lost media thanks to the scandal... Especially the theatrical cut which I'm sure would get edited out.
    Complete with an entry in LMW a few years from now, as well as detailed video essays about how BoNE became lost media by the likes of blameitonjorge, ShaiiValley, Sakura Stardust, or THEつぶろ in Japan to boot.

    I edited the wiki page earlier to touch on its availability, but to further elaborate: there's a 2007 movie adaptation of Phantom Blood which was far less well received than the David Production version from a few years later. As if that wasn't bad enough, the OVA version of the Stardust Crusaders landed in a controversy of its own involving the Quran that led to the OVA being pulled from circulation, dragging that movie down in to Lost Media status as it never was given a home media release.

    Good luck since the Phantom Blood movie is one of the the most coveted lost media out there that Shueisha likely locked up in their vaults till the end of time. Only bits of it surfaced but not the full movie.

    Thank goodness they don't realistically depict this real-world aspect amongst the horse girls in the anime... ;_;

    Yeah, I'm glad the worst we get is them getting injured and such, as long as it's not anything life-threatening.

    it doesn't mean it doesn't hit like a truck when we get to that point though... e.g. Sprinter Stakes with K.S.Miracle

    aside from that... May Doto-san live long.

    For context to non Umamusume/horse fans:
    IRL mostly horse that close to Doto in game already dead except urara

    I think the saddest part here is that the right half didn't even make it past the 2000s, let alone the Reiwa era or 2021 when Umamusume the game released.
